PURE AIR.-Whatever renders tho
blood impure, tends to originate con-
sumption. Whatever makes the air
impure, makes the blood inquirer. 1t
is the air we breathe which purifies tho
blood. And as, if the water we use to
wash our clothing is dirty, it is impos-
sible to wash the clothing clean, so if
the air we breathe is impure, it is i'm
possible for it to abstract the impurities
from the blood. What, then, are some
Of the more prominent things which
render the air impure? It. is the nature
of still water to become impure. 1t is
the nature of still air to become impure.
Running water puri6es itself. Air in
motion, draughts of air, are self-puri-
fers: Thus it is that the air of close
room becomes inevitably impure. Thus
it is that close rooms bring cousump.
ton to countless thousands. Hence all
rooms should be so constructed a. to
have constant draught of air passing
through them. A man of ordinary
size renders a hogshead of air unfit for
breathing, and consumes its blood-pu-
rifying qualities every hour. Hence,
sleeping in close rooms, even though
alone, or sitting for very short time
in crowded vehicle, or among large
assembly, is perfectly corrupting to the
blood. Close bedrooms make the
graves of multitudes. -HalPs Book Of
Consumption.

A GENERAL BANKRUPT LAVA special
dispatch from Washington to the Nov York
Herald says that Senator Toombs, of Geor-
gia, Chairman Of the Judiciary Committee,
has prepared ''bill for a general and uni
form system of bankruptcy throughout the
United States, for the protection Of credi.
tors, the relief of insolvent debtors, and to
regulate the commercial intercourse of the
citizens Of different States, including banks
and all corporations; and as near a. can
now ascertain it will contain both velunta
rily and involuntarily bankruptcy, and will
compel both individuals and corporations to
pay their debts or become bankrupt"
The correspondent of the journal in which
the despatch appears, thinks that the oper
alton of the law, if the bill passes, will pre-
vent bank suspensions, by holding over all
corporate institutions fear of proceedings in
bankruptcy; that it will provide against all
frauds and preferences, and compel an hon
est division Of bankrupts' property among
creditors.

AgainSt the New Test.

The Richmond Enquirer protests against
making Lec"mpton party test. But the
protest comes too late. The edict has al
re"dy gone forth. This Southern organ
naively says: "If advocacy of the Lecompton
Constitution is to be made the toucll.stone
of Democracy now, we won like to be in
formed what is to be the merit party test" 1t
also remarks, with some truth and a good
deal of canting absurdity:
"The Democratic party has arrived at a
critical period in its hist ry. The American
people have arrived at a critical period in
their history too. A DISCRIMINATION Of the
Democracy now mus. inevitably and speedily
lead to disruption of the Union. The one
would follow the other as surely as night
succeeds day. And for our part we would
not separate the sequence from the cause, if
we could for, whe n the Democratic party is
disorganized, Black Republicanism must tri-
umph and when that takes place, the only
safety for the South will be in session.
We are not sure that the Richmond organ
of the Lecomptontes has expressed more
than the general feeling of that party at the
South, as to the inpolicy of forcing througl,
the swind!e by party pressure, or as to Mr..
Buchanan's fatal mistake in max ng this

MANLY BEAUTY.-A writer in the
Home Journal thinks that mental &C.
tivity tends to keep the body young:
1--WE were speaking of handsome
men, the other evening, and l was won
dering why k had 50 lost the
beauty for which FIVE years ago he was
famous. ooh, it's because he never
did anything,' said B.; she never
worked, thought, suffered. You must
haze the mind chiseling a,Uay at the
features, i|you aUant handsome mid
dle-ased men," Since hearing that
remark, have been on the watch at
the theatre, opera and other places, to
see whether it is genarally true-and 1t
is. A handsome man who does moth
ing but eat and drink, grows aabby,
and the fine lines of his features are
lost; but the hard thinker has an admi-
rable sculptor at work, keeping his fine
lines in repair and constantly going
over his face to improve the original
design"

LEcoNpToS IN CoNGEEss.-Ihe correspon-
dent Of the Journal of Commerce says the
administration will have a majority Of from
two to eight in the House, and adds:
"The southern men are much excited by
the long contest on Kansas, and, though
they admit that they have lost the game,
they think it was by foul play. Therefore,
they make stand, unanimously y, upon the
admission of ka nsas with the Lecompton
Constitution. The app, ehension til at some,
OF all of the Southern Safes will resist, by
some decided acts of di>union, the rejection
of Kansas, if she presents herself with q
slave Constitution, is no doubt, the cause Of
the soici,ude of the Administration tor the
speedy admission of Kansas with the L.

What pity it is that the tire-eaters will

A lkNllr0nd to TLpIoM.

The following letter, addressed to some Of
our citizens in regard TO u Railroad through
Upton to Dubuque, has been received. We
thirn it should receive the earnest attention
Of the citizens Of Muscatinc, and call forth
early and energetic action in behalf of this
important enterprise.
TIProN, March 2, 1858.
GENTLEMEN - A. public meeting held in
this place. to take into consideration the i'm
portanee Of Railroad communication, the
undersigned were appointed committee to
correspond with such persons, corporations,
a., rs would promote the design, or elicit
information as to the feasibility and practi
cability of any specific route. Our attention
has been called to the chain of Roads run
ming north and south to wit, from DUBUQUE
to keokuk, and it being supposed that so
much of the Same lying between Keekuk and
will be soon in progress, and as
We are informed the Dubuque Co. have
nearly completed the grading Of that part Of
said route between Dubuque and Anamosa,
and are sanguine Of its completion to that
place, it occurs to US that it only requires
united effort in the right spirit and upon q
proper basis to complete the remaining link,
and that some IN ode ,aay be devised by which
the extension of the Road from the Junction
to Upton can be effected, even if the whole
distance from Wilton to Anamosa should be
thought unadvisablc at the present time.
We should be pleased to hear from you
and from others in your city on the subject,
believing that some organization can be ef-
fected VIII CHI would unite all conflicting in
terests, and would be gratifei in receiving
any suggestions that you think proper or
expedient in carrying out the project

THE SEA SERPENT CAUGnr.-An English
sea-captain named Frederick Smith gives to
the London Times an account Of his seeing
the sea-serpent in the same vicinity where
Capt lIarri g'on saw it, whose account h as
been extensively published in the papers,
But Capt Smith destroyed al the romance
by actually catching the serpent and taking
him aboard the ship. He was 20 feet long
and inches in diameter, and was in fact q
gigantic sea- weed, covered with barnacles,
the root of which, rising above the water,
appeared like the head of the monster in
motion. So close was the resemblance to a
serpent that even after it was taken on board
it had every appearance of one. We are
sorry to lose the last of he old gigantic rep
tiles in this way.

s9T Little or no water is found in
the stomach of drowned person and
when it is present, it can in no way
have contributed to death. The expe-
riments Of Ori6la and Marc have pro-
we'd that water is never found in bodies
submersed after death and that it
cannot be made to enter the stomach
without the assistance of tube passed
into the gullet. This fact, and that of
little or no water entering the lungs,
cannot be too widely propagated, as
the popular prejudice is in favor of the
opposite opinion and bodies taken
out Of the water are still rolled on
barrels, and held up by the heels, in or |.
