The Supply Of Fish.

Professor Baird writes to the Boston Jour
nal upon the subject of the diminution Of
food fishes on the coast of New England.
He gives a most interesting svlution OF the
apparent decrease, and explains very clearly
how the breed of cod, haddock, and line fish
generally, may be attracted to and kept upon
our shores. The erection of impossible
dams upon the waters of New England, and
especially upon the coast Of Maine, has pre-
vented the upward course of the anadromous
fishes referred to, and their numbers have
dwindled away, until at present they are al
most unknown in manv otherwise most ia
yorable localities. With the decrease of
these fish there h as also been corresponding
diminution in the numbers of deep-sea spe-
cies near the coast. The movements of cod
are determined by the search after suitable
places for depositing their eggs, and by their
quest for food. Thus the cod, as summer
fish, is little known on the coasts of North
ern Europe, but as winter approaches they
begin to make their appearance on the North
eastern coast of Norway, arriving iu such
numbers that the fishermen are said to de-
termine their presence by feeling the sound
ing lead strike on the backs of the fish. Here
they spend several months in the process of
reproduction. They then move in body to
the Gn,nd Banks, which they reach in early
summer. The presence or absence of her,
ring determines the abundance of hake, or
cod, in the Grand Menan fishing banks. 1t
was in pursuit of the alewives that the cod
came close to our shores, but with the de-
crease of the former the attraction has be-
come less and less. When measures are
taken to increase the number of these iis,h
by the construction OF suitable fish-ways and
ladders, then may we expect to find cod and
t,ther desirable sea-fish brought back to our
coast and become as plentiful as in former
ti,1e

Advice tn Rathers.

Mr.. Lambton Young, fhe Secretary of the
Royal Humane Society, publishes the follow
ing excellent advice to bathers:
Avoid bathing within two hours after a
meal.
Avoid bathing when exhausted by fatigue
or from any other cause
Avoid bathing when the body Is cooling
after perspiration; but bathe when the body
is warm, provided no time is lost in getting
into the water
Avoid chilling the body by sitting or stand
ing naked on the banks or in boats, after
having been in the water.
Avoid remaining too long in the water,
but leave it Immediately there Is the slightest
feeling of chilliness.
Avoid bathing altogether In the open air, IL
after having heen short time in the water,
there is a sense of chiiness with numbness
of the hands and feet.
The vigorous and strong may bathe early
in the morning on an empty stomach; but
the young and those who are weak had better
bathe three hours after meal; the best time
for snch is from two to three hours after
breakfast.
Those who are subject to attacks of giddi-
ness and faintness, and those who suffer from
or other sense of discomfort at the
heart should not bathe without first consulting
their medical adviser.

AT the expiration Of the fifty-ninth minute
they returned to the Professor and papa Sa-
an still blts1ing, but more calm than before.
Then, with firmness that astonished herself
az Wen as her parents, she extended her hand
to the Professor and said:
yes, sir, ii papa consents
he gave his consent without moments
hesitation, and it was readily agreed by all
that the wedding shouli take place a week
from tnat time When Professor Foster with
MS usuai clamness, conscious of having done
his duty, withdrew to report progress to his
iriends. Wen, in due time the Professor went
10 the clerk Tor his license. The clerk inform
ed niin that the law required bond and Sc
curlty IN the sum OF 81 ,250, to be void on
condltlon that there was no legal objection to
the proposed union of the two persons named.
The Professor very promptly replied: "Oh,
never mind the bond, Mr., Clerk; will pay
l,ioo down, and will pay you the balance in
day or two." After further explanation by
the clerk, the Professor soon complied with
the law and obtained his license.
At the appointed time the wedding came
off in the best style of the city, and the COM
pany enjoyed the occasion with the greatest
Zest. The hours flew like humming birds.
As the clock struck twelve the Professor pick
ed up his hat and started to his boarding
house. His principal attendant, surmising
his intention, followed to the front door, and
informed him that matrimonial etiquette re-
| quired him to stay and board aud lodge at the
house of his father-in-law until he aud bis wife
wished to live by themselves.
Finally the happy couple went to house
keeping, and never were man and wife more
heartily congratulated or more highly esteem
| ed than they were. They were the avorites
| in the city. Never was wife more loving or
husband more Kind and devoted, but he didn't
know anything about providing for the larder,
only as Sarah taught him. One little incident
suffice to illustrate. She Id him oneday TO get
some rice. He went Immediately to the store
and and told the clerk he wanted to get some
rice. sHow much?' inquired the clerk.
"0h, not much" said the Professor. 81
reckon three or four bushels will do at pres
ent The clerk was very sorry to say they
| had not so much on hand, but they would
soon have more. The clerk persuaded him to
try and make out for few days with some
| fifteen or twenty pounds. Sarah and the
clerk were not the only ones who laughed ov-
er the incident. He never called for the three
| or four bushels afterwards

Gossip and Gleanings.
Sea air Is good for the complexion, but very
bad for crimps and starched dresses-so the
girls say.
Among the inducements to become Mayor,
in Souix City, are diamond pins presented by
grateful constituents.
To smoke pipe in the streets is no longer
considered common and unclean, but, on the
contrary, quite the reverse. The Prince of
Wales does, you know.
A young gentleman at Saratoga boasts of
having proposed to fourteen young ladies in
one week. What they remarked in response
to said proposals, he saith not
There is very little extravagant dressing
among the ladies at any of the watering
places this season. "Sweet simplicity appears
to be the rule.
1t is noteworthy fact that the large sum-
mer resorts are going out of fashion. A house
for the season in some quiet place or trip to
Europe are the correct modes of passing the
heated term.
The Buffalo Express says that the result of
an economical style of celebrating Indepen-
dence Day was that the boys woke up, Satur-
day morning, with "ful hand" of fingers and
with the usual number, of eyes apiece.
The antique and les moyens ages are the
ruling styles in all articles in household fur
niture, except wives. Strange to say, in this
latter particular, the rule is the more modern
the article the better.
1t is estimated that the recent college COM
mencements have turned out one thousand
new preachers, which, as companion to the
pin mystery, suggests the question: Where
do all the preachers go?
The saddest sight which a cultivated mind
can dwell upon is West Point cadet at

The club-handled parasols are vindcatng

BoQUETs.- There is no ornament in a household
so beantifnl as bright fresh boquet, and nothing
so dsagreeable as faded flowers. The following
is said 10 be an infallible method Of preserving
the buds and blossoms, and will be appreciated
by our friends; When you receive q boquet
sprinkle it lightly with fresh water; then put it
in vessel containing soap suds, this will nutriIy
the stem and keep the flowers bright as new
and lay 1t sidcwise the stock entering flrst) Into
clean water. Keep 1t there a minute or two, then
take 1t out and spring the flowers lightly by the
hand with water; replace 1t In the soap snds and
it will bloom as tresh as when first gathered
The soap suds need changing every three or four
days. BY observing these rules o boquet may be
kept bright and beautiful for Mt least n month,
and will last still longer in very passabte state
