        Three young Chinamen, it is said, are soon to enter Harvard University.

        Chicago has been visited by five hundred and eighty @ since April 1st, 1869.

        Commander Edwards, who surveyed a route across the lusthmus of Darien for a ship canal in 1854, writes to the london Standard, exulting in the resumption of the project, and expresses his belief in its perfect feasibility.

        The Largest Organ in World.- The largest organ in the world will be the organ now building by Willis for the Hall of Arts and Science, South Kensington. It will have 111 sounding stops, independent of 14 couplers.

        The longest agony about the distribution if the $100,000 appropriated for the capture of Jefferson Davis is at last over. The third auditor of the treasury has made out a report, which has been divided among 240 claimants.

        By the latest count, House of Lords consists of 474 members-of whom four are princes of the blood, three archbishops, 27 dukes, 32 marquises, 167 earls, 36 viscounts, 27 bishops, and 177 barons. The new representative peer for Ireland remains to be classed. The total number is more then ten at the opening of the session of 1869.

        Sir Henry Rawlixson, The distinguished archaeologist, maintains the babylon is the site of the Garden of Eden, and that the Babylonian documents now extant give an exact geographical description of the scene of "man's first disobedience."

        Long Row.-The Pennsylvania central Railroad Copany owns four hundred locomotives and seven thousand cars, which, if placed in line, would extend a distance of seventy-two miles. This Company owns for controls seventeen hundred and sixty-nine miles of railroad.

        The whaling shipTrue Love, now hailing from Hull, Eng., is said to be the oldest vessel afloat, having been built in Philadelphia, in the year 1764. Owing to a peculiarity in her model, she has several times squeezed by the ice, on occasions when other vessels were destroyed, risen up on the surface and rested there till danger was over. she has made eighty voyages to Artic seas and is still around.

        Small Houses Wanted.- There is an unusual demand for small houses in New York. Many find they cannot stand the rents they have bone paying, and are looking for smaller and cheaper houses. Those renting for $1000, $1200, $1500 are very scarce, and the demand is far in exess of the supply.

        For The Soldiers.- By action of Congress the Commutation Fund of $450,000 is to be turned over to the Asylum for Disabled Soldiers. This fund, now in the Treasury, is the money paid as commutation money during the war, and its appropriation to this object is just and right.

        Colored Boy Appointed a Cadet at west point.-General Butler appointed a colored boy, by the name Charles Summer Wilson, of Salem, Massachusettes, a cadet at the Military Academy at West Point. This is the first case on record of a colored boybeing appointed to West Point.

        The Chicago Post has a table of cities from which it appears the Chicago, Which in 1860 was the eighth city in the Union. is now the third, or will be by the census of this year. It adds:  "Another decade and we shall be second ; still another, and we shall be first. Prosperity and happiness of this great republic, with a hundred million population, and Chicago the greatest of all great cities, it is almost beyond the capacity of the finite mind to comprehend."

        The Washington correspondent of the London News was pleased with the treatment accorded to Prince Auther in Washington. Referring to the reception at Gen. Sherman's, the winter says : "I was particularly struck with the @ air displayed by those present in regard to the distinguished visitor. while the curiiiosoty to see him was not disguised, there was a total absence of any of that pushing and scrabbling which, im sorry to say, may often be seen in Europe among persons who ought to know great deal better. Nothing could be nicer than the Princes carriage and bearing. His manner was courteous, dignified, and graceful."

        Mr, Gladstone Threatened with Assasination.- We read in the stad Gend"-"within the last few days  there has been a pressing correspondence between the Belgrian and the English Governments respecting a some what serious matter, Mr. Gladstone recently received a letter in which a person, whose signature was illegible, used violent threats towards him. Amongst other things the writer stated the if Mr. Gladstone persisted in measures taken with regard to the Rustchuk- Varna Railway company he might expect to be stabbed or shot. This letter had been written at Ghent and posted in that city. The English government handed the letter to our ambassador in London, who sent it to our Government for inquiry to be made. That inquiry has taken place in our city, but notwithstanding all all the investigations made the winter of the letter has not been secured."

        Statistics of the Freedmen's Saving Bank of Washington, just published, give additional evidence that the negro is not the only capable of making a living, but of saving something for the future. Four years ago the bank was taking in less than $1,000 a day in deposits; the past year it has averaged over $14,000 a day. In March, 1866, it had $199,283 in its vaults; in March,1870, $1,@57,006. Of the 26 cashiers at its various branches, 13 are now colored men. Its largest branch is the New Orleans, and the next largest at Vicksburg. If there was ever anybody who really thought that the negro could not take care of himself, he must change @ @ when reading these statistics. The truth is it is with negroes as with as with white men, some @ property, some make a comfortable living, others are lazy and live from hand to mouth.
