Baltimore gnu, DOtU. the MW nTRKKT habium. iU.tniri; Levee -Their Parents and * Their Paosi'BCTS--Pectni\uv Aid, ■ &0 - ■ The four little babies children of K]],> birth, belonging to tin* hai>pyllt ttc father, John Hahn, of No. till Low Erect, have become the town talk ev- Hn wherc, and a great deal of interest KiV been manifested in their welfare, W give them a chance to grow. Not- JmtMtaiKlinK the ineonvenint locality of their birth and the pent-up sur f tidings of their cradle, there has n an almost continuous rush to them. At times duringycsterday little room in which they lay was £>wdod almost to suffocution with lies, while the narrow stairs were >wdcd, ami tile pavement outside thronged with others awaiting their turn. The babies were neatly dress ed, having ribbons of different, colors, and tags with their names as they, were christened, Sarah, Mary, Kate and Jennie, to distinguish one from i the other, It is feared that the atmosphere of a small, crowded room, and the stir rounding excitement, will not he good for them, but the people will come, andjoally it is not to be wondered that curiosity is aroused over such a remarkable freak of nature. All the children urc plump and well develop ed. They have amply demonstrated their lung powers, and seem to have as good a prospect for life as any ot li er children born in their condition, bolter, indeed, when the sympathy is considered t hat tliehr appearance al together inis awakened. One of the children seems to beu trille more d.-l ieate than the three others. Miss Sa rah seemed to be more generally itt qpred for than her sisters on account of the notoriety siie had obtained for being a cry baby. AU who were admitted to seethe babies paid something into the hands of a voimg man stationed to receive contributions to the baby fund. Sev eral hundred ladies and some men vlaited the house during the day, naHTiy all of them paying at least 25 eito admission, and some voluntari ly giving a larger sum. Among the Spptors were persons from a distance, i At least a dozen or more physicians 1 went to see for themseves and to in quire of Mr. liahu all about it. In-, deed the father seemed to be as much j an object of curiosity as the babies. Ho is a small, neat, slim, intelligent! little man, not more than five feet tall. The mother is said to be a wo-: man of large size, though she is of course secluded. Her physicians, however, report her to be doing well. The father remained up-stairs in t lie room with the babies, guarding his Orooc from the too enthusiastic ea geruessof the ladies in their rnanib s gjfclons towards “the little dears.’’ He has his hands full "minding the > babies.” Mrs. Hahn will soon eome around all right again, and then he will lie relieved. A nurse was in Attendance helping the little four father. Contributions for the babies were started at several hotels and in other public places yesterday. At Bar- 1 gum'. ! twenty-five dollars were raised up to lust night. Considerable sums were also given at the Carrollton ami the Eutaw House, at the bar of Font’s Grand Opera House, and at Kavan iagh’s Restaurant, on Eutaw street. Thou uartette has become so popular , mat the proprietors of much patron ized restaurants and cigar stores have begun to discover that subscription lists for the babies are “just the thing.” The proprietor of the cigar stand at Itanium’s lias the following placarded above a box, in whieli the money can be put: ‘•Four little babies all In a row, l'ay ten cents and let the babies grow.’’ Mate Agricultural f,invention at Thom asvillr. Spcciil from the Atlanta Herat,l.] Thom\svii.i.e, Gu., February 24, 1875. —A very large convention of two hun dred and fifty delegates entertained by the people and authorities of Thonia-ville with unbounded hospi-I tiility. Dr. rendleton's third report of ex periments was yesterday, exciting the highest interest. In the morning l’rof. Leroy Brown made an address on the influences of the moon on animal and vegetable life, full of great learning and show ing conclusively that no such influ ences wore possible. It was ordered to be published, and will do more to root out superstition than any publi cation ever made. Prut White’s addresson the analy sis of wheat, peas, pine, straw and fertilizers especially, showing how farmer can determine what is a ftiir price for commercial fertilizers, was highly appreciated. Hr. W. 1,. Jones’ address on the cotton plant as a fertilizer presented anew and highly important question. The convention adopted the follow ing Resolution: Resolved, That the Georgia Slate College of Agriculture is worthy of a liberal support from the Legislature, under whose control the College is placed by law, and we recommend the Legislature to provido the Col lege with ample means, and to fur nish all appliances required to teach and investigate subjects relative to agriculture and mechanic arts, as thereby the direct interests of the farmer-, and of the industrial '-lass, will be promoted, and the wealth of the State increased. Arcsolution wusadopted eoinmettd ing the Agricultural Department to the fat huts of Georgia, and thanking Dr. Jones for his report sand circular, and rigid enforcement of the inspec tion laws. ■Alton was selected for the next convention.
