COMPARATIVE VITALITY OF CHILDREN
Invest cations made in Germany concerning
the comparative vitality of children under
various methods Of feeding exhibit some Pc
culiar results. Thus, Of 100 children nursed
by their mothers only 1872 died during the
first year Of those nursed by wet nurses,
29.33 died of those artifcially fed, 60 died /;
and of those brought up in institutions, so
died to the 100. Again. taking 1000 we'll
to-do persons and | 900 poor persons, there
remained of the prosperous, after five years,
943, while of the poor only Cos remained
alive; after fifty years there remained of the
prosperous 557, and only 283 of the poor at
seventy years of age there remained of the
prosperous 235, and but 90 of the poor.
The total average length of life among the
well-of class was found to be fifty years, as
against thirty Two among the poor.

stood Llsbeth, her face all aglow with anx-

quite pretty in her blue merno. the neck

lace, and her auburn curls streaming over
her shoulders like waves of sunshine. Ii
might have been consciousness of her own
fresh loyeliness that brought the rose-fush
TO her cheeks, and made her pause once IN a
while before the little oval mirror, TO assure
herself that Simeon's gold chain was all
right, with the clasp just in front. 1t might

: FEELIN8 HURRIED.

Probably nothing tires one so much as
feeling hurried. When in the early
morning the days affairs press on ones
attention beforehand, and there comes
the wonder how in the world every
thing is to be accomplished; when ev-
cry interruption is received Impatient
ly, and the clock is watched in distress
as its moments fit past, then the mind
tires the body. We are wrong to drive
ourselves with whip and spur in this
way. Each of US is promised strength
for the day, and we must not wear our
selves out by crowding two days task
into one. II only we can keep cool and
calm, not allowing ourselves to be flus-
tered, we shall be less wearied when
we have reached the eventide. The
children may be fractions, the servants
trying, the friend we love fail to visit
US, the letter we expect may not ar
rive, but If we can preserve our tram
guilty of soul and of demeanor we
shall get through everything creditably.

THE NEW YORK SUN-I.OR 1852.

THE Sun for 1882 will make its fifteenth

womankind of every sort; but it's genial
discomfort on the clustering backs of the
persistently wicked.
The Sun of !sGs was a newspaper of a
new kind. 1t discarded many of the FORMS
and 4 multitude of the superfluous words
and phrases of ancient journalism. It UNI
conventional way all the news of the world,
omitting no event Of human interest, and

this experiment was tho success of The

it better than ever before.
We shall print all the news, putting it
portance. not by tho traditionalIyar stick,
but by it's real interest to tho people.
In politics we have decided Opinions; and
are accustomed to express them in lam
guage that can be understood. We say
what we think about men and events. That
habit is the only secret of The SUMS politi-
cal course.
The Weekly Sun gathers into eight pages
the best matter Of the seven daily issues.
An Agricultural Department of unequalled
merit, full market reports, and a liberal
proportion Of literary, scientific and do
lnestic intelligent complete The Weekly

farmers household that was ever printed.

twenty.eight columns the price by mail,

BUDDING.

With a sharp knife, make a clean
cross-cut through the bark to the sap
wood. Starting from the middle OF
this cross cut, make another cut down
ward-this is, with the grain of the
bark-forming, with the first, two right
angles. Select plump buds from
branches of this seasons growth, and
cut them OF as smoothly as possible in
. shield form. The petiole or leaf
stalk may be left, so that, with less liza
bility Of injury to the bud, it may be
pressed down between the bark and
wood until f1tted in its proper position
Should the top of the shield prelude
above the cross, cut off even Herewith.
Then bind with yarn, or any other PHI
able substance, above and below the
bud to hold it firmly in its place and
to exclude the air. July and August
are the months for this climate, during
which the operation of budding is
most successfully performed, and the
best time Is that when the bark parts
most freely from the wood. This is
easily ascertained by experimenting
every day or SO, as the probable time
draws near, upon twigs of the kinds of
plants upon which we wish to bud.

EXTRAORDINARY SWIMMING.
New York SUM-

Prof. Marquis Bibber0 yesterday
accomplished the feat ofswimming the
East River with his hands tied behind
swimmer had made two previous at
tempts, on May 81 and June IL, in each
of which he had failed, the tide proving
too strong for him. The terms of the
wager were that the start should be made
within fifty yards of the pier heads on
distance Of the piers on the other side.
At II o'clock yesterday forenoon
Bibbero, in company with Charles
Shearer, the referee and Thomas Coady,
a boatman, appeared off the end of
JEWELS wharf, Brooklyn. After get
ting into a boat, Bibbero threw off his
coat and had his feet bound and his
wrists tied behind him. At 10 minutes
| past II he was thrown overheard. He
came quickly to the surface and began
! to work his way toward the New York
shore. He lay on his right side, with
only his face out of the water. Head
way was made by drawing the knees
up as near the breast as possible and
and kicking violently backward. The
last of the flood tide was running, SO
that the swimmer was carried slowly
from JEWELS wharf under the great
bridge. Passing steamers churned up
the water and sent waves over Bibbero,
but he apparently was not affected in the
least by rough water. The accompany
ing boat kept within an oars length,
ready to give assistance. By 1870 tho
centre of the bridge was arrived at, when
Bibbero salutcd the workmen with a
CHEEKY. "IIelloo, boys" Several tow
boats and bargcs turned out of their
| course, and theferry boats playing back
and forth at this point gave the daring
| swimmer all the room possible. When
| the ferry boat Garden City came along,
| it was alternately head and heels up
with Bibbero, but he once more got his
bearings and continued on nanfully
for the shore. At 1l:2S he was on a line
with the head of the New York pier of
the bridge, but north Oft, about opposite
the centre of the Roosevelt street ferry
SIP. IL Was lAlSIlu6u lIuC Tie sip
should be made, but departing steamre
rendered it necessary to take Bibbero
out when within ten yards of the mid
die of the slip, fully twenty yards with
in the line necessary to be made to
win the wager. The time was 80 min
utes. The distance is about $500 feet.
Bibbero's hands and feet were loosed,
and he clambered aboard without as
sistance and was rowcd back to the
pier just south of Fulton Ferry. By this
feat, Bibbero won for Richard X. Fox,
his hacker, $3.50, of which 500 was
given to the swimmer.
Bibbero announces himself willing to
swim Capt. Webb or any other swim
mer for $500 a side, the person accept
ing his challenge to name the style of
swimming, or he will wager 81 200 that
he can swim ten out of every twelve
hours for six days.

1t is said that there is a town in
Missouri called Liberal, where believ-
ers In Christianity can not buy land.
The founder Is an Atheistic lawyer
named Walser, who has gathered a
population of about three hundred inf
deis around him. We apprehend that
the people of that town will not have
much trouble in keeping believers in
Christianity out of it.
