Smoking a Cause of Insanity.

The terrible ravages which tobacco is
making on the bodies and minds Of the
young, seems to be attracting the atten
ton of medical meu in various parts of
the world. In a pamphlet just issued by
DR.. Seymour, of London, Oh Private
Lunatic Asylums, and the causes of in
sanity of late years. the Doctor denoun.
ces with emphasis as one OF the produ-
ciug causes the practice of i'm moderate
smoking INDUCED in by boys and young
men at the Universities and "larger
fchools now called colleges" He says
that youths in their teens smoke forty or
fifty cigars daily, and that boys twelve
years of age may be seen early in the
morning walking the streets with cigars
in their mouths. The Doctors remarks
are as applicable to the youths of this
country as to those of England. No one
conversant with disease can doubt that
e1cessive smoking, especially in the case
of young people, ust be highly injurious
to both mind aud body. Its effect is to
depress the circulation-th heart be-
comes weak, irregular in its action, and
the pulse is scarcely to be felt. The VIC
TEN becomes irresolute and nervous, his
appetite fails, and his mind fills with i'm
aginary evils. This may continue for
years, but at length the smoker dies, Of
ten suddenly; then examination has shown
i that the muscular structure of the heart
| is imperfect in its action; the left side is
thin, and in some cases, in which sudden
death has occurred, there has been found
little more than strip of muscular fiber
left on that side.

NO23,
Exhaustion Of the Soil.

There is, on an average, about one
fourth of pound of potash to every one
hundred pounds Of soil, and about one
eighth of pound of phosphoric acid, and
one-sixteebth OF pound of sulphuric a.
cid. II the potatoes aud the tops are
continually removed from the soil, it will
soon exbau't the potash; il the wheat and
straw are removed, it will soon exhaust
the phosphate of lime, if corn and the
stalks, it will soon exhaust the sulphurio
acid Unless there is a rotation, or the
material that the plant requires, suppl
ed from abroad, your crops will soon run
out, though the soil may continue rich
for other plants.
An acre of soil twelve inches deep
would weigh, say 1000 tons. Accord
ing to the above figures, it would weigh
5000 pounds of potash. 1000 pounds of
phosphoric acid, and 1000 pounds fsul-
Pburic acid. Estimating that potatoes
contain 20 per cent, of dry matter, and
that Per cent, of this is ash, and that
half OF the ash is potash, We only remove
in crop of $50 bushels, go pounds of
potash. Say that the tops contain 20
pounds more, and We have potash enough
in an acre of soil to produce a crop Of
$50 bushels of potatoes each year for a
century A crop of wheat of 30 bushels
per acre contains about 26 pounds Of ash,
and half of this, say, is phosphoric acid.
Allowing that, the straw, chaff, &C., con-
tain pounds more We remove from the
soil in crop of wheat of 30 bushels per
acre, 20 pounds Of phosphorio acid
According to the above estimate, then,
an acre of soil contains sufficient phos-
phor;c acid to produce annually a crop
of wheat aud straw of so bushels per a.
ere, two hundred years.

The Travellers Tree of Madagascar.

This tree has been most celebrated for
containing even during the most arid sea.
son large quantity Of pure fresh water,
supplying to the Traveller the place Of
wells in the desert Whenever requir-
ed of the natives, they always affirmed
that such was the fact, and that so abun-
dant and pure was the water, that when
the men were at work near the trees.
they did not take the trouble to 60 to the
stream for water, but drew of and drank
the water from the tree.
Having formerly been somewhat scep-
tical on this poiut l determined to exam
inc some of the trees; aud during ID
journey this morning, We stopped near a
eluup of the trees. One of my bearers
struck a spear four or five inches deep in
to the thick. firm end of the leaf, about
six inches from its junction with the
trunk, and on drawing 1t back, stream
OF pure, clear water gushed out, about
a quart Of which we caught in pitcher,
and all drank of it on the spot. 1t was
cool. clear and perfectly sweet. On fur
ther examination, found that there was
no liberation of the water through any
part of the plaut, as | had been led to
suppose when | had seen water drawn by
Sir William Hooker, from one of the spc-
cimens in the palm house at Hew. There
was kind of natural cavity, or cistern,
at the base of the stalk Of each of the
lSaves, above its union with the stem, and
the water which had been collected on
the board and ribed surface Of the leaf,
flowed down groove or spout on the up
per side Of the stalk into this natural res.
ervoir, whence it supplied nutriment to
the tree, and refreshmeDt to the traveller
or to the laborer.
But in Madagascar this tree might,
with propriety, be called the 6uiller'S stree,
rather than the travellers tree. It's leaves
form the thatcb Of all the houses on the
j astern side of the Island The stems
of its leaves form the partitions, aud Of
ten sides of the houses; and the hard out
side bark is stripped from the inner aud
softer part, and having been beaten out
fat, is laid for flooring; and have seen
the entire floor of long, well-built house
covered with this bark, each piece being
at least eli htecn inches wide and twenty
or thirty feet long. The leaf, when green,
is used for wrapper for packages, and
keeps out the rain. Large quantities are
also sold every morning. in the markets.
as it serves the purpose of table cloth,
dishes and plates, at meals; and folded
into certain forms, is used instead of
spoons and drinking vessels.

piece of downright audacity to say the

throw Of this Union II adds:
''Disunion would be fatal in every
point of view to Black Republicanism.-
They know it well, and would seek to
prevent it, if they had the power and
could succeed, even at the point of the
sword. 1t is the strongest Union party

Buying A New Stove

The Toledo Bhsde tells good story of
young couple who set up housekeeping
the other day. A new stove was pur-
chased, among other traps. A fire ac-
cordiugly started by the mistress of the
house, the morning following her entry
on her responsible duties, when greatly
to ber surprise, and rot little to the
chazrin of her 'leiee lord" the flames
became extinguished and the room filed
with smoke. The stove had been warran-
ted and highly commended by the deal
er of whom it was purchased, and the
young husband. with Indignation flash
ing in his eyc., forthwith started for tho
stove-dealers establi>hme where be re-
lated the inability of himself and wife to
use the stove, and demanded that his
money should be Immediately refunded
him. An examination of the stove was
made, when it was ascertained that the
FIRE had been kipdled in the oven.
