SOMETHING ABOUT THE OYSTER Bust.
NESS IN "YE OLDEN TIME"-Mr. I. II.
Mong, who has been In the oyster bust
ness for over quarter Of century, has
retired from that business. He says that
it is now so cut up by competition and
other causes that there is no money in 1t.
When he first came to the city in 1850
he took charge of the agency for this
section, which in that day, when the
National road was the great artery
to the west, was not the
contracted trade OF furnishing a
q few cases to city customers rs at
present, but embraced an expanse OF ter
ritory that was so great as to take in the
large cities of Cincinnati, Louisville and
st. Louis The oyster trade at that time
was monopollzed b. the celebrated pack
ers, Holt Il Msltby, but after Mr.. Hollis
death (who was killed on the B. u .. K.
r., several years later,) the business was
continued by G. ii. Maltby. They
were the pioneer oyster firm, and
had things pretty much their own
way. Mr.. Mong says that it was not an
untrequent occurrence along about the
holidays to see two or three stage coaches
a day arriving in the city filled, inside
and outside, with cases of oysters. These
oyster coaches would come IN on passen.
ger time, Just rs did the mail coach.
The agency::then was on Water street,
where Samuel Kuglen's factory now
stands There the cases would be
unladened and stored away 10 ice. At
that early day, packing the cans in saw
dust was an art unknown. The method
then in vogue was to cut up into strips
large blankets. These strips would be
arranged in such way as to protect
both the oysters and the ice from the
heat. Wheeling was the great dis
tributing point for the South and West,
as we'll as all the surrounding country.
Every day the pocket steamers, each Of
which was supplied with large re-
frigerators, would bear away the
delicious blvslves for the water
ing mouths awaiting them in the
far of cities. SO extensive was the
business in that palmy time, that Mr..
Mong's books would show transactions
for the season of eight months amount
ing to over $500 900. Just think OF it,
you oyster men of the present day.
Then "oysters was hoysters" sure enough.
Half cans would sell readily at
one dollar and fifty cents, and whole
cans at two dollars. At the present time
a purchaser has no trouble IN buying a
gallon of good oysters at one-hslf the
latter figure. There is reduction of
nearly 200 per cent, all because of the
great production and greater competi-
ton.
Mr.. Mong proposes to take rest, for
a time, at least, from the lsbors and cares
of business

one thing he believes in, snd that is that
it is interesting to all who come within

which recital usually concludes with
an emphatic statement OF his dis
belief in all remedies that are
recommended for his relief, none of
which he has tired, at least not in any

To. MORROW. - Easter Su,aday.-To.
morrow. the day the Lord hath made
Easter Sunday, commentaries the resur
rection of our Saviour and browning
attestation of His divine mission. The
English name is probably derived from
the Teutonic Goddess of spring, Ostera,
or Easter, whose festival occurs about
the same time with the Easter festival.
Although Its observation is confined
principally to the Greek, Roman, Episco-
nal and Lutheran churches, it has q broad
significance to all Christendom, and its
recurrence is q matter of inward re-
ioicing. 1t typifes with every
denomination the victory over the
grave. and trumpets to all nations that
SChrist has arisen;" through it the
churches alluded to emerge from the
Lenten season of gloom to season of
rejoicing, with offerings Of flowers and
songs OF triumph. The transition is CON-
plete and instantaneous. In the old
church Easter was the subject of much
controversy; yet all branches OF it have
observed it from the time of the Apes
tles-hsve observed it with the most jul
bilant services, and have bestowed upon
it the highest honors. In reading the
various Commentators on the day, we in
yariably find that woman figures more
prominently, perhaps, than she does IN
any other event connected with our
Saviour's history, and to this fact may
be attributed the custom incl
dental to it, which, while their actual re-
ligious significance is obscure, still have q
deep meaning. Ia the Greek and Latin
churches, it is called Pascha, slgnifying a
passage, which was name given to the
great feast of the Passover held by the
Jews.
ALL FOOLS DAY.
Truly this head is not suggestive
of "gush," nor is il cue for poetical
rhapsedies, still beneath the dusty lids of
ancient history it plays a star part. With
the Romans it was gala day, and II was
their second month until Julius Cesar
gave it thirty days, and then it was re-
duced to the ranks, and now it says
"present" when called "foursh.' In
cruel old Nero's time, it was known as
Neroneus, which, if we may be allowed
to assert, was (N)eroneus in the Eek
IRENE. The colossal of Charlenagne

Fools Day" is said by the Oldest in
habitant to be the relic of some heather
festival. II we may believe the cyclop@-
dia at our elbow, it was derived from the
"huli" feast of the Hindoos. From some
authorities, which we cannot doubt
owing to the high endorsement that they
receive from great thinkers, we are told
that it is q celebration of Christ's being
sent on fruitless errands to Herrod, PLATA
and Caiaphas. Thus the expression,
