AGectiDg incident.

The Cincinnati Commercial publishes
the following affecting incident. 1t saws
A small lad not over ten years of age.
knocked at the office door of the Jail,
and asked permission of Mr.. Mclean 10
visit his father who was confined within.
His form was slight and fragile, and but
lily defended from the cold by a few
scanty rigs. Poverty was depicted in
every feature-his cheeks hollow .and.
wan, as if the very hues of life had for
saken them. The request was. granted,
and passing through the outer entrauee,
he paused before the pondrous grated
door within, and extending his hand thro'
the opening between the iron bars; ad-
dressed one Of the motley group shut up
within as Father" The lad deeply felt
for the parents disgrace, and casting his
eyes downward, remained for length Of
time fixed and as inmovable as a statue
and only aroused by him within asking,
in gruf voice, ''What do you want ?''-
Starting up, but still holding on to the
hand, the lad said in sweet but almost
heart broken accents, Father, Mother S
dead. +" The words acted like charm
the criminal was suddenly transformed 10
a loving husband and father; his head
sank upon his bosom, and he realized ina
moment his degraded situation. Tears
thick and fast-the first, perhaps, for
many year-dowed down his cheek, and
turning about motioned his boy away
Sorrowfully the lad left the iail to wander
back, to keep alone through the night
weary vigil by the side Of his mothers
corpse.

The FreRch and Tobacco.-The French
exceed all other people in the use Of to-
bacco. In 1856 the net revenue to the
government amounted, from this source
alone, to l2l million francs. Each In
habitant consumed that year, on an aver
age, 80 ounces.
The HarperS.-Harper's publishing .es-
tablishment in New York. the largest in
the country, covers half an acre Of ground.
An edition Of Harper's Monthly Maga-
zine alone, consists Of sl60, 900. Few
persons. have any idea how large num-
Der this is rs applied 10 the edition Of a
book. It Is computed ihatif these maga-
zines were to rain down, and one man
should attempt to pick them up, ike
chips, it would take him fortnight to
pick up the copies Of one single number,
supposing him to pick up one every three
seconds, and to work-ten hours a day.
Long Lite7-It is an established fact
in physiology, that long life depends
much upon the original Stamina Of the
constitution. The principle holds rne,
with few exceptions, in the report of up
ward Of 1000 cases. of individuals living
over 100 years. Thus the celebrated
Thomas Parr, living to l52 yeas, had
son who lived to l13 years, a grandson
100, and a great grandson 124 years, and.
Two others to 127 years.

The Earth.--The circumference Of the
earth is 25,020 miles. A railway train,
travelling necessarily night and day, at
the rate of 25 miles an hour, would re-
quire six weeks to 90 round it. a tun,
mel through the earth, from England. to
New Zealand, would be nearly 5000
thousand miles long.
