Alpena weekly argus. [volume] (Alpena, Mich.) 1871-1893, 1877-11-28

A fine fishing bank has been dis
covered within fifteen miles of
Boston harbor entrance. 1t is so
rich in fish that from 500 to 1000
pounds were taken by trolling with
in half an hour: and among the
victims was discovered a splendid
species of founder previously un-
known on the American coast, and
believed to be peculiar to Green
land. Besides the investigation
into the natural history and econ
omical value of the marine animals
of the coast, numerous observa-
tions were taken upon the temper
allure of the water at different
depths and localities. In some
cases the thermometer, at the
depth of 100 fathoms, was found
to stand at thirty degrees Fahren-
heit, or below tie freezing water:
and, strange as it may seem, these
spots pre-eminently abound in an
imal life. Great quantities of fish
were taken from the icy water, and
among them star fishes of extraor-
binary beauty.

Courage.

This is an element in a persons
nature that exerts powerful sway
over his life happiness. Some in
dividuals at the least obstacle give
up, and sit down in despondency-
fold their hands in despair; while
others, apparently in the same cir
cumstances, seem to rejoice in over
coming difficulties, and press ahead
with renewed determination and
strength. This difference is nat
ural in great degree. One sees
courage or cowardice developed
in children, at an early age. Per-
haps education has to do with it,
in some measure, but it still seems
as If it were part Of nature; one
child will be frightened at a
shadow, while another never sees
anything to alarm it, and is as fear
less in the dark as in the sunshine.
Courage saves one many sad
days and gloomy hours. A cour-
ageous heart never is borrowing
trouble-looking for trials that may
not come. GAS long as o person
keeps his courage up there is hope,7
said physician speaking of one
Of his patients who was lowering
between life and death. 81 never
give up a sick person who thinks
he is going to get well; and there
is not much use trying to save one
who has no courage to live or try
to get WE'LL"
There was great deal of wisdom
in the remark but sometimes it
requires more courage TO live than
to die.
Many person has fought with
trials, troubles, and tribulations,
and come off conqureror at last,
who would gladly have sunk into
the grave in preference to facing
the world and keeping on a bold
front. To make the best trials,
and Affections, and keep the skele-
ton of sorrow hid from mortal
sight, is far better than to clasp to
the breast and lie down in despair.
Always remember that "into every
life some rain must fall"

The Young Merchants.

Two country lads came at ar
early hour to market town, and ar.
ranging their little stands, sat down
to wait for customers. One was
furnished with fruits and vegeta-
bles of the boys own cultivation,
and the other supplied with Holsters
and fish. The market hours passed
along, and each little merchant saw
with pleasure his stores readily de-
creasing, and an equivalent in
silver shining in his little money
cup. The last melon lay on Harry's
stand, when a gentleman came by,
and placed his hand upon it, said:
"What fine, large melon! What
do you ask for it, my boy 2"
"The melon is the last / have,
sir; and though it looks very fair,
there is an unsound spot in it," said
the boy, turning it over.
$50 there u.s." said the man ; ~
think l will not take. But" he
added, looking into the boys fine
open countenance, sis it very
business-like to point the defects of
your fruit to customers :"
at is better than being dis
honest" said the boy modestly.
"You are right, little fellow
always remember that principle,
and you will find favor with God
aud man aslo. / shall remember
your little stand in the future"
"Are those Holsters fresh 2" he
turning to Ben Williams.
"Yes, sir; fresh this morning. l !
caught them myself" and a pur-
chase being made the gentlemen
went away.
Harry, what fool you were to
show the gentleman that spot in
the melon. Now you can take it
home for your pains, or throw it
away. How much wiser is he
about those Holsters l caught
yesterdays Sold them for the
same price l did the fresh ones.
He would never have looked at the
melon until he had gone away"
"Ben, l would not tell a lie; or
,ct one either, for twice what |
earned this morning. Besides,
shall be better off in the end for |
have gainen customer, and you
nave lost one."

CHAPTER II.

The Duke de Chimpanzee was
chief of very large tribe. If be
had been in the show business he
would have made an everlasting
fortune. be had but one daughter,
the Lady Adeliza, and as she would
inherit the live stock over which
he ruled, youths of tho neighbour
ing tribes desired to marry her.
Her parents, however, desired that
she should be, if possible, the foun-
tain of a new race, to which all
their traditions told them they were
working up. They determined
that she should wed the Prince
dOrang Outang. The duke pro-
posed the matter to the prince.
"Aw!" said the prince, as he adj
justed his eye glass; sis it nice I"
"She is beautiful" replied the
duke.
"Aw!" said the prince "give it
ri shall give her all Ethiopia"
replied the duke.
81 will-aw-step down, and
aw-look at it," murmured the
prince, carelessly. "By surprise,
you know"
This was agreed upon, and the
duke departed.
The prince knew his worth. He
was quite white, and was not
troubled with the slightest particle
of caudle appendage; but Ethio-
pia was big prize, and he resolved
to win it. One week after the
duke had offered his daughter, the
prince started for Senegambia with
the intention of looking at the fair
face of Adeliza.

sisters in one of the most respecta-
bic, wealthy and distinguished
families in the State that as soon
as one would die, he would go and
marry her sister in a reasonable
time. OF course some of them
were widows when he married
them. In connection with the
marriages there was a standing
joke told at the expense of the
Governor, which was that when he
went to ask the old gentleman's
consent to marry the last one, the
venerable father is reported to
have said:
ayes, Claib, you can have her.
You have got them all. For good
ness sake, don't ask me for the old

Present Doing.

Do not live a single hour of your
life without doing exactly what is
to he done in it, and going straight
through it from beginning to end.
Work, play, study, whatever it is
take hold at once, and finish it up
squarely and clearly, and then at
tend to the next thing, without
letting any moment drop out be-
tween. It is wonderful TO see how
many hours prompt people con-
trive to make of day it is as if
1uey l"N,-~N - 49, 49, 81 A
lers lost. And if ever you find
yourself where you have so many
things upon you that you hardly
know how to begin, take hold of
the very first one that comes to
hand, and you will find the rest all
fall in file and follow after like q
company of we'll drilled soldiers !;
and though work may be hard to
meet when it charges in a squad, it
is easy vanquished if you can bring
it into line. No man ever largely
succeeded who just looked his
work in the face.

CHAPTER III.

The prince was wandering
through the woods of Senegambia,
gayly singing,
would be a butterfly,
Born in a bower,
when his eyes fell upon a lovely
chimpanzee sitting in a shallow
brook sucking q cocoanut. She
was the loveliest creature he had
ever seen. His heart was touched
at once. He raised his eye-glass
and stared at her till her eyes fell
in modest confusion.
"Fair chimpanzee," said he,
"wilt not-not-aw-tell me your
name!"
"Adeliza," whispered she.
The Duchess de Chimpanzee,
who had witnessed the meeting
from behind q clump of bushes,
chuckled, and slid off on her left
ear.
"Adeliza," sighed the prince,
"thou art-aw-beautiful. Wilt
thou-aw-marry met"
The Lady Adeliza threw the re-
mains of her cocoa-nut at the head
Of a neighboring tree, fell into the
arms of the prince, and gently
