arrived in good shape and next morning
shipped with Capt. Joe. Ludlum for the
fishing banks. Going out they trolled
for blue fish and caught several. Ar
irving at the fishing grounds, they hove

luck. A. j. and L. S. persisted in

heightened. They persisted in heaving
until the anchor was heaved when they
sailed away about 6 miles below where
they again anchored and finding the
ground well baited by the generous con-
tributions of A. J. and Z. S. they
caught about 3 bushel of black bass and
pOrgies.
All returned on Friday 14th after en-
jOying Il very good time, excepting A.
j., who, it is supposed was obliged to
lay in quarantine OF account of cholera

after being ~vaccinated, was allowed 10

To those persons who contemplate
ordering their postmasters to notify n
newspaper publisher that tlieir papers

advise Il careful investigation as 10
whether their subscription is paid up or
not. Certain laws recently passed for
the protection of newspaper publishers
allow the latter to refuse to stop any
paper until the full amount of the sub.
scription is paid. The subscribers will
be liable liable for every paper sent

Not a pinch OF profit does
any one get on the Linen
Towels, Table Cloths and
Napkins we show except the
Belfast weavers and bleachers
and ourselves. Few ocean
steamers turn their noses
toward America without a lot
of cases and bales for your ex-
animation. Our importations
are not only regular, but large.
Indeed, we believe we take the
entire production of certain
well-known Linen manufacture
ers.
If there is any better way for
people to get all the advan-
tages of trading we would like
to find it out. Large dealing,
steady dealing with the creators
of fabrics, and with only the
best makers, ought surely to
put the right goods on our
counters at the right prices.
We are confident that a0e
retail steadily through the

"The citizens of Penn's Grove have
undoubtedly been laboring under a de-
fusion regarding the facilities ana
modes of pleasure at the new Union
Park. An excursion of about lou OF
Penn's Groves residents came to this
city on Thursday last. After leaving
the little steamer Ulrica they helped
to fill several electric cars that were
destined TO "Union Park" Reaching
Mr.. Fougeray's resort they seemed con-
fused and were curiously taking a sur
vey of all the ground lying within lhe
'blue fence" Visitors to tile par
were mystiied at the Jersey neigh6ors
close scrutiny. And no wonder. Each
one of the Jerseymen had a bathing
suit under his arm. They evidently
had mistaken Union Park for a water
resort and were sadly disappointed 10
find no other water in the enclosute
than that in which "Mr. Bull frog"
holds forth.

Curious Egyptian Tablets.

In 1887 some 320 brick tablets,
covered with Inscriptions, were found
amid the ruins of the palace of
Amenophis ~ on the east bank OF
the Nile, about $50 miles by river
south of Carlo. These tablets have
now all been translated and prove to
consist for the most part OF lmpor-
tant political correspondence between
kings, governors and officers who
lived about 1880 B. c. Some speci-
mems of these TRANSACTIONS were Civ
en- in a recent issue Of "Scicnce" by
the Rev. Thomas Harrison, of Eng
land, and they show that many of
them were appeals to Pharoah of
Egypt for aid against attacks by the

where in America A furnace test was

steel ore known to me in America. From

500 miles; from the Bessemer ores OF west
North Carolina to the coke at Big Stone

extremes are to be had the various ores

semer steel can be made at the same place
