SARp1NEs. The loves ofthe slittle fish
es billed in ile," shourd know that the
fish which furnishes them with such a
delicious repast belongs to the herring
family, and genus alosa. The popular
name was given to it by Cuvier, who
was the first to assign it to distinct
place in the fnny tribe. He called it
SARDINIA, from which it is known as the
sardine. Sardines are caught principally
along the coasts of Brittany, and to
less extent in Portugal. The fisheries
employ large number of men and wo-
men. The fishing vessels-of eight or
ten tons each, and carrying crew Of
from six to ten-go out two or three
leagues from the land, and watch for
shoals of fish. When they see them
they spread their gill-nets for them, and
scatter on the water the bait which has
been prepared, and which consists OF
the eggs and flesh of fish, especially Of
cod and mackerel, and sometimes ofsalt-
ed fish. Large quantities of sardines
are taken in this way. Some are sailed
on board, and others are carried on shore
and either sold fresh or prepared for
shipment For the latter purpose, they
are sailed and packed away in tin cans,
with melted butter and olive oil, which
is poured upon them in an almost boil
ing state. The cans are sealed up to
prevent the air reaching the fish, and
are then ready for shipment.

FAMILY TRAGED1Es.-It seems that
murders of entire families are becom-
ing frightfully numerous in the Uni
ted States. First we had the bearing
tragedy near Philadelphia, and the
Deerfield murder in Tennessee, the per-
petrators of which had remarkable re-
semblance to each other-the shutting
gait, the light hair, the boyish counten-
ance, and even the absence of the thumb
of the right hand. Then was announc-
ed the tragedyin York county; and then
the murder of father and son in Ar.
kansas and now we have in West Ba-
den, Orange county, Indiana, the MUIR
der of a family of four persons, killed
to prevent their testifying against their
murderer, who was soon to be tried for
arson. In this latter case the murderer
has been arrested, but even arrests and
convictions and executions do not seem
to prevent the occurrence ofthese terri
BILE family butcheries, the mere descrip-
ton Of which is almost too horrible for
belief.
