The Chicago papers announce
the arrest of one B. S. Burdick, in
Memphis, Tenn, charged with big
amy, stating that he formerly hailed
from Boscobel, Wis. Many of those
who were acquainted with Boscobel
and its people, some years ago, will
remember Burdick. He was married
| about four years ago to beautiful
and accomplished young lady, the
daughter of a clergyman then sta,
toned at Boscobel. The marriage
was celebrated with great eclat and
the newly welded pair soon after
left for Dakota where, almost before
the honeymoon had waned, BurdicI
began to allow the inherent rascality
of his nature to crop out. He wa:
arrested and his young wife, broken
hearted, returned to her parents
From that time Burdick went from
bad to worse, but managed to jus,
escape the clutches of the law, until
as it seems he drifted down to Mem
phis, where he succeeded in blastin.

exploit of his is likely to wind VI

city, in spite of an abundant supply Of
salt. water and different kinds of fresh.
water fish, the carp is ever preferred to
these, and, with the exception Of trout and
salmon, it frequently commands price
three times as high as all the rest. ] main
tain my assertion that carp, whether it be
scale, mirror, or leather-carp is one Of the
most excellent fresh.water fishes. and
its introduction will be OF great value
in point of national economy, especi-
ally on account of the facility of its
culture and the enormous extent to which
this may be carried on" The carp and its
value as fish of culture will before long
be fully appreciated, go that we may be
enabled favorably to compare the results
of the culture in America, as also the ex-
tent attained, with any other country, to
our complete satisfaction. Now for the
answer to the question as to how much
carp flesh can be raised to the square rod.
That will depend on the amount of the
proper gases in the water, and this will
depend on the flow and quality of the
water, a. some waters have more than
double the amount of oxygen that others
have. l cannot give figures that will come
out to fraction, but will say that at least
from ten to fifty pounds, owing to the COM
bined attention and condition of ponds.
