LOVE In THE DEPTHS.
Secrets of the Deep Brought to Daylight
Nests Of Fishes.


When fish or bird has q number of aliases
it is equivalent to saying that it Is dear to
the jewellers of the country. And this is true

little fish's fancy lightly turns to thoughts
of love- and he is ardent In love as in war.
Now his colors become bright and intense.

of his tiny futtering fry are at stake.
Sticklebaoks are by no means the only
British fishes which build nests. There is
an interesting family of sea fishes which
evince great attachment to their young and
provide them with q beautiful coraline
abode. These are not uncOmmonly met

the transportation and building. The eggs
are scattered through the mass of the cor

submits them. The fishes themselves are
dark brown, with a bronz luster. and have
five tiny barbules on the upper lip.

RICHMOND, Va, July 1S-The effort for
the removal of the monitor fleet from It's
present anchorage. three miles below Rich
mond, has assumed an ugly phase. There
are seven monitors in the feet. and until
the arrival of Commander Graham, who
succeeded Commander McCartey, the re-
lations of the people Of Richmond and the
officers have been of the most amiable
character. Commander Graham. in an in
terview published yesterday, said:
"The good people of Richmond have no

they have the whole length of the dis
