A IVariilug for Eutliualatic Democrats
liable do Jllost of Tholif (ironing
The First Few Vear
Pittsburgh Dlapatcli, Rep.
Having now somewhat recovered from
their astonishment at the dimensions of
their victory, Democratic leaders every
where are hastening to express their sense
of the great rcsponsioiiity it places upon
them, and to declare what the" party will
do when it gets control of both branches
of Congress, and above all what great
things are set down for 183 i. All this re
calls a little incident in the life of our first
parents.
When Cain was born, he was a genuine
surprise to Adam and his estimable wife.
They had never had such a thing iu the
house before, and had no experienced
aunts to tell them what to do with it. But
Cain was a pushing child, and quite ca
pablo of raibing himself if occasion de
manded. One of tho first things he taught
his proud aud happy father was that a
healthy infant required a vast amouut of
carrying. Io matter lipw much nay was
down and a rain was .coming up, when
little Cainy decided to take a rido on pa's
.shoulder there was nothing to do but to
tako him up. lie contrived to keep Adam
trotting about pretty much all the time.
Now, of course, they had weighed tho
child when it was born. Grceu as they
were, they knew enough to do that.
They had not tho approved appliances for
ascertaining which are iu common use
new, oven by the dog's meat man, but by
taking his little Cam in one hand and a
stone of about equal weight in the other,
and estimating tho weight of the stone,
Adam figured out that tho baby weighed
about 10 pounds, 8 ounces. Ho probably
exaggerated a few ounces. There is no
authentic recoid of a time when j oung
fathers to!d tho strict truth about the
weight of their first-born, aud it is safe to
say that Adam was no better thau his
descendants in this regard.
Tho child grew aud nourished aad kepi,
his father up at night for a month. Adam
had noticed that the baby was mote of. a
load thau ho used to be, aud at the cud of
tho month ho weighed him again. Twenty
one pounds now. Father Adam bought
out a smooth place on the barn door and
a soft stone and began to figure. By aud
by ho called Eva : " This thing evidently
doubles its weight once a mouth. Iu a
month nioio ii will weigh 42 pounds. In
two months it will weigh S4 pounds. 1'vo
figured it out as far as I have room on
this door, aad here's what it comes to :
In two years our dailiug will weigh o51,
1)21,030 pounds, and iu tho name of
heaven, Evr, how am I going to carry all
that."
Eve's answer is not of public interest,
aud it is improper to pry into tho piivato
life of a woithy couple, both of whom are
now dead, except so far as it is necessary
to point tho moral. Wo all know how
needless was Adam's alarm. The child
didn't coutinue to grow at that rale, and
befoie the two year's expired it was c.ipa
b!o of cuing lor ittcll'.
Time lightens all burdens, aud a boom
doesu't keep on the way it begins any
mora than a baby.

ho Threatened.
Two of the many Massachusetts people
to whom the thought of Ben Butler as
governor of tho stato has baeu a night
mare of the largest calibre, are a young
married couple living in a town a few
miles below Springfield. Tboy talked it
over, shudderingly, tha day biforc elec
tion. Tho husband said that, although
Butler's election was coniideutly predict
ed, ho could never beliovo that tho grand
old rarty would ever allow tho grand old
oommouwcilth to be blighted with the
desolating iguomiuity of such an eveut.
IIo had too much faith in the wisdom and
mercy of an overruling Provideneo to
credit tho idea for an instant. But if
tho worst did happoa ho could no longer
breath tho tainted air of his native s-tatc.
" If Butler should be elected," said ho to
his wife, " wo will pack right up to mor
row and move into another state. No
more Massachusetts for me.''
It was lato when ho woke iu tho morn
ing after election day. Ills wife had been
up somo time and of her ho inquired about
tho preparations for breakfast. " I have
been busy," was her reply, " but not
with the bicakfaEt. I am packing up
aud getting ready to move becauso you
said we must get out of tho stato to day,
sure," ' Gimme that paper, " said tho
head of tho family. His wifo handed
over tbe Springfield Republican aud But
ler's deadly foo surveyed it for soiar min
utes sadly and sileutly. " I gues-," ho
observed mournfully to his partner as ho
throw the paper aside, ' That you can
unpack those things and got breakfast. 1
don't caro much about living in Massa
chusetts much longer, but just cast your
eye over that paper again and tell me
what stato there is left for me to go to.
Perhaps you can find one but I uan't.
They've all gone the same way."
That family has not moved.

John Holmes, of Alabama, has raised
eleven children, seven boys and four girls.
Ho has seventy-three grandchildren, forty
three boys and thirty girls. Mr. Holmes
is seventy-nino years old, weighs three
hundred pounds, and has killed fifteen
hundred deer and one bear. Tho eutiio
family live in Morgan county, except ono
son, who lives in Blout. All the older
ones belong to the Missionary Baptist
church.
Mr R. R. Bishop, who has just been de
feated in tho Massachusetts gubernatoiial
election, lives in a "forest homo" on
Beacon street, Boston, about eight miles
from the state house, and among the pic
turesque and rustio surroundings of New
ton Centre. His large, square mansion
bears the aspect of a house built in colon
ial times, although it is not yet a score of
years old. It stands in tho middlo of a
spacious lawn, girt about on every side
with a natural forest of oaks, elms, ma
ples and chestnuts.
Tho Ntue Freie Pressc, of Vienna, con
tained recently the following matrimonial
advertisement : ' My name is Frederick.
I am poor and I am old and ugly. If any
thing surpasses my supidity it is my ma
lignity. Nevertheless -I am looking out
for a wife. Answer to be addressed to
Who Will Venture." According to the
Neue Freie Preste tho newspaper clerk's
astonishment whon tho advertisement was
handed to him for insertion yras only ex
ceeded when on the following day hun
dreds of replies flowed into the office. It
subsequently transpired that the adver
tisement eminated from a chevalier d'in
dustrie, who is now in jail for swindling.
One of the Chinese student formerly at
Harford was understood to bare been
deeply enamored of a girl whom he met in
society there, aud to have had some expec
tation of winning her. Bat he writes back
from China that he is involuntarily a hut
band. He found, on returning home, that
his parents had chosen a wife for him. " I
tried to break it off," he says, " bat with
out success, as the Chinese consider an en
gagement of marriage the most sacred
contract. If it is once made, it can never
be broken. According to the Chinese cus
tom the younger brother cannot marry be
fore an older one. I have two younger
brothers who have to wait for me to before
they can. Therefore I was urged very
strongly by my relatives to marry right
away, so I consented. Of coarse it is not
a lovo affair, but I shall try to do my
duty."
Dartviuiau Genealogy.
The following dialogue occurred in the
Faubourg St. Hcnorc, Paris, between a
patriarchal gentleman and bis grand
daughter :
" What makes your hair so white,
grandpapa ?" inquired the maiden.
" I am very old, my dear ; I was in tho
ark," says grandpapa, humorously, bat
with a reckless regard for truth which
does not prepossess us in the old man's
favor.
" Oh !' says tie c'aiM, regarding her
it-.!atrve with a fresh interest, "are you
Noah ?"
'No I am not Noah."
" Are you Sheni, then ?'
" No, I am not Shem."
" Are you Ham ?"
41 No, I am not Ham."
" Then you must be Japhetb," says
mademoisolle, at the end of her historical
tether, and growing rather impatient of
the ditJfeulty that surrounded her aged
relative's identification.
" No, I am not Japholh."
" Then, grandpapa, you're a beast !''

Wanamaker's.
Silk novelties innumerable
and indescribable. Everything
that ladies or dressmakers have
occasion for in matching, deco
rating, combining. What we
are remarkable for, more than
for anything else in silks, is va
riety ; or, at least, we are re
puted so. You hear it said by
everybody: "If you want to
match anything, or find a rare
silk, even an unexpectable one,
go to Wanamaker's."
The other peculiarity that
everybody expects to find here
is less pleasant to speak of;
lower prices. We put it second,
because there are people who
don't credit us with lower
prices. Still, we imagine that
if one should assert die con
trary, almost everybody in Phil
adelphia would believe it.
Oftener we speak of other
aspects of our trade ; aspects
less obvious or less recognized.
It is well occasionally to give
old news.
Noxt-outer clrclo, south- cniranco to main
building.
Warm skirts for ladies, and
leggings for ladies, girls and lit
tle girls. The warm skirts are
satin, satin-and-cloth, satin-and-felt,
satin-and-Italian -cloth, and
Italian, all quilted; cloth, flannel
and felt prettily trimmed, not
quilted, warm enough without.
The leggings are all sorts ; one
very useful and fairly pretty
sort, woven, at two-thirds value,
25 to 65 cents.
West of south entrance to main buiMinn.
Furs have to be thought of.
We're busy enough as to mak
ing. If we advertise at all, we
ought to say what will not op
press us with too much making.
Perhaps this it is. A great many
seal coats and fur-lined circu
lars are ready-made. More
sizes arc ready-made here than
anybody expects; especially the
unexpected sizes. Ready-made
work we can make in July.
Why shouldn't we make all the
shapes and sizes ready-made ?
U03 Chestnut.
Black satin rhademaes and
satin de Lyons, 25 to 35 cents
below our own recent prices, of
all grades from $1 to $2 ; and
we guess our prices haven't
been very high ; have diey?
Nriit-outcr circle, south en triune t' m:,lu
building.
Wool serge embroidered with
silk dots that ought to sell for
$1.50 no that isn't the way to
put it; it ought to sell according
to our theory, for just as littl:
as we can afford ; and that is 75
cents.
Look out for such now. It's
time for over-buying and all
sorts of mistakes to show them
selves. We try to keep ready
to turn other folk's mistakes to
account for ourselves and for
you.
