Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Observations Regarding the Salmon Fishery of Scotland In the lakes, rivers, and seas of Great Britain and her dependent islands, there abounds a rich and choice variety of fish; and the situation of the country, the habits of the people, and the nature of the coasts, are peculiarly favourable for carrying on the fisheries. Accordingly, the fisheries have at all times been considered, not merely as an important source of individual wealth; but even as of much national importance. Great efforts have been made to foster and protect the Herring and White fisheries, more particularly, by bounties, and exemptions from duties, - in short, by a continual watch over their interest. But there is one national fishery, - that of the Salmon, - which, though once, perhaps, in greater favour with the Legislature than any other, has latterly been altogether neglected: while the antequated enactments of a rude age, intended to give it support, unfortunately remain in force, only to injure and depress its best interests. It will be the object of what follows, to direct public attention to the importance of the Salmon Fishery in Scotland, - leaving the fisheries of England and Ireland to those better acquainted with them, - and to point out the necessity of a legislative inquiry, preparatory to an amendment of the laws by which that fishery is regulated.
