as Gods messengers and only when
sent, or were they wise to know all
things that were IN the earth, and did
they volunteer to assist and counsel
Were they free to roam through the
new creation. and, roaming at will,
like as Adam, liable TO fall 1t may be
held so and that after the flood this
liberty was restrained to special messa-
ges. If, then, these angels, fallen
from their first estate, coming to the
earth as sight-seers or as messengers,
seduced by the beauty of women, mar
ried them and remained on earth, we
can family imagine how these immor-
tai beings might and would introduce
infinite wretchedness, change the ma.
ture of all flesh and corrupt and make
the imagination of the thoughts of
mans heart only evil continually.
Hopes OF earthly Immortality, claims
of heavenly descent, boasts of spiritual
superiority, dissatisfaction with mere
human husbands, exciting all the very
worst passions of a nature already
fallen, would produce condition of
things well described by the sacred
writer. And it was such a state of
semi-immortality, of moral degradation
and of family discord, running, no
doubt, through the whole human race,
that made the absolute destruction of
the offspring of these unnatural mar
riages a necessity for the restoration Of
the descendants of Adam, and even
then with some evil imaginings re
naming. JOIN G.. FREEZE.

Where to Gun and Fish.

Perhaps the most practical, convent
ent and completepublication on cunning
and fishing and their various auxilaries
ever printed, is the one recently issued
by the Passenger Department of the
Philadelphia, Wilmington and Balti-
more Railroad company. Practical in
that it not only informs in concise
terms where the several kinds of game
fish and birds may be sought to best
advantage, but how to reach such pla
ces in the cheapest and most expedi-
tious manner including not only the
rail but, where necessary, tie stage
and wagon lines with cost.
Convenient in being reduced to pock-
ct size, and the arrangement of the
matter under different heads, so that
the reader in search of advice regard
ing certain fish, duck, or bird will
find it in a special chapter describing
its haunts, habits and peculiarities.
Complete from the fact that it takes
in the entire peninsula, which contains
Delaware and the eastern shores ot
Maryland and Virginia, from the Ches
| apeake to the Atlantic coast The
kinds and cosC of bait, proper and lie
gal seasons of the year, cost of wagor
and other transportation, location o.
principal hotels and boarding houses
and all information, such as those un
acquainted with the country who would
like to know before leaving home fo
such trip, have been carefully exam
ined into and noted.
The book is profusely illustrated witt
outs of fish and birds, and also con
tains splendid mapof this territory.
Copies may be had free by address
ing Mr.. j. r. Wood. General Passen
ger Agent, Philadelphia.

Cant Get Rid of En-.

Detroit Free Press.
a Woodward avenue business man,
who had been greatly annoyed by
children calling and asking for cards,
hung up sign in the store reading !:
eve have no cards to give away" 1t
wasn't two hours before little girl
came in and said
"Please, mister, how many cards will
you sell for a nickel ?"
Then the man tore down the card
and replaced it by one reading "No
cards here This was bluff for three
or four children, but one soon dropped
in who read the sign and inquired
81 suppose keep 'em all down at the
other store, don't you p
Some one then suggested that the
word "here" be rubbed out to make the
sign cover the whole case. This was
done yesterday, and it wasn't ten min.
utes before man turned in from the
street and said
"Well that's sensible"
"What's that ?"
"Why getting married without max
ing great row over it, see you
didn't serd out any cards, and Iadmire
your judgement. Marry widow die
you?'
The sign was at once pulled down, an,
the beleagured man began work on on
reading Enquire next door" ii
thinks that will hit the case plump cen
ter, but it won't be two hours befor,
some one will come along and call out
'If this store is for rent what's tn
use of inquiring next door? What
the price, and what repairs will tn
landlord make?"

A New Use for Oyster Shells.

A new use has been discovered for
oyster shells. For years they have
been used for the manufacture of lime
as manure, for decorative purposes.
and in the preparation of cheap imi-
tation of marble; but it is now found
that they cannot be better utizel
than by being thrown in quantities
into the sea where they make the best
possible foundation fer new oyster
beds. In July and August next many
ship loads of these empty shells will
be sunk by English and French oyster
farmers in various places suitable for
the purpose, and few healthy living
oysters will then be dropped upon the
same spots, Experiments have proved
that under such conditions the bivalves
will shortly multiply to an almost in
credible extent, and in so brief a period
as two years each empty shell viii
have from thirty to forty young oys
ters attached to it, The new genera
tion can then be removed to max,
room for more, and fattened for mar
ket in specially constructed tanks.
