WEIGHING THE BABY. ETHEL LYNN. •'Bow many pounds does the baby weigh— Baby who came but amonth ago? : Bow manypounds from the crowning curl To the rosy point of the restless toe?” Grandfather ties the ’kerchief’s knot, Tenderly guides’the swinging weight, And carefully over biß glasses peers To read the record,'“only eight.” Softly theecho goes around; • • The father laughs at the, tiny giri; The faizyoungmotherSihgs the words, • While grandmother smooths the golden curl. And stooping above the precious thing Beetles a kiss within a prayer, Murmuring softly,' “.Little one, Grandfather did net weigh you fair.” Bobody weighed the baby’s smile, 1 i I , Or the love that came with the helplesß one; Nobody weighed the threads of care from which a woman’s life is spun. -. No index tells the mighty worth Of little baby’s quiet breath— . A soft, unceasing metronome, Patient and faithful until death. Nobody, weighed the baby’s soul For here onearth_.no weight them be Tbat could avail; God only knows Its -value in eternity. - Only eight pounds to hold a soul That seeks no-angel’s .silver wing. But shrinesit in-this human guise, - W ithin so frail and.small a thing! Oh ! mother, laugh your merry note; Be gay and giad. butdon’t-forget ~ From baby’s eyes looks out a soul Tbat olaims a home in Eden yet. EASY LESSONS IN 6EOBKAPHT. BY “GRIS.” Tlie Eartb. The Earth is an old subject, we: don’t iknow how old. Wise men have endea vored to ascertain its age in various •ways, and have succeeded very well, only differing in their calculations a few thousand centuries or so. We have several reasons for writing upon the Earth, the principal one being the imperfect facilities afforded for get ting upon any other planet to write. Nothing prevents our writing upon the ■sun. or the moon, except the difficulty in getting there. The earth is the third planet in order from the sun, and the largest within the belt of the planetoids. We have wondered sometimes, why the earth did not have a belt all to herself, being the Champion of the Universe? The ancients looked upon the earth as a flat disc; swimming* upon water like a piece of toast in a basin of milk. Once upon a time a lot of adventurous young ancients started out to find the jumping off place, and continuing on a straight line they were astonished 'to find them selves on the very spot whence they started. They informed their parents of the circumstance, and they, after about a century of painful and laborious thought upon the subject, came to the conclusion that the earth must be ronnd, “because if it ain’t” triumphantly asked a jolly old ancient, “how, could the boys ha’ got around it ?” There was no get ting around that, and the earth has been of a spherical form ever since. It is estimated that about two-thirds of the surface of the globe is covered with water. Although millions of living creatures slake their thirst daily, the quantity of water has not been mate rially diminished for centuries past, at least, not since the introduction, of . whisky shops, which prove a great sav ing of water and are therefore of im mense btpefit to navigation. The greatest distance from the earth to the sun is 96,000,000 of miles, and the least distance something; over 94,000,000 miles." A saving of 2,000,000 of miles could be effected if a railroad should ever connect the,two planets, by taking the least distance. This would shorten the time consumed in running, and reduce the expenses very materially. Any rail road mfan will.tell you that. ' The mean distance from the earth to the sun is 95,000,000 miles, which is no rndan distance, either, when you try to walk it. .. ; The earth moves around the sun from west to east, consuming 36S days and' 6 hoars in every revolution, traveling nights and Sundays. Joshua, it will be rememberedby some of our oldest citi zens, once commanded the sun-to stand still, and sheis- standing,- still. It ain’t every fool otaplanett hat cap get around the sun.; -The earth i does; it,; however. She would get around most any thing. The earth turns upon its axis, making one revolution every twerity-four hours, except in Mexico—there they have are volntion two or three times a day. The Earth and her axis Were thick as peas together at one time, but one day the Earth got down on her axis and turned ®n it. It is the revolutions of the earth that make night and day to everybody but printers and editors who work on morn ing papers—it is all day with them. After digging a certain depth into the bowels of tne earth the- temperature be-: aomeß warm, and it grows warmer as jyou warm to your work, so. that at the depth of thirty- miles—as we are in formed by a gentleman who dug that distance one July morning—everything as like molten iron at a white heat. There is good reason for believing that people who cheat the printer, and who try to get into j shows without paying for it, are sent thirty miles into the bowels of the earth when they die. The earth is not such a dismal place to live upon as many try to make out fio far as our knowledge extends—and we know probably as much about as anybody—it is far preferable tq any of its sister planets -as' a permanent resi dence. At least, we are satisfied with it, apd intend to remain here as long as we am “on earth.”— Cin. Times. Isaac Tatioe, an orphan boy, came to this country from England some years since, and on reaching Cleveland', blacked boots and did all sorts of drudgery. He WB6 afterward a farmer in. Michigan and 'a* lumberman in Wisconsin. He became' rich, and determined that a large portion of lispropertyahonldbedevotedto-the-ea>: dowmept P/anorphanasylcm.

Bbcrman and His Ways. | The idea generally prevails that com manding generals are very didactic on : the battle field, and give their orders in precise language and stentorian voice, j A little familiarity with actual war will Isc on dispel this false impression, par* j tieularly jf you" meet ‘ Shefman on the [ battle-field, for there is less of dignity, i display and grandiloquence in him than | aDy other general whom I have' met during the war.. At the battle.of Chat tanooga heigave hia orders’ for? the ad vance of his troops against the enemy’s strongly fortified position to his brother in-law, General Hugh Ewing, in the ! words uttered betw,een.two pufe at a bad cigar: “I guess, Ewing, if you are ready, 1 you,may as well go ahead.” Ewing asked a few questittnß in Tegard td x re taining the eschelon formation of his command as then marshaled for the advance. Sherman replied, "I,want, you to keep the left well toward the 5 river (the Chickamauga), and keep up the formation four hundred yards dis tance, until you get to the foot of the "And shall we. keep it. after that?” asked Ewings '• • •■ “Oh, you may go up the hill as you like, ’ ’said Shermanand then,he_added, sbito voce, with a smile and a wink to his aid and Gen. Ewing’js brother. Charley' Ewing, who stood near by,“if you can.” As General Ewing was mounting his' horse and'about, to leave, Sherman called out to him: “I say, Ewing, don’t call for help until you actually need it.?’ General Frank Blair and others of the Army of the Tennessee,’ who were standing near Sherman, laughed >at this in sueh -a manner as left the impression on the minds of others, as well as 1 myself, that on some,former occasion General Ewing had called for help before Gen. Sherman thought he really needed it. It iB recorded of Sherman that, on witnessing from the top of a rice-mill on the Ogeeche River the capture of Fort McAllister by, General Hazen’s forces, and the successful termination by that capture of the “march to the sea,” he exclaimed, imitating the voice of. a negro. “Dis child don’t sleep dis night,” and hurried off to meet General Foster and complete the junction of the two armies. * */* When the report of his lunacy was first calculated, Sherman was much chagrined at it, and often re ferred to it in bitter terms. Time and success have enabled him 1 to frown it down, and justified him in laughing at it. He once laughingly referred to this report about himself, and the rumor which simultaneously prevailed regard ing Grant’s drunkenness duringthe bat tle of Shiloh, as illustrative of the sriendship existing between them. “You see,” he said to a gentleman, “Grant stood by me when I was crazy, and I ftood by him when he was drunk.” One moment his legs are crossed, and ; the next both are on the floor. He sits a moment, and then rises and paces the floor. He must talk, quick, sharp, and . yet not harshly, all the time making his odd gestures, which, no less than the : intonation of. his voice, serve to empha size biß language. He cannot bear a clog upon his thoughts nor an interrup tion to his language. He admits of no opposition. ,He overrides everything. He never hesitates at interrupting any one, but cannot bear to be interrupted himself. . He is very well aware, and candidly admits, that his temper is un commonly bad, and what is worse, he makes no attempt to control or correct it. In speaking of the late General Mc- Pherson, of-the Army of Tennessee, he once remarked: “He is as good an officer as I am—is younger, and has a better temper.” Grant, once speaking of Sher man’s peevishness, i said, ‘Sherman is impetuous and faulty, but he sees his faults as soon as any man.’ The laet is, if Sherman’s faults alone could be given to another, they would serve to distin guish him from the common herd.” The Population of Plttsbargh. On the ninth day of January, 1796, the number of Inhabitants in the borough of Pittsburgh, as taken by the assessors, was 1,395. In 1817 the population was 7,000. From advance sheets of the Quarterly Trade Circular, a publication which every ciiizen of the country should take, we are enabled to trace the progress of the city since the last date named. In 1840 the population of Pitts burgh 38,931. The city continued to increase, as the following table will show: 1840. Population.. 38 931 Increase from 1830. 21 930 1850. Population ....92,712 Increase from 53 783 1860 Population...... 123,322 Increase from 1850, 80 6lt» 18t6. .Estimate from . fro. Ottaxables,l69,22o Increase from iB6O, *5 828 In explanation of this table it is pro per to say that the population oflBsoand 1860, is the aggregate of the various mu nicipalities and townships, which should properly be consolidated as Pittsburgh, and embrace an area of about four aud a half miles by four. The population-Qf 1866 is an estimate from the number of: taxablesin the same area, allowing a population of five and a half for each taxable. Many statisticians claim six as the proper ratio in Buchestimates,ahd others contend that for manufacturing populations, seven.is the proper propor tion of population to each taxable. From our knowledge of the pomilatioia this article is intended to set forth,'we think five and a half a fair ratio.' By this it would seem that the population of what is the community of Pittsburgh has in creased in fch e following- ratios; ; -.i -, FroimlBso to 1860 about? 38 per cent. > From 1860 to 1866 about 27' per cent, and, that in twenty-six years the popu lation of the same area has increased about eighty-two per cent.' Hfefe, in Striking contrast with this, it is proper to state that the census of 1860 gives |o the city of Pittsburgh but 49,217 popula tion, and that of 1850 but 46,601—an increase of blit 2,616 in ten years where the increase in the community is really by the censuß3o,7lo. The simple reason is that the increase is outside the limits > of the city proper. It is not improbable says the Quarterly Trade Circular, if the J>e°ple of Pittsburgh keep up the absurd municipal distinctions, tnat some fature : day will see its, populationreturn in.the census at 20,000; for the plainreason that' a P i?'9?'^ 8 h O Ps increase, the dweliihgB are lessened; the population flowing borough or' township 1 most convenient to. the business which has evicted them from the corporate limits of the old' oi ty of Pi ttsburgh.'
