ABOUT BABIES Old ladies say
that, if babies have strength to live
seven days they will most likely live
seven weeks, and if they live over
seven weeks they will live seven
months; and, unless something par
ticularly bad happens them, they will
reach the age of seven years, pro-
vided the seven months are safely got
over. 1t is an old belief, that if
child cries loudly at its birth, and
lifts up an open hand, 1t is born to
command; but il it clutches with its
thumb tucked in, 1t will be of
,cringing, slavish disposition.

The Russian method Of acquiring for
eign languages is more methodical than
that of any other nation. In the first
place fnraityR nu;se, usually English, is
secured for the baby. The Russians are
very careful in choosing this parsonage,
because, as she is not on any account to
breathe into the infants ears an accent of
plebeian Russ, her speech must be free
from those colloquialisms in which la
dies like Sairev Camp are apt to indulge.
When the child is about nine years old
foreign playmates are sought for 1t. Dur
ing the stim1her months the children of
the English and Frcneh residents In Rus
sia are at a premium. 1t is regular
practice for them to spend their holidays
on the estates of Russian nobility. Be-
side the pleasure which the trip into the
interior affords them. they mostly return
home laden with presents, and if boy is
sharp enough to be able to add little
grammatical instruction to his practice as
" conversationalist," he may pick up
enough pocket-money to last him the re-
mainder of the twelve months. Lastly, a
tutor or governess 10 engaged for the child
until 1t Can Converse in foreign lam
guage rs freely and faultlessly as ma
tive. Language masters make fine liy-
ing in Russia. In spite of their numbers
English teachers may be counted by
the hundreds-they charge high price
for their instruction. and are held in great
esteem by the Russians, who often retain
their service for years.-Eachange.

Ex-President Grant.

New YoRx, May 10.
The following is the farewell address OF
ex- President Grant, made while steaming
down the Delaware:
Ny DEAR FRIEEps--f was not aware
we would have SO much speech. making
here, or that it would be necessary for me
to say any more to you, but | feel that the
compliments you have showered upon me
were not altogether deserved. They
should not all be paid to me, either as a
soldier or as civil officer. AS General,
your praises do not belong to me; as the
Executive of the Nation, they were not duo
to me. There is no man that can fill both
or either of these positions without
the help of good men. i selected my
Lieutenants when / was in both positions,
and they were men, believe, which
could have filed my place often better
than did. never fattered myself
was entitled to the place you gave me.
My -Lieutenants could have acted, per.
haps, better than I, had opportunity pre-.
sented itself. Gen. Sherman could have
taken my place as a soldier, or in the
civil office, and so could Sheridan and
others might name. I am sure, if the
country ever comes to this need again,
there will be men for the work there will
be men born for every emergency. Again.
! thank you, and again I bid you good
by, and once again say that if had
failed, Sherman or Sheridan, or some of
my other Lieutenants, would have sue
