OYSTER NOTES.

The Fishing Gazette says: The
outlook for the oyster business for
some time is not bright. Stock is
poor all over the country. There has
been no set this year in Long Island
Sound, and oysters will be scarce for
two years. The same is true of
Virginia.
Sprinkle oysters of good size with
salt and pepper. Wrap each oyster
in thin slice of bacon,. secure the
"blanket" with toothpick and fry
in hot frying ran until the bacon
is brown and crisp. Serve on hot
toast. This is a good dish, and is
called "pigs in a blanket"
Unless the oyster laws are altered,
amended, or, at least, the present
ones enforced, the day is not far dis
tant when oysters, if not entirely
extinct in this section, will be beyond
the means of all but the rich to pur-
chase. The oyster rocks and beds
are now being dredged and almost
depleted and oysters which a few
years ago would not have been taken
from the water, are now sold at good
prices and the demand even for these
is increasing. The law requires the
inspectors to allow no oysters under
two aud one-half inches in length tt
be sold, but dealers openly charge
the inspectors with collusion Col
course for consideration with tn,
dredgers, 30 all sorts, sizes and con
ditions of the bivalves are taken ani
sent to market and consumers hav,
to take what they can get.-Ale1

POLITICAL AND NEWS ITEMS

POLITICAL AND NEWS ITEMS.
w. N. Hearst, the millionaire
editor Of the New York Journal, is
a nominee for congress in one of the
Democratic districts of New York.
Richmond saloon keepers talked
of boycotting a councilman who ad-
vocated high license, but it created
such a storm that they wisely re-
tracted the words.
Chas. /. Stengle, editor of the
fredericksburg Free Lance, has been
invited to deliver a number of ad-
dresses by the Democrats of the
Eighth New York district during
this month.
A week or so ago it was noted that
New York Democrats had nominated
South Carolinian for Congress. A
few days later a native of North
Carolina was nominated for Congress
in another New York district.
The Governor of Illinois is trying
his best to make his soldiers protect
the negro colony at Eldorado, but
the Illinois white soldiers are not in
sympathy with their Job and the
darkies are getting mighty poor pro-
lection.
Three masked men held up the
Pacific Coast express train, Of the
Burlington road four miles from Lin
coln, Neb. They used explosives in
the express car, shattering it badly.
and after wrecking the safe, rifled it
of it's contents, securing $4,000 in
gold coin.

BRANDYw1NE. CAROLINE CO., VA.

Monday, the 18th, was county
court day at Bowling Green, and a
very large crowd assembled there
from various sections.
There was meeting of the Tenn
perance Union held in this county
recently. Caroline's citizens are for
local option it seems. Six liquor
license applications were posted up
on the court house, but all were
summarily "turned down." as the
sale OF fire-water conflicts with both
churches aud schools. Ministers,
white and colored, irrespective of
denomination, turned out in solid
phalanx. With the assistance of
those, as we'll as that of private in
d'viduals, the vile beverage was pro-
hibited from being handled in church
localities.
Malcolm A. Coles, Republican
nominee, was on the court house
green and made a speech, being
congratulated by those of both
parties. Then ID. B. Powers, jr.,
mounted the stand aud introduced
Mr.. Wallace, Of Richmond. The
INTRODUCTION created a good deal of
laughter, when Mr.. Powers told the
Democratic voters that all must turn
out and register. Several of his
audience replied that the registration
was over, and it was amen now to all
that did not get in.
Oar justice of the peace, Jno. IL.
Gouldman, has gone entirely blind.
His blindness is said to have resulted
from blow he received from Julian
Wharton. He and Mr.. Wharton had
some words, and Mr.. Gouldman went
on the following night about IL
o'clock to Mr.. Wharton's house and
entered his room to thrash him.
Wharton, however, gave him such a
heavy beating that Gouldman, after
getting loose from him, was glad to
ask the feet to help the body.

TURKEYS FRox A VETERAN.

Sometime since the Baltimore Sun
contained the following, which may
be of interest to many of our readers:
A commission merchant of Camden
street was sending a choice turkey
to a home on Madison avenue
yesterday. He said the plump
bird came from Ivondale, Richmond
county, Va, sand thereby hangs a
tale" he continued. "About the
close of the civil war resident of
Baltimore saw on Pratt street Con-
federate soldier whose feeble steps
and tattered gray clothes attracted
his sympathy. Learning from the
soldier that he had just been released
from a military prison in the North,
the Baltimorean took the Confederate
to his home, where the veteran en-
jcyed the long-denied pleasures of
.donning a new suit Of clothes, eating

crops and general prosperity, it has
had nothing to do with the growth
of trusts, which merely illustrate a
universal tendency. The general ad-
vance of prices indicates the pros
peraty flowing from the tariff; if
wages and salaries have not advanced
correspondipgly, it is because they
are controlled by the law of supply
and demand. A similar distinction
runs through the whole political and
economic field. If not always con-
vincing, it Is most convenient. Yet
sometimes it is little confusing to
the logical mind"

Is MARRIAGE A FAILURE?
CITIZEN:

EDITOR CITIZEN:
For some time l have been think
ing of answering from my viewpoint
this question, which l see published
in many of the papers and periodicals
of the day, and which is often asked
In sneering manner. l will give my
experience by stating it is no failure,
nor can it ever be, when we consider
the matrimonial state as divine in
stitrtion from God, and that He
never does anything wrong, but al
ways for our good and present hap
piness in this life, so that we may be
better fitted for the life eternal. NV
remarks are intended for my own
sex, leaving the other side to be
answered by some one better qualified
to represent it. In an experience of
sixty three years it has been to me a
safe retreat from the worries to which
mortal man is heir; and in the bosom
of my family an uninterrupted con-
fiderce has ever existed, the tender
sympathy and loving care has always
been shown to soothe the wearied
mind when business perplexed or
unworthy friendship proved false.
The first years of married life are
the most important, and should be
guarded with loving care and great
tenderness, ever thoughtful of the
wife's feelings, bearing in silence if
necessary any little slight or peevish-
ness on her part. The words al
will' and 81 WON'T" s'I shall" or 81
shan't," should never be used by
either party. Always show a dispo-
sltion to accommodate your wife even
ii it Is done at sacrifice of time or
money, SO far as you can. She will
soon learn not to expect impossibili-
ties. Acquaint her with your busi-
ness; if in debt she ought to know it,
her advice may be of incalculable
benefit to you. A woman possesses a
larger amount of intuitive knowledge
than man; talk your business ovel
freely, make her your trusted COM
panion in all things. Before j learned
this l often suffered, and had /
adhered to it would to-day be in
very different circumstances. The
vast number of divorces, so appalling
to society In these late years, should
not be; nor do I think any Judge
should grant divorce except on the
one scriptural rule, and then never
allow either party to marry during
Ine nIe OF tine orner.
l can say in reply to those who
think or write differently as to the
failure of marriage, that 1 loved my
wife as a girl, in maturer years /
loved her better, and now as we ap-
proach the end of long married
life (63 years. look forward in joyful
anticipation of renewal of youth
when we shall walk the golden streets
of our heavenly home, whose walls
are of jasper and doors of pearl and
be forever with Him who redeemed
us with His precious blood. Whether
we shall live in that glory land as
husband and wife do not know; nor
does it matter. We shall know each
other and all the dear ones that have
gone on before, uniting in songs of
endless praise and triumphant rejoic-
ing through all eternity.
