Oysters by Steam to ion,Ian,

We stated last week, says the vii.
mlngton Commercial, that the English
steamer Salsette was loading oysters at
Crlsfleld terminus of the Delaware
railroad, on the Chesapeake) for the
English market
The Salsette is ship of about 1000
tons, and has been sent out by the
Flshmongers' Company of London, to
procure oysters for replenisiIng the ex-
hausted oyster beds of England. Last
year the Company sent over Mr. Wealth
erly as It's agent, who came to Crisfeld
and spent week there. This gentle
man returned to England carving with
hum several barrels of oysters in the
shell. They were inspected favorably
by the Fishmongers' Company, and
we're afterwards served up in 'everv
style at a dinner given for the purpose
OF testing their quality. At this din
ner Mr. Frank auckland was present.
He and the other guests were very
much pleased with the American bi-
valves-and SO expressed themselves,
although not without q qualification
enthusiastically British.
The Company then resolved to send
out q steamer and ascertain whether
the oysters could be imported into
England IN large quantities, and the
oaisette IS now here for that purpose.
The steamer is to take on board
ID 900 bushels, and will clear from
Crlstield direct to London. Should
the venture prove profitable one, it
is likely that large trade will DE car
RED on, and the oyster trade 1t Girls
field largely increased.

4 Jersey Editor on Kilometres.

During the FrancO-P russian war a
great deal of fun was poked at the New
Jersey editor who read in the cable dis
patches that "Bazaine has moved
twenty kilometres out of Metz" He
thereupon sat down and wrote an edito-
rial, IN which he was delighted to hear
that all the kilometres had been re-
moved, and that the innocent people of
Metz were no longer endangered by the
presence of those devilish engines of
war-sleeping upon a volcano as it
were. And then he went en- to describe
some experiments made with kilome-
tres in the Crimea, in which one of
them exploded and blew frigate out
OF the water

The Handful of Earth.

an anonymous signature, in 4 London paperl
It's sailing am at the dawB of the day,
TO my brother that's over the sea
But it's little I'll care fer my life anywhere,
For it's breaking nay heart viii be.

It's handful o earth from the land o. my birth

And won't there be flowers from this treasure of ours

What He Wanted

A stranger, one day, passing through
a certain street, was seized by a
barker of clothing store, who,
without ceremony, pulled him into the
shop, and began putting up his fine
readymade clothing. Being old and
infirnl, he made little resistance, but
asked the man if he was master Of the
place.
ono, sir, said the "barker;n ssbut
will bring him immediately
The man returned with the master, to
whom he put the same question:
Are you the master of the store.

" Yes, sir; what can I do for you?"

Appeal to FIR. Bergh Behalf of the
Bufaioes.
Mr. Berch ofNew York, has received
the following letter from Col. W. b.
Hazen, of Fort Hays:
HEADQUARTERS, Fort HAYS, Kansas,
Jan. 20, 18Th. BEEGH, Esq. Dear
Sr Hoping to interest you, and
through you the people of the country
and Congress, would respectfully state
that the extraordinary introduction Of
railroads into and across the wilds of
our country has made the vast herds of
wild buffalo of the plains accessible to
all classes of people, and each year
vast numbers are slaughtered for so
called sport, and greater number by
hunters for their hides, which net
about 81 each. / have seen numbers
OF men this winter. who have, during
the past season, killed 1000 each for
81 apiece, the carcasses being left to
rot on the plains. The buffalo is q
noble and harmless animal, timid, and
as easily taken as a COW, and very yalu-
able food for man. It lives upon a
short grass which grows luxuriantly
upon the high, arid plains of this
middle region, that is from dryness
unfit for agriculture. The theory that
the buffalo should be killed to deprive
the Indians of food is fallacy, as these
people are becoming harmless under a
rule of justice. In view of these facts
| would most respectfully and earnestly
request that you use such proper infiu-
ences as may be ut your disposal to
bring this subject before congress, with
the intention of having such steps
taken as will prevent this wicked and
wanton waste both of the lives of Gods
creatures and the valuable food they
they furnish. / am, very respectfully,
your obedient servant,

Revolutionary Organization in Franc

Revolutionary organization in France.
The plan of Republican revolution
airy uprising has been organized over
the whole territory of the South of
France. The movement is held ready
for immediate commencement in case
Theirs resignation of the Presidency is
resumed, and the appointment OF the
Duke d'Aumale or Marshal McMahon
to the chief authority of executive.
The Republicans keep the peace only
subject to the Bordeaux arrangement
for the establishment and maintenance
of a democratic form of government
in France. Any authorized attempt
which may be for the restoration of the
monarchy absolves them from the OBJ
legation, and they will proceed to take
up arms. Gapbetta, on the recent voy-
age tt Bordeaux, had an understanding
with the Republican leaders on the sub
iect Supplies of money, arms, ammu-
milton and provisions, and all the other
necessary requisites of war were OF
hand, and then followed the pledgino
or formation of a resolution to the eff
feet that If civil war should be deter
mined on the fight would be continued.
and that the Republicans shall IN the
meantime maintain their preparations
for future possibilities.

Tricks 0T Authors.

Here is tolerably correct statement
of what one Of the three or four most
popular novel writer's OF the dav in
England viii receive for a novel that
will be published in few weeks, at q
guinea and half. having previously
appeared in different serial publica-
tions. For its appearance:
In an English magazine 80. ..... $500
La New YORK paper Observation-Disclosures. 1000
In Canada ............ ... zoe
In various other ways and places Baron
Tauchitz's prints, etc ....... 1000
For the three years right Of publication
in England, at guinea and a half. and
subsequently at six shillings. - 900
This cash account will show that the
English novelist-when the English
speaking public like his books-ie not
badly paid man. 1t does little to
balance the vast number of books of
fiction out of which the author is lucky
if he gets fifty pound note. Too
often he does not deserve to get that.

WHOEVER had any doubts heretofore
whether our Bohemian Society was equal
in mental ability to any other nationality
represented in our city, could have them
thourouehly dispelled by witnessing the
production of PeJcrnh at the SIovanska
Lipa last Saturday evening. The per
formance was really splendid and showed
an amount Ct dramatic talent rarely wit
messed in any city, of even much larger
size than Manitowoc May we soon be
permitted to enjoy similar pleasant
evening.
We hope that our Bohemian friends
will soon feel enabled to increase the
size of their Hall, in proportion to their
necessities. and we can safely assure
them, that they will be aided 70 a large
extent by our fellow citizens, who fully
appreciate their efforts for the dissemina-
ton Of light and liberty.

The concert last Friday, at the Turner

sisted by her two young sisters and Miss
Ida Paichen at the piano, was one of the
pleasantest entertainments We have wit
messed lately. The singing throughout
was very good, almost too artistic some
times to be natural, and the ACCOMPANY

piano were really perfect and showed o
degree of study and practice seldom wit

taking the responsibility of diSregardins
the wishes of his constituents, to oppose

proved by the entire Beard of Aldermen

an unconstitutional AMI poorly drawn
