Us was dredging on Makeiy 's ojeter beds, an i after being forbidden to stop which he refused to do, was fired upon. If our oyster laws will not protect tho people let the Legit- ature do something. Stop tho intro duciion of so many I : 1 1 a , but do some thing. Some of the potties on board vessels arriving in New Heme Wednesday and Thursday say that on their way here thoy passed seventeen cf these trefpiss- ng dredgers. Mr J. S.

Now is the time for business men ta be preparing their exhibits so that they will be able to make creditable ones.

Some oystermen are now advocating tho entire prohibition of dredging oysters, claiming that it ia destructive to tho oyster beds and assort that the failure of the Maryland grounds is due to this cause. Others state that dredg ing the ground extends it and improves the oysters and that longing U slow as oompared with dredgin?. Tho truth is that tha exhaustion of an oyster bed is not, duo to the instruments employed or tho rapidity with which the oysters nro taken, but to the re moval of too v.iany from the same bed. Take tho case of beds in Virginia; they once yielded abundantly, but have now ceased to be productive, though noth ing but tonging has been practiced on them. Oysters are found in some some places at such a depth that tongs will no; reach them and but for dredg- ing they could rot bo utilizad and in other places it is impracticable to me dredges at all. It is suggested that legislation cugbt not to bo directed to the protection of any class cf people but that the legisla tors oughc to keep prominently in their minds that the point to which they are to direct their laws is tho protection, preservation and development of the oyster bedj. What should be impressed is that it is not hi instrument used but the amount of usage that destroys an oyster bed. So far as tho public is concerned it prefers that the beds should remain in a good state and that being obtained, that the cheapest method of catching oysters, whioh cf course lessens the prioe, should ba used. The whole question of tbo laws necessary will oome up in New Berne in a few days at the j lint meeting of tho County Com' miasiohers ot the Oyster Counties and thoy will no doubt devise legislation that will be satisfactory to every one.
