OUT statemen" sustained by so able writer "A Dr.
cnard BURKE OF England He places great reliance on
the curative effects of balhag in relation 70 ma,v dis
eases, and in his excellent essay on the Pbv,c, Pdn
cation of Children" he says:
There is but subject more to which con now
refer this Is cleanliness of the entire body "a il sacs
the health OF children the neglect Of which in the earv
years OF childhood is productive of the greatest mi.
cmet Much of this may be ascribed to the low order
OF intellect which generally predomnates in those who
nave the care ct children. Could we bat raise this
Grass III Inc scale OF moral and intellectual beings
should add largely the comforts the health of
cmdren Such scheme is l fear, imprac,icakle. We
cannot nope 10 reform present system on a scale
su'ceniy extensive TO be practically applicable to
arge communities, so long as nurses chosen from
mat order OF human beings whose reasoning faculties
~here children are concerned, limited to eating
sleeping and physicking.
Now these, In their way all we'll enough but in
reality constitute small portion Of the several items
which should occupy the whole soul Of those who
uerake so responsible trust that of bringing up

blood 10 the cucular surface Of child This increased
supply OF blood will necessarily require increased ia
cty for the exit of TRANSFERABLE matter In infancy

matter which should pass OFF by that channel is either
thrown back on the circulating fluids, becomes
densed in the form of scabs the skin Of the child
good deal ofthis perhaps may be avoided by
guar of the hot or cold bath For children who ara
healthy, the cold water should be used during tho
warm weather, with warm bath once week. in which
the children should be washed with soap and brush.
When taken they should be rubbed quite dry with
coarse napkin and the body rubbed over with fine
salt this latter may be very advant employed,
for the effect of salt the system Of man is as some sup.
| pose regenerating power,
When organic diseases exist in children it is hardly
necessary TO state that cold bathing under any form
unsafe, with some few exceptions, when the nervou.
system is chiefly engaged. A proper attention to no
asa cold bathing would not only save children from
tone and vigor to their general system.

HELPLEsssEss OF WoMAS.-There is a beauty In
the hcrlessness of woman. The clinging which
searches for exraneous support is graceful and touch
ing tmdty is the attribute Of her sex; bat to bersef
il is not without It's dangers its nvenencss and its
suferngs. Her first effort comparative freedom il
bitter enough for the delicate mind shrinks from every
unaccustomed contact and the and gushing
heart closes ITSELF like the blossom Of the sensitive
plant, at every approach.
Man may at once determine his position and assert
his place woman has hers TO seek, and, aasl fear
me- that however she may appear TO a calm brow
and quiet lip to the crowd through which she makes
her way that brow thru bs, and that lip quivers 10 the
last until, like wounded bird, she can once more
wind her way the tranquil home, where the dropping
head will be fondly raised, and the Tutoring heart laid
to rest
The dependence Of woman in the common Affairs Of
life s nevertheless rather the effect Of custom than
necessity we have many and brilliant proofs thar,
where need Is, she be sufficient herself and play
her part in the great drama Of existence with credit II
Mt with comfort The yearnngs Of her solitary spirit
the cutgushings Of her shrinking sepsblty the crsv
ings Of her sliensied heart are sduged only IN the
quiet holiness Of her solitude. TIE world sees
not, gresscs not the conflict; and ~ the ig'
Of others lies her streagth-Ihe secret o. ne.
weakness shidden in the depths OF her own ana
she moves on amid the heat asd the hurry OF existence
with small seal upon her nature, 70 ~ slosen
only by fond and loving bands or dissolved m the
tears Of recovered home afecuon-M'ss f0aoe.

The EXPLORING SQUADRoN.-The time is at hand
when this long talked Of expedition is about to sail aud
Iy It's fortunes abroad There was a time when the
departure OF this fleet would have been the signal for
the expression OF an honorable pride by the great mass
oil the American people. But delays aud designations
came nke hakes OF snow, and the enterprise was
aoandened IL Is now not far from twelve eighteen
months, since visited the Macedonian in the be sf
Craney Island, ready depart for unknown seas and
only intending short jaunt New York for a warming
apparatus, before she would embark on that career
which has distinguished Cook, Anson and host az
modern navlgators. But inste ad Of getting heated AZ
New York the Macedonian became as cool as a cucum-
Der ana is now enjoying the breezes between the forts
as calmly possible What produced ali this ,s ..r
NOT say but the result discredable TO the NAVY
and to those who directed its councils But LEI this he
forgotten, or remembered only whet the edge of dis
cipine hereafter IT this result be Effected good will
grow out OF evil and honor out of Shave And "a.
Peca we say let NOT the Earrings that gre out of he

the present
Whilai is admitted that the present squadron does
not kndle that enthusiasm throughout the nation thar
would have marked the departure Of the srst vet IL
deserves and should receive the regards and wsrmest
wishes Of .he People. The gallant men, who now sally
forth on the GRAND Of the country have not ONLY done
nothing wrong but for their present course deserve

Of science and humanity and let and happiness

o. The Arkansas papers state that the Creek
Indians, who have recently e1dsraicd west of the
Mississippi, are already beginning to manifest hos
llIc spirit. They say, "as soon as the green corn
is fit TO pull, the white people must look OUT
We shall not be surprised if, in very short period,
the whole ofthe Arkansas and Missouri frontier
bordering ON the Indian settlements, shall be lighted
up with hostile fires. The policy Of concentrating,
in dense mass, SO many Indian tubes, cxaspera-
ted against us by the memory OF the recent wrongs
which they have suffered at hands, aud infusing
their own warIike spirit into the breasts of the ro-
wing tubes with whom they will be thrown into
contact, will, fear, result most dsastrousy to
all concerned. The government ought to take
timely precautions TO protect the frontier.

COMFORTS with the character OF an honorable man -
Tins speech was delivered on the Goth Of Apnl; but

took place
Mr.. GRtNDl rose and said that before tie Sc
nate should proceed 10 lis ordinary business he
wished 10 consume minute two of It's time on a

tunny OF speaking. Most Of the speech of his col
league, winch appeared III the lnleligeneef of YES
terday, he head "henit VAS delivered, aud, 50 tan
had Immediately replied 10 IT, But The concluding
remarks OF that speech he dld hear, ard though
informed OF theirimpntt. he thought best To wait
thett publication before replying 10 them.
Mr.. &. SAID he not unmindlul Of what
was due 10 himself aud To the situation which he
occupied. and he would therefore briefly remark
that all the personal references which hls
colleague had heaped upon him. lie would throw
them off with disdain and seorn--a feeling which,
he was sorry 10 say, MIS- only feciproeated, though
with less lll-Will on his part towards hls colleague
Mr.. q. further expressed ms satisfaction that his
colleague was not the Judge 10 whom his stand
ing, prosperity and welfare were committed If
II had been SO, he would have considered them as
lost
Mr.. WHITE expressed his surprise that his
colleague should require six weeks months to
reply to ms concluding remarks, aud that he did not
hear them, when lie WIS both present At the time
aud near Mr.. W. Mr.. ". also advered TO the fact
that his colleague had made attempt to contro-
vert ANYTHING which Mr. W. had said, winch he IN
sisted he couldnot do, as the evidence was atogclh
cr too decisive.
MIR. w. also made some futther remarks chiefly
personal, aud Nh. GRC NDN was III course OF re-
ply. when the NIeE President iuierlered evidently
in accordance with the general sense If the Senate,
and the two gentlemen acqniescins, the conversation
dropped
So far the report OF the National nteligenccr.
The correspondent of the Baltimore Patriot tells US
that Judgc White SAID, =" will not take back
word nothing but the character of the place pre-
vents me from saying more; andmy colleague has
my permission 10 believe that have spoken out of
