happy what a pleasant world II would
be, and there is no reason why happi.
ness should not reign everywhere If
people would only make wisdom, and
not stupidity, the guide Of their lives.
What strikes one as an odd thing is
that many are able to exercise patience
and common sense abroad, but find IL
next to an impossible task at home.
With them everything is done for the
benefit Of society at large and at the
expense Of their own circle. In other
peoples houses they have q face like a
benediction, whilst in their own it is
dishgured with frowns. OF all follies
this is one Of the greatest. As if it were

dwell, and, while it is right to wish for
the good opinion of everybody, we
should be anxious most Of all about
the favorable impression we make ON
our own folks at home.

Stonington fishermen are continu-
ally drawing queer things, sometimes
treasures, from the bosom of the deep.
One of the Williams brothers Of
that borough, lobstermen, was sur
prised to find in one Of his pots in
Fishers Island sound lobster as blue
as the sky, and he placed it on exhibi-
ton. It was blue all over, dark on
the back, and shading by imperceptible
degrees into light though vivid hue
at the end of the claws, as delicate as
the pink that etches the inner curve OF
some tropical sea shells.
Old fish dealers of Stonington said
that no such beast was ever taken from
Connecticut waters before; but they
were mistaken. Two blue HOLSTERS
were Gagged in Fishers Island sound
last summer by lobstermen Wheeler
and Story of this city; yet blue lob
sters are exceedingly rare. Not dozen
of them have been taken, it is believed,
in the history Of the fishing industry
of this country; all that have beer
caught have been chicken" Holsters
Science is unable to account for thu
hue unless it is due to melancholy.
At about the time that Williams cap
tured the blue lobster, Capt. Samuel'
Staplins, of Stonington, picked up {
round clam on the shore, and he ex
tracted from its belly Q neat LITTLE
pearl, for which Tiffany & Co. Of New
York offered him $2b. Every idlt
man in Stonington is now walking
the ocean beach picking up rount
CLAIMS and cracking them. One day
last summer Stonington fisherman
found pearl in a clam, and got 81
for it from Maiden lane dealer ir
precious stones, and few days afte
that happening, another lucky borough
man caught a big fish in whose stom
buttons, and other toilet articles tina
