A prejudice exists against tub oysters,
which Is erroucous. Most people think
that when an oyster is opened it dies.
This is not the case. Oysters will live
(with proper care,) from four to six days
after being opened; and not only live but
fatten nnd grow. OyBters, opened at tide,
may be dark and flabby; by lho ttrao thoy
reacli the consumer, tt is plump, firm and
white. Further evidence that tho oyster
Is alive, is ihat about one-third of tho re
tail dealer's profits is from what the In
crease in size. Take nine gallons oysters,
put in one gallon water, let them stand
over night, the water will be all gone and
there will bo ten gallon oysters. Also,
when an oyster is alive, it sinks In water,
when dead it lloats and Is not fit to sell.
Bad taste about tub oysters generally comes
from the package not bilug sweet and
clean.

We have received from Mr. J. M. Emer-
of 111 Nassau street, New York a book en
titled "New York to tho Orient." It Is
written by hlmstlf, and Is the story of a
trip to the Holy Land, of visits paid to
many places ot historical fame, and of tho
manners and customs ot races to which
tlmoanncars to bring neither chance nor
Improvement. It is really a reprint In col
lectlvo form of a series ot letters contribut.
ed to The Yonkat UattHe, and makes an
exceedingly pleasant aud Instructive vol.
umo of some 220 pages. The stylo of the
author Is easy and flowing, the language
well chosen and forciblo without any at.
tempt nt word-painting, and details are
given with far more than tho ordinary
Judgment shown In books ot travel. Somo
of the descriptive passages would not dis
grace ihc pen of a Washington Irving, so
grapulo Jand upprcclaltve are they. The
author also possesses a certain quaint
humor which seems to bo peculiarly his
own. Without trying to uo lacetious, ue
nevertheless brings now and then a
quiet smile to the fnco ot the reader
by a sort of good natured irony underlying
allusions apparently made quito gravely
and serloubly. Mr. Emerson was a passen
ger homo on the ill-fated "Oregon," and
the description be gives of a peril which
was so near culminating In a hideous catas
trophe, is thrilling and realistic In the ex.
trcmc. The pages dovoted to this graphic
chapter ot tho book would alone Justify
the expenditure ot the modest sum at which
"Now York to the Orient" can be obtained.
Wo havo read thu book through with much
Interest, and can cheerfully recommend it
to all who are fond ot books ot travel.
The price is ouly ono dollar, neatly bound
lu cloth, and tho book Is for sale at G. A.

THE CONTINENTAL 11A1LROAD.
It appears that Mr. Day, the president
of thu old Continental R. It. Co. has lately
come to full life and financial health again,
About 1809 there was quite an excitement

wns spent. It died out after the failure of
Jay Cooko. Iu 1875 It was revived ngntn
only to gasp for breath and go back Into a
comatose stato, but now it bus nil thu
bloom of youth. Mr Day has ordered the
survey completed with tho Instructions to
proceed to the construction of tho road in
the near future.
As near ns wo can ascertain the lino will
bo located from a counection with tho
h V. R. R. or tho N. J. O. at Tnmnnend,
tunnel the mountain at that point, follow
the Catawlssa creek to a point opposltu

them past the worst barrier of tho Alle.
ghany mountains and Into the bituminous

cided where they will run.
This will bo beyond doubt a valuable

there is, or can lie, such a remedy. But
many people who were most afflicted,
state that they have been positively cured

Wo understand that thcro will bo a case
of homlcldo presented to you. In regard
to that, there Is no occasion lo givo you
special instructions, further than to inform
on In a general way of tho outline of the
law upon that subject. The term homlcldo
means tho killing of a human being that
may not bo murder, may not be man.
slaughter) It may bo n lawful killing, or it
may bo felonious, according to tho facts i
tt Is ho.ntclilo fur the sheriff to hang a man
undor n decree ot court after trial j that is
a homicide, because it lakes tho life ot a
man j but it Is not mutdor nnd It Is not
manslaughter, because it is tho taking ot
life in accordance witli la?.
Murder Is tho felonious killing of any
human being, with mallco aforethought,
either express or Implied It la this Ingred
ient ot malice which constitutes murder,
when human life Is taken. Malice is ex.
press when ono person takes the llfo of
another nut of Bpito or revenge j when Hint
is the motive, tho malice is express t but
that Is not tho only kind of mnllcu of
which the law takes notice. Matlce, in
law, exists when nn net is done out of u
wicked and malicious icartj when a per.
eon, regal dless of the rights or others ;and
regardless ot his duties as a citizen, his
mind bent . n mischief, docs n heartless
nnd cruel act, the law then Implies mallco
so you havo In this definition what is
express mallco and what Is Implied malice:
if till Ingredient of malice is lacklng'nany
case where n human llfo Is taken, tho tnk,
ing is not murder) mallco Is essential to
constitute that olfense. Manslaughter is
tho unlawful killing of a person without
malice ; that Is where thcro is a provoca
tion, passiou engendered, nnu, by reason
of that provocation, the person who Is in-
censed, before there Is room for passion to
cool, whllo yet smarting under the prova
tlon, takes llio : here tho law, making al
lowunce for human passion, reduces tho
grade of tho homlcldo to manslaughter
that which would be murder If prompted
by malice, when the net Is committed on
tho spur of the moment, not prompted by
mallco but brought about by previous pasj
slon.
Weighing the facts of a given case, It is
frequently somewhat more difficult to de
termine whether or not they make out an
offense amounting to manslaughter than to
decide between murder and not murder,
the line of distinction in the latter question
being more sharply drawn. Two persons
may fight by agreement, when onedocsnot
Intend to kill tho other; yet, If he does take
life, his act is mnnslnugli -r. AVhcthcr a
felonious homicide is m inslaughtcr or
murder, and, if murder, In what degree, is
commonly for the traverse nnd not for the
grand Jury, who. If they find tho bill true,
usually return a general indictment.
The law holds tho lives of citizens so
sacred that whenever death is caused by
violence It requires that the matter should
bo thoroughly and carefully looked into.
Often ono inquiry Is, who began tkcntlray?
and, If tt bo settled that tho accused did
not, then Ihi Inquiry is, Did ho go beyond
what was necessary in order to protect him
self ?
Lawful homicide Is cither justifiable or
excusable : Justifiable homicide is the tak
ing of human life In pursuanco of sentence
of law, ns when a shcrilf executes the
denthwnrrnnt upon a convict properly con
demned by a court of competent Jurisdict
ion ; excusable homlcldo Is the taking of
human life in selfdefeuse.
The law undoubtedly is that when one
person is wrongfully assailed by another,
and tho person who Is assaulted avoids
fighting so tar as he can do so with safety
to himself, but finds it necessary or appar
ently necessary for him to inflict nn injury
upou his assailant, he may so protect him
self from great bodily harm or from being
slain by tho hand of another. This qucs.
tlon of fact Is ono that properly can bo
tried only when the person accused makes
his defense. It is true that If the ovldcnco
on the part ot tho commonwealth satis
factorily shows that the accused acted In
selfdefense, tho grand Jury nre not boand
to return a true bill even for manslaughter;
but I feel Justified In saying that whenever
a death has been caused by tho uso ot a
deadly weapon or by violence, whatever
may be tho circumstances, it is right that
there should bo a full investigation where
both sides are represented. Beforo the
grai.d Jury there aro no counsel to ex
amine witnesses, no counsel to crosscx
amtno witnesses, no court to give instruct
ion in regard to questions of law arising

Institute IiiHtructoru,
Rev. Theo, S. Cuylcr of Brooklyn said
July 27 1880 :
I am happy to learn that you nre Intend
ing to gtvc to a wider public next winter
your instructive nnd delightful lecture on
Siberia, nud your racy adventure among
the Arctic snows- It Is one ot the most
capital treats I have ever enjoyed from
tho lecture platform. Tho many who have
rend your volume "Tent Life in Siberia,"
will be eager to listen to Its author, and
the many men who have not read It will
have a new chapter of life unlolded to
them. May you and your bear skin cos
tume be greeted by thousands of delighted
auditors. St.
Manayunk Chronicle, Pa., says of Col.
Conwcll : A perfect ma'ter of tho orator's
art; brilliant, Incisive, overpowering, elo
qucnt words are so linked with vivid ges
ture, that he seems tho born throll of tho
rclgnlug, emotions and wit never so keen,
humor never bo refined, yet broad aud gen
ial, pathos never so genuine and deep,
make everything ho touches patt of a grand
procession wherein axiomatic through and
pertinent nnccdoto not only point to Hea
ven, but lead the way. Almost every sen
tence is an Inspiration, and tn closing his
Jules -Verncish grasp on the trend of
scientific achievement, seems to send an
electric illumination to the very verge of
the mlllcnium.
As an author and orator, Col. Conwcll
won high honors. N. Y. Tribune. 2t
Dr. Buckley's lecture on "Cranks, or
how not to go mad" is a good lecture, but
not a humorous one. The latter part of its
title gives n clue to Its general drift. It is
really an exhaustive discussion ot the sub
ject ot lnsrulty, treating upon all Its phases
and freaks ; how to handle and help its
victims : how to ward it off when there
seems to be an hereditary tendency to It
and how to live so as not co mad. Tbo
IccMirc is an able and very Interesting dis
cussion of tho whole subject, occasionally
witty, but not humorous, and the person
who goes with the expectation of laughing
or who cannot rise above that plane in the
scale of entertainment will bo greatly dis
appointed. Tho Dr. speaks rather pleas
antly, with force and precision, but with
no effect at oratorical display.
