| 1t will be remembered that some montlis
ago five fishermen were drowned off the Irish
coast by the struggles.of asun fslito escape.
An interesting discussion afterward arose as
to the size of this kindsof fish. Mr.. WalpolS
one of the inspectors Of salmond fisheries ii
England, intinlated that Mr.. Brady, Inspector
of Irish fisheries, had grossly exaggerated
their size. Mr. Brady has, however, come of
victorious in the controversy. This fish takes
its name from its habit of remaining almost
motionlcss at the surface of the water as if
enjoying the influence Of the SUMS rays.-+
Cuyier says it is the largest Of the true fishes,
measuring sometimes SO feet, Its liver is of
large size, generally two tons in weight, and
yields from six to eight barrels of oil. The
sun fish are very powerful in water, and if
harpooned in the shoulder, are very hard TO
kill, often carrying off the whole harpoon line.
They sometimes run off with 200 fathonis of
line and two harpoons in them, and will emf
ploy the fishermen "a hours before they are
suBdued Great caution must be used in
striking them, as with a blow Of the tail they
will stave in the boat il it is within reacf.-!
From soto 100 of them may sometimes be
seen together off the coast Of ireland, bask-l
ing in the morning sun, In the latter part Of
June. ii'i@ils eif "'i,'g eatsl 9si

OUn HOME FOR SEPTEMBER.--This maya
zine is again ON our table, though later than
usual. The history of the settlement of
White House, by Rev. VIM Bailey, pastor of
the Reformed Church at that place, opens the
number, and though of local, viii be Of per-
manent interest. SO is the sketch of the
carly German Reformed Church at Lebanon,
taken from the unpublished historical dis
course of Rev. G. p. Wack. "Col. Honey
man and his War Journal continues the ex-
tracts from that officers diary, while serving
in the 31st New Jersey Regiment. Hon. Tu-
mis- G. Bergen, of Long Island, contributes a.
paper entitled {. More about the Dutch Set
TIERS" which commences to give alphabeti-
cally, the names of the early Dutch, who
came from Kings County, New York, to New
Jersey This will prove q valuable adjunct to
Judge Voorhees, historical articles. Mr.. Ber-
gen desires all who discover errors in, names
or dates il his list to send the corrections to
Our Home for the sake of perfecting his his
tory. Judge Voorhees, treats of the Nevius
family, giving its genealogy, and writes much
other interesting history. The unpublished
anecdote about Theodore Frelinghuysen is a,
good one, and will, like other anecdotes Of the
Judges telling, bring smile whenever read.
Rev. DR., Blauyelt's third letter Of Reminis-l
cences is chiefly about the legal profession,
but is the best article he has yet written,
which is saying much, for the others were
good. A short sketch Of Fire Island, and a
poem by /" M. A." finishing the list Of gencr-
al articles. In the Editorial Department the
editor condemns church fairs and camp meet
ings, and some kinds Of pic-nics. a somer
what humorous letter g From the Far North
west,'' is in "our Correspondence. The
editor promises two new local historical seri-
ais next month. The writer's we are inform
ed, are the venerable DR.. Blame of Hunterdon
County, and Dr. A. w. Mcdowell, Of Bloom
field, a Somerset County man. +, This maya
