FISH SEAsoN.-The fish season has been a
successful one as far as the handling and
catch are concerned. Cooler and more
favorable weather could not have been
made to order" While the run of herring
has been large, shad have been very scarce
and higher. This is said to be entirely due
in the river, which turn back the hsh, and
to the immense number of weirs and pets
prevent their reaching fresh water to spawn.
Some legislation is needed on this point or
in few years we shall have no shad. The
latest invention is galvanized wire net.

A VOTE ON ScHooLs.-At the next cleo
ton in Alexandria county the voters will
decide upon the district levy to be raade
ior the public schools. Owing to the large
number of colored people that were brought
hy the Fteedmeu's bureau and settled at
Arlington during the war, special authority
has been required to give the voters of Alex
andria county the right to lay schoo! tax
more than double that allowed to be laid in
any other county OF the State. The law
declares that the district school tax shall
not exceed twenty cents on the 800 upon
the taxable value of the property in the
district; provided, however, that in the
county OF Alexandria, if three fourths of
those voting on the question vote affirm
atively, any school district may impose on
itself a tax not exceeding fifty cents on the
SlOO."- Ever since the establishment OF the
school system a heavy school tax has been
voted by three. fourths vote, and similar
vote will doubtless impose like tax at the
coming election.

CONSIDERATION OF AN ALTAR.-The high
altar at St. Mary's Church, having been
taken down and rebuilt at greater eleva
ton, was consecrated this morning by the
Right Rev., The Bishop of Richmond. The
ceremony, which was an elaborate and SOL
emn one, began little before and was
not concluded until about quarter after 8.
After the 10 o'clock Mass, Bishop Keane
preached beautiful and instructive sermon
on the Gospel of the day, the last words of
our Lord to his Disciples. He gave as an
illustration the celebrated picture of the
TRANSPORTATION of Christ by Raphael, and
