The SmalIes: Baby Alive.

Carson New Appeal
A gentleman from C4ndelaria informs
us that the smallest baby in the world
was born i'll the camp at noon on the
third instant. The father is miner in
the employ of the Northern Belle mine
and weighs 100 pounds. The mother is
a stout, healthy woman weighing, per-
haps, 100 pounds. The child is
male, as perfectly formed as
any human being can be,
but upon its birth 1t only weighed eight
ounces. Its face is about the size of a
horse chestnut, and the size of its limbs
can be imagined when We say that a
ring worn on the little finger of its
mother was easily slipped over its foot
nearly up to its knee. Our informant
states that it was the opinion of the at
tending physician that the child would
live and prosper in good health, not
withstanding its dlminutive propor-
tions. The midget is so small that
three of its size could play hide-and-
seek in cigarbox. This is believed to
be the smallest boy ever born.

The Village Murmers.
FROM THE DESERTED VILLAGE, BY OLIVER COLD
SMITH.

SMITH.
Sweet was the sound when oft ut evenings
Up wonder hill, the village murmer rose;
There as 1 pussea with careless steps and slow.
lie minsling notes came soflened from below;
The sober herd that iow'd to meet the,r young.
The noisy gee.e thut gabbled o'er the pool.
The pluyi iul chiiren. just let loose from school.
The watch-dsg's voice that bsy'd the Whisper
And the loud laugh that spoke the vacant mind,
These all IN sweet confusion sought the shade,
And iil'd each pause the nightingale had made.
And now the sounds o. population fail.
No cheerful murmers luctuate In the gale,
NO busy steps the grass.growmn w ioot.wsy tread.
But all the blooming flush OF life ID hed;
All but yon wiaow'd, solitary thing,
Thrt feebly b. nds beside the splashy spring.
she wre.ched n,atron forced in age for bread.
10 pick her winter faSot from the thorn,
| l seek her nightly shed and weep till morn.
She only lett OF ali the harmless tram,
The sad historian of the pensive dnire.
Near yondcr copse. where once the garden
And still where many IL garden flower grows
wild;
There. where few torn shrubs the place dis

The village preachers modest mansion rose,
~ man Ii" was to all the country dear.
And passing rich. with forty pounds q year.
| RemOt. from towns he ran his goodly race,
Nor ne'er had changed, nor wished to change
| his place;
Unskiliul he to iawn or seek for power.
| by doctrines fashioned to the varying hour;
For anus his heart had learned prize,
More bent to raise the wretched than TO rise.
His house was known to all the vagrant train,
He chId their wanderings, Dut relieved the
The long remembered beggar was his guest,
| Whose beard descending swept his aged breast
] he ruined spendthrift, now no longer proud
Claimed kindred there, and had his cialme
| allow'd.
The broken soldier, kindly bado to stay,
Sat by his fire, and talked the night away.
ShOulier,d his crutch, and shOw'd how field
were WOn,'
, Pleased with his guests, the good man learn

t And quite forgot their vcrs In their woe;
e | Careless their merits or their faults to scan
+, Ills pity gave ere charity began.
