LADIEg COLUMN.


A Newport letter says Within a
short mile of the quay at Newport,
Lyme rock rises out Of the waters Of
Narragansett bay. On this rock
stands the old lighthouse which was
tended for many years by the father Of
Ida Lewis, and Of which she now, un-
der the seal Of the government com
mission, is keeper. Securing the SER
vices Of the captain Of diminutive
boat, I sailed on the waters blue to her
abode for the purpose Of paying her
my respects. AS we approached the
rock an immense mastiff, with head
and paws like lion and a roar like
far-off thunder, came to it's extreme
verge and disputed our landing. He
was entirely successful until the
heroine appeared, called him off in
the lowest of tones and locked him
up in an outhouse. She then invited
me into the little house, on the top Of
which rests the beacon light which has
for SO many years warned the naviga-
tor Of hidden dangers, and at once en-
tered into easy and unrestrained con
versation. She said that she had for
twenty-five years lived on that rock;
that she used 70 be fond of going into
the city once in awhile, but that she
cared very little for it now; that she
always had great many visitors in the
summer, few years ago the number
reaching thousands in one season. She
showed me her medals received from
Congress, the State of Massachusetts
and the city Of Newport. and solid
silver teapot from the officers at Fort
Adams, all bearing suitable inscrip-
tions in testimonial of her heroism in
rescuing SO many human beings from
watery graves.
Miss Lewis is rather above medium
height, Of somewhat slender figure,
good features and great earnest eyes,
between brown and gray. While she
cannot be called handsome, her face is
one to interest and attract Her style
Of conversation is piquant and viva
cious, and, although not educated, she
is very intelligent. Every thing about
her and her apartments bore the evil
dence of neatness, care and good
taste. Her mother, a venerable old
lady, with thick silver hair, was very
talkative, and discoursed on matters
and things, personal and otherwise, at
length. She informed me she had
rheumatism in her feet, and Ida insist
ed that it was because she had dyed
herAair for SO many years. She com
municated the intelligence that her
daughter was forty years old, at which
Miss Ida eyinced a slight tinge of an
noyance, and remarked: Mother
thinks she must tell every one my age.
But she quickly added: "Well, I don't
care, it don't make any difference.
don't object to getting old.'

oysters.

New York, writes Hermit" in the
Troy Times, is an oyster-eating city,
and indeed always has been, and the
legal enactments protecting oyster beds
date as early as 1887, nearly century
and half ago. Oysters are as cheap
food as the market affords, and yet
they are much increased in price. Ten
years ago they were sold by the cargo
at fifteen cents bushel, but now they
are four times that price. The cause
of this advance is found in the fact
that 100000 of oysters are eaten in
this city annually, while the export
trade is immense. There are 400
schooners bringing oysters from Vir-
ginia to New York, the average cargo
being 1000 bushels. The oyster busi-
ness in this city employs 12,000 per-
sons, the most important being the
"stabber." The rapidity with which
some of these fellows work is as
tonishing, but it requires years Of
practice. The cheapest place is a
small saloon near the foot of Spring
street, where bowl of oyster soup and
two soda crackers can be had for five
cents. Ten cents per bowl is the price
in Washington market, and the woman
who keeps this stand is getting rich.
To meet the wants of the poor who
cannot patronize saloons there is class
Of night peddlers whose business be-
gins with gas-light, and who obtain
small oysters at low price for this
purpose. 1t is curious to observe the
similarity Of the names by which this
popular shell fish is known in all lam
guages. For instance, there is the
German auster, the Dutch oester. the
Swedish ostra, the Danish oster, the
Russian ystritz, the Cornish estren, the
Latin ostrea and the Greek osteon.
Oysters when sent from the market tc
the customers houses are always car
ried in pals painted blue on the out
side and white on the inside, this being
one Of the oldest customs in the trade.
