Never before was there an immigra-
ton within any three years approaching
that which has taken place since the
of the steamship companies report that
the flood is likely tokeep up at an equal
rate next year. The abundant harvest
in which we now rejoice will, of course,
tend to stimulate the movement. The
disturbed condition of Europe will also
give it impetus. War, or the prospect
of war, frightens away the subjects Of
militarism. The continued depression
of agriculture in England will give q
further impulse. The remarkable sue
cess which those immigrants who came
during the last year seeking employ
ment have had in obtaining it will en-
courage many thousands of artisans,
mechanics, laborers and domestics to
follow in their footsteps.
The official records show that the inn
migration to the United States during
the fiscal year which ended with last
June amounted to 7S9,OO3. About one
hundred and twenty thousand more inn
migrants were received here than in
1880, when the number of arrivals was
greater by over two hundred thousand
than in any previous year. For the
three fiscal years 1880, 1881 and 1882
the arrivals have amounted to 1,915, 691,
or nearly as many as the total for the
eight years just previous, and about one
fifth as many as the total during the
whole period from 1920 up to 1880.
About ope-third of the immigration

Austria. From Germany alone about a
quarter of million new settlers were
received. England sent between eight
and nine thousand more than Ireland,
and nearly hundred thousand came
from Canada; but it must be borne in
mind that very considerable portion
of these merely passed through the
Dominion, after landing at Montreal, in
order to reach the United States.
So great, indeed, has been the immi-'
grafton of the last three years, and the
prospect that the tide will continue
equally strong for at least another year
is now so well assure I, that labor here
begins to be alarmed at the influx.
Some of our workingmen do not at all
relish so vast an addition to their force.
Among those who are now coming over
are thousands of stalwart men who en-
ter as competitors in the trades. The
greatly increased population of New
York since the census of 1880 is proof
that very many of the immigrants re-
ceived at Castle Garden within three
years have remained in the city to swell
the ranks of the workers here.
But with abundant crops, cheap food,
active trade, and busy manufacture,
there will be work enough for all the
new corners, as well as those already
settled here. The majority of the new

The village of Brockport, Monroe
County, N. Y. is probably the largest
market for beans from first hands in
the country. As many as 10000
bushels have been sold there in a single
season, all the product of neighboring
farms. The price of beans at Brock
port is generally from ten to twenty
cents per bushel higher than in the
city of Rochester, some seventeen miles
distant.
Sometimes the mackerel intended
for breakfast is not fresh enough in the
morning to be eatable; it is then good
time to serve boiled .mackerel. Wrap
the fish in cloth securely, so that you
can lift it from the kettle when it is
tender without breaking it. If you
change the water two or three times, it
will freshen in a very few minutes; do
not change from boiling water to cold,
but pour from the teakettle each time.

COd-Fishing.


& Els bait once assured, the fisherman
begins his toilsome season on the fishing
grounds, seeking the Grand Bank, the
inshore fisheries, or the cosstof Labrador.
The fish off Labrador, or on the Grand
Bank, are always largest and most valu-
able, but the fisherman there must incur
vexatious delays in securing fresh bait or
in coming shoreward to dry his product.
His is an ardurous and; perilous calling
The cod usually bites best at sunset or
sunrise, and often tug at the lines all
night. So by darkness and day the fisher
is at his post, save when storm forces
him to heave-to on the banks, or, nearer
shore, drives him to port. The rasping
line, drawn up often from depth of 200
feet, cuts his fingers, the poisonous squid
and salt used in canning the fish wear
the skin to the blood; hunger, exposure,
danger, are all his lot. Here, in New
cumberland, he fishes also for hard
master, the wholesale dealer, who fur
nishes the equipment, taking as security
q chattle mortgage, thus bringing the
poor, ignorant fisherman in debt at the
opening of the season. 1t is reckoned a
fair seasons catch if the fisherman comes
out with profits of 1920, on which he
must weather through with wife and
children the piercing winter months.
During his absence the wife tills the
ground, rears the children, and even cures
the fish which her lord brings home. On
his return from the remoter banks, often
after an absence of five months, the fisher
man relapses into sulky idleness for the
rest of the year. He sits by the fireside
with his pipe, leaving his wife to do the
household work, and becoming by COM
parison with his decidedly better half
most incOnsequential and good-for-noth-
ing creature. He may be captain on the
water, but his wife is captain on shore,
and the subsection to which these impe-
rious fishwives reduce their nominal lords
and masters is.a funny side of social
phenomena in this queer island.
The cod is anything but a gamesome
fish. A few initial struggles way down
in the depths, and he comes up with a
dead pull like log. Unless very large
and hungry he bites daintily, and out of
ten that bite probably but one is hooked.
In crawling" the fisherman sinks
long rope fitted with short snoods and
hooks. The rope is ingeniously buoyed
to logs, to which is attached staff and
flag in such way that each wave throws
the flag in air and signals its spot. Two
men in boat, often several times day,
"underrun" the trawl-the man in front
drawing up and taking off the fish, while
his companion bats. The "sein," so
called, is here net of great length and
depth, so arranged as to "purse" at the
bottom by drawn cord, and secure the
fish in the same manner that menhaden
are caught on our costs. The local title
of trap is applied to continuance
much like our fish-ponds, but made en-
tirely of nets. The seine and trap are
both used effectively when the cod is
gorged with caplin or squid and refuses
to bite.-St. Johns On. FL Cor. N. Y.

An American Steuben.

William North Steuben, the son of
Jonathan Steuben, the American revolu-
tionary soldier to whom Baron Steuben
gave his name, is now living in Santa
Clara County, CAL, at the age of "a. The
original name of Jonathan Steuben was
Arnold. Shortly after the treason of
Benedict Arnold. the Baron was review
ing the regiment of which young JON
athan Arnold was a member. Hearing,
by accident, the name of Arnold, he
called for the man who bore it, and on
seeing him said: "Change your name,
brother soldier; you are too respectable
to bear the name of traitor" "Whose
name shall 1 take, General?" "Take
any other name-mine is at your ser
vice." was the reply. The offer was at
once accepted, and the first American
Steuben was ushered into existence al
most by accident. The present Mr..
Steuben was born on the "Steuben

A Saratoga Marvel.

One of the marvels at Saratoga this
season was couple from the South,
who have been regular visitors for four
teen seasons. These two have been
married for twenty-four years, but the
wife still addresses the husband as
"dear" and he still calls her darling"
and is quite as attentive and deferential
to her as he is to the wives of other
men. They are both afable and soci-
able, fond of company, but they always
are together and always enjoy every
thing in common. The weary hus-
bands who are always inventing some
excuse to avoid attendance on their
families look at him with unbounded
curiosity and surprise, while she is
gazed at with unconeealed envy by
her less fortunate sisters.-N Y. Times.
