WALKING AND SLEEPING WITH THE
Mourn OPEN.-There is one rule which
should be strictly observed by all In taking
exercise by walking, as the very best
form In which 1t eau be taken by both
the young and the able bodied Of all ages,
and that IS, never to allow the action Of
respiration or breathing to be carried on
through the mouth. The nasal passages
are clearly the medium through which
respiration was, by our Creator, designed
to be carried on. Good breathed into
mans nostrils the breath Of life," pre-
yious to his becoming living Great
ure.
The difference in tha exhaustion of
strength by a long walk with the mouth
firmly and resolution closed, and respira-
sion carried on through the nostrils IN
stead of through the mouth, cannot be
conceived as possible by those who have
never tried the experiment. Indeed, this
misehieyous and really unnatural habit of
carrying on the work of inspiration and
really unnatural habit Of carrying on the
work Of inspiration and expiration through
the mouth instead of through the nasal
passages, is the true origin Of almost all
diseases Of the throat and lungs, bronchitis,
congestion, asthma and even consumption
itself
That excessive perspiration to which
some individuals are so liable in their
sleep, and which is so weakening to the
body, is solely the effect Of such people
sleeping with their mouths open And
the same exhaustive results arise to the
animal system with the mouth open, in
stead of-when not engaged in conyersa-
tion-preserying the lips in a state Of firm
but quiet compression. Children should
never be allowed to sleep, stand or walk
with their mouths open for, besides the
vacant appearance it gives to the coun-
tenance, it sometimes causes coughs, colds,
and sore throats.-D5 HdH

THE SOUTHERN CABINET.

The Departments of State, War, Navy, Trea.
sury, Justice and Post Office for the Provisional
government, were organized on the goth in.
stant. Hon. Robt. Toombs, of Georgia, is Sec
retary of State; Hon. C. G. Memminger Of South
Carolina, Secretary of the Treasury; Hon. L.
P. Walker, of Alabama, Secretary Of War; and
Hon. John Perkins, jr., Of Louisiana, Secre,a.
ry Of Navy For brief sketch Of each Of these
men, We refer the reader to another column
The Post Master General. and the Attorney Gen
ercl, have not yet been appointed.
The entire Cabinet when organized is under
the control of the President; and the heads Of
each Department are subject to his instruction
and direction in the administration of the gov
ernment. Their position, therefore, is entirely
subordinate to him and if they act contrary to
his will or his Interpretation Of the constitution,
they are "quietly hinted" out of the Cabinet
Their Office is to assist in subdividing the labor
Of the government, so that each Department may
receive the undivided attention Of an intellect of
superior experience and ability. Their remedy,
when the government is administered in mani
fest opposition to their sense Of right and of the
welfare of the people, is to resign; and this is
their method Of procedure. as in the case Of the
late designations, in the U. States Cabinet of
Secretaries Cass, Floyd and Thompson. Cabi-
net consultations are held upon all subjects of
prime Importance; so that, although the will
and judgment of the President are supreme
within the limits Of the Constitution, yet the
members of the Cabinet, being the "power be-
b ind the throne" the secret counselors and ad-
visers of the President, WELD o powerful infu-
ence over the Administration.
There is much ability and lofty patriotism in
the Southern Cabinet; and the new government
starts under kindly auspices for q career Of
great prosperity.
Since writing the above, We learn that Henry
T. Elet, of Mississippi, has been appointed
Post Master General; and J. P. Benjamin, of
Louisiana, attorney General.

WILLIAM MAXWELL MARTIN.

This name has disappeared this week from
the editorial heading of the ENQUIRER
Our friend is dead.
Our pen is resumed, readers of the ENQUIRER,
that we may speak to you of him. Those of you
who did not know him personally cannot know
how sad IN Office it is we hold; and yet, in its
bitterest phase, there is melancholy pleasure,
because ve have grateful things to say of him.
He died in his twenty-6fth year. He was a
graduate of Wofford College !; had taught school
for o number years and was preparing for the
legal profession. On the first call for volunteers,
he Joined the Columbia Artillery, under Capt.
Green, and proceeded at once to Charleston,
where he was stationed in Fort Moultrie until
few days before his death, when smitten by
disease he sought the shelter Of home and the
loving care of parents and family; and these
blessed his last moments. lie was among those
who FREQ upon the Star Of the Vest. Expo
sure in active service, on the night when the
Brooklyn was expected, led to his final illness.
Travelling from Charleston to Columbia largely
aggravated the disease, and determined its ty.
phoid character. He reached homeland in
diving hour how much is in that word home ON

Washington DISPATCHES.

WASHINGTON, February l9.-The pro.
ceedings of the Peace Conference yesterday
s. em to have demonstrated the impossibility
of any settlement. The Southern men held
caucus last night, and have resumed their
discussions at an early hour this morning.
1t is believed that they are preparing an
ultimatum, which will be rejected beyond
a doubt. A break up is then inevitable.
A number of letters from Boston shipown.
ers have been received here by Southern
men enquiriug whether they can get com-
missions as privateers under the Confederate
States. They say they are anxious for such
employment
SECOND DIsPATCH.-The Democratic
Senatorial caucus to-day determined to
make no factious opposition to the tariff or
other Abolition legislation, but to allow a
fair vote and rely upon the Presidents veto.
Stanton's Coercion Bill, intended to bring
down against the South the Northern mill
tia, has been made the special order for to-
morrow. 1t will pass.
The striking out of the appropriation for
the Pensacola Navy Yard from the Naval
Appropriation Bill to-day, is pronounced by

Arkansas.

Arkansas.
The latest news 10 regard to the Arkansas
election for State Convention. declares that
majority Of thirty delegates are in favor Of Sc
cession. Several counties, however. went large
ly in favor Of the Union and there will be nt
least twenty unconditional submissiouis,s in the
Convention. goodly number are conditional
secessonsts, Pence Congress men, who WILL if
no more, distract the counsels Of the delegates
who are for action. Arkansas. we fear, will
move slowly; but doubtless will be right in the
end.
The particulars of the occupancy Of the U.
States Arsenal at Little Rock by Arkansas troops,
have been brought to light. Under the impress
sion that the Governor had ordered them out,
some four or FIVE hundred men collected ut Little
Rock to assist in enforcing demand for the Ar
senal. The Gov. assured them he had made no
such call for forces But they had come there
to take the Arsenal, and take it they would be-
fore they returned home. The citizens prevailed
on the Governor to make formal demand of
Capt. Totten for the surrender Of the place
The Governor collected rs many forces as he
could speedily-about 1000 in all-iu order to
be prepared for any emergency; but the Arse
nal was surrendered, without a resort to arms,
by Capt. Totten.

THE MOUNTAIN EAGLE.

The first number of the Mountain Eagle-a
new paper published ut Shelby N. c., by D. B.
Ross Co., and edited by Thomas J. Eccles and
Samuel s. Ross-has reached our Sanctum, pre-
senting very excellent appearance. Mr.. Ec.
cles is well known in this State by his recent
connection with the Rock Hill Chronicle; and
in North Carolina, by a prior eight years con-
nection with the Courier, State Rights paper
then pub lished at Lincolnton. He wields clever
and racy pen and is Southern rights to the core.
We wish the Mountain Eagle much success and
prosperity, 10 the accomplishment of its "desire
to place North Carolina in the position she
should occupy as q member of the Southern
Confederacy."

DIRECT TRADE.

An English Steamship Company have made
proposals to cooperate with Charlestonians in
the establishment of line of steamers between
Charleston and Europe. The Mercury informs
US that meeting has been held, and the report
of committee appointed to consider the propo-
sails has been submitted We sincerely hope on
agreement can be effected and that ere long
this line of steamers will be in full and active
operation. The South must have more intimate
business intercourse with the great nations of
the earth, simply to vindicate her character, if
nothing else. We are told that the most super
cilious disrespect for the South reigns at all the
European Courts. Why? Because they know
nothing of US. And why do they know nothing
of US? Because we have so little direct trade
and intercourse with them.

VOLUNTEER DIVISION.

Mr.. Wright, Of Georgia, has offered bill, and
it has been referred to the Military Committee
of the Provisional Congress, for the formation Of
q "Volunteer Division" for the army Of the South.
ern Confederacy. The bill provides that the Di
vision shall consist of two brigades Of two regi.
ments, and each regiment Of two battalions, mo-
king eight battalions in ul in the Division. Each
battalion is to consist of blank number of com.
panies, and each company of blank number Of
men. All officers above the rank of Captain are
to be appointed; but any soldier, officer or pri
vate may be promoted over a superior, by ex-
traordinary services in battle. Such soldiers
may also be rewarded with meduls and badges Of
honor

NEWS FROM THE STATES.

The news Of Tuesday from Charleston declares
that the new floating battery has been launched
and is probably ready by this time for active
service. Seven car loads of shot and shells pass.
ed through Petersburg, Va, on Monday of las
week, on their way to Charleston. President
Davis was to be in Charleston on last Thursday
These facts indicate that war is close at hand :;
but it is stated that there will be none, until af-
ter the 4th of March, and not then if Lincoln g
inaugural is conciliatory and peaceful.
Some excitement was created in our town on
Monday evening, by n rumor that Fort Sumter
had been reinforced with 400 men on Saturday
night. No one, however, appeared to believe it.
The Daniel Webster has been seen off cape Ro-
main and this in connection with telegram
stating that stealthy reinforcement Of Sumter
had been determined on, placed the watches in
the harbor on the alert. The Daniel Webster
has since been seen further Southwark. The
rumor is defunct No reinforcement has been
effected.
1t is stated that Maj. Anderson is dangerously
ILL., DR.. Robertson of Charleston is attending
him daily.
Georgia.
The New York police under their chief, Ken
nedy's direction, have seized more arms belong
ing to citizens of Georgia. Gov. Brown has
again promptly made reprisals on their COM
merce, by taking three vessels belonging to par
ties in New York. He is man for the times
shrewd, bold and decisive.
The Court House at Milledgeville the capital
of the State, has been burned down. 1t is
thought to have been set on fire.
North Carolina.
To-day tho people of the Old North State vote
to remain in the Union, or to annex themselves
to the new Southern Confederacy. In few Of
the counties, there will be no opposition to the
secession ticket Mecklenburg is among that
number. Indeed, the people of this proud old
revolutionary county have preserved unsulied
its historic fame. We fear, however, that North
Carolina will "watch and wait"
Her Legislature adjourned on Monday-after
passing bill to raise 0,000 volunteers, author.
izug the Governor to enroll 10000 additional
men in case Of war, and appropriating $500, 900
to arm and equip the troops-leaving much bu-
siness in an unfinished condition.

Southern man by birth and in feeling, and was

FIRE.

We neglected to announce in our last weeks
issue, that a fire broke out in town on Saturday
night previous, and consumed one of the stables
on the back-lot of Col. VIM. B. Wilson. The
circumstances lead US to believe that it was the
work of an incendary. The building was some
distance from any fire and there were few if any
chances of its taking fire accidentally. We learn,
too, that few days prior to this occurrence, q
house was burnt down under similar circum-
stances at Col. Wilson's plantation.
