PorcLaTion oF NEw YoRK AND PHILADELPHIA. ‘The Philadelphia U.S. Gazette claims that Phil- adelphia has steadily gained on New York in ulation, although the latter had larger capital Toa larger ¢ commerce. In five years New York bas advanced from 516,000 to 800,000, cainud by her papers, with a gain of 55 per cent. indeed, is all that they can claim. For it isc ing a greater ratio of increase for the last five years of hard times, and a vastly lessened immi- gration, than for the previous five years of good times, with a ceaseless stream of foreigners. Philadelphia has, in the same time, gone on from 405,000 to 650,000—as stated by those who have ally canvassed it throughout—making a gain cf 67 per cent. 1 The question who was the first white child born in Cincinnati seems likely to barrass that city. The other day we published a line to the effect that one Wm. Taylor claimed that honor, in de- fiance of a woman who had given herself out as the original infant. but now the Sergeant-at-Arms of the tity Councils puts in an earlier record of his own birth. So, till further notice, William Moodie is the connecting link between the un- cleared past and the civilized present. {7 Something ought to be done to prevent people from giving vent to their grief in verse when they are bereaved. What fate too hard for the man who appended the following lines to the announcement of a young lady’s death ina neigh- boring city? “* A few weeks ago she was to be a bride, But now the grave her lovely form doth hide.” IF Out in Ohio they have a lady drummer, who has received a diploma for her skill. Her name is Minerva Patterson, a daughter of Major Elisha Patterson, a wealthy farmer of Jersey, Licking county. The Major has organizeda band, consisting wholly of his children Two of his zirls play the drums, and the band is said to be one of the best in the State. UF A soldier recently died in Washington ‘Territory under peculiar circumstances. A post- mortem examination disclosed the fact that death was caused by poison, in the form of oxalic acid, taken while eating strawberries from metal cans, wherein they generally come inclosed. The poison had formed from the acidity of the fruit coming in contact with the metal i[7~A girl in Burlington, lowa, anticipating a fever and ague chill, woked largea dose of mee phine as to make her crazy; she forbade her em- ployer from coming into his own house, and then sbe ran away and was gonea number of hours until the effect of the quinine worked off. 0 A southern paper, in regretfully stating that the wife of an eminent citizen had met a fatal accident, says she ‘‘inadvertently fell from a window.” Inasmuch as people usually take especial pains to fall out of, windows, the phrase is a happy one. i7-On Sunday a small army of pick entered “St. Joseph’s Cathedral, is nffalo, and picked a variety of pockets. ‘Four of them were taken into custedy, but one of them es- eaped, and it is supposed’ he carried off most of the booty. Fa In a convention of females we have no doubt but whatever ‘oted upon is always car- ried bya “handsome majority. kets ARRIVALS AT THE HOTELS. WILLARDS’ HOTEL—C Van ham, K. H Bennett.
