Francis Goninnl, 89 Summer St.,LOW-

“His word is as good as a bank note at any
bank in Lowell, and I know it.” was the o in-
ion of a well known citizen in s leaking of ity
Assessor Francis Gomard. ’oui‘ reporter
found Mr. Gomard at his pleasant home, which
with many others adorn Sumner street and
fronts the chamiing park of South Common
llir. Goniard said, ”I had been, as many of my
friends ln Lowell know. a great sufferer from
kiducy and urinary troubles for a long time.
M y physician said it was the resultof diseased
kidneys and enlargement of the prostrate
gland. Iliad suffered terribly, and although
, my doctor’s treatmenthad been the best which
this city afforded, I got no better. I said. final-
1y. ‘Docior,its no use. You have done all that
is in your power toldo. I know that; but I
must get help from some other source or die.’
Fini'illyl was induced to try Dr. Kennedy’s
FAVORITE REMEDY, a medicine which had
been recommended very highly for kidney
diseases. I received help at once. It has
acted like a charm with me. Why so? Dr.
Kennedy’s FAVORITE REMEDY is an honest
preparation, and 1 know it. I didn’t think
anything would help me, but this has given
me better health than any medicine ever. rc-
scribed for me. I have recommended I to
ever so many of my fneudsin the city of Low-
ell, and with the slime result. They think
there is nothing like Dr. Kennedy’s FAVOR-
Il‘B‘ REMEDR.”
What Mr. Gomard says can be depended
upon, as anyone acquainted With the gentle-
man knows.” 4t2~i

Oysters Grown on Trees.
A Novel Industry on the Poquonoc River.
Nonwwn, May 30.—A peculiar case,
that came up from the lower court on a
finding of facts by Judge Culver. has been
on trial this week before the Superior
Court of Errors, in this city. It concerns
a novel industry, unheard of outside this
county—the artificial propagation of oys-
ters on trees.
Poquonoc River is a broad aim of Long
Island Sound, penetrating the Connecti-
cut coust a few miles east of New London,
dividing the great level sea meadOWs for
three or four miles inland. Around the
head of the river, where a trout stream
tumbles over a mill-wheel into the slug
gish waters of the estuary, are the scat-
tered farm houses of Poquonoc hamlet.
The tide rises the whole length of the
river. For years the waters of Poquonoc
River have been noted as producing the
most delicious oysters known in the world.
They out-rank the famous “Blue Points,"
selling readily in the New York restau-
rants at $10 a barrel when the latter might
be bought for $5. , The demand was far
in excess of the supply. On account of the
thick black mud that plastered the bed of
the river, and which is fatal to oyster cul-
ture, ohly a small margin of the bottom, a
rocky strip far in shore, could be utilized
by the oyster growers. Annually the
oysters that had attached themselves to
the rocks and other obstructions over this
district were knocked off and sold at
tempting prices, but there were not enough
of them. It was not until three or four
years ago that a speculative and inventive
Yankee deviseda plan for extending the
oyster cultivation upon the mud bottoms.
He went into his Woods and cut down a
forest of tough wiry white bitches, drag-
ged them to the bank, bore them in his
boat upon the river, and dumped them
overboard, taking care that they should
be left at proper intervals on the bottom.
He had an idea tbgt the oyster spawn
would come sailing along in the season,
cdtch hold of the birch boughs, and grow
into a fabulous fortune for him. The Idea
was a good one, but not perfected. He
allowed the bitch to he a suitable time
and then pulled them up. Every bough
and twig was thick with half-grown bi.
valves, but the weight of the growing
shells had dragged the brush down into
the fatal mud, and the oysters had perish-
ed by thc million.
Enlightened by his failure he made an-
other trial. He planted the bitches up-
right on the bottom, setting them at an
angle with the current. The submerged
trees, as described in the judicial finding,
were from 15 to the 20 feet in length, and
the butts, which were 8 or 4 inches in di—
ameter, were thrust 3 or 4 feet into the
mud. Their tops just prickcd through the
waves at low tide. It is stated in the re-
port of the Oyster Commission of the
State that each female oyster will produce
in the breeding season from 9,000,000 to
49,000,000 eggs, which float with the cur
rent and attach themselves as spat or
spawn to any obstacle they encounter.
In the breeding season that followed the
planting of the birch trees, millions, bill-
ions, of spat came floating down the cur-
rent of Poquonoc River to the submarine
forest. It was just what they wanted, a
ready-made home. They drifted as thick
as snowflakes to the bending boughs and
pliant twigs. Singly they were so small
as to be almost invisible, but their legions
speckled the trees with brownish patches.
Finally every branch and twig was cover-
ed, but apparently there was no diminu-
tion in the army of floating emigrants.
The new-comers multiplied on the speck-
les already attached, until there were doz-
ens in a, bunch. It requires two years for
an oyster spawn or spat to reach maturity.
From a mere speck it will grow in a
mouth or six weeks to the size of a. quar-
ter of adollar. In two years an acre of
brush will produce 1,000 bushels of full
grown oysters. The trees bowed under
their lead of growing shells, but the clas-
tic wood kept the fruit clear of the mud.
At the end of a few months it was seen
that the oyster orchards promised an as-
tonishing harvest. All the oystermen along
the river were anxious to try their hand at
the new style of oyster farming. Under
the law of the State the mud bottom on
each side of the 100-foot channel was
staked off in plats to a dozen or more up-
plicants to be planted with oyster trees.
Soon both sides of, Poquonoc River, from
its head for a long way towards the sea,
was bristling with sunken bitches waving
an ebbing and flowing welcome to the
drifting spat.
Among the marine horticulturists was
Gideon F. Raymond, the plaintiff, who
in the years 1879-80-81 placed upon his
plats, in all, about 6,700 while bitches.
One encouraging crop of oysters had been
gathered from the trees, the forests re-
plantcd, and the cultivators were looking
forward to a second and larger harvest
when an event occurred which provoked
the present suit in court and has nearly
ruined the business of raising oysters on
trees. In May, 1881, scarlet fever broke
out in the village and neighborhood of
Poquonoc and soon assumed the most vir-
ulent character. The disease raged
through the Spring and Summer. Out of
50 cases 20 terminated fatally. The disease
was terrible. The village was barred off
from the rest of the world. Few persons
dared to cross the plague-stricken district.
Out-door work was in part or wholly
abandoned. The streets were seldom dis-
turbed except by the passing of a funeral
train. Often in the same house two and
three presous lay dead atthc same time.
The well had all they could do to wait on
the ill and bury the dead. In the general
terror and fever of excitement some imag-
' inutive person rushed to the conclusion
that the pestilence was caused by pysler
brush decaying on the mud plats. IIc
whispered his suspicion abroad. In a
moment the villagers were ufliimc with
resentment against the owners of the oys-
ter beds. “Pull up the trees at once and
burn them on the river banks,” was the
wild demand. ' Few men were calm
enough to investigate or brave enough to
resist the popular clamor. In the town
of Groton, in 'Which is Poquonoc village,
the Selectmen and peace Justices consti~
into the Board of Health. . Nearly all the
members were either large oyster-bed
owners or sympathizcrs. They were im-
pelled to make an investigation. They
pulled up some trees. The odor from
them was not uuwholsomc. They exam-
ined a filthy pig styc and said in their re-
' ,port: “Here lies the cause of the epidem-
ic.” “Down with the oyster trees, Board
of Healihl” was the last reply of the
stricken Villagers. An appeal was sent
to Dr.'Cbarles W. Chamberlain, Chair-
man of the State Board of Health. He
visited and examined the oyster plats.
He returned to Hartford and wrote back
an order that the local board remove the
trees at once, saying that the rotting brush
had poisoned the air. The local board
proceeded to act, but Were met by an in-
junction served by the fishermcn who
owned the beds. Thereupon the citizens
' held a special town mbeting, electing anIi- '
brush men as officers, who rormed a new
Board of Health. The new board called
a hearing, at which the anti-brush men
Were represented by the Hon. Thomas M.
Waller,the present Governor of the State.
Gideon F. Raymond appeared with the
other oystermen in opposition. The ex-
citement at the hearing was so fierce that
Mr. Raymond was glad to escape from,
the room.
The bear (1 decided that the .brush must be
taken up. .W.S. Fish and Thos.W.Noyes
were appointed a committee to execute
the task. A dozen men were hired to
pull up the trees. They worked industri-
ously from late in the Autumn of 1881
till the Spring of 1882 before their work
was accomplished. The trees were found
to be covered with oysters in all stages of
growth. Every bough and twig was
bent with the load. They were thrown
in a rattling heap on the shore. where they
were frozen and died by the cart loads.
It was found that most of the crop of 1879
were fit for market, and many of the year
1880 were in like condition. The oysters
on trees planted latest, though only a few
weeks old, were as large as silver quarter
dollars. Many were found no larger than
a shad scale. Raymond promptly brought
suit against the Board of Health, claiming
$25,000 damages. His legal statement
was, first, that the board was not a legally
constituted body; second, that they were
responsible as a board for- any mistake
.tbey might have made, and, third, that it
was conferring extraordinary powers on
any board to authorize them to destroy
property merely at their own caprice.
The case came before the Superior Court
in New London last Full. The court-room
was thronged. The most interesting evi-
dence for the oyster brush men was furn-
ished by Capt. James M. Buddington, of
Gretna, a polar Whaler, and explorer and
owner of an oyster forest. He estimated
that 500 bushels of oysters had been de-
stroyed on the Raymond let alone, though
the greater part of the crop was. not a
quarter growu. He said that he had seen
from 14 to 25 bushels of oysters on a sin-
gle tree. He presented in court two or
three twigs of birch that were loaded with
oysters. During the trial the merits of
the Poquonoc River oysters were thor-
oughly discussed. In the opinion of one
expert cultivator their delicious flavor was
due in part to the strong solution of iron ‘
brought down in the streams from the
rocky hillsides of inland towns; All the
witnesses asserted that the Poquonoc oys.
tci‘ was entirely free from the hard‘snb-
stance that injures the quality of other
kinds. One Poquonoc enthusiast said
they were the finest oysters in the world
on the half-shell. The scarlet fever and
diphtheria ceascdto bc epidemic in Poquo—
noc on Sept. 1, 1881, though cases of ma-
larial fever, an unusual disease in the town,
appeared later.
The case was argued before five Su—
preme Court Judges to-day, who took the
papers. Their decision will probably not
be rendered under a month or two. In
the Superior Court Judge Culver found
that the total value of property destroyed
was $5,000. ‘

Live and Let Live.
BY ELIZA COOK.
Shame to those who, secure in their thriving,
Yet fain would keep poorer ones down— _
Tliosewlio like not the crust of ’ striving
To grow to a loaf like their own.
Shame to those who forever are grasping
At more than one mortal need hold :
Whose heart-stringsare coiling and grasping
Round all that gives promise of gold.
Shams to those who, with eager attaining,
Are willing to take but not give,
Whose selfishness—.coldly enchanting—
Forgcts it should “Live and let live.”
There is room in the world for more measure
If man would but learn to be just ;
And regret when his fellow-man’s measure
Runs over with tear-drops and dust.
We were sent here to help one another
And he who neglects the behest
Disgraccs the milk of his mother,
And spreadeth Love’s pull o’er his breast.
And the spirit that covets unduly,
Holds sin that ’tis hard to forgive ;
For Religion ne’er preaches more truly,
Than when'she says “Live and let live.”

Post Mortein Advertising
“Good morning, sir,” said a careworn
yet genteelly constructed mun entering a
country newspaper ofllce. “I would like
to do a little advertising with you."
The editor jumped off from a soap box
with alacrity, wiped a bundle of secular
newspapers from the one leather bottomed
chair, and begged him in a voice tremb.
ling with emotion, and flavored with ex-
pectation, to be seated.
“I have drafted a few points for the
body of the article and I suppose you can
supply the verbal ornamentation."
“Certainly, certainly," said the delight-
ed jouinalist, rubbinghis attenuated claws.
The stranger cleared his husky voice
and began: '
“George Skiddings would respectfully
call the attention of the public to the fact
that, having lately retired from business,
he takes pleasure in informing everybody.
that he had, at one time, the finest assort-
ment of dry goods and fancy groceries to
be found in town, all of which were sold
off at the lowest bed rock prices. He had
a large and extensive line of heavy, stan-
dard A sheetiiigs, domestics, prints, flan-
nels, meriuos, poplins, lawns, ' etc., etc.,
all of which were sold at flfty and seven-
ty-five per cent. lower than any other
house in town. His stock of groceries
was all disposed of below cost and no such
bargains in teas, sugars, Coffees, canned
fruits and syrups were ever offered west
of New York. 110—”
“But I don‘t seem to catch on to the
drift of your advertisement. You say
these goods are sold '1’"
"The last identical pinch of 'cm; sold
away down to close out."
“And that you are now out of busingss?"
“Out of business entirely. Store closed
and shutters lip." V
“' ‘lien—thcu, why—” said the poor ed-
itor. growing pole at the suggestion, “why
do you wish to advertise f”
“To make ’cm sick, sir! Yes, sir, by
god, sir! I want to make the public wilt
clear down into their boots and get sick
at the stomach to think that they missed
this grand opportunity. I had the goods.
I sold them low, like a cussed fool I failed
to advertise and the sheriff sold the goods
at private sale. And now I want to case
my conscience and feel that, although a
trifle late, I did my duty and paid my
share of supporting our paper. You go
ahead and put the advertisement in and
make the public crawl—crawl, sir, like
whipped dogs. I guess when I open out
again the public will come and see me if
I have to send after them with a bench
warrant.” - '
‘ And with stem revenge upon his care.
worn face the stranger paid three months
in advance and then moved sullenly out
of the office. '
He was a young man who had just
come into possession of a legacy of $15,-
000, and he went to a retired Wall street
speculator for advice. "You think of
going into Wall street, ch 1’” “Yes. sir,”
“You yearn to double your money ?" “I
do." “Well, let’s see; this is Wednesday.
There’s plenty of time before Saturday
night. Begin this afternoon.” “Yes, sir. ” .
“And by Saturday you’ll either have to go
to work by the day to earn your living,
or you'll be in a position to. invest about
$25,000 in something that will pay
somebody to scoop you.”— Wall Street

Telegraphic Matter.
Our latest correspondence, May 16. 1883,
brings'to us the narrative of Hermit 11. IN-
CRAM, the General Superintendent of the Dis-
trict Messenger 00.01 New Haven,Conn. Mr.
Ingram says :—“For many months I had been
sorely troubled with a. weak and tired feeling
. across the loins, almost invariably accompa-
nied Wltli a headache. I had noticed also that
at stated periods following these pains my
urine would be high] y colored, and leave a
heavy brick-colored sediment when allowed
to stand in the vessel. I could not work, and
I was discouraged to an alarming degree.
Nothing helped his. 1 was prescribed for by
I ' some oflhe best physicians in New York city
where I was located at that time, but derived
no benefit or relief. ‘Wben almost ready to
give up in despair an acquaintance said to me
'I want you to try Hunt’s Remedy.’ I did so,
‘and hardly twenty-four hours had elapsed be-
fore I obtained rellcf, and in three weeks’
time all the aforesaid ailments had disappear-
ed. and I improved steadily and was infused
with new life. so that I could resume my busi-
ness againnvhicli is one that subjects me 'to
strains of all kinds. Wh ich are likely to effect
the kidneys. namely: Erecting telegraph and
telephone lines. Hunt’s Remedy new occn
n pics the most honored place in my cabinet of
medicines. I would not be without it, and I
cheerfully and heartily recommend it to all
who are troubled with the diseases of the liver
kidney, or urinary organs. It never fails to
cure.” ;
Town Clerk Forty-two Years.
The following is from MI‘.O'I‘IINIEL Gacsit
the well-known and respected Town Clerk of
Norwich, Conn. Mr. Gager is 80 years old,
and has held this position for 42 ytars. and his
word is as good as his band. On May 5, 1883,
he writes as follows: "For years I have suffer-
ed with discase of the kidneys and bladder,
and have no liesitancy in recommending Hunts
Remedy as Ii specific for these complaints. It
has not only been the means of relievin‘g mo
of terrible pain, but has cured at number of my
acquaintances. To-duy I am performing the
duties of the oilice of Town Clerk, which I
have held for f'orty.two years, which I could
not be able to do Were I not is a fair state of
health owing to the use of Hunt’s Remedy.”

. The Bright Reaper.
I saw the years, like bright autumnal leaves,
Fall on tho frosty path of ages flown ;
And there an angel bound them up in sheaves,
As one who gamers in the fields alone.—
As one who garners quietly and sings
A song that all the hush with music thrills,
While breezes? ow wa t slumber with their
wings
And twilight listens on the lonely hills.
Among tho_lcn.vcs the smiling spirit found
Were some as fair as sun and flew could
form ;
But there were some her gentle fingers bound
That withered were and sored with rain and
storm. '
Then I was sad, becauso I knew that I
Had wasted tlicrc-f'ullmany aprecious year 3
The angel paused in pity at my sigh,
And, knowing all my thinking, said, with
cheer:
“Fear notl The future still shall bring thee
loaves
And if thou keepest them but sweet and
fair
Then will Isift tho withered from my sheaves
And place, instead, the bright and lovely
there.”
Iiiiwhat the angel said I was consoled, "
I raised my head, her smile upon me
beamed.
She passed. I stood as one who in the cold
Awakes and misses some sweet thing he
dreamed.

He Had Traveled Before.
A lot of Boston tourists were traveling
in a sleeping car, also a Nevada traveler.
In the morning, when the porter went
round to collect his assessments on boot
blocking, there was a great commotion
among the Boston tourists. Some paid
him a five cent nickel, and those who had
no nickels were compelled to yield up
short bits. All the while the Nevada man
dressed in ordinary clothes, sat reading
his newspaper. When the porter reached
him he looked inquiringly.
“Did you black my boots, sir?"
“Yes, ssh."
“You did a splendid job ; never had my
boots blacked so well before on this line.
Here’s $3."
When the porter pocketed the money
the Boston people looked up astonished.
and presently it was rumored about that
J ohn Mackey was aboard or Enoch Stro-
thcr was out on a campaigning trip. In a
few minutes the Nevada man and the
porter met (by chance) in the smoking
room.
“When does my sleeping ticket .l'lIfI
out '1’” . _
“Your time was up, sah,at Ogden ; but
if you wants to ride to Reuo,.boss, it’s all
right, sub."
The traveler gave the darkey a drink
out of a black bottle, and the porter wink-
ed contiuously for nine seconds as he
drank the traveler‘s health. ‘

The Special Senses have been termed the
“Five Gateways of Knowledge,” from the fact
that they receive and transmit to the brain
impressions regarding surrounding objects
through their nerves. The nose, or organ of
smell, is a double-chambered cavity, lined
with a mucous membrano, over which is
s read numerous nerve filaments, branches
o the olfactory nerves, for the reception of
odoriferous impressions. Catarrh soon de-
stroys the sens oof smell, causes inflammation
of the menibrano, rapidly becomes offensive
and culminates by becoming chronic. Ely’s
Cream Balm eures’ catarrh, no attor how
