Curious Calculations.

The simple interest of one cent, at
six per cent per annum, from the com
mencement of the Christian era to the
close of the present year, 1866, would
be but the trifing sum of eleven dol
lars, seventeen cents and eight mills :;
but if the same principal, at the same
rate and time, had been allowed to ac-
cumulate at compound interest, it
would require the enormous sum ofS4,
$40, 600, 100000 ofglobes of solid gold,
| each equal to the earth in magnitude,
to pay the interest and if the sum were
equally divided among the inhabitants
of the earth, now estimated to be about
one thousand millions, every man, wo-
man and child would receive S4,64O
golden worlds for an Inheritance.
Were all these globes placed side by
side in direct line it would take Ii CHIT
ming itself, that can girdle the earth in
the wink of an eye, $4,000 years to
travel from end to end And if Par
rott gun were discharged at one extrem-
ity while man was stationed at the
other-light travelling 10000 miles in
q second; the initial velocity of can
non ball being about l, 800 per second :;
and in this case supposed to continue
at the same rate; and found moving
through the atm mosphere l 1,12O feet in a
seoond-he would see the flash after
waiting 10000 years; the ball would
reach him in 1900, 100000, of years
but he would not hear the report till
the end of 1,000,O00,0O0 Of centuries.
Again, if all these masses of gold were
fused into one prodigions ball, having
the sun for its centre, it would reach
out into space, in all directions,
e-thousand seven hundred and thir-
ty millions ofmiles, almost reaching the
orbit of Herschel: and, if the interest
were continued till the end of the pres
ent century, it would entirely fill up the
solar system, and even enoroaeh five
hundred million of miles Of the void
beyond the planet Neptune, whose Or
bit, at the distance of two thousand
eight hundred and fifty millions ofmiles
from the sun, encircles our whole sys
tenn Of worlds.

ton of the space which would be occr1-
pied by the whole population now liv-
ing on the globe if eongregated togeth-
er and as to the vast l1szsisFity,t she dead,
the widest conjectures 4.sge been in
dulged in. Some have been even
doubtful whether such a number Of
human beings could find standing
room on the whole face Of the earth.-~-
Now, taking the present population of
the earth to number one thousand mil
lions, and assuming that the average
population of ts earth from the time
Of Adam till now has been half that
number, and that the generations
of men-have averaged forty years
each, we come to this conclusion that
the smallest county Of New Y York would
afford sitting room for all the men,
women and children now alive on the
earth, and that number Of human be-
ings, equal to all that has ever lived on
the face of the earth, might stand with
in the era of the largest county Of that
State.

DAYS of the week-How Named.

AstyS OE Fuc w Vcek--f1OW NdI1Ous
The days of the week were each sa-
cred to certain deity; Sunday and
Monday to the sun and moon, respect
lively; Tuesday has it's name from
Tuesca, whom the Saxtons supposed
to be supreme ruler; Wednesday,
named after Wooden, the god of war.
Here is an explanation of one of Fall
stafrs questions concerning "honor,"
F." Who hath it? He that died ON q
Wednesday that is, killed IN battle,
in the service of Wooden. Thursday is
from Thor, the god of thunder; Fri
day from Friga, the deity supposed to
preside over trade; and Saturday from
sacter, the god Of liberty. From which
last has descended the custom of OBJ
serving that day as holiday and
which is pretty duly kept by all who
can afford the needful relaxation, with
one remarkable exception, namely,
those who follow the useful art Of
shoe-making. Ii is well known that
they' favor Monday as their day of
recreation, which custom is said to
have had its origin in the time of
Oliver Cromwell. The story is that
one of his generals, named Munday,
committed suicide. The Protector Of
fered reward for the most suitable
epitaph commemorating the death of
his friend. The successful competitor
was worthy son of Crispin, who car
ried off the palm by the following epi-
gram: ~ ~ -r--, es,t
God bless the Lord Protector!
And cursed the worldly pelf; -'
Tuesday shall begin the week, ~ .ar-.t
Since Monday hanged himself. ~

A Delicate Subject.

The Local of the Cleveland Plain
Dealer, makes the following remarks
upon rather delicate subject; delicate,
because it concerns something in which
the ladies take great deal of pride,
but which they don't like to have talk
ed about above whisper We refer
to the ladies' feet The article has
been suggested by observing the very
general fondness with which the men
gaze upon the feet and ankles of the
gentler sex. There are two kinds of
gazers of this character those who
lounge about the street corners and
stairways, and make regular business
of it, and those who are equally rabid
upon the subject, but who don't want
folks to know it. In the latter class,
can be found modest and moral young
men, who never said naughty word,
or did an improper thing; and staid
Pater families, who greedily gaze up
on the pretty prunella, and dainty hose,
when you would never imagine that
they were thinking Of ought but stocks
and government bonds. IF we had a
friend, with an unconquerable taste for
pretty feet and ankles, we would adj
wise him to take a trip to Manilla.-
There the woman go about in short
dresses, without shoes Or stockings,
and the pedal display would be
all that his heart could crave.
To be sure, all Of the Manila
women are not pretty; but we
imagine that enough of them are in
that condition, to make such trip re-
dound to his satisfaction. If he can
not afford to take the Manila trip then
let him become one of the last men
toned gazers. The ladies do not like
to exhibit their feet and ankles to
gangs of loafers, who--theY know
very welf-make it business to watch
for them; but we cannot doubt that
they are more than pleased to make
such an exhibition, to any extent, le-
ultimately. Of course they are, or
they would never wear " fitting hoops, -
and pin up their dresses g to boot; :"
or they would never be so particular
about the covering of their feet, would
never wear such jaunty little high
heeled boots-so high in the ankle,
and with such exquisite little tassels
dangling at the tops, too! Thus it is
perfectly proper, and even loyal" to
watch for pretty feet, and to look at
them as much as you are mind to,
providing you do it in the right way.
1t looks very ridiculously to see a
young wight crafty following couple
of ladies, on ashopping jaunt, with his
eyes so voraciously fastened upon their
CATERS. that he ss stubs his toe, I" every
other step, in his blind career. Every
one on the street knows what the
young wight is doing, and therefore be
appears like a fool. Of course we
would not have young men and other
lovers of the beautiful, jam their hats
over their eyes, the moment that a
gust of wind is about to give them a
delightful series of dissolving views
by no means. Rather let them gaze
upon the object of their delight, in a
manner to lend the impression that
they don't see what they see, any more
than the man in the moon.

To Make Hard SOaD.

Pour four gallons of boiling water
over six pounds of washing soda (sal
soda) and three pounds of unslacked
lime: Stir the mixture well, and let it
settle until 1t is perfectly clear. It is
better to lett stand all night, as it takes
some time for the sediment to SETTLE
When clear, strain the water, put six
pounds of fat with it, and boil for two
hours, stirring it most Of the time. If
1t does not seem thin enough, put
another gallon of water on the grounds,
stir and drain Off, and add as wanted to
the boiling mixture. Its thickness can
be tried by ocoasionly putting a little
on plate to cool. Stir in d handful
of salt just before taking it from the
fire. Have a tub ready soaked, to pre-
vent the soap from sticking pour it in,
and let it settle until solid, when you
will have from the above quantity Of In
gradients about forty pounds of piee

The Shirleysburg Herald says
that about the first of January last,
Joshua Morgan, of Cromwell township,
thrashed a quantity of grain, and threw
the straw on pile in the barn yard.
About the same time, a good sized
sow, weighing about 200 pounds, mys-
teriously disappeared, and no trace OF
her could be found. A few days ago,
having occasion to remove the straw,
the SOW was found underneath, stand
ing erect, and still alive, though wasted
away to a skeleton. She was about
six feet from the surface Of the pile in
the nearest direction, and had worked
small cavity in the straw around her.
She had been thus buried four months
less four days. AT last accounts, she
was doing well and was expected to
recover.
