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.

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.

Ueut.-Gen. 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.' When
