For the first time the oyster trade has
received appreoiative treatment BY q

industry was committed to Mr.. Ernest
InQersoll, whose report has just been
published, covering the history and pres
ent condition of all the oyster grounds
from Canada to the Gulf of Mexico, be-
sides those on the Pacific coast. In the
census year of 1880 the capital in
vested in the oyster industry was $1O.-
583,295. The number of bushels of oysters
produced was g, 1885. Their value to
their producers was $l3, 43S,O52, aud
the value as sold was 50. O4.o 6l. The
number of persons employed was s.. sos.
and there were used in tho work 4.l55
vessels and IL $50 boats, valued at nearly
q, 900.
The total wholesale value of the oys-
tors annually sold in Boston is SOo,OOO;
the value of the oysters produced IN Mar.
ragansett Bay is $500, 600; the value Of
those sold in New Haven Harbor is $780,

Ed. Posr-lNTELLIGKNcER:
My subject il suggested BY reading
the short but interesting article in your
issue Of May 9Th, entitled 1.-The Rush
West" As well known the tide OF emil
grafton has been for many years past to
the southwest, particularly 70 tho large
State Of Texas, which, from thinly
populated State, now counts its millions
of inhabltants. Within the last few
years q grand system OF railroads has
been built through that section, and
other lines are being constructed, giving
communication with the east, affOrdinR
transportation for productions to mar
ket and easy inRress for settlers, so that
now more than ever should we look for
a pouring in of settlers to the States
and Territories, of the southwest, while,
on the contrary, We behold the tide OF
emigration now diverted cnd rolling IN
mighty biliowy waves TO the great North
west. Now comes the question, why
this change? / will state what may be
censidered Some of the principal rea-
Sons. First, d large portion OF tins
southwest section il an arid, dssolete
country, consisting OF treeless plains,
sparse Of water, q considerable portion
desert region incapable of production,
and though Ill some parts are TO be
found good soil, the frequent and long
continued droughts make farming and
stock raising there q precarlou5 busl-
ness. All this is discOuraging, but Is as
