Tue FIRST NprIoE of CoHsuMPrIoN.-Th nose
i, to be regarded MS the beginning OF the lung APP
taralus, just as the mouth IS the beginning OF tho
digestive apparatus. The nose is one organ If
respiration, for animals breathe not thr ugh the
mouth. but through the nostrils. Then"se. too,
has its cough; sneezing is tho name affixed TO
this action. The nose thus viewed is II part OF the
breathing apparatus. and hence the reason ap-
pears why, if there is such state of the lung It's.
sue is ;ated with blood discharge, it is not
unlikely that this tendency existing also in tho
blood tissue of the nose. the discharge Of the
blood from the nose becomes prem0nitory. and
indicative of'he diseased changes in the lungs
What an admirable c0ntriynnce is it that the
discharge Of blood should thus he exhibited in
connection with the nose, since here the blood
escapes exteriorly whereas, iftaking place in tho
tissue of the lungs, suGoeaou, an asphy Of
the lungs wnnli bo caused. This nose bleeding
gives notice, which, il homeopahically attend
cd to, would prevent, in the majority of cases any
further development of the lung disease. 1t is
nature giving Warming and the wise physician
listens to the notice; but only he who is
omeopathically well informed in the pathogenetic
effects Of remedies can listen cfFectually.

Ancient Ruins In tho Unitod States.

Dim and mysterious is tho early history Of man
on this continent. II is enyoloped in thick dark
nesss, never it may be presumed, to be penetrated
by human research; and yet the ruins Of ancient
cities are frequently discovered that tell of race
that has long since passed away-probnbly exter-
minated by the present ancestors OF our present
Indians. who are also fast departing from tho hui
man family-fairly dying out before the ever
advancing influence OF the pale face. But these
monumental cities indicate great populations. and
prove the existence of mighty men Of old. A
new stimulus is likely to bo given to American
archaeology, by discovery recently made some
ninety miles northeast of Fort Stanton, a long nc
count of which has just appeared in tho Fort
Smith (Arkansas) Times. We condense. The
plain upon which lie the massive relics Of gorgeous
temples and magnificent halls slopes gradually
eastward toward the river Pccos. and is very fer
tile crossed by gurgng stream Of tho purest
water that not only snstains a rich vegetation,
but perhaps furnished with this necessary element
the thousands who once inhabited this present
wilderness.
The city was probably built by warliko race.
rs it is quadrnngular aud arranged with skill to
afford the highest protection against an exteri,r
foe, many of the buildings on the outer line being
pierced with loopholcs. as though calculated for
the use Of weapons. Several of the buildings nre
of vast size and built OF massive blocks OF dark
granite rock, which could only have been wrought
to their present condition by vast amount of In.
bor. There are the ruins of three noble ediicrs
each presenting front of three hundred feet.
made Of pnuderous blocks Of stone. and the dilap-
idatel wnlls are even now thirty-five feet high
There IRE no partitions in tho area Of the middle
(supposcd) temple, 50 that tho room must have
been vast; aud there also carvings in bas.re.
lief and trcsco work. Appearances justify tho
conclusion that these silent ruins could once boast
Of halls as Gorgeou-ly decorated by thol artists
band IA those Of Ihebcs md Palmyra. The
buildings are all loopholel in Zach side, much re.
semblng that found in the old feudn castles Of
Europe designed for tho use OF archcrs. Tho
blocks Of which these edllices composed are
ccmcntcd together by n species OF mortar of
hitumiuous character, which has such tcnaeity
that vast masses of wall have fallen down without
the blocks being detaeheday tho shock. We
hope, ere long, to be favored with full and desciip-
tive particulars, as it is probable that visits aud
examinations will le made amongst such ineres-
ting relies Of the unknown past by some of tho
United States officers attached to the nearest

With her eyes so sparkling bright,
And her skin 50 lily which,
Lips and cheeks Of rosy light
Tell you what;
She is Just the sweetest baby
In the lot.
All! she is our only darling,
And to me,
All her little ways are witty;
when she sings her little ditty,
Every word Is just as pretty,
As can be-
Not another in the city,
Sweet she.
You don't think so-yoG never say her;
Wish you could
See her with her playthings clatteringS
Hear her little tongue ehaitering--
Little danring feet come pattering-
Think you would
Love her just as we'll as Dc
II you could.
Every grandma's only darling,
J suppose
Is as sweet and bright blossom,
Is a treasure to her bpsoin-
Is as cheering and endearihg
As my rSse-
Heavenly Father. spare them to rs
Till Iife's close
OF course we've seen the brightest fiowe-,
Our AOIIie;
whose sparkling Orbs are bright
As the solar gems Of light
Blending on her cheek unite
Rose and Eiiy5
And she is in our b1weF
