TAKING CoLD.--A 'eold is not necessarily.
says the Scientific Anserican, the result Of
low or high temperature. A person may
go directly from a hot bath into cold one,
or into snow even, and not take cold. On
the contrary, he may take cold by pouring
couple of tablespoonfuls of water upon
some part of his dress, Or by standing in a
door. or other opening, where one part of
the body is colder than another. Let it be
kept in mind that uniformity of temperature
over the whole body is the first thing to be
looked after. It is the unequal heat upon
the different parts of the body that produces
cold, by disturbing the uniform circulation
of some part. IF you must keep partially
wet garment on, it would be as we'll, per-
haps, to wet the whole oft uniformly. The
feet are great source Of colds, on account
of the variable temperature they are subject
ed to. Keep these always dry and warm.
and avoid drafts of air, hot or cold, wet spots
on the garments, and other direct causes of
unequal temperature, and keep the sysseas
braeed up by plenty of sleep, and the eschew-
ing of facilitating food aad drinks, and you
will be proof against cold and its results.

visit to the ''Biship Hill Coony'-a colony
from Sweden, we believs-loeated in Henry
County, Illinois:
The Colony now numbers about 1000
persons Some months ago it was divided,
the seeding portion taking the name of the
"Bishop Hill Company" and receiving their
share of the property, though all live Oh the
domain as before. We were told that a gen.

as to give every man or woman his or her
share and thus to do away with the COM

a speciality with them, and they have now
about 3, 900 acres under cultivation. The
crop averages about tun to foar acres, and

FAREWELL TO GREEcE.-Bayard Taylor,
in his last letter from Athens, thus bids ten
der farewell to the land of colossal heroes
and mighty memories:
Let ne not lose the pensive sweetness and
sadness of Athens. The sun is rapinly sink
ing in the clear saffron light beyond the pass
of Daphenc, and purple flush plays along
the high barren sides of Hymettus. Before
me rises the Acropols with its crowns of
beauty; farthen0n, on whose snowy front
the sunset Of two thousand years have left
their stain In the distance is the musical
Egean, dancing with the whispering waves
to fill the rock hewn sarcophagus of Ihenais-
tocles. Plato's olives send silver Skinner
through the dusk that is creeping over the
Attic Plain. Many an evening have con-
templated this illustrious landscape, but it
never was as lovely as now, when look
upon it for the last time. Every melodious
wave in the long outline of immortal mount
ains-every sacred marble in the au,
gust piles of ruin every blooded anemone
on the banks of the Illisus, and every aspho-
dol that blossoms on the hill of ColIonus-I
know them and they know me. Not as
curious stranger do | leave Athens, not as
a traveller, eager for new scenes, but with
the regret Of one who knows and loves the
sacred soil; to whom it has been sanctuary
and home.

What Protection Shall we Have

1t is conceded that Lincoln is elected. -
It is question of importance now, "What
has the South for protection = Let us see.
!. The Supreme Court of the United
States
g. We should still have the United States
Senate; and
g. We shall have the United States House
of Representatives..
No bill could come before the Executive
for his signature that had not received the
sanction of both houses Of Congress. No
appointment could be made by him with
out the sanction Of the u. S. Senate.
But let us suppose that he attempts to
do unlawful things, that he attempts to Vi
olate the rights of portion of the people or
States Of the Union. or to transcend in any
respect the authority vested in him by the
Constitution and laws. What is the rene
dy? Impeachment by the House, and trial
and punishment if found guilty. Having
both branches of Congress on the side of
the South and the Constitution, can any
man doubt that they would perform their
duty? We should thus have three distinct
ramparts against aggression between us and
the President. Such course would be at
once dignifed, constitutional, safe, and
would raise up hosts of friends everywhere.
'Fhe sympathies of all conservative men of all
all classes would be our side, and with such
basis ofmoral and political power, and cor

tionalism, can any reasonable man doubt
that at the next election the Republicaa sec
tionahsts would be routed, horse, foot and

excitement prevails in consequence of the work

and intensified by the present absence of Arch
bishop Hughes from the city. The facts Of the
case, far our reporters have been able to ga

Mr.. John joyce, one Of the largest stonccuttcrs
in the city. is the contractor for doing the stone
work in connection with the erection of the ca
thedrnl. As the building is to be marble struc
ture. and the largest church edifce in the city
when compeled-it will occupy the entire block
from Filth to Eighth avenue aud between Fiiteth

the bulk Of the labor, to be performed, besides
being protracted job. The work of excavating
for foundation, which was commenced in July
last, occupied all the time. until recently, when
the stonecuters entered upon their duties. To
push the work forward with rs much swiftness rs
possible Mr.. Joyce employed from one hundred
to ono hundred and twenty-five men, To a few of
the workmen he stipulated to pny the regular
wages of stonecutters, 50 per day, and the re-

~ called, and committee appointed to wait on
Mr.. Joyce, and ask for an increase iu their pay.
Mr.. Joyce peremptorily refused to make any ad.
vance in the pay, and the result was that the
stonecutters stopped their work forthwith, the men
receiving 50 day stopping with the rest.
memorial is being prepared by the disaIected
workmen for presentation TO Archbishop Hughes
on his return to this city, which is soon expected.
His arrival it ia thought, will bring about spec.

is very certain that the work will have to be pro-
ceeded with, and that it cannot be done without
stonecutters.
