But yet, amid my deepest woe, tit a relief to know lie whips ber well ! Daaaralie lAft fFlif. A correspondent of the New York Commercial give s graphic account of the habits of a pair of sticklebacks in his aquarium, and of the general ap- pearance of bis marine museum. He says : About a month ago, tbe male stickleback began to assume very brilliant colors, a Vermillion red un- derneath, and a deep sea green on the back, and then to form nests in the sea lettuce, and the fe- males spawned. For a day or two the nests were vigilantly watched ty the males, but subsequently were abandoned. Suspecting that the hermit crabs had been filibustering upon them, I removed those gentlemen from the tank, with everything else like- ly to disturb the process I was anxious to observe, leaving in it, in fact, only the actiniae, and a few hrimps and sea-snail- s. I then procured another of sticklebacks from the Museum, the female Eir near spawning. Withing twenty-fou- r hours the male was busy in his pleasant work of nest-makin- g, his litlebody glowing with Vermillion and all the hues of the rainbow, and I can describe from personal observation fucts in natural history which Dot for the aquarium conld never have been known. The nest is made of fragments of seaweed, and the whole duty devolves upon the male. The con- struction occupied him about two days. His activi- ty wag wonderful. On the third day I judged by the action of both fishes that the nest was complete and the moment of spawning at hand. The open- ing in the nest was not quite so large as a three-ce- nt piece. Taking a last survey of the new djrui-cil- e, the male then drove the female into it, and 6he remained there about seventy seconds. M'hen she entered the nest the excitement of the male was o intense that his back changed from a dark green to a pure silver. The moment she had passed through tbe nest and came out denuded ol her spawn, his cotors resumed their full brilliancy, and he re- newed his activity in adding fibres of sea-we- ed to the nest, carrying them in his mouth, adjusting them with the utmost care, and keeping them in place by the aid of particles of gravel diligently collected from the bottom of the Unk. I should like to picture before your readers my aquarium as it now appears. The water is as transparent as light. The brown rocks and bright with each other, sea-lettu- ce finely contrast ?reen actiniae white, red and brown are in full bloom, the delicate lace-wo- rk of their florescence expanded. Shrimps, with their beautifully trans parent forms, are ceaselessly traveling across the area of the tank, and Mr. Stickleback, from rosy morn to dewy eve, is incessantly darting into the minuture caves, searching for animalcule or small Crustacea, radiant with vermillion and blue nd emerald, his eyes glowing like carbuncles, and ever and anon hovering over his nest, as a humming- bird flutters around a flower, and woe to the stray shrimp that approaches that sacred and well-guard- ed spot. In fifteen days I expect to see a shoal of young Sticklebacks in his company. In a subsequent commnnication, the writer con- tinued his interesting description as follows : "In the account of my salt water aquarium, which you deemed of sufficient interest to publish, I mentioned that in about fifteen days I expected to have a shoal of sticklebacks. They came sooner . T . .1 Tl.. VtAtflfr ft t Bt. vlwut AJt man i eipcvtcu. anc urot hob uidiuiucu acci- dentally on the fourteenth day after the female spawned, and your correspondent anticipated that his experiment had resulted in failure. Better luck awaited me, however. I perceived on the morning following the accident that the wale stickleback still hovered around the spot, that his gorgeous colors were increased in brilliancy, and that he was extraordinarily excited and vigilant. If even a stray snail came near his nest, he would seize by the fleshy part, carry it across the tank, and angri- ly throw it into the most distant coner, and woe to the lucklesss shrimp that dared to come withing six inches of his demolished domicile ; while to touch the outside of the glass wall with the finger was to throw him into a lrenzy of pugnaciousness. I therefore took a magnifying glass, and began a careful examination of the locality of the broken nest, end I confess to sharing somewhat in tt,e ex- citement of my little freind of the crimson and emerald vesture, when I discovered a school of young sticklebacks, which, on dispensing with the glass, I could barely distinguish with the naked eve. They were congregated in a cave or twain close to the damaged nest, and for the first day they were not permitted to stray the eighth of an inch from that locality. On the second day they were permitted, now clearly visible to the naked eye, but infinitessimal in their proportions, to spread into a shoal of about an inch and a half in diameter. If one straggled away from the rest, Mr. Stickleback very promptly took it in his mouth as a cat would ber kitten, and deposited it close byhe nest, in such a summary manner as plainly to say 'Stop Uam, witniorirnarit rfil irmt Inarri kKoilianrto bni IUCIV IWt UUtlUU4VUV UUV J Wsa WUVMIWUVW good behavior.' "What most interested and surprised me, bow-eve- r, was, that toward sundown, their vigilant guardian gently drove them all into the nest and carefully covered them over with sea weed, literal- ly pot them to bed and tucked in the clothes, as carefully and tenderly as ever fond mother perform- ed the same offices lor her darling child, which, considering the sex of the guardian, 6truck me as highly honorable to his parental character. On tbe third day I write when they are only four days old they were permitted a wider range, lia-b-la always to he brought back as before wbeu they strayed too far, and were put to bed a little later. Tbey were stirring, too, this morning, a little ear- lier than they were yesterday morning. Thus have I been enabled, and thus may any of your readers be enabled, to increase tbe knowledge of natural history in those of its most interesting phases which have heretofore been secluded from human observa- tion. Permit me once more to say that there can not be a purer ana more instructive nome pleasure than an aquarium." . . A Thmluso Scixb A noise was heard on deck, the dog-wat- ch sprung from his caboose, seized tbe glg-Wm- p, auu u.yiu utci iic uucjn w , made him shin up the bowsprit, catch bold of the sky-scrap- er, which he used so freely on the keelson that he rubbed off. the shoe of the anchor, which was caught by tbe cat barpings, who commenced to spanker with the boom till she burst through the stays, catting the topsail ties, grabbed the mon- key's tail, which knocked a Jew's eye out of the Terk'e bead, caught the snip round the waist with one hand, boxed the compass with the other, till the cook cried, and the captain applied the leaches of the foresail to the inflamed eye of tbe astonish- - 17 A pleasure of which we are pure to repent can never De a peaceiui one. Bkactuti Extract You cannot go into the mea- dow and pluck up a single daisy by the roots, with- out breaking up a society of nice relations and de- tecting a principle more extensive and refined than mere gravitation. The handful ofearth thatfollows the tiay roots of the flowers is replete with social elements. A little social circle has been formed around that germinating daisy. The sunbeam and the dew drop met there, and the soft summer breeze came whispering through the tall grass to join the concert. The earth took them to the daisy rem: and all went to work to show that flower of e . . ... . r ' . T il . the sun. .Each mingled iu toe noney 01 us iduu-enc- e, and they nursed the "wee canny thing" with an aliment that made it erow. And when it lifted its eyes towards the sky they wove a soft carpet of grass lor its feet. Ana tne sun saw it tnrougn wie green leaves and smiles as it passed on; and by star- light and monlight they worked on. And the daisy lifted up its head, and one morning while the sun was looking, it put on its silver-rimme- d diadem, and showed its yellow petals to the stars. A Sensible Thing to Say and Do Archbishop Hughes, at the anniversary of the Mount St. Vin- cent Academy in New I'ork, a short time since, made an excellent speech. He said that he was going, at the next session, to inaugurate a new study. He was going to introduce into the estab- lishment what he called " the Science of the Cu- isine," meaning the whole art and mystery of cook- ing dinners and keeping house. Every young lady, he 6aid, though 6he were the daughter of a Queen, ought to understand the entire management of that 6phereof life of which she is the beautiful mis- tress. Herald. A teacher, one day, endeavoring to make a pupil understand the nature and application of a passive verb, said : "A passive verb is expressive of the nature of receiving an action as, Peter is beaten. Now what did Peter do ! "Well. I don't know." answered the boy. paus ing a moment, with the gravest countenance possi- ble. " without he hollered!" Getting Rid of a Bore. A pretended natural- ist was boring Hook with the distinctions in form- ation and habits between two animals of the eame eentis. Hook, who neither knew nor wished to know anything about it, said, " It flashes on me now ; I 6ee the distinction ; it's just the same in swine !" " The same ?" cried the astonished nat- uralist. " Yes," said Hook, "you know some pigs are drioen, and some pigs are rarf." FAMILY MARKET! B. F.

THE POLYNESIAN.

SATURDAY. SEPTEMBER 29. I860.

A La meatI dearly loved sweet Nelly Lee,

Tht belle or all tbe town ;

Her lock of sunny brown,

Thft wreathed ber fair and lovely face.

And Tan of witching grace,Sell gently down

Over ber inowy shoulders, free

la coil of richest fold ;

Around my poor heart rolled

Their silken band. Oh, she befiddled

Ke, M Delilah diddled, gamsoa of old 1

Bow a the little charming thief

Would whisper Thou art mine !"

.. Of course," said I. "I'm thine!"Till cousin Tom came home from sea

Captain then out of me

He took the ahine.

Ala! and must I speak my grief?"

Thi heavy naval iweU

Married my little Nell !

But yet, amid my deepest woe,

tit a relief to know

lie whips ber well !

Daaaralie lAft fFlif.A correspondent of the New York Commercial

give s graphic account of the habits of a pair ofsticklebacks in his aquarium, and of the general ap-

pearance of bis marine museum. He says :

About a month ago, tbe male stickleback beganto assume very brilliant colors, a Vermillion red un-

derneath, and a deep sea green on the back, andthen to form nests in the sea lettuce, and the fe-

males spawned. For a day or two the nests werevigilantly watched ty the males, but subsequentlywere abandoned. Suspecting that the hermit crabshad been filibustering upon them, I removed thosegentlemen from the tank, with everything else like-

ly to disturb the process I was anxious to observe,leaving in it, in fact, only the actiniae, and a few

hrimps and sea-snail- s. I then procured anotherof sticklebacks from the Museum, the female

Eir near spawning. Withing twenty-fou- r hoursthe male was busy in his pleasant work of nest-makin- g,

his litlebody glowing with Vermillion andall the hues of the rainbow, and I can describe from

personal observation fucts in natural history whichDot for the aquarium conld never have been known.

The nest is made of fragments of seaweed, andthe whole duty devolves upon the male. The con-

struction occupied him about two days. His activi-

ty wag wonderful. On the third day I judged by

the action of both fishes that the nest was completeand the moment of spawning at hand. The open-

ing in the nest was not quite so large as a three-ce- nt

piece. Taking a last survey of the new djrui-cil- e,

the male then drove the female into it, and6he remained there about seventy seconds. M'hen

she entered the nest the excitement of the male waso intense that his back changed from a dark green

to a pure silver. The moment she had passedthrough tbe nest and came out denuded ol her spawn,his cotors resumed their full brilliancy, and he re-

newed his activity in adding fibres of sea-we- ed to thenest, carrying them in his mouth, adjusting themwith the utmost care, and keeping them in placeby the aid of particles ofgravel diligently collectedfrom the bottom of the Unk.

I should like to picture before your readers myaquarium as it now appears. The water is astransparent as light. The brown rocks and bright

with each other,sea-lettu- ce finely contrast?reenactiniae white, red and brown are in fullbloom, the delicate lace-wo- rk of their florescenceexpanded. Shrimps, with their beautifully transparent forms, are ceaselessly traveling across thearea of the tank, and Mr. Stickleback, from rosymorn to dewy eve, is incessantly darting into theminuture caves, searching for animalcule or smallCrustacea, radiant with vermillion and blue ndemerald, his eyes glowing like carbuncles, and everand anon hovering over his nest, as a humming-

bird flutters around a flower, and woe to the strayshrimp that approaches that sacred and well-guard- ed

spot. In fifteen days I expect to see a shoal ofyoung Sticklebacks in his company.

In a subsequent commnnication, the writer con-

tinued his interesting description as follows :

"In the account of my salt water aquarium,which you deemed of sufficient interest to publish,I mentioned that in about fifteen days I expected tohave a shoal of sticklebacks. They came sooner. T . .1 Tl.. VtAtflfr ft t Bt. vlwut AJtman i eipcvtcu. anc urot hob uidiuiucu acci-dentally on the fourteenth day after the femalespawned, and your correspondent anticipated thathis experiment had resulted in failure. Better luckawaited me, however. I perceived on the morningfollowing the accident that the wale sticklebackstill hovered around the spot, that his gorgeouscolors were increased in brilliancy, and that he wasextraordinarily excited and vigilant. If even astray snail came near his nest, he would seize bythe fleshy part, carry it across the tank, and angri-

ly throw it into the most distant coner, and woe tothe lucklesss shrimp that dared to come withing sixinches of his demolished domicile ; while to touchthe outside of the glass wall with the finger was tothrow him into a lrenzy of pugnaciousness.

I therefore took a magnifying glass, and began acareful examination of the locality of the brokennest, end I confess to sharing somewhat in tt,e ex-

citement of my little freind of the crimson andemerald vesture, when I discovered a school ofyoung sticklebacks, which, on dispensing with theglass, I could barely distinguish with the nakedeve. They were congregated in a cave or twainclose to the damaged nest, and for the first day theywere not permitted to stray the eighth of an inchfrom that locality. On the second day they werepermitted, now clearly visible to the naked eye, butinfinitessimal in their proportions, to spread intoa shoal of about an inch and a half in diameter.If one straggled away from the rest, Mr. Sticklebackvery promptly took it in his mouth as a cat wouldber kitten, and deposited it close byhe nest, insuch a summary manner as plainly to say 'Stop

Uam, witniorirnarit rfil irmt Inarri kKoilianrto bniIUCIV IWt UUtlUU4VUV UUV J Wsa WUVMIWUVW

good behavior.'"What most interested and surprised me, bow-eve- r,

was, that toward sundown, their vigilantguardian gently drove them all into the nest andcarefully covered them over with sea weed, literal-ly pot them to bed and tucked in the clothes, ascarefully and tenderly as ever fond mother perform-ed the same offices lor her darling child, which,considering the sex of the guardian, 6truck me ashighly honorable to his parental character. Ontbe third day I write when they are only fourdays old they were permitted a wider range, lia-b-la

always to he brought back as before wbeu theystrayed too far, and were put to bed a little later.Tbey were stirring, too, this morning, a little ear-

lier than they were yesterday morning. Thus haveI been enabled, and thus may any of your readersbe enabled, to increase tbe knowledge of naturalhistory in those of its most interesting phases whichhave heretofore been secluded from human observa-tion. Permit me once more to say that there cannot be a purer ana more instructive nome pleasurethan an aquarium." . .

A Thmluso Scixb A noise was heard on deck,the dog-wat- ch sprung from his caboose, seized tbeglg-Wm-

p, auu u.yiu utci iic uucjn w ,made him shin up the bowsprit, catch bold of thesky-scrap- er, which he used so freely on the keelson

that he rubbed off. the shoe of the anchor, whichwas caught by tbe cat barpings, who commenced tospanker with the boom till she burst through thestays, catting the topsail ties, grabbed the mon-

key's tail, which knocked a Jew's eye out of theTerk'e bead, caught the snip round the waist withone hand, boxed the compass with the other, tillthe cook cried, and the captain applied the leachesof the foresail to the inflamed eye of tbe astonish- -

Bkactuti Extract You cannot go into the mea-

dow and pluck up a single daisy by the roots, with-

out breaking up a society of nice relations and de-

tecting a principle more extensive and refined thanmere gravitation. The handful ofearth thatfollowsthe tiay roots of the flowers is replete with socialelements. A little social circle has been formedaround that germinating daisy. The sunbeam andthe dew drop met there, and the soft summer breeze

came whispering through the tall grass to jointhe concert. The earth took them to the daisyrem: and all went to work to show that flower ofe . . ... . r ' . T il .the sun. .Each mingled iu toe noney 01 us iduu-enc- e,

and they nursed the "wee canny thing" withan aliment that made it erow. And when it liftedits eyes towards the sky they wove a soft carpet ofgrass lor its feet. Ana tne sun saw it tnrougn wiegreen leaves and smiles as it passed on; and by star-

light and monlight they worked on. And the daisylifted up its head, and one morning while the sunwas looking, it put on its silver-rimme- d diadem,and showed its yellow petals to the stars.

A Sensible Thing to Say and Do ArchbishopHughes, at the anniversary of the Mount St. Vin-

cent Academy in New I'ork, a short time since,made an excellent speech. He said that he wasgoing, at the next session, to inaugurate a newstudy. He was going to introduce into the estab-

lishment what he called " the Science of the Cu-

isine," meaning the whole art and mystery of cook-

ing dinners and keeping house. Every young lady,he 6aid, though 6he were the daughter of a Queen,ought to understand the entire management of that6phereof life of which she is the beautiful mis-

tress. Herald.

A teacher, one day, endeavoring to make apupil understand the nature and application of apassive verb, said :

"A passive verb is expressive of the nature ofreceiving an action as, Peter is beaten. Nowwhat did Peter do !

"Well. I don't know." answered the boy. pausing a moment, with the gravest countenance possi-

ble. " without he hollered!"

Getting Rid of a Bore. A pretended natural-ist was boring Hook with the distinctions in form-

ation and habits between two animals of the eameeentis. Hook, who neither knew nor wished toknow anything about it, said, " It flashes on menow ; I 6ee the distinction ; it's just the same inswine !" " The same ?" cried the astonished nat-

uralist. " Yes," said Hook, "you know somepigs are drioen, and some pigs are rarf."
