CuLTvATING OYSTERS - According to a
statement made in the Academy of Sciences
says the Bu}letiH, there is reason to believe
that the experiment Of growing oysters in the
bay Of san Francisco would be attended with
success if Systematically attempted. Some
seedlings brought from New York less than
year ago, are said already to have attained
size equal to that which they would have
made in their native waters in two or three
wears None but small and inferior oysters
are indigenous near San Francisco, and if
good breeds could be successfully introduced
from abroad, a delicious edible would be
added to our markets aud a new resource to
our local industries. The importation of
Eastern oysters by rail has been abandoned
as improbable. Their quality wac generally
impaired, and the freight made them cost
too high. A considerable trade is done in
the small native oyster obtained on this coast
but an improved breed would greatly enlarge
IT.

ever, and before he had time to take his seat
one of the actresses who had especially won
his admiration, came TO the 1ootlights and
warbled a beautiful melody. The full, rich
voice, exquisite in intonation and breathing
strains almost divine, completed the conquest
of the countryman's heart, and unable to re-

MANY years ago, a young UniYersalist
preacher started westward to attend Con-
vention of his brethren. He took the pre-
caution to carry a vial in his pocket, to be-
sprinkle his food with preventive to fever
and ague. The Convention met, and at
dinner tall hoosier observed the parson as
he seasoned his meat, and addressed him
thus: .....
";Stranger, III thank you for leetlc of
that 'erc red salt, for I'm kind o'cur Gus to
try it,"
Certainly replied the parson; "but
you will find it very powerful; be careful
how YOU use it.
The hoosier took the proherod vial, and
feeling himself proof to a quantity Of raw
whisky, thought he could stand the ''red
salt with impunity, and accordingly sprink-
led junk of beef rather bountifuly with it,
and forthwith introduced it into his capacious
mouth. 1t soon began to take hold. He
shut bis eyes and his features began to
writhe, denoting a very inharmonious condi-
ton, physically Finally he could stand it

screamed hre!
Take drink of cold water from the jug,
said the parson.
"Wil that put it out?' asked the martyr,
suiting the action to the word.

his eyes yet swimming with water, he e1-
