aries of the clergy of the United States do not
average i've hundrad dollars year, and yet as
a class, they are the best educated, the most
influential, the most active, refined, and eieva-

of their sous, one hundred and ten became min
isters and of the remainder of the sons, by far

which we do not remember to have seen no.

daughter of a clergyman" We will venture
the opinion that three-fourths OF the great men
of this nation are not over two degrees re-
moved from clcrgymen's families, or from fami-

a man or woman that the father, or grandfath-

US of a certain elevation of character, a kind OF
guarantee Of respectablity of blood, of purity
and integrity.

The English Language.

From a report of one OF Hon. George Marshs
lectures the English language, we take the
following interesting extract:
The number of good EngiisI, words in use
by good writer's could hardly fail! short Of l0O,-
900. But we knew these mainly as we knew
Greek, as book-words, and no, as the Ian guage
of speech. Even if IA man able, on extra
ordinary occasions, to bring into use in wordy
battle, half Of that number, he generally con-
tented himself with far fewer. Each individ-
ual nsed, in his daily life, rrleFtoTy OF words,
to some extent peculiar to himself one which
would furnish key to bis private history.
Few scholars used many 10000 English
words ordinary people, 3 600. Ina'l Shakes
peare there NOT more than 10000 ; III all
Milton, 5000. OF the Egypsian hyeroglyphies
there are but 5000 and it said that the
vocabulary of the Itali;.n opera was scarcely
greater. One man would say "a thonghiful
heart," another, . a grateful spirit" another
:" imagination - one describes his friends of
sangni' e temper ament another OF a hopeful
disposti. :" man = began to buiid,"
other "conmenced building :" each had his
own words, and stuck To them A of
controlled passion nsed plain words, while a
passionate man used many ntensives. Loose
thinkers contented themselves with general ap-
picatiors for large classes Of ideas, while logi-
cal thinkers used more and more specific words.
The arts demanded mere wcrds than any
thing else

Joy the full and free liberty Of thinking for him

the Judge of all.-John Wesley.
A woman made application to Justice Han
selman, in Cincinnati, on Wednesday, for a
divorce, on the ground that her husband WAS
confouhded fool The magistrate informed her
thet if that were held to be valid reason in
law, half the married women in the city would
be legally entitled to matrimonial separation.

A PARAGRAPH FOR MoTHERs.-A writer in
Blackwood's Magazine considers the prevailing
idea of toughen;ng infants to enable them to
withstand cold disastrous and destructive
treatment. Although it may be true that
young animals have higher temperature than
old ones, yet it is believed to be facl that
the younger the animal the feebler its power of
resisting cold. The process of" touyhening
may be carried SO far by cold water baths and
exposures to cold air suddenly and seriously
to chill the vital current. Exposure to the
open air and the vicissitudes of the weather in
the process of tonghening ought not to COM
mence until the child has obtained the free use
of its limbs. SO that his own activity may coun-
teract the exposure aud assist i'll the toughen-
ing process. Parents should not commence
this system of toughening when the child is
merely passive in their hands. The principle
is that the child must assist by its own activity
in the process of hardening. This is the true
line"

THE DIFFERENT AFRICAN RAcEs.-At late
meeting of the Boston Society Of Natural His
tory, DR. Bodiehon, resident of Algeria, in
Africa, presented paper of great interest on
the races Of that country, founded on his own
observation. He stated that there were two
white races one inhabting the mountains, the
Numidians or Berbers, and the Arabs. The
former small in stature, warlike, indepen-
dent, democratic, and polygamous. They dwell
in villages and plant vineyards. They are fine
soldiers, able to compete with Europeans.
They are not governed by laws, but refer their
difficulties to the first man that chances to pass
by Dr. B. considers them an indigenous race.
The Arabs are tall race, cf dark complexion,
equestrian, nomadc, warike, religious poeteal
and polygamons. They divide their time, a
bout equally, between fighting and praying
He also referred to a mixed race of Turks, aud
the women of the different tribes Of the coun-
try, which not having the stamina OF the pa
rent races, fas: disappearing before the
French Il found in the interior of Africa a
Germanic race, with blue eyes and light hair
who are probably the descendants of the AM
cient Carthagenians. They are polygamons,

possess the characteristic superiority of white
races-the enslaving of the neighboring blacks.

My opinion is, that the sun flower, in its
rank growth, absorbs the very elements in the
atmosphere that produce fever, or chllls and

highly obnoxious to the health of the human
