The good ship Bonus will apparently
 carry any kind of freght-sales tax, or light
 wines and beer, protection for the Alaska
 fisheries, if you should happen to be inter-
 ested in that particular thing-(Ne York
 Post.)
 Unless there is a change in the method of admin serng Alaskan fisheries, it will take something more subst than any Bonus vessel yet launched by the Sixty-Seventh Congress to restore them to any thing like their former healthy state. Under presen methods even a bonus could hardly prevent then from succumbing the evil effects of mal-admns tration.
