oysters at Hampton, Va. The oyster commits.

Zone OF the uncertainty which attends fish
Matching, for the young oysters would stay
where they are put, and would be as tangible
as potatoes. The great Importance OF the sub
1ect has led many naturaiists to experiment
at 1t within the last Ave years, but they have
the subject. The diflculty which they have
met is due to inability to renew or replace the
water without losing all the oysters, as they
be employed.
"During the winter designed an apparatus
to meet this difficulty, and the Johns Hopkins
expense. 1t is q system of inclined troughs
with lodges on the bottoms, like those used
In gold washing, and the young oysters are

which are now nine days old, are still health
full and vigorous, 30 tho experiments arc so

removed the obstacle which has stopped all
Investigations up to this time,and 1t will there

MATCHED TOO CLOSELY

There is such q thing a doing things
too well in this world, or, in other
words, OVERRIDING them, as was shown
in the late elopement and marriage of
Nrs. Gen. LOgan's niece with a soldier
boy, an account of which appears in
to-day's REGISTER. The girl had been
kept away from the world, housed up
in schools all her life, and allowed no
liberties whatever. And the result!
The same old story covers the ground.
Having never been in mems company
she failed to learn anything about
their habits, and almost the first male
creature she set her eyes on she married.
1t is right to watch girls, and try
teach them the proper way to live, but
it is wrong to exclude the female sex
from the company of men. Light up
your parlors, and have your daughters
gentlemen friends call at your homes,
and then you will know with whom
she is associating. This will be more
satisfactory to all concerned, aud if
more homes were conducted in this
style there would be less clandestine
meetings and fewer elopements. For
hidden fruit, as in the above example,
i ALWAYS the best.

wOoI.GROwERs AND TIE TARIFF.

" OOL-6 hO EhS nv IT'D y .
The tariff tinkering which Congress
INDUCED in last winter has given the
wool interest much occasion for dissat-
isfaction already. 1t has unsettled the
wool market and given the country the
slOwest trade which has been had since
the depression five years ago. There
is a universal protest against the
schedule which now prevails, and an
earnest effort will be made to restore
the old order at the next session Of
Congress. The wool. growers OF Penn
sylvania have held a meeting and in
all matters concerning their interests
have followed the lead CT the Ohio As
social on. The annual meeting of the
Texas ~wool-growers is now being
held at san Antonio, which is
largely attended. In September
the wool men of California
will hold a monster meeting. a move
ment is now on IoOt TO effect q wool
growers organization in every state
and territory in the union, where IL
is not already in working order, which
will send delegates to a national con-
veution and complete a thorough or
ganizatiOn, which will be prepared,
through its representatives,, and those Of
auxiliary societies, to bring such an in
iuence to bear upon Il national legis-
lators as will procure the restoration of
the old rates upon wool, or, failing in
that, such a reduction upon manufac-
tured goods as will place tine producer
and manufacturer upon a more equit-
ably adjusted plane of protection.

THE LAST FOLLOWERS OF Jesse

N
The Barber boys, who were strung
up by Judge Lynch last Friday night,
were the --latest aspirants to fame in the
West, following in the track of the
a~trocious Jesse James and his brother.
They were young, the oldest having
lived but twenty-five years. From
horse-stealing, 3 business they claim to
have embarked in to "get even" with
a man who owed them money, they
passed rapidly and by a natural grada-
ton to theft and then to murder.
Neither Of them had any great degree
Of beauty, bravery OF strength.
They are described as villainous-
looking fellows, with heavy, bull
bous faces and hang-dog expressions;
Ii would not at first thought appear
that any of the ends Of justice had been
defeated when the BARBER bOySDere
taken from the Sheriff by a mob and
summarily strung up, ard yet legal
measures and lawful means in such
cases are the true and best safeguard.
Murder, on the Judge Lynch plan, is
only al excuse for murder, and, al
though lynch law is, perhaps, better
than no law at all, the sooner it is
abandoned for the regular processes the
better it is for the country. The BAR
BIER boys, and such as they, are the OFT
scourings of a rough, semi-civilized
community. They must be punished;
crime must never find immunity with
in the limits of this country, but it was
hoped that the law would be allowed to
take its course and the BARBER boys
have q fair trial.
