Lobster Hunts in New England.

During the summer months seaside
visitors on our New England coast organ
lied lobster hunts" which are usually
very pleasant affairs. Two boats carry a
party of five or six to the lobster grounds
where the guide tells them "iobs" are to
be found. In addition to the nets and
baskets, large boiler is brought along.
On some prominent rock which overlooks
the lobster grounds, they build fire, and
securely fasten the boiler in some creyice
just over the flame. Clear spring water is
poured into the boiler. which soon begins
to sputter and hiss as the fire burns up
brightly. When dozen or more Holsters
have been caught, they are brought to the
rock and dumped into the boiling water.
There is brief struggle for life, scratch
ing noise in the boiler, and then all is quiet
again.
Some crackers and cheese are meanwhile
produced, and circle is formed around
the fire and the boiling Holsters. The light
of the moon casts pale weird shadows on
the dark rocks, while the sea waves sing
and dance monotonously below. When
the cover of the boiler is finally removed
the beautiful green Of the shells has taken
on a bright red. The shells are easily
broken, and as soon as the meat has cooled
sufficiently each member of the party Sc
cures trophy and begins the feast of the
epicure.-Harper's Weekly.

ton has come. 1 am anxious that the voice
of Colorado be now heard" He paid a COM
plimeut to Senators Teller and Wolcott.
A Connecticut delegate objected to the
passage of the resolution by reclamation.
The roll of states was called with the
following result: For free and unlimited
coinage of silver, 4Sl votes; against, 5 votes.
When the state OF Connecticut was reached

REAGAN TO HOXIE.
The Railroad Commission Through Its
Chairman Writes of the Packery.

Several days ago Col. Hoxie sent an in
vitation to the railroad commissioners to be
present at the great barbecue to be given
to-day. Yesterday Col. Hoxie received the
following letter:
AUSTIN, TEX, Nov. 10, 1851.
John R. Hoxie. Esq, Fort Worth, Tex.
DEAR SIR.-Your letter of the 10th inst.
is before US, in which you invite US to be
present at the celebration of the anniver-
sary of the Fort Worth packing house on
November 81 We are much obliged for
the extension of this invitation,
and the members of the COM
mission would be glad to participate in the
anniversary of that important and useful
enterprise, but duties here will deny US
that pleasure. We very sincerely
hone for the fullest success of
the packing house, as an enterprise
of great value to the people of the state,
which we hope will be remunerative to the
persons who have put the capital In 1t.
Very Respectfully, JOHN Il. REAGAN,

KNIGHTS OF MALTA.

The knights of Malta made a splendid
showing, considering their numerical
strength. It is an old order that was alb
sorbed by another Institution, but many
changes and Innovations have so altered
the united BODY that the old order has
been revived and is making wonderful
progress. It's growth IN this section has
been remarkable and the result of the
demonstration last week has been
the formation of two commentaries
in this city. 1t Is composed OF splendid
material, as two local ciergymen are num-
bered among the Knights. The reports
of the proceedings have been fully given
in the daily issues OF THE NEWS, and
there is nothing to be added except to
compliment the local Communicates in
tue excellent arrangements made for the
comfort and entertainment OF the visiting
Knights They did their utmost TO make
their guests comfortable. The convoca-
ton was grand success and nothing oc-
CURED to mar tine harmony.
