A* tho subject of fish culture tc excit
ing much Interest throughout theUnjted
Suites, and millions of.dollars: ito being
annually expended by the Government
and tho various States for this urpose, I
have thought a brief account of how it is
managed might not be uninteresting to
Jour readers. X am indebted to Hon. A.
'. Butler, Commissioner of Agriculture,
ant? If. O. J. Huste, Superintendent of
Fisheries, for South Carolina, for tho
following information :
Tho art of artificial impregnation and
hatching uf fish . eggs hr.s long been
known and practiced in the civilized
world, but at no period, in ito history,
probably, has lt been so extensively and
successfully carried ou as at present.
Its progress ls watched with the greatest
satisfaction in our own State and the
liveliest interested is manifested in the
work by our own beat eitlsens. Tn rt
stocking the streams and ponds of tho
State with the beet varieties of flehte- wo
Eut into tho bando of, not s ce/talc class,
ut the whole peoplo, a good and whole
some article of food, the need of which
is mucli felt. The Commissioner of Fish
. and Fisheries of this State bas succeeded
in placing in our waters A number of
shad. California salmon, California (rout,
Land Lock salmon and the German carp,
and hopes to carry on tho work in future
seasons to a-much larger extent.
The California salmon are taken on
McCloud river, California, and donated
to th j different State? Government.-!
They begin the ascent of the river in the
month or August, seeking their natural
snawnb. g grounds, near it8sourcc3, where
tho water ia clear and shallow, and
where they find grave1 ly beds suitable
for.tho deposit of thel? eggs... They aro
captured when going.up the river, for
the purpeso. of procuring the spawn,
which is done by mon proficient in the
the art of fish culture. The eggs are
forced from the, female by compression
of the the nbdomeri; into dry pans, and
are then covered with thc milt of tho
male fish; which is taken in the samo
way. They aro then thoroughly mani
pulated and allowed .to stand tili im*
pregnntion takes'pince, when they aro
cleaned and placed in wiro troya in
troughs of running water, prepared fer
their reception, where they remain till
the oye-spots on tho egg begins to devel
op. They aro then packed in crates pre
paratory to tho long jonrnoy across tho
continent which they must undergo ero
they reach their destination. There la
probably nothing that takes so long a
trip in this delicate embryo state aro
these fish. The utmost care and pro
caution ia taken in packing, so that usu
ally they reach their destination with
but small Idas. lu? packing, a crate
about two foot square and six inches
deep, made of white pino is used ; in the
bottom of this is carefully laid a coat of
fine green moss, gathered from tho rocks,
on tho mountain sides, .and. on this a
pieco of mosquito netting, just tbo~aiio of j
the box, then a layer of eggs, and on
thia another piece of notting, then moss,
and 60 on nntil fivo layers of egos have
been placed in, which usually filia tho
box. Tho top is thon carefully oerowed
down, nails not hoing used because the
driving would Jar the eggs. Two of
theso crates are secured firmly in a
larger one made of slats, with an iee
chamber between, and- ferns packed
firmly oh all sides. A freo uso lot '.co is
then resorted to on tho journey, to pre
vent the eggs froirt becoming overheated
en vo?te^ for, in such n. case, they would
hatch and perish before, reaching .the
hatching house/ where they* are to bo
cared for until sufficient Bizs to bo re
leased in the diff?rant streams.. There is
nothing moro interesting than tho caro
of these eggs'fsom tho time they, reach
tho house. Tho fish culturist watches for
their arrival ?anxiously and baila them
with delight, z:\yhen .they.arrive the
temperature of the water is taken, and
if materially diff?rant from the water in
which they are to bo placed, the weter le
allowed to run on them until they aro
about equal coolness. This is done to
prevent too ?sudden a change, ns'it would
provo very detrimental to the eggs.--?
Hatching houses, io Which the trout
family aro hatched, of which the salmon
ls a species, are usually located near
Bomo basin or soring, or tho source of
some branch, affording at all times an
?abundant;supply of cool, clear water,
with sufficient elevation: to enable ir>
being..carried Into the houso, threo or
four, fett nbovo tho level of tho. floor. It
is taken up ot tho fountain-head and
conducted ny means.of troughlng trough
a Altering race (if necessary to secure
water freo from sediment) into a largo
settling tank just nbovo the hatching
houso. This tank answers & two-fold
purpose, In affording tho water an oppor
tunity to BCttlo, and if ot any timo the
supply of wafer is cut off, a sufliclont
quantity is loft to run tho hatching house
for twelve hours or moro. No tank
should hold less than enough for this
purposo.
Tho water ia thea conducted in flumes
into the -house, whore each through Is
furnished with a regular supply. The
troughs are mado of common pine, usu
ally twolvo to fifteen feet lone, ten inches
wide and about six Inches deep, Thoy
ore tarnished Ano wire screens in either
end* one where tho water comes in and
tho clher juat where it flown out, thus
tho young fish aro prevented from escap
ing, the utmost caro and vigilance being
necessary to confine them, owing to their
wonderful proclivity for making new
discoveries nod investigating every cor
ner of their artificial homo. JSach trough
ia fm-niahi'd with a set of wiro trays made
fast in tho waters by means or small
wedges, and can be removed from pince
to placo at will. The eggs, when taken
frost thc crates In which thoy are packed,
sro. ul&ecd on thom wire toura and
v&tcucd attentively, ovory day" until
hatched, when tho t?ays arc removed and
the fesh allowed to swim at will In the
troughs, there remaining but IHtle to do
tho wire ?creeos. 8uch is the..usual
modo of hatching ibis variety of fishes
but by no moans tho only one.

nea? where they aro taken, on account of
their extreme, doUeate nature and. th?
?hort epaco of timo required iu hatching,
ft being usually from four to five day?.
.Tho advantages of artificial * propagation
over nature ia readily seen when wo Bub
mit a fo w figur?s on the subject. A good
average female shad yields about twonty

'This is the third season since shad
were artificially propagated and placed in
t.t?rtorValid;ibif (Steh exceed, that
for many ye?rs provient It wouldscera
f?lr to attribute the increase to artlfloial
propagation. There are those who do
not believe that tho fish ever return to
tha waters'in which they were released,
who have never given the matter much
thought, and are ignorant of the habits
of the fish and the laws governing them.
Wheo we eonsidr-r tbat for the small sum
of twenty-five cents we can place a
thousand shad io a river, when matured
will weigh from four to seveu pounds
each, and sell readily for fifty to seventy*
five cents In our markets, it Is worthy
our best efforts, and proper that every
means should he used to add this cheap
irticio to our food supply.
THE (JBEAT WEST.
Resources oftlte Lands TReyond the Mis
sissippi.
The United States is as yet compara
tively, in its infancy. Heretofore impu
tation has been'confined to the eastern
{>ortioo of the continent, oven though it
a much of it rough and unproductive.
Tho richer portion, the central! waa iiid
away until now. Men traveled over it,
and aaid it was desert cr valueless.
Grasshoppers swarmed from it, and men
said people never csa live there; but
they are living there, and thousands moro
are coming. Some of the land that WAS
called worthless may how be bought for
five dollars per acre, other for twenty-five
dollars, and there ia considerable call for
it. For example, the demand this year
for lands io the Ked River Valley nf the
North has been unprecedented. In
April the St. Paul, Minneapolis & Man
itoba Railroad Company auld 27,401
acres; and since January 1,1880, this
company bas sold 118.039 acres, the ave*
rogo price being four dollars ana seventy*
three cents per aero. Undoubtedly,
other land-grunt roads huvo sold in the
sarao proportion.
It may be asked if there is mueh of
this lana. Looking from the Mississippi
River to the Pacific wc seo an area 2 4-10
times as large as all that part of the
Union east of that river to the Atlantic.
This great Weat would make thlrty-sovou
Btatea as targe as Illinois, which was
once called a largo State. When this
western territory is as densely populated
as Illinois waa in 1870 even, it will havo
over ninety-six million people, whereas
it nnw h?s only ono-fiflh our population.
3urelv there ia 'much land yet to be pos
sessed, of tho very best sort, too-somo
of it.
An observing traveler in western Ne
braska recently said : "Tho land hore
ivttB trodden down hard by tho buffalo
nnd herds of cattle roaming over it. So
that whoo rain fell it did not penetrate
below the dry sod ; but aa soon OB tho
land is broken np, and the soil pulver
ized on the turfoce, the rain wets down
In some places fifteen feet." If thia be
true, we DI ay expect that all these vast
grazing areas will be cut up into farms,
und owned hy tho industrious people who
come to tho* agricultural States to moko
themselves homes. This same gentle*
man said : "Some idea of tho rush of
emigrants to Nebraska this year could be
gathered from the fact that on the first
week of March. 1870, tho Chicago, Bur
lington & Quincy Railroad took sixty*
'.hreo car loads of emigrants into Ne*
irsska at Plattsmouth ; while on the
Irst week of March, 1880, the samo com
pany took 169 car leads cf emigrants
uta tho Stato at tho. samo place." This
s only a repetition of what is being done
>n all tho trunk lines from St. Louis to
Duluth.
What are the possibilities of this great
and? It ia tho land of bread. Tnko
Illinois and Iowa--the former has 85,
102,400 ncres, the tatter 35,228,800. In
me yeer Illinois produced 283,081,000
M?u?i of corn, 25,329,020 of wheat, and
>G,519,140of oats ; and both States pro*
luccd 510,832,772 bushels of corn, wheat
md oats. Minnesota has 53,459,8-10
tores, and of this 41,000,000 arabio land,
tn ono year, with one-tenth of this forty
n?Her? acres under tbs plew, its soil pro?
lucod 31,475,000 bushels or wheat, 25,*
r7?,000 of corn, and ??600,000 of oats,
haking 50.250,000 in all ; when tho full
?opacity of tho State is called for, it can
produce half a billion bushels. But
Vest of her la Dakota, almost three limes
is .largo as Illinois, and from present
iroxpects will surpass even Minnesota as
t wheat-growing Stato ; and west of
Dakota is Montana, having 03,000.000
tores,.(I givo round numbers) ; of these
16,000,000 are agricultural ; 38,000,000
pasing; 12,000,000 timber ; 5,000,000
nineral ; 22,000,000 mountains-so it is
laid. < 'Her grazing and agricultural arcas
ure one-half larger than Illinois. Mr.
Sargent, general manager of the North*
?rn Pacific Railroad, says the cattlo in
tomo of these valleys graso ail the winter,
ind fatten all tho timo. Tho specimens
if wheat raised, he says, aro a much
arger berry than even tho Red River
?heat, yet this vast .empira has hardly
leen tnkon into account; very likely, m
icon as tho Northern Pacific is completed
t will attract immigration. Then tho
(thor great territories must havo each

rul Nissa, "the sun of womeu," born in
thc wilderness during her parents' jour
ney to India, was at that timo in tho full
bloom of girlish beauty, happiness and
pros|M5iity.
"She was clothed in glistening gauzo
and satin, dancing the dance of ber na
tive land, and singing tho songs of Dal kh
for the amusement of the queen.
* * Poor M?hal'a beauty was not tho
mere surface beal ?y of form and color, of j
which men tire in week ; it was a more
ethereal attraction. You hardly knew
in her whether you admired body or spir
it. (She had a tall figure, a'cypress waist,'
a walk more free and indenent than most !
women-a walk acquired from her moth- _
er, and rare among tho shuffling steps of j
women reared in the harem, tier head
was small and proudly carried on ber

curves. She had a smo!l oval face, witii

she coveted royal rank, and she loved and
vas beloved by Prince Selim, the Empo
or's eon. - He besought his lather to an
lui Nour Mahal's engagement, but tho
Smporor was too just to accede the re
Hic-.it. The girl's father also wu? opposed
o giving his daughter to Prince f-jelim,
Irunkcn, debauched, cruel, ferocious,
tnd given to violent bursts of rogo. As
o Shore Afghan little recked be of the
Prince's rivalry or of tho danger which
night ensue, aad he would havo been a
?rid man who dared to proposa to him
lint ho should break oh" the match. Tho
narriage accordingly took piuco when
ih?ro Afghan wasonly 25, ana his bride a
ew years younger. When on tho wed
ling day Noor Mahal was first seen uu
roiled by her noble hoarted IIUH
mnd, her only remark was, "How

'Fio upon thee, child" cried her mother,

"Shere Afghan was paying a friendly

high-handed government erV.tcd discon

growing influence, she was jealous, she
nearly loat her husband his crown. In a
desperate battle between tho Imperial
army and Mobabit Khan she placed her
self in the van, and, though wounded,
emptied four quivers.full of arrows. Je*
h Augire WA?, however, defeated, and
Mohnbit extorted from Jehangire the
condemnation to death of Noor Mahal.
8ho succeeded io obtaining an interview
with the Emperor, who burst into tears
on seeing her, and interceded for her
lifo with Mohnbit. He chivalrously re
plied: "The Emperor of thc Moguls
should never nek in vain," and Noor
Mahal escaped. Mahabit had reason be
fore long to regrets bis generosity. Noor
Mahal soon re established her power, and
the first use she made of it was to beseech
the Emperor to order Mobabit'* excution.
On bis- refusal nhs attempted privato as
sasainaton, but1 was urtHUccesvrfdl; and
soon after Jehangire died. Owing to the
fact of her daughter bciug his successor's
favorite wife, Noor Mahal pawed the rest
of her life unmolested, but without influ
ence. She died and was buried at La*
boro. Thus ended neacefully the stormy
and adventurous lifo of one of the most
remarkable women of any age.-Invasion*
of India. '
- The havoc of tho army-worm among
the farms bf New Jersey and Long Is
land bids fair to bo complote sind without
remedy. Tho vineyard and farm lands
of Burlington and Ocean Counties, New
Jersoy, a tract greater than that lately
burned over, are being eaten clean by the
f>ests, and a largo portion of Loug Inland
a being overrun by them, though the
multitude is thickest on the south side
around Islip, Amityville and Freeport.
They in ii rel? in solid column, eating ev
erything na they go; corn-fields are
ruined in a night, and wheat, rye, oats, bar
ley and grass fall before them, and noth
ing but clover escapes, them. At Baby*
Inn the- road* ?re black, at Westhampton'
and Mattltuck they aro likened to tho
sands of tho seashore, and their advance
through the grass can bo plainly heard.
Tho worst thing about it is that the far
mers seem utterly, helpless ; nono of. tho
usual remedies have been successful ;
Paris green and London purple havo no
apparent effect, and their number is PO
great that tar proves but n temporary
check. Many of the farmers nro there
fore cutting their half-ripe grain to nBo
for foddor. Prof. Riley, tho Government
entomologist, will visit Long Island, but
bay? little cnn bo done now, and that the
only sure protection is to burn tho stubble
in winter or early spring. The only hope
of tho farmers uow is that a prolonged
period of hot weather will check the
creature?.

from bad to worse. It is not only the
row in Albauia or the frightful state of
things in Armenia. Anarchy ia eating
into tho heart of the empire* Tho dis
organization in tho capital ia only less
than that in tho Provinces. There is no
public revenue. Tho officials squeeze
the taxpayer.!, but is like drawing blood,
from turnips. . Nut a single promise or
undertaking entered into by the Turkish
government with respect to tho internal
administration of tito country has been
observed, and what is thought most
ominous in tho future is that tho Sultan
protests so much.
: -There ia not only a great deal in the
urtoffeayitig-ibingi). but of doing things

man comic paper, wh'ch had a picture of
fi you th astride of a horst, which tho boy's
Tatlier was anxious to dispose of to a cus

rance of tho nature of the bargain, is rep
resented a" leaning forward and in an
ludibio w' ' q>er asking bis parent : "Fa

- St. Augustine Fla., has always' been"
accounted tho moat ancisnt town lo the
republic. While a landing wan made
.here by Spaniards as curly as 1512, tboro
was no settlement until fifty-three years,
later, when a fort was built, fixing its age,
:o date, at 315. This honor of antiquity
ls uaw disputed by a Western village,
Tucson, Arizona, organized, it is claim*

1642, nearly " twenty-three years earlier
:hau the votllement of St. Augustine. It
lias over Since kept up its right to the
tractof land which is by Spanish law
?ranted to an Incorporated settlement.
- There aro several flourishing schnola

- Gen. Joseph E. Johnston is credited
with saying of that dashing rebel caval

A Ginr. ON BOYS.-Boya n>& not?llke
?irla ; they are different. A boy likes to
?pin a top, fly a kite, or ride a horse, or go
% fishing; but if.you call-it work, then
they won't unless they aro whipped. I
Jon't think it would bo fun to go fishing
md fall in tho creek and not get out, ana
Irov. n, and have your mother say you had
been In swimming, though I expect they
san swim as weil aa boya, if they know
iiow. A turtle can awim faster than a
boy, but a dogfish eau beat them both.
Dogfishes aro not good to eat, but a dog
:nn bue belier ip?? usu.
Boys like to go with girls ; when they
Jon't go with thorn, it ia because they don't
want to. not because thoy can't. Boys
like io kiss giris. One kissed m? orien ;
I see lotajofgirls here that would liko to
bo kisses ;; bus they mus*, not av* depend
an--well; I won't say now. Somebody
in this town told me it was rio fun tb Idas
a girl when her mother was looking. I
?aid t "Did you ever *ry it ?" He asid :
'?Y-e-a."
When boys get married, they general
ly .marry a girl; though I hove known
nome old boya who marry a girl's mother.
E guess that was because the mother waa
willing and tho girl wasn't.
If I hadn't been a girl, I guess I'd been
ahoy. If I was a boy I would like tho
5iris. My ma calls moa tomboy some
men, but tomboys don't like the girls.
Ihat's all I know about boys.

FATAL RESULT OE A RKI?OONTKK BE
TWK?'N BROTHEBB.-For ?orno time psst
a bad state of feeling has existed between
Cy. and Tom Campbejl. coiorrd broth
ers, who live un tho Kiatler place about
a mile and a half South west of town. Cy.
has for some time, it is alleged, carried a
razor for his brotherhood I* charged fur
the< with having said that he would an
soon kill him as a snake. Laut Saturday
they fell out over some trivial matter, and
Cy. ran Tom out of the house. Tom is
smaller than the other, and a cripple.
Having cursed and abused him at a
great rate, the aggressor followed him out
of the door, with the supposed purpose of
doing violence to hint, when Tom Rei zed
a . hoe, and, after a warning which
waa unheeded, struck the pursuer over
tho head with it. Cy. fell and had to bo
carried in the house. It was evident
that he was badly hurt. Dr. M. W. Hill
was called in arid, probed the wound and
found a severe fracture. Monday he
and Dr. Anderson went to remove tho
broken bone from oiT the brai* and took
out several pieces of tho skull. The brain
was badly bruited and the man lay in an
unconscious state until Wednesday noon
when.he died. A post mortem examina
tion revealed that the who!? left side of
tho skull had beeb broken from tho arch
down the forehead to the orbital bone.
The slayer continued plowing from the
time he dealt the blow until Wednesday
morning, when he voluntarily came to
town, surrendered himself tn Justice
Stimson and was committed tu jail.
