LARGE ARRIVAL OF SALMON EGds.-sWe
learn from Maj. E. J. Anderson, of the State
Fish Commission, that the U. s. Fishery, on
the Sacramento river, has succeeded this sea-
son IN procuring and impregnating seven mill
lion eggs OF the California salmon, of which
four millions have been distributed to States
whose commissioners have applied for them.
BY direction of Prof. Baird, U. s. Commits
soners, five hundred thousand of these eggs
were consigned to Major Anderson, to be
Matched and deposited in the waters of this
State. All the eggs designed for distribution
to the several States were forwarded from
California to Chicago in refrigerator cars, and
from that point distributed by express. The
Commissioners of New Jersey have control
of the Matching house established by the late
DIR. Slack, at Bloomsbury, and the eggs for
this State were sent directly there. They
arrived in good condition, on Tuesday last,
and were Immediately placed in the Matching
troughs. Should all go well with them, the
young fish will be ready for distribution
about January next. The eggs are furnished
by the U. S. Commission free of charge, the
State paying for the transportation from Cal
ifornia, and, of course, bearintg the expense
of Matching and distributing the young fish.
A large portion of the proceeds of those
Matched under the direction of the Commits
sicners of this State will be placed in the Del
aware river.

Among the ludicrous things Of the late
Democratic caucus, was the card of Joshua
Primmer candidate for Senator. Joshua said
that being long convinced that the nominee
for Senator should be a man of untarnished
reputation and clear record, and that the sue
cess OF the party at tho election may be GER
tain, thereby decline being candidate" That
is pretty hard on Joshua but he didn't mean
that. Referring to this card, the Clinton
Democrat says:
AS for Primmer's slanderous insinuations,
we will be so charitable to the old man as to
accept his declaration that he did not know
what he was signing He only knew that the
terms which took hin, out Of the field were
satisfactory

qualities and advantages, he is working

fair although candor compels me to say that
the odds are against him. Success is how

Mr.. Ben Rice, we understand, isvery indig-
aant to think that after paying liberal price
for the decent burial of his trusty charger,
the poor animal should be torn to pieces
by dogs, and that of the two hundred and
forty-seven bones which constitute his noble
frame no two remain in The same field. Had
the horse been inclined to kick, bite strike or
run away, it would have served him right to
feed him to the dogs and we could have stood
the stencil with much better grace, but as he
was perfectly safej kird as a kitten and meek
as lanrb, 1T was certainly an outrage and

MOUNT AIRY, N. j., Octs 21st; 10.
RUNAWAY. Jake and PAGER Bill, two
very high spirited horses belonging to our
Chief Justice, ran away last Friday creating
a big dust and causing considerable excite
ment. The Justice was hauling in corn and
left the team standing in the road while he
went into the house to get drink of water.
When he came out the team was gone, and
upon looking down the road. saw tremen-
dous cloud of dust, nothing more. He inn
mediately started in hot pursuit, overhauled
them on dead run and boarded the wagon
in the first quarter of mile, but even then,
with the ribbons we'll in hand, and notwith-
standing our Chief is powerful man, in the
prime of life, he was utterly unable to check
their fearful pace, until arriving at the forks
of the road, nearly half mile distant, where
Jake concluded to go one way, Bill another,
and the Justice-acting as the third person
spoken of-offered q motion to turn arohnd.
Luckily no damage was done, but we trefi,ble
to think of what might have happened, and it
should be warning to others. Never place
too much confidence in your horse. 1t was
this little over-confidence on the part of Mr..
Ben Rice, at Ringoes, sometime ago, that
caused such bad smell at Mt. Airy.

After a careful study of the matter we have
come to the conclusion that the duty on dis
titled spirits has proved failure and that
it is very disastrous to the American people,
causing more misery and waste of brains and
money than even the rebellion,--on account of
which it was originated. Grain distilers
cannot compete with crooked operators, hence
the low price Of grain and the overAabund-
ance OF bad whiskey and fearful increase of
insane paupers Our Asylum expenses have
thribbled within the last two years. Millions
of dollars have been paid revenue officers, for
what Simply to gull our farmers out of
about twenty-five cents per busiel ON their
grain and increase their taxes to about the
same amount for the support of insane pau
pers, the Government receiving small per
cent. of the plumber for offering Inducements
to bad men to violate the law and scatter
death and destruction throughout our land
Remedy-remove the tax on spirits and to-
bacco send the army of bummers, gaugers,
inspectors and collectors West to fight the
Indians, pay off the war bonds according to
the original contract, require people to take
out license to use whiskey as human loco
motive power apply the license fees to the
benefit Of schools, and teach the rising gene
ration the wckedness and folly Of using slim
ulants as beverage.
