The Difficulties about the Fisheries
The Cod-ti-heries of die north-east coam of Am
erica, have been,'at different periods Fillet/ the me
rattier', a source of much bitterness of feeling be
tween the fishermen of the two nations, (England
Arnetica,) as wed as the subject of much di
plomatic disputation and national disquietude.
By a new consiluction of the ILA article of the
convention of 1818, the B. itidt Ministry, it f eemg,
flow seek• to esclude American ft•hermen Iron: all
the fisheries on - the'cost, which yields anythi-g like
rennmeration.
They clsim—aiidthe careless wording of this ar ,
tide wilt bear the .construction—that Ambrican
fishermen most nog come within three milesbt any
chord, draw.r from one cape, promontory or head
land to another, throng r the center, irr any wirer
point of said chord, may be a hundred mites from
the shore. This arbitrary construct:nu has long been
contended for by the British colonial fisherman ; but
n has never before now, been encouraged, or lis.
toned to by the home government. The Tory Min
i.try, now in power, have !t-eided to .put that con.
'unction in tome immediately, although they have
practically conceded the right of American li-lrer.
men, to take fish three miles from any such shore,
for thirty-flour years. And this enforcement is al
tempted without a word of notification in our govern
ment. The first intimation of such determination
being a marine force, sent to those fishing wounds,
with order to seize ail American- fishing vessels
found wfthrn the claimed limits. This in a case so
iMpOrISUit, is a btile,too unceremonious to be
submitted to by the people of this country, however
;t may affect the stomachs of !ha IrTPEC/11 adminis
tration.
What Mr Waraccrt will recommend to the t're
'Latent, remains to be seen. lie says that he does
not agree that this-constrUction of the conventim is
la accordance with the Miention of thacuns:ructing•
parties, and thinks it may endanger the peace of
the two countries. We think so too. The fuller
.es furnish business and mean: of support for a very
tiameroat class of the people of New &Oa:id--
They ma a peculiarly robust, enterprrsing and
people and they will not submit to have the - e
rightir which they Rielly deem common to the whole
human family taken friim tent by the myt m Onus.
of Madame Balt, without a tussle. They have fi-h
-ed for cod, and caught then), and made chowder of
them, on all the American tisbirig grounds, from
the first Kettle:Wein of thiS country- to the present
day; ana ttey will continue so to do n by some
meant or other, as long as a cod or a haddock wags
hit tail on the American coast. This is as fixed as
fate; ari2 if the English will tight übout it, wny
they must fight, that'B
It is greatly to be regretted that a case so omin
ous of a collision between the two nations, should
have occurred With DANIEL WEI:KIER at the head
a the State department. indeed, it may well be
doubted whether the hlinistry would have
ventured to take a step so boldly defiant and ag
greseie, had they not calculated on impunity from
that circumstance. They very well know what
they have heretofore done with us, with the. same
Daniel at the head of the State department. They
remember his bombastic flourish about taking mil-
itary possession of the disputed territory ; on the 4th
of July ; and they remember the resuli.of the diplo
matio visit of Lord America - I . ON. They also remem•
bes the visit of Ms. ‘VEDSTEII to England, in 1839,
the object of that visa, the contract made by him,
its min-fulfillment on his part, and his readiness to
give them half of the State of Maine as a compro
mise, for the time being._ For ought we can know
there yet may :amain a heavy balance: Am.other
money monarch may come to defnand the other half
of Maine,'llie exclusive right to the fisheries, or any
thing else they may take fancy to. What securi
ty have we, whist that 111811 remains at the head of
the Suite affairs, that the rights and interest of the
nation will not be sacrificed to British rapacity t ft
