The July Harper contains paper by W.
G. Wyckoif on the United States Fish Com
mission stationed at Peake's Island in this
harbor last summer. In the course of the
paper he says:
The Commission was established on Peake's
Island, Casco Bay, Maine. A lively little
steamboat took Us thither from Portland,
named the Express; and never was there
such a confusing name i'll steamboat nomen-
clature. One nevec knew on Peakes Island,
when ANYTHING was to be sent or brought
''by the express" whether the steamboat
was meant, or that express company for
which, as the conundrum has it, Eve was
created. Every fair day the steamboat was
crowded with excursion parties visiting the
islands of Casco Bay, or carrying 'campers,"
who establish themselves in TENS upon these
islands. during the summer, for two or three
weeks at time, and leave behind them in
the pine groves, at the close OF the season, a
varied assortment of clam Shells, empty bot
ties, and broken crockery.
If the wind is brisk the Express rolls lit

There are shockingly unnoetic names for the

a CHAT WITH TRAsK.-Trask argues, in
the July Herald Of Health, that the cause of
the decline III marriage is tobacco. That is 10
say, the pipe is sou-satsfying enough, with
out having woman around to bother a
fellow about his smoking, the necessary
matches. the disposition OF his inadvertent
ashes, and some other things. Again, when
the unsocia fellow does mlrry, it is unsafe to
leave him alone with the baby Not that
the baby might acquire the deplorable habit;
but the husband and father might set fire to
its clothing, and again lie might stranale it
with his smoke. Furthefmore, the less vio-
leht EVIL ELECTS OF tobacco are visited upOn
tbs unhappy wife OF the smoker and her live
children yeiy large portion of their poor lit
Tile lve5.. There is the offensive breath. the
stiiling smok-, and so on (; and Mr.. Trask
might have added that there Is no man sufli-
ciently generous to let his wife and children
join him iD his smoke, so that they are obliged
to stand afar off, looking ON and weeping.
And good many other things. All. Traskl
Ne think of you so often Dear old buffer
whose whole life is devoted to the single OBJ
ject of abolishing tobacco and so making hap
py the entire raeei Heaven save YOU from
another IDEA, however limited it may be- for
the world cannot afford to lose YOU. There
are scoundrels who argue, as Goethe did re-
gardlrg sreading, that ''there is no pleasure
Sc cheap and no entertainment so lasting as
tobacc }; but they shall have their exceeding
bitter reward, while the name Of Trask,
wrapped in eternal glory, shall rise up TO the
skies ann be written there for the perusal of
all mankind. Meanwhile, old fellow, have you
any chewing tobacco abont yoy? Haven't?
That's too bad. Fortunately, however, here
are a couple of cigars. Smoke? Now let's

concerning certain justice Of the peace.
He had just been elected and was feeling

south, one day, and Barton couple pre-.
sented themselves to him with a request to
be married. He hastened to perform this.

two after he mentioned TO one of his friends
the fact that he had married couple, de-
falling the circumstances. "}ut you have
no authority to marry outside the county"
said his friend. The amateur justice
looked up the law, found his friend was
right, paid the drinks, and fastened to re-
marry the couple OH Orleans county soil.
Again meeting his friend he spoke Of the
matter and said it was all right now, for he
had married the couple again "Haye you
qualified ?" queried the friend. A light
seemed to strike the unfedged justice he
looked up the law, took the oath, and for
the third time united that couple in the
happy bonds. But the affair cost him

eigh,y-nine years ago
"We are crediby informed that Mr.
Jesse Weldon, of st. Adams, raised yard
(feld) of turnips the last season. on an is

evening last to spend Christmas with his
friends in Derby, to return 10 school Satur-
day morning. To reach home on foot, by
the shortest route, he took a cross road,
but little travelled. Saturday morning the
school assembled as usual, but no teacher
came. Little was thought of the matter
on Saturday, as it was supposed that the
Christmas festivities had detained him at
home. Monday morning and up TO noon
there was still no teacher and the school
committee went to Derby 10 learn if he
was sick. Then 1t became known that he
had not reached home, and had not been
heard from since leaving Holland. Thurs
being of feeble health, he has persisted
some where on the cross road; and large
delegation of his friends aud ncghbors
started out Monday evening in search of
him. The reports in circulation very natu-

village.
