Curious Facts about Water.

The extent to which water min
giles with bodies apparently the most
solid, is certainly wonderful. The
glittering opal, which beauty wears
as an ornament is only flint and wa
ter. Of every 1900 tons of earth
which landlord has on an estate,
400 are water. The snow,c capped
mountains of Snowden and Ben Ne,
Wis have many million tons of water
in solidified form. La every plaster
Paris statue, which an Italian carries
through our streets for sale, there is
one pound of water to four pounds
of chalk. The air we breathe COM
tains five grains of water to each
cubic foot OF its bulk. The potatoes
and turnips which are boiled for our
dinner have, in their raw state, the
one seventy-fve per cent, and the
other ninety per cent. of water. fla
m.r weighing ten stone were squeez
ed in a hydraulic press, seven and a
half stone of water would run out,
and only two and half of dry res
idue remain. A man is, chemically
speaking, forty-fve pounds of carbon
and nitrogen, diffused through five
and half pailfuils of water. In the
plants we find water mingling no less
wonderfully. A sunfiower evapor>
ates one and quarter pints of water
a day, and a cabbage about the same
quantity. A wheat plant exhales, in
one hundred and seventy>five days,
about 100000 grains of water An
acre Of growing wheat, on this cal
culation, draws and passes out ten
tons of water per day. The sap Of
the plant is the medium through
which the mass of fluid is conveyed.
1t forms delicate pump, up which
it flows with the rapidity of q swift
stream. By the action of sap, vari-
GUS properties may be assimilated to
the growing plant. Timber in France
is, for instance, dyed by various coli
ors being mixed with water, and
sprinkled over the roots Of trees
Dahalias are also colored by similar
process.

Women as Engravers.

Here is a solution of IL question
which troubles some people very
much. We say solution-we mean
an illustration helping to a solution.
1t is by the "Old Bachelor" or Harp
er's Bd-dr, who manages 10 say a
good many very sensible things in a
very quiet, unaffected way. Read !:
at seemed to me that women might
especially succeed as wood engrav>
ers, SO | went to one of the most ex-
perienced and successful engravers
in the city, and consulted with him.
Don't you see the difficulty ?" He
asked, with great kindness and inter
est.
"No," said | ''you must instruct
me-"
"Well, answered he, II have en-
ployed women here very often, and
| wish | could feel more encouraged.
But the truth is, that when young
man comes to me and begins his work,
he feels that it is his life's business
How to cut his future out of the lit
tie blocks before him. Wife, family,
home, happiness, are all to be carved
by his hands, and he settles steadily
and earnestly to his labor, determined
to master it, and with every incite-
ment squirting him on. Now it is
exactly the other way with the girl,
she may be as poor as, the youth and
wholly dependent upon her labor for
her living. But she feels that she
will probably be married by-and>by,
and then she must give up wood en-
craving. So she goes on listlessly !;
she has no ambition to excel she
does not feel that her happiness de-
ponds upon it. She will marry, and
then her husbands wages will sup
port her. "She may not say so,
said the engraver, ''but she thinks
so, and it spoils ALL"

Taxing the Interest on United States
Securities.

A Washington dispatch of the Goth
says;
Gen. Cobb, Of Wisconsin, produced
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES the House.
this afternoon, by offering a resolu-
ton instructing the Ways and Means
Committee to report, without unnec.
essary delay, bill requiring the Sec
rotary of the Treasury or his assist
ants charged with collecting interest
on United States bonds, to levy tax
OF ten per cent, payable annually, on
the interest OF all United States
bonds.
The previous question was called
upon the resolution, with view to
cutting off all debate, but the House,
by vote of 50 ayes to 81 nays, re-
fused to second it.
A motion to lay the resolution on
the table was then voted down ayes,
q nays, log
Gen. Garfield, Of Ohio, made a mo
ton to refer the resolution to the
Committee on Ways and Means, but
this was lost ayes 81, noes 80.
The question then REQUIRED upon
the passage Of the resolution, and it
passed by vote 90 ayes to 81 noes.

Mcpherson on Grant and Sherman

The gallant General McPherson,
who fell mortally wounded near At
lanta, Georgia, was for time u men,
Der of Grants military family, and
served through the memorable Vicks
burg campaign as commander of the
Seventeenth Army Corps, has left
the following record written but a
short time before his untimely death,
of his opinion of Grant and Sher>
man
"Gen. u. S. Grant | regard as one
of the most remarkable men OF our
country. Without aspiring to be a
geuius, or possessing those charac-
teristics which impress one forcibly
at first sight, his sterling good sense
calm judgement and presidency
of purpose more than eompensates
for those dashing, brilliant qualities
which ale apt to captivate at the
first glance. TO know and appreci~
ate Gen. Grant fully, one ought to be
mem Der of his military family
Though possessing remarkable re-
ticence as far as military operations
are concerned, he is frank and affa-
bic, converses well, and has a peculi>
arly retentive memory. When not
oppressed with the cares of bis posi-
ton, he is very fond OF talking, tell
ing anecdotes, etc. His purity of
character is unimpeachable, and his
patriotism of the most exhalted kind.
tie is generous to falt, humane and
true and steadfast friend to those
whom be deems worthy of his conf
pence, he can be relied upon in
case~ot emergency. Gen. w. T.
Sherman is what might be called a
brilliant man, possessing a broad and
comprehensive Intelligence. A rap
id thinker and ready writer, fertile
in his resources and untireing in his
exertions, he possesses those charac~
teristics which torcibly impress you
at first sight. He has mingled large
ly with the world and tried various
professions has read and reflected
much, and having remarkable re-
tentive memory, is we'll Informed
upon most subjects which come
within the scope of human thought.
He is Of much more excitable tenn
perment than Gen. Grant, and much
more apt to be swayed by impulses,
though his judgment is not so cool
and reliable. In other words, though
a more brilliant man, he does not pc
sess that sterling good common-sense
which pre- eminently distinguishes
Gen. Grant. He, is, however, most
brave and generous man, thoroughly
in earnest, and ready to sacrifice ev-
cry thing for the good of his coun~
try. He is a true friend and thor.
oughly unselfish and there are no
better men-or few, at least-than
General Sherman"

R@-The fact that Mrs. Elizabeth
Cady Stanton and Miss Susan b. An
thony were the only ladies who were
admitted upon the platform at Coop
er Institute, when Governor Seymour
addressed the great and enthusiastic
meeting of the Democracy of New
York city on Thursday evening, may
be regarded as not only committing
them to Governor Seymour's views,
but as committing the approaching
Democratic Convention, in whose be-
half Governor Seymour spoke, to the
doctrine of woman's suffrage. There
fore, whether Miss Anthony is receiv.
ed as delegate to the Jnly conven-
ton, to which she has been regular
ly appointed on motion of Mr.. Tilton,
it is clear that female suffrage must
be incorporated among the planks Of
the National Democratic platform
and if Governor Seymour, who is a
remarkable fne,looking man, and
can stand the scrutiny of an opers
glass without fiinching, is nominated
he will receive the undivided support
of the women of the North, which
will more than compensate for the
loss of the negro vote ofthe South. =
