S.,nn IN Firem en-.

very respectable number of the hremen of
this CITY Yesterday attended the Fourth Presby-
tartan Church, to listen TO a sermon addressed to
them by Rev. j. c. Smith This was the first of
q series of three or four discourses. The text
was from James, Sd chap, 9Th verse Behold
what great matter little fire kindleth." Mr.
Smith stated that fremen labored and periled
much without recompense, and often in defiance
of much censure. He thought such exertions,
and the spirit that induced them, were worthy
all praise that whatever stood in the way
should be removed; that fremen were them
selves the persons to effect this I; and that re-
form determined on by them would result in
great good to all the young men and youth of the
community and he invoked their attention, their
aid, and their influence.
AS Mr.. Smith departed from the Church, a
body of fremen, of highly respectable appear
ance and demeanor, stood in a line and uncovered
their heads in token of respectful appreciation OF
his concern for them, and his kindly admonition.

The Duties OF Editors toward each oths

We quote to approve the remarks of the New
Orleans Delta. cone" it says, of those rules
which we think ought to be observed by editors
who desire to maintain the rights and respecta-
bility of the profession, is the exclusion of anony
nous attacks on contemporaries The virulence
and personality which too often mark controver-
sizes between rival journals are bad enough, in
furious enough to the standing of the profession
but there is at least one essential of fair play in
such contests they are open the parties are
known, they stand upon fair and equal grounds.
But when other persons can sneak into newspa-
pers and attack editors by name, any personal
enemy of an editor, any disappointed contributor
who is indignant with an editor for excluding his
productions, when characterized by libellous NAL
ice, or destitute of merit, may obtain safe vent
for his bad feelings in the columns of cotem-
porary. No contemporary can be attacked in this
journal unless upon terms of entire equality.
He shall have the same rights with all other per-
sons"

The Preservation of Health.

Much is said upon this subject; yet but little
practical attention comparatively is given to it,
Among the generally unnotced causes of loss of
health is the respiration of impure air 1t is re-
marked by judicious writer, that =" the congre-
CATION of many persons in one apartment, espe-
cially when artificial light in great quantity is
permitted, is cause of more maladies than is
commonly supposed Three causes in such case,
combine to destroy the fitness of the air for res
pration-the animal heat of the assembly,
the lights, and the breathing of the same
air again and again. There must be such
assemblies The remedy is proper ventilation.
The smoke of lamps has frequently occa-
stoned death. No lamp is properly trimmed
if it emit anything more than n pure, bright
flame. 1t is common practice to keep
sleeping apartments shut up. If there be sew
eral persons in q small room which has been shut
up for several hours, it would be shocking to
know how often they must breathe again and
again the same air, and how unfit it is to be
bre athed after it has once visited the lungs. Add
to this the impurity of the air, which is con-
tinually in contact with the furniture prepared
and constantly used for sleeping, in an unaired
apartment. 1t is not mere nicely, or fastidous
delicacy, which requires that the pure air should
be admitted where the human lungs are in action,
but it is law as old as the creation of man, and
and cannot be disregarded A skful observer
might select among many, from the appear
ance of the countenances, those who have just
left an apartment in which they have been respi-
ring for hours a spoiled atmosphere. No doubt
that this cause, long-continued, so affects the
whole mass of blood as to bring on many diseases.
If pure air be peculiarly necessary to any class
of persons, it is so to children. We believe
more useful suggestion could not be made, on the
subject of health, to the whole community, than
to invite them to respect this law of nature-that
there cannot be perfect health where the air is
impure, and that this applies especially to apart
ments appropriated to sleep. Visiting friends
are often put into sleeping apartments which
have not been opened for days and weeks; this
is far enough from kind treatment, however in.
nocently il be done"

THE NOMINATION !

GENERAL WINFIELD SOoTT has been nomlna-
ted by the Wing National Convention, at balti-
more "a the candidate of the Wing party for
the Presidency of the United States He has
been earnestly steadfastly, and honestly opposed
nv large number of the patriotic Wings of the
country, whose preferences were for other gentle
men. In this result we most heartily rejoice,
vet without a thought of unbecoming exultaton
over those whose opposition General Scott and
his friends have had to encounter
We have differed in our choice of nominee,
but we trust the Wing PARTY will exhibit no diff
ferences in regard to its future progress toward
the goal at which it aims. The grand purpose of
our campaign is to oppose and overpower COM
mon enemy. The selection of leader with
whom to enter upon the campaign has been but
an incidental preliminary to the great achieve
ment in the arrangement of which it was impos-
sible for all to concur in opinion; but it is not
only possible for oil to acquiesce in the will of
the majority, but as we humbly conceive, a So
cred and solemn duty.
We are proud of the nominee of our party
of q man whose honor has never been sullied
whose fame is the just pride of his country,
whose pat riotism has been attested by the fervid
eloouence of heroic action. Always emitting
comparison with the illustrious Washington, we
may safely. affirm that, whether in the council
of her sages OF in the lists of her warriors, gu
country has never produced son of superior
worth and renown-one who, when removed from
the Jealous conflicts of political strife, could more
nobly illustrate the genius of our Republic, or
