SOMETHING ABOUT YoURsELF.-Sup-
posing your age to be 10 years, or there
about, | can figure you up to adot. You
have 100 bones and 500 muscles; your
blood weighs 25 pounds; your heart is
inches in length, and beats 20 times per
minute, 4,200 times per hour, 100,800
times per day, and 36,622, 200 per year.
At each beat little over two ounces of
blood is thrown out of it, and each day it
receives and discharges about seven tons
of that wonderful fluid. Your lungs con-
tain gallon Of air, and you inhale "a, 600
gallons per day. The aggregate surface
Of the air cells Of your lungs supposing
them to be spread out, exceeds 1900
square inches. The weight of your brain
is three pounds-when you are man it
will weigh about eight ounces more.
Your nerves exceed 10000, 900 in number.
Your skin is composed of three layers,
and varies from one-fourth to one-eighth
skin is about 100 square inches, and you
are subjected to an atmospheric pressure
of Is pounds to the square inch. Each
square inch of your skin contains 5000
sweating tubes or perspiration pores, each
of which may be likened to a drain tile,
one-fourth of an inch long, making an
aggregate length of the entire surface of
the body 2O1, 1852 feet or a tile ditch for
draining the body almost 40 miles long.

BRONZE ORNAMENTs.- The manufac-
ture of bronze ornaments has made great
progress in this country within the past
few years. This is owing chiefly to the
discoveries of rich zinc mines in New
Jersey, Illinois and Mississippi, which
have made the manufacturers independ-
ent Of foreign mines, and then to the
subsequent importation Of skilled labor.
Ten years ago the bronze manufacture
the most important branch of which is
the production Of gas Gxtures-was con-
fined to Philadelphia, where it still flour
ishes and progresses rapidly. More re-
Gently New York has taken up the man
ufacture, where more than one thousand
persons are now employed in that branch
Of industry.

THE "LIBERAL, STAMPEDE.

Occasionally we are told that this, or
that, or the other Republican has "come
out for Greeley" and that he means to
" stick" to him; but we hear of no pop
lar movement among Republicans in be-
half Of that eccentric gentleman. The
Hon. Peter Grievous, of Hard Scrabble,
avows his perversion, and the great con-
cern of mind he is laboring under be-
cause of that "bayonet rule" to which
the amiable Ku-Kluxes are subjected
but then it is speedily announced that
the Hon. Peter is disappointed man, he
having failed to get the collectorship of
Monkeytown, which opened his eyes to
the wickedness involved in the French
arms business, and to the unconstituton-
ality of acquiring San Domingo. Then
the adhesion to Greeley of Ichabod Goose
ass, Esq.-founder land chief devourer)
of the immortal Goose Club-is paraded;
but all know that Mr.. Gooseass failed to
receive the nomination Of his party for
Congress, since which melancholy occur
renee he has been all alive to the danger
that threatens the country from the ap-
preaching establishment of an imperial
dynasty, and to the intention of Govern
ment to have the resolutions of 1898 re-
pealed, SO that the constitution of 1889
may be overthrown. Then comes news
that the great Snoodledog has seen the
wickedness Of his ways, and that he, hav-
ing had his "ring" broken, is bent upon
breaking the head of the Republican par
ty. But these gentlemen have no follow
ing. They may have very long heads,
but their tails" are so short as to be in
visible. They drop into the Greeley camp
" solitary and alone" Mr.. Grievous has
his griefs all to himsef. Mr.. Gooseass is
unattended by other geese or goslings,
and Mr.. Snoodledog barks and bays with
out an accompaniment. The "masses"
do not move with them, or after them, or
for them, but take matters with great
GOODNESS, having made up their minds
that the time has not come Tor change,
SO long as rebels shall be unrepentant,
and Democrats show themselves incapa-
bic of understanding that a new world
has risen, and that the old political things
have passed away.-B0St0n 1raUeEer.

THE PRESIDENT AND AN ABOLITION
IsT.-The Virginia Enterprise relates
this story:
Senator Nye tells good story on Pres
ident Grant, who was interviewed by an
old Abolitionist from the Western Re-
serve, in Ohio, who wanted to be certain
as to Grants anti-slavery record. Said
the Presidents interlocutor You will
have to excuse me Mr.. President, but |
would like to inquire Of you as TO your
past party affiliations" You are at
liberty, sir" replied the President, "to
make any inquiries in that respect that
you please. But will tell you in ad-
vance that voted for Mr.. Buchanan in
1856, and ought to have been disfranchis-
ed for 81 doing" "How did you vote
in 1860 ?" inquired the Western Reserve
gentleman. 81 did not vote at all, ;" re-
piled the President, "Well, then" con-
tinued his interviewer, "who did you go
for in 1864 2" "In 1864" replied the
President, hesitatingly; "oh, yes re-
member. In 1854 / went for General
