CHILDREN "FAsHIoSABLY" DRESSED TT Q
absurd fashion of exposing children of tender
years TO the keen outdoor air, with but half
the necessary protection which their little arms
and legs require, is still so prevalent as to re-
quire a word of comment. 1t is true, fond
mother, that your chubby three-year-old boy
is finely modelled as the Cupid of Canoya is,
but the pleasure you derive in knowing that
other people admire the graceful roundless of
those limbs will never compensate you for the
anguish and watchings which ysu will expert
ence when he is attacked with Group or the
terrific scarlet fever. Strong men find it i'm
possible to spend half their time in the heated
houses of civilized society. and then go out of
doors with thinly-clad extremities, without
catching all the cramps that flesh is heir to. No
enc but Highlander, used TO the sky for a
canopy and the heather for bed, can 90 bare
legged-wit impunity in northern Iatitudes and
changeful spring and fall seasons Yet VIC
daily see little boys and girls dressed in the
shortest of clothes, with bare knees and arms
Redeemed and chspped by the cold Hundreds
Of innocents die yearly from this very cause
alone Win not all mothers who read this heed
the warning! Lyneh5nrg Virgiaian

ANOTHER POLAR ExPEDuTIoN.-A zeal for polar
discoveries seems to be awakening itself in other
parts of the world besides this county so that
more than one nation may yet have its vessels in
the Attic Sea this summer, struggling to reach
the long sought for pole. The Swedish govern
ment has just resolved to fit out scientific expe-
dition for the polar seas, to be placed under the
command of Herrell, who has already distin-
gHished himself by previous researches in the
northernly parts of his own country. The expe-
oltion sets out during the present month of MAY,
and will concentrate at Spitzbergen. II Is well
to make the attSfnpt to reach the north pole from
different points, as ii more generally happens thu
when the great inbarrier to the north of the
American continent is impossible, tits open north
of Europe.

The PERUVIAN GIANTs-MoRE EVIDENCE
We noticed a short time since the finding of the
remains of human head of an enormous size in
lot Of Peruvian guano, at Petersburg, Va The
Norfolk Day Book, of the 10th ult says that in
lot OF that fertilizer received at that port, has
oeen found the vertebTP of human being, about
twice the size of that portion of the human frame
to be found In those now living, which shows
thata rGce OF men Of extraordinary size inhab
lted that part of the world The same paper adds
that various bones Of extraordinary size have been
found The presumption is, that the workmen
have struck burial ground of some race of giants
and are exhuming them for the benefit Of agricul-
ture.
H The wheat crop in Georgia is beginning to
rlpen, and harvest will soon commence.
