A REMARKABLE MAN.-Ata a temperance
meeting held in Alabama. about SIX years
ago, Col. Lehmanousky. who had been
twenty-three years in the armies of Ma
poleon Bonaparte, addressed the meeting.
He rose before the audience, tall, erect
and vigorous, with glow of health upon
his cheek, and said:
"You see before you a man seventy
years old. l have fought tro Hundred
battles have fourteen wounds on my
body have lived thirty days on horse
flesh, with the bark of trees for my bread,
snow and ice for my drink, the canopy of
heaven for covering, without stockings or
shoes on my feet, and only few rags for
clothing. In the desert of Egypt 1 have
marched for days with burning sun up
on my naked head feet blistered in the
scorching sand, and with a thirst so tor
menting that l have opened the veins in
my arms and sucked my own blood. Do
you ask how survived all these horrors
| answer that, under the Providence of
God, owe my preservation, my health
and vigor, to this fact, that I never drank
a drop of spirituotLs liquor In nay lifet and,"
continued he. "Baron Larry, chief sur
geon of the French army. has stated as
fact, that the six thousand survivors, who
safely returned from Egypt, were all of
them men who abstained from ardent
drinks"

A FACT OR Two TOUCHING CAMPuoR.-
Camphor is vegetable gum, semi-trans-
parent and colorless. 1t is exceedingly
volatile. When exposed to the air it
flies off in vapor. On account Of its
strong and armonic smell it is much used
to preserve cabinets and clothes from
moths and other insects. From it's strong
smell has arisen the idea that it is pre-
servative against Infectious disorders, but
as it is poisonous. disease is more liable
from the camphor than from Infection
Although camphor is dissolved in water
only in small quantity, sufficient how
ever is taken up to give the water its ar
omatic odor and bitter taste. If some
shavings of camphor are thrown on the
surface ofperfectly clean water in basin,
the pieces Immediately begin to move ra-
pidly, some round on their centers, others
from place to place. The cause of the
motion is unknown. Camphor exists in
many plants, but it is chiefly obtained
from two plants, one native of China and
Japan. much resembling the laurel. 1t is
obtained by chopping the leaves, branch
es, roots, &c, into small pieces and pla-
cling them in a still with water. The other
canphor tree is native of Borneo and
Sumatra. The camphor is obtained by
splitting open the tree. when it is found in
large pieces in the interior.

APPEARANCE OF THE PRESIDENT ELECT

APPEARANCE OF THE PRESIDENT ELECT.-
A correspondent at Concord, N. H., in a
letter to the Herald, gives rather graphic
description of the personal appearance of
Gen. Pierce, as follows:
II have had the pleasure of several lit
tie interviews with General Pierce. He
is man of mark, Il man of education, a man
of accomplishments in the ways of the
world shrewd politician, and of broad
and comprehensive views as a statesman.
His face is expressive, and genial. and in
telligent. He is aiiable and pleasing in
his manners, modest and unpresuming.
yet cool and self-posSesSed in a remark
able degree. He evidently feels that he
has not yet been tried to the measure of
his capacities and, what is better, he
has the power invountarily of convincing
you of the fact. He has an agreeable
voice, speaks readily, freely, fuently, and
correctly but he keeps his own counsels
in all matters requiring the exercise of a
saving discretion.
ain person he is about FIVE feet nine
inches high, straight, and slenderly built.
He has not that breadth of shoulders, nor
that depth of chest, Indicating the most
vigorous constitution. His complexion,
too, is pale, and his face thin, excepting
the extraordinary expansion of the lower
jaw but he is one of that wiry, active
class of men, all muscle and nerve, and
capable of all sorts of hardships and en-
durance."
