ThU performaneo of the Oiegun, »ay« the American Miwhlnlat, In an edltoilnlon her recent remarkable trip from Llveipool to this city, Is likely to put other line* on theli mettle to do Ukev. lie, Several new steam¬ ers are building'from which high speed Is expected, and crossing the oiean In elxdnys nmy soon become a common font This will be done by enormous expenditure, of con), which will nntbilng propn reiuin« except in tlieutse of lilgli-pnkl passenger business. This will probably, in a few jea's.mnke pnasenget and freight steamers as tepainta nnd distinct, on the Atlantic, as the two kinds o'f tains now are on the in Iroml. belli Green, the veteran pisciculturist, thus prescribes for the Increase of the num¬ ber of shad. The flshviles at Hnlyoke, on the Connecticut river, he says, should be hired In the interestof artificial propagation. Then there should be two close days In iuc- cession In each week, In which notu net nhould be allowed In tlief- river anywhere. The fish caught tor spawn should bo on,tiftht only in the night, because when- slmd are- ripe they do not tra\el In the daytime. 'J. hen when therlsh are caught, only those that are "ripe" should be taken and the rest turned loose, to be caught jitfiiln at the proper time. In this way he would hatch about 100,000, 000 shad a year, and mnke nioro shad than have ever been seen. T he process of artl- , flclnl hatLhlng Is one for all time, and with Ash enough to furnish spawn, there should never be a scarolty ol shad. THE STEAMER'FLOWER CITY.
