OYSTERS ON TREES.
How the Bivalves Happen to Grow
 Such Queer Places.

How the Bivalves Happen to Grow In
 Such Queer Places.
 The other day I heard somebody speak of oysters hanging upon the branches of trees on the borders of the Chesapeake bay"
 'That sounds like a fairy tale" thought I, to myself.
 I determined to investigate. So I said: Il always supposed oysters grew under the water I never knew they hung in clusters on tree branches like apples. Curious sort of oysters those must be which grow on trees along the banks of the Chesapeake"
 Chesapeake bay has the finest kind of oysters" said the Talking Man. "The reason they are sometimes found grow ing on tree branches is this: The spawn of the oyster floats about in the water, tossed by wind and waves. It has the quality of attaching itself firm ly to any solid substance it touches. Sometimes it might be the bottom of a ship, a rock, or tree branch. You know the bottom of a ship often needs scraping on account of the Ghellfish ad- herring to it.
 Now the branches of trees often droop into the water. They do it along the borders of the Chesapeake the same as on the banks of any other river or bay. At high tide such branches will be covered with water, and when the tide goes back the branches come to the surface again.
 'The spawn sticks on those boughs when they are beneath the waves. In a few days the tiny oysters begin to de velop, and before long at every low tide the branch can be seen hanging out, with little oysters growing all over it.
 Sometimes branch which is often under water will be nearly covered with small oysters. It looks very odd sight down there.
 "Grow2 They don't grow very large to be sure. To attain perfection ar oyster must be always under water and these hang half the time out of it When they are exposed too long to the hot sun they die. Their weight ofteH causes them to fall of.
 Little oysters are sometimes trans planted Not off tree branches, but from the beds at the bottom of the bay They are planted in oyster-beds in oth CT places. where, in 8 couple of years they grow to maturity"
 1t sounds funny to talk of picking oysters off trees," said I, tor even O seeing them grow there."
 Funny enough. But they do groV there. I've seen it lots of times," sai' the Talking Man. "That's the va. queer stories get about. Somebod, hears a thing and doesn't understan' the sense of it. And most people peve stop to ask what it means. They eithe repeat the story for a marvel, or sa. they don't believe ."-Harper's Younl ! OeODle,

A REVENUE CUTTER SUNK.
The Albert Gallatin Goes Down
 Massachusetts Bay Rock.

MaSsacnuBeIbS Abay ROCK.
 MANCHESTER, Mass, Jan. 7.-The old United States revenue cutter Albert Gal latin was wrecked yesterday on Boo-Hoo ledge, dangerous rock about a mile from the shore off Manchester-by- -the-Sea, and is now sunk in several fathoms of water
 Only one life was lost, but the officers and men had an hours hard battle before they reached the land. The Gallatin was blown out of her course by the terrible gale that swept across Massachusetts Bay and in the binding snowstorm it was inn possible to get any bearings.
 The vessel left Kittery early in the m orning for Provincetown. At 10 o'clock the storm broke. Capt. Eric Gabrielson saw that the steamer was drifting toward the shore with the heavy tide and kept up a speed of eleven knots an hour until through a rift in the snow an island was made out ahead The pilot said it was Kettle Island off Magnolia The Captain replied: 'If that is Kettle Island an east course will take us to Eastern Point" Again the weather shut in thicker than before. The course was changed, the cutter backing. She stood on her course again and within five minutes struck on a sunken rock which proved to be a part of Boo-Hoo ledge, and soon after broke in two.
 The men promptly took their stations in the boats. Jacob Jacobson, the ill-fated carpenter, had just got into his boat when the cutter was raised by 8 tremendous wave and dropped with terrible force upon the ledge. The stack chains snap ped and the great funnel went over upon the carpenter and his boat. It is believed that Jacobson was instantly killed. It required the exercise of good judg- ment and seamanship to reach the shore 1 even after the boats were cast off.
