ING IflOu>HNTS. - The .-other dav, I waa parting^ Washington' square, and' notic? ing upon ibo block of beautiful ' build? ings o wutul by the Seaman's Fan cl','the sign of tho "Foundling Hospital," I m ou nt od the whitq marble stoop, and very speedily found' myself in the pre? sence'of Sister Irene, tho beantifnl-faced Sister of Charity who was the first grand cause of thia noble institution. They haye ander their oharge at the present time 400 little waifs. Although it waa not the regular visiting day, and Sister Irena said the babies didn't look at their beet as they do on a visiting "Tuesday," still I was permitted to go over the pre? mises. Suoh a nice, jolly set of babies ?oa couldn't find anywhere clso in the tatted States. Nicely and prettily dressed, carefully washed and combed, green boots and bronze boots on the little trot-arounds, neat pink and blue and buff chintz frocks, white aprons or Marseilles bibs on others. Several new? comers on this troubled earth were wrapped in squares of flannel. I asked ?artioularly about the small Richard the 'hird, who had just come in un the occa nion of a visit I made the Sisters nearly a year ago-a strange, red little ruffian of twenty-four hours' existence, witb four well-out teeth to his mouth. I pre dioted for him an oventful career, ovi dontly bogun already. Sure enough Riobard was not destined to gnash bb teeth long in "The Foundling," for th< father, a young Frouohman, finding thi disposition made of his offspring by it unfortunate girl-mother, reconsid?r?e previous determinations, got properly married, und applied to Sister Irene, re covered tho infant and set np house keeping with it, and, as the fairy tale end, hos lived happy ever since A fea turo of this Foundling Asylum is th shelter it affords to the mother. Ii every case, when they oan, the mo the is rescued with the child. If she is phy mcally able, sho nurses another bab with her own, and thus pays her board but if she is delioate and unable to nu rs uuy other child but her own, she sew oud minds tho growing children. It was only tho night boforo I wa there, that tho sister sat on watch in th hall. Twelve o'clock had sounded, on tho quiet of the street was uubrokei The lamps in the Washington parad ground, opposite the asylum, winked t tho stars in the wintry sky, when up th steps, with ohl such a heavy heart, sinl ing lower and lower as she entered tb door, came a weary, betrayed, miserab womuu, bearing, as sho supposed, fe tho lust time on earth, tho little fon which, if it was her shame, was also tl only bit of bunnin love her wretch f life had loft. Without home or friend sho had determined her child, ut leas should be rescued from tho pangs si was even then suffering. Within tho padded wicker basket si laid the little waif, with a long Ungarie mother's kiss on its sleeping face, ai palled the bell and fled with her wrote edncss, more awful in this parting, the shadow of a tree opposite. Grouc ing there, sho waited with a bcatii heart to pee her lono darling taken in comfort and care, leaving her to etorr desolation beneath the cruel wintry sk Not a found breaks the stillness of t night but the orisp leafless brandi softly creaking in the wind. The do of tho house she watches, through I blinding tears, slowly opens. Din she socs tho black shrouded figure 1 her child. Who shall describo tho ago of that moment? She feels that for 1 tho last glimpse of the little form como. When, Jiko tho voice of nu ong these words sweetly como upon tho cL night wind to her aching, straining ea tho black-robed figure that presses 1 child to her bosom thus speaks, hor fi toward Heaven: "Stay, poor moth Why do you desert your child? ] neath this roof thoro is shelter und fe for both. Listen; I beg you not to lei your little child-como yo also; you si nurse und bo with your littlo child til eau be safely left; then como to it wi you please, und take it to yourself wi you aro able" There's a cry of joy tho midnight air, as flying with ire bliug footsteps across the street, t poor rescued mother flings herself iq tho baby sho thought lost to her fure\ and falls ut tho same sister's feet.

In the angle between South Fork and Catawba, it was especi? ally severe. Mrs. Adam Hoffman, re? turning home, ran into a negro hat to escape the storm ; the house was upset killin&her and injuring a negro woman aevereip. The fences were swept entirely away in that neighborhood, and qaite a number of houses were destroyed. All the houses were blown down on the old Tommy McLean place. All the fences on the Northern part of William R. McLean's plantation were blown down. Dr. John MoLean had a horse killed by a falling tree; a negro riding the horse was not injured. Yoong John MoLean Was knocked off bis horse bat aot seri? ously hart. The storm crossed the Ca? tawba between Neal's Mills and Bock Island, and expended its fury in the blaok-jaok oountry about Daniel Gal? lant's. It destroyed all his out-buildings and unroofed his boase. The same thing happened on the place of Mr. Samuel W. Oro well. All the houses ex? cept the dwelling-house were destroyed on Mr. Robert Ross* place. The houees and fences were considerably injured on the places of Mr. John B. Grier andi others in that neighborhood. We learn ! that S. Wataou Reid was also a consider? able sufferer by the storm. At Neal's Mills, one ond of the house occupied by the miller waa blown down. No ouo hurt. At S. W. Crowell's, the top of the house was carried off to the floor, bedding aud olothing carried off ? so far that much of it has not been found. Thompson Neal, colored, had his roof taken off and out buildings destroyed. : At J. B. Grier's, tbe chimneys had the j tops knocked off. Several of the out? buildings were unroofed and otherwise badly damaged. Mr. Gallant suffered severely. All tho out-houses, gio, barn, smoko house, kitchen, etc., were thrown over. Tho chimney-tops wero knocked off the dwelling honso, aud it was partly unroofed. Mrs. Adda Peoples sustuined a good deal of damage. Tho top of oue chimney was thrown down. Capt. W. W.

Toombs, of Georgia, is one of the most gifted of all the erratic geuiuses that America has yet produced. Like Tom Marshall and Wm. Haskill, he is a natu? ral-born orator. Mr. Clay heard him make ono of his first political apoechoa at a mass meeting in Georgia, in 1810, and predicted for him then a brilliant future. It is related of Toombs, that, ou one occasion, iu tho trial of a very important case before a Georgia jury, he, by some strange absence of mind, got up and made a powerful speech against his client, who was the plaintiff iu the case. After he had spoken nearly an hour, aud was about to close, one of his associate counsel whispered in his ear thal he had made a mistake-that he had spoken ou the wrong side. For a momcut ouly, Toombs was perfectly dumbfounded, aud recovering imme? diately, he turned to tho court and jury, und said: "Now, may it please the court, and you, gentlemen of the jury, I have, lin my remarks hitherto, attempted to give you nil, aud tho vury best, too, that, can be said ou that sido of the case, aud though it may appear at first blush a very strong case, yet I am confident, if you will give mo your attention a little while longer, I will bo ablo to convince you that, after al), my clietit, the plain? tiff, is entitled to a verdict at your hands." Ho then proceeded to over? turn every position previously taken by him, exerting himself to tho uttermost of bis wounded ability to repair his mis tnke, and wouud up with an appeal to tho court aud jury so thrilling, that he carried them by storm und triumphantly gained tho case for his client.

Mich., lately, and was buried with Masonic ceremonies. Connected with Mr. Whipple's lifo is a sad history, which is thus briefly related: Twelve yours ago not n man in Michigan could seemingly look forward with brighter prospects, being in i.lllucnfc circum? stances, und a luwyor by profession, who stood among tho first in the State. But by intemperance, and exposure there? from, ho was attacked with tits, from the effects of which bo never recovered; bis miud constantly fading until he became helpless, uud hu was for tho past two or thieu years supportod by public charily. His wife, a bean tiffi and accomplished lady, became insano about the time of Mr. Whipple's sickness, and was sent to tba asylum at Kalamazoo, whore she re? mains, with no hopo of recovery. Four beautiful, bright, aud thus unhappy children are penniless, and scattered thus sud there, no two living together. It is seldom a family is thus overtaken and completely wrecked by misfortune. A cruel Connecticut lady keeps an osage orango plaut in her parlor, and. has recently mudo two fnll-blowu flowers) uud one half opened bud of white wax, und placed thom upon the barron plant. All her callers admire tho "sweet-smell? ing" f. nd, wbilu several gentlemen have observed that tho half-blown bud hus opened considerably eiuco they last culled.

BALTIMOBB MANUFACTURES-Ni NTH CENSUS.-Tho full returns whioh haye been prepared ia advance at the census 0 Qioo in Washington, make a very grati? fying exhibit ot oar manufacturing in? dustries at the period-1870-of gather? ing the material for the record. Tbe total capital represented to be invested at that time was $25,669.040. and the produot for the year was 858,865,266, the value of raw material consumed being $35,804,609, the wages paid $10,289,627, while the number of hands employed was 32,931, of whom 23,871 were males above sixteen years of age, 6,982 females above sixteon years, and 2,081 yootha. These general aggregates, derived from 2,760 establishments, are no criterion of what may be tbe capabilities of Balti? more as a manufacturing centre in the future, for there is no point in the coun? try which possesses greater advantages of power and resources to be applied in that direction. We are most convenient to the supplies of raw material necessary for the purpose. Cotton reaches us certainly more readily from the South than it does lae manufactories of the Nortb, and iron, lumber and ooal are 1 abundant within onr borders. The water power in the vicinity of Baltimore is also admirable, and in time, with the extended water works whioh are to bring into the city the superabundant supply from the Gunpowder, there will be, with a liberal polioy on the part of the water board to that end, sufficiency of the fluid to pat and keep in motion any number of the smaller and diversified manufac? tories, which so enlarge and enrich Phi? ladelphia. The failure of the Baltimore city delegation to give proper attention to and get passed at the late session of the Legislature the Act enabling the city to issao its bonds for entering upon the construction of the works for bringing in the abundant waters of the Gunpow? der may bo some drawback ia this regard for tho next few years.-Ballimore Sun. A BOOT-BLACK ADVENTURE.-Daringa slight lull, in business here, yesterday', two littlo boot-blacks, one white and one black, were standing at the corner of Second and Franois streets, doing no? thing, when the white boot-black agreed to black tho black boot-black's boots. The black boot-black was, of course, willing to have his boots blacked by. his fellow boot-black, and the boot-black who had agreed to black the boot-black's boots, weut to work. When the boot? black had blacked ono of the black boot? black's boots till it shone in a manner that would make any boot-black proud, this boot-black, who bad agreed to black the black boot-black's boots, refused to black the other boot of the black boot? black until the black boot-black, who had consented to have the white boot-1 black black his boots, should add ftvo cents to the amount the white booti black had made blacking other men's boots. This the boot-black, whose boot had boen blacked, refused to do, saying it was good ouough for a black boot? black to have one boot blacked, and he didn't care whether the boot that the boot-black hadn't blacked was blacked or not. This made tho boot-black, who had blacked the black boot-black's boot, angry as a boot-black often gets, and he vented his black wrath by spitting upon thc blacked boot of the black boot-black. This roused tho latent passions of the black boot-black, and he prooeeded to boot tho white boot-black with the boot which the whito boot-black had blacked. A fight thon ensued, in which tho white boot-black, who had refused to black tbe unblocked boot of the black boot-black, blacked tho black boot-black's viciocary | organ, and in which the black boot-black I woro all tho blacking off his blacked boot in booting tho white boot-black. | Tho fraternity of boot-blacks afterwards j convened and denounced the action of the whito and black boot-blacks as one ' of tho blackest in tho puges of boot? black history.

Tho Detroit Tribune says that tho Now York bill-posters plastered the walls of that city with "The Palace of Truth," several nights ago, nnd it was a day or two boforo tho Now Yorkers would be liovo it was tho advertisement of a play instead of on allusion to the Herald of? fice. Indian Agent Walker reports from Dakota that Red Cloud has buried tho botchet. He and his followers have dono that many times, but as it wos always buried in the brains of tho whites, tho interment has not been regarded as much of a peaoe measure. Hon.

Ho will biko tho ground that wo cannot reasonably insist on such damages under tho treaty. A minister who thought that report? ing sermons was all vanity, afterwards concluded that if the thing must be donn, it should bo well done, slipped a greenback into tho reporter's hand, say? ing: "Do not condenso me."
