A Fortune In . Hat.

At Colmar, in Alsace, man just
died as double millionaire who ow-
ed his wealth to his hat. About the
year 1926, > poor journeyman turner
by the name Of Muhle, barefoot and
his knapsack on his back, passed
through the village in which Messrs.
We'll & Boutron had machine fac-
tory. He asked Mr.. We'll for work;
but, not being prepossessed in his fa-
vor by reason OF his dilapidated ap-
pearance, Mr.. We'll sent him away.
Sadly yielding to his fate, the
iourneyman went on his way.
All at once the proprietor called
him back:
Stop, man, what kind Of hat
have you on!'
1t Is . wooden hat, slr.'
"A wooden hat ? Let me look at
the thing. Where did you buy it?'
4 made it myself, SIR
And where did you make it?'
On the turning lathe, SIR
On the turning lathe? but your
hat is oval, aud, in turning, things
grow round
That is true the journeyman said,
but nevertheless / made the hat rs l
told YOU I changed the center, and
turned ~ I thought it best. Ihave
lar to travel, and need = hat to keep
off the rain, and not having money to
buy mo one, I made me one myself.
Muhie, by instinct, as it were, had
discovered the eccentriot method OF
turning which was to attain such i'm.
portance in modern mechanics. As
an expert, Mr.. We'll saw ut once the
importance of this invention. He
kept the man with the wooden hat,
and soon discovered, not only. that
he was an intelligent workman, but
that he had an inventive genius, only
needing an opportunity and some
little education for his development.
Soon Muhle became . partner, and
afterward, changing his name to
Moulin, proprietor. made large for
tune by his skill and business tact.

Gusst-"How comes this dead fly

Gsest-sHow comes this dead fly
in my soup:"
Waiter-"In fact, sir, I have no
positive idea how the poor thing
came to its death. Perhaps il had
not taken any food for long time,
dashed upon the soup, ate too much
Of it, and contracted an Inflammation
OF the stomach that brought on death.
The fly must have very weak con-
stitution, for when served the soup
it was dancing mcrrily on the sur.
tace. Perhaps-and the idea pre-.
sents itself only at this moment-it
endeavored to swallow too large
piece of vegetable this, remaining
fast IN his throat, caused choking IN
his windpipe. This ID the only rea-
son l could give for the death OF this

From the Tribune Of March 9th, 1870,
Greeley ON Grant.


The thing, however, for which the
Administration deserves the highest
credit in connection with the i'm
provement of our financial condition
are such as relate to the carrying out
Of Grants policy OF honesty and re-
trenchment. When Grant announced
his brief and simple policy for reme-
dying the confusion Of our financial
stae; when he began carrying out
practically the programme he had an.
nouncsd, it was evident that we were
about to tako long stride toward
The settlement of our troubles.
But years experience Of this pol
10y had gone far beyond public ex.
pectatlon. To say that the debt had
been decreased during the year of
his Administrator &lOO,0OO,OOO is
but to represent small part of what
has actually been achieved. To say
that during the first halt of the cur
rent year the revenues were increas.
ed by moro faithful collection, At the
rate of $50, ,000.0 year over the
previous yoar, docs not indicate the
actual result gained for tho public
treasury. To say that the expense
Of the Government have been vastly
reduced and that the interest has
been decreased by the diminuticn OF
the debt, 10 only to give . hint Of the
retrenchment that has been carried
out. But these things have told
with immense effect upon our finan-
cial condition, and it is TO the admit
rablc policy Of the administration
that We owe tho improvement which
il now going on 10 its consumation.
A Democratic paper recently took
the trouble to attempt to show that
neither Grant nor his policy deserved
any credit tor the Frightening inan.
cial outlook. But Grant aud his pol.
ICY deserve the very highest. Sup
pose his policy had been OF . differ.

The oyster TrafIlc Of Baltimore.

n DaltlmOre correspondent Stvco
some interesting facts in regard to
the oyster traffic in that city. There
are twentY-seven establishments de-
voted exclusively to the packing bust
ness. In one, over six hundred col.
ored men are employed in opening
oysters. Sometimes as many ~ TO-.
OO0 bushels are opened in d day,
packed in fee, or plckled, and sent to
all parts Of the world. Large qusn.
titles packed IN ice 60 to San Francis
60, where, if the weather prove to.
vorablc, they arrive fresh and deli
cious. The oysters from Chesapeake
Bay are celebrated aud highly es.
teemod all over the coautrY, and it is
hardly possible 10 supply the de-
mand tor them. The New York
oyster, so well known, was original
" obtained from Chesapeake. There
is great variation in the quantity
and quality of the oyster crop, % in
that of fruit, though why there
should be that variation none can
tell. Last year, the oysters were
fine and very numerous. Superior
qualities could be bought for $3.50
per barrel. This season the crop is
comparatively small, and correspond
ingly poor in quality. The superior
kinds cannot be bought for less than
IS per barrel. Sone Of the oyster
beds are located in very salt water,
others in quite fresh. Before send
ing the salt water oyster to market,
he is taken from his brlny bed and
dumped" into fresh water to lie tor
twenty tour hours. This process III
oroases the bulk Of the oyster, which
fattens up TO q remarkable plump
ness; and, although number is lost,
an actual gam Of rs per cent 10 made
by the opcrstion. Tho same thing,
with tho same effect, is done with
tho fresh water oysters, which are
given o saline bath of twenty-four
hours. So great is the reputation Of
the Baltimore oyster, that compa.
ny in London sent, A. great expense,
q vessel there last fall to purchase
oysters to plant At the mouth Of the
Thames. It was the first time any
thing of tho kind was eyer tried
The vessel remained in port about
six weeks, and lett with fifteen thou
sand bushels Of Chesapeake Bay oys-
tiers IN her hold. OF course great
many will be spoiled before the YES
eel reaches London, and some of the
old oystermen aver that none will
live, because there are SO many to-
gether they can't breathe, and, conse.
quently, win be smothered before
land is reached; . sort Of "Black.
holes of. Calcutta" arran 6 Q m ent.-
Should the experiment prove sue
cessiul, it will inaugurate the estab-
lishment of regular line of vessels
exclusively in the oyster business
The prospect of such drain on the
great oyster beds of Maryland and
Virginia, already fills dependent oys.

the carrying out Of few simple
principles Of honesty and economy,
which President Grant announced a

from the fact that the publications OF
1857 contain proud and almost
boastful assertion that they were
manufactured by mechanical means.
Jenson was dispatched privately by
the king Of France to study the new
art but no greater secrecy is to be
presumed from this than necessarily
attends tho introduction OF any new
aud useful invention that simplifies
the manufacture OF any article in gen-
eral demand. From time to time
certain distinguished typographers
have endeavored to preserve as Sc.
crets some special process, which
they considered as giving them par.
t,cular advantages. Thus, it is said
that Baskerville would not reveal
the ingredients Of the ink which, iu
his day, was considered remarkable
Tor its blackncss, and that Ibarra OF
Spain initiated his example, while
Bodoni refused his most honored
visitors admittance into one room OF
his printing Office, in which, 1t is sup.
posed, he adopted peculiar methods
for pressing sheets. Evcn a. the

still closely guarded, although many
things are freely proclaimed.
