In recent address ex-senator Doo-
little remarked: "Whatever may be
said in criticism of Mr.. Johnson's pub
lio course, all parties agree that the
white house was never more gracefully
kept and presided over, than by his
daughter, Mrs. Patterson-a perfect Ia
dy, a model of a republican mistress of
the white house. Let me tell fact
which has never been published, but
which I had from the lady's own lips
Just as she was about to leave, at the
end of MIR. fJ Johnson's administration,
the steward of the house took an inven-
tory, aud found that not one article of
furniture was missing or broken, not a
sheet, towel or napkin was lost, and
the house was in perfect order from top
to bottom. She told me another fact,
which know the wives and daughters
of the farmers of Wisconsin will be glad
to hear. When they went into the
white house she purchased two excel.
lent COWS. From the milk of these
COWS she made all the butter, used all
the cream, and made all the ice.cream
used in the presidents family during
his term. When she went home, she
shipped these COWS to Tennessee. is it

Weights OF Boys and GIRLS.

Upon the average. boys at birth
weigh little more and girls little
less than seven pounds. For the first
twelve years the two sexes continue
nearly equal in weight, but beyond that
age the BOYS acquire decided prepon-
derance. Young men of twenty average
one hundred and thirty-fve pounds,
while the young women of twenty aver
age one hundred and zen pounds each.
Men reach their heaviest weight at
about forty years of age, when, their av-
erage weight will be about one hun
dred and forty pounds, but women
slowly increase in weight until fifty years
of age, when their average weight will
be one hundred and thirty. Taking the
men and women together, their weight
ut full growth will then average from
one hundred and eight to one hundred
and fifty and women from eighty to
one hundred and thirty. The average
weight of humanity all over the world.
taking the ages and. conditions, work
ingmen and women, and gentleman and
ladies without occupation, black and
white, boys, girls and babies, is very
nearly one hundred pounds, avoirdu-
pois weight.

Infantielae by Opium. !.

One of the best informed, physicians
in England, Dra Mitchell, employed in
the public health service, some time
ago published mass of testimony OBJ
tanned by him from numerous medical
witnesses, showing the almost universal
resort to opium in order to benumb and
stupefy children, even those Of the ten.
derest age; very common preparation
OF this sort being so.called cordial
made of treacle and opium. So general,
it tappears, is the use OF this mixture,
that customers go to the apctheceries,
and, without any hesitation. ask for Q
dose of it t.t to give to the baby next
day, as they are going ont 70 walk Z
Che mists frankly ADMIT that they
make and sell these opium deccctions
by the barrel and hogsheads full. This
baleful usage prevails not only in the
tcoliery districts, but also in the manu-
featuring and non-manufact cturinge dis
tricts; and 1t isl stated by one iphyaician
that in Che Nottingham, Derby and
Leicester districts the habit of adminis-
tering opium to infants usually begins
when the child is three or four weeks
old. And still another witness asserts
that the opium cordial is given on the
very day of birth, being in readiness for
that event. The inevitable result OF
this terrible custom is, of course, that
great numbers OF infants perish, either
suddenly from m overdose, or, as more
commonly haprsns, by slow, painful,
insidious disease. Compared, there
fore, with this form Of infantioide, the
kind practiced by the Chinese may be
said to be meroiful.

A Steam Cider-Mill.

The Detroit Tribune in recording the
observations of the Michigan orchard
committee says: AT Battle Greek the
committee had the pleasure of examin-
ing new cider-mill and press. The
grinding of the apples, pressing, and
pumping are all done by steam power.
The apples are ground very rapidly,
and the "oheeses are put up in one.
quarter of the time required in the old
mode, stout cambria being used instead
OF straw in making up the "cheeses," I"
so that the juice comes out pretty free
from pulp. Two mem will lay up a
good-sized "cheese," in fifteen minutes,
The press is then applied, and is self
working, and by the time another
"cheese" is ready to be pressed the
first "cheese" is ready to be removed.
The cider flows into cistern beneath
the floor. from which it is forced into a
large tank above but before it goes in
to the tank it passes through q char.
coal filter, which renders it pure and
clear. BY extending iron pipes from
this tank to q side track which has been
laid near the mill, barrels are filled
aboard cars. A barrel of cider is given
for ten bushels of apples the price for
making We did not learn.

The wondrous "Green Vault,

A correspondent of the Chicago Jour.
nal, speaking of the art collections of
Dresden, says: "For wealth of con-
tents, the Green Vault excels any
and all the rest of the collections. The
Green Vault consists of several vault.
ed apartments on the ground floor of
the museum, each of which is devoted
to some one kind of valuable object.
In one are Florentine and other mo "a
les; in another gold and silver plate
which adorned the hanquets OF the
Saxon kings in another vessels formed
of half precious stones, among which
are two goblets, valued at $4,000 each.
In the last are found articles the most
valuable of all: one, called the court
Of the great mogul, consists of 1873
figures of pure gold and enamelled, and
cost $58, 900; and finally comes glass
case filled with most precious suits of
costly jewels, sapphires, emeralds, ru.
bies, pearls, and, in still greater profu-
sion, diamonds. One hardly knows
which to be astonished at most. the
wonderful richness of the collection or
the wonderful folly of the princes who,
from taxes no doubt levied upon their
subjects, would collect such an amount
of wealth to lie for years as dead
capital"

n1yatorx OF the LnIrea.

Lake Erie is only so or 70 feet deep !;
but Lake Ontario, which is 500 feet
deep, is 230 feet below the tide level of
the ocean, Or as low as mostp of the
Gulf of st. Lawrence; and the bot
toms of Lakes Huron. Michigan and
Superior, although the surface is not
much higher, are all, from their vast
depths, on level with the bottom of
Ontario. Now, as the discharge through
the River Detroit, after allowing for
the probable portion carried off by
evaporation, does not appear by any
means equal to the quantity of water
which the three upper lakes receive, it
has been conjectured that subterra-
mean river may run from Lake Superior,
by the Huron, to Lake Ontario. This
conjecture ,is not improbable, and ac-
counts for the singular fact that salmon
and herring are caught in all the lakes
communications with the st. Lawrence,
but no others. AS the falls of Niagara
must have always existed, it would puz.
zle the naturalist to say how these fish
got into the upper lakes without some
subterranean river moreover, any peri
odical obstruction of the river would
furnish not improbable solution of the
mysterious fiux and refux of the lakes.
