a few days since a resident of this
city, who had been passing a year in
Texas, started for home with his wife
to renew his business connections in
Boston. He reached Little Rock few
days after the 18th of June, and hav-
ing recorded his name and residence,
was shown to his room. He had scarlely
busted his coat and washed up, when a
rap at the door was given. UponOpen-
ing it he found three strangers.
You are from Boston, l think"
said the spokesman.
Boston is my native place and Bos.
ton is my destination, " replied the gen.

we have got hold of, We propose TO
have the deed of reconciliation be-
tween Arkansas and old Massachu-
sets signed and witnessed right here

The Bostonian was little dazed, but
he went down stairs where he was re-
ceived with cheers. He was interview
ed by the local editor; he and his wife
were shown the beauties of the place in
the best turnout in the place; and he
was sent on his way rejoicing.

The biggest Baby as h1rtns ON Ae'
cord.
Springfield Mass Republican.
Last Thursday evening, a male
child of D. J. Shea was weighed imme-
diately after its birth by DR.. Rice, in
the presence of a dozen witnesses, with
balance scales, and weighed twenty
pounds and two ounces. This weight
can be relied upon, as there was no
spring to cause the scales to deceive;
the figures were seen by several per-
sons, and those present guessed the
weight of the child to be eighteen
pounds or more before it was placed In
the balance. The weight Is also veri-
fed by measurements Of the child,
taken sixty hours after its birth. The
horizontal circumference Of its head is
sixteen inches, the perpendicular cir
conference sixteen three-quarter
inches; length of child TWEEN
ty three and three quarter
inches; distance from shoulder to
shoulder over the chest, twenty and
One-half inches; In short the child is as
large as an Ordinary babe a year old,
and is Sell and f0urishing. That these
figures are entirely unparalleled is
proved by medical works which give
instances Of infants weighing from
thirteen to fourteen pounds at birth,
but generally scout the idea of greater
weights. One author, indeed, tells of
a stubborn child of seventeen pounds,
and a scarcely authentic case Of a still
born child of over nineteen pounds,
but gives fifteen pounds as the maxi
mum weight, and about seven and one
half pounds as the average weight of
living infants. This is the first child
of the parents, both of whom are of
Irish descent. The mother is five feet
four inches high, % years old, weighs
l35 pounds when in good health, and
bears ner confinement well. The father
is 24years old, and is not a man of un-
usual size.
