Bed Rooms and their Ventilation,

fore copy from an article in the Philadel,
ph'a Ledger the following:
A bedroom ought to be the largest room
in the house, ought to have the highest
ceiling, ought to be SO constructed as to be
ventilated with the greatest ease. Yet all
these rules are violated in our bed d-rooms. -
All that can be done, therefore, is TO ven,i-
! late them III the best maffner their construc-
ton will permit; for supply Of fresh air
is Indispensable to health. Investigation
has shown that every adult person vitiates
four cubic feet Of air every minute. Now,
if a bedroom is occupied for eight hours,
, the amount of air vtiated is more than sew.
entcen hundred cubic feet If two adul,
persons occupy chamber, the quantity
vitiated in eight hours, is about thirty five
hundred cubic feet. If children also sleep
in the room, the amount is much increased
A man and wife, occupying a chamber ten
feet square and eight feet high, will render
| all its air unfit for respiration in less than
two hours
In ordinary apartments, the cold air is be.
low, and the hot above-the purcst below
the impurest above. Hence, low bedstead
! as general rule, is healthier than high
! one; care being taken, however, not to have
it so low as to be swept by currents. Beds
on the floor are injurious, for example
because the draught from under the door
often goes over them. Wherever there is
al open Fireplace, there is continual sue
! ton of air towards it from the doors and
windows, and in such apartments bed
should never be made upon the floor. Cur
rents OF air are Indispensable, nevertheless

open window at top, when the air with
out is hotter than the air within. To ven
tiate a room, under such conditions, We
must reverse this process. The popular no
ton, which is an erroneous one, is that it i.
only necessary to raise window to pro,

aperture will show when a current is estah

We find the following in the American
correspondence Of the London Illustrated
News. 1t is from the pen Of the poet,
Mackey, whose descriptions Of Charleston.
and Of a visit to Gen. Galsdcn's plantation,
We have heretofore given.
From Charleston to Savannah by sea is a
distance Of one hundred miles; by land
there being no railway communication cx-
cept by traversing two sides Of triangle
the distance is about two hundred miles. A
direct coast railway is in course Of construc-
tion bat at present most travellers, except
those who are very bad sailors, prefer the
sea passage. AS had already gone over n
considerable portion of the land route,
through the pine forests Of Georgia and
South Carolina
Where, northward as you 60,
The pines for grow;
Where, southwark you bend,
Are pine trees without end;
Where. if you travel west,
Earth loves the pine tree best;
Where. eastward if you gaze,
Through loug, UNMARRIED ways,
Behind you and before,
Ar. pine trees evermore:-
l preferred the sea, as offering more com
fort, as we'll as more novelty, than the land
route. No traveller in America, unless he
be very much pressed for time, or have
special reasons for the preference, will travel
by the miserable railroad if he can get into
steamer. The steamers are as invariably
good as the rail is invariably bad. Taking
my passage in the tidy little boat, the St
Mary's, bound for the St. Johns River in
florida, and touching at Savannah, found
myself in comfortable quarters. The crew
consisted entirely Of negro slaves; the only
white men on board, the passengers except,
ed, being the captain and the clerk. There
are two routes to Savannah by sea-one the
outer, and one the inner, route-and the St
Mary's being more of river than a sea
boat, only ventures on the outer passage
when the weather is calm. This being tho
case on the day that trusted myself or
board Of her, we made short and pleasan,
passage, leaving the barbor. Of Charleston al
