Exposure 10 the Sun.

Exposure to the Sun.-There
are fe@ points which seem less generally
understood, or more clearly proved, than
the fact that exposure to the sun, without
exercise sufficient 10 create free p~erspira-
ton, viii produce illness and that The
same exposure 10 the SUM-, with sufficient
exercise, will not produce illness. Let
any man sleep in the sun, he viii wake

die. Let The same man dig in the sun for
the same length Of time, and be will per
spire ten times as mn. b, and be quite well.
The fact is, that not only the direct rays
ofthe sun, but the heat Of the atmosphere
produce abundance Of bile. and powerful
exercise alone will curry of that bile

SUPREME Counr - tTo copy from thai
ably conducted paper, tho Nee Orleans
Crescent the report Ola decision in favor Of
ono OF our best citizens The amount Of
the sum involved Is not stated,
Joseph Mcaart, appellant, vs. L, NJ,
Daeitsoa, e ali s, y. Mcneil, appellee.
Appeal from tho 9th District Court-Eus=
Tia, L.".Davidson was Cashier Of the
Branch Of the CarrolItou Bank at Baton
Rouge, and Mcneil was his surety. na-
wilson was charged with appropriating
some money 10 his own use. aud Mcneil
was sought TO he made liable therefor.
The Bank made an assignment OF its
rights 10 Menard. Judgment was {
dcred IN favor OF Mcneil, and plaintiff APP
pcelrd. BY a resolution Of directors in
lsll, Davidson, tho Cashier, was author.
ICED to draw his salary for four months IN
advance on paying interest. In April 1919,
he was authorized 10 draw his salary six
months Ia advance. Tho deficit arises
from the fact of the Cashier having drawn
his salary twlce-once under the above
resolutions, and again by monthly install.
mcnts Mcneil ~contonded that he was
not Liable, because the deficit was the sum
loanedby the bank under the above named
resolutions--that the advance Of the sala.
~ to the Cashier was n violation ofthe
conditions ofhis snreiyship, and that he
was thereby discharged.
This Court did not think Mcneil was
discharged by the resolutions o fthe bank
directors, and therefore reversed the judg-
ment ofthe District Court, and gave judg-
ment against Mcneil, with interest and
costs.

The September nun1ber of the South

article of profound interest on the sub
ject from the pen of Lieutenant'M. F.

Lieut.. Msury gives a history Of Of this
expedition, brief but lucid, and which
increases the, public mind 70 see the re-
port Of Lieut.. Maury, who has made a
successful survey, and who, we are glad
to learn, is expected to return soon to
this country. 81 9, w.
We learn from Lieut.. Maury's arti.
Gle that this expedition was planned by
Lieut.. Lynch, and authorized by Secre
tary Mason. In the spring Of l847,
Lieut.. Lynch first addressed the Secre.
tary on the subject, recommending a
circumnavigation aud exploration OF the
Dead Sea and its en- tire coasts, stating
that the expense would be trifing, as
our ships frequently touched at Acre,
in Syria, forty miles from Lake Tiber
ius or Sea Of Gaiil.,e, from which the
river Jordan runs and deboucties into
the first named sea; that The frame of 8
boat, with crew and provisions, could
be transported on ca mels from Acre tc
Tibefins, and there put together again.
Only one traveller, lMr. Cortigan, had
ever circumnavigate d the Dead Sea
and he had died at tn termination oi
his voyage. without le aving any jour.
nal or notes behind. II was contended
also that, independent. Of the eager ca
rissity Of all Christenelom in regard Ia

The Secretary Of the Navy received
favorably the proposition Of Lieutenant
Lynch, and an opportunity soon occur
red iby which ii could be con We niet'tly
carried into effect. It was necessa.r
to send a storeiship 10 the Mediterra /.
mean squ'dron,I and as, after her arrive,
she would have no employment for
months, the Secretary determined TO
send Lieut.. Lynch and his party in her;
so that, after meeting the wants of the
squadron, she could proceed up the Le-
want, and land Lieut.. Lynch and his
companions. This was done. The
storeship "Supply" was provided with
two metallic boats, one OF copper, lhe
other iron; the foymer named aFanny
