Curiosities of Life,

Lay your finger on your pulse, and
know that at every stroke some immortal
passes to his maker; some fellow being
crosses the river Of death and if we
think of it we may we'll wonder that it
should be so long before our turn comes
Half of all who live die before seven
teen.
Only one person in ten thousand lives
to be hundred years old, and but one
in hundred reaches sixty.
The married live longer than the sin
gle.
There is nesoldier to every eight per-
sons, and out of every thousand born on
ly ninety-fve weddings take place.
If you take thousand persons who
have reached seventy years there are of
Clergymen, orators, and public speak
ers. AZ.
Farmers, 40.
Workmen, SO.
Soldiers, 81.
Lawyers, -.
Professors, q.
Doctors, "a.
These statements are very instructive.
Farmers and workmen do not arrive at
good old age as often as the clergymen
and others who perform no manual labor
but this is owing to the neglect of the
laws of health, inattention to proper hab-
its of life in eating, drinking, sleep, dress,
and the proper care of themselves after
the work of the day is done. These
farmers or workmen eat a heavy supper
of a summers day, and sit around the
door in their shirt-sleeves; and in their
tired condition and weakened circulation
are easily chilled, laying the foundation
for diarrhea, bilious collie, lung fever, OF

THE SUBSTRATUN OF HABIT.

Good old Deacon s.. Of Ipswich.
who laid up goodly store Of this worlds
wealth, and retired from active business,
was a stern patriot, and a prompt support
er Of government in its hour of peril -
Among the goods aud chattels of which
he still retained possession was an old
brig, Of two or three hundred tons meas
urement, which had recently brought
home a cargo OF sugar from Cuba, and
which had been pronounced by her skip
per to be unfit for another voyage with
out much repair. But the Deacon sent
one of his younger sons to Boston, where
the brig lay, with instructions to sell her
if he could. Said the old man:
"She's good enough for coastins. Tim
and may be of much service yet Get
eight thousand dollars if you can; but
don't let her 60 for less than six thou
sand"
Timothy went to Boston, where he
found half dozen parties eager to pur
chase, and without delay be sold the ves-
sci. and returned home.
What, Tim-back SO sooni Dye
sell the brig2'
"Yes, father
How much dye gesT"
Twelve thousand"
Twelve thousand ,ohat?'
Twelve thousand dollars, to be sure, y
The old Deacon could not credit it,
The sum was more than double any pos
sible price he could have fixed as the
briggs real value. OF course nobody had
been reckless enough to pay any such
sum in cash.
Look ye, Tim," he cried, with great
indignation, you've been and sold thai
old brig to some underhanded rebel
some contemplate enemy of our govern
ment-who was willing to promise dou-
bic what she was worth just to get her
off down South His notes aren', worth
the paper they're written on"
But Tim assured the old man that he
had sold the vessel to carry provisions
to our own troops and. furthermore,
that he had received the full amount in
greenbacks which latter statement he
verified by producing the crisp and
| highly illuminated issues of Uncle Sam s
Treasury Department.
The good old Deacon stood for little
time thoughtful. Then he laid his hand
upon his sons shoulder; and, with a
sligh: shadow Of regret upon his face, Sc
riously said {:
Tim, if ye'd hung on, and been BIT
stiff, don't ye think ye might haze got a
LEETLE MORE for her?

WISHING.
BY JOHN @ SAKE.

BY JOHN SAKE.
OF all the amusements Of the mind,
From logic down to fishing,
There isn't one that you can find
SO very cheap as wishing;"
A very choice diversion. too,
II We but.rightly use it,
And not, Is We are apt 10 do.
Pervert it and abuse it. -
l wish-a common wish indeed
My purse was somewhat fatter,
That 1 might cheer the child Of need,
Aud not my pride to Aatter
That l might make oppression reel.
As only gold can make it.
And break the tyrant's rod Of steel,
As only gold can break il.
wish-thst sympathy and love,
And every human passion
That has its origin above.
Would come and keep in fashion;
Thst scorn, and Jealousy. and hate,
And every base emotion.
We're buried fifty fathoms deep
Beneath the waves Of ocean.
wish-that friends were always true,
And motives always pure;
Iwish the good were not so few,
Iwish the bad were fewer;
Iw.ea that persons ne'er forgot
To heed their pious teaching;
Iwish that practicing was not
So diffsren. from preaching.
I wish-that modest worth might be
Apprsised with truth and candor;
wish that innocence were free
From treschery and Islander;
wish that men their VOWS would mind ;
That women ne'er we're rovers;
Iwish that wives were always kind,
And husbands always lovers.

proportion of one quart to two gallons Of
water. You will gain twenty five per

best at discounting the lacteal.

SLEEP, PAINTING, APOPLEXT.

When man is asleep, his pulse beats
and his lungs play. but he is without
sense, and you can easily wake him up.
If person faints, he. too, is without,
sense, but he has no pulse and does not
breathe.
Apople1y is between the two; the
heart beats, the lungs play as in sleep,
and there Is no sense, as in fainting, but
you cannot shake the man back to life.
In sleep, the face is natural; in faint
ing fit, it has the pallor Of death in ap-
oplexy. it is swollen. turgid, and fairly
livid
If man is asleep, let him alone ; ma
ture will wake him up as soon as he has
got sleep enough.
When person faints, all that is needed
IS to lay him down fiat on the floor and
he will come to- in double quick time
He tainted because the heart missed a
beat, failed for an instant, failed for only
once to send the proper amount of blood
to the brain. If you place the patient in
horizontal position, lay him on bis back
it does not require much force of the
heart to send the blood on level to the
head but if you get man up. the blood
has to be shot upwards to the head, and
this requires much more force; yet in
nine cases out of ten, if a person faints
and falls to the floor. the first thing done
to him is to run to him and set him up.
Or place him on a chair.
In apople1y, as there is too much blood
in the head, every one can see that the
best position is to set man up, and the
blood naturally tends downwards, as much
80 as water will come out of a bottle
when turned upside down, if the cork is
out.
II, then. man is merely asleep. let
him alone, for the face is natural; if a
man has tainted, lay him fat on his back,
for his face is deadly pale; if a man is
apopleciic, set him in a chair, because
the face is turbid, swollen, livid, with its
excess of blood,

tured the barricades in Rue Pegronnet. The
commandant of the nationals was shot during
the fight by cure. The Daily News special

arrested $50 fugitive national guards. 1t is pos
itively denied that the dispute between the CEN

powder magazine near Maillot gate was blown
up by the shells of the Versailles batteries and
several persons killed.
VERSAILLES, May 9.-Clamart has become so

ments that the Versailles troops were obliged to
evacuate the place. The government relieves
from service about Paris and sends to the de-
partments all soldiers having relatives in the
capital. The Versailles army continues its ap-
proaches to The Bots de Boulogne. The battery
at Montratout to-day commenced firing upon
the insurgent positions at Point du Jour and
elsewhere. The news otherwise is unimportant.

w WORCESTER


The treaty prepared by the "Joint High Com
mission" has been signed and sent to the state
department The summary of its contents
printed in the Spy and other papers, yesterday,
we notice. is generally accepted as Official" 1t
may be substantially correct, but it can not be
official. 1t appears to be due to the inquiries
and researches of Washington reporter, whose
fancy may not have been idle during the investi-
cation. The treaty will be laid before the SEN
ate on the FIRST day of its extra session; there
fore, we shall soon know accurately what has
been done.
Assuming this abstract to be correct, the New
York papers discuss it. Most of them think il
shows that the treaty on the whole will be salts
factory 70 our people, although some of its pro
visions may be criticised. Objection is made to
the provision which connects the adjustment of
certain claims of British subjects with the Ala
bama question. But, such British claims re-
Quiring adjustment, cannot be large in amount.
British claims growing out Of the Confederate
cotton loan, and also the attempt TO "clalm"
something on account of the very wonderful
and desolaiing Fenian invasions Of Canada, were
ruled out before the commission began its work.
The blockade runners cannot, of course, be al
lowed to claim anything. England does not ask
this. If any British subject has really honest
claim for damages done him by our government
during the war, we cannot in justice refuse to
give it attention; but not many British claims
of this kind can be found. On the other hand
all claims for damages done by the Alabama
and her piratical consorts, and by the rebel raid
from Canada 10 St. Adams, VT, are to b. paid
But the matter can be discussed with more
intelligence and satisfaction, when we get the
whole text of the treaty as it will be sent TO the
senate, to-day. Every one will rejoice to see
our differences with Great Britain settled honor
ably; and, we believe, there will be a general
disposition to approve the acceptance of treaty
which shall, on our side, concede no principle
involved in the controversy, and secure terms of
settlement which are fair and just. Some inter
est is felt relative TO the course Senator Sumner
may pursue towards the treaty. 1t has been
assumed that he would oppose any treaty this
commission could make But we are unable to
find any warrant whatever for this assumption.
Senator Summers action is always controlled
by his own strong conviction of what is Just and
necessary, and never by mere prejudice or any
other unworthy influence. He desires settle
ment of the controversy, and will do nothing
unreasonable to prevent it. We feel warranted
in saying this, by what we know of his charac
ter. 1t is stated that he has seenlthis Official
abstract, and that, if it is correct, 'his cours'
towards the treaty will be one of qualified ap
prevail; that che will criticise here and there
but will acknowledge that the commissioner
have done as well as they could, and vote 70
the treaty." The reporter isl probably, NOR
Oracular in this statement, than his knowledg,
of Mr.. Summers views can Justify.
