BOTH SIDES,

a man in his carriage was riding along,
A gaily dressed wife by hissside;
In satin aud laces she looked like the queen
And lie like a king in his pride
A wood sawyer stood in the street as they
passed
The carriage and couple he eyed
And said, as he worked with his saw on a
log,
81 wish L was rich and could ride"
The man in the carriage remarked to his
wife,
''One thing L would give if L could.
give my wealth Cor the strength and tie
health
OF the man who is saving the wood"
A pretty young maid, with a bundle cf work,
w hose face, as the morning, was fair,
Went tripping along with a smile of delight
While humming love-breathing air.
She looked on the carriage the lady she saw,
Arrayed i'll apparel SO fine,
And said i'll a whisper, Il wish from my
heart
Those satins and laces were mipe.''
The lady looked out on the maid with her
work,
So fair in her calico dress,
And said, "I'G relinquish position aud
wealth,
Her beauty and youth to possess.
Thus ii is in the world whatever our lot.
Our minds and our time we employ
In longing aud signing for what we have
not,
Ungrateful for what we enjoy.

Il NOBBY LITTLE COUPLE.

Two Of the smallest children in the world
Tor their ages, which are twelve years, aud
two months old respectively, were intro
duced to the faculty and students of JEFF
ferson Medical College. Philadelphia, re-
Gently. SenOrita Lucia Zuranto. a spright-
iy brunette, lis fraction under twenty
inches high, and weighs five pounds in her
new elegant costume, which includes COM
plete female gaIb, from a bonnet down to
the modern gaiter. the latter being less
than three inches long. 1t was explained
that she was born at San Carlos, near The
city of Vera Cruz, Mexic0 her parents
were both large and healthy persons. She
talks Spanish fluen:ly, and understands
smattering of the English tongue. Gen.
Mitewastwelve years old the 9th of October.
Tie was born in Green Chenango county
New York, his parents bearing the name of
Finn, the father who accompanied the
diminutive weighing III pounds. At his
birth the General weighed II pounds. His
avordupois now is 9 pounds height %
inches. He is blonde. The General
wore full ball room costume, consisting
of black coat and pantaloons. white vest
and white necktie. During his visit to the
college the little fellow talked fiuently. and
was quite active, and, when not tIeading
on the trail of her ladyship's dress was
busily engaged i'm casting affectionate
glances at her. In presenting the lillpu-
tians to the admirinC assemblage, Professor
Getchell said he had brought the couple
there to introduce them TO the Philadelphia
Museum, q: Ninth and Arch Streets as
something wonderful even at this wonder
full age. He explained that he had made
a careful examination OF the subjects ard
found them intelligent, healthy and per
fectly formed The heart of either, said
he is not larger than An ordinary sized
hickory nut, and the liver in equal proper
tions; ard yet thev perform their functions
regularly and perfectly as those offully de-
veloped men and women. Their brains, he
added, correspond with the size of their
bodies, and their intelligence surpasses
their size. At the conclusion of the Pro-
fessor's remarks the General shook hands
all around. and the pert Miss bowed and
threw kisses at the gallants with whom she
had been cOquettinG.

SCIENTIFIC FAcTs.-A slight blow Is suf-
ficisnt TO smash a whole pane of glass,
while bullet from gun will only make a
small round hole in it; because in the latter
case, the PARTICLES of glass that receive the
blow are torn away from the remainder
with such IA pidity that the motion impaired
10 them has no time tn spread further. A
door standing open, which would readily
yield on its hinges to a gentle push, is not
moved by cannon ball passing through 1t.
The ball in passing through, overcOmes the
whole force of cohesion among :he atoms
of the wood. but its force acts for so short
a time, owing to its rapid passage, that 1t
is not sufficient To affect the inertia of tho
door to extent to produce motion, The
cohesion of the part Of the wood cut out 10y
the ball would have borne a very great
weight laid quietly upon it; but, suppose
to fly at the rate &C 200 feet in a second.
and the door to be one inch thick, the
cohesion being allowed to act for only the
minute fraction of second, its influence
is not perceived.

grandsons has been Governor of the State.

war, and one was killed during the late
war while holding high rank in the Con-
federate army.

OBTTUARY EFFUsIoNs.-The american
Register, Paris publication, recently de-
voted a column or more To :he considea-
tion of obituary poetry. 1t deprecates the
vagaTies of human taste which makes it
possible for the living 70 connect the dead
with broad and mirihprovoking farce.
In the course of its criticism the Register
brings the Philadelphia Ledger under re-
view, and says that its obituary column is
usually more aughter-provoking than its
comic department, Il, indeed, such a de-
partment exists, quoting the stanZa so
popular with the Ledger, running thus
Put away the little bonnet
That our Sally used TO wear,
She will need il no more never.
She has climbed the golden stair
This verse, says the Register. seems to
be an immense favorite, because of the
facility wherewith il can be adapted to salt
any particular case. Thus. the bonnet may
be changed to nghtcap, jacket, trousers,
slippers. stockings. in fact almost any ar
ticle of attire, while the name may also be
varied Gd infHitum.
But 1t the selections are absurd, observes
the critic, what shall be said of the original
verces when the heart of the mourner over
flows in lines guiltless Of meters rhyme.
and equally devoid of ideas or of gr amman?
What shall we say. for instance, to the fol-
lowing touching stanza, which appeared
some time ago in the obituary column of
the New York Herald
b. She lived ss gently as dove,
She died a. angels die.
And now her sonl has gone to dwell
With heavenly God Oh high.
We might get over the dying ange is,
through our recollections Of theology al
ways led us To imagine that those Gel estisl
beings were immortal. But we ca n hard
ly explain the epithet which is applied to
the Diety in the last line unless the writer
were a believer in the ancient mythology,
and SO imagined that there are Internal
gods as well.
