NOW LIVING.

n tDbiHpU'Hit safH VIZ oVY IS now
living who will be President Of the
Republic ia 1900. What bis name is,
or where he resides, he does not stop
to inform ne. lie may at this mo
ment be gathering pumpkins in Ore
gon, or peddllng pop corn around Troy
Daniel Webster once made "a new
suit Of satinet" by selling catfish at a
shilling string. Wherever he may
be, all unconscious Of his high destiny,
he feels that divinity that stirs within
him, and grasps his book, thirstipg for
knowledge. His parents, as they an
swer his endless inquiries, rejoice at his
developing intellect, yet little dream
that his will be a great name among
men, known vile as the world.
The boy is (noO now living who
viii be President Of the Republic in
A. D 1000 The parents who shall
heget him and nurse his infant mind
in the ways Of manhood; are not (yeD
themselves bego'ten /! Curious thought!
One hundred and fifty years hence, we
cannot say but what tho very iron pen
with which we now write. shall have
rusted and gone to dust that dust
converted to iron again and that iron
used to make dagger for some Iii
liPutian' great man, to grid on his
lons, and 60 into battle to kill other
Lilliputian great men. Think Of it,
you who delight to speculate The
very inoaensive steel now at our fin
gers point, may two thousand years be
at the point of tue dagger, wherewiIh
some ambitions Caesar in the Ropub-
lie, shall be stabbed to the heart, at
the foot Of another Pompey' statue, in
the Senate house. Alack the day
We canuot say We bcqueath to pos
terlty anything except the little glim-
mering light Of truth we have, which
Is just sufficient TO lead them astray.-
In two thousand years, the very cloud
capped mountains of to-day, will be
kissing the dust. and some antiquarian
may dig up at the foot Of the old Goth
ic Capitol, Powers statue of tho Fa-
Their of his Country, Then it may be
taken for the architect of the building
wherein it stands; or the Governor.
under whose eyentful administration
the dome Of the building was finished
and capped with very fishy looking
weathor-cock. Come, you man, who
speculates so learnodly about Presi.
ident in the year Of our Lord 1900,
tell us what it is; now wearing the
form Of organized life, that shall be
two thousand years hence What
wreck shall float down the stream of
time SO far without sinking into obliv-
ion

CHILDREN STEALING IN New YoRK.
It may surprise many of our readers to
learn that from thirty to forty children
are stolen every year in New York
from their parents, and never heard of
more Yet such is the fact. In our
advertising columns to-day will be
found one of these cases, and curious
one it is. The sister Of Mr.. James
McGaugh brings her child to her bro
TIERS, in Centre street, to spend the
day with him. In the evening she
dressed the child to go home, but
while her back was turned the child
ran out Of the door and into the street.
The mother MISE the child and went
after it Immediately, but though two
days had passed, up to last night no
child had been found, though the Aims
House and every Station House in the
city bad been searched to find it. On
the 10th of this month, boy five
years old, named John Joyce, was
lost, but tho brother has not yet sue
ceeded in finding him; and at the
Cqiefs Office, in the Park, will be heard
many similar stories The child is
lost, search is made by the parents;
days, weeks, months pass, but tidings
of their little ones are never heard. At
last the search is given over, and the
matter is forgotten until similar ca
lamity brings anguish into anothr fam
lily. The mystery is, what is done
with the children II may be that
they are brought up as thievs, or per-
haps sold to some religious sect that
proselyte in this way. Something
ought to be done to preserve the chill
dren and save parents the anguish Of
losing them. ". Y. Tribune.
Men want restraining as well as pro-
polling power. The good snip is pro-
vided with anchors as we'll as sails.

FRosr-No MIsrARB.--On Thurs
day night last, October The 10th inst,
there was frost here, and no mistake.
It was our pleasure TO be up, until
grey dawn of another Friday, showed
its face iu the East, and we can testl-
fy to the fact with a merry host Of
other witnesses all up together, to OBJ
serve the contamination of one of
those pleasing little events properly
acknowledged to be the most interest

we should 90 to work to find the best

crowd and become popular at once. =
Suppose the order were reversed
whilst the choir twill please sing Hymn

Hymn Book, "and instead of the silver
plate, or the bag being poked into a

Wardens and Deacons distribute this

become popular institution at once ?
We think SO, and instead of half the
congregation going to sleep--as is not
unfrequently the case, i'll some of the
Churches, we wot Of, not hundred
miles distant-would not every man
keep his eyes open SO as not to let the
Deacon pass him by? We think SO.
And we think, also that parents would
not have to nudge their children as
they sometimes do, to keep their eyes
open, if the half price" were allowed
them to spend for sugar-plums and
kisses at Musselman's.

New ORLEANs.-The names of g.

various cemeteries of the city, for the
week ending on the 9Th inst, was 100.
This, out Of a population Of 10000.
