The Fishery Question.

We recently gave extracts from representative
American newspapers concerning the fishery
question now pending between this country
and Canada. The st. CroiX, n. b., Courier,
are very diversified, but that many of the fisher
men on the islands of Charlotte are inclined to
think things cannot be worse than they now are.
In other parts of the country different views
are held; for eX pie, the Yarmouth, n. S..
Times, having interviewed a number of persons
interested IN the fisheries. reaches the follow
ing conclusions:
l. We can do without the United States
market better than the yankee fishermen can
do without our fishing privileges.
=. While sale of bait and ice is IA most i'm
portant business to a large portion of our popl-
lation, the privilege of buying the bait and ice
is of vital Importance to the New England
trawling business.
8. The United States has become such poor
market for fish that our fish dealers don't care
much whether they shut out Of it or not
4. The abrogali0n Of the treaty has had no
noticeable effect on the fish business Of tins
Province, and is not likely to change the gener-
al tone OF the fish trade
,. The temporary arrangement is not popu-
lar with any fishermen but those who deal in
bait and ice.
The Courier adds: "We can see no reason
why the fishermen of Charlotte have not as
good reason to be satisfied as their brethren of
Nova Scotia, or any other part of the county.

Rockland has met with good success in re-
funding her bonded indebtedness, as the fol-
lowing statement from the Free Press testifies
THE six per cent. loan has been reduced more
than s330,0o0, and the annual interest account
more than S11 900. which sum is saved to our
people in the reduction of taxes. few years
ago we were paying three per cent. tax. Last
year it was twenty-four mills, and this year we
have reason to believe it will drop to twenty
three mills or less

The New York Herald tells the President
that 'the dirty little brigade of office-seekers

this advice in sitting down on oflice-broker

from all the wouId-be otice-hOlders In Maine he
can afford to retire from politics.

Webb telegraphs from Washington to the

Paymaster Smith of the navy from the begin

been compelled to abandon the charges of col

Hendricks: 1T seems he would have been the

'The ladies of Boston are extremely hand

L,AIOUR QUI RIT.

Love me little and love me long
In the idle theme of silly song;
Love me much for night and day
Is what I say.
Love is fieeting and comes and goes,
Whence and whittier there'sno one Knows
How and why 'twere as hard to guess
Be it no or yes.
Love me as long as love may last;
Love me no more when love is past,
Love me just for day and night
While love is bright.
Kiss when kisses are sweet and new;
What were kissing while lie tnroushs
Love me much till the fancy lily.
Then, love, goodbye.

destrianism in Louisiana, and more
especially in Alexandria, has but
few II any followers, which seems
to be the principal reason why such
contests are never engaged in, either
for fun or money.
The other day, however, in our
own little Town, two respectable
gentlemen, whose names we need
not mention, talked freely on many
subjects and at last "got on" to the
one of walking, and of course a
match was arranged, since which
time the whole burg has been agog
with excitement. By the terms of
the agreement entered into, one of
the two contestants is to walk nine
miles, whilst his adversary walks
SIX, which figured down closely
amounts to mile and a half to the
others one mile-pretty big odds
to say the least.
The time of start is to be made
at u o'clock, (the hottest part of
the day. on the sth of August, each
gentleman to be accompanied by
another who is to see that only a
heel and toe contest is engaged in,
and that no fraud is practiced.-
twenty-five dollars a. side is the
amount wagered, and both gentle
men are in daily training, reducing
their weight, toughening their mus
Giles, and making themselves as
light and buoyant as athletes.
Dumb bells, horizontal bar and ira.
peze acting are gone through with,
to say nothing of the numberless
hand-springs, jump up and, crack

saults that are oftentimes engaged
in, both before and after,meals..
This reporter has seen both par
ties, who are determined to reduce
the record, and can. add that they
they were never looking better,
hence a close contest may be expec-
ted from start to finish.
In our next we shall try and give
an account Of their diet, mode of
procedure and after, and many 9TH
