According to an Ohio paper, a double child has been born to a couple
named FINLEY, in Morrow county. It is, so to speak, a double-ender,
being provided with a supplementary head at the point where the feet are
usually situated. The child is a female-and a very curious amendment to
the Sixteenth Amendment, since, should it arrive at woman's estate, it
will, of course, be entitled to a double vote. How will it be should one
end go Republican and the other Democratic? To send a duplex woman into
the world seems to be a very unnecessary freak of Nature, seeing that
there is enough of duplicity in womankind already.

Homoeopathic Politics.
THE CITIZENS' ASSOCIATION, finding that their sands of life are nearly
run out, are now advertising privately for some fresh candidates, who
for a salary will undertake to cure the ring-worms of the body politic
by their pimple prescription of substitution, or putting yourself in
their place, which is a political modification of the law in
homoeopathic medicine, _similie similibus errantur_, or in morals, "set
a rogue to catch a rogue."

| THE NEW STORE OF LORD & TAYLOR, |
| |
| Cor. of Broadway & Twentieth Street, New York. |
| |
| This superb building will be devoted to retail purposes, |
| where every description of dry-goods, from the necessary and |
| convenient to the most elegant and fashionable, will attract |
| a multitudinous throng, and add even a new attraction to the |
| brilliancy of Broadway in the most delightful part of the |
| thoroughfare. Besides an immense trade extending to all |
| parts of the United States, LORD & TAYLOR deal largely in |
| carpets and oil-cloths, in upholstery and house furnishing |
| goods, and especially in trousseaux, cloaks, and ladies' |
| furnishing goods of all kinds, in which, perhaps, their |
| business is heavier than that of any other house in the |
| city. The furnishing of hotels and steamboats is one of |
| their specialties. The headquarters of their wholesale trade |
| is at the old Broadway and Grand street store, while their |
| stock of carpets and oil-cloths is mainly limited to the |
| Grand and Chrystie street establishment. Since the |
| organization of the firm, five partners have retired with |
| fortunes, to make room for younger men, thus affording |
| opportunities for others to profit by the experience and |
| success of the house. These changes have also had the effect |
| to maintain the original vigor of the firm without detaching |
| from the maturity of judgment that has marked its |
| operations. Some idea of the magnitude of the business of |
| the house may be inferred from the fact that the pay-roll |
| contains the names of more than 1,000 persons. |
