The census statistics relating to 44 id”, occupations show some significant. r suits as to the employment of women md children. The whole number of fe males re|M>rted as piirsning gainful occu- p.itionrf in the United States in 1870 was 1,836,288. In 1880 the number was 2.647,157, showing an increase during the ten years of 810,860. This result shows that the numlier of females en gaged in occupations has increased at a much higher rate than the female poi il lation, and also at a higher rate than the number of males pursuing occupations. It further appears that the rate of iu- .-rease in the number of females .piusu ing occupations has lieen far higher in manufacturing and mechanical industries —that is, in factories -chiefly—than in any other kind of “employment. Similar results are shown by the cen sus statistics with reference to the em ployment of children. In 1870 the whole number between ten and fifteen years of age reported as pursuing gain ful occupations was 739,164. In 1880 the number was 1,118,356, or an increase during the decade of 379,192. The rate of this increase was greater than the rate >f increase in the population between I hose ages, aud it was also greater than the rate of increase in the number of idults pursuing gainful occupations. As in the case of women, so in the case of , children, the rate of increase in the •7hmtssf 'etoployed has been greatest in factorii s.

I realized in a moment that if the Democrats should nominate Gen eral Grant, .and he should accept the nomination, they would undoubtedly elect their candidate, Ier the General was then probably the most popular man iu the Country, and could be elected no matter whose candidate he might be. As I thought the matter over I was im pressed more and more strongly that the Democrats had this end in view. “Not long after this I met Erastus Coming on the street Mr. Coming was evidently feeling very well satisfied about something; He said to toe: " ‘Well, Weed, what are your people going to do for a Presidential candidate next time ?’ -7^ “ ‘Oh, I dd not know yet what we shall do. There is plenty of time for attending to that, and the Republican party does not lack eligible men,’ I an swered. “ ‘Well,’ said Corning, ‘you had tetter put on the strongest man yon have, or we shall beat you pretty badly—in fact, 1 think we shall do that at any rate.’ “’“‘Then I felt moderately confident that the Democrats -hod decided upon Dominating General Grant as their can didate; but if any doubt of this lingered in my mind it was effectually dispelled, an hour later, by a few moments’ con versation I had with Dean Richmond. After some talk npon general matters, I said to him: — : ~ : — 44 ‘Coming tells me you expect to bring out a pretty strong candidate for the Presidency some of these days, End that yon actually expect to elect hita.’ “ ‘Did Corning tell you who it was ?’ asked Richmond, rather anxiously, with a distracted expression, 44 "No; only he said that you have de cided npon a very strong man. ’ 44 4 Oh, well,’ responded "Richmond, iComing talks too much — altogethef too much, and he doesn’t know what he is talking ateut half the time 1’ “That completely satisfied me; and then I began to consider if we oould not do something to head off this contem plated movement of the Democrats. I felt pretty sure that Richmond and his friends had very lately conceived this idea of nominating General Grant, and had not likely gone so far as to send him any communication upon the subject. It then occurred to me that if the Republicans oould see General Grant first we might effectnally beat the Demorats in thiaq^rticular scheme. With that end in view, ftool^ the first train for New York, arriving iiLJthe city -late in the afternoon. As soon as pos sible I saw Abraham Wakeman, Sheridan Shook, Thomas Murphy, John Kelly, Owen W. Brennan, William A. Darling, Hngh Gardner, Dr. Van Wyck, and some more of my staunch Republican : r riends—all representative men in the !>arty—aud we met together, organized and held a meeting that some evening at the As tor House, in the old Room No. 11, where so many political movements were planned in those days. At this meeting I explained What I and suggested that we might capture the General for onr own ticket by a flank movement, as it were—by seeing him at nute, asking him if he would accept the icmination from the Republican party, jf ondered, and theta, in esse we received a itisfactory answer—M I hod no doubt ** should if w» worn tipw-wt might “That afternoon Thomas Mnrphy ( afterward appointed by President Grant Collector of the Port of New York) came down With a full account of the proceed* ings of oUr meeting, and an ‘official’ message from the committee* General Grant seemed Very much pleased with our aettoh, and formally Consented to become a Candidate for the nomination at the hands of the Republican party. So oUr mission Was accomplished. The next morning the report that General Grant had Committed himself to the Re publicans spread consternation in the ttlimlfl df the Democrats, who had al ready come to regard the General as their own future candidate. The hope that they had placed in 4 a strong man’ was now completely turned against them. “Some time after this I met Rich mond, and he confessed to me that the Democrats had l>een outwitted and their thunder had been stolen almost at the last moment, for he had no doubt but that, in three or four days more, Grant would have been pledged as a prospec tive Democratic candidate. “The rest is history—how, in the Re publican National Convention held in Chicago, in 1868, Grant was unanimous ly nominated upon the first ballot, there being no opposition whatever. And from that time the-ftepublican party has t>een in powetr-as the result, in the first place, of our having beaten the Demo crats in securing the consent of General Grant to accept the nomination.”— Mr. Weed told the story with the’’en joyment of on old soldier relating the incidents of a raid within the enemy’s lines.

After a few days the corpse-bearers return, and, collecting the lionee, which are then jierfeetly dried, place them in the central well, forty-five feet wide, where they remain to be de composed by the air aud the rain. The moisture runs off into the ground throngh filters of charcoal and sand, and leaves nothing of the human body in the in side of the tower, but the dry, crumbling bones. Underground Rom Shops.
