COnee md milk.

Dr. d. A. Caron, of Paris, has recently been
engaged in investigating the effect of break
fasting on this favorite beverage, and from
the results he thinks he is justified in asserting
that most OF the nervous and allied disorders
which affect the jewellers in large cities are
traceable TO this source. He further informs
US that when the coffee is mixed with milk
its nutritious properties are neutralized be
cause Gifts fermentation being retarded. Coffee
and milk in = bottle were twenty-seven DAYS
before they began TO decompose, while milk
and sugar were only three days. It is evident
that the astriugeut properties of the coffee
hinder the digestion of the milk, and, at the
same time, the caseine (or active principle
coffee is set free, and acts on the mem
brane OF the stoma Oh in the same manner
rs vegetable alkales, producing most disas-
trous consequences to the digestive apparatus.
He tried many experiments on himself and
friends, and found THAT in a few hours the
pulse was lowered from so TO 6S; from that
il went down TO 90, when he took some food,
and it Immediately rose to ~. He concludes
by informing US that many cases of irritation,
nervousness, and hystera have been entirely
cured by gentle course Of tones, and giving
up the use If coffee.

WAsHINGToN, December Is.
Il is generally believed here that the Admins
tration have sent to Kansas agents instructed to
make every effrt to have the slavery cause strick-
en- from the Lecompton Constitution. This meas
ure has given offence TO the Southern mem aers Of
Congress- and there are at present symptoms of de-
lection on Their part from the Kansas policy Of
th. administrations tits understood in the pres
ent phase of Kansas affairs hey alIedge that
the Administration in this violate the principle for
which they contend. Every day, it seems, only
develops new complications in this matter.
Governor Walker is still confined to his room
by illness. Nevertheless, he had yesterday a
lengthy interview with Mr.. Buchanan. learn
that neither of them regards the Kansas question
as any ground for the disruption of the Democrat
ic party Mr. Buchanan coriasses that except on
this question, be has in TIE Democrats and Demo-
cratic presses who oppose the Lecompton Conveu
lion some OF the warmest most able support
ers of It's Administration.

Great efforts are making by leading South, IN
men, to keep Douglas within the pale OF the party
Hunter and others have e1~rted themselves to
bring about an understanding, 10y which his pres
ept position may be ultimately disembHrrazsed
through a compromise. They are beginning 10 re-
aze at last il this test be applied rgidly anu en-
forced with consequences, that the whole North
must be merged in the detection, aud with a COM
plete and irTecOncilable schism in the Democracy.
To avert that impending danger, and TO preserve
the unity OF party org snzition, which is iu-
ternally divided on the most vital question, the
moderate portion of the South Is prepared 20 exer-
else forbearauce, and TO extend the mantle of abso-
luton for this default. They lorsave the men who
opposed Texas, who combined against Cass, and
who even opposed the Nebraska bill. Why should
they not be as tolerant OF Douglas? IL is UNDER
stood, however, that jefferson Davis is openly for
war 10 the knife, and intent upon demonstration
which may defeat the aim OF those who are more
prudent anu polite. He is against halfway meas
ures, and in favor OF shooting deserters. This
summary mode OF reasoning can only have the ell
feet of craving lnys more distinctly between the
North and south aud compelling that trOnt-to front
struggle which is bound To come sooner or later.
