A CAUTION TO MoTMERs.-It is q
very common thing to see mothers and
servant girls pushing along over the
sidewalks the little carriages in which
they are giving infants an airing on
pleasant days. The practice is very
dangerous one, and is liable to do great
and permanent injury to the child.
We observe also that carriages arc now
SO constructed that they may he pushed
instead Of drawn. The position of a
child riding backward instead Of for
ward is an unnatural one, and directly
affects the brain. Some grown persons,
even, cannot ride backward in q rail.
road car without experiencing sense
Of faintness, and to expect child to do
what strong adult cannot, is unreas-
enable, to say the least. It is believed
by medical writer's that infants have
died from disease produced by being
ridden backwards.

THE PLANS OF THE r REBELs-THEY Mediate
THE DESTRUCTION OF WASHINGTON We find
the following statement in the Louisville Jour
nal son Saturday gentleman called on US,
who, on account of i'll health, was recently a
soiourner in Florida, and who has just come
through Georgia, South Carolina, Alabama
and Mississippi. He says that the people of
the rest of the country have no conception of
the rush which the people Of all those States
have for some days pas; been making and are
now making for Richmond, the headquarters
of the Southern army, destined for the con-
quest of Washington city and the District of
Columbia. He says that in all his journey he
did not see a solitary railroad train going in
the direction of Richmond that was not loaded
with troops and mu nitions. From Charleston
alone, during the two days he was there fonr
thousand armed men started for the Virginia
rendezvous. He states that these general
and rapid movements are not reported in the
papers of the Confederate States. but he has
no doubt that the army at Richmond will
prove tremendous in its strength and numbers.
He tells us that all the men he met with. mill
tary officers and others, spoke of the conquest
of W ashington a settled thing-iust as we'll
settled as if already mplished-and that
the ayowed termination is not to preserve
the public buildings of the Capital for the use
of the Southern Confederacy, but to demolish
them utterly, not leaving one stone upon l.
nother.'

ZoUAyE FIREMEN.-Early on the morning of
the 9Th, large building next to Wizards ho-
tel Washngton was discovered to be on fire.
Many of the New York Zouaves rushed from
their quarters at the Capitol, and after break
ing open an engine honse, hurried to the scene
of conHagration, with the apparatus. rendering
efficient service and saving the hotel from de-
structiOn. They performed various acts of da
ring, pulling down the walls. etc., in the pres
ence of thousands of admiring spectators.
They failed not TO salute the flag over the ho-
tel, and heartily. greeted Major Anderson,
whose chamber was adjacent To the burning
building, and who appeared at the window,
witnessing the activity and daring of the gal
liant Zouayes

STEEL CANNoN.-The London Engineer
states that two new guns have just been COM
pleted for the British government by the
Mersey Steel Company. They are made of
puddled steel, consolidated under the huge
steam hammer. Their length is 81 feet, weight
tuns, cwt Their bore is only 81 inches,
and yet they are intended tor 100 lbs. Shot,
of the conical cylindrical form. Puddled steel
appears to us to be the most suitable of metals
for making strong cannon. 1t is capable OF
being run almost like cast iron I; then il may
be hammered to consolidate its PARTICLES, thus
imparting to it the duplicate quality OF cast
and wrought steel, so as to resist both tensile
and crushing force in a superior manner.

AN EXTRAORDINARY OH WELL.-The oil
we'll on Oil Greek, at which the explosion took
place, is the most extraordinary on record.
Notwithstanding that some two thousand bar
rels escaped during the fire, it is now throwing
out oil at the rate of twenty barrels an hour.
From Saturday afternoon to Thursday morning
seventeen hundred barrels had been filed, and
the vats containing one hundred barrels, were
flowing over. The gas, says the Mercer Dis
patch, is yet on fire, but the flame is confined
to the chamber of the well by mound of wet
clay thrown over its mouth. A pipe is driven
through this clay to the mouth OF the we'll
and through this the oil flows to the reservoir
form which the barrels are flied.

fcers and men on duty was great success.
Every body was there. The marine band play
ed splendidly. The President looked we'll.
The Madame looked better, and more Joyons,

vened before at the Presidential mansion.
For the benefit OF the fair sex, ! Will state
that MIS- Lincoln wore very elegant blue
silk, richly embroidered, and with long
train; also point lace cape, aud a full set OF
pearl ornaments, in which she well sustained
the dignity of her station while the old lady
of her household, Mrs. Grimsley, wore blue
watered silk, with lace cape and appropriate
trimmings. The officers and all were delight
ed with their reception.
