NOTE.-The mackerel licenses have not been issued separately since 1867, when a general fishing license was provided to replace cod and mackerel fisheries. The following table has been prepared from the annual report of the Bureau of Statistics of the Treasury Department, and is based on the custom-house returns. Attention may be called to the importation, duty free, of 109,737,420 pounds of fresh fish, valued at $3,242,566. Nearly all of this came from Canada under the treaty of Washington. The exports have constantly increased in quantity and value, due, doubtless, in some degree, to the successful participation of the United States in the international fishery exhibitions held in Europe.
