The OYSTER TRADE.-A writer in the
Monmouth Standard, IN giving history
and statistics of the oyster trade IN the vi
cinity of Keyport, N. j., says:
"There are now engaged in the business
about forty-fve persons as planters, who
employ some ninety hands eight months in
the year, making about one hundred and
thirty i've persons employed IN the business,
independent of those engaged in the freight
ing business, who number about seventy
five-making in all, two hundred and ten.
There are now owned by persons engaged
in the business, and hailing from Keyport,
twenty-sx sloops and schoonets, which are
employed in bringing oysters from the
South, for'planting, and carrying to the
New York market from Keyport; which
vessels, together with skiffs, scows and inn
plemeuts, are valued at $40, 900. The oys-
tiers sold last year 1882 amounted to the
sum of SS5, 900. The amount invested this
year 1883 Is about $780, 900. The amount
of small oysters on the grouuds planted from
Newark Bay, Delaware River, &c., is val;
ued at about $4,000. The amount laid
out this year exceeds the amount of last
year at least fifty per cent. Allowing the
prices to be as good this year as last-and
every one expects bettef-@thee. sales will
reach the sum Of $i27, 900. The amount
of capital employed in the Business is about
100000, viz: $4,000 in vessels, &C.,
and $50, 900 for the planted oysters" :"

The Mercy OF GoD IN 1cE.-A writer
in the Philadelphia Register, is eloquent in
the praise of Ice. Physicians, we believe,
will attest that the article will bring relief
to the diseased stomach when nothing else
can. The writer referred to says:
I'm the Ianguor and exhaustion OF re-
cent illness my mind dwelt much on The
mercy of God in ice. AS it quenched my
painting thirst, as il cooled my burning
brow, / came to the conclusion that to the
sick, 1t was the Queen Of comforts. | re-
ioiced that had outlived the ancient preju.
dice against its use in sickness. | wished
that could write psalm like David in It's
praise. And / thanked the holy children
that in their Benedicite, onlnia opera Dom
ini,' they had remembered Ice % ye ice
and snow bless ye the Lord praise Him
and magnify HIM forever!' then remem'
bered that, to the poor sick, this great com
fort was luxaryHrather than an impossi'
bil;ty. And then 1t occurred to me that, Il
1 were rich, would found in one of oul
great cities an ice-house for the poor sick
As am not, and never expect to be, the
next thing is to suggest 1t to those who are
And if they have felt as have, 0s mercl
of God in ice, they will hasten 10 comrnem
crate their gratitude in providing for those

to drink unto one of these little ones cul
of cold water only, in the name of disci
pie, verify l say unto you he shall in NJ
wise lose his reward" ID"

RUSSIAN EspIoNAGE.-According TO The
Paris correspondent of the Times, the cost
of the espionage i'll the Russian interest In
France for the present year is estimated al
more than 1000, ,000f.; and some of the
persons employed in it, both Russians as
we'll as French, are those whose position
in society one would suppose ought to place
them above such services. One titled per.
soh Is ut this moment travelling in Germa-
ny, with minor agents scattered over the
country, for the purpose of picking up in.
formation. The scale of remuneration fol-
this not very creditable occupation varies
according to the rank and consequent utili-
ty of the party, One person has been men,
toned who is, and has been for some time
In the receipt of more than 1OO,0O0f. pei
annum tor Supplying the Russian govern
ment with secret information on matters
IN general, but particularly with reference
to France and England But the co-ope,
ration of no one, in no wever humble 6
sphere, is rejected, provided he has the fa
cility of communicating news. Even the
most triding gossip is transmitted; ant
when no valuable information is conveyed
the rumours of the saloons, more or less
and more or less partaking of scandal, serve
to amuse the court of Russia.

There's not tint of sober gray,
Now mingling with thy hair.
have not welcomed, day by day,
As some new beauties there.
There's not line, tho mark'd it be,
Upon thy brow imprest,
That makes it not more fair TO me
Than when in smoothnesS drest.
There's not hue, has left thy cheek,
That would now restore;
For tho of love, its glow would speak,
Its paleness tells uf more.
There's not a ray however bright
Once worshipped in thine eyes,
Has not become a holier light,
To point to purer skies.
There's not breath, not e'en the VOW
That made thy being mine,
So blest as solace gathered now
From those dear lips of thine.
Thus Time on these loved objects filings,
AS substance fades away,
A moral halo from his wings
To beautify decay.
Aud thus the rose may cease to bloom
Along the gay parterre,
But still eXhale It's sweet perfume
To scent the loving air.
