occurred at Memphis, Tenn. An Irish
woman, known as Big Mary, the kce-
per of a bording house, is living with
her se0enth husband. Three Of her
former husbands and a son having
met their death in her gloomy abode,
and her other three husbands died by
violence. The other night the neph.
.ewof this singular woman was mysteri-
ously murdered in the same house,
where his remains were found by the
police, surrounded by some twenty of
the inmates on their knees, praying
tor the repose of his soul. The case
is still involved in mystery.

Within a few minutes, therefore, of
their entry, all the other boys who slept
in No. a. had come up. The little fel-
lows went quietly to their own beds, and

overwhelmed with the novelty OF his pos

with strange boys had clearly never cross

as it was strange TO him lie could

like said Tom, starting, that is your

from your bed. You will have to go
down for more water in the morning if
you use it all, and on he went with his
talk, while Arthur stole timidly from be
tween the beds out TO his wash stand, and
began his ablutions, thereby drawing
for moment on himself The attention of
the room.
On went the talk and laughter. Ar
thur finished his washing and undress-
ing, and put on his night gown. He then
looked around more nervously than ever.
Two or three of The little boys were al
ready in bed, sitting up with their knees.
The light burned clear, the noise went on.
1t was trying moment for the poor lit
lie lonely boy; however, this time he did
not ask Tom what he might or might no;
do, but dropped on his knees by his bed
side, as he had done every day from his
childhood, to open his heart to him who
heareth the cry and bearelh the SORROWS
of the tender child, and the strong man in
agony.
Tom was sitting at the bottom of
the bed unlacing his boots. so that his
back was towards Arthur; and he did net
see what had happened, and looked up in
wonder at the sudden silence. Then
two or three boys laughed and sneered,
and big brutal fellow, who was stand
ing in the middle of the room, picked up
slipper and SHE'D it at the kneeling boy,
calling him sniyeling shaver. Then
Tom saw the whole, and the next mo-
ment the boot he had pulled off few

had just time to throw dp his arm and
catch it on his elbow 'Confound You,
Brown, what is that for?' Roared he,

CLAY EATERS.

What will the reader say on hearing
that in many parts Of the world even clay
is a respectable and respected food?-
Travellers, who see strange things, are
very positive in their assertions on this
head. Humbolt, a man whose word
Justly carries with it European authori.
ty, confirms the statement of Gumilla,
that the Ouomacs of South America,
during the periods of the floods subsist
entirely on fat and forruginous clay,
of which each man eats pound or more.
Spix and Martuis declare that the Indians
of The Amazon eat kind of loan, even
when other food is abundant. Molina
says the Peruvians frequently eat a
sweet-smeling clay; and Ehrenberg has
analysed the edible clay sold in the Mar
kets of Bolivia, which he finds 10 be a
mixture Of tale and mica. The inhabi-
trnts of Guiana mingle clay with their
bread; and the negroes of Jamaica are
said to eat earth when other food is def
cient.
According 10 LabilIardiere, the inhabi
tants of New Caledonia appease theil
hunger with white friable earth, saiC
by Vanquelin obe composed Of magnesia
silica, oxide Of iron, and chalk. To con
clude this list we must add Siam, Siberia

I'M GROWING OLD.
BY JOHN G. SAKE.

Ny days pass pleasantly away,
Ny nights are blessed with sweetest sleep;
I feel no symptoms of decay,
have no cause to moan or weep;
My foes are impstent and shy,
Ny friends are neither shy nor cold, ID
And yet, OF late, often sigh
I'm growing old
My. growing talk of olden times,
My growing thirst for early news,
Ny growing apathy to rhymes,
My growing love for easy shoes,
My growing hate of crowds and noise,
My growing fear of taking cold,
All tell me, in the Plainest voice
I'm growing oldl
I'm growing fonder of my staff,
I'm growing DINNER in the eyes.
I'm growing fainter in my laugh,
I'm growing deeper in my sighs,
I'm growing careless of my dress,
I'm growing frugal of my gold,
I'm growing wise, I'm growing-yes-
I'm growing old
I feelit in my changing taste,
i see it in my changing hair,
Isee it in my growing waist,
Isee it in my growing heir.
A thousand hints proclaim the truth,
As plain as truth was ever told,
That even in my vaunted youth,
I'm growing old
All me, my very laurels brJ athe
The tale to my reluctant cars;
And every boon the hours bequeath
But makes me debtor to the years;
Zen fattery's honied words declare
The secret she would fain withhold,
And tells me iu How young you are!''
I'm growing old!
Thanks for the years whose rapid flight
My sOmbre muse too sadly sings;
Thanks for the CLEANS of golden light
That tint the darkness of their wings;
The light that beams from out the sky,
Those heavenly mansions to unfold;
Where all are blest, and none may sigh,
''I'm growing olil"

telegraph lines, We give a summary of
the existing lines in the world:

Total Length of Telegraph Lines, $50
The number Of messages passing over
all lines in the United States, is estimat
ed at about 4.OOO.OOO per annum.
Until the year 1850 the submarine
cable was practically unknown. In this
year the first. submarine cable was laid
from Dover. England, to Calais, France.
The cable was twenty-four miles long.
and has since been in operation, with
one interruption, with complete success.
Since that period the following sub
marine lines have been laid and are now
in operation:

Taking the security of submarine ca
bles when properly laid, into account,
they are preferable on long routes to the
ordinary line, except when through a
country particularly favorable. The cost
is greater, but not beyond the limit of
good dividends. 1t is estimated that a
telegraph could be put round the world
at cost in round numbers OF FIVE hun
dred dollars mile, or twelve and half
millions of dollars for the whole; Which
is about one-third of the cost of the Erie
Railroad. Ii is therefore obvious that
the Atlantic cable will be ere long but
one division of the electric band that
shall grid the globe.

EFFECT OF DRESS UPON PERSONAL AP.
PEARANcE.-The fashion of the form of
dress is frequently followed without
any regard to the propriety to its adoP-
ton; but this is quite contrary to good
taste. Nothing can look much more ab'
surd than short, stout figure adorned
with a superfuity of fOunces and trim
ings; yet the power of fashion forces such
exhibitions into continual notice. But
even when fashion has decreed that the
flounces and trimmings shall be worn,
such a fguie need not be made ridicu-
kus, the trimmings, in sucha case, should
be placed as low as possible, and the
dress be made very long as convenient,
and made to fit tight; if the dress then
hangs in graceful folds, it will add much
to the appearance of length. The ar
rangements of the upper part OF the per-
son can also be made to add 10, or d.
minish, the hight. Much trimming about
the neck of short, stout persoa, must
make her look shorter-hei object should
be to elongate the appearance of the
neck. The hair, also, offers another
means of apparently increasing the stat
ure. but care must be taken not to raise
the head dress disproportiOnately, as this
would diminish the effect intended to be
produced; i. should be elevated IN some
measure, and, at the same time, dimin-
ished as much in breadth as will be con-
sistent with the features.
