In her life Of George Washington,
just published, Mrs. Kirkland gives us a
little closer view Of that stately lady, Mrs.
Martha Washington, than other writers have
done.
"lf We were to give our private opinion -
says Mrs. Kirkland, s.we should say that
Mrs. Martha Custis Washington, with her
large fortune, her strong domestic tastes and
affections and her dutiful common sense
character, exercised her full share Of nllu-
euec over the Commander in chief of the
Armies Of the United States of America
She had a very decided way of speaking. aud
as she never meddied in public affairs. we
can easily imagine the General letting her
have her own WAY in pretty much everything
else. guest at Mount Vernon happened to
sleep in room adjoining that occupied ty
the President and his lady. Late in the eya-
ming, when people had retired to their va
rious chambers, he heard the lady delivering
very animated lecture to her lord and mas

she thought ought 10 have been done differ

foundest silence, aud, when she, too, was
silent, he opened his lips and spoke. now.

of the vanity of struggling for wealth very

Rev. DR.. Higbee observed, when passing

GROWING MEN. - DIR. w. Holmes has
shown what every body knows, that we nre,
as race, deteriorating. But he has not
given us the reason why the New England
man grows smaller in bone and muscle
Chemistry tells us it is owing to the want Of
material in the soil to produce bone. Much
IS owing to our unnatural habits Of life
Much to the weakness of our female sex,
who do anything but develope their muscular
powers. But the main reason why the race
dcseriorates SO rapidly in the eastern part
OF New England, is owing to the hard gran
lite soil, which does not furnish limestone
sufficient to form the bones. In Kentucky,
Ohio and Western Vermont, men grow to
large size because Of the limestone forma-
ton under the soil. Parts Of families have
emigrated to limestone regions, and the re-
suit in the next generation has been larger
bone development in those who left Massa-
chusetts than in those who remained. Ken
lucky, Ohio and Iowa will grow great men.
| The finest figures in the world viii be found
in the valley Of the Mississippi in few gen.
erations. Indoor labor, so unnatural for
men, will weaken the vital powers and stop
I the growth in large cities, but the great and
I glorious West, with its broad prairies, will
compensate for the growing feoblencss Of tn,
i Eastern States.
