At Hartford, Monday evening, Mrs. Colt, widow of tbe late Samuel Colt, new a inrro and brilliant receotion in honor of her only child, Caldwell Hart Colt, who that day attained the ase of 21 vears. It was one of the finest affairs of the kind ever sriven in this city, and was attended by a large number of wealthy and otherwise distinguished people, flionaay morning Colt's full bund Rave the young man nd tn friends a serenade, surprising them while at breakfast.

Colt's inti mate friends from New lork were stopping with him. and all the fine horses in the stable were freely exercised, one new team driven tandem attracting much attention. Many per sons from Boston, Newport and other places were the guests of Mrs. Colt, though stopping at the various hotels. For a week past, Arms mere, the familv mansion, was in the hands of skilful decorators, and Monday night the house presented a inaemneent sight.

15. Shooting wild geese was, in the early days of California, quite an important industry with those men who hunted for the market, and was very attractive to the few amateurs tbat indulged in the sport. In all the counties bordering ou the bay wild geese were unusually plentiiui, and it is no exaggeration to say that their numbers might be computed by hundreds of thousands, for hundreds of acres of land were covered by them. They did not, as now, interfere with cultivation, but they consumed vast quantities of grass, thus depriving the cattle of much feed, and were a nuisance to tne raneberosjuot only on account of this consump tion of ieed, but also because their deposit burned up the grass and rendered it unfit for cattle. In those days goose shooting was a profitable business for the hunter, and it was no uncommon thing for a skillful one to realize from $100 to $150 a day, even when he obtained but four or five shots.

(A shot in hunter's parlance means the discharge of both barrels.) The system pursued by the market nunters in shooting the geese was as follows: A docile and good natured ox was generally selected by the hunter for his attendant. Then the geese were found on the large and open plains, where they fed all through the day, going to water and returning morning and evening. The hunter marked a flock half or three quarters of a mile away from his starting point, and then put his ox in motion, allowing him to teed as he went along, in order to make the geese feel that it was all square and above board, and remain unconscious of the lurking figure that moved on behind tbe ox's hulk. Old goose hunters state positively that these oxen seem to take a perfect delight in assisting the shorter to work on to his game. They would approach the geese in an indirect way, never going straight toward them, and apparently feeding as they went along.

Goose shooting on this large scale was pursued from 1850 to 1857, in this State, and some men well known in San Francisco to day got their first start in life in this business. There were at least half a dozen engaged in it, whose wealth might be computed from $40,000 to $50,000, altogether the result of goose shooting. IAWBEXCE ITEMS. Lawrkkck, Nov. 26.

Tbe late Zach Chandler told a friend in Washington last winter that tbe election of Hayes cost bim $37,000, and showed a check book with the stubs, upon which the items were accounted, to show tbe truth of bis statement. He had a supreme contempt for the pecuniary meanness of Hayes, and talking to a Chicago Inter Ocean correspondent before Hayes became "stalwart," he said: I am told that he on lv spends $6,000 a year, and saves $44,000 out of his salary. When you go back to Washington you go and tell Hayes tbat I will fix it so tbat be can save his entire salary. He has been in office one year. He will receive $150, 000 if he lives out bis term.

At the different wharves all Sunday night and Monday, gangs of men were busy taking care of the catch. At an average price of six cents each, the calch has brought $15,000 to the pockets of the hardy fishermen. This money is distributed among a large number of men, who need just such a "God send" on the approach of winter.

This is the second good catch of this season, the first being on election day. A man who gives the mame of William H. Sheridan, and who appears to have made a business of stealing books from public libraries, was arrested at Worcester on Monday, through the instrumentality of Librarian Green of the public library, and taken to Clinton for trial, notice having been received that several books had been stolen from the Bigelow free public library Jhere.

The preparation of the new Bible, which is to be inspired by sweet reasonableness, has not made much advance jet. We lay before our readers the improved version of the first chapter of Genesis: 1.

There never was a beginning. 2. And Cosmos was homogeneous and undifferentiated, and somehow or another evolution began and molecules appeared. 3. And molecule evolved protoplasm, and rythmic thrills arose, and then there waa light.

4. And a spirit of envy was developed and formed the plastic cell whence arose tbe pri mordal germ. 5. And the primordal germ became protogene, and protogene somehow shaped cozoon, then was the dawn of life. 6.

And the herb yielding seed and the fruit tree yielding fruit after its own kind, whose seed is in itself, developed according to its own 7. The cattle after his kind, the beast of the earth after bis kind, and every creeping thing became evolved by heterogeneous segregation oni onnromitsint rliHsination of motion. an that hv aurvival of the fittest there evolved the simiads from the jelly fish, and tbe si mi ads differentiated themselves into the antro pomorphic primordal types. 9. And in due time one lost his tail and became man, and behold he was the most cunning of all animais.

The worthiness of the object appealed to all who have the prosperity of the Catholic Church at heart, and, in addition, the fact of its being practically the first large ball of the season, served to draw together an exceptionally large number of ladies and gentlemen of all stations, who could not have found a more pleasant manner in which to open the holiday season.

A Catholic pastor who was present at the Synod last week, at which the Archbishop addressed the clergy upon the school question, says that a wrong idea of the policy then marked out by his grace pre. vails in the public mind. Father Scully, says the gentleman in question, was publicly censured by the Archbishop, who declared that no priest had a right to denounce parents for not sending their children to the public schcols; that when the parochial school is inferior to the public school, a priest has no authority to insist that Catholic children shall be sent to the former; and that where the parochial school is the equal or the superior of the public school, and parents refuse to send tbeit children to the former the Bishop alone, according to the decision of the propaganda, has the right to deny the sacraments to oflending parents. Thi; same pastor says that Father Scully was present at the conference, and yet in the face ot all this, stood on the altar last Sunday and told his people that the Archbishop bad instructed the assembled clergymen to do as Father Scully had done. He states further that the school is not the real cause of the trouble in the Cambridge parish, but only the rampart behind wnich Father Scully shelters himself: that be has driven halt his people to other parishes to bear mass on Sundays, aud has insulted every priest in the archdiocese by proclaiming to the world that he would stir them up and give them new life ann energy.

He accounts for the Archbishop's forbearance in Father Scully's case by siutgesting that his grace fears that if the Cambridge pastor were suspended he might become another McNamara; but at the same time warns Father Scully that he may try the patience of his ec cleastical superior too far.
