Address, E. Lloyd, Ameri can Map Publisher, 30 Courtland Street New York. Fish Culture in Pinnsylvania. The Harrisbnrg Patriot complains of the inefficiency of the law in reference to stocking the rivers of Pennsylvania with shad and other fish valuable for food. In 1866, the Legislature created the of fice of fish Commissioner, with salary of six dollars a day, and in the same act re quired the constructions of sluices ia the dams on the Susquehanna and its tributa ries for the passage of shad to spawning grounds in the upper waters. After the lapse of four years, the Supreme Court has decided that the section of the law compelling the Pennsylvania Canal Com pany to build sluices in their dams is an constiulional, and consequently the act of the Legislature cannot be carried into ef fect. The law of March, 1865, limited the term of the Commissioner to the en suing December, but the Legislature of 1867 continued the office for one year longer. In 1868 the office was again continued for another year, and a trifling change was made in regard to the enforce ment of the penalties for obstructing streams with dams, and for fishing with seines near sluices. The Legislature of 1869 passed an act continuing the office of Fish Commissioner for three years lon ger. The law therefore now stands in this position, that while the State pays a Commissioner a salary of six dollars a day, there is no way of enforcing . the 1 provj),ioii8 nf the law. It is nrged that, . 8icn the Pennsylvania Canal Company anj otnf.r corpora,;ong cannot be com pelled to undergo the expense of construc ting sluices in their d:uns, the Legislature should be requested to make the requisite appropriations of money to erect ways for the passage of fish to the npper wa ters of the Susquehanna. It ia also con tended that appropriations shonld be made for the payment of water bailiffs, to arrest violators of the law, and that a I small portion of the funds should be de- ' . . , voien to pisciculture, in ine large rivers of other States, fish well adapted for food have been successfully introduced, and it is believed that the same attempt 'should be m.ide in Pennsylvania.
