EXPEDITION OF LIEUT.. MAcRAE, U. S.
NAvY.-The latest advices from the South
Pacific bring us intelligence that Lieutenant
Macrae, u S Navy, who had been detailed
on msgnetical and geographical expedi-
ton BY Lieut. Gillss, U. S. Navy, had
safely travcrsed the Andes with all his in
struments, and was then at Mendoza, in the
Argentine Republic. He describes the pas
sage Of the Andes as unusually stormy for
the period Of the year, but, like true lover
of science, he had persevered until the
completion of observations TO solve the in
teresting problem he was sent upon, allho'
il cost the entire cuticle Of every part of the
body exposed 10 the air. The condition Of
the country between Mendoza and Buenos
Ayres was such that he feared he might be
obliged to abandon his instruments at some
time on the route. For the sake of science,
however, we hope be may be able TO travel
safely over the pamfas, and bring us a rich
addition 10 magnetical and geographical
knowlcdge.- National lntelligencer.

GENERAL WAsHTNGToN ON PROFANITY
"A true extract from the original Seen
eral Order Book of Gen. Washington, un-
der date of 29th July, l779:
Many and pointed orders have been
issued against that unmeaning and abOmina-
bic custom Of swearing - Notwithstanding
which, with much regret, the General OBJ
serves that it prevails, if possible, more than
ever. His feelings are continually wounded
by the oaths and imprecations Of the soldiers
whenever he is in hearing of them The
name OF that Being from whose bountiful
goodness we are permitted to exist and en-
joy the comforts of life, is necessarily i'm
precated and profaned in manner as wanton
as it is shocking. For the sake, therefore,
Of religion, decency and order, the General
hopes aud trusts that officers Of every rank
will use their influence and authority 10
check the vice which is as improbable as it
is wicked and shameful.
I" lf officers would make il an unyariablc
rule 10 reprimand, and if that does moi DO,
punish soldiers for offences of this kind, it
could not fail Of having the desired effect"

ReA- Here 5 an account of scientific ex
pertinent recently performed in Chicago
The Tribune of that city reports il. Not
many days ago very interesting expert
ment was tried in that city to ascertain the
amount Of oxygen necessary to support life.
Six hundred persons were placed in a hall in
one Of the hotels, all the doors and windows
were closed and tho experiment began. Du-
ring the first half houI nothing special was
observed except a universal drowsiness,
which was wardcd off as long as possible by
an ingenious device Of the experimenter in
the shape Of an eloquent lecture. During
the second half hour several sank into a deep
sleep, from which it was impossible to rouse
them, and few tainted. Atlhc end Of the
third half hour il was deemed unsafe TO con-
tinue the experiment longer, and tho fact
was considered established that under those
circumstances life would become extinct
within the space of ninety-6ve minutes.

FRIENDsHIPs are sometimes as genial as
they are accidental An unsought friend e
ship may b. formed by sharing a prayer
book at church, another by a short stage
ride, another by an introduction TO an even
ing party. Persons who hold back for a
formal introduction before they venture 10
offer a civility, lose many Of the joys Of So
cial life, and go down TO the gave leaving
an ungraleiul clique behind, who do not
value their demise at a pins fee while
those who take mankind as they come,
rough and smooth, will find Ole and dross
combined but with due discrimination, it
is not very difficult to decide who are not
worthy Of our confidence and esteem, There
should be more urbanity, kindness, and iel-
low-feeling exhibited in the intercourse Of
the world. Kind Offices, kind words, and
cOngenial feelings invariably bring their
own reward.
