A DAMAGING ADMISSION. .-Terry's
rash admission in recent speech that
the Bilks bad no hope of success in San
Francisco unless they could effect fu-
sion with the Workingmen, is being
used very effectively by the Republican
and w. p. c, journals. His further dec
laration that he regarded White as an
honest man has been thrown in the teeth
of the Blk organ ms an evidence that
even its own allies Go not believe its cam
paign charges, and this too, is calculsttd d
to demoralize the adversary. That Terry
believes the Blk cause already lost, is
indeed tolerably clear from his general
tone, and MS the Wo7kingmen have no
use for the Bilks in any way, they win
have but hard time Of it.-Reco1d

ing at the gate, close to George Wiswall,
when the thunderbolt descended few
yards distant. Mr.. Danfeld says that
he saw ring of fire surround the tops
of the two tall white oak trees beneath
which the doomed children were seated.
The fame played about the trees in a
spiral shape and then disappeared toward
the base. The bark was stripped where
the lightning struck in its downward
course. 1t travelled down the tree by
which little Emily was rested, and pass
ed along the connecting seat TO the base
of the trunk of the adjoining tree. The
electric current discolored the heads of
the nails on the seat on which the chill
dren were seated, and finally spent its
force in the earth. 1t took o zigzag
course around the trunk of the tree,
leaving a reddish swathe on the bark,
but not injuring the branches or limbs.
The neighbors proclaim that the noise
caused by the clap of thunder was ap-
palling in the extreme. No indications
were given of the approaching thunder
storm beyond a passing cloud and a
slight sprinkling of rain. During the
afternoon and evening crowds of people
continued to visit the scene of the disas-
ter and curiously investigated the course
of the thunderbolt.

a curious sight, showing how numerous
and greedy are the enemies which prey
upon the spawn of the shad and other
marketable fish. No sooner is tin can
containing shad eggs lowered into the
water alongside the boat than the whole
surrounding water becomes alive with
perch, catfish, eels and other fish who
dart at the can and about it, attracted
probably by the odor of the eggs.
GOOD RESULTS ATTAINED.
So evident to the shad fishermen at
this point has been the good result of
the Matching operations which have been
carried on here for three years or more,
that this year some of the gillers declined
to receive pay for the ripe fish furnished
the Commission by them, saying that
they saw very clearly that they were
sufficiently benefited by the increase of
fish. In 1854 one hundred black bass
were brought from the Ohio River in the
tank of a locomotive engine and cast
into the Potomac, where the black bass
was then unknown. Now this fish is so
abundant that thousands of pounds are
caught every year. There is no doubt
that the operations of the United States
Fish Commission will in few years rev.
olutiouize the fish business OH our coasts
and rivers. The Commission has now
Matched out in large quantities shad,
California salmon, land-locked salmon,
Maine salmon, salmon trout, Goldfish,
whitefsh, smelts, halibut, and is engaged
in the Matching of carp, which are being
brought from Hungary. The Maryland
Fish Commission, for whose support the
State of Maryland appropriates $4,000,
co-operates at this and other points with
the United States Fish Commission, but
Mr.. Ferguson, the Maryland Fish Com
has established Matching
house in Druid Hill Park at Baltimore,
where trout and salmon are hatched out
in large quantities.

A DINNER SUPPLIED By AN EAGLE
A veracious gentleman residing near
Ccntrevile, Nd, says that as his son and
himself were standing near his house,
they deserted three dark objects about the
size of small birds far up in the air, cir
cling and darting hither and thither
'We watched closely, and after awhile,
they approached more nearly the earth.
We then discovered that they were two
ducks and a bald eagle; the eagle en-
deavoring to capture the ducks, and the
ducks cxerting themselves to elude their
pursuer. Far away in the distance we
could discern the main flock, from which
the two ducks had been separated, flying
steadily to the cover of the forest. The
eagle would pounce first upon one and
then relinquish it, in order to capture
the other. Dropping that, he would re-
turn to his first capture, seemingly like
the dog in the fable, greedy to secure
both. This was kept up for some time,
when the eagle, suddenly darting for
ward, struck one of the birds with his
talons, then swooping upon the other
struck that too. The first bird fell at
our feet; we had hardly time to pick it
up when the other fell, with the
eagle following. We picked up the Sec
ond one, and the eagle observing our
presence flew screaming away. On ex-
animation it was found that the eagle
had struck the ducks on the head, nearly
severing the heads from their bodies.
They were fne-sized canvas backs, and
we had them cooked for dinner.

DOES HER Own WoRK.-Does she?
What of it? Is it any disgrace? Is she
any less q true woman, less worthy of re-
spect than she who sits idle in fine
clothes, vain of fingers that never labor?
"Does her own work." We listened to
this sneer few days ago, and the tone
in which it was uttered betokened mar
row, ignoble mind, better fitted for any
place than q country whose institutions
rest on honorable labor as one of the
chief corner stones. 1t evinced false
idea of true womanhood, of genuine
nobility. 1t showed the spirit of caste,
of rank, which certain class try to es-
tablish-a caste whose foundation is
money. Position in their rank is bought
with gold, and each dollar is another
round in the ladder by which elevation
is gained.
