Hawkins bought 400 negroes and had
a narrow escape from losing them ow-

near the equator. But. as he piously
recorded in his log. ''The Almighty God

Is called the compass plant, which is
of great value TO travellers. The long
leaves mt the base Of its stem are placed.
not nat, as in plants generally. but in
vertical POSITION, and present their
edges north and south. The peculiar
propensity of the plant is attributed TO
the fact that both surfaces Of its leaves
display an equal recephvity for light.
whereas the upper surfaces of the
leaves of most plants are mere sensi
tive to light than the lower The leaves
thus assume a vertical position and
point north and south. Travellers on
dark nights are said to feel the edges
of the leaves to ascertain the point OF
the compass.

1t may seem strange That women
have preferences for particular ages.
An inspection Of tile census, however,
leaves no room for doubt that certain
years are preferred and certain other
years dislikeG by the members of the
gentler sex.

the number Of boys is nearly 100000
greater than the number of girls: Mt
fifteen the boys are still 5000 ahead OF
The girls; at sixteen the girls are 6,000
the more numerous, aud each year
thereafter until the twenty-fourt5
there is an excess of women over men
The favorite ages withip these limits
are eighteen aud twenty. There are a.
GOO more misses Of eighteen than there
are boys Of that age. and the young
ladies twenty years old exceed their
masculine companions By $1,000. At
twenty-four and twenty-five the num-
oeTs OF the two sexes are nearly equal.
Then the women begin 10 grow less
with great rapidity. The most unpop-
ular ages are thirty and forty. AT tie
former age there is a difference of 49,
GOO between the two sexes; Mt the latter
$1,000.
One peculiar circumstance is thas
there are more women twenty years
old than there are girls of thirteen or
fourteen or any age up to twenty.
This fact conclusively demonstrates
that twenty is n very healthful age.
But II the younger ages are unhealthy,
where did the increased number who
