The following ib from the Phfiauel phia eorreapoudcut of tho AT. J'. tier alii: In passing through tho Central Po lice Office this morning as usuul, your correspondent noticed the captain of the detective ferce engaged iu earnest conversation with a bright und iutelli j gent little boy. There was somethieg so earnest and siucerc in the little fel low's countenanco and a grace so re uuirkablc in his every movement that instinctively I paused to take a second look at him. The face was diinty and ovul, tho eyes full and sparkling, the nose Grecian, the lips full and delicate 1 [ ly moulded and the forehead crowned with a wealth of coal black hair. *A' little Italian lad,' I thought to myself; 'tho fair serf of some cruel and heartless padrone caught plying an illegal o< oup i titui uj on the Btiecl and brought before a justice to explain* 'Let me tell you,' said oflicor Lsvy. ?I made her arrest this morning; found her away up in the uitie of :i shooting gallery on Cbesnut street. Sho was erauched behind a partition like a lit tfoanimal. I broHghi her from the Mrooting gallery to the office. She put her bunds in her pockets walked, quietly by my side laugbiug and chat ting morriely as ? -sprite, and arousing in the pedestrians hurrying along not the slightest suspicion of her sex. I tell, you she >is true and as bright as a dollar. Co in and talk to her.7 WIE I/ITTLE WOMAN ACCOUNTS FOR IIBit ?W\S?, is nhmc?'

'In Keysville, Charlotte county, Virgin iu,' sho re plied. ??Why did you leave your home ? Tell me all about yourscll,' I wcut on? * About your ps.neBts, your age your liio aed your condition.' . tier answer was plain, straightfor ward aud frank, bright, honest and hu niorous. 1 give it in her exact words. 'My parents are German and thoy are very old, they, aro also vejy poor, it was as much asthcy*could do to sup ? port themselves. Often I havo looked upon my poor mother and pitied her, she was so eld and her family so large to keep. 1 am only sixteen. One day I thought I could ussist my mother by going out in the world and working for myself. I told her all my thoughts, and she said that I might go. She kissed me when I went away aud told me uev er to forgot that 1 was a lady and t tint she was my mother. I went to 11 ich mood, the couductor of the cars allow iog me to ride free. I there first put upon me tho clothes of a boy.' BREECH KD Foil PROTECTION. ?Why?' I asked. 'Well,' she answered 'modestly, I did not want to be insulted, and I (Thought a boy's outfit would protect mo better than a girl's. 1 just laughed when 1 put the clothes on, though,' sho con tinucd, smiling, 'because everywhere 1 placed my hands there soeuied to be a pocket. I wont to the captain of & steamer bound for Philadelphia, and, telling him how poor I was and how much 1 wanted to help my mother, 1 asked him if he would not let me pay my way to the North by working upon his vessil. Tho Captain was very kind, and told me I was to young to do work aud that ho would let mo ride just like a passenger. The Captaiu never droam cd that I was a little girl. Ho never suspected it I never told him; ho dues not know it yet. All were generous nnd good to me on tho steamboat; no one ever spoke an unkind word. I ar rived hero about January. I was idle for some weeks and found it so hard to live. By and by I went to tho shooting gallery* aud ho gavo me a place. I have beon there until to day. No one ever suspeolcd my being a girl; no one ever insulted nie. The' proprietor himself did not knovr of my sex until this morn ing when the officer came. I learned to shoot firtt rate. I hit tho centre of the target ten times, once one right after the ether. One day a great big Irian came in the gallerly arid he was drunk He shot many titnos and then would not pay t knado him pay, nnd then he bogau to swear One of tho people thou opStfo'd the door I- just put all my strength against him and pushed him right out.

If a person docs right they will never suffer. My boy's clothes kept me from insult, and no one e\er ioui d me out. I have always scut my mother money?just as much as L couid spare. Ask th? Chief of Police if he will not let mc write a letter to my mother now. I want to so much. She will be worried abotn ber little girl.' ' Such was the story ISertie told me. The police oro.-S- ^icstionod her and found in her statements no discrepnnees or contradiction*. Her idenity was dis covered by a party residing near her home, who informed tho police, and bi ought about her arrest. ?Oi lady came to see tho little w.-iif, iwd'.-interviewed .her -nioue *Whou she1 eaine out ibo pronoun ed Durtlc a ?brougham! perfect little lady, whose truth, simcrity and virtue unhid n >t. be doubted. 1 ii huifau ho ir Mortie been me a erent favorite.

The police are doing all iu their power to reuder her comfortable, and have communicated with her p.irunts, telling them that no haim has befallen or will befall her. Ilic Virginia Waif. The Little Gnu. in Breeches an Deject of Cheat Curidsity '.n Piiit.ADEt.vnTA?A Great M?nv Pkhsons Sending Money and Offers of Support. Phii.adei.i'iiia, March 5, 1S74. The sketch of.Bertis vV inkier, wliieh appeared in the Herald of to day aroused no little interest in the community,and created in her behalf no small amount of sympathy and regard. The story of this little waif, who e t her ho; e -imply lo relieve the duties of an aged mother ; who drmed herself in male attire simply because she felt that she could I better support herself, end protect to a f illcr'extont her position and horvtrturo, the purity of which a as identified with every stngo of her career; and the bright besa and good nature which glimmered through ber character, were ull so pure and sterling, and graced hero and there with 80,111 lieh poetry and romance, that the plain, unmiihollishcd statement ol this same found its way directly to the hearts of the people, and brought to the central headquarters of the po?co a great many contributions for her sup port. All at once every one seemed to feel a personal interest iu the girl, and dozens upon dozens have called to see her during the day. Each one who made a visit loft something behind, and ia counting the monoy placed in his hands to buy her an outfit, Captain Heine, at noon to-day, found that ho had seventy-five dollars. : T?Uow did you fare last night ?" I asked this morning. "Oh, very Will," she anwo|d. "I went home with the captain, hyi a nice supper, a splendid warm baih and a good sleep. I hid been ma T'oxoitcd during the day and didn't jt$pect to sleep much, I thought'that I/would bo troubled with dreams, but T wjjruot. I did not owakc until nbout eight o'clock this morning.

Then niter this I went to the barber's ai d had it out shorter still." During the day many letters have been received from disinterested pai;ies praising Dertie for her spirit aud hero ism, and offering her a good home. "1 am sure you are a good and generous girl," said one letter from a lady, ad dressed to Bertie hersr-'f, nud if you will come to my Iiouf? 1 will do all 1 can for you."

Having raised nearly all the loud iug j varieties of ducks fur the last six or j eight years, aud iu very limite I acuom modulious, perhaps I can make plain my nicth.d to all interested. A great j deal has been written about the iinpor j tance of large pond or stream iu raising ducks, and the folly of keeping them j without such water. Iu my own case I have proved by experience that a tub or pail kept full is all that is necessary to real ducks with perfect success. 1 have won numberless prize* upon ducks, , which have never been in water since they were hatched. With regard to the duck hoi sc, many standard works on poultry advise a grouud or brick floor iu preference to one of plank. 1 havo tried all three plans, and find that the ground or brick floor in a duck house will bring on paralysis, rheumatism uud many other complaints. 1 have the floor of my house made of inch plank, ruiscd ouo foot or more from the ground, on stone piers, thus advoiding nil dampness. This plan, also, enables a terrier to "elettu out" the rats, which would otherwise burrow under the building. Iwirge-W i n d o w s Uro placed on tho south, the doors open ing under such windows, opening to i small "run," or "w oldie." In winter the floor is covered with a thin bedding, of buy?in summer with saw-dust, which, being an excellent itbsuibont, renders the air at all times sweet and pure. When the bedding becomes foul it is swept out and the floor washed with Kot wafer. I raise the Hollen, Crested Cuban, Musk, and common breeds, each, of course, having a sopiir urte apartment?that of the Musks being provided with rooming poles. The best egg-producing food is another important point in raising any variety of ducks. After buying every kind of ' grain, I have found that oats will produco large number* of eggs where all other food has failed. Tho best way to feed o:.ts is in a pail oi' water ; the exercise given the ducks by feeding in this way will keep them in perfect health. With this treatment my Miisk ducks weigh, whon grown, viz : males twelve and one half to fourteen pounds, females nine pounds. My pri o dtpoks ut the Connecticut show in 1869; 1870 arid' 1872, -weighed a tritio'Wr the above' estimate. Different breeds of ducks vary in the time of incubation, Rouen, Cnyaugn, Ayelsbury, and com uion duck egg's hatching- in four weeks, while those of Musk (improperly eallod Muscovy) take five weeks. Tlioir eggs should generally be set under hens, artd Brahmas nre best for this purpose, being more steady setters and better mothers The first food for ducklings when hatch ed, should be the yolk of a hard boiled egir, and when a week old oabm?al is exeellont for thotn. When young, they should bo cooped up until the sbn is up, on account of* the wet grass, which chills and ruins m ore young f?wls of all kinds than any other cause. ? When, throe or four weeks ' old, they may be liberated with tho riiother and they will soou learn to go with old ducks.' Duck* lings should never be housed at night with the old ducks, as they ure liable to persecution from them.. With this care I have had great success, aud doubt not that others will have thesama. [b\ W. JJ., in Ohio Fanmr. Tho Condensed .Milk Man. Cail Borden, the "Condensed Milk" man, died in Colorado county, Texas, on Sunday, January 11th, in the seveuty third year of his age. Mr. Borden Grst came to New York from Galveston, Texas. Tu lSr>0 he iu vented what is called meat biscuits, containing in the smallest possible space, all the nutritive ol the beef or other meat used in its manufacture. After thorough tests', both iu this couutry aud Europe, the highest authorities pronounced the "meat biscuit" an excellent article, ro tatning unimpaired the nutritive proper tics of its constituents. A council medal was awarded at the great exhibition at London in 1851. Tho report on tho subject says: ;*A more simple economi cal and efficient form of.portable con centrated food than tin: A mencau meat biscuit, lias never been brought bef.?re the utiblic. Mr. Borden toiled ire ;s .?antly, ami often under great discourage incuts, iu producing Umk article, but he .?tili saw a defect in it, which was the Hgeiicy used in dedication After further xporimenfs for several years, he perfected a pro -ess by which pure bro h is relUecd to a solid form. He next turned his attention to making conden sed milk. Preparations of milk were known in Europe ami in this country, but they were too co-.tly to admit of general u-o, und moreover, foreign sub stances were introduced which were less nutritive than now milk. Mr. Borden was the u an to overcome all obstacles in this matter, and he set to work with great zeal aud confidence. Iliscxperi incuts were long and expensive, but he at length succeeded. The first factory which he established was it Litchlicld, Connecticut, and the demand for the milk still increased. Iu 1860 mere extensive works were erected iu Duchess county, New York, on the line of the llnrlem Railroad, where three vacuum pans wer? employed, capable of working 5000 gallons per day. Another factory was established at Brewsier's. Southeast, Putnam county, another at I.ivormore If alls, Me., and another at Elgin Kane county, Illinois. The two latter having each a capacity of 2000 gallons per day. At the latter place there is also a factory for the manufacture of extract of beef. A Disheartened Insurance Agent. A family named' Komper moved into a house io our ro'w'hi.st week, writes Max Adtl-r, and lleiljamin P. G mm, tho life insurance agent, who lives in tho same ro\vjw'ts the first caller.

"No," raid Mrs. Kemper. "Well, I'd like to get him to takoout a policy iu oui company. It's the safest in the World ; the largest capital, smallest rates and biggest dividends." "Mr. Kemper don't take much inter est ii such things dovv," said Mn K.

He saw a girl named Sparks tumble in the river the other day off a boat, and ho instantly plunged in after her, caught her by the dross aud swam to the shore with her. As soon an they wero on dry land Miss Spuiks gave a hysterical scream, flung her arm arouud Bottlebnry's neck and fainted. Just then the father came up with the rest of the family, and perceiv ing the situation, he dashed up to Hottlcbury, grasp d his hand and said, "Take her, my boy, take her ! It is. hard to give her up ! It wrenches hor obi father's heart; but she is yours. Ulms you, my children, bless you I" Then Mrs. Sparkd cried, aud she said she hoped Harriet would be happy. The .Sparks manifested their cmotiou* by climbing up Uottlcbury's legs aud pulling his coat tula, while:Harriet come to, and laying her bend on Uottle bury's shoulder aud whispered : "Kiss me, darling." Uuttlebury umazed and indignant, tore himself awuy and fled. He was arrested that afternoon on a charge of breach of promise ; and on trial tho jury gave Miss Sparks two hundred dollars damages. Bottlebury has intimated to his confidential friends that if any other woman intends to fall overboard uoar him, she will find it tu her udvantage to L-arn to swim firat.? Mux Adrhr.
