From Nova Scotia,

l From Nova Scotia.
 l Mir. Charles Chase, of this city, has just returned from fishing trip to Nova Scotia. MT. Chase was absent about two weeks and | reports that Nova Scotia is the paradise of | trout fishermen. He says that his average catch was about fifty pounds of trout a day and bad weather at that. He found 8 strong 1 sentiment there, especially among the com mon people, in favor of annexation to the United States for the reason that although having fine mines of iron and coal and gran ite quarries, they had no market for them, and hence these sources of wealth were not utilized and the country suffered in conse- quence. They had what we consider the poorest kind of flour, but had to pay high for it, tax of B per cent. being required by the English government.
 Trout are as plenty in that region as they were in Maine and the Adirondacks twenty years ago. A party of four New Haven gen tlemen also start on the same trip, leaving this city for Boston on Monday: F. A. filling, the coal dealer, MT. Charles Bristol, MT. Henry Cowen and MT. George Ives of A. Ives & Son, the brick manufacturers of North Haven. They go to Nova Scotia where this government lately paid the English govern ment five and half millions for the privilege of salt water fishing.
