EFFECT OF GOOD AND BAD NEWS.

EFFECT OF GOOD AND BAD NEWS.
Bad news weakens the action OF the
heart. Expresses the lungs, destroys the
appetite, stops the digestion, and partially
suspends all the functions of the system.
An emotion Of shame fushes the face: fear
%blanches, joy Eliminates it; and an in
slant thrill electrifies a million of nerves.
Surprise spurs the pulse into a gallop.-
Delirium infuses great energy. Volition
commands. and hundreds Of muscles
spring TO excite. Powerful emotions often
kill the body at a stroke. Gallo, Diago.
nus, and Sophocles died of JOY at the
Grecian games. The news of defeat
killed Philip v. One of the Popes died
Of an emotion of the ludicrous on seeing
his monkey robbed in pontifcials, and &C.
cupying the chair Of state. Mulley Mo-
loch was carried to the field Of battle in
the last stage Of an incurable disease; up
on seeing his army give way he rallied
his panicstricken troops, rolled back the
tide of battle, shouted victory and died -
The d~oor-keeper of Congress expired on
hearing Of the surrender Of Corvallis
Eminent public speakers have often died
in the midst of an impassioned burst of ell
oquence, or when the emotion that produ-
ced it had suddenly subsidized. Legrave,
the young Partisan, died when he heard
that the musical prize Tor which he had
competed was adiudged to another. The
case Of Hill, in New York, is fresh in the
memory of all; he was apprehsnded for
theft, taken before the police, and tho in
perfect health, mental agony forced the
blood from his n~ostrils, and he was Car
ried home dead.

TREATMENT OF HORSES WHEN

Men and horsss, remarks tie New Eng
land Farmer, are the only animals that
swsat. So say the medical men, whose
BUSINESS it is 10 investigate the wonderful
living mechanism of both. The OK cools
of BY accelerated respiration; il heated in
the furrow, he partially opens his mouth,
drops his tongue, and by rapid respiration.
or breathing. throws off the excess OF heat,
which has accumulated in the system.
The dog which runs at the side fthe car
riage through the immense heat of a July
sun, dashes into the cold spring with I'M
punity, and returns refreshed. having no
perspiralion to check. ''when men or
horses, submerged in a similar manner,
would suddenly, check perspiralion, and ii
they survived the shock, il would be but to
die with acute or chronic inflammation"
In violent motion, the perspiralion Of both
men and horses is increased, but not sui
fioiently so as to carry off the heat that is
generated; they perspire through the skin.
the pores of which become opened or en-
larged, and it is while in this condition that
both are exceedingly liable to be injured,
and when great care is necessary to pre-
serve the health of either.
We saw a noble looking animal last
winter, standing by the road side, wet with
p%erspiration; dotted with foam, and appa-
rsntly highly heated. There he stood. un-
checked by rein orhalter. faithfully waiting
his masters return. The cold was intense;
the mercury being below zero! lmpati-
emily he paved the ice under his feet,
champed the bit, and wildly flung his head
from side to side, while his lips were con-
tracted and n%ostrils collapsed, giving him
a fierce and unnatural appearance. No
blanket covered his wet and heated body
while the keen morning air froze stiff the
moist long hairs that stood out from the
skin. He was evidently suffering severely.
And this is no uncommon sight. So little
is known of the physiology and functions
Of the horse, that the man who would re-
fuse an extravagant price for Il favorite
y animal suffers him to stand in the condition
we have described. If the horse escaped
an attack of collie or violent inflammation
in some shape, it was his good fortune,
and not from any wisdom or humanity on
the part Of his owner.
Even in mild weather, though it may be
summer, men or horses should not remain
quiet in a cold draft. when heated and wet
with perspiration. Millions OF the colds
complained Of would be prevented, by OBJ.
serving this simple rule, and thousands of
valuable lives preserved which are now
annually extinguished.
But you, who value the noble animal
which you control, when you "rein up
for business or pleasure. let the mantle
com over your steed in the shape Of a
blanket. Depend upon it, you will find it
cheaper than physic, travelling on foot, or
drawing your carts yourself.

In the year 1245 the predecessor Of Edward
the First had only one glass cup which Guy
dc Roussillon had given to him He sent it to
Edward Of Westminster, q famous goldsmith
IN his day, with orders to take off the glass
loot and to mount it on foot of silver gilt to
make handle to it answering to the foot; to
surround it with silver-glt hoops ana; having
done TINS with oil haste, to present IL in his
name to the Queen Glass was first applied to
windows In the churches and the monasteries;
and although the Edwards and some Of their
chief mobiles introduced ni glass into their own
windows also, they did so sparingly, using il as
SO rare luxury, that, in the best Of palaces
there was but a glass window here and there
the other windows having wooden lattices or
wooden shutters. The glass in mans win
dows was portion of his personal estate.
The Romans made good glass, and knew
the use OF it in windows. Brittle as glass is
it stood firm under the blows that crushed the
Roman empire and, from the beginning of
the middle ages the island Of Murano near
Venice, was celebrated for its works in this
material. In Italy, church windows were
glazed in the seventh century. The art spread
into France and Germany long before England
practiced it. 1t used to be obtained by us, in
England, from the Flemings in exchange for
wool; some came from Normandy that being
all, or chiefly, window glass; the drinking
glasses were made in Venice, after patterns
sent out by the English dealers. After the
age Of the Edwards in 1886, glass was SO
scarce, that, to mend the broken windows in
a chapel at Stamford the King issued his writ
to one Nicholas Hoppewell, to take as much
glass as he could find, or might be needful for
his purpose from the counties Of Norfolk,
Northampton, Leicester, and Lincoln. Yet,
though scarce glass was not very dear; and
from this fact we fairly may deduce, that it
was not, on the whole, much cared about.
Even in the reign of Edward the First, it cost
but e-pence-halfpenny foot, including the
expense of glazing; three-pence-halfpenny be-
ing it is remembered, equal to about four shil-
lings and fourpence of our modern currency.

PROSPECTUS OF THE AMERICAN TELEGRAPH
Weekly washington city.

1t is alleged by their advocates that the late
measures, called Compromise, should be salts
factory and final adjustment Of the slavery ques-
tion. They cannot become SO otherwise than by
uniting and consolidating the South in support
of their rights, and by harmonizing the conflict
ing sectional, interests which have arrayed the
North against the South
The result of the late elections proves that the
South are attached to the Union, and wish to
harmonic with the North. To reconcile con-
ficting opinions, and secure concert and una
nimity, there must be mutual confidence and
goodwill. This is impossible, unless the sections
deal fairly and justly towards each other. The
true end Of government is to protect persons and
property. In the South slaves are property, and
the South demand the peaceable and quiet pos
session of such property Their right to hold
slaves as property is denied by the Abolitionists
of the North, who, that they may more efficiently
ganized themselves into religious and political
combinations. They act through the press, the
pulpit and the ballot-box Such an organization
in one section makes it indispensable that there
should be q counter organization in the other |;
because, if not resisted by such counter organiza-
tion, the inevitable consequence would be that
the Northern organization would absorb and
control the entire public sentiment, social moral,
religious, and political, of that section. The
purpose Of the Northern organization is to assail
the rights and interests Of the South: the pur-
pose Of the Southern organization should be to
protect the interests thus assailed.
Late events prove that the North are so deeply
interested in preserving their present political and
commercial relations to the South, that power
full influential, and controlling party can be raj
lied in that section who will unite with the South

A New Test.
BALTIMORE, January IL, 1852.

In the election of President of the Common
Council yesterday, new test was applied, which
is worthy Of being noticed. Our neighbor Riddle
of the journal" who represents the First Ward
in that branch, was a candidate for presiding
officer, and, owing to the strange course recently
pursued by his paper in regard to Gov. Kossuth,
many of his old personal and political friends de-
termined that they would not vote for him. Ac-
cordingly it was agreed to run Thomas M. Mar
shall (Whig) as the Kossuth candidate for Prest-
dent and he was elected by large majority.
