The Value of Fish.
for M0rc1

The importance of the cod, herring, mackerel and salmon fisheries is we'll known, since there are few parts of the world to which these fish, canned, salted dried or smoked, have not penetrat ed. Yet even those who have general idea of their extent would pcrhapa be sur prised to learn that ill the neighborhood of Newfoundland alone about 147, ,5OO,- 900 codfish are taken from the water every year that $28O, GOO worth of ber- ring have been caught in Loch Urn Scotland, in the course of 8 single fort night; that from Halifax only there are often exported 15O, LOCO barrels of mack erel annually that the aggregate value of the salmon fisheries of the Britieh isles for one year amounted to $3,45O,- 900. Such sums become startling when one reflects that each of these figures represents only a fraction of similar wealth drawn from the salt water at the same time in other parts of the world, and often by other races of men. Per haps the lavish fertility of the sea may DS pcSt 6ho"A Oy 10PCaCAhS piIo Stislo- ment of proprietor of large canning establishment at Shippegan, on the Gulf of St. Lawrence
 The heavy gale of August, 1873, drove more Holsters ashore within five miles of my packing houses than could make use of during the whole summer. They formed row of from one to five feet deep, and I should estimate them at an average of 1000 to every two rods of shore.
 The canning establishment of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick use from three to five tons of Holsters day, de- stroying every year aboat 30,0o0 tons. At this rate it is no wonder that the size of the Holsters taken has already begun to decrease, and that there is danger of exhsustiug the supply,

Saved from an Adventurer.

In December last Miss Isabella Por- ter of Chicago, one of the society belles, was to have been married to an Italian count named Nicholas Macrosski. No less than eleven hundred invitations had been issued, and @ grand affair was expected. Two days before the cere- mony it was discovered that the SUD- posed count was an adventurer with two wives and several children. He was arrested on a charge of felony in New York, and has been heard of no more. Instead of tearing her hair and going into sackcloth and ashes, the charming Miss Porter dried her tears and went into society. The following notice, which has just appeared ia the papers, may fairly be termed the sequel of the story " The marriage of Miss Isabella Pen- ton Porter, daughter of Hubbard Porter, Esq, to F. SherriIl Flames occurred Tuesday evening at the home of the brides parents. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. Clinton Locke, D. D. The newly-wedded couple left for short trip to the South."

Tunneling the Alps,

The second tunnel beneath the Abs the great St. Gothard-after passing through many vicissitudes, will be ready for traffic some time next year. It has already been bored for 8 distance of a little more than seven and a half miles, which is seventy feet more than the length of the Mont Cenis. There re- mained on January only 1922 yards to be cleared, and if the work progresses as rapidly as last year, when 2,772 yards were bored, the two companies of workmen who started from the Italian and Swiss ends would meet in January. 1880. Geologists have calculated that there is hard stratum of sepentine and schist yet to pass, and if this proves true the work cannot proceed so rapidly. But in any event the workmen are likely to meet before the year progresses many months beyond January. The tunnels length will be more than 8 mile and half greater than that of the Mont Cenis, and the total cost several million pounds sterling more.

A Serious Matter.

The New York Tribune says:-There is religious newspaper in this city which has beaten the crowd in the way of business, for it offers to every new subscriber Ca genuine seven-shooter revolver" It seems to have some sort of notion that seven-shooters are not precisely the instruments which an organ of Christianity should be engaged in distributing; it admits that it's offer is extraordinary, but does not think the proposition inconsistent with the spirit of it's columns "in these days of tramps and burglars" Perhaps not indeed it would not be surprising if tramps and burglars should be found availing them selves of this excellent opportunity of getting seven-voiced bankers cheap. Who knows but they may also be led in this way to read serious journal :? And who can say what will come of it if thev do?

A Notable Estate.
HOW MANY NEW YORK BUILDING OWNERS
 HAVE BEEN RUINED

Every one who has been on Broadway between Union Square and the Fifth Avenue Hotel, says 8 New York corre- spondent, remembers large, dingy, old fashioned building at the corner of Nine teenth street. It stands back from the street, the plot is surrounded by high railing, there are many fowls about the house in fine weather, and sometimes 8 COW may be seen grazing at the east end of the garden. This is the home of old Peter Goelet, bachelor and millionaire, who owns more real estate than any other man in New York, the present head of the Astor family excepted. His brother, Robert, married and pretty we'll supplied with heirs, is also real estate millionaire and worth very nearly as much money as Peter. The two brothers inherited their property and have taken excellent care of it. They own many houses on Broadway, and acres of land in various parts of the city, but principally up town. It has been their custom all along to lease their l,nd rather than build on it. They charge g rent of five per cent. on the value of the same, and they sometimes advance money to the lessee to build, taking 8 mortgage as security. The lessee has to pay all taxes and other expenses, so the five per cent. is clear income. Since the hard times began the Goelets have become the owners of many of the houses erected on their land. Most of these houses were built in flush times by spec ulators, with borrowed money, some of which was advanced by the Goelets. When the mortgage interest became due and the speculators could not pay, having been unable either to sell the houses or rent them, the mortgages were fore closed, and in most cases the houses were bought by the owners of the land. It was perfectly legitimate proceeding, of course, but it meant ruin to hundreds and profit to only one or two one Goelet, or possibly both. The wealth of the family has been greatly increased in this way, and there are many broken down builders and speculators in New York who curse the day they had anything to do with Goelet lease. The largest building erected on Goelet land is the Windsor Hotel, which was sold under foreclosure few weeks ago. The Goelets had mortgages on it amounting to about $180,0o0, for money advanced to build it. John T. Daly, who borrowed the money, became insane and hanged himself in 8 shanty across the East River. His heirs held the property, but it finally became too heavy for them. Mortgage interest fell due; they could not pay, and foreclosure was ordered. A representative of the Goelets attended the sale and bid up until the price went above the mortgages. He then with drew and other parties continued the bidding until $351, 900 was reached, and the property was knocked down to an agent of the Daly heirs. At the time of MT. Daly's death the value of the property was estimated at $75O, ,OOO.

Dividing Texas.

Parties in the South are said to be actively, thou gh quietly agitating the question of dividing Texas into five States. Provision was made by the joint resolution annexing Texas (March 2, 1845,) as one of the conditions of it's admission, that the State should be so divided when it should have acquired sufficient population. Texas is certainly big enough for partition. Its territory is nearly six times as great as Pennsyl- vania; it is much larger than all France, and more than quadruple the extent of England. The population is sparse, however, for it's area, though it has grown rapidly in the last four years, and will be likely to show larger rate of increase in the next census than any State in the South. In 1870, it had 618,579 people; it now claims over 1,25O,000. It has remarkable variety of climate; is rich in divers products, and has incalculable riches in coal, marble. pasture land, timber, minerals, and cattle. The live stock included in 1873, 71s,247 horses, 3,175, ,682 cattle, and 1,476, 884 sheep. In 1870, wel1-nigh 100000 acres were under cultivation :; in 1874 there were some 2,20O public schools, with a school fund of about $2, 700, GOO, and three years since as many as 1,600 miles of railway had been completed. Texas is steadily improving; many Northerners have settled there recently, and many more are going there. It is very fine and promising State; but it is questionable says an exchange, if the proper time for its division has yet arrived.

How She is Introduced.

"Are you usually introduced to your audiences, Miss Dickinson ?" asked re- porter of Anna Dickinson.
 "Sometimes. I must tell you of one introduction I had in Western city. As we were going to the hall 1n which l was about to lecture-that is, with the public functionary who honored me with his escort, he remarked, T do not pre- side tonight. We have engaged MT. H., 8 banker, to do so. He wanted to go to Congress, and he'll be glad to make speech So MT. H. made his little speech, and the like of it must say it has never been my good fortune to heer. It was Elijah Program in the flesh. Just so big and noisy and pretentioua, with @ vast expanse of shirt front, and white vest, and limp white necktie. Just such a blue swallow-tail coat, shining but tons, hair brushed up in curl on his forehead-tobacco quid as huge-hands stuck 6eterminedly into his brooches pockets. No sooner had he saen me than he commenced: Fellow-citiz ems, ladies and gentlemen It's my pleasure, my honor, to be where am tonight hem! Any one ought to rejoice to be in my place tonight. Fellow-citizens of Eleanoise Qllinois), were that great and good man-the hero, the statesman, the martyr-Abraham Lincoln, alive, and were he member of our comm uni ty, he would delight to introduce her. Then he thrust his hand into my face and resumed: 'This young woman who is to address you has considerable repu- tation-in fact, wherever the English language is spoken, wherever the Amer ican Stars and Stripes wave, her name is like household word. Fellow-citi- zens of Eleanoise, I know you'll listen to her, since she always addresses her self to the poor, the blind, the maimed. You will listen to her, since she addresses herself to the ignorant, the down-hearted and oppressed of every color, cline and brogue. This is an oration on 'Jo Ann of Ark by Miss Dickinson of Philadel- phia."

Domestic Recipes.

PLAIN RICE PUDDING.-Three pints of milk, three ounces rice, six ounces pull verized sugar, one ounce butter, a des- sertspoonful of vanilla essence, and light teaspoonful of salt :; wash the rice carefully in three waters, put it in a pan or dish, with the salt aud half the milk put 1t back on the stove where it will simmer slowly for two hours, stirring occasionally to prevent the rice settling; in half an hour begin to add the rest of the milk slowly, so as not to stop the simmering; just before taking it from the stove add the butter, sugar, and vanilla serve in the pan in W hich it is cooked ; ten minutes in moderate oven will brown it nicely; it can be served either hot CT cold. It is sufficient for six persons, and costs twenty cents.
 SoFT GINGERrEEAD.-Two eggs, but ter the size Of an egg, half-cup water, two-thirds cup of sugar, one cup molas- sses, Tablespoonful soda, two cups flour bake in two tins.
 CLEANING STOVES Stove polish, when mixed with spirits of turpentine and ap- piled in the usual manner, is blacker, more glossy and durable than with any other liquid. If you will rub the stove every day with piece of soft flannel, it will polish it, and remove spots.
 DoUaHNUrs.-Two cups sugar, two cups sour milk, two eggs, one table, spoonful butter, one nutmeg, little salt, one teaspoonful soda. It is too much butter which causes them to soak the lard.
 CoDFIsH BALLS. the fish as for boiling after washing and soaking, mince fine, and boil twenty minutes thlow off the water, and cover with fresh, boiling water; boil twenty min- utes more, drain the fish very dry, and spread upon dish to cool; then add an equal bulk of mashed potatoes work into stiff batter, by adding lump oi butter, sweet milk and beaten egg four your hands and make the mixture into balls or cakes drop into boiling lard or good drippings, and fry to a light brown.
