nod in 1484 twenty verari* were Robing
ia thwf nori hern arm. The Icelander
apparently look* with wonder at the su
periority not only of the Gloucester ve
aeli, hut at the excellence of their tilling
apparatus. Mr. Thorsteinaoa. describ
ing a Gloucester schooner, writes that a*
to construction, rigging, and sails, she
"coaki not be distinguiahed from an
KnJlfh pleasure host." The compari- i

last year by the Gloucester craft. These
Northern halibut will weigh sometimes
•100 pounds. As the halibut on the
Grand Banks arc decreasing, the supply
of these tish, it is probable, will be taken
in the future ftom Icelardic waters.
"When the Vikings first reached Iceland,
using it as a stepping stone for the dis
covery ot shores not so far distant to the
westward, could they have ever fancied
that a race of men wauld have been born
who in their turn should start from the
west and seek Iceland once more?
American trout have been successively

The well known action of carnivorous
plants, living on the land, presupposes
the existence of a similar fauna in the
water. Land plants catch insects, water
plants fish. Both want nitrogenous
rood, and take it where they can find it.
A Mr. Simms, of Oxford, whs the first to
direct attention to the Utricuturia vul
garis which caught small fish, hold
ing them firmly between the valves of
the bladders or this voracious plant.
When Mr. Darwin studied the roots of
the carnivorous plant he found these to
be but little developed. It became, then,
a necessity for the existence of the plant
to find nutriment elsewhere. ’Die same
parallelism is found in the piscivorous
water plants.
Clams, undoubtedly of Atlantic origin,
are now found on the Pacific coast, in
18119-70 oysters were taken from the At
lantic to Han Francisco bay. It is quite
probable that Spat of the Myawere thus
conveyed. . Home adult clams were prob
ably taken to the coast of Washington
Territory. Examinations of shell heaps
left by fortnur races on the California
coast show no fragment of shell belong
ing to our common Atlantic clam.
If a ton of fish is etpial in weight to
twenty-eight sheep, and the total catch
of fish made by tho United Kingdom,
Canada, Russia and the United (States
aggregates 1,000,000 tons, that is about
in weight equivalent to about 28,000,-
000 sheep. As to the comparative value
of fish and animal flesh, there would be
more nutriment in the sheep. Still the
amount of food furnished by fish to man
is enormous. According to Mulhall, in
F.urope and America 150,000 ves
eels are employed in fishing, and between
<IOO,OOO anu 700,000 men are employed.
The Philadelphia Press writes; “Eng
Itsh economists maintain that the
haphazard and improvident meth
ods of fishing are exhaust
ing. the fish supply of that
country as surely as mining is exhausting
the supply of coal. The supply of many
kinds of fish is rapidly diminishing, and
the ouly way to check titc waste is by \
a systematic study of the conditions j
which regulate tho supply. * * *
With the increased demand for food,
and with abundant evidence from other
countries of the result of neg'ect we
should rather increase than relax onr
efforts to understand more about the
food, habits, spawning, and propagation
of our tish in risers, lakes and the sea,
in order that the harvest may not grow
leas as tho demand becomes moro ur
gent.”
When salmon was first canned on the
Pacific side, in order to introduce the
prepared salmon Mr. Ilume used to fill
a basket with cans of salmon and give
them away. The man who did this put
up last year some HO.'OOO cases of canned
salmon, each containing forty -eight one
pound cans. In describing the fisher
men engaged in cutcliing salmon the
statement is made that the Finns,
Swedes, Norwegians, and Russians are
reliable and industrious fishermen, but
that the Italians aud Portuguese are not.
When a fisherman is intemperate he runs
a great risk of death, because the slight
est mistake made in handling a boat re
sult* in drowning. The gigantic break
ers where the ocean and river currents
meet, on the Columbia river, overwhelm
a careless fisherman.
Mr. Worthington, United States con
sul At Malta, writes to the state depart
ment that year by year the supply of
fish has been decreasing in Maltese
waters, and to such an extent that the
poorer classes on the island arc unable to
buy fish at all owing to the enhanced
price. The lieutenant-governor of
Malta writes to the American consul
stating that he is directed by the gov
ernor to ask whether the United States
will not furnish the. Malta government
with information, and “that such infor
mation in regard to means of increasing
the supply of fish will be gratefully re
ceived and highly appreciated by the
governor and the Maltese people.”
The Baiting ot herring roes in Norway
is an important branch of business, the
bulk of the roes goiug to France, where
they are used in catching sardines. The

Porpoise fishing off Hatteras, North ‘
Carolina, looks as if it were likely to !

How l.laeoln Came la Washington.
Klihu B. Wnshburae says in the .VrfA
Amertra* Hit its. There has been a great
deal printed in the newspaper* about
Mr. Lincoln's arrival in Washington,
and about the “Scotch cap” and “big
shawl” he wore through Baltimore, etc.,
most of which is mere stuff. 1 propose
now to tell about bis arrival at Wash
ingtou. from my own |rsonal know
ledge—what I saw with my own eyes
ar.d what I heard with my own ears, not
the eyes and ears of someone else. As
I have stated, I stood behind the pillar
awaiting the arrival of the train. When
it came to a stop I watched with fear
and trembling to see the passengers de
scend. I saw every car emptied, and
there wag no Mr. Lincoln. I was well
nigh in despair, and when about to leave
I saw slowly emerge from the last sleep
ing car three persona. I could not mis
take the long, lank form of Mr. Lincoln,
and my ncart bounded with joy
and gratitude. He had on a soft, low
crowned hat, a muffler around his neck,
and a short, bob tailed overcoat. Any
one who knew him at that time
could not have failed to recog
nize him at once, but I must con
fess he looked more like a well-to do
farmer from one of the back towns of do
Davies’ county coining to Washington
to see the city, take out his land warrant
and get the patent for bis farm, than the
President of the United States. The
only persons that accompanied Mr. Lin
coln were Pinkerton, the well known
detective, recently deceased, and Ward
11. Latnan. When they were fairly on
the platform, and a short distance from
the car, I stepped forward and accosted
the President, “How are you. Lincoln?”
At this unexpected and rather familiar
salutation the gentlemen were apparently
somewhat startled, but Mr. Lincoln,
who had recognized me, relieved them
at once by remarking in his peculiar
voice: “This is only Washburn!” Then
we all exchanged congratulations and
walked out to the front of the station,
whore I had a carriage in waiting. En
tenng the carriage (all four of us> we
drove rapidly to Willard's hotel, enter
ing on Fourteenth street, before it was
fairly daylight. Tho porter showed us
into the little receiving-room at the head
of the stairs, and at my direction went
to the office to have Mr. Lincoln assigned
a room. We had not been in the hotel
more than two minutes before Governor
Howard hurriedly entered, much out of
breath,and somewhat chagrined to think
he had not been up in season to be at
tho station on the arrival of the train.
The meeting of those two great men un
der the extraordinary circumstances
which surrounded them was full of
emotion and thankfulness. I soon took
my leave, but not before promising Gov
ernor Heward that I would tuke break
fast with him at 8 o'clock.”
Animal Courage.
The sagacious horse soon learns to,
despisc a timid rider. The confidence of
, a horse in n firm rider and his own cour
| age is great, as was conspicuously
i evinced in the case of an Arab possessed
i by the late General Sir Robert R.4iil
! lespie, who, being present on the racc
! course at Calcutta during one of the
; great Hindoo festivals, when several
I hundred thousand people assembled to
I witness nil kinds of shows, was sud
' denly alarmed by the shrieks of the
crowd, and informed that n tiger had es
caped from his keeper. Sir Robert im
mediately called for his horse, and
grasping a boar spear which was in the
hands of one of the crowd, rode to at
tack his formidable enemy. The tiger
was probably amazed at finding himself
in tho middle of such a number of shriek
ing beings flying from him in all di
rections; but tite moment he perceived
Sir Robert lie crouched with tho attitude
of preparing to spriug, ant! that instant
the gallant soldier passed his horse in a
leap over the tigjr’s back and stuck tho
spear through his spine. The horse was
a small gray, alter ward sent home by
him a present to the I’rince Regent.—

lirummell, the Beau.
If Brummell had had a handsome face
his biographer, .Jessie, would probably
have told us so. An accident in the
Tenth had marred his nose, but other
wise his features were, probably, only
ordinarily good. As to his iorm, we
know that was elegaut; and that he was
altogether a very commanding gentle
man—a flawy jewel, well set. lie spent
fabulous sums on his dress, and believed
that there must be the strictest economy
to make au “elegant” presentable on
£BOO a year. For iiis toilet he had care
fully written out laws: two hours in his
bath, and two at dressing; and for a
week the following changes: Twenty
shirts, twenty-four handkerchiefs, nine
or ten pair of summer trousers, thirty
neckties, a dozen waistcoats, and socks
at discretion. After the opera, before
going to ball or supper, he always went
home to change his cravat. There was
but one blattchisseuse in London who
could give his cravats the right stiffuess,
or fold properly the plaits of his shirt
bosoms, and her he of course employed.
But when he left London he owed her
many a guinea for her pains. —Honxe

Steam Fishing for Whale.
Whale fishing in small steamers off the
coast of New England is getting to be a
business of some importance, four steam
ers (formerly catching menhaden 1 liav
iug been steadily eugaged during the
past season. They cruise off the Maine
and Massachusetts shores as far south as
Cape Cod. A bomb lance, fired from a
gun held at the shoulder is the wcapou
employed in killing the whales, about
fifty of which have been taken this year.
They will average sixty feet in length
and twenty-five tons in weight. Each
one yields about twenty barrels of oil,
two barrels of meat, five tons of dry
; chum and two tous of bone, the value
of which amounts to about S4OO. As
i the men become expert in the capture
the whales become shy snd keep more
iu deep water. This sill be fatal to the
| business, as at prea< nt conducted, since
i a dead whale usually 'inks, and can
| hardly be recovered from a depth of
1 more than forty fathom*.

Eclipses of the Sun.
The eclipses of the sun, says the
Chicago Inter-Ocean, are caused by
the moon’s passing between the earth
and the sun. If the two bodies fol
lowed the same track in the heavehs
there would be an eclipse every new
moon, but as the orbits are inclined,
the moon generally passes above or
below the sun, and there is no eclipse.
Occasionally the sun is near one of the
moon’s nodes—the points where the
planes of the orbits intersect—when it
passes, and then an eclipse occurs. If
the sun and the moon were always at
the same position with regard to the
earth, anil, always the same distance
from it, the eclipses would always be
of the same size. But as these condi
tions vary, so do the appearances of
the eclipse. For instance, let us sup
pose that at the time of an eclipse the
center of the moon happens to pass di
rect over the center of the sun. If the
moon is near the point in the orbit
which is at the letist distance from the
earth her apparent diameter will ex
ceed that of the sun. nnd the latter will
be quite hidden from view, and we
have what is known as a total eclipse.
Of course, even in this case, the eclipse
will only appear total to the observers
near the line joining the centers of the
sun aud moon. If, however, the three
bodies occupy similar positions, bat
the distance between the earth and
moon is greater, the whole of the sun
is not covered by the moon, and the
eclipse is annular. If the moon, how
ever, does not pass centrally over the
sun, it can only hide a part of the lat
ter on one side or the other, and the
eclipse is said to be partial. As the
moon's orbit is quite elliptical, the dis
tance of that body from the earth
varies greatly. Its least distance is
221,000 miles, its greatest 259,600
miles.
