renbatch, whose visit we mentioned, left yester-
day for Philadelphia, He stated that he had
succeeded in re-establishing Machinists' and
secured the cooperation Of some of the best
workmen in those trades. He thinks
the employers should aid it, 1t was his
purpose, he stated, to visit New York,
and endeavor to dssuade the black
smiths and machinists there from demandng e
a reduction of hours, or making any other de-
mand of the employers, as the latter are doing
as well as they can afford to- On Wednesday, of

Said young husband, whose business specula-
tlons were unsuccessful: "My wife's silver tea
Het, the bridal gift Of rich uncle, doomed me
to financial ruin. 1t involved hundred unex-
pected expenses, which, in trying to meet, have
made me the bankrupt that l am" His is the
experience Of many others, who less wise, do not
know what is the goblin Of the house, working it's
destruction. A sagacious father Of great wealth
exceedingly mortified his daughter by ordering
l. to be printed on her wedding cards, mo
presents, except those adapted to an income of
$1,000" Said he, 'you must not expect to begin
lie in the style am able by many years Of la
Dor to indulge and know Of nothing which will
tempt you to try, more than the ewell-intentioned
but pernicious gifts of rich friends" Such ad-
wee is timely. II other parents would follow
the same plan many young men would be spar
cd years of n,essant toll and anxiety they
would not find themselves on the downward road
because their wives had worn all Of their salary

The fate Of the poor man who found a linch-pin
and felt obliged to make q carriage TO fit it, is
the fate Of the husband who finds his bride In

The shadow OF the Departing shAd OF

Experience shows that the shad fishery, for
instance, of the Delaware, has diminished SO
much that, whereas, in finny times, not later
than thirty years ago, hundreds were caught at
a single haul of a net the yield now is only
counted by dozens. II this practice goes on it
is easy to perceive the great probability that in
a quarter of century the shad will be an un-
known fish in the Delaware. The prohibition
against fishing more than six days consecutive
ly may do something to preserve this valuable
ner that can scarcely be expected. it is likely
that it will become necessary within few years
for the States of New Jersey, Pennsylvania and
Delaware to unite in the passage of laws prohib-
iting the shad fishing for one, two, or three
years, until there is an opportunity for the river
to become re stocked.
