lNHALATIoS.-An officer in garrison at
Rouchefort, wearied with having pursued
for long time, without effect, the usual REM
idies for an obstinate cold, abandoned them
ut last, and resumed his ordinary course of
life. lie soon began to spit blood, and his
lungs appeared seriously affected. Still he
persisted in abstaning from his rcmedies.-
One day, having bottled olfa cask of wine
In his cellar, he had half pound of rosin and
halt a pound Of yellow wax brought into his
room, which he set about heating over a bro
zier, to seal down the corks of the bottles
This operation having lasted an hour and n
hall. he thought that he spit more freely, and
that his cough was less dry and frequent.-
II then occurred TO him that this might be
the effect Of the fumigation he had under
gone, and he determined TO renew the expe-
riment. He accordingly walked about his
room, keeping the doors and windows close
shut in a perfect cloud formed BY the smoke,
and in four or five days found himself per-
fectly cured. lie impaired ne discovery TO
the surgeon Of his regiment, who, without
having any great faith in its efficacy, thought

"KEEP Your Mouth SHUT."-Never allow
the action of respiration to be carried on
through the mouth. The nasal passages are
clearly the medium through which respiration
was by our Creator designed TO be carried on.
God breathed into mnb's nostrils the breath
of life" previous TO his becoming a living
creature. The difference in the exhaustion
of strength by long walk with the mouth
firmly closed, and respiration carried on
through the nostrils instead of through the
mouth, is uncomfortable 10 those who have
never tried the experiment. 1t is said that
the habit of carrying on the work of inspira-
ton and expiration through the mout'r is the
origin of almost all diseases of the throat and
lungs.

W Mr.. Alger, in his recent celebrated
Grafton, uttered the following impressive
passage, which ought to be written on the
statute books Of every State in the Union:
"The dead nations whose giant skeletons
now lis bleaching and crumbling on The sands
OF time, all died of sin. Ii was their crimes
that dug their graves, and pushed them in
Licentious luxury sapped the foundation
strergt and ro,ted the live virtue of one
and it disappeared beneath the green pool of
its own corruption. Brutal war, made a bu-
siness of and carried in every direction, drew
upon another the combined wrath OF the
world-and il was dashed upon the rock of
its own barbarous force. Domestic bondage,
grown enormous, trodden under foot, and
Coad-d to madness, rose on another-and
buried Il in the confagration and slaughter
Of its own provocation. Internal antipathies
based on sectional differences, fed by selfish
interest aud haunting debate finally exploded
In the quarrelsome parties of another-and
hurled its discovered fragments to ruin, by
the convulsive eruption of its own wrong and
hatred. OF all the mighty empires whose
melancholy ghosts now pace the pallid mar
gin Of oblivion, not one ever sunk, but its
own fall was through internal iniquity in
some way or other. Shall the stately shade
Of Republican America too 60 down to join
the dolefu company Of crowned spectres,
moving them beneath to rise up at her COM
ing with the sardonc mock, "Ah thou also
No wet" If we would avoid their doom of
vengeance we must not tread their path of
guilt"

COUNTESS BoTTHIASY.-The following ip.
tereslng aeecdote of The Countess has been
preserved by the Prince de Ligne in the "Me-
mories du Prince Eugene" She was told
one day of report being circulated in Wen
ma that Eugene had married her. She re-
piled: "As to that, love Eugene too dearly;
I'd rather have my own reputation damaged
than damage his, and take advantage of his
seventy years." Eugene, who heard it, then
said to her; alt might take place after all, if
the little able were not older than twenty
five yeaas, and if the body were not so reIi-
gious." by no means" the Countess an
swered at would be then just as it is now.
love God, believe in Him. and hope in Him;
and, moreover, because find in religion n
safeguard for my peace, in case should be
deserted; for il then would be my consoa-
ton in the face of woman who were still be-
loved. am religious because have no lon
ger fear, a hope, nor wish in this life;
and because the good which have done to
the poor from humanity, has been benefit
to myself and my soul. But | detest those
who affect the appearance of Religion, or
those who are religious merely with view
to their reward after death. Even if / believ-
ed that my soul would die with me, | would
try to be good, and should act just as do
now am impelIcd, not so much by fear
of God as by gratitude for his benefits, and
from love to him; but do not make show
Of it, like those ladies who, TO please the
court, not to please Heaven, make a trade Of
their religion"
This is the only religion acceptable to
God-the only true relgion-all else is
sham, hypocracy, sacrlege even.
