A poor man with very ragged clo,hc. once sat

looked pale and haggard-which with his tangled
halt and dry skin made him look very unhappy.

A. he sat iolling about opposite the bar, towards
which he cast many sntious looks, an old sailor

Qnaatity Of breath in Man and Woman The
French are most experimenting race, and their
discoveries in arts and sciences proverbially in
advance of other nations. BY experiments made
at the Paris Academy ofSciences and arrived a,
by an ingenious species Of mask being placed over
the face ofthe person whose breath was to be ex
amined, it was ascer,aiaed that man gives out
much larger quantity Than woman, and this differ
ence is most striking between the ages of i6 and
49, at which latter period the quantity of carbonie
acid given ont by the male is double that of the
female. In the male the quantity goes on increa
sing from the age of s to 80 years, after which i
begins 70 diminish and, as man becomes oldel
and older the dminution goes on in an increased
degree. In old age, the quantity is no, greaae
than il was at the age Of ten

The MURDER OF CoRLiEs 1T will be seen BY
our report that the examination before the Coroner
has been closed, the Jury, after brief absence
last evening, returning verdict that the deceased
came to his death by a wound from some person
unknown. Mr.. and Mrs. Cotton were thereupon al
once discharged. Nothing to the voluminous ,cs,i
mony that has been ssken in this pro,racted case
tends to fix suspicion ofgul, upon any person, and
the affair remains enveoped in its original mystery
The fact that man may be shot in the open stree
at only few steps from the most crowded thorough
fare in the city, hour when the streets are so gen
orally ihronged. and the murderer escape even
supcion of having done the deed, is certainly some
what alarming What disclosures time may in
volre remains to be seen; at present. however, the
whole affair ia in the darkest mystery; and we see
no reason why it should not remain so as long as
the circumstances attending the death of Mary Rog
ers have been concealed from the public eye.

Ohio Distracted This state is at last distrcted,
and in such way as to give the Wings and the
Locos l5Sdstricts, This of course settles the po-
ltica character of the next Ohio delegation in Con.
gress. There can be no dobbt now which party
will have the ascendancy in the mex, U. ). House
of Representatives. No exerons which the wings
OF Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, or North Carolina,
capable of making, can 10y any possibility, Sc
cure to them more than quarter Of the members
from those states. We may therefore expect to see
strange scenes enacted at Washington next winter
unless the true Wings Of the Senate shall now be
powerful enough TO resist successfully the designs
