kept soiindin" eontinually whndi
was ’Jo fathoms. It blew pretty
fresh in the be^inidn^ of the ni^hl.
About I’J o'eloek it was very squally.
About that time we ^ot upon a shoal
in live fathoms of water and ex
pected every minute to strike. I’ml
thanks be to Providence, it proved
otherwise All hands were called to
hoist sail and put out to sea which
we did after a jjreat deal of trouble;
hit ajrain: we put her olT the shoal
the same way she came on and stood
to sea the remainder of the ni^ht
with as much sail as we could carry.
In t he morn in:' we espied land at
about three lenities distant I ►caring
from us \V by X and proved to be the
Jersey shore at Little Iv.'i' Harbor
which was a beautiful sioht to ns.
We had a line view of tin* beach
which appeared with line rows of
trees a little way from itsedire. and
the hills raisin*: their heads which
were covered with lofty pines, ^ave
one the most satifaetory views that
over my eyes beheld. About Jo clock
we ;^ot a pilot on board amidol inside
the lighthouse that ni*:hl, ten miles
up the rivet, when we eame to for
the ni^ht in JO fathoms of water.
We slept but little, as every person
was Hushed with joy for our safe ar
rival. Next morning we hail the
wind ahead, and eame on to rain very

Withal we made but \t* 1*3 slow work
of it as is was ni^ht when we om| up.
(in our way up the river, we passed
hv three forts with •'arrisons in
each—they beino t hree small islands
in the river. Their names are Gov
ernor's, Kllis' and lledlow's Islands,
tiovernor's is the largest. It is on
the south side of the bay. It has
two twenly-*_'un batteries and is situ
ated in a very advantageous position,
as any vessel that comes up mils*
pass between the two islands of lled-
low's and tiovernor’s. There area
tine twenty-oun battery and a sev-
e|ll ee||Tj:U II hill I "I'V at the fort ol the
harbor. rh* i re Isa beautiful walk
all around this battery where all the
•»eiitry of the city lake tin* air every
eveiiiuo and mornino. It is the only
place in the city to see the best of
company. It is a very pretty place,
bavin*: a line, ijrcen field all around
and is enclosed with a line railing',
and the river on the front makes it
look beautiful.
New York is situated on a small is
land of the same name, lo miles lolly:

and on the other side is the Hudson,
or the North river, which divides it
from Jersey State. I'his river is nav-
joable for hll’oe vessels Up as far as
Hudson which is Pin miles up the
river. Small vessels "o as far as

The doctors, in truth, have accumu
lated ft great stock of knowledge as to
food. They know what ought to be
bitten and drunk. They know what
ought to Is* refused, anil they know,
within the limits fixed by climate and
labor, what are tin* beneficial quantities
to be consumed, but they have entirely
failed to make their knowledge perme
ate the world. The educated have only
glimmering ideas as to what their chil
dren should eat. Half of them, till a
few vears ago, bad a sort of horror of
sugar, one of the most nourishing of all
substances—and the uneducated have
positively 110 ideas on the subject. They
just eat and give their children what
they can get. It maybe said that this is
inevitable, Is •cause the majority in till
countries are too poor to do anything
else, hut is that true?
We are not pretending to he experts,
hut if we understand what professionals
say much of the licst food produced m
the world is also thechcajiesf. Oatmeal,
for example, is very much liettcr than
wheat bread and infinitely hi tter than
rye bread, and it is cheaper than either.
Hardly anything in the world is as
nourishing as lentils, which might he
sold much cheaper than bread, and
eaten, too, with dripping, an invaluable
combination. Millet, on which the big
races of India grow »o tall and strong,
might, if there were a demand for if in
Europe, Im* far cheaper than wheat, and
so might “corn flour,” on which Ken
tuckians, the strongest race in America,
arc bred, though that requires mixtures
with a less nitrogenous diet.—London
