They turn on my poor HI tie self with a frown, And my death warrant's instantly signed : "This fellow." they cry with contempt, " is ' a clown, And he has an illogical mind." "Little Cold Tittles." She was a tiuy little midget, aud had Mich a starved, pinched, and appealing look that my heurt was touched to tho quick, and I took l:er into the kitchen myself nud told Bridget to give her a good hearty breakfast, and then fill her bucket with some fresh aud wholesome food to take home to her little brothers and sisters, for, my instinct told me she hid spoken the truth when she said : " Please, mum, I'm a poor little girl with four brothors and sinters, all littler 'n me, an' won't you please give mo some oold vlttlcs." Hhe might have been eight years old, though she didn't look to be over six in size, but had a painfully old look about the eyea, end under one of them was a dark birth-mark of a blood-shot appear ance, that looked for all the world as . tlw ugh made by the heartless blow of n dmi ken father. Her clothes were old , but much patched, but not dirty, and there v as some attempt at neatnoss. She had no ".stocking, but on oue foot had a lady's gaiter that was almpst a fit, and nn the other a boy's shoe somewhat too larfte. Hho wore a suu-tounet thai had seen better days, and had a manV necktie pi uned at her throat. .Tho child ale f aveuoualy lit first, am" fur a niiuuto I thought sho eeituinh would choke. Poor thing, she had. no' often had such a feast, and as I watched I tier almost voraciously ttevonr the ueel f-.teak and potatoes Bridget sat before her, I clutched my own little darling Sue to my hroast, and prayed heaven she might never come to such dreadful want. The child was quick of percep tion, intelligent, Jand not ut ull backward, aud alter sho had somewhat appeased her hunger I drew her by degrees to talk about her family, and this is the story I gleaned from her: "You see, miflsus, our father runned off and leaved us, au' mother she's sick nn' can't go out an' wash no more, an so we can't have notion' to eat only what I gits. I has four little brothers an sis ters, all littler 'n me, an' none of 'em is big enough to to go 'thout gettin' loosed but Tommy, an' ho has fits, an' mother she's afraid to havo him go, for one day he had a fit an' failed in a cellar an' broked his collar-bone, an' a man he car ried hiiu home, aud mother cried an' said he would die, an' Tommy ho was cryiSg coz it hurt 6o, an' then a doctor coined an' hurtod hini worsein fixin' it, an' then Tommy cried more, an' so did all of us. One day a nice lady corned to see Tommy, an' the bringed a basket ful of nice vittles, an' he got some medicine for Tommy's fits, an' buyed mo some new shoes, forsit was awful cold then, an' I nearly freozed ray feet when I went to git things to cat. She was awful good to us, an' corned lots o' times, an' alius brought somethin , but oue time she coined an' said good-by to us, an' said she was going to move to Cheeoawgy, an' coulJu't eonio no more to see us, an' then mother cried, an' so did all of us, Then she gived mother some money an' godo away. Tommy cried 'bout her lots o' times but she didn't come to see us no nioro. " My mother says when I was a little tiny girl, wo lived in a big house, with lots 'o rooms, an' purtj things, an' chairs, an' beds to sleep on, an' carpet on the floor with flowers in it, an' a yard to play in with grass, an' chickens, an' pigs' an I had a real doll with eyes, an a dress on, bnt I don't remember 'bout it, an' sometimes I wonder where that doll godo to, an' if the little girl what's got it now won't never give it back to mo no more. One night I dreamed I had my doll, an' it could talk aud creep like little Dickv. and sav. ' da. da,' an' when I woked up it was gone, an' then I cried till I sleeped some more, but it didu't oomo back no more.' When we lived in the big house mother didn't have to K-j to lulls' houses uu' wash un' uous locWyl up ill the mom, cause father worked in a store then, an' fetch ed home money to mother, an' some times ho bringed me an' Tommy candy an' oranges, mother said an' tooked us lots o' times to the park an' one time to tho circus. I was too little then, an I wish I could see the circus now, but they makes little girls pay to go in, an' I never don't have any money, an' if I did I would givo it to mother to buy a white dresH for Dicky. Dicky is cute au' purty, if he .had a white dress. Mother says father didn't drink nasty whisky then, an' he never gitted drunk an' boated us like he used before lie runned away an' leaved us. Mother says he was a good man then au' wored nice clothes, au' had white shirts, an' his face wasn't all red. an' he took us on his lap, an' sometimes he kissed us. I don't see how that could be, but I can't remember 'bout when I was little. Mother says oue time a bad man got father to write somethin' on a piece of paper, an' then another bad man corned an' made us go 'way from our purty house, an' didn't let na take our chairs an' beds. I 'spect that bad man tooked my doll. Oh, he was awful bad, mother says, an 1 bet it was nun. Then lather he gode in a saloon, an' another bad man gived him whisky, un' maked him drunk, an' he corned home, an' sweared an' throwed things at all of us, an' whipped us, an' cnlted mother with a knife, an' then the pl'eece tooked him to jail, an' mother went to boo the man an' cried, an' said father didu't mean to do it, and then the man unlocked the door, an' he corned out an' moiher fetched him home, an' then he cried an' said he wouldn't never do so no more. But when he went back to the saloon tho bod man gived him more whisky an' made him Uruuk jest like t'other time, an' lots o' times after that, an' one day he stepped on Dicky when he was erawlin' an' that's what made his foot crooked. Then the bad man made father drink whisky all the time, an' we got hungry an cried, an mother toon incny anu locked Tommy an' Hatty an' me in the room, an' gode to a woman s house an washed, an' while she was gone Tommy had a lit an' failed on the corner of the stove an maked tho blood come au scared us awful bad, for we thought he was killed, but he gitted well after awhile, an' then mother corned home, an' bringed us some bread, an' it was awful good. And then mother hod to go to houses and wash Tots o' times, an' one time father coined homo after the bad man hod given him whisky, an' we runned down stairs an' out in the street to find mother, but we couhin't.au' Hatty got loosed, an' Tommy and me was loosed once, but we seed Billy HotchkiBS, an' he took us home. But we was afraid to go up stairs for father mignt whip us some more, an' we set down on the side walk and cried till mother corned home, an' then went up stairs to the top o' the house where our home was, an' father wasn't there.au' tho quilt what we sleep ed on was gone, an' mother cried an said father had tooked it to give to the bad man for more whisky, an' then she said, where was Hatty, an' I said she was loosed.an' then she criod some more, on' tooked Tommy an' me an' walked all 'round to find her, bnt we couldn't. An' then mother told the p'leecemans about it, an' they said they would git her. But it got dark, an' they couldn't find her, an' then mother tooked us home, an' we sleeped in Missus Hotehkiss's room, an' mother went by herself to find Hattie. Nex' day the p'leecemans bringed her home, an' we was awful lad, but sho was hurtod on the head, where some bad boys runned after her, an' hitted her with a stone. "Then we sleeped on the floor, coz father tooked the quilt, an' it was so oold we cried, an' it maked us all tired, an' gived Hattie such a bad cough, an' her cheeks was red, an' she said she was hot when it was oh, awful cold, coz the coal was all ' used, an' we didu't have no tire till Tommy an' me got tho blocks, an' the good man buyed us some more coal. Then when we corned home Hattie was cold like ico when I put my hand on her face, an' her eyes was shut like she was godo to sleep, an' she was white like the suow, an' when I said to mother, what made her cry, she said Hattie was gonod oft' an' leaved us too, and the kind lady told us bhe was up in tho sky where Heaven is, an would never git hungry or cold any more, an' when I said she would get loosed some more by herself, she said God would keep her in his houso, coz he liked little girls, an said why couldn't I go there too, an' she said some day if I was good God would take me up there an' give me lots 'o nice things. Then the kind lady gave nattie a nice white dress, an' the man fixed her to bed iu a putty little box, an' then they taked her away, an' we all of us cried She don't come back no more to play with us, only sometimes when I sleeps, an' she is oh, so purty, au' ban every thing nice, an' uh what a nice lila.'o it is up there, and when I tries to go with her I wakes up an' she's gode away again."

Some of these have the face trimming formed exclusively of clair de lune beads laid on in close rows of gimp and dropping fringe. There are less flowers seen as the season ad vances. Iu their place are wavy pinnies, birds, aigrettes, beads and fringes . The latest importations of trimmings for oostly dresses show still richer de signs than the first. They come in large feathery ferns, odd leaves, flowers, palms, arabesques, stars and crescents. All styles of architecture are imitated in the heavy wide passementeries. Balls, acorns and tassels of chenille and satin are introduced in fringe aud other orna ments ; and in other styles are shown all of tho colors fouud in the bouretto and Roumanian fabrics. Braids and gimps for woolen dresses show all manner of arabesques, geometrical designs in squares and diamonds, coral branches and blocks ; these may be used as a head ing to flounces, plaitings or to fringes of a corresponding style. Black laces are beautifully ornameuted with oolored silk embroideries into which are inter woven the rainbow uud clair do lune beads. Guipure and thread laces are still f asbionuble, and will be combined with bands of fur for trimming velvet garments. French lace closely imitat ing Chautilly in design and quality, will be used exclusively for full ruchings and plaitings ; into some of these laces cut jet beads are thickly interwoven. The new black net veils are ornamented with fringes and loops of clair de lune or modore, and cut jet beads. The two styles of veils come iu the mook shape, and in a Bcarf three yards long, which is gracefully laid over the face, then crossed behind and brought forward and tied just below the chin in ,a large bow, j or fastened with a gold lace pin. They are made of plain and embroidered net. Fashion has rarely offered so many inducements for ecomony as this sea sea so mauy pretty inexpensive ways to make up inside aud over costumes, aud so many accompaniments to dress, unit ing beauty to utility. One principle must be understood that it is upon cor rect contrast and harmonious associa tion, and not alone upon the absolute beauty of the colors, that fine effect lependa. Combinations of materials aro still employed in dressmaking the foundation boing composed of a solid colored fabric with a relief of some fancy stuff, such as the Roumanian, Reumelian, and Turkish moss cloths, or ' any fancy material,, such as bourette, French cor duroy, and soft twilled woolen stnffs. The front aud side gores must be of the heavier fabric, and tho train which is set in, in wide plats, in the centre seam of tho back is of the plain material with which the sleeves must correspond. Pip ing, of. some distinctive color, appears in all the long seams, and adds a finish to the collar, cuffs, or wherever piping may be used. This eftect is also seen in the polonaise, which triumphs over all at tempts to put it down, and comes again this season in another shape of exceed ing grace the long-waisted, slender princesse. A Wo inter of Precocity. Christian Hoinecker was born at Lu- beck on the 0th of February, 1721. When only ten mouths old he conld re peat every word that was said to him ; at twelve mouths he knew the principal events iu the Pentateuch by heart ; at two years he learned the historical parts of the Old and New Testaments-; in his third year ho could reply to most ques tions ou universal history aud geography, aud in the same year he learned to speak Latin and French ; in his fourth year he employed himself in the study of religion and tho history of the church, aud he was able not only to repeat what he had road, but also to reason upon it, and ex press his own judgment. The King of Denmark wished to Bee this wonderful child, so ho was taken to Copenhagen, there examined before tho court, and proclaimed to be a wonder. On his re turn home he learned to write, but his constitution being weak he shortly afterward fell ill. He died on the 27th of June, 1725. .1 Fatal iiaa. 1 u volcanic regions springs and wells of carbonic acid gas are not nufrequent, forming part of the geological forma tion, like the springs and wells of petro leum in eertaiu districts or this country.

A Correspondent' Talk With a Farmer Why', Farmer Hold Hark Their Wheat ami Corn Crop. A correspondent of the New York Sun writes to the following effect: This is written in Newell, the northwestern corner of Iowa. It is here that they raise tho great corn, wheat and grass hopper crops of Iowa. For two years the crop has been principally grasshop pers, but this year the prairies are load ed down with wheat and corn. What a change since last year ! Then the farm ers were disheartened, but now they feel rich and ambitious. Tho grasshoppers have all disappeared from the country, leaving no eggs, and every oue is look ing forward to a still bigger acreage next year. As Newell is a type of a hundred towns in Iowa, I will give you their crop status as the farmers give it to me. I met a farmer with a faded suit of clothes, a rauskrat skin hat and a string of plow-points in his hand. " How are tho crops," I asked. "Big, sir; couldn't be better." " But the big crops don't arrive iu New York," I said. " They all waut to know what has become of them." "Want to know what's become of 'em? Why, they're here, sir. Do the fools think we can get our crops to market in sixty days?"' " Why, yes, I should think you could do a good deal at it in sixty days. " Wal, we can't, sir. Why, look here, neighbor, don't you know that we- never shell a kernel of com till next Febru ary? Don't you know that we never ship it till May or June ? We can put a good deal of corn into beef and pork and ship that this winter ; but the corn crop dou't move till next spring and sum mer." How about the wheat crop ?'' " Wal, we'r holdin' it. I hav'n't got mine threshed yet. It's in the stacks. It's only the poor farmers who stop plowing to draw wheat to market in wagons. Smart farmers keep on with their fall plowing and draw their wheat to market when it's good sleighing in tb winter." " Then the wheat crop is herein he country yet ?" " Why, of course aud will be for months. Only just enough going to the market to supply the mills. Then the price dou't suit us, sir. Let's see, they're payin' eighty-five cents for wheat iu Newell to day. I ain't going to sell a bushel of my wheat for less than a dollar." " How much did you raise ?" I asked. " Me and my two boys raised 1(50 acres, sir, and it will run thirty bushels to the acre figger it yourself, sir!" " Four thousand eight hundred bush els $4,830 will pay you well for your Bummer's work ?" I said. " Yes, about $1,200 ft pioee, besides the advance in the land." ' "How much land have you got?" I asked, becoming interested. "Seven hundred and twenty acres now, sir. I've just bought 3(10 acres." " At how much ?" Five dollars an acre, sir.' "Aud what did your first 360 acres cost?" "Seven years ago I homesteaded eighty acres. Tho rest cost mo from $1 to 82 per acre. Now it is all worth $5, and next year it will be worth $10. Why, seven years ago this whole country around Newell was a wild prairie owned by the government. ' Now it is crossed with railroads, and every inch is taken up. Land that will produco thirty bushels of wheat aiu't to be sneezed at, sir!" I find on thorough inquiry here that these facts, which I send for the btmeflt of the Produce Exchange, are true. I. The crops are immense, everywhere iu Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa, and Min nesota. The Illinois com crop surpasses last year's crop by 100,000,000 bushels, and the wheat crop of Iowa, Minnesota, and Wisconsin is 150,000,000 bushels ahead of last year. II. The wheat crop will begin to come to market and continue from now on till spring. Farmers have spent the fall plowing for a larger acreage next year. They have not stopped to thresh their wheat and draw it to market as usual. II I. Only a portion of the corn crop can come to market this winter, and that in the shape of beef and pork. The corn crop proper will not roach New -York until next spring the mass of it with spring navigation. It's only old corn that will oonie to market this winter. IV. I find many rich farmers keep .their coru till July and August the fol lowing season, feed it with clover to cat tle and hogs, thus makiug the same amount of beef aud pork ou a small quantity of com, and at the same time .strike an early market, when pork and beef are always up. V. No sensible furmer rich enough to own stock sells a kernel of corn. lie puts it all into beef aud pork, and ships that. That is, he puts ten pounds of corn into a pound of pork and ships that at the same price that he would pay for shipping one pound of com. Jxntdon eirpaper. Loudon newspapers who keep corre spondents in the field deal with them very liberally. The offices furnish every thing. Each has at'leastxtwo horses, which tho office pays for, and one or more servants. Forbes, correspondent of the yews, receives a clear Balary of 85,000 a year and all his expenses paid. This $5,000 is in the shape of a retainer. He is paid that amount by tho Acu'i to retain his services, to prevent his writ ing for any other journal. When he is actually at work, then he is paid an additional amount, but he would receive the $5,000 were ho.not to do a stroke of work within the twerVe months. Edi torial writers are not an office fixture here as in America, explains an English letter in the Chicago Times. The men who furnish editorials for au English paper may or may not be professional writers that is, writers for newspapers. They may be magazinists, or novel writers, or almost anything else. They occupy somewhat the position of tho mercenary soldier whoso fealty is due to the power which pays him, during the period for which he is employed. Stir pose the Loudon Time wishes to retain the services of Professor Musty Dryas dust for a loader writer. The editor seuds for him, or to him, anuouuees the wish, aud if the professor consents ho is paid a retainer, which varies according to the man employed. The retainer en gages him for the Time, and ho cauriot write for any other daily paper. It does not, however, guarantee him constant employment. He may have been re tained to write on will cases, and he writes only when there is a demand for an article on wills. A journal may have five or fifty men thus retained. Each day the editor decides what he wishes written, assigns the subjects to the prop er men, aud pays them "by the piece." A retaining foe varies according to the quality of the man. Editorials on the Tiiiics are paid for at rates varying from two to five guineas each. Tho sub-editors who have, charge of foreign news, correspondence, local topics, commercial affairs, and the like, receive regular sal aries. An English reporter, who is al most invariably a short-hand writer, gets from $15 to $25 per week. A It i it an ta In South Carolina . The most remarkable iustanca of a geological discovery, revolutionizing a district and enriching a State has oc cur red iu the development of what is kuown as the Ashley river (S. C.) de posits of what seama to be the remains of cartilaginous fish, especially of the shark family, though they also contain numerous bones and teeth of caceaus, or whale-like animals, many of which were larger, or as large, as the whale i fouud in the seas at the present time. From the number of their bones aud teeth exhumed or washed out by the waves of the ocean, they must havo ex isted iu large " shoals," and, together with the enormous sharks of that age, auimals rivaling the whale iu size, must have constituted a vast marine afiny of ravenous " flesh eaters " aud capacious "scavengers" of the Eoceon Ocean. Ships nud stoamers are daily seeking cirgoes from the Ashley, Stouo, Waudo, Askepoo, and other rivers, and the State of South Carolina is now reaping a great harvest. Over $6,000,000 have already been invested by northern capitalists in miaiug aud manufacturing the rocks into rich fertilizers, and many persons who, in 1837, were unbelievers have now their thousands invested iu it. This is a Bimple aud true history of the dis covery and development of the phosphate rocks of South Carolina. The exports for the past year amount to nearly two hundred thousand tons.

A discussion in the convention- of li brarians at London, brought out some curious facts concerning the British Museum, Several speakers advocated the compiling of a complete catalogue of the books in the museum, which, it is estimated, would cost not less than $1,500,000. It would have to contain 3,000,000 title. A quarter of a century would bo taken up in the printing of the catalogue, aud by that time there would be an accumulation of 300,000 to 400,000 new titles. The New Y'ork San says New York contains to-day hard on 1,300,000 inhabi tants. Brooklyn alone contains at this writing a population of 550,000 ; this, added to 1,300,000, would give New York City 1,850,000. If, however, we take in Jersey City and Stateu Island, which clearly belong to this agglomera tion of population, New York, viewed as a metropolis, is tho second largest city" of the civilized world, containing over 2,000,000 inhabitants. Thus Lon don,3, 189,428; New York over 2,000,000, and then Paris with 1,851,702.

A Skillful Equine Operation. Edging around iu front of tho animal the reporter saw that sure enough a tube had boon inserted in tho windpipe mid way between tho head and shoulders, through tho opening of which the horse was iuhaliug aud exhaling oxygeu with all the force and capacity of a black smith's bellows. A little inquiry elicited tho facts from Mr. Woodiu. Tho horse (a flue large black) had formerly been used as a 'bus horse for the Bellows House in Rock Island. Some two months ago the auimal had a violent at tack of epizootuj so severe, indeed, that the larynx, or opening of the wind pipe, had Iiol'u swollen shut, and the korse scorned likely to dio of Buffocation. He was then taken to Matt. Fisher's stables, in Davenport, whore a veterinary surgeon cut the wiudpipa as dosoribed aud inserted a siphon-shaped silver tube alnut six inches in length, through which the auimal obtained his allowance of air. The tube has a thui facing, to which the straps aro attached which keep it in place. The horse does -not suffer the least inconvenience from the arrangement, aud is as full of life as ever. It will bo seen that by this mode of treatment all Htrain is removed from, the obstructed larynx, leaving it iu the bust possible shape for doctoriug. - As sxuf as the swelling subsides aud the natural passages again open, the tube will be removed, tho hole sewed up and the horse is himself agaiu. As we havo said tho horse was used at the Bellows Houso before his sickness, but when Mr. Jarvis, the present proprietor, took charge, he shipped the animal down t his Island Farm, iu exchange for o; that was sound, which accounts for V presence of the horse on onr etre f -.uequently for this item. .' ljirn) Ti'itmne.
