Never Saw a Biyalye.

A gentleman of Kansas city, who
is visiting friend on West street,
in this city, is represented as having
never seen an oyster or crab in its
natural state. To one who lives in
this travelling age without seeing q
shell-6sh, seems almost incredible, yet
there are many, and this gentleman is
not an exception, We hope our Anna
politan friend, in introducing his
visitor to the mysteries of the deep,
will not serve him as the Irishman
was once served, who had never seen
our native crab, and taking one in his
hand, exclaimed, What pretty birds
We have in America" when it seized
him by one of bis fingers, and he
shouted: Jimmy! Jimmyl be iabbers
the things alive-why don't it fly ?''
We hope our visitor from the west will
enjoy a repast on our delicious
bivalves and return to his native
city much pleased with his visit to
the city by the sea, and his experience
in the shell fish line.

are to be uniformed and drilled in
military tactics. Prof Charles w.
Forster, United States Army, recent
ly detailed by the Secretary of War
as professor of military tactics, at the
College will have charge of this new

man ought to master, as it gives grace
and strength to his movements, and
imparts vigor to the body and mind.
