MIGRATORY QUAIL.-On Wednesday Mr.

were five of the migratory quail recently import
ed from Messina, Italy. They were intended for
Mr.. John Moores, who will set them at liberty
in the Big Woods Mr.. Henry d. Farnandis
has also received dozen of the same birds, which
have been turned out. These quail were
shipped from Messna on the Sth of May and
arrived in Baltimore on the 18th of June. They
numbered 624 birds in all, put up in neat coops
of about 100 birds to the coop, feeding from
troughs like chickens. Although the voyage
was long they came over safely, only one dead
and one sick bird being among the lot, showing
pretty conclusively the hardness of their con-
stitution. They are smaller than our ordinary
partridge and nearly similar in color. Those
we saw were as lively as possible and chirpcd and
ate in the most contented manner. They are re-
markedly prolific and are said to fly with the
speed of q bullet They will therefore increase
and multiply very rapidly. They ale insectiyer-
GUS in n high degree and if carefully protected
for number of years. will not only be useful in
destroying insects, but will afford fine sport to
gunners. The imported quail that nested in
New England in 1873 came back and nested in
the same place this year. 1t is supposed that
the birds about to be turned out will go at once

ALADY SHoT.-On Sunday night, shortly at.
ter o'clock, as Mrs. Carlisle wife of Nicholas
Carlisle, engineer at Reckord's Mills, was seat
ed in her front yard, near the Mills, pistol shot
was fired, apparently from a passing buggy, con-
tanning two men, the ball striking Mrs. Car
Isle in the arm near the elbow, infcting q
painful flesh wound. Dr. j. F. II. Gorsuch who
nearly through the arm and remained imbedded
near the surface. In consequence of the extreme

deemed advisable to extract the ball up to We'd

At a late hour Sunday night, Mr.. John r. Wei
ker, the father of Mrs. Carlisle, who is keeper
of the toll gate near Reckord's Mills, procured n
warrant for the arrest of two brothers, John II.

WHY HE WAS DISCHARGED.

Professor Brewster saSton, OF Swan River. near
Patchoguc. engaged last November in teaching
the public school in district No. 10. in Worthwhile.
L. L., at salary of $50 a month. lie was advised
not to 90 there. as the place was noted
for with preachers aud pedagogues.
Mr.. saxton had some forty pupils of both
under his charge. and matters went along sat sfac
torily until the close OF last week. when Com.
missioner Elmer revoked the license to teach which
he had granted a few months before on the
mcndation nofex-Commissioner Benjamin. Mr. Saxton
was accordingly dismissed by Trustee Downs. The
cause assigned tor this action is that Saxton became
insane and parents refused TO ntrust their children
to his care, until but seven remained. IL was said
yesterday that when Mr.. Saxton began teaching he
was no worse mentally than he had slways been and
there seems to be pretty general feeling in River
head that he not properly treated at Worthwhile.
About fortnight ago religious revival was begun
by the Congregatioualists and Mr. Saxton took an
active part in 1t. The meetings were crowded
nightly. and many conversions were made that
the news brought ia people from the adjoining viii
lagos, and the academy being too small to accoinfno-
date them IL IL said that prayers were offered in the
open air and the crowd joined In the hymns that
were sung inside Saxton's services a prayer

against il by Messs. Sykes and Voorhees,.
The argument of the friends OF the measure was
that convict labor should not be allowed to compete
with skilled labor that 400 500 convicts should
not be allowed TO starve 10000 deserving mechanics;
that no one benefited by convict labor but one
two contractors and that the State in the long run
would be much better of il the manufacture OF shoes
in the Penitentiary abolished. Last year 'ill
was passed prohibiting the manufacture OF hats in
the prison. and it contended that this resulted IN
benefit to the State moro especially to thousands
of hatters in l;ssex county.
Rev. Mr.. Robinson, the dominic from Paterson,
and Of the members condemned in scathing
terms the mode of punishment in tho State Prison,
saying ii was inhuman, and should bring the blush
of shame the cheek Of every Jerseyman. Convicts
came out of there complete wrecks. he suggested
that the government should make penal colony OF
Alaska. where convics could be- sent and placed at
work cultivating farms and digging gardens.
Mr.. Voorhees,, in opposition said that the Legisa-
ture had no power to legislate men into idleness.
The bill, it became law would entail great loss
to the State and injury to the convcts.
Mr.. Sykes said that last year the State had made
81 900 from the shoe factory and it would be very
unwise to abolish this great industry.
The Newark members, headed by Mr.. Fielder ell
gineered the bill through. and it will probably pass
the Senate and then become q law.
