The United States fish commission
car left 80 cans at the Winthrop sta
ton, last Tuesday. each of which con-
tained 100 salmon. Superintendent
Berry Of the Monmouth hatchery was
present and he at once transported
them to Lake CobboSseecontee where
they were planted. Mr.. Berry saw a
great commotion in the water soon af-
ter he had planted them and he rowed
out to see what was the cause. He
found that the small salmon were
jumping for black flies. a swarm of
which had appeared on the water. The
people feel very grateful to Congress
man Burleigh for his practical interest
in restocking Lake CobboSSeecontee, as
it has been through his efforts that the
fish that have been planted there, this
summer, have been obtained"

was that David Harum, the bonneville

blv Of the late Colonel George W.
Stanley, long a leading and influential
citizen of Augusta. Col. Stanley, Ike
the bonneville banker, occasionally

to recover $3.50 for q quantity of en-

appeal from the municipal court Of .Au-

Massachusetts and the defendants
manufacture carriages in this city. The
leather was bought on a Geographic or

called upon to pay anything. The
plaintiffs claims that even if the goods
We're not quite up to the standard. this
should not effect their claim, because
the price fixed in the bill was under
the real value of first-class article:
also that the fact that defendants neg

Paralyzing Irony.
New York Evening Post).

A young French writer, M. De
Brahm, has been arguing with much
force that we need new mark OF
punctuation He calls it the "point
OF irony" 1t should be convention
al sign. analogous to the exclamation
point, to be agreed upon among all
cultivated nations, and which authors
and editors could put at the beginning
of pass &c, in order to serve notice
in advance on the reader that it was
writ sarcastic" No one who has
ever essayed that style of writing,
and been thunder struck bv its unex-
pected result in certain order of ser
ious minded beings, can fail to admit
that something is to be said for De
Brahms project. 1t would be the sal
walton of some readers. But would it
not paralyze the ironic writer? If a
man deliberately announces that he
is now about to produce passage of
delightful irony, will not the sure re-
suit be to make him stupid and fat
beyond nature' We fear so. A good
part of irony lies in its unexpected
ness, and readers who have continu-
ally to be warned what is coming are
not the class whom the greatest gen.
fuses strive to reach. So. we suspect
the imperfect old methods will have
to be continued, and irony go on be-
ing taken for solemn argument as be-
fore.
