The Man WITH WHITE HAIR On the
excursion train from Utica to Boonyile,
SAYS the Watertown journal, at the open
lug Of the Utica and Black River Railroad,
our attention was arrested by the singular
appearance of an apparently middle aged
man, whose hair and whiskers we're per.
fectly white. We learned upon inquiry
that he was a native Of Oneida county, bur
was now resident Of California, where
he has resided for several years, engaged
principally in mining. The cause of his
white hair he explained as follows: He was
engaged in mining, and had several men
at work in a mine which extended some
ways under ground. One day he went to
carry the dinner to his men, and when he
had been there but a few minutes, they
heard the unmistakeable sounds Of the
caying in of the sides Of the mouth of the
shaft.
Four men started at once, hoping to es-
cape, but were met by the falling earth and
crushed to death. He was enclosed in {
space of about six by twelve feet, whil(
three men below him were cut off from any
communication with him, and be supposed
they were crushed to death. He had {
light and plenty of water and provisions
but his chances Of ever seeing daylight
were not very fattering, as he was some
sixty orseventy-fye feet under the surface
of the earth, and he was not certain that
the disaster would be discovered in time
to make any attempt to relieve him and
if such attempt should be made, the pros.
pect that it should prove Intellectual.
Fortunately the disaster was carly dis
covered, and a large force was set to work
and after unremitted exertions for three
days and nights, he was discovered in an
exhausted condition. The three men be.
low him were also found alive. When
taken out his friends declared that for a
day or two he was partially insane, His
hair had also become nearly white during
his confinement. His feelings during
those three days, he claimed, could not be
imagined, but that his whole life passed
rapidly in review, and that every act wa:
brought wildly to mind. In fact, those
three days appeared life time to him -
He said that the sight of one of those
shafts always caused shudder to pass
over him.

Nitrogen, Oxygen and CarbOniC
Acids.


The atmosphere that surrounds US, and
which, at every breath. enters and per
meates our bodies. is composed of three
subtle, elastic, and invisible auids-lhose
named above. In The first nothing car
burn. and no life can exist; in the second
bodies burn, and animals live with great
intensity Of action; the third exlinguishes
both life and flame. Though they are
very different in their properties singly,
the admixture of them which forms our
atmosphere. is so beautifully adjusted to
all things, animate and inanimate on this
earth, as 10 call forth the admiration oI
every man OF science towards the Infinite
Chemist. Did the air consist Of nitrogen
alone. there would be no heat felt on the
earth excepting that of the suns rays
consequently there would be no life oil
our planet, for neither animal nor plant
could flourish. Were it formed Of oxy
gen entirely, when once kindled il would
produce a general conaagralion, and
would not be exlinguished until every
thing comLuslible was consumed. II
were formed wholly of carbonic acid gas
the production flight and heat BY com
bustion would be impossible, and there
would be a reign Of death. But the ex'
act admixture Of these three gasses lorm-
ing the genial air which we inhaIe' has
rendered it possible for our planet TO be
the abode of lite, activity and beauty
Under their influence plants put forth
their green leaves, and flowers put on
their lovely colors; animals live and en-,
Joy the abundance provided for them
and man calls forth light and heat as min
listers of his comforts and pleasures. The
inert nitrogen diutes the TOO energetic
oxypen. so as 10 make animal lite contln.
ue longer. and the carbonic acid gas is
rendered harmless TO animal life by the
very small quantity Of it in the mixture
And while it does no injury to men, and
no good as il respects inhalation, its pres
ence is essential TO the life and produce
Of vegetation; and thus, by secondary
agency, it is necessary to mans very ex
istence-it is his poison and his aliment

THE INDEPENDENT MAN.
BY PARK BENJAMIN

"I a I'A O71s'0 n III
Now let me speak ofrryate liberty,
That independence which belongs 70 you and ne
Nust inly feel, and nobiy dare to find.
And let some shafts Of sportiye jests be tbrowr
On such as dare not call their souls their own.
The man who, rcsolute in right, pursuos
Hi. own plain path, well knowing how to choose
This comes or that, as him besee1neth best:
Who keeps clear conscience as his bosom guest
0beying that alone, and HoLY WoRDf
Whose mind is not by warning doctrines stirred,
And never fears what fellow man can d.
But only God, and to hinself is true
That msnis independent. sublime
Ho soar5, superior 10 change or tims.
