The light boose and the bouses are iu a thicket of low jack oaks, that hide the sea from the dwellings.— Burk of them is a beautiful grove. This thicket of oaks is alive with mocking birds, that sing all hours of the day and night. They are always undisturbed, and almost as tame as chickens. One flew in my face, and followed me up, scolding me vehe mently. I suppose he was accusing me of trespassing. The thing that struck me most' foroibly was the cleanliness of every thing. That light house is certainly the most spotless place that has yet been discovered. Everything is painted, whitewashed, scrubbed and scoured to tbo uttermost extent. The light is a stationary light. The one just above, on St. Simons Island, is a flash light This is managed by glasses that produce the effect of dimness, then the light grows strong mid stronger, then lessens again. THE NEW SIIA INDUSTRY, The greatest incentive to engage in silk culture is the knowledge that there is a home market for $16,000,- worth oi floss, which American man ufacturers are obliged to import from foreign lands. The other considera tion is that silk culture furnisheB wo men and children in the rural districts with a congenial occupation that does not require constant attention, and so will not interfere with house hold duties. In view of these facts, the Women’s Silk Culture Association of Philadel phia was organized two years ago for the purposs of calling the attention of the women of this country to the opportunity given them to establish a new industry, both suitable and prof itable, and also to give the necessary instructions to all desiring to engage in silk eulturp. The success of this pioneer associa tion is remarkable. There has been aronsed a wide-spread interest in the cultivation of cocoons, that must go on increasing until the aim of the as sociation is fulfilled. June last a lunch room was opened, which proved a success, the receipts being $5,000. The association now numbers 233 members, and expects to extend its work in other directions the coming year. Probably no woman bas held office under this government for a longer period than did Mrs. Margaret Silly- men, postmistress of Pottsville, Penn., who died recently. She was appoint ed by President Lincoln, and entered apon the duties of her office April 20, 1861. She was re-appointed succes sively by Presidents Johnson, Grant .twice, Hayes and Garfield, and bad she lived another week, would have completed twenty-one years of offi cial service.

It differs, however, from a revolving light. The hitter is now and then totally eclipsed. This happens when the dark side of tlie lantern is turned toward the be holder. The light on Anastasia land, off the coast of St Augustine, is of this latter sort. % We went out on the little iron bal cony just outside the light. It is a slippery, dangerous place, and I could not help thinking of the consequences if ray feet should slip. But all things must cud. So time brought our excursion to a close. We walked back to where we had left our boat, viewing the remnants of a whale that was scattered along the beach, and saw an engaging young shark m the water tnrn over and snap up n fish. How his jaws did oorne togeth er! When we came to where our boat had been, wu found it was there no longer. The tide had come in, and the breakers were roaring be tween the canoe ami the land. The ladies walked on to calm wn- t-r, while the “crew” took off bis clothes, made a bundle of them, put them on his head, and swam out to the boat. We waited for it to come to us, down where the surf conned but tbo bench ran >>ut so fur beuoatb the wutcr that the (mat could not come to us. There was no other al tentative bnt for us to go to the boat, so we heroically waded out, regard less of consequonces. Whon we were once there, we bore a strong resem blance to "The lassie dragg. «l her petticoat*, Coming through the rye." But salt water gives no cold, and the only results of the jaunt and the wetting were an immense appetite for supper and sound sloep that night. Anoele C. Davis A Peculiar occupation. The sudden increase of wealth among certain classes of people set a young man to thinking how he could share in it. t He noticed that many of those "new rich” were without the advantages of an early education He therefore advertised in a New York paper that he would undertake to supply them. He sneoeeded far beyond his expectations. According to a New York correspondent, his plan is to give an hour or a half-hour a day to men and women of the sort be describes. On one day he reads and explains the Hems in the daily newspapers; another day he takes up the authors, poets, um.sicaus, books and plat's of the time; again he treats of the etiquette of the piirlor and din ing room, and so on. But every now and then some lady, sweeping out of a carriage, and laden wi.h furs, silks and jewels, tells him she can neither read nor write, and then he bas to work in earnest, fie writes love let ters, poetry and advertisements; car ries on one side .«t a lover's corre spondence, and buttles with rich men who lire anxious t. • mid Latin or Green to their accomplishments.

This fact was most forcibly present ed at the last exhibition of the associ ation, at which the display of cocoons was very fine and interesting. The chief feature of the exhibition wns the display of specimen cocoons by the twenty-six contestants for the Straw- bridge & Cfothior premiums. The first one of which, by the way, was carried off by Mrs. Rebecca Taylor (mother of the late Bavard Taylor), who is over 82 years of age, and a sufferer from paralysis. The association announces that through the liberality of Messrs. Strawbridge k Clothier, the well known dry goods merehaqts of Phila delphia, it is again enabled to offer to the silk culturists the sum of $500 in ten premiums, as follows: First pre mium, $100; second premium $75; third, $65; fourth, $60; fifth, $50; sixth, $45; seventh, $40; eighth, $30; ninth, $25; tenth premium, $10, For these premiums any resident of the United states may contest. From tbo ten largest amounts of cocoons, one pound will be tnken, without selec tion, unit the test of reeling' applied; the quantity mid quality will be the conditions for premiums. Applica tion for competition must be endorsed and the amount of this year’s cocoons raised by the cnlturist, testified to by some responsible person. Stock must be sent not later than December 1, 1882. Anyone with sufficient land to grow a few mulberry trees can add the roaring of silk worms to the daily care and find it a source of ploasure and profit. The work occupies but n small portion of tho year, and n child can attend to the daily gathering of leaves und feeding the worms. If a supply of mnlbery leaves conn ot be bad, an osage orange hedge will an swer evory purpose. The usage or ange leaf is admirable food for tile silk worms, from which they spin splendid silk.
