Curiosities of the Census.

The census returns give a very in
teresting picture of the relative den
sity of population in the great cities
OF this country and abroad. Taking
the average, Chicago has only thirteen
inhabitants to each acre of ground.
People are much more crowded in
New York, 81 of them being packed
into each acre. But in Paris there
are 1852 persons to each acre. and
Berlin stands at the head of the list
OF European cities with 255 individ-
ais per acre.
1t seems ralher curious to learn
that New York averages eighteen
people for each dwelling, whereas
London figures out only eight persons
for each house. This is because
London is very much spread out, and
most of the dwellings are small. In
Paris, where the houses are mostly
big and the people live in flats, the
average is 27 for each house, and in
Berlin, for a like reason it is 81.
No other city in this country has
SO large graveyard area as New
York, it's 80 cemeteries containing at
present the remains of ,36S, ,672 dead
people.

Child Marriages.

In former days child marriages
were not uncommon in England,
their object generally being to unite
property. The youngest English
bride on record is beyond all doubt
daughter of Sir William Brereton,
who, in the 10th century, was united
in the bonds of holy matrimony when
only two years of age, to a BRIDE
groom who was her senior by only
one year. In this case the children
were carried into church, and their
elders spoke for them. subsequently,
when the pair reached years of ma
turity they ratified the strange tie.
In 1862. Randle Moore was married
at the age OF eight years to bride
two years his senior, and about the
same time Emma Talbot, six years
ofage, had five year old husband pro-
vided for her in the person of Gilbert
Gerard. In this case the bridegroom IS
uncle held him up and spoke the
marriage words for him, while the
bride answered for herself as she had
been taught Wdverly.

Decoctions or extracts Of the wood or
bark Of trees are frequently used for
flavoring sirups or sugars. Different
extracts differ in taste. The hickory
tree, it is said, yields an extract that will
impart the flavor of the maple, and
Daily's method of producing artificial
maple sirup Of sugar is as follows:
Make an extract Of hickory bark or
wood by allowing water to percolate
through the same. The bark or wood
may be ground, or sawdust therefrom
used. Hot water may be used, or the
material boiled in water. The strength
of the extract may be increased by in
crease of the quantity of the wood or
bark. To one gallon of hot or boiling
sugar sirup add, say, three tablespoon
fuls of the hickory extract. 1t is said
the effect OF the extract is to produce q
flavor that renders the sirup indistin-
guishable from genuine maple sugar. If
the sirup is boiled down, sugar re-
sembling maple sugar in taste is pro-
duced.--London Public Opinion
