UNFERMENTED MALT BITTERS TRADEMARK SLEEPLESS AND MELANCHOLY. To countless numbers night brings neither peace nor rest. Abandoned to the tortures of wakefulness and de spondency, the victim of insomnia prays for sleep,for daylight, for any torment but that which he endures. Morning finds him with blood-shot eyes, feverish and weak. It is plain to all that this frightful strain on the mental and physical forces cannot continue.

City Court Notes. Thursday evening "Walter Scott robbed Patriok Crowley while he lay helplessly drunk. He took a pair of shoes off the man's feet and was afterwards arrested. For this offense he was fined $7 and costs by Judge Stoddard in the City Court yesterday, and sent to jail for thirty days. The court also fined Crowley for drunkenness $5 and costs. Thomas Amesbury and Edward 3. Hol land, hard young customers, were in the City Court yesterday charged with assaulting each other. Their faces were battered and bruised, and they presented a sorry plight. Holland was sent to jail for sixty days and Amesbury for ninety. Judge Stoddard suspended judgment in the case against Bartholomew Healey, who was charged with wetting F. C. Cannon on Tues day last with a street washer. The evidence went to show that the wetting was purely ac cidental. CORRESPOADEJiCE. From Turner's Falls to Greenfield The Proposed .Extension of the Canal llail road "The Times. Gbeeotield, Mass., July 14. To the Editor of the Joubnax. and Cotteieb The weather has been unusually hot every where, according to the newspapers, and no one this time questions their statements. Tip here among the hills there is generally a good breeze stirring, and except in some exposed place it is comfortable. Biding over on the top of a stage early this morning from Tur ner's Falls it was almost too cold for comfort. but the sun was shining brightly and the air was perfectly clear. The ride was a most delightful one. People up in this section are much pleased with the proposed extension of the Canal railroad, of which you make fre quent mention. When that project is fin ished (which it is hoped will be early in the fall) freight can be snipped direct from JNew Haven to Turner's Falls without change. At present it has to undergo three handlings, and a mercnant told me tms morning it cost him more to get his freight from Greenfield than it did from Boston. I have been talking of late with many men about New Haven as a manufacturing center. I saw an item in the Palladium a few days ago about there being a return of the 'hard times," and it was based upon the fact that the Town Agent had had more calls upon him for assistance than were expected. So I thought I would inquire a little outside about it. For instance, in our shops we want many more girls than we can get, on account of our orders being all the while behind, and bo I advertised for some a while ago, but not a single application did I get. Yesterday I found a well-known shoe manufacturer of New Haven in Worcester, Mass., looking for men to come to our city. He had spent nearly two days there and had only secured three. He said he could employ twice as many men if he could only get them, but all those who were willing to work were now employed, and only those were idle who did not want to work. I also learned that many of our largest factories were running full time, some not taking the usual vacation of July to take inventory and make the usual summer repairsr So I cannot see that there is any great indication of coming adversity. The stores that I have visited this week have been unanimous in saying that their summer trade this season was unusually good, and certainly they never gave me larger orders and I cannot see why any New Haven paper snould get tne idea spo&en of. 1 cannot see, with the constant influx of people to this country, and the balance of trade greatly in our favor again (as it has been for a few weeks of late), how there is any danger of "hard timers." M. C o. State Sews. A New York man is building a castellated house of white marble, finished in oak, at Sharon, to cost $30,000. A chapel is con nected with tne house. A competent engineer sent by the Light house Hoard from Washington will reeom mend Harbor Ledge as the place for the lighthouse off Stamford. Dr. W. li. Trowbridge, of Stamford, is appointed by General Order No. 0 as Post Surgeon for Stamford, to determine who shall be exempt from doing military duty. Mr. George W. Lyon, a resident of Cos Cob, attempted suicide by taking laudanum on Inursday morning. Physicians were called, and he may yet have an opportunity to repeat tne dose. One night last week, burglars effected -an entrance to the residence of C. 8. Hine, of Stamford, and stole some silverware and ci gars. Two or three other residences were also visited and some silver stolen. Summer Woodcock Shooting. From the Forest and Stream. Though the progress which is made by game protection in ibis country is slow, and though its friends have to work against many discouragements, some steps in ad vance are being made each year. One of the most encouraging signs of the times is the gradual spread of the sentiment in favor of abolishing the summer shooting or woodcocK. ihe necessity for some pro tection of this species has naturally made itself felt first in the older and more thickly- settled States, where game is least plentiful and gunners most numerous and hence we nave seen vuuiieuticui;, jgiassacnuseics, MNew xorK and .New Jersey amend their laws so that the woodcock should be protected, least during the nesting season. There is to us something so repulsive in the idea of de stroymg a poor mother bird who has under her charge a nest of eggs or a brood of tot tenng, downy young ones, that we cannot understand how any right feeling person can take the least pleasure in it. It has been pretty clearly demonstrated that woodcock rear least two broods in tne summer, if they are unmolested, and it would seem that the short-sightedness of interrupting the labor of reproduction, when it is but half completed, must be apparent to any one who would take the trouble to consider the matter. The woodcock lays ordinarily four eggs, and ner nrst Drood is hatched so early that we have seen, in advanced springs, young ones able to fly well by the 25th of April. As soon as the birds of the first hatching are able to shift for themselves the old ones pre- pare their second nest, and the young of this brood are usually out of the shell by July 1. We have more than once seen, in years gone by, the poor little things during the summer shooting, and been moved to pity by their grotesque helplessness. That summer shooting is thoroughly wrong in principle is acknowledged by all the best class of sportsmen but more than such acKnowieagmeni, ana more tnan laws pro iiibiting the so-called sport, are required to protect the birds, Good laws are enough to protect wooacocK rrom tne respectable por tion of the community during the close sea son but what the birds require is protection rrom a portion oi tne community not so re spectable.' No self-respecting sportsman in tentionally violates the game laws, but there are plenty of men calling themselves sports men who do not hesitate to kill birds out of season. We have the names of men in New York, Connecticut and New Jersey, who call themselves, and perhaps think they are. gentlemen, who have killed woodcock this summer. It is a part of the business of the true sportsman to use every effort to educate this lawDreafcing class up to his own level It will be slow and difficult work, but we be heve it can be done. P. T. Barnum's Mermaid. He Tells Jerome or the Indianapolis -Jour nal How He Sot It. It is nearly 40 years ago that Moses Kim. ball came from Boston and brought with him in a oomn-iike box what he declared was genuine mermaid all but the flowing tresses ana tne comb. He had rot it in .London. wnere it was being exhibited by a sea-cap tain, who had paid $2,000 for it in Calcutta, and who, when Kimball found him, had been arrested and thrown into fail for using the ship's money to buy it with.. The lower part was tne tail of a shark or some large fish, but the upper part was not of woman's, form bv any manner or means, it was a hideous head and shoulders apparently of some sort of ape. I called my French naturalist. He shook hxs head and laughed. "It is not a mermaid," said he "a mermaid cannot be at all." "Then what is it?" I asked. He ex amined it carefully with a 1 microscope. He eould find no place where the two parts were united. The head looked like a baboon's. but some of the teeth were like a pig's, and some like a dog's, and some he declared to be human. But there was no evidence of den tistry whatever. There was no viirihln am in the body. Moreover, the fish-part had fins on the under side, and scales grew tip among the hair on the chest and hair grew down among he scales. There was no evi dence of artifice. My naturalist was puzzled. "Then it is a good mermaid." saidIM bought it and put it in the safe of Moses Y. Beach Of the Bun. Pretty soon a letter was written from Mobile to the New York Herald giving a good account of the crops, politics, etc., and ending with the incidental announcement that a man had landed there from the Sand wich Islands, bringing a genuine mermaid. It had not been seen and would not be ex hibited, for itawas on its way to the London zoological gardens, for which it was caught in its native waters. This was published and copied all over the country, and it made a sensation. In another week a letter from Charleston announced that the wonder had arrived there, on its way to New York, whence it would sail to London. A more detailed account of the wonderful creature was given. This served to swell the curiosity. From Baltimore came still other letters and then I sent my man to Philadelphia, carrying the mermaid in a close box, nicely made and dec orated. He put up at the best hotel, and cultivated the landlord only. To him, just as he was rmvinf? his bill and leaving, he con fided the immense secret that he was the cel ebrated Englishman -who had caught the mer maid and was carrying it home. 'My God!" said the excited landlord, raising nis nanasm astonishment, "is it possible that wonderful creature is in this house "Yes," said my agent, "but you mustn't say a word about it I am sorry that anything got in the papers." "Now, see here, said the landlord, 'you are a good fellow, and you must let me see it. After much persuasion the mermaid-hunter yielded, and the landlord was in an ecstasy of delight, 'i'hen he said "See here, you must let me show it to one or two reporters. The zoological garden folks won t know any thing about it, and it will help my house." After more importunity the weak Britisher yielded, and a limited exhibition was permit ted. The Philadelphia papers blazed with it next morning. They had columns about it. The next day it was brought to JNew iorK, and the same performance was gone through with at the Astor House. The papers were full of it, and the city was all agog. ITiou sands flocked to nee it, but no exhibition was allowed except to reporters. I was not known in connection with it, but I got three wood cuts made, one from life or, rather, from death another of the traditional mermaid combing her hair by the waves, and another of the exciting capture of this half -human monster in the South Sea. I took one to each of the principal Sunday papers the Herald, Atlas and Mercury and told the editor I had procured the cut from the proprietor ex pressly for his paper. Each one used his cut next morning, under flaming heads, and with a splendid puff, supposing he had the only picture. They were the maddest men you ever saw. Kopes or the Atlas expressed his annoyance when I met him, and was mollified only when I showed him how Bennett had been similarly fooled himself. This mer maid added to my notoriety very much, and when such a splendid curiosity was added to the museum without extra charge, money poured into my coffers. I never was partic ularly proud of the way in Which the mer maid campaign was conducted but I don't know to this day who made it, if it ever was made, and it certainly was a marvelous curi osity, whether natural or artificial. Up "Vesuvius by Railroad. A Night Ascent to the Crater A Very Heavy Grade Character of the Crater The Fiery Mass Within The Railroad. From the London Daily News. It is just 10 o'clock when we enter our car riage, the Vesuvius. We are five in each compartment, which can contain six. Horn signals are exchanged with the upper station and the signal-stations, of which there are two or three along the line a whistle is sounded, and we begin the ascent. The angle of inclination is at first 40 degrees, in creases to G3 degrees, and has decreased again to 48 degrees when we enter the upper sta tion, just eight minutes after starting. The outline of the mountain edge runs parallel with our course. Swiftly and smoothly we go up, and as we lean out of the window we forget the mountain, and feel asjf we were in a balloon far above the glimmering world below us. Nothing is yet to be seen of the crater or eruption. The mighty shoulder up which we are gliding hides it from us but we see its shadow, and that of the smoke projected on the side of the mountain to our left, for the moon is rising above the edge on our right. Flaring torches receive us at the upper station, 3,540 feet above the level of the sea. It is still unfinished, and looks like a mass of scaffolding. This was the most difficult part of the undertaking, for here the very little firm foundation to be found anywhere failed entirely nothing but loose lapilii and ashes, we leave the station and going up some little wooden steps and through a gate in an immense wall of lava. which is one of three built to protect the line from possible streams of the glowing matter, we enter the narrow path which has been made in zigzags up to the edge of the crater, about a quarter of an hour's work. It is heavy work, because of the deep, loose ashes which form its pavement but this is nothing compared with the fatigue formerly under gone in ascending the mountain. Still, the ladies os the party are very glad to be renev ed of part of their own weight, and to be pushed and pulled up even that brief space. taking advantage of the dozen guides who are waiting to be employed. The reports about the despair and ill-will of the Vesuvian guides are, 1 think, much exaggerated. As the rail way gaina tne commence or the putmo more and more people will ascend it, and the guides will earn enough, for it is unwise in the weak to refuse the aid of their strong arms, and foolhardy in the strong to venture over .the Btill hot and crumbling lava in the newly. nlled-up crater without the guidance of one accustomed to the place and aware of the changes which constantly take place. lill now the edge of the crater has inter vened between us and the new eruptive cone. but as we leave the little pathway and begin to cross me jagged lava, a glow of red light bursts upon us, and rivets us to the spot. The new cone, some 150 feet high, and per. haps five times that number in diameter at its base, is m a state of violent eruption. Preceded by a sound which I scarcely know how to describe something like a sudden blast of wind m the naked branches of a win ter forest, or the fall of crested waves on shingly coast millions of glowing particles, from the size of a cannon ball down to a tiny spark,shoot high into the air and fall slowly and gracefully upon the sides of the cone, sliding down it with a crackling sound, and sprinkling it all over with a "network of fire. Ihe larger masses fell back into the crater, or, if projected far enough, with a dull thud on to the gigantic cinder-heap. A few sec onds' interval, during which the column of whirling smoke looks very beautiful, its low er part glowing in the red light from the cra ter below, its upper part bluish white in the moonbeams and another fierce s s sh, s s sh, announces another shower. The smaller sparks seem to serpentine in fiery streaks as tney rise and tail, and m ascend ing, to be flattened at the top. Whetherthis is really the fact, as would be possible if still uquia lava was nuned up against the air, or whether it was an optical illusion, I could not make out with the closest attention, and it was impossible to approach the cone and pick up one of the smaller stones as it cooled to see nit was of oblong form and really nattened at one end. Ail at once there is stronger eruption, and the glowing masses are hurled to a greater distance, one falling not far from us. Our guide fetches it on the end of a stick. It is rapidly cooling and growing black, and like a piece of ragged sponge, so perforated is it with holes. What use to describe how we staggered aoout on tne torn and crumbling surface of the lava which now fills the once deep crater or 1P72, until we got to the newest stream, wmcn issued irom tne loot of the new cone only three days ago, and was red-hot only a few inches beneath the crust on which we stood The acid and sulphurous fumes issu ing from cracks all about, and the increasing neat oi tne lava oeneatn our leet drove us back again. It was not pleasant to think that a nery abyss might open under our very feet. We retreated to the lava blocks at the edge of the old crater, which made a pleasant seat and. felt comparatively cool, though if you stretched your foot into one of the many cracks it was found too hot to let it remain there. We sat for a long time admiring nature's fireworks, of which one could nev er tire. A black and lofty crag rose to our right hand, and above it shone the silver shield of "the moon in exquisite contrats to the lurid glare from the volcano. xieiuming to me upper station, we had a taste of old times in such descents for the guides took a short cut, instead of following the little path, and ran with us straight down ill uie auues, wmcn mooe or proceeding. though fatal to one s boots, is productive of a sense of being provided with a seven-leagu ed pair andalso of; much laughter. As to the new triumph of science and machinery ever being able to extinguish the poetry of the mountain, that is impossible. The whole railway, stations, and adjuncts seem a pigmy work onthe mighty bosom of Vesuvius and formerly, I am sure, no one had time or strength during the painful toil of the ascent to admire the steep outline of the mountain, the effect of the moon rising behind its edge, or the beauty of the landscape below. Now, as we gently glide down in our tinv carriage. add see beneath us, as hi a well, the lights of the principal station, we have time to observe everything. The most curious effect is nm. dnced by seeing the ascending carriage slip past ns, as it were, up to heaven. in spite of all the laws of gravity. This new plaything is, indeed, very delightful, and no one can spend a moonlight night better than in such an nnfatiguing ascent of Vesuvius, ready, on arriving at the top, to enjoy the sublime spectacle. How long the tiny rail way will last is another thing. In itself it is as strong and safe a one as can be found but if ever the volcano again exerts its whole j strength, a new crater might open, and a Stream of lava issue pn the very spot whe people now ascend and descend as easily as in the lift of a modern hotel. The expense of the whole work was, we were told, 170, 000,000 francs. It was begun on the 1st of August last year, and was often interrupted by the excessive cold and high winds of last winter. The foundation of a little hotel is already laid, so that by next winter one can spend a night comfortably on the mountain, and stay to see the sun rise. The air is per fectly delicious one longs to escape the heat of Naples, and pass the dog days at this ele vation. In a short time the railway will be lighted by electricity. We saw a machine in readiness. Since the 6th oi this month there has been on an average 35 passengers daily, but about fifty are wanted to make a fair profit. Just now it is the empty season, so the company has not done badly. With fur ther success it may become possible to re duce the fares, and thus secure all classes of visitors. At present it is by far the best plan to take tickets from Naples, for, if you go in your own carriage or on horseback to the beginning of the new road, you have still to pay 4 francs toll, and 15 for the ascent and descent on the railway. Spearing Sturgeon. Its Pleasures and Dangers. From the San Francisco Bulletin.) With the exception of the great Canadian rivers, San Francisco harbor can boast of a larger variety of big fish than any other sheet of water on the continent.- The sloughs in the vicinity of Newark and Alviso on one side of the bay, and San Mateo and Redwood City on the other, abound in sturgeon, but it is only this year that the fertile brain of the sportsman has devised a new and interesting means of capturing them, which has raised them to the level of game fish. It is the most exciting pastime that the amateur can indulge in slaying the sturgeon as he should be slain, with keen spear and a tub of clear line be hind it, and a strong arm to send the barb well home. It has just enough of danger in it to make the harpooher's pulses quicken when he poises himself for the throw, and his crew rest anxiously on their oars to await the result of his aim. The English sturgeon is mentioned in Brit ish books as a royal fish, and, though he differs from his California brother, taking him with the spear may rightfully be entitled a royal sport. Those who would try their skill with the sturgeon must provide first a good spear. One of the improved harpoon model is best, where the spear works on a joint, the foremost part swinging athwart the wound as soon as tne nsn is struct, and rare ly, if ever, dragged out. The Julian spear, where the top becomes altogether detached from the shaft, if strong enough, has been found to answer nearly as well as the har poon. But if neither of these can be obtain ed the sportsman must content himself with having a spear made, one with broad solid barbs, and on no account venture on a hunt with the pronged spear or grains, which are only good for small fish. Into this iron a tough but not heavy ash shaft must be fitted, planned so as to balance well. Now, having his spear, if he has never cast one, a little practice to get the hang of the weapon will be useful. When he becomes accustomed to the balance and finds that he can make a pretty accurate cast at fifteen or twenty feet he may look out for his line. A quarter inch strong cotton, about one hundred and fifty feet in length, will be the thing, and this must be stretched and restretched till not a kink remains and it is as smooth and flexible as a silk pocket handkerehief An ordinary lance or two to give his fish the coup de grace may be added to the outfit. A tub in which to coil his line is indispensable, and this coil must be as clear and as carefully laid down as a sailor's "Sunday Flemish" on the quar terdeck. A good, heavy Whitehall boat, with two oarsmen, the tub with the line placed nearly amidships, the line led through a well greas ed becket in the nose of the boat, the spear man standing with his weapon in the bow, a cleat to make the line fast to where the fish gives any slack, and the sturgeon fisher is ready for his prey. From now until August or the middle or September is the season for sturgeon. They can be found at about half flood on the weather shore of the sloughs and estuaries of the bay m shallow water. At the mouth of Alviso slough they lie in great abundance, the back fin out of water, and the difficulty in this locality is for the spearman to cast his iron without getting into one. When on the ground the spearman must di rect his rowers to pull along gently no splashing or talking. When within ten or twelve feet he launches his weapon, and the sturgeon, with one preUminary swallow, darts away, while the line, fake after fake, spins out of the tub. When the bow oar takes a turn with the line the party can give any steamboat on the bay big odds and dis tance it. Sometimes the fish, if badly hurt, eases up after a mile or so, and then if the light is all out of mm the lance will put an end to his troubles. A light axe to cut the line if the sturgeon shows an inclination to take the party out of Golden Gate is a neces sary part of the spearman's tackle, but a mile or less will nearly always give him enough of it. Sturgeon from one hundred to three hundred pounds, and the stingaree, flat-fish, which also runs very large, may be killed in this manner. Last week a party tried their luck down the bay, and in a short time speared and secured three sturgeon, the largest weigh- inp upward of three hundred pounds, and two stingarees, one of the latter measuring over three feet across the flippers. One monster sturgeon, about sixteen feet in length, was missed by the spearsman. Another party tried the Alviso slough and had mag nificent sport, killing eight fish, one of which ran with them over two miles.
