but unless some assistance be given to the sufferers, it is manifestly a \u201c hard case,\u201d if it be not a positive injustice, to load them with more onerous enactments than formerly, at the moment when they have been deprived of their entire property.The small proprietors must, therefore, either be helped, or it is to be feared they must be allowed to rebuild in wood, with the evil consequences attached to such a course.Under these circumstances, what is required is, to have the other offer at once, so that it may either be accepted and acted upon or the public know what they have got to expect and, if necessary, fall back on the first offer.Of one thing we are quite satisfied, that in spite of the complaints of the exorbitant charges in the government offer, the mass of our fellow citizens who have to rebuild, will greatly regret it, should they have to accept such terms as private capitalists will grant them individually, instead of those upon which the loan is tendered to them.a body.Let this affair, then, bo settled speedily, so that the citizens who have suffered loss may not be kept longer in suspense, but go to work at once with their plans of re-establish-ment.ECTFor Parliamentary Debates.See First Page.Reciprocity\u2014Fishery Question.\u2014The following, from the Washington correspondence of the N.Y.Journal of Commerce, will be found inter-resting :\u2014 Washington, Tuesday, August 24.When the report just made by Mr.Andrews to the Secretary of the Treasury, on the subject of Commercial Intercourse between the U.S.and the British North American Provinces, shall be published, the neglected subject of Reciprocity will be better understood.The subject of the American, French, and British Colonial Fisheries on the British American coasts, will also be made very plain.From the facts and views of this Report, taken together with other documents which have been laid before Congress, can be deduced a very clear course of policy on those subjects by the U.S.A Reciprocity of trade can be established with mutual benefit to both parties, and the the American Fishing interests, now in danger of partial annihilation, can be promoted and established on a secure and permanent basis.But it is well known that Congress will take no step whatever at this session\u2014not even to adopt an advisory resolution, on the subjects of Reciprocity or of the Fisheries.The Executive Government, on the other hand, will not undertake to recommend any specific measure to Congress, and it wholly disclaims any purpose of entering upon any negotiation in regard to these matters.On all sides, therefore\u2014by all branches of the Government of the United States\u2014action on these important subjects is renounced.Meanwhile, the Canadian Parliament, now in session, will proceed to the retaliatory defensive, and protective measures, which they have long past had in view, and thereby the commerce and navigation and railroads and manufactures of the United States will incur much damage.As to the Fisheries, it is now well known that the British Government makes no new claim, nor withdraws any former concession, nor withholds from us any right which we ourselves pretend to claim.It is known officially here, that the British naval force under Admiral Seymour, are under orders to molest no American vessel unless fishing within three miles from the shore.If they see a vessel fishing within the \u201c headland\u201d line, they warn her of the British claim, but do not molest her, unless she goes in near the shore.I have read a report made last January, to the legislature of Nova Scotia, by Commissioners appointed to inquire into the subject of these fisheries ; and it is this report upon which has beeu based all the proceedings against our fishermen.This report shows that the American fishing vessels, to the number of twelve or fifteen hundred, came into the bays and indentations on the coast of Prince Edward Island, into the of Mirimachi, and the bay of Chaleur, following the shoals of mackerel close into the shores, where they catch them with seines, and invariably make full fares.They represent these facts as an interruption of the Colonial fishery business.They say that no mackerel are taken except with seines close to the shores.It is not \u201c headland\u201d question ; nor even a question as to the \u201c three mile line from the shores,\u201d but of one I mile from the shore.The American mackerel fishery will be annihilated totally, by keeping our fishing vessels three miles off from the shores ; and that is exactly what is to be done.This does not interfere with the cod and herring fisheries, which are prosecuted where we have an undisputed right to fish.But the mackerel is the most important of these fisheries.The legislature of Nova Scotia, upon this re-\\ port, transferred the fund which they had granted for fishing bounties to the purpose of fitting out four armed coasters to prevent encroachments of American vessels on the above named coasts ; and they redoubled the vigor and urgency of their complaints to the home government ; which were so far attended to as to elicit the orders of the 26th May.If the United States ever recover this mackerel fishery, it will be by giving for it some equivalent \u2014at least the exemption of British Colonial fish from duty in our ports.At this moment the British Govenment entertains an offer from the Government of Portugal for a limited share in the right to take and cure fish on the eastern coast of Newfoundland.The Portuguese Government offers as an equivalent the admission of British Colonial fish free of duty\u2014whereas the duty is now very exorbitant, and Portugal is one of the markets for the well cured Colonial fish.The completion of the great Railway from Maine to the very centre of the fishing coast, will furnish a great inducement to the United States fishermen to acquire the right of free access to these shores for taking and curing fish.They could then establish there station houses, and winter their vessels there, and cure their fish properly.They would save the time occupied in long and tedious passages ; they could commence the spring fishing much earlier.Now they are shutout of the fishing grounds by ice, in the spring, which obstructs the entrance of the bays, long after the shores are free from ice and the fishing season commenced.They would thus be enabled to make three times as many fares in a year as they do now, besides furnishing better fish.\u2014 Either free trade or non-intercourse between the United States and the British Colonies must be the policy of this Government.At present, it inclines to the latter.The Cod fishery of the United States is on the I decline, and the fish produced are, iu general, im-j properly cured, for the want of such facilities of I drying the fish, as would, by a liberal system of Reciprocity, be secured.None of our fish are fit for the Meditterranean markets, and it is believed that, ere long, the French fishermen and the British colonist will be able to furnish us with their well cured fish, at as low a rate as we get poor fish, notwithstanding the twenty per cent.duty.The French fishermen can bring in their codfish into our ports with a bounty of two dollars a quintal from their government.This system has recently been renewed by the French Government.The report of a Commissioner on the subject to the French Government in 1851, is well worthy of the attention of this Government, showing the growing importance of the French fisheries, and their intimate connection with the prosperity of the military and mercantile marine of France.Boards of Trade Convention.\u2014The following gentlemen have been elected Delegates to repre.LS sent the Hamilton Board of Trade, at the Convention to be held at Quebec, on 1st proximo, ;

but what are these among so many ?Consider that of these twenty-seven several are old members, while there are no less than forty new ones, who, of course, must take the first opportunity to make themselves famous, and you will have some idea of the suffering yet in store for the unhappy Speaker, who is understood to be the person to whom the whole flood of twaddle is addressed.The debate was adjourned at midnight last night, with the understanding that an attempt was to be made to finish on Monday.I doubt greatly the possibility of such a happy consummation.All that can be hoped for is, a safety hereafter, like that which the grocer\u2019s store enjoys from the apprentice, surfeited with his first week\u2019s gormandize on the sugared wares.I should think, however grateful to the palate at first, one week of debates like these would be an overdose.The speech of Mr.Brown last night was an exception to the general dead level.He exposed the utter want of principle, or ordinary truthfulness, in the construction of the new ministry, in an exceedingly telling manner, and the conclusion he drew from it all, that such dirty practices must lead to thel desire for republican safeguards in our govern-/ ment, was a truth that every day\u2019s experience] makes more manifest.\u2014'\u2014- Per Bark ELIZABETH WALKER, Charles Robertson, from Glasgow.\u2014Edmonstone, Allan & Co :\u2014 L ^ Palmer, 19 bxs 1 bale 5 Moffatts, Murrav & co, 4 bxs 2 bales ;
