Clergymen's Salaries,, Soota of the more distinguished of New York's clergymen will not suffer the pangs of hunger right away if their salaries are any indication of their abund­ ance of the comforts of this life. The preacher who receives the highest salary in this country is the Bev. Henry Ward Beecner. For several years past his salary has been $20,000 per annum. In addition to this, it is safe to say that he received $5,000 per annum for various lectures delivered by him in the winter seascm. His salary as editor of the Christian Union was $10,000 per an­ num, and from the Christian Union Pub­ lishing Company he one year received $10,000 for a " Life of Christ." Beside all jiSi^hi is in reeeipt of an annual in­ come as author's percentage on the sale of his works, so that his income for sev­ eral years past h >s been in the neighbor­ hood cf $40,000 per annum. His salary this year, it will be remembered, was raised to $100,000. The Rev. Dr. John Hall has a salary of $10,000, gold, per Mirinm) and he also adds to his income bv writing and lecturing. The Bev. Dr. Hepworth, of the Church of the Dis­ ciples, was in receipt of a salary of $10,- 000 per annum until recently. The Bev. Dr. Storrs, of the Churcn of the Pil­ grims, Brooklyn, Receives a salary of $10,000 per annum. He was offered an advanced salary by one of the New York Ouugregafciopti churches some time ago, but was induced to remain with ^his old charge. The Rev, Dr. Budingto % also one* of the best known of Brooklyn pas­ tors, receives $10,000 per annum. The Bev. Dr. I&orgaii Djsr, the Hector of Trinity, reediVes $10,000 per annum, lie lias L w O or tlrrco nsawttmts, who re­ ceive- from $4,000 to $6,000 each. The senior minister of St. Paul's reoeives $10,000, and his assistoui $4,COO. The Bev. Dr. Weston, for many years th pastor of St. John s Church, receives $10,000 salary, and has an assistant at $4,000. The pastor who officiates at Trinity £Mpei also receives $10,000, and has orife Or more assistants,. The Bev.

Country Gentlemen. Fish Culture In Iowa. ' The F jah CommiasioHeiaj of low* hi»ve issued their first report, and it is a pam­ phlet of great interest. It not only States what has been done in the work of gfrwAiTig Iowa, lakes mad rivers with the gamiest fish, but contains a large amount of information in regard to the Science of pisciculture. It was only two year* ago that the Legislature of Iowa by an sot ereated the Board of Commissioners, and set aside $3,000 to aid them in starting this noble enterprise. With that small ap­ propriation a hatching house 20x40 feet, and two stories high, was erected near Anamosa, Jones County, mider the su­ pervision of Mr. B B. Shaw, a resident of that place, and one of the Commis­ sioners. The $3,000 not only paid for the house, but also the salary cf an as­ sistant and a great number of fish which have been distributed. From the report we learn that, in accordance with an act of the last General Assembly, all dams erected during the last two years have had fish-ways built under the supervision of the Commissioners. The cost of these fish-ways varies from $50 to $1,000, ac­ cording to height of fall, amount of water, character of the dam, and other circumstances. The law requiring the building of these fish-ways was a wise enactment, indispensable to the success of the enterprise, and thus far has been strictly complied with. But the work of th© General Assembly under this head is not completed. A general law requiring fish-ways to be constructed on all dams must be enacted, otherwise the labors of the Commissioners will he of very little avail. By making the work general, all the people will be benefited, and the value of property all over the State will be greatly enhanced. There is, no doubt, wisdom enough in the legislative body now in session to see this point, and that the needed law is secured. New York, Michigan and other States are devoting $10,000 or $15,000 annually t« pisciculture, and Iowa will need from $5,000 to $7,000 to carry forward the grand enterprise which she has com­ menced. Certain kinds of fish, not yet introduced, ha7e to be transported in aquariums, and many other outlays will bte neoessary in order to perfeot the work so nobly begun, and make it a paying enterprise" to the commonwealth. The States which started years ago in fish culture are reaping a rich reward for the expenditure of funds, and Iowa, 80 noted for enterprise in many respects, will not t in this. h|li era a great deal of unnecessary work, which, by a little forethought, might be dis­ pensed with. I do not now speak of those who fail to provide themselves with proper im^ lements for doing work, and in this way waste time, enough each year to more than replace them with the best and most approved patterns. I intend to speak of inconveniences i om •? of which exist on almost every farm. All are said to have their failures in some particular, no matter how well arranged their bus­ iness may be as a whole. I have seen premises apparently wall ordered other­ wise; which were provided with neither post or hook where a visitor could bitch a horse. Not one in a hundred is pro­ vided with a horseshed. I know an old man, now four score, who has always drawn his manure and produce through a deep slough, between his bain and field. Ten dollars expended in labor would have made a good road. The sav­ ing in p, single year would have more than repaid the outlay, to say nothing of the increased comfort of aU concerned. A neighbor has for years drawn his hay on wood wagons which would not carry mora than half a load. The extra time wasted in loading and unloading, every year, would furnish good conven­ ient hay racks. I knew a man who drew all the water for his stock in a leaky milk can attached to « rope. Half the water escaped before reaching the trough. I once knew a whole neighborhood who depended on one long cart which went A Spanish Ntte of Explanation* The Spanish Government has sent to its representatives abroad a memoran­ dum, instructing them to read it to for­ eign Ministers, and to leave a copy if required. The memorandum, after pointing out that the Cuban insurrection is no longer led by natives of the island, hut, by foreign adventurers, continues : " Negroes, mulattoes, Chinese, and de­ serters form the bulk of the insurgent forces. Their army contains scarcely 800 white Cubans, while more than 40, 000 of the latter are serving with the Royal volunteers. Spain cannot come to any terms with such elements. She can only, after having obtained a com­ plete victory, grant to Caba all the lib­ erties which, but for the insurrection, she would already possess, and which the neighboring island of Porto Bico, where slavery has been entirely abol­ ished, enjoys. Reinforcements number­ ing 28,000 men have been dispatched to Cuba within twelve months. The dura­ tion of the insurrection is in. consequence of the difficulties of the country. Not­ withstanding the insurrection, the trade of Cuba has doubled during ten years. The more fertile parts of the island are untouched by the insurrection, and only *z~vf Jlioti'lcts Lavo Duifudd from it. All foreigners sustaining losses will be in­ demnified, and the uuib^go on foreign goods will be raised." The memorandum i« considered as an reply t»* tlw last note from the United State*.. «This is Sleep Year." A few days since, a Whitelialler called to pay Ms respects to a lady. He was obliged to wait in the parlor for some time for her to dress. As the gentleman had been, broken of. his rest the previous night, he unconsciously fell asleep. The lady entered the parlor soon afterward, and, comprehending the state of affairs^ and wishing to enjoy a joke at the K«n- tleman'e expense, she sat down in a chair on the opposite side of the stove to await the awakening, and enjoy the astonish­ ment of her caller. In a few moments a feeling of drowsiness began to creep over the fair one. She finally dropped off, fast asleep. The gentleman awoke, and, taking in the situation, thought he would turn the joke on his fair^ joker. Taking a card he wrote on it: "My dear Miss : As this is sleep year, I will­ ingly aooord you the privileges that you? sex is entitled to once in four years. Sleep on, fair friend, yours."-- Whitehall (Mich.) Times. , The Work at Pompeii. In the work of excavations steadily progressing at Pompeii, there was re­ cently uncovered a series of wooden tablets containing the accounts of a banker named Lucius Eccilius Jocurulns. They were inclosed in a small wooden box which had been considerably charred on the outer surface. The leaves of the tablets are thin aa pasteboard, and are tied together in sets of threes by a cord passing through holes in the edges. The outer pages, serving as covers, are clean and smooth, and the inner ones are coated with wax, and filled with accounts, which appear to be mainly records of loans. Near the tablets was found a bronze bust of the banker, bearing his name. From forty to sixty men are continually employed in the excavations under a subsidy from the Government of 600,000 fmncs. Up to date two-fifths of the area of the city have been exam- Cambric Dresses for Spring. Harper's Bazar says: The furnish-* ing houses are busily manufacturing cambric and gingham suits for spring. These are made of checked, striped, and plaid Scotch ginghams, or else of per­ cales or cambrics in gingham plaids of old-time pink and white, of blue with pray, or perhaps shaded brown. There is very little of noveltv in the manner of making The lower skirts are arranged ao that they train slightly in the house, or may be shortened for the street. One Or two bias-gathered scanty flounces is the trimming. The overskirt is & long «p*on doped to the figure, with full back breadths that are caught, up in a puff behind by means of a sash of the dress material. An end of this sash is sewed into the side and then a large, long-looped bow is tied in the middle. This draws the front smoothly over the figure, and the back breadths are pulled over the sash in a puff. This skirt has the advantage of being easily ironed, «m the sash and back breadths are readfl; straightened out. A single dee pocket is on the front. Ahem, or other plain edge, such as a striped border, is more in keeping with these skirts than a ruftie or pleating. 'Die body may be a belted basque or a side- pleated waist, or else the baby waists or blouses once so popularly worn. New belted basques have the side forms of the back beginning on the shohhiers in­ stead of in the armholes, thus making the Jong seams now used in all corsages. The neck is finished with an English collar that is very high behind, and is turned over in white points in front. The sleeves are ordinary coat shape, with very simple cuff, or else with a pleating that falls over the wrist. SHE couldn't find the tack-hammer, and Dobson complained that she looked too cursorily. He'd have to find it him­ self, he presumed. "Yes," said Mrs. D., "I wish you would. You won't look long till you curse orally, too." And he didn't. A WASH that would usually take aU day with ordinary soap, can be done in three hours, with Dobbins' Electric soap (made by Cragin & Co., Philadelphia), and it cannot injure the finest fabric. Try it.
