Many lnqoirleebev Ing been made of mo ia relation to the right of persons to obstruct the passage of fish up the Susquehanna river, end several petitions having been sent to me, praying for legisla tion on the sabject, I deem it my doty thus pnblicly lo reply to thotn. It is a matter of univorsal regret that so profitable a business at shad-fishing, in which so many of our citi zens were formerly engaged, should meet with to many obstructions and by the de struction of which so much valuable property was depreciated and so many persons de prived of employment; and" any 'means to restore -this trade and afford employment to our citizens will bo a public benefaction. No legislation, however, is needed Mr. Kunkel, one of our former representatives, having provided lor it at tue session of 1851, as will be seen by the following extract from the pamphlet laws of that year, page 714 s Sec. 9. It shall be tbe duty of tbe Susquo hanna canal company to cause to be con structed at the dams erected by them across the river Susquehanna, a sluice for the pas. sage of fish, over which at least ono foot of water shall pass from tbo first day of April to tbe fifteenth dsy of May of each year; the said sluice to extend along the breast of the dam tbe distance of from one hundred and fifty yurds to two hundred yards, in prnpor tion to tbe width of the river at said dams, aud to be constructed at and immediately opposite tbe mala channel from tbo dam down stream, by steps of eighteen inches perpendicular fail, end horizontal platforms at tbe baso of each step of forty feet in width j oi if tttid company shall neglect or refuse to construct said sluices in the manner f.ertin specified for the space of one year after the passage of this act, the said dams shall be deemed a nuisance, and may be abated as other nuisances may be abated according to im laws oj tins Lvinmonwealth One remedy under this section is obvious and easy, Auy person or persons suffering by tbo obstructions in tho river may make information before a justice of the peace, and upon an establishment of the fact in a court of justice, it will be the duty of that eourt to abate tbe "nuisance." It is proper for me to call public attention to this law, inasmuch as it seems to bare gone unnoticed, and many of our citizens are interested and have applied to me, with whom it would bo inconvenient for mo to communicate separately. WM. C. A. LAWRENCE. IlAiiai.snvna, April 16, 1S53. ASSASSINATION OP AMD. J. RODKIGl'E. About a year since we recorded the death of Dr. A. Rodrigue, formerly of Suubury, but moro recently of Hollidaysliurg, who had emigrated to Lccompton city, Kansas, in 185S. We have now to record the death of his eldest son, Andrew J. Hodrigue, by the hands of an assassin, on the 3d iust., at I.ccompton. The deceased was the grandson of Hugh Delias ivq., oi tins piuce. He Was born m the city of Pittsburg, in the fall of 1 835, and had just entered his 23d year. He fell in the dawn of hit man hood, leaving a widowed mother and sisters and brothers to mourn his untimely fate. In the fall of 1855 he emigrated with his father to the city of Lecoinpton, aud at the date of his death was engaged in the pursuit of farming, while at the same lime ho held tbe office of Clerk of the Supreme Court of the Territory of Kansas. He was an able, courteous and efficient officer, as the proceedings of the meeting of the Dar, Chiel Justice I.ecouipte presiding, held on tho Sth of April, in Lccompton, fully testify. The following account of his death we extract from the Lccompton Democrat, of the 8th iiibt : SAD Olll'lUlt.Nlli. "An affair of a sorrowful character occurred in this city ou last Saturday noon which re sulted in the death of ono of our oldest citi zens, and the former Postmaster, Andrew J. KoDniiii'E. It appears that a dilliculty sprung up between the deceused and W. K. Thompson, when the latter stabbed Mr. It. with a pocki-t-knifu in tho side, which pene trated the left lung, causing a mortal wound. Two gccllunieu witnessed tho affray, ono of whom was cut at by Thompson, aud their evidenco was given iu before the coroner's jury. The veidict wa3 iu accordance with tbe fuels, 'That he cupie to bis death from a wound inflicted by Wui. E. Thompson." This biow is deeply felt by the widowed mother, sisters und brothers, also, by tba friends of the deceased, who has been cut down by an untimely death, in tbu primo of, l.l'e, and in the midst of carreer of usefulness. We deeply sympathize with his family iu their irreparable loss. Tbe deceased lived until Wednesday mor ning at 1 o'clock, and during the greater por tion of the timo experienced jiiuch agony. Immediately after tbe deed was perpetrated Thompson left the city, aud although the offi cers of tbe law were iu pursuit of him, made good bis escape, and has has not been heard of since. Tbe funeral took place ouSaturday. He was 23 years of age. A Dangerous Counterfeit.

It appears from tho Indian journals that some slight uotice has been taken of an Italian dis covery, already practically and extensively carried out in France aud Syria, for obtaining silk, al a most moderate cost, direct from tbu the bark of tbo mulberry lice, and for conver ting the bulky rcsiduo after tho sillc has been extricated, into a pulp suited better than most materials for the manufacture of paper. This process bas been secured by patent iu Eng land aud France, and by an imperial firman in Turkey ; and it is said that steps ure about to be adopted for taking advantage of an exten sion of the patent laws in India, to secure tbo right of the process to tho discoverers, and to work it in that couutry. Iu Bengal aloue millions of mulberry plants, which would yield to'js or silk and pulp, ure now next to throw away that is employed as Gre wood, because no other use has hitherto been found Tor thorn. Tbeie is nothing peculiar in the bark of the mulberry tree. It is the cbemicul process in the stomach of tbo silkworm, aod the subse quent fine spinning, that makes the silk. Given these, silk muy be produced from any fibre that can be got of sufficient strength. Some fibres aro btter than ot ers, but ol these the best is not that obtained from the bark of tbo mulberry tree. At present the silkworm is the most experieuced chemist, and the cheapest dresser and sp'.nner of 'lino numbers' yet occupied in the manufacture and spinning ol silk from bore, which il uuds readiest 0! tuo right quality in the leaf of the mulberry tree.
