American Flags i'm Rome.
New York Graphic,

New York Graphic.
A correspondent writes that two
United States flags stand alone in q
corner of the great hall of the Propa-
ganda at Rome. The story is that in
one of the Italian rebellions, the leader
of the insurgents planted his cannon
before the Propaganda, intending to
destroy it. The frightened Papal au-
thorities begged Minister Cass to save
the building by the power of the Amer
lean flag; neither the flag of England,
France and Austria would be respected,
but the American flag would. After
much hesitation, Mr.. Cass publicly re-
moved his consulate to the Propaganda
and raised the flag of our Union over
its roof. The chief of the insurgents
swore he would not fire On the flag,
made his cannon ready, and moved
away. The Propaganda was saved, and
the flags have this honor for the good
they did in time of peril.

A Touching Incident.

There is in the Hebrew burial SER
vice one prayer which is not read by
the officiating minister, but by the son
of the deceased, or in case there be no
son, by some orr han in whom the de-
ceased was interested. At the services
for the late Baroness Mayer de Roths-
child, in London, this part of the SER
vice was taken by d deaf orphan bow,
pupil in an institution for teaching
the deaf to speak. The Baroness was
largely instrumental in founding two
such schoals. He recited the prayer,
which proclaims s.the exaltatioh of
God IN that world in which, He is 70 re-
store the dead to everlasting life" with
very distinct utterance. AS he re-
peated the prayer with the mournful
cadence, into which it is said the deaf
who are taught to speak naturally fall,
this part of the service, always i'm
pressive, was most deeply felt in its
fervent solemnity.

clpal for any number of days. The
answer in each case being in cents, sep
arate the two right-hand figures of the
answer to express it in dollars and
cents:
Four per cent Multiply by the
number of days, and divide by seventy
two.
Six per cent.-Multiply by the num-
Der of days, separate the right-hand
figure, and divide by six.
Eight per cent-Multiply by the
number of days, and divide by forty
five.
Nine per cent.-Multiply by the
number of days, separate the right
hand figure, and divide by four.
Ten per cent.-Multiply by the num-
Der of days, and divide by thirty-fve.
Twelve per cent.-Multiply by the
number of days, separate the right-hand
figure, and divide by three.
Fifteen per cent.-Multiply by the

Babies.

From the Cincinnati Commercial.
"Babies must be paid for" says
Punch; and SO be they do not come too
often, and in reasonable numbers, the
tax is paid cheerfully. There is ire
mendous enthusiasm when sufficient
intelligence is stored in it's vacuous
brain to articulate the simple words ma
and pa. The amount of patient effort
consumed IN getting it to repeat the
words for the edifcation of visitors,
and particularly ''pa" himself, when
be returns from his days labors, would,
if concentrated, build the pyramid of
Cheops in q week, and transport the
Egyptian obelisk to the embankment
of the Thames in day.
The babe is an everlasting wonder
till the next arrives. Then it is put
into small clothes, cloyed with candies,
gorged with bon-bons, praised for its
smartness. spanked for it's mischief,
and allowed to grow up like other chill
dren, to become an ordinary man or
woman, and repeat the wonder that
has been and will be to the end of time.
But it is noticeable that with the arrival
of the second baby there is not the
same confidence as on the arrival of
first, that it is the most wonderful thing
IN the United States, not excepting the
Constitution and the Fifteenth amend
ment. By the time the family register
IS numbered with the patronyrnic of
the sixth or seventh, babies become
matter of course, and fathers and
mothers make the CONFUSING discov-
cry that babies are not such extraordi-
nory events after all, and that they
have a remarkable resemblance to
each other while in the cartilaginous
