Rarnn,ns.s WIfe--ChnrItr.

In a recent speech at his Museum, in New
York, the resuscitated Barnum made the fol-
lowing handsome allusion to his wife:
In the day of my prosperity made over to
my wife much valuable property, including
the lease Of this museum building-a lease
having about twenty-five years to run, and
enhanced in value to more than double its
original worth. sold the museum collection
to Messrs. Greenwood Butler, subject to my
wife's separate interest in the lease, and she
has received more than $50, 900 over and
above the sum paid to the owners Of the build
ing. Instead of selfshly applying this
amount to private purposes, my family lived
with due regard to economy, and the sa-
wings (strictly belonging to my wife) were de-
voted to buying in portions of my estate at the
assignees' sales, and to purchasing "clock
notes, " bearing my endorsement. The Chris
tian name of my wife is Charity. 1 may
well acknowledge, therefore, that I am not
onlya proper ''subject of charity but that
''without Charity am nothing"

Presbyterian General Assembly on Dancing.

Presbyterian General Assembly on Dancing.
The General Assembly of the Old School
Presbyterian Church of the United States,
now in session at Rochester, N. Y, has taken
the following action in relation to dancing =
On the overture from the Presbytery of
Cincinnati, on dancing, the following report
was made:
To the first question, VIZ: care social
dances and private theatricals included among
the sins forbidden by the Seventh Command
ment2" they make the following reply
That, while the pleasures of the ball room
and the theater are primarily intended by the
dancing and stage plays" forbidden, the
spirit Of the prohibition extends to all kindred
amusements which are calculated to awaken
thoughts and feelings inconsistent with the
Seventh Commandment as explained by the
Savior.
To the second question, viz: Is it the duty
of the church sessions to exercise discipline up
on those members Of the Church who send
their children to dancing schools, or who give
and attend dancing parties and if so, ought
such discipline to be carried to the extent of
exclusion from the sacraments, where other
means fail OF producing reformation Z" the
Assembly answer; That, while we regard
the practice of promiseous social dancing, by
the members Of the Church as a mournful in
consistency, and the giving Of parties (for-
such dancing) on the part of the heads of
Christian families, as tending to compromise
their religious profession, and the sending of
their children by Christian parents to the
dancing school, as a sad error in family dis
cipline, yet we think that the session of each
Church is fully competent to decide when dis
cipline is necessary, and the extent to which
it should be administered.
This paper was accepted and adopted with
great unanimity.

THE FRENCH Press AM. THE CoNTRIBU-
TIoNs FOR THE PoPE.-The Paris Constitu-
tionnel of late date, contains semi-oficial
article by NJ. Grandguillot on the subject of
St Peters pence In France, as well as in
Ireland, great efforts have been made of late
by the Ultramontane clergy to revive this
antiquated tax among the faithful. Collec-
tions from house to house, in schools and
seminaries and churches, have been set on
foot, and lay committees have been formed
% with great parade" as the Constitutional
says, " of Presidents, ice-Presidents, Secre-
taries and Treasurers." The Government
journals condemn this proceeding as not be-
ing really work of charity, as It pretends,
but purely political maneuvre, and one
which winds up the affairs of the Church
with an affair Of money. Its promoters are
reminded that it is illegal, that it was con-
demned even by st. Louis, and that Francis
l., when forbidding it, added that "i if his
Holiness should in consequence launch &C.
clesiastical censures against him, and there
by compel him to come to Rome for absolu-
ton, he would come so well attended that his
said Holiness would be only too glad to grant
what he demanded" The article insinuates
that the Imperial Government is too strong
to feel it necessary to interfere with these
maneuvres, and can afford to treat them with
the contempt they deserve.

preventing them from Pressing against or BEARING

makes II truly an ANTI-LACER, holding the skirts
away from the person. and drawing the flexible por-

throwing the entire support Of the skirts directly
upOn the shoulders through the elastic straps This
new and valuable invention is also designed to afford
immediate relief, and in many cases effect RADICAL
CURE OF ACUTE AND CHRONIC DISEASE, caused by
TIGHT LAcINGs as many who have used il for such
complaints can testify. These Waists have passed
the critical examination Of some Of our most eminent
and scientific medical men, who all pronounce them
the best thing OF the kind ever invented They are

RULES FOR Go1Ne TO S1ERP.-The
Sandusky Register has decided to give
the world the following most valuable
rules for going to sleep: G.a
l. Fix the thoughts on some ono
thing. If you can't do that, fix them
on two things. Fsz 'ens! You can
easily un6x them after you once get to
sleep.
2. Don't you go to sleep with your
head down against the foot board, or
your feet dangling on the floor. It
disturbs the electric current.
3. A writer recommends to suspend
a bass-drum over your head, within
your reach. and pound on it with your
fist. 1t will induce sound sleep.
I. Rolling the eye-balls is good, ex-
cept for blind people: II may be per-
manent injury TO the sight. Rolling
out of bed may be substituted in such
cases. <---.s tf.t

OF THE MOON UPON
HEALTH AND VEGETABLES. .

In considering the climate of for.
eign countries, the influence of the
moon seems to be entirely ignored by
modern savans !; but if the tides oi
ocean are raised from their fathomfess
beds by lunar power, it is not too much
to assert that the tides Of the atmos.
phers are liable to similar influence
this much is certain, that in the low.
lands of tropical countries, no atten.
tive observer of nature will fail to
witness the power exercised by the
moon over the seasons, and also ami.
NAL and vegetable nature. As re.
CARDS the latter, it may here be stated
that there are certainly /" thirteen
springs and" thirteen autumns," in
Demerara, in the year for so many
times the sap ascends to the branchet
and descends to the roots. For ex.
ample, the wallaba, "a resinous tree
somewhat resembling mahogany il
cut down in the dark, a few days be.
fore the new moon, is one of the most
durable woods in the world, for house
building; fence posts, etc. in that
state attempt to split it, and with the
utmost difficulty it would be riven in
the most jagged and unequal manner
that can be Unsigned. Cut down an
other wallaba, that grew within a few
yards of the former, at full moon, and
the tree can be easily split into the
finest smooth shingles, or into slaves

applied to house building purposes, il
