fully matured. and with many varieties 1t Is
the moulting season, and nearly all are IN

seems essential that the taxidermist should

so taken in year, would not amount In the
aggregate to one one thou an!th per cent of
the number killed by animals and birds OF

TAXIDERMIsTs.
The Rill Concerning Them.

Mr. EDITOR Il notice that the Legi-la
tive Committee on Fish and Game, reported
bill calling for the repeal Of chap. 1872, law s
of 1874, and sec. IL, chap. 80 laws Of 1878,
relating to taxidermists and their appoint
ment. While fully concurring in all reason
able legislation for the protection of our
game, " hich is rapidly becoming exterminated
BY the army of sportsmen who annually come
into our State from abroad, 81 do not think
the exigency Of the case demands the repeal
of that section relating to taxidermists. The
main object considered by nearly all interest
ed in our game laws. is to protect our game. -
Very little consideration is given by the
average sportsman to the great variety of
birds not clsssed as "game birds" and it is
not to that class Of men that we are indebted
for our present Law Of protection to our
insectiverous birds. Of which we have some
400 varieties. while for game birds we have,
flour inland" beside the various ducks,
the partridge, woodcock, Wilson snipe and
plover, and possibly few other varieties of
snipe which inhabit our shores and marshes
As general rule, the average sportsman
has no interest in birds beyond the range of
his gun, while with the student Of natural
history, (so far - it pertains 70 birds) the

Our Unjust Fishing treaty.

The Senate joint resolution providing for
the termination of the fishing clauses of the
treaty of Washington which was passed by
the House today, was favorably reported by
the committee on foreign affairs through
Mr.. Rice. The report states that the termi-
nation before May. 1878. is necessary to
avoid the liability of the United States to
pay another compensation to Great Britain
on demand similar to that which led to the
payment of 81, 10000 awarded by the Hall
fax commission. The report states that the
Canadian fisheries are no longer uf special
importance to us; that fishermen would pre-
fer to pay $50 license required for fishing on
Canadian grounds should they want to fish
there rather than be subjected to the vexa
tious conditions of the treaty.

There was an explosion OF dynamite in
the village of Ganshorten Saturday while
the members of the anarchist committee

the explosion is named Cyvoct. lie is a
weaver from Lyons and il is said the French
government demand his extradition.
The Gazette says the majority of the doc
nmeuts which have been seized in connec-
ton with the explosion at Ganshorten are
written in Russian and Italian. They refer
to an international plot and may !, al to the
arrest of Louise Michel and her colleagues.
The reported anarchist documents seized

Parnell then moved his amendment to the
address in reply to the speech from the
throne attacking the executives in Ireland
for administration of the crimes act. The

He explained that there was more prJ,estants
