EARNING THEIR GRUB.-The pris-

work daily on the streets, and are
under the supervision of the Street
Superintendent. From three to six
men are sent out every day to work

Fourth Street neighbor should learn
this, and discontinue its items about
boarding out J." fines. The Street Su-
perintendent testI6es that the prison
ers are good workers, and do as much
for the city at sixty cents day as the
regular street hands do at two dollars
per day. Every person sent to the
lookup for non-payment of fiaes will
have to work out his Indebtedness,
No exceptions will be made.

A BEAUTIFUL AND WELCOME PRES
ENr-Yesterday morning bright
eyed. INTELLIGENT looking boy broueht
to our sanctum large and beautiful
bououet composed of more than
twenty varieties of delicate and fra
GRANT flowers. arranged with exquisite
taste Accompanying it was the fol-
loving note, written in clear, beau

Twill you please accept, from the
pupils of the Ninth Street building,
this bouquet, composed of flowers
which we have had the pleasure of
cultiyatiug, and which, we hope, may

May 70, 1869.
1t affords as unspeakable pleasure
to accept this beautiful testimonial
Of the kindness and respect of the
pupils of the Ninth Street Binding,
and we shall cherish a remembrance
Of this pleasant episode long after the
flowers shall have withered. The
pupils of the Ninth Street Building
have taken lively interest in the cul-
tivation of flowers, aud have made
the grounds around that building a
perfect paradise of beauty. This
early training in the habits of indus
try and the cultivation Of taste fOI
the beautiful cannot fail to have a
happy influence on the mind and
| hearts Of the pupils, inspiring then

H%YAcISTHr AND BrEoHER THErR
SINILARITY.-The New York Sun says
this: A comparison of the photograph
Of Father Hyacinthe, with that of the
Rev. Henry Ward Bescher, shows many
points Of resemblance in the personal
appearance Of these two distinguished
pulpit orators. Both have that remark
able fullness under the lower eyelids
which is the recognized sign Of great
powers of language. Both have, also,
a heavy development of the under jaw,
indicating q jolly appreciation Of the
good things of this life and q resolute
will. There il, too, in each q head
of massive proportions, in comparison
with the body. What is known Of the
character aud history Of these two rev.
ersnd gentlemen, is in accord with
these external signs. Both are impa-
tiert Of tyranny and abuses, and both
are bold rebels against the conventional
standard Of faith Of their co-religionists.
Were not Mr.. Bescher fortunate in hay-
ing no superior to whom he is account
ablo, be, too, would have been an out
cast from the orthodox fold. Let US
hope that Father Hyaeinthe may yet be
as lucky as Mr.. Beecher has been in
securing a wealthy constituency devoted
to his support.

TuE amount of meat obtained from

THE amount of meat obtained from o
domestic animal sold by its live weight
is variable, and experiments have re.
comfy been made in Liverpool to ascer-
tain the proper allowance to be made.
From the statistics to BIO derived from
the public slaughter houses or abattoirs
Of Paris and Brussels, it appears that
the race and condition of the animal,
besides many other circumstances,
affect the result, and that certain ami
mails yield as much as 10 per cont. Of
meat, while others only give so per cent.
The mean weight Of meat produced,
however, is calculated at So per cent.
Of the live weight in beef cattle. In
the case Of sheep, tho proportion is
from 40 to SO per cent. From expert
mcnts made, it appears that the differ
emit products obtained from oIen and
sheep, are as follows-An OK Of tho
live weight of 1899 pounds yields meat
77l.4 pounds; skin, 1902; grease, SO;
blood, 55.1; feet and hoofs, ~; head,
