The Fisheries ImbrOgliO.

Secretary Bayard INDUCES in pleasant
dreams about the settlement of the fishery
question agitating Canada and this coun-
try. The discussion of the matter in Con-
gress disturbed him for day or two, but
he soon relapsed, under the mesmeric in
fluence OF the British minister, into his
quiescent and happy frame of mind.
In the meantime our fishermen are re-
ported to be meeting with trouble in Cana
dian ports, with prospect of meeting
more and greater trouble IN the future.
The reports may be exaggerated accounts
of the real occurrences, but it is altogeth
err probable that there is not so much
smoke without some fire.
1t is to be regretted that the State
department is not in stronger hands and
under the direction of wiser heads
Great Britain is bully. She will buster
and brighten if she can. But she has a
wholesome respect for pluck. and when
she finds government ready to fight for
its rights at moments notice, she is
much more concilatory and reasonable
than when she has towards to deal with
If Secretary Bayard desires to get alon g
easily with the Canadians he had better
be prompt and vigorous to take care OF
the interests of our fishermen
