A VENERABLE PAPER.

Mr.. Charles Cist, one of the most celebrat-
ed antiquarians of the West, recently sub,
mitted for examination to Cincinnati
editor an original copy Of the Philadelphia
Gazette, for January, f75O, which paper was
then conducted by Benjamin Franklin. 1t
is nearly one hundred and ten years old,
but is sill egible sheet. 1t is not a little
remarkable that fragile newspaper sheet
should have bid defiance to the tooth of time
for 50 long period. In appearance it is a
curiosity. Its dimensions are about eight
by ten The news and reading matter
which it contains could all be put into less
than one column Of the Enquirer. II hal
not single line Of editorial. lts latest for
eign news was about three or four months
old Its domestic news principally related
to the Indians. Among its advertisements
were several notices Of the sale of negroes in
Pennsylvania. The progress Of the news
paper art is we'll illustrated by comparing
this sheet with those issued in our large cities
at the present day.

HOW To KEEP THE BABY QUIET

Saws Fanv Fern: See that the mother has
a contented mind. That's the best recipe |
know Of Always meet her with the smile
which the immortal Guide to Wives" recon-
mends them, under mountain loads Of per
plexity and provocation. to keep on hand for
their husbands. Don't imagine because home
looks cosy and comfortable. when you return
TO II at night, that it is well either for the
baby's sake, or it's mothers, that you should
never take the latter out Of it for relaxation
and fresh air. Oh, if you but knew how 4
woman loves n man for occasionally thinking
of these little things; little toyou, great to us
know it is less trouble, if yourpurse is well
lined, TO step into amilliner' and order home
a new bonnet, which so many wives have
wanted to throw ont of the window, for very
bitterness of spirit, had they dared. A bon
net. which your ostrich husband fancies will
cover all his coniugal selfshness, and sins of
omission and commission. He had rather
give her this than draw the boots on his slip
pered feet after tea, and take the weary wife
and mother out for the fresh air. and then he
wonders why "the baby worries" and keeps
both awake all night, and why it's mothers
eyes looks so rayless, and she heaves that lit
tie sigh when he sits down TO read his news
paper, and then settles down to the comforta
BILE conclusion that, latter all, there is no un-
derstanding women" and reads on. Some
times SAYS "Ah," or "Oh, or "by Joye,' but
nobody but himself knows whether steam

made mince meat of by a railroad accident.

butor," or the tail of the comet has stciSLed
through the milky way. lie is too lazy even
to talk about it.
Now. "bonnets" don't cure the heart-ache;
and all the rings and bracelets you could toss
into woman's lap, Il speak of a true wo-
man, are not worth one clasp of your arms
round her neck, when you come home from
place of business. We don't want forever to
take it for granted you love US. Weare demon.

times; (heavens! how you stepped round then!)

YOUR coat and hat in the hall, to Sit down in
the parlor and cross your legs, without ever
