The armadill0 Is Oiten caught here, and,
when nfoast6d Ia the shell Is fockouod q
delicious article Of food, The buffalo, which
once rOamed In vast herds over these pralriea,
have been driven far into the mountain ran !.
ges for upwards Of a century past. The Wild
ssttle have, in some degree, taken their place,
and are no bad representatives, q these ani-
NAL ''inhabilants 81 The plains. These "wlld
cattle" aFe large, fat symmetrically formed,
and with their long tapering, polished horns,
lofty heads, and elastic steps, look as II those
bundles pastures were ar their own, The
noble maSfqags alone can compete with them
for rightof ownership. Both are worthy Of
it, in the absenceof man, their common mas
ter and tyFant. The oxen Of this region are
among the finest in the world. They are pro-
digiously large, stately looking beasts, moving
quickl !, and possessing extraordinary strength.
They are spirited, but docile, and without q
handful oil food except the grass they crop at
night. they perform wonderful service. They
are chiefly driven BY Mexieans, and are worked
in the primitive mood, by having their yokes
fastened to their horns.
The fish in the Rio Grande and tributary
waters, are few in variety, and OF no great
value. They consist Of two or three kind Of cat
fish, white and yellow perch, buffalo .tlsh, q
large coarse grained fish, but tolerably good
for use, aud a curious species Of shrimp, par
ticipating apparently, 0E the characteristics Of
the shrimp and lobster. In form they partial
| IL resemble both, aud sometimes are caught
weighing half a pound. When cooked and
dressed inthe style Of cooking and dressing
Holsters. they are a very excellent dish. All
these waters are literally swarning with sew
eral kinds Of very superior tarHPin. These
fish in the Gulf OF Bf5zi5o, about this isvieinity,
and in the bayous, and in Lagara Madre, a
vast shoal Of water, almost an inland sea, are
ofnearly every variety, and Of the best quality.
As fishing ground for sportsmen It is not tob
surpassed We catch here red fish Of all si-
zes, from one pound to eighty pounds in
weight trout averaging about SIX pounds,
sheep head, Jewish, whiting, drum-fish, cat
! fish, ea-eels, sometimes nine feet in length,
but fine and tender, and numberless other
sorts. OF the shell-fish first, there are
abundance Of green turtle, occasionally seven
hundred pounds in weight, many OF which
are shipped to New Orleans and elsewhere
The Lagura Madre seems to be the very par
adise Of these delicious monsters. Then we
have plenty Of excellent oysters, crabs, lob
sters, &C., &c., Enough, indeed, Of all sea-
fish, to satisfy the taste Of the nicest gour-
mand who ever smacked his lips over a bowl
Of green turtle or a plate Of fried oysters, at
DelmOnicO's, or any othergout- producing lab
oratOry. We can fish or hunt here at all sea-
sons, with equal comfort and success. Thanks
to our glorious climate for thisl-SpiFH Of
The Times.

The kettle sings for tea,
The cloth q spread, the lamps are light
The hot cakes smoke in napkins white,
And now walt for thee.

than thousand years agO-somewhat earlier

Several numbers Of the paper are preserved

A Clock Mr. J. II. Halves, resident oi
our village, has Just received patent for a
newly invented calendar Clock" which is
beyond all doubt. a very ingenious and con-
venient article. The clock will run for one
year without winding Or setting, and in addi-
tion to its value as a correct time-p its
calender exhibits the month, the day Of the
week, and the year. The machinery Of the
clock is simple and its movements are strict
ly accurate Its designations of the day of
month is surprising. For the months having
but 30 daysit denotes that number, and so for
81 days, while for February itpOints to on
ly %, Except for leap year 49," We un-
derstand the inventor and two other gentle
men of our village, intend Immediately to
enter upon the manufacture Of these clocks
upon large scale. There is money in the
invention, and we are glad our citizens are
entering on the prOject.-AmericGa artisan.

AN ERECT PosITIoN.- A writer on health
very Justly condemns the habit Of louDging.
in which a large number of persons indulge,
as Injurious to health. He says:-'An erect
bodily attitude is fvastly more importance to
health than is easily imagined. Crooked bod
ily positions, maintained for any length Of
time, are always injurious, whether in the sit
ting, standing or lying posture, whether sleep.
ing or walking. To sit with the body lean
ing forward on the stomach or to one side,
with the heels elevated to level with the
head, is not only in bad taste, but exceedingly
detrimental to health. 1t cramp, the stomach,
presses the vital organs, interrupts the free
motion of the chest, and enfeebles the func-
tions Of the abdominal andthoracic organs, and
in fact, unbalance the whole mus ular sys-
tenn Many children become humpbaCked, OF

the head raised on high pillow. When any
person finds it easier to sit or stand, or walk
or sleep in a crooked position than straight
