 Granite Bay is q pseudonyme for the rocky nook on the Connecticut shore (Short Beach. near New Haven) where Bishop Goodsell, of Tennessee, (former- ly of New Haven) has had his summer home for many years. His little book, Mature and Character at Granite Bay (Eaton X Mains), forms an engaging tribute to the place. Nothing is too small or familiar to afford him the pleasures of observation, or to receive from him the most appreciatiVe, de- scription. Birds, fish, reptiles and ln- sects are, with the inaninlate beauties of the shore, celebrated in manner well calculated to entertain and instruct the reader The second part of his book is devoted to sketches and human char acter, picturesquely hit off and always marked by a peculiarly sympathetic touch.

 portance of department and the propr' 5 civ of having traditions of seemly peha- ] yior adhere to the fence which will DC mt back as soon as the frost is out ol Q the ground, so that the traditions car get an early spring start,
