A SEAL FISHERY MEMORIAL. Mr. Squire presented a memorial from the chamber of commerce of Port Townsend, Wash., setting forth that “the present status of the Bering sea seal fishery works a grievous hardship to our fishermen’ by depriving them of the rights and privileges ‘which they enjoy in the north Atlantic ocean, in which they are encouraged and protected by the government ofthe United Staten.” The chamber asserts ite belief that the waters of the north Pacific ocean and Bering sea and all the pro- ducts to be found in those waters should be as free as the wuters of the north Atiantic. It re- spectfully asks that some action be taken by Congress by which the same laws that are now in operation on the north Atlantic regarding fisheries be extended to the waters of the north Pacific, Bering sea, the Arctic ocean and all waters bordering upon American territory, that the products of the open sea be declared free and open to all, aud that Ameri- can fishermen have the same rights in the waters of the north Pacific as they now enjoy in the north Atlantic ocean Mr. Squire re- marked that the petition was only one of a se- ries of similar ones and that the subject was of great importance. He moved its reference to the committee on foreign relations and it was 60 referred. THE NICARAGUAN CANAL. Mr. Higgins called attention of the commit- tee on foreign relations to a resolution offered by him some time since on the subject of the Nicaragua canal. He desired now to have it referred to that committee. Mr. Morgan said that the committee en_for- eign reiations really considered itself fally in- structed in the matter by the resolutions which he himself had offered. But he was glad that the Senator from Delaware had put the instructions in a specific form to be superadded to the other. The committee was entering on the investigation solely and wholly in the inter- est of the people of the United States—not in the interest of any corporation. Mr. Higgins’ resolution was then referred to the committee on foreign relations. Mr. Stanford introduced a bill, which was re- ferred to the committee on finance, to fix the duty on opium at #52 pound, Mr. Felton introduced a bill to create the California debris commission and to regulate hydraulic mining. Keterred. THE GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE. Mr. Cullom offered a resolution, which was agreed to, instructing the committee on print- ing to ascertain whether a suitable building printing office and to make fw at to Con. gress.

Loxpox, March 8.—Friends of Mrs. Montaga, who is charged with the manslaughter of ber little daughter Mary, aged three years, are sparing no cffort to secure her acquittal, and profess to feel confident, now that the case is removed to Dublin, that sbe will be exonerated.
