The I'Wiitii's of Virtflnln.
The high prices of shad and herring, con
sequent upon the vastly increased demand
;ind failing supply, is directing the atten
tion of the property owners of Eastern
Virginia to the vast importance of protect
ing and fostering this source of wealth.
All parties interested in the fisheries, inclu
ding not only the shore owners, but also
'-illers and renters of fishing shores, should
meet at an early day to consider the whole
subject aud recommend to the next legis
lature a definite plan of action. Prof.
1 !»ird, the United States fish commissioner,
on behalf of the general government, has
bogun the work of restocking the rivers
with fish. Seth Green, with his assistants,
will soon bo here to introduce millions of
young shad into the waters of the upper
Potomac. These fish will in due time re
turn, having grown to eatable size in the
rich pastures of the briny deep. An op
portunity will thus be afforded to learn
the mode of hatching and after-treatment
nf the fish spawn, and it is to be hoped
that as many as possible of our fishermen
will improve it.
Every young fish hatched in our
creeks, which survives and goes out to sea,
seeks to return to the spot where it first be
gan its life at each spawning season.
When it has grown to maturity it goes
back to deposit its own spawn in turn.
Thus the permanence of the supply is pro
vided for • at every fishing shore along the
principal streams. Taking advantage of this
natural law, it is possible for man to aid
materially in the propagation and multipli
cation of the valuable fishes which inhabit
the rivers or ascend them annually to de
posit their spawn.
I n natural spawning vast quantities of
the spawn are destroyed before hatching.
Another large portion are eaten up by vo
racious fishes just after emerging from the
egg. At times the supply of food at the
hatching grounds is insufficient while the
young fish are too feeble to move far to
seek it. These conditions may bo so mod
ified by human aid as to save a vastly in
creased proportion of the young fish, and
secure their safe passage to the ocean,
where they find secure feeding grounds, es
pecially adapted by temperature, d«pth
and other conditions, to foster their health
ful growth.
The certainty of their return justifies the
necessary outlay, and enables tho fisherman
to rely with certainty upon the reward of
his labor. Ho plants the roc of the fish in
the water as he plants corn in the ground,
lie tends and cares for it till the young are
well grown, and commits them to the waters
with unshaken confidence in a sure return.
The chief difference between this and the
labors of the agriculturalist is, that
whereas one farmer may raise a good crop
of corn or wheat without the aid of his
neighbor, the crop ot fish requires co
operation among all those engaged in fish
ing. Wherever a net is put in the water
to take out fish, then as union ripe fish
spawn as possible should be annually
planted. This would not only restore the
old supply, but tend to increase it so as to
keep up with the steadily growing demand.
The whole nation is interested in maintain
ing this source of cheap and nutritious
food.
The incidental value of the fish offal
for manure is also no small part of the in
come of the fishing shores. This product
may be Increased with the marketable fish
and by the same means. The fertility of
the worn lands of Eastern Virginia may be
restored by this means. The marl, muck
and fish offal, which the tide-water region
furnishes enables the farmer to command
unl'u.ited means of improving his soils.
Thus nature has provided for repairing
the waste which the land suffers by the
washing of its organic products Into the sea,
while she furnishes an abundance of the
choicest and most nutricious food fresh
from the ocean depths. Only reasonable
care and forethought is required to make
the supply as reliable as that derived from
the land. Iv Europe fish culture has be
come an established -industry, attended
with sure returns. With general co-opera
tion, this pursuit may be far more widely
profitable here. We trust that the present
opportunity will be improved to witness
the experiments of Seth Green, and that
it will be made the starting point of a wel 1
directod and persistent effort to fill our
streams to their utmost feeding capacity
with valuable fish.
Hullo too Fur.
It is asserted that all coopers who d<>
not belong to the guild of the trade are to
have their business crushed out by order
of tho " Grand Master of the Union,"
who lives at Cleveland, Ohio. Accordingly,
the New York coopers have struck in a
body and refuse to work for any one who
uses barrels made in New England. The
ground of complaint against the non-un
ion coopers is, that they make more bar
rels for less money than tfio members of
the trades union. Last spring, the New
York coopers began a similar strike, in
which there was great disturbance to the
business of the city, and several brutal
assaults made ou non-unionists. Our sym
pathies are keenly alive to all such com
plaints as are reasonably urged by trades
unions against the oppressions of capital;
an 1 we would be the last person in the
over their legitimate interests. But when
it comes to waging a sectional war
against any branch of the laboring craft,
like the non-union coopers of New Eng
land, it is resorting to a species of oppres
sion and outrage which will not be tolerated
by our people. In a free country, every
man clearly has the right to work for whom
he pleases and at such wages as lie pleases
to take. How quickly would these same
-nen resent the efforts made by others,
non-union coopers lor instance, to prevent
the employment of any and every man
connected with their unions, and to put a
public prohibition upon the sale of barrels
made by them or any of them ? It is a
poor rule—not to say an infamous one—
which works only one way.
West Virciinia is an excellent Demo
cratic state. Its new constitution imbodies,
In Us declaration of rights, all the thirty
nine articles of simon-pure Democracy,
which affords the highest possible evidence
that she is still Virginian to the core, if she
has been abscinded and cut off from the
parental stem. In such a state—with such
a constitution—such a parentage, such a
glorious " bill of rights," and such histo
ric splendor playing around its heraldic
escutcheon—what but tho best government
in the wide civilized world should bo seen,
gloried in, aud admired ? But, alas, in mu
tation of these evil times and more evil
prccedot.fci, she has a small gangrenous
war on her hands which threatens destruc
tion to the whole body politic.
The legislature has got at loggerheads
with the governor, and the governor with
the legislature, in respect to the new officers
for the various public institutions of the
state. These officers were directed to take
possession on Ist of May, but when some
of them appeared at the penitentiary on
the day named they found the superintend
ent of that institution entrenched and pre
pared to defend himself, lie had received
orders from Governor Jacobs to shoot any
man who attempted to meddle with his bu
siness, and he proposed to execute the or
der to the letter. The disappointed officials
withdrew for consideration, at which point
the-report stops. Is it possible that a "Lou
isiana Muddle" can afflict such an exem
plary Democratic state as West Virginia ?
In the name of the resolutions of '98, let
Democracy, and its benign stars, forbid !
" Is Mr. Beecher othordox?" anxiously
asks a correspondent of The Old School
Presbyterian. Not dangerously so, we
hope. He manages, at all events, to throw
out a great many new and splendid ideas
as well as practical truths ; and thty are
just as gooa, and just as applicable to the
condition of things to-day, as if they were
covered with the dust of centuries.
The worst that can be said of
Mr. Beecher is, that, when he
"goes" for a new truth, he is not
at all frightened if he "flushes up" a whole
bevy of them at a time—his principal aim
in such case being, to bring down the first
bird in the flock, and the one that has the
most attractive plumage. He revels in
beauty, believing that what God has made
beautiful was designed to be seen, scruti
nized and admired, in spite of all the
crusty old dogmas that would put out the
eyesight of the human soul. Mr. Boecher
has a chronic habit of keeping his eyes
open.
The most important feature of the
new railroad law of Illinois, as recently
passed by the legislature of that state, is
the section which directs the railroad com
missioners appointed under it to make out
for each of the railroad companies doing
business in tbe state, a schedule of maxi
mum rates of charges for the transportation
of passengers and freight and cars on each
of such railroads, such schedule being
deemed and taken, in all suits brought
against any such railroad corporation upon
a charge of exacting unreasonable rates,
as prima facie evidence that the rates
named therein are reasonable. But each
railroad, of course, renders itself liable to
the penalties imposed by the act, if it
charges any greater than the maximum
rates thus fixed. •
The World gives currency to the
somewhat startling rumor from "the field
of war," that Captain Jack has divided
his army of fifty men into three divisions ;
the first, under the Captain, is to capture
and hold California ; the second is to sweep
northward aud subdue Oregon, while the
third forces its way over the mountains and
sagebrush and devastates Nevada and Utah.
What further military operations ar<s con
templated by Captain Jack, after this little
programme is carried out, the "wag of the
World" does not so much as make a
guess.
The suggestion that bloodhounds bo
used against the Modocs, as in the wars
with the Seminoles, in Florida, does not
meet with favor at the war department;
while Gen. Sherman regards it a dishonor
able kind of warfare even with the Modocs.
