EIGHT CHILDREN ATA BIRTH,

On the 2od of August, Mrs. Timothy Bradley, Johnston, Trumbull County, gave birth to eight children—three boys and five girls. They are all living and healthy but quite small. Mr. B.'s family is increasing fast. He married eix years ago Eunice Mowery, who weighed 27S pounds on the day of their marriage. She has given birth to two pair of twins and now eight more, making twelve children in six years. It seems very strauge, but nevertheless is true, Mrs. B. was a '.win of three, her mother and father being bath twins, and her grandmother was the mother of five pairs of twins. Mrs. £. has named her boys after noted and distinguished men—one after the Hon. Joshua Gideings, who has given her a BplendiJ gold medal; one after the Hon. Elijah Champlin, who gave her a deed of fifty acres of land ; and the other James Johnston, who gave her a cow. Mr. Bradley says that it is profitable to have twins, and the neighbours have clothed the' others since they were bora. Mr. B. is a poor industrous labourer, but says he will not part with any of his childrtsn whilii he is able to work.—American Paper.
