A Houle foe Little Boys.
The London Telegrsph gives an ac
count of the Horne for Little Boys at Hor
ton Kirby, > near Farmington, England-
This institution is five years old, and at
its recent anniversary celebration the ex
amination of the boys was an interesting
part of the programme, as it disclosed not
only a high and useful proficiency among
the,lads in several branches of knowl•
edge, but also an admirable system / of
"object lessons," after .the plan common
in Switzerland, Germany and other ,Ea
ropeim countries. The distribution of
the prizes followed, Lord Cairns halving
a word for every boy as he frame
up to receive the reward of some
merit or other. A great teeny
solid and handscme writing desks
were given,'\ and then came the hboks
usually selected for school prizes.
"Have you ever read 'Robinson pre.
soe " his lordship asked one little lad
.with a bright and hopeful tace. "No,
sir," said the boy. "I envy you very
miich," was the rejoinder. Accordeons,
too, were among ttie prizes; and one can
fancY that the dormitories of the seven
dwellings will-be as fall ofnoises, sounds
and sweet airs as Prospero's isle, till
Father and Mother both will have had
something more than enough of it. One
boy, captain of the cricket eleven, walked
off under the weight of two bats, a Illicit)
of stumps and a ball. Others had chess
And draught not relit, with pieces; others
bad-boxes of• tools. And it seemed a
happy peculiarity of the prize-giving that,
unlike the strivers in the world's school,
all these little boys got exactly the prizes
they wanted.
There are two hundred and ten boys in
the Home, a certain proportion of whom
may have passed the ten-year boundary
while they have been in residence, though
the average would be nearer the age of
eight or nine years. llere is an analysis
of that total of two hundred and ten little
boys : Thirty .four have lost both parents,
eighty-eight have lost their fathers, thirty
six have lost th'eir mothers, eighteen have
been deserted by the* fathers, four have
been deserted by their mothers, pine have
:been deserted by both parent%' thirteen
have both parents living, who are either
invalids or in lunatic asylums or in pris
on; eight have pannts who are de
praved, and who make beggars and
thieves of their offspring. In all cases
• the children have been rescued from ig
norance, Nice and critne. One of these
lads picked up a florin on Saturday on
- the ground where the military band had
been playing. He took it to the leader
instantly, and it was owned by a mu
sician, who - gave the boy a shilling,
though he was about to ran off without
having waited for so much as bare thanks.
The Oldest City odd
Damascus is the oldest city in the
world. Tyre and Sidon have crumbled
-on the shore; Baalbec is a ruin; Palmy
ra is buried in a desert; Nineveh and
Babylon have disappeared from the Tir
.gris and . Euphrates. Damascus remains
what it was before the days of Abraham
—a centre of trade and travel—au island
•of verdure in the desert—"a presidential
•capital," with martial and sacred associa
.tions ettending through thirty centuries.
It was near Damascus that isaul of Tar.
EMS B&W the light above the brightness of
the sun; the street which is called Strait,
In which it was said "he prayed," still
ama, through the city. The caravan
comes and goes as it did a thousand years
ago. ' there is still the sheik, the ass and the
water wheel; the merchants of the Eu
phrates and the Mediterranean still "loc.
•cupy" these "with the multitude of their
-wares." The city whigh Mabomet sur
veyed from a neighboring height, and was
afraid to enter "because it was given to
man tnhave - but one paradise; and for his
part he was resolved not to have it in this
world," is today what Julian called the
"eye of the 'East," as it was in the time
•of Isaiah l•the head of Syria."
From Damascus came the damson, our
blue plums, and the delicious apricot of
Portugal, alled damase.o, damask,. our
beautiful fabric of cotton and silk, with
vines and flowers raised upon a smooth,
bright ground; the damask rose, intro
.ducecl into Elitism), in the time of Henry
VIII., the Damascus blade, so famous the
world over for its keen edge and wonder
ful elasticity, the secret of whose manu
facture was lost when Tamerlane carried
off the artist into Persia; and that beau.
tiful art of inlaying wood and steel with
silver and gold, a kind of mosaic en
graving and sculptural united, called
damaskening, with which boxes, buLeaus,
swords and guns are ornamented. It is
still a city offlowers and bright waters;
the streams of Lebanon and the "silk of
gold" still mormur and, sparkle in the
wilderness of the S)rian gardens.
The New Ten. Dollar Counterfeit.
New developments are being made
.daily concerning tae new spurious ten
dollar greenback, specimens of which
come to the United States Treasurer's of
fice every. tay. When the first series
was received, General Spinner, on exam
"inationcemb to the' conclusion -that they
had been put oat as a blind for future
operations. Although very skilfully ex
-ecuted, they presented so many defects
that an experienced person could detect
them readily, Thus the public were no
tified of dots opposite the figures "ten"
on each end of the note, the lack of dig-
Ainct rows of feathers in the left
_wing of
the eagle; the•want of a period after the
letter in Spinner's name, and vari
ous other omissions. Two specimens re
ceived to•day bear witnesd that they are
a new,issue, for all the defects above re
ferred to have been - lee:toyed, and the
general appearance of the note is so ex
actly like the genuine that italmost defies
detection by professional experts-1

Central to Harrisburg, and the other via
the Camden and Amboy to Philadelphia,
which carry passengers, without change
of cars, to Omaha, Nebraska, a distance
of about sixteen hundred miles. This
stoperidons enterprise is to be followed
shortly by improvedfamily cars,eguipped
with furniture, kitchens, fkc., for
the accommodation of passengers, and
will start. at Philadelphia and New York
direct for Sacramento, without change,
a distance of over thirty-three hundred

sulting in the drowning of a woman and
child, and the narrow escape of two men.
It seems that Stephen Stone. his wife and
child, and a man named. Burns, had gone
down the river a piece in a skiff to visit
some friends. As they were returning,
between four and five o'clock, and when
they were about going round the bow of
the steamboat Hunter, lying at Vanport,
the skiff was accidentally upset • by Mr.
Burns, and the occupants thrown into the
water. The employes of the steamer
Hunter, attracted by the odes of those in
the water, ran to their assistance and suc
ceeded in saving Mr. Burns and Mr.
Stone. By this time the woman had
arose to the surface of the water and she
called to her husband 'to save her.
Mr. Stone immediately ran along the
guards of the boat to where his wife was,
but he struck his head against a staunch
ion, and was knocked - down almost in
sensible. His wife appealed to him again
to save her or the child, but the , husband
answered that hecould not swim, and
ere he had recovered from the shock pro-
duced by the collision with the staunch.
ion the loved ones had both sank for the
last time. When - she begged he would
save the child, she held the little :thing
above the surface of the water, but only
for an instant. however, and both sank
from eight. •The'babe was only,two years
of age. Its body_ wag vecovered on
Mondarmotning, - lnit the, body of Mrs.
Stone had not been:rec o vered at last ac

COTTON.—WhiIe India, Egypt and
other countries are using every endeavor
to promote the growth of cotton, it may
not be uninteresting to compare the ad
vantages enjoyed by the United States
over its conipetitors. The Southern
States, it is asserted, have an unrivaled
soil and ellniate for the production of cot
ton, while the mode& of transportation to
market, both by river and rail, are cheap
and rapid. By an estimate made in 1852.
the cotton crop amounted. to -3,150,000
pounds, and the number of hands em
ployed was '787,500, and the number of
acres cultivated was 6,800,000. The
number of acres adapted to , cotton culti
vation but not employed in that branch
of agriculture, was 89,200,000; and the
additional hands required were 4,900,000.
Hence, merely by , comparing the acres,
it appears that the cotton crop of the
United States may be increased•to 20,-
000,000 pounds.
Ds. LrnatOSTONE.—Hr. H. A. Church
hill, C. B.,British Consul and political
agent to anzibar, speaks with confidence
as to the safetY of Dr. Livingstone,. from
whom he has had letters of a date more
recently than that of his reported murder.
It is Mr. Churchhill's opinion that Dr.
Livingstone, having heard of the dis
covery of the northern portion of Lake
Albert Nyanza by Sir S. Baker, has di
rected his route in search of the southern
boundary of that lake and that In, the
course of a few months it is probable that
further news will be heard from Dr.
Livingstone hiinself.—London ifedieal

MADAME PAREPA-ROM has organized
her English , opera troupe for the coming

tone, Mr. A. Lawrence; basso, Mr. S.
Campbell, tenor!, Mr. Castle and Mr.
Nordblom, and buffo, Mr. Seguin.
Messrs. Carl Rosa and A. Rieff will act
as conductors. Mr. De Vivo will be
connected with the troupe. Miss Rich=

TEE Jefferson (Wig") Banner says
that a German woman, just from the old
country, with her husband and family,
had a child born 'at Baltimore while on
their way, and as neither she nor the child
was in good health, and the doctor thought
the latter could not live, after consulta
tion between him and the parents, at Jef
ferson, it.was decided that, as the child
could not live, the best plan would be to
administer poison and put the little suf
ferer out of the way at once. The phy
stolen administered the dose, and in a few
minutes the child was a corpse.
A FEw weeks since, Mr. Thomas Tyre,
residing near Stanfield, Clinton County,
Missouri, killed a rattlesnake nearly eight
feet long, having twenty rattles. Re
cently he was cradling wheat, tvben he
discovered a large rattlesnake coiled up
at his feet. Having nothing but his
cradle with which to dispatch the reptile,
he caught . It on the point of the blade
toward himself suddenly, expecting to
cut it in two, but instead he threw the
snake against his breast. He was terribly
frightened but killed his sztakesidp.
MIICILAGE.--Ifia stated Abat the thick,
itough sap found in large quantities in the
leaves of New Zealand flax may be con
verted into a gum for sealing envelopes
.which, when dry, unites the surfaces of
paper so thoroughly that no process of
steaming or soaking will permit them to
be separated again. For 'this reason It is
now being used in. large quantities in
England, in the preparation of what are
called "safety envelopes."
AR OLD fisherman 'aroma the Indian
apolis Mirror that bass "bite ferociously
and freely just befme, daring and for a
few hours after a total or partial eclipse
of the sun. Then they suspend for six
weeks. He does not pretend to account
for this, but vouches fora it as being
fact." Boys addicted to fishing must
keep ont of the way of, the bass next Sat
urday, if they don't want -to be "bitten'

SOME of the "Scotch•litsh”, convicts in
an Irish prison have petitioried the Chap
lain not to use hymns in worship, but the
Psalms of David, as the iormer are not
inspired. They have finally been per
suaded to yield their preferences. If the
conylets,bia shciWn the same reverence
for inspired writing 'before their incar
ceration that:they now show, they would
have saved themselves much trouble.
