A EoundIing Reclaimed.

Some six or seven years ago, a male child
was left on the door step Of house in this
town. The fouadling was taken to the poor
house and was properly cared for and raised
no tidings Of its origin ever having come to
light. The child is now bright boy Of sew
en- years, and great favorite in the family of
the Superintendent Of the Infrmary.
On Monday last, q lady-like woman landed
At our depot, who came in search Of this boy.
After some difficulty, she found the house
where the child had boen left, and upon inquir-
ing. found, to her great joy, that the child was
still living. and had been properly cared for.
She took the proper steps to reclaim the child,
purchased the necessary articles Of clothing
for II, and with feelings, such a. only mother
can appreciate, took the boy to her home in
st. Louis. aa
1t seems that the erring mother, after aband-
oning her child, had reformed, married well,
and now, after the lapse OF some seven years,
with the consent Of her husband (who was
made acquainted with al. the circumstances
Of the case, before she married him) she comes
to find and reclaim her child. During the pro-
ceedings she was deeply agitated, making q
clean breast Of the whole matter to the lady,
At whose door the founding was left, leaving
no doubt in her miHd Of the entire truthfalness
Of her strange and interesting narrative. Sure

tanner Of wild animals aud Snowman, aud that

EYnMaAI

From the Boston Courier.
IL the Moon inhabitedf-Rece
Discovery by the Astronomer
Hansel.
II has long been known that the moon re-
wolves on lis axis in the same time In which it
revolves round the earth, and that il consequent
ly always presents nearly the same side to-
wards the earth, while the other side is never
seen from our globe. No bodies Of water nsr
clouds can be seen on the moon by the aid Of
the most powerful telescope, nor is the appa-
rent direction Of stars close to its edge changed
BY refracfion, as would be the case il an at
mosphere enveloped the moon. Hence it has
been inferred by Whewell, the reputed author
Of late work entitled I" OF Plurality Of
Worlds" that the moon has no atmosphere or
water, and, consequently, no Inhabitants.
This inference il shown to be inconclusive
BY recent discovery Of the astronomer Han
sci, whose study Of the moons motion, contin-
ned for many years, has established the fact
that the centre Of gravity Of the moon, instead
Of being like that Of earth, at the centre Of
figure, is beyond that centre, and farther from
the side next to the earth than it Is from the
other side by seventy-four miles. The nearer
side Of the moon, therefore, is vast, expand.
ed protuberance or mountain, seventy-four
miles high and any fluid, whether air or wa
ter, would Aow downwards from the nearer to
the farther side Of the moon, where, Cor aught
we know, Intelligent living beings may exist.
The nearer side of the moon cannot be inhab-
tied, at least by beings to whose existence air
and water are essential, As is the case with all
terrestrial animals.
The late celebrated mathematician, Gauss,
proposed as means Of settling the question,
whether the moon is inhabited, that huge
monument should be erected on the steppes of
Siberia, as signal to the inhabitants Of the
moon, in the hope that they might be induced
to erect similar signal 70 apprise US Of their
existence. The discovery Of Hansel shows
that such an experiment could be attended
with no success, inasmuch as the inhabitants
Of the moon, if there are any, being on the far
ther side, could never see q monument on the
earth.
It may not be uninteresting to add, that it
has been discovered, within a few years, by
means Of long continued, hourly observations
with the barometer, that the moon exer.s an
appreciable influence on the pressure Of the
atmosphere: and also by means Of long-con-
tinued magnetic observations, that il exerts an
influence on the declinarion of the magnetic
needle.

Death of Miss ''., believed to
be f1,se Famous Miss COutts, of
Mario Men,oCy-Thrillinx Ro-
- AnaMce Of Real r4ISe.

We here present our readers romance full
ofpoefry and tenderness, which has just come
to its end in a very tragical manner. ybe ha-
Paris, viii no doubt remember an English
girl. still young ant pretty, whose regular fea-
lures, expressive countenauce, and physiogno-
my full of melancholy aud tenderness, would
all have been extremely charming had il not
been for the extraordinary ana dca dly pxse-
ness which distinguished her. Her paleness
was, in fact, Of such q strange character, that
this lady might have been taken Cor the corpse
.of'a departed bride. This young lady, pos
s~ased OF immense riches, and always dressed
with exquisite taste and elegance, generally
occupied the same box a. the opera. and sat
alone, always Ia the sase place, on front
,eat &, the boxes, in the tier Of boxes jast un-
dcrneaththe Emperor's lnge. This lady has
just met with :,er death at Paris, in consequence
ofa horrible accident, which we regret to
say has become Of very frequent occurrence
within the past few years. The following are
the Circumstances OF this melancholy affair /:
The lady m question had aome years conceived
a violent passion for Mario, the tenor singer.
Her love, though purely platonic love, was
not the less passionate nor persevering. 1t
originated ss follows: One night she saw in q
s,rram handsome young man who appeared
before her. As love only attacks those
who are amerous and disposed 20 lsve, Miss
:, as a matter Of course, and in obedience
TO the dictates Of her conscience, fell im.edi.
~ately in love with this image OF which she had
dreamed. On awakening next morning, the
image Of the handsome young man whom she
had seen in her dream was necessarily before
;her eyes. Il sts
She contemplated with ecstacy the imagin-
.ary figure, she conversed with itwithost epa-
ing her mouth to give utterapce to any words,
she addressed to its illusions Of the utmost el.
.oquence which were stamped with marks Of
wit and distinguished by sentiments flowing
from an, ardent imagination and sensitive
hssrt She, in fact, 50 often gave complete
reality to this vision Of dream that she was
fully pursaaded that what she saw was sort
Of heavenly advertisement 70 her, and that the
identical being whom she had seen in her
dream really existed and would some time or
other be found BY her. So, indeed, it turned
out; Tor one day at London, Al the Opera House
among the performers, she discovered in the
tenor singer, Mario, the very person whom,
asa visionary image, she had seen in her dream.
It was him, himself, and no mistake. II was

loved, and whom she saw every night in her
dream. 81

Delhi, India.

This famous city Is now in state Of rebel
lion against the British rulers Of the district.
Itlies on the river Juma, and is not quite %
old q place a. Boston, a. it was founded BY
Shah Jehan, in 1881. He first built the city
and then peopled it, by word Of commsnd.-
When Nadir Shah invaded India in 1889, he
defeated the Mogul army at the battle Of Ker-
maui, and Delhi capitulated; but the citizens
proving rebellious, the whole persian army
was let loose upon them, Nadir saying: ..Les
them kill, ravish and destroy; and wo be to
them II they spare either age or sexw The
sack lasted FOR Sax hours; and Is supposed that
leo COO Of the inhabitants lost their lives, many
Of them falling by their own hands, after slay.
my all the members Of their families, to
avoid pollution. The destruction Of property
was immense. Nadir is reported to have ia
ken from India an amount Of property valued
At five hundred millions Of dollars. In I756
the city was again plundered, and still again in
175s. The British first entered Delhi in 1903
In 1852, the Palace Of Delhi was formally made
over to the British government. The ac-
knowledged dependency of the Moguls on the
English dates from 1903, and for more than
half century they have been British pension
ers, though they have nominally hada govern
ment Of their own. In 1S46 Delhi contained
i39. .977 inhabitants, divided as follows: Hin
docs, 1850; Mahometans, q, ,12O; Christians.
327. This is not fourth of its former power,
In the time of its greatest glory, it must have
been one Of the most magnificent cities in the
world. The old city Of Delhi has notklrg but
ruins to mark the place Of its existenee.-
These ruins extend for thirty miles along the
banks Of the Jumna. II the lIindoo chroni.
cles are to believed, the old city was founded
more than three thousand years before the
commencement Of our era, when Troy was :
Aourishing State, when Egyptian Thebes was
in all its glory, and when centuries were yet
to slapse before Carthage or Rome were to
have an existence. The new Delhi, at the
last accounts, was in possession Of some native
soldiers, who had rised in rebellion to British
rule.
