FISH. CULTURE. A conference convened by the National Fish Culture Association of Great Britain and Ireland for the dis- cussion of subjects relating to the culture of fish, was held on Monday in the Conference-hall of the Indian and Colonial Exhibition. In the absence, through illness, of the president, the Marquis of Exeter, the chair was taken by Sir Albert Rollit, M.P. The Marquis of Exeter wrote expressing regret at his inability to be present, and thanking the Prince of Wales for the assistance he had given the association. The Chairman, in his opening address, explained that the association was the outcome of a meeting held at Fishmongers' Hall in December, 1882. It had for its primary object the development of the sea and inland fisheries of Great Britain and Ireland with a view of keeping up, if possible, increasing the food supply of country, and it had received the support of those interested, both theoretically and practically, in fish culture. The site of their principal producing establishment at Iver was remarkable for its adapta- bility to the rearing of fish. He might mention that the association had done much to secure the success of the Fisheries Exhibition, and also to show the necessity for remedial and other measures for the protection of the fisheries of the United Kingdom. Scientific observations were now being made by the association at sea, with the object of acquiring more definite and reliable information concerning the tem- perature of the ocean, together with other important matters upon marine fish life. They were being con- ducted with the co-operation of the Aduiiralty, the Trinity Board, and the Mission to Deep Sea Fisher- men. Grants of fish had been made during the year to various public bodies and angling societies, in order to assist in stocking the Thames, the Lea, the Severn, and the Dee. Personally he thought this was one of the most useful offices of the association, and one which might be most advantageously extended. Among its other operations the association was form- ing an Ichthyological Museum of British and foreign fish. The association deserved the support of the public, for it was for their benefit that it existed. It was the only officially recognised institution of the kind in the country, and it was doing work similar to that which the colonies were doing on a larger scale. Mr. W. Oldham Chambers, F.L.S., the secretary of the society, then read a paper on Carp Culture." He said that the development of fish life depended to some extent upcn the introduction of new specics from abroad, and it was our duty therefore to obtain an exchange, or seek to reintroduce those fish that had become exterminated from our waters. In doing so we could only select such species as would constitute an addition to our food supply, and in so doing we could not deviate from the royal road to the attain- ment of useful purposes and practical results. One of the best species for his purpose was the German carp, which was .superior to our species. In Ger- many and America the carp was extensively culti- vated, but this bad never been attempted in this country because our species was inferior. The culture of the carp was open to all, and could be profitably undertaken by anyone possessed of a little capital. In olden times the ponds used to provide good wholesome food for a large section of the London people, and he suggested that the custom should be revived by the construction of ponds in every district. Considering the present state of depression among farmers such an undertaking would, he belie Yed, act as a remedy in stemming the tide of ruin and disas- ter, He appealed strongly to agriculturists to direct their attention to carp culture, and to convert the many thousands of acres of land which were now partially covered with water into fishponds. He felt sure that they would find it a much more profitable business than the growing of vegetables or fruit. In conclusion, he said that the association would be glad to give assistance and advice to anyone desirous of undertaking fish farming, which would tend to de- velop the resources of the country, relieve the agri- culturist, and provide an economical, nourishing food for all communities. The paper having been briefly discussed, the meet- ing adjourned. On resuming in the afternoon Sir A. Kollifc again took the chair, and a paper was read by the Rev. Mr. Steward, entitled Marine Temperatures and their Influences upon Fish Life." He said the progress of our knowledge of the habits of fish, of the circum- stances which influenced their movements, and of the reason of certain already well-known facts about them, must necessarily be slow, since we were unable to watch them in their haunts. This was specially the case with sea fish, but a good deal of knowledge had already been acquired by the researches and observa- tions of those who had devoted their time to the subject, and much more might be learnt about the habits of fish by intelligent observations on the part of fishermen. The object of the association was to learn some of the habits of sea fish. The circum- stances or influence which ruled their movements were obscured from them. Take the migration of fish for example. About their migration there was no doubt, but the question that puzzled them was, Why do they migrate? From his study of the whole ques- tion he bad come to the conclusion that temperature was an important factor in the regulation of their habits and of their movements. For the further study of the subject it was proposed to establish observing stations on board certain light-vessels adjacent to fish- ing grounds, and such smacks as had careful skippers whose ob ervations would command confidence. Another factor in the movements of fish was the du- ration of rain. This was followed by a paper on The Migration of Fish," by Mr. J. Willis Bund, in which he said his observations went to show that the migration of fish from salt to fresh water and vice versa, were regulated by the atmospheric changes.

When she had finished, Fogg thanked her, and added, sotto voce: I'll never doubt anybody's word again." But, Paul, how can the Spirit be in us and us in the Spirit at the same time ? said the young man to a venerable darkey. Oh, dar's no pussle 'bout dat. It's like dat poker; I puts it in de fire, and it gets red hot. Now, de poker's in de fire, and de fire's in de poker."
