WHALLEY AND COFFEE.

Interesting and Valuable Paper Read
 Before the Historical Society by MT.
 Horace Day.
 At a special meeting of the New Ha- ven Colony Historical society last even- ing the time was occupied by the read ing of a paper by MT. Horace Day en- titled 'Whalley and Goffe." The paper was an interesting account of the lives of the two regicides named and valu able contribution to the history of the period in which they lived.
 MT. Days contribution contains some original papers of the period, and it will be published in the Journal and Courier at an early day. The paper was listened to with much interest by a large audience for so stormy an even- ing.
 After the reading of the paper time was allowed for general discussion of the subject. Judge Simeon D. Baldwin stated that about a month ago he had visited the house at Worcester, Eng land, from which Charles I. had been conveyed out through hole in the roof and away in a coach after his defeat in battle This old house still re- mains as memorial of those stirring times.
 A vote of thanks was extended by the society to Mr. Day for his extremely valuable and interesting paper.
 The next regular meeting of the so- ciety will be held on Monday evening, October 26, when Professor Henry Bish- op of Yale, the well known author, will read paper on How to Hunt an An cestor in England.
 This afternoon at o'clock MT. Charles Dudley Warner of Hartford will deliver an address before the Con- necticut branch of the Society of Colo nial Wars on The Regicides." Mem- bers of the New Haven Colony Histor- ical society and the public generally are invited to attend.

THE WATER HYACINTHs.
a Great Imp cdiment to Navigation
on the st. Johns River.
From the Florida Citizen.

ON tHC 81. johns hIFeF.
From the Florida Citizen.
The water hyacinths on the st. Johns
river continue to grow and thrive, and in
cidentally to impede navigation very Sc
riously. The upper portion of the river is
very badly choked with the weed, and Of
ten necessitates much hard work on the
part of the steamers in order to make an
opening. Frequently RATS of logs that are
being towed down the river will be seen
completely covered with the hyacnths,
and will look like veritable floating is
lands
A number Of different methods have been
suggested to get rid of the pest, and Wig
orous movement is ON foot to have the
government take some action to rid the
river of the plant. The suggestion has been
made to cut a canal from the st. Johns
river to Indian river, letting in the salt wa
ter, but Capt. Eugene Merrill of the firm
of Merrill & Stevens, who is thoroughly
familiar with the subject says that this
Is impossible because the Indian river is
many feet lower than the st. Johns, and
the effect of the canal would be to drain
the latter river. Another method, he says,
that could be used, but at considerable ex-
pense, would be to pump the salt water
into the upper part of the river, but a still
better method he thinks, is to use a GER
tain oil, which would destroy every plant
on the river in a short space of time, and
at a very small cost. Either method Capt
Merrill says, would kill all the fresh water
fish on the upper st. Johns, but considered
with the menace to navigation that the
hyacinths are, that is a small item.
Capt. Dodge of the schooner Penobscot,
who has just returned from Palatka, says
that it is even now impossible to reach
one of the cypress mills, owing to the
thick growth of hyacinths
1.-THE new bridge" he says, ''acts as a
barrier to the plant, and they are fast
banking up against it and spreading out
in all directions. A sailboat or yacht
could not move through the mass of
weeds, and 1t is extremely difficult for a
steamer to do so. AS a breeding place
for frogs and snakes the water hyacinth
| beats everything else. My vessel was tied
up at the railroad dock in Palatka, and
| on every hand the hyacinths were so
thick that the river looked more like a
marsh than water From the time that I
would lie down to rest util Il or l o'clock
at night, it seemed as If every brass band
| on earth had been let loose, and the I'M
earthly noise was continued night after
| night"
Farther up the river, where it is much
| narrower, the steamboat men report that
the condition of the river is even more
serious, and it will be only a few months
| when navigation on the upper st. Johns
| will be an impossibility.
The tugboats coming here from the up
| per river with RATS of logs require sew
eral hours longer to make the trip than
| formerly. Frequently the steamer Flora
| Temple and the tug l.. II. Pelton come
| down the river from Palatka with an is
| land of the weed attached to RATS of logs.

on a question of considerable weight to her.
The reporter upon calling found Mrs Briggs
alittle indisposed( not however with her form
er complsint), but nevertheless in very con-
genial mood. Upon inquiry as to the bene-
fit she derived from the use of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People, she said:

time 10 circulating campaign lies. The
class of campaigning they are INDUCING in

benefits the populist cause.

Hints for stamp Collectors.

From IdarperS Round Table.
The following are some of the varieties
Of tricks practiced by INSCRIPTIONS per
sons.
l. Ordinary perforated stamps with ex-
ceptionally wide margins have their per-
forations trimmed off, and such stamps
are offered as rare unperforated stamps.
2. Ordinary perforated stamps with wide
margins are re-perforated with the rare
perforations. This is frequently done by
means of an ordinary hand punch.
3. Where stamps are printed in the same
color with slight changes in lettering, the
rare varieties are made by piecing. For in
stance the one-franc French empire is
made by taking the so centimes, dark car
mine, with the bottom label from the one
franc of the republic.
A. Bicolored stamps with the center re-
versed, which are extremely rare, are
made by cutting out the center and revers-
ing IL on another copy of the same stamp.
For instance, the 1869 u. s. 15c., 24c., and
9Oc. have been made by this process.
g. BY chemical means the color is chang
ed. For instance. the Tor. blue of Brazil is
changed into the l0r black.
g. Stamps which have been cancelled by
pen and ink have their cancellation marks
removed by chemical means, and these
stamps are then sold as unused.
7. Counterfeit cancellations are fire.
quently made on genuine stamps, which
have been surcharged reprint" or spec
linen"
s. Counterfeit surcharges are extremely
common. They can be made on an ordi-
nary printing press.
g. False water marks are sometimes
made by printing the stamps with wood
cuts. using a certain kind of oil, or they
are made by pressing the design Of the
water mark on the stamp. and then remov-
ing a portion Of the paper by rubbing with
punice-stone
10. Very rare stamps of which a portion
has disappeared. have had these portions
added.
