Expnmdihg T'hc Chest.

Thos: in wealthy circumstances or who
pursue sedentary employment within
doors, generally use their lungs very little.
breathe but very little into the chest, and
thus. independently of position, contract
a wretchedly narrow, small chest, and lay
the foundation for the loss of health and
beauty. All this can be perfectly obyis
ted By little attention to the manner Of
breathing. Recollect the lungs are like
bladder in their constr hction, and can be
stretched open to double their ordinary
size, with perfect impunity from consump-
ton. The agent, and the only agent re-
quired, is the common air we breathe, sup
posing, however, that no obstacle exists,
external to the chest, such as lacing, or
tying itaIound with stays, or tight dress,
or having shoulders lay upon it. On ris-
ing in the morning. place yourself in an
erect posture; your chest thrown back, aud
shoulders entirely off the chest: now in
hale or suck in all, the air you can, so as to
fill the chestto the very bottom Of It, so
that no more can be got in; now hold your
breath and throw your arms off behind,
holding in your breath as slongas ycu pleare.

cause the air much denser. and win aot

ANEoDoTE OF GENERAL PUTNAM. Among
the worthless who figured during the aera
Of the American Revolution. perhaps there
was none possessing more originality of
character than General Putnam. who was
eccentric and fearless, blunt in his man
ners, the daring soldier, without the pol
ish of a gentleman. He might well be call
ed the Marion OF lie north, though he dis
liked dissui probably from the fact of
his lisping. whick was very apt to over
throw any trickery he might have in view.
At tie time . stronghold, called Horse
Neck, some miles f ON New York, was in
possession ofthe British, Putnam, with a
few sturdy patriots. was lurking in its yicin-
lily, bent on driving them from the place
Tired Of lying in ambush, the men became
impatient, and inportuned the general with
questions, as TO when they were going to
have bou, with the foe. One morning
he made a speech somewhat to the follow
ing effect which convinced them that some
thing wssin he wind" Fellers, you We been
idle too long, and so have I. I'm going
down to BIsh's at Horse Neck. with an OK
team and load Of corn. If should come
back. l will let you know the particulars
! II should not, let them have it, by the
hockey
He shortly after mounted his OK cart,
dressed as Of the commonest order of
Yankee farmers, and was soon at Bush's
tavern, which was in possession ofthe Brit
tish troops. No sooner did the officers
espy him, than they began to question him
as TO bis Whereabouts, and finding him
a complete simple, las they thought, they
began TO quiz him and threatened to seize
the corn and fodder.
"Ilow much do Sou ask for your whole
concern?" asked they.
"For mercy's sake, gentlemen, replied
the mock clodhopper, with the most deplo-
rable look of entreaty, only let me of, and
you shall have my hull team and load for
nothing; and If that won't dew I'll give
you my word I'll return tomorrow and
pay you heartily for your kindness and
condescension."
"Well," said they. :'we'll take you at
your word; leave the team and provinder
with US, and we won't require any bail
for your appearance"
Putnam gave up the team, and saunter-
ed about for an hour or SO, gaining all the
information, 10 wished, and then returned
TO his men and told them Of the foe and
his plan ofsttack.
The morning came. and with it sailed
out the gallant band. The British were
handled with rough hands, and when they
surrendered to general Putnam, the elod-
hopper, he sarcastically replied; "Gentle-
men. have kept my word. told you I
would call and pay you for your kindness
and condescension!"

BEN FRANKLIN AND GOV. BURNET

Franklin had Just returned from assist
ing poor Collins to bed, when the captain
of the vessel which had brought him to N.
York, stepped up and in a very respectful
manner put a note into his hands. Frank
lin opened it not without considerable agi-
tation and read as follows:
"G Burnet's compliments awaits young
Mr.. Franklin, and should be glad Of half
an hours chat with him.
sc. Burnett" said Ben, "who can that
be?"
-' "Why'tis is the Governor, replied the
G. captain smiling. II have Just been to see
him, with some letters l brought for him
from Boston. And when told him what
world of books you have, he expressed a
curiosity to see you, and begged I would
return with you TO his palace"
Ben instantly set off with the captain
but not without sigh as he cast look at
poor Collins bed room to think what an
honor that wretched young man had lost
for the sake of two or three drinks of filthy
Z grog.
The Governors looks at the approach Of
Ben, plainly showed disappointment. He
had, It seems, expected considerable enter
tainment from Ben's conversation. But
his fresh and ruddy countenance showed
him SO much younger than he had expect
ed, thathe gave up his promised entertain,
ment as a lost hope He received Ben
however with great politeness. and took
him into an adjoining room which was his
library, consisting of a large and vel
chosen collection.
Seeing the pleasure which had sparklet
in Ben's eyes, as he surveyed SO many ele
giant authors and thought Of the rich store

Whiskcy nma Newspapers.

Aglass of whiskey is manufactured from
perhaps dozen grains Of mashed corn, the
value of which is too small to be estimated.
A pint of this mixture sells at retail for
one shilling, and ii of a good brand, it is
considered by its customers we'll worth the
money. 1t is drank off in a minute or two
it fires the brain-rouses the passions
sharpens the appetite-deranges and weak
ems the physical system; it is gone-and
swollen eyes, parched lips, and an aching
head are its followers. On the same side
board upon which this is served, lies a
newspaper, the new white paper of which
cost 3-4 of cent-the composition for the
whole edition costing from ten to fifteen
dollars per day. Its covered with mill
ion of type, it brings intelligence from the
four quarters of the globe-it has in its
clearly printed columns all that is strange
or new at home-it tells you the state Of
the market-gives accounts of the last G.
lopement, the execution of the last murder
and the latest steamboat explosion or
railroad disaster-and yet for all this, the
newspaper costs less than the glass of
grog, the juice Of a few grains of corn. 1t
is no less strange than true, that there are
large portion of the community who
think the corn juice Rheap and the newspa-
per dear and the printer has hard work to
collect his dimes, when the liquor dealers
are paid cheerfully.-Forest City.
