EFFECTS OF Temperatures on Man
Owing mainly to the flexibility of his con
stItution, although obtaining much artifi-
clal aid, man can exist under the greatest
climatic extremes The Esquimaux en-
dure the cold between the parallels of 10
and so degrees; the African sFace subsist
under the burning sun of tie Equator; /;
while Europeans, accustomed to an inter
mediate temperature have borne the rig
or OF the highest accessible latitude. and
the tiercest heat Of the torrid zone. The
power of the human frame to resist cold
according to Sir John Ross. who expert
snced four successive Arctic winters, ap-
pears to be very remarkable in different
constitutions His general conclusion is
that the ruddy, or clear complexioned
man, endowed with what physicians call
the sangulne temperament, has peculiar
power of retaining heat; while those hav-
ing pale, flabby, and sallow countenances.
whose temperament is said to be phleg-
metic or melancholio, are proportionately
deficient. The most ample clothing will
not compensate for the deficiency, since
it can only retain the internal heat; and
II this be wanting, one might as well at
tempt to warm piece Of ice by means
of blanket" He places his chief reH-
ance on abundance of food; and it is well
known that the Esquimaux takes as much
as ten or twelve pounds weight of ami
NAL food in twenty-four hours, its effect
being heightened by the fat and oleagin-
Gus quality of their diet The oxygen
which is inhaled with atmospheric air
combines chemically with the carbon of
the food, and that chemical action is the
cause of heat and vital force Therefore,
a much larger supply of animal food, which
contains many times more carbon than
vegetables, is necessary in cold climate;
while, amid the torrid heat, rice and fruit
form an appropriate diet.

DEsTISED \ ET MIGHTY.-N think 1t may
be safely said that the Jews, after all that
has been done to crush aud annihiliate
them, are at this day welding a mightier
influence upon the affairs of the world
than they have at any time before within
eighteen centuries. We cannot avoid re-
fecting with the author of the Hand of
God in History, that whether it be in pc
cuniary ability or financial tact, or in the
higher walks of learning, or in military
prow9ss, or in political or diplomatic skill
the Jews are not wanting In men thor
oughly furnished for evey exigency. The
Minister of Finance in Russia is a jew
The Minister Senior Mendizabel, of Spain
is a Jew The late President of the
French Council, Marshal Soult was
Jew No great intellectual movement in
Europe has taken place in which the Jews
have not greatly participated So it has
been in the late revolutionary struggles IN
Europe Indeed, not a small share of
human activity is this day kept in motion
by Jews That mysterious Russian dip
lomacy, which so alarms Western Europe
is organized and chiefly carried on by the
Jews. The mighty reformation now pre-
pairing in Germany is under the auspices
of Jews The daily political press in
Europe is very much under the dominion
of Jews. As literary contributors, they
influence almost every leading continental
paper. In Germany alone, they have the
exclusive control Of fifteen public jour
nails. An intelligent writer speaks Of the
magic power" of their present intellectu-
al influence in Europe. The great uni
versities of Germany are and have long
been largely supplied with Jewish pro-
fessors, and still more important is the
fact that the money kings of Europe are
principally Jews.-Ncl0 York Organ.

HEALTH OF LDEEN-Rising early is
a habit of high importance to fix in chill
dren; and, in forming it, there is far grea-
ter facility than in other cases. There
IS natural propensity in children gener-
ally to early rising, which needs only to
be encouraged. They usually retire to
bed before their parents, and at daylight,
or at least by sunrise, are generally awake
and anxious to rise Many of them are
actually bred up with difficulty to the hab-
it Of taking q morning nap, which when
once formed generally prevails through
life. Let the father so deny himself so
far as to retire early and become an early
riser also. His health, enjoyment and
usefulness, he may depend upon 1t, viii
be perceptibly benefited. And this may
be connected with another preventive of
dlsease-active employment. The NOR
ming is the season for activity; the frame
invigorated by repose is prepared for ex-
ertion. and motion gives pleasure The
pure atmosphere, so much more bracing
than at other hours, so much sweeter and
more exhilarating than the air of con
fined chamber, has been prepared to be
breathed, and like all natures medicine,
is superior to any which science can pro
duce Early rising, and early exercise
may more properly be termed food than
medicine, as they are intended for daily
use, and to protect US from disease rather
than TO remove it. Everything except
mere sloth invites us-nay requires US
to train up our children to use them
The morning is the most favorable season
for exercising the frame as well as for
making useful impressions on the mind
and heart; and whoever tries to conduct
the education of his child Independently
of this practice, viii lose some of the most
favorable opportunities.

American Agriculturist as follows;
Take one gallon Of urine, and put there
in a small handful of junk tobacco; boil
down to one quart then add two ounces
Of amber. two spoonsful of spirits of tur-
pentine. and two spoonsful of honey. Put

Of it still exist in isolated villages of this

bearers, six young girls, clad in white had
each bouquet of flowers inner hand, and
