German Carp.
On Monday Conrad Meyer of this city re
ceived by express 13 German carp from Leo
Gerhard of Eugene City. The carp were put
into a pasteboard box with a tight fitting cov
er, and olace in layers with grass dampened
with water between each layer. Mr Gerhard
wrote Mr Meyer on a postal card that he had
salted them, thinking they would keep fresh
till their arrival here. On their arrival here
Mr Meyer opened the box, aud noticed that
several of the carp were gasping for breath. He
put them in water and succeeded in resuscitat
ting nine of them. They are now sporting in
Johnny Irviiig's fountain at his residence in
this city. The carp must bave been at least
four hours in the box, and only the moisture
from damp grass to sustain life. This is a
fish story, but a true one, and the circumstance
may greatly surprise Mr Gerhard if it should
come under his notice." The remainder of the
carp graced Meyer's breakfast table on Tues
day morning aud he pronounces them extreme
ly good muckamuck. Albany Bulletin.

be filled with younger members, and thus it
has been from time to time, but it has acted
all the time as a chain fastening our friendship
with classmates and schoolmates closer to
gether. "1'is true that discussions will arise that will
render us opNiienU .for th time lieing, but
one strong principle has ever prevailed in the
Eutaxiun Society nd that is to forgive our
enemies. The society bear an unblemished
record so far in the harmony and tranquility
of all its proceedings. May we not liken it to
a cluster of wild rose floating down the
stream, uo dissension or bitter feeling having
yet arisen to separate it into parts. A such
organizations as this grow older, they become
more perfected in rules and refills tious of their
order", the members become older and under
stand better the government of the soceity. It
is now what we might call its youtn, mit
nevertheless is rapidly advancing, esptcially
the last year, for the membership is to a
greater decree younger persons than hereto
fore. Although young, each and all seem to
be doing all within their mean toward the
advancemeut of the society.
As we need to go to school to educate and
cultivate our winds, so we need a literary
school (or society) to educate our eratoricvl
powers. But this is not all, we meet her for
the sake i f dUcussing the literary questions
agitating the public mind, both past and
t resrnt In so doing we acquire a thorough
knowledge of what is going on around us at
prweut, and also of the ancient times and
character
