In a day or two, ometimes in a few hours, and in the forst cases \rithin a week, the patient fill be fairly convalescent. The Mructuro of the lungs being pongy and elastic so as to allow all the lood in the body to pass through them nee in three minutes, enables them lo ear an immense degree of engorgement without disorganization.

Opium Smokers. lleadorj ol Edwin Drocd, will remem ber (lie description of lliu opium-nnoker, us ho is found at tlie cast end. The steady influx oi iLc Chinee into.that quarter has multiplied llio victims to the vice, and tiic houses in which they are accommodated. These latter aro of a veiy low character, and mostly kept by Chinese, to whose countrynicn opium smoking represent* tho indulgence which spirit drinking docs t<» the British seaman. Tho drug, as it is inhaled is an aqueous extract made by fir-'t dissolving tho crude opium in water, and steaming, then carefully boiling. lin purities, like the fragments of tea leaves, sticks, &c., nre skimmed off, till it has the consistency ol tar. The prepared opium represents about twice its own weight oi I lie crude. It is retailed to the 6Rioker*, who keep it in .«mall boxe» made of buf falo's horn. Tho smokers put some opium about the size of a pea into the bowl of r>f his pipe, which is of earthen ware,and Itav ing lighted it at an adjacent lamp, re fîmes on his ?ido, and inhales it in two or Lhrec whiffs, retaining it in his lungs as long as possiblo. So employed, may be seen at any timo, in the neighborhood of Kateliff·· highway, scores of Chinese and Lascars, whoso fallow, corpse like com plexion, bleared eyes and relaxed look, indicate the effects oi their indulgence. The amount these .smokers consume is sometimes surprising. Many ol them ti-e ι quarter of an ounce daily; hume, it in •aid, as much as an ounco.

A. loud call s m ad υ to tho citizens of tho State to ro seraie in enforcing the laws against the vholesale destruction of fish by lawks* ragabonds. · Twenty-one thousand young salmon, lie product of ova placed "in hatching roughs at Norway, were turned into a mall brook emptying into the Andros coggin river, last May. The little li· h Acre visible last summer, and were vciv ively, but they left for the ocean early ast fall, to reappear as grilse and in due •ourse as salmon.

A groat wrong was done the people wlieu the salmon, shad and ale wives wire excluded from our rivers. Fishwajs must bo constructed over every dam and made accessible to every species of migratory Ji-sh ; and the construction of these flshways will not detract airt"ta from the value ot the water power, but will ensure to the prosperity of the mun uincturer, whose interest it is t<> have oheap food. I'rof. llaird, ol the Smith sonian Institute, and Chief of the U. S. I>uieau of Fi-haud Fisheries, expresses the opinion that something ol the old· time experience cau be regaiued, when the streams and rivera of New England « mptying into the ocean were almost blockaded, at certain reasons, by tbo number «>t shad, salmon and ale wives seeking to ascend lor the purpeso <d de· positing their spawn. At that time the deep *ca fisheries of the coast were also ot great extent and value. Now, how· «■ver, things are entirely different. Tim erection c»f impassable dams has prevent ed the upward courso of the lish and they have dwindled away. With their decrease there has been a corresponding diminuation in the numbers of the e»>«I and other deep sea species near coasts ; but it was not until quite recently that tho relationships between the two saritfs . ot phenomena were appreciated a·* those of cause and effect. Halibut can be ic· duced in abundance by over Aching will» tliu hook and line, but experiences in Kuropc and America coincide in the con firmation of the opinion that none of the method* now in vogue for tho capture «>1 II-h of the cod family (including the cod, haddock,podock, hake, lino, etc.,) «an seriously affect their numbers. Fish, females of which deposit from one to two million <>f «-'ggs every year, are not easily exterminated unless they are inter fered with during the spawning season, and as this takes place in tho winter and iu ihe open sen, (the spawn floating near the >urfacu ol the water,) there is no pos sibility of any human interferences with the process. Still, however, tho.«e lish have become comparatively very scarce ou our coast, so that our people aie lorccd lo resort to far distant regions to obtain tho supply which formerly could bo -ecured almost within si^Iit of their homes. It is believed that tlic y tout attraction to the eo*l on the banks, consists in grout part of the immeuse schools of herring or other wandering lisli, that come in from I he region of the Labindor and Newfoundland seas, and»which they fre quently follow close in to the shore, so that they are c i»ily rapture*!. The ana· dromous lislie* of the coait bring the cod and other fishes ol that lamily iu up· on our shores, and it is therefore .» .fe to % a>Mimc that the improvement of t!io line tihhing along the coast <it Maine is clo ly connected nith the increase in num ber ol alcwivcs, shail and salmon; and that, whatever measure· are taken to facilitate tin restoration of these hut mentioned fish, to their,pristine abun I· ance, a ill act, iu an equal rati·», upon the first mentioned in te rot ; this of course, il necessary provision is made for the passage of the fish in thu shape ot fish ways. The report contains two or three sug gestions as to legislation ; and the com missioners, iu summing up, -ay: A liberal expenditure ii^restoring tlie sal mon, shad and alewivcs to rwu the ti|» per and remote tributaries uf all rivers where they were once plenty; a firm, m inly co-operation ol all our population in enforcing our laws for tho preserva tion of all our lishe.·» ; a continuance o! the liberal*, kiudly leeling ol our mill owner·, aud their aid, wlvico and energy in constructing our fishway· ; theee will britig back prosperity and plenty to many a far back country home; will re store ninny a sea coast village now la menting its lost fare tor net or line.
