LARGE FAMILIES.
Bonaparte Was One of Thirteen
Washinoton One of Eleven.

Washington One of Eleven.
A writer in the popular Science
Monthly. by consulting the biogra-
phies of 76 Of the most eminent men
whom the race has produced, finds
most Of them were members Of very
large families; that on the average
they had six brothers and sisters
apiece and that Thackeray, Robert
l.. Stevenson, John Ruskin and Alex
ander Hamilton were about the only
instances of notable single offspring
Horace WalpOle was one of 19 chill
dren, Benjamin Franklin one of II,
John Marshall one of IS. Peter the
Great one of IA, Napoleon Bonaparte
one of 13. Samuel Adams. Sir Walter
Scott. James Fenimore Cooper and
Alfred Tennyson members Of families
containing u. Lord Nelson and
Washington Irving members Of
families containing II. Washington,
Webster. Chase. Carlyle. Cromwell and
Henry George members Of families
containing H. Grover ClevelandS
father had nine children, and four
of his other ancestors, reaching back
in a straight line had families ranging
from 10 to 13 children-an un-
precedented record. Jefferson. Huxley
and Dickens were each one of eight
Martin Luther LOngfellOW, Bryant
and Paul Jones each one of seven.
This writer gives the facts and does
not attempt to theorize on them. be-
yond noting that the members OF large
families have been apt to show marx
ed firmnesS and independence-per-
haps because they were not coddled
and INDUCED by their parents, ana
even in childhood had to look out for
themselves. We shall initiate the mod
Grafton of the writer. and until his
suggestive but incomplete data nave
been further buttressed we content
ourselves with a single and perhaps
obvious explanation of his facts. The
bigger the family the more chance II
has Of producing an uncommon m
dividual. -
The father Of II sons has just II
times as many chances of seeing son
grow famous as the father of one. He
can have "a fool in the family, ana
even several of them, and still nave
a margin of good material TO draw
from in his patriotic hope of rearing
q future American president.

honor and distinction when, perhaps,
the highest point they could attain in
what was once the most honorable and
influential of all the learned profess
sions would be-the place Of attorney
to a bank" Qb., p. 116l
These extracts are mostly in the ma
ture of objections and criticisms de-
structive in their tendency We may
now try to lead in the direction of Cal
houn's constructive suggestion and
measures:
But. Mr. President, l am not driven
to such alternatives. | am not the en-
emv. but the friend of credit-not as
the substitute. but as the associate and
assistant of the metals. In that capac-
ity | hold credit to possess in many
respects vast superiority over the
metals themselves. l object to 1t in
the form which it has assumed in the
banking system for reasons that are
neither light nor few and that neither
have been nor can be answered. The
question is not whether credit can be
dispensed with. but what is its best
possible fOrm-the most stable, the
| least liable to abuse and the most con-
venient and cheap" Ub., p. 121O
1t is, then. my impression that in
the present condition Of the world a
paper currency in some form, If not
necessary. is almost Indispensable in
financial and commercial operations OF
civilized and extensive communities
In many respects it has a vast supe-
riority over Il metallic currency, espe-
cially in great and extended transac-
tionS by its greater cheapness, light
ness and the facility of determining the
amount. The great desideratiOn is tC
ascertain what description Of paper

$E' The Emperor of Austria belongs
throughout their lives never even suf-
fer from headache. The approach
of age is not visible. This miracle
may be explained by his manner of
life The emperor, who fomerly smok-
ed ten to fifteen strong Havana cigars
daily, now contents himself with two
light ones; he drinks daily about two
glasses of beer and some light wine;
he sleeps much, when great care is
taken that cold is avoided. His ma
ieSty has lost only three teeth.
