«• Tks Hudson By Daylight.
Bbllvi k, Ned., Aug. 34. 1803.
Editor Frontirii:
It wu a delightful rido from Chicago
tla> Niagara Falls, to Albany, througt
a region of wonderful fertility, filled
with crystal lakes and abounding it
thriving villages and rich manufactur
ing towns. The Mohawk valley is one
of the richest and most fertile valleyi
in tho XJnlted States and is destined to
become the centre of agricultural wealth,
enterprise and intelligence.
We leave the valley to the left as we
approach Albany, and, ns the brass
buttoned porter announces, "change
cars for Troy, lioosac Tunnel, Boston
and Hudson ltiver points," all eyes peer
from the car windows anxious to get
the first glimpse of the famous river.
But it was evening and the many steam
boats and vessels which ply between
Albany and New York city had anchor
ed only to resume work at daylight.
Strict orders were left with. the hotel
porter expressing concisely our reasons
for wishing to be called at five o’clock
a. m. Like the disappearance os some
earthly enchantment, so the powers of
day rolled back the misty canopy of
night and there lay the Hudson flowing
with a tranquility which seemingly
would admit of no life, and yet upon
Hi bosom is carried the bulk of traffic of
our infant republic. Flowing as it does
above Troy, a little brooklet, It suddenly
leaps into new life when nutured by the
waters of the Mohawk. Mills, factories,
villages, towns, cities and finally a great
metropolis rejoices at its grandeur and
power, when, as suddenly as it bursts
from the Adirondack's, so suddenly it
merges into the broad Atlantic. Though
only three hundred miles In length, no
river in the world presents so many
points of interest or carries with it from
its source to its confluence with the
ocean, so much history as does the Hud
son. At Troy, one hundred and fifty
one miles from its mouth it is affected
by the tide and becomes sufficiently
wide and deep enough to carry the
largest steamboats and vessels.
It would be impossible to give a de
tailed aecount of the minute points of
interest, ns one travels down the “river
by boat, so we can only give here the
major points. After leaving Albany
the most Important place is Newburg,
sixty-one miles from New York. Here
the river enters the Highlands, which

of twelve hundred to sixteen hundred
feet. The scenery is greatly admired
by travelers for ita great beauty and
grandeur. Several of the heights ore
• owned with the ruins of fortifications,
built to prevent the passage of British
ships in the war of independence. A
largo monument marks the scene of the
sad fate of Major Andre, and the stu
dent of history at once couples with this
the treason of Arnold.
Emerging from the Highlands ' the
river widens into the Tappan Zee, so
named because of ita wide expanse.
A little below on the east bank, hid
den in the bluffs, is Sing Sing prison
and village. Owing to its situation and
ita extreme lonely lonlinesa, one of our
party repeated these words from Bryon’s
“Prisoner of Chillon:”

ww it once reminded of thet pleasing
writer, Irving, who spent so much of
dils time et Sunnyaide, on the Hudson,
near the present site of Jay Gould’s resi
dence, and who has left us "Rip Van
Winkle,” “The Broken Heart,” and the
beautiful “Legend of Sleepy Hollow.”
It did not take a very vivid imagination
to see the “vast ham hard by the farm
house, that might have served for a
church, every window and crevice of
which seemed bursting forth with the
treasures of the farm,” or “swallows
and martins skimming and twittering
about the eves,” or "rows of pigeons,
some with one eye turned -up as if
watching the weather, some with their
heads under their wings or buried in
their bosoms.” 80 enwrapped and en
chanted did we become that we some
times found ourselves unconsiously
waving our handkerchiefs or clapping
our hands as we passed some memorable
spot. Below this on the west bank of
the New Jersey shore, rises an almost
perpendicular wall of trap rock from
the river's brink to a height of three to
five hundred feet, called the Palisades,
extending fifteen miles to the npper
portion of the City of New York. The
river here is nearly two miles wide and
flows into New York bay.
The entire trip is one panorama of
unrivaled scenery and save for the art
and ingenuity of man which has adorned
the hill sides, mountain tops and valleys,
we were looking at the same hills, rid
ing on the same water and breathing
the same atmosphere which Henry Hud
son did when he started up the river
which bears his name and which be
thought connected the two great oceans.

| THE PORCUPINE’S DIET.
The Only Urit| Thing That Eat* tha
Foliage of tha Uetnloek.
"You don’t have to skirmish around
much to get feed to fatten one of these
hemlock porcupines on,” says an old
woodman. "Just sprinkle some salt
over a stick of cord-wood, or a saw
log, for that matter, and he'll eat the
whole business, and enjoy it like you
would mince pie.”
The usual diet of these animals,
though, is hemlock browse. They
make themselves a home in a hollow
log, or under the roots of some old
tree, but always in ranch of a big
hemlock. Thu hemlock is their pas
ture, and they make beaten paths go
ing to and fro between the tree and
their home. The porcupine climbs
the tree as readily as a squirrel would,
provided you don’t slip up and cut
his tall off while he is going up.
Somehow or other he can’t climb a
tree without a tail, nor will he come
down without it.
If you catch one of these porcupines
climbing a tree and chop off his tail
close he will stop right where he is,
and will stay there until ho starves to
death, unless he is taken away. Once
up a tree the porcupine goes out on
the big limbs, and, pulling the small
branches in with one paw, browses on
the pungent loaves. Ingoing through
the woods you will find little piles of
these fine leaves on the ground under
hemlock trees. That means that a
porcupine is feeding in the tree, the
leaves on the ground being dropped
from his feast. Sometimes a porcu
pine will remain in a hemlock tree a
week at a time, hugging close to the
trunk at night and feeding during the
day. This curious little beast is the
only known living thing that eats the
foliage of the hemlock.
A CLOSE CALL FOR THE BOY.
Falls Into the Grip of a Big Bear, Kept
as a Fat.
Albert Morgan, a lad of 13, lies in
Middlesex hospital, London, suffering
from injuries received under singular
circumstances. lie has been severely
crushed by the Second life guards’ pet
bear, kept at the Albany street bar
racks. The lad was in the habit of
running messages for the soldiers, and,
boy-like, took every opportunity of
making friends with the animal. Bruin
is confined with a chain about six
yards long to a polo in a grass plot'
fenced by a railing, but there was, it
appears, sufficient space between the
rails for the lad to get through.
Morgan approached the bear, which
was lying down, and familiarly pat
tea it on tne Dade, as lie bad seen the
soldiers doing, saying, “Get up, Polly.”
The bear got up in anything but a
friendly mood, sprang on the boy, and
with a great blow of his paw knocked
him down and commenced gnawing
him. The little fellow struggled
bravely, clutching the animal by the
throat and nose; but he would
certainly have been killed had it not
been for the timely arrival of Corporal
Farrier Taylor, of the Koyal horse
guards, who happened to be in the
neighborhood. With much difficulty
he beat off the animal, now infuriated
by the taste of blood, and rescued the
boy.
Her Sheltering Oak.
Among the passengers on an Indiana
train the other day were a newly
married couple who made themselves
known to such an ^xtent that the
occupants of the car began passing
sarcastic remarks about them. The
bride and groom stood the remarks
for some time, but finally the latter,
who was a man of tremendous size,
broke out in the following language
at his tormentors: “Yes, we're just
married. We are going 160 miles
further on this train, and going to
‘spoon’ all the way. If you don’t like
it, you can get out and walk. She’s
my violet and I’m her sheltering oak.”
During the remainder of their journey
they were left in peace.
Arbitrary Power at Oxford.
From time immemorial the proctors
Of the English universities of Oxford
and Cambridge have had the extraor
dinary power of arresting and sending
to jail any woman, whatever her
character, who might bo seen walking
with a student. Recently there have
been several flagrant examples of
abuse of this police privilege of uni
versity officers, and measures are
about to be taken to put a limit to the
proctor’s anomalous jurisdiction.
An Immortal Class of People.
_ A little girl, aged 4 years, grown
tired of play, was unusually thought
ful. “Mamma,” she said, very
solemnly, “we will all die some time,
won't we?” “Yes, my dear,” answered
the mother. * 'Everybody will die but
the hack-drivers,” mused the little
one. “Why, what makes you say
that?” questioned the motner, be
tween amusement and wonder. “The
hack-drivers must die, too.” “There
will have to be somebody to bnry the
folks, won’t there?”
The Wrong Room.
“I think, Willie.” said his father, j
who had been looking through the new I
! house, “I shall give you one of the
rooms at the other end of the buila
ing.” “What’s the matter with this
one?” inquired Willie, anxiously.
“The matter, my son,” replied the ex
perienced parent,' his left eyelid com
ing down slowly over his eye, “is that
the window opens out on the kitchen
roof, the coal shed is close to the
kitchen, and this is the circus season.”
Rembrandt, the Realist.
Rembrandt was the founder of the
Dutch schooL He opposed the ideal
in painting and deliberately began
the representation of nature. The
models he selected were generally
ugly, purposely chosen, it is said, to
show what difficulties he could over
come, but his effects of light and
shade have never been surpassed.

CHARMED BY A CORNET.
How > Badctr’i Loro for Mule Got n
Into Trouble.
A real, lire, savage, untamed badger
Is staying at the melodiouy home of L
C. Coggin in San Francisco. Coggin
is the well-known. cornetist of the
Golden Gate Band. That animal had
been prowling aronml the house for
weeks, dividing its attention between
tho chickens of the neighbors (Will a
badger climb a roost after a chicken?
The neighbors say so, anyway) and
tho carrots of tho French Hospital
garden. But it always came back to
Coggin’s at night to hear him play.
Coggin’s fine ear trained to discrim
inate between all shades of sound, de
tected the presence of his unbidden
auditor. Ho dropped his cornet and
set a trap. Tho trap did its work.
Music-loving badger was nipped by
the claws, and then Mr. Coggin, after
an extensive wrestle with an impro
vised riata and an iron ash barrel, suc
ceeded in barreling his orey. After
ward it was an easy matter to confine
his catch in a cage of stout trellis
wire and place it in the kitchen.
That kitchen is now the center of at
traction in tho neighborhood. Feople
call all day by scores to stay and
speculate on the strange animal.
It is a big badger and a pretty one.
It is a foot broad and about thirty
inches long. Its fur is soft gray,
finely marked on the under side with
white. A white streak runs from the
top of its head up toward its queer
pointed nose. Its eye's are bright as
diamonds.
There in captivity in the kitchen it
gamely defies the whole circle of
critics. It hisses and growls and
makes little darts and rushes in the
direction of any supposed assailant
It refuses to cat or make friends, and
is just as mad as a “pug” in chancery.
Mr. Goggin is going to try his cor
net upon him at close range, and if
that fails he knows he cannot be
tamed.” __
MR. D* AUBIGNE.
How He Was Kvolnted Oat of Plain
- Old Dobbin.
“I am looking,” said the dusty,
travel-stained man with the valise,
"for an old friend of mine who used
to live on this street”
“What’s his name?” inquired the
policeman leaning against the lamp
post
“Dobbin.”
“No man of that name living along
here.”
“No, I reckon not,” said the dusty
traveler* looking in a perplexed way
at a memorandum in his hand and
t.hpD nt flin rnw o# cfotnln iltwnlHnrvc
in front of him; “but he used to live
in a one-story cottage right where that
big stone front stands.”
“Was he a short, heavy man with a
bald head and one leg a little shorter
than the other?”
“Yes, that’s the man. Where is he
now?"
“Always walked with his hands be
hind him and wore chin whiskers?”
“That describes him exactly.”
“Why, he got a street-paving con
tract three or four years ago, and he’s
worth 8100,000.”
“Good for Dobbinl What became
of him? Is he in Europe? ’
“No,” answered the policeman,
pointing at the big stone front “He
lives right there and his name’s
D’Aubigne.”
A BRITON'S OPINIONS.
He Has Hie Mental Bile When He
Talks About the Wool? West.
“It is only in the far West, pro
bably,” writes an English correspond
ent at Chicago, “that the old race of
spitters kept up the best practice. In
the cities, at any rate, you seldom see
men who tilt back in their chairs, put
their knees on the dinner table and
take the fire-irons at forty paces.
Civilization is progressing? when you
must not talk about spittoons, but de
mand that utensil under the name of
‘cuspidor.’ Still, the most prominent
notice in the woman's building is ‘Do
not spit on the floor.’
A man stood beside me as I read this.
He wore a slouch hat, to which Buffa
lo Bill’s would bo just a fashionable
bonnet in size; trickles of rich to
bacco juice wattled his mouth like a
barbel’s; his boots were models for a
coffin-maker. Noticing, l dare say, a
twinkle in the corner of my eye, he
said slowly, and with that grim,
smileless humor befitting a slabsided
hero from Indiana way: ‘Say, now,
do you mean that we mout taken, shot
at them pictures?' There is certainly
a suspicion of local option suggested in
that sentence. Better to have gone
on the principle of some other notices
which, without waste of printer's ink
(and composition), meet your eye
everywhere: ‘No admittance! Go out.’”
Woman I* Progressive.
Even the washerwomen of Japan are
inspired by the example of their
American and European sisters. Sev
eral of these humble laborers in Tokio
have been studying the English lan
guage, and for the benefit of English
tourists they issue the following neat
circular: “Ladies and gentlemen! We,
the washer of every kind of clothes,
blankets, and so on, newly established
the company and engaged the busi
ness. Contrary to our opposite com
pany, we will most cleanly and care
fully wash our customers with possi
ble cheap prices. With your wages we
will work the business.”
The Tomb of DanieL
Less than three miles to the north- j
east of Samarcand and outside of the
extreme limits of the ancient city is
a tomb which Is called IChodja-Daniar.
This tomb, according to the Musslman
legends, is the burial place of the
prophet Daniel. The spot where this
tomb stands is called Afrousiab, and
there are seen ruins which are very
probably those of the ancient city of
Maracanda, destroyed by Alexandei

An interesting portion of the dead
letter office is the room in which an
accumulation is made of those articles
on which an insufficient amount of post
age is paid, or which have been incom
pletely or wrongly addressed, writes
Alice Graham McCollin in an interest
ing sketch of the presiding genius of the
dead letter office, in the September
Ladies’ Home Journal. It is a most
heterogeneous collection, ranging in
kind from skulls to confectionery, and
in value from 1 cent to $1,000. Sales of
these articles are held annually, after
they have been held for claim for two
years, and after every effort has been
exhausted to find the owners the parcels
become matter of public investment.
Most of the packages contain article of
too small yalue to be sold separately,
so parcels containing the contents of
several packages are made up and sold
at an average price of 60 cents each. The
attempt is made to have the articles in
each package worth that amount. The
original wrappers are removed from the
parcels and new ones on which is writ
ten a description of the contents, sub
stituted. This description is also
entered in the auctioneer’s sale book,
and from this description, not from a
personal examination, the purchase is
made. The sale is held in December,
before the holiday seasoh, nnd con
tinued for about a week. The proceeds
like the money found in unclaimed
letters, are delivered to the third assist
ants postmaster-general for deposit in
the United States treasury.
