This, however, is but a small portion of the oyster trafe of Virginia. ffgy N. B.

' But, sirs, they are here.— They come hero and ask for vitality under a ’{gulsa which even cunning Legislators can hot Bee through. ■ They thr not claim to want" pow ers of issue, but they actually want privileges of pawn-broklng on a gigantic scale. One. of these is called'the, “ American Improvement & Loan Company,’’with a capital of §500,000, to go into operation vfhen ten per cent on each Share is paid in.' Among other things the Co. wants to do, is “to make loans of money and icredit” “ and* emphatically to hold on deposit and in trust estate real and personal.” Another is the “ Indian and American Commercial Com pany'," with A cap it nil of $5,000,000, which asks -for pawn-broking powers on a gigantic scale.— ‘Such mammoth establishments credit expand, ‘which is the only thing they have to lend, but never make money plentier. They do not ask powers to loan at more than legal’ rates, but under the new usury {law, or rather the repeal of the old law, arid the charges for storage of collateral?, they could so. entrench themselves as to grind the life-blood out of the needy with ten I’old morc force than the ordinary Jew Pawn- brokers. On Friday Inst, you will observe, Mr Coffey, read in place & bill td prevent the destruction of trout in Blair County, which it is to be hoped will become & law. Twelve years ago the en thusiastic disciples of Isaac "Walton, could whip a half-a-milo of any stream in the country — Cnjoy the kceiiest sport extant, und return home with a basket full of trout. Now, alas! it is work and not amusement to take them. Their rapid extinction is not merely owing to the set tling and opening of ;thc country, but it is the villainioiis practice of luring them from their haunts wUli hook mid worm at all seasons.— Half-a-dozen trput fishes a day, and twice, as many on Sunday , in'a stream, during the sea son,.would in time extinguish, them,.but not so rapidly 03 do the fish-hawks, who take them in the spawning season, when, instead of taking one trout, they often take a hundred in embri/o. The bill provides against this by making it a misdemeanor for any person to take trout out of any of the running streams in Blair county, between the 6th day. of July and the Ist day of March, punishable tiy a fine-of $lO and impris onment in the county jail for a term of hot less than thirty days. It remains for the interested to carry its provisions into effect, if it becomes 1 ' a law. The Legislative Record printing is a hydra headed monster. No so.oner is one of its heads cut off in the Senate, than another even more formidable than Us predecessor springs up again in the House, Ido not see that the steal—l beg pardon—profits; of this job arc so great ns to require an entire session's Legislation upon it. lam very much mistaken if the loss of time consumed ia debating the question has not al ready cost the State a trifle more than the pub lication o: at least two Records. Yestcrrlay the House brought the Senate another Res olution having for'its object exactly what its predecessor, which! \was killed in the Senate on Tuesday Inst, hdd. Before it could be acted uponAhowcvcr, the hour of adjournment ar rived,' To-Juj', after the- regular orders of the day were gortc through with, the fame subject was continued with variations in the shape of a de bate of a very spicy nature. The resolution re scinding the contract fell by a tie vote, after which .a resolution was adopted to appoint a committee to act m conjunction with a similar committee of the House and to contract for the printing and publishing of a daily Legislative Record. ; : The Committee in the Cambria contested elec tion case has ended its labors and decided in favor of Proudfoot. No report has yet been njnde, and it is expected that a minority report will follow upon the heels of that made by the majority. ; s ■ C. M. Douavan, convicted in the Quarter Ses sions of ah. assault and battery upon J. M.

This is certainly a very severe sentence, ns the conviction was only for simple assault and; battery, and Church was so little injured ns to be able to appear in his seat next day after the occurrence. / Nothing of any :importance to-day in either Uousc. In the Senate numerous petitions for appropriations to ; the contemplated monument were presented, a few trifling bills in place were read.
