"Ah T. says William, abstractedly, 'the
day is hours
any children" says the General in con-
tiuuation, 1--WE have pushed the enemy to
the wall without fracturing the Constitu-
tuition, and have only put the war back six
months. We can say with pride, my chill
dren, that we belong to the Army of Duck
Lake, and shall have no more Bull Runs
My children, love you. Accept my bless
ing"
We were rejecting upon this soul-stirring
speech, my boys, and silently admiring the
strategy which had brought us all together
again so soon, when the sound of drum and
fife called our attention to a club of politi-
cal chaps who had just arrived by steamer
from the Sixth Ward, and were filing past
US to platform recently erected in the very
center of Paris.
81 do believe" says Captain Bob Shorty,
whisperingly, al do believe we're going to
have a mass meeting"
Onward went the political chaps to the
platform.
A delegation mounted the steps, advanced
to the front rails, and commenced unfurling
a vast linen banner. The sun was just set
ting, my boys, and as his parting beams fell
upon the uplifted faces of the political chaps,
a soft breeze unrolled the standard, and the
Mackerels read upon its folds
REGULAR CONSERVATIVE NoMINATIoN.
FOR
PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES
IN 1865,
THE GENERAL OF THE MACKEREL BRIGADE:
10000.
Shall it be said, after this, that republics
are ungrateful l think not, my boy-I
think not. We have won great &C glo-
rious victory, and the only remaining ques-
ton to be answered is, who is responsible
for it, my boy, who is responsible for it.
Yours, in bewilderment,

A broker took it for FIVE years, my boy,
with the privilege of extending the time
after each fresh victory.
Speaking of victories, my boy, l was
present at the recent series of triumphs by
the Mackerel Brigade, on the left shore of
Duck Lake, and witnessed a succession of
feats calculated to eliminate either in the
fall of Richmond or the fall of the year.
From the headquarters in the city of
Paris to the brink of Duck Lake, the Mack
erels were drawn up in gorgeous line of
battle, their bayonets resembling somewhat
an uncommon head of steel hair, and their
noses looking like wavy strip of summer
sunset. By their last great strategical ma
noeuvre, they had lured the Southern Con-
federacy to court its own destruction by
fanking tnem at both ends of the line, and
they were only waiting for the master mind
to give them the signal.

"Comrades, the general depends on you

says Samyule, feelingly, " to have the COM

had not time to wait, as they desired to

Heat of the Human Body

One of the most useful instruments
which the ingenuity of man has devised
is thermometer. This instrument does
not enable US to estimate the actual guam
tity of heat contained in a substance, but
it indicates the proportion of that subtle
element which is sensible-that is recog-
nizable BY the sense of touch. The dusky
Hindu, clad in his solitary cotton garment.
and the Laplander in his suit of fur. are
placed under the most opposite directions
in relation to the heat of the sun; the In
dian is exposed during the whole year to
Sols most ardent beams. whilst but q
scant share of its genial rays goes to warm
the body of the Laplander. But, if we
place the bulb of a thermometer beneath
the tongue of Hindu, we would find
mercury to stand at go of Fahrenheit's
scale, and if we repeated the experiment
on a Laplander we would obtain an iden-
teal result Numerous experiments of
this nature have been made on individuals
in most parts of the world, and the results
have proved that the temperature of the
blood of a man is 9S' Fahrenheit's, wheth-
er he be in India or at Nova Zembla, on
the steppes of Russia. or the elevated plat
teaus Of America This inyariblity of the
temperture OF the bodies OF men appears
the more wonderful when it is considered
that the range of the temperature of the
medium in which they exist exceeds leO9
Fahrenheit's.
The human body resembles, in some
degree. steam boiler with inumernable
safety-valves in the form of pores in the
skin. Perspiration is s-caused by the heat
of the body converting the water in the
animal frame into vapor, which escapes
through millions of pores in the euticle.
The expansion of this vapor over the
whole surface of the body exerts 4 refrig-
Grating action for the removal of the sur
plus heat from the animal system. When
the pores of the skin are closed and per
spiratiOn prevented. the surplus heat gem
Grated in the body is prevented from es-
Gaping, and a fever ensues. A clean cut
icle is as necessary to health, as good pure
water.-,Sicntihc Im,rtcaa

The Missing Link Society.

An association bearing this attractive
title, has been formed in New York, and
is auxiliary to the New York Bible Soci.
ETY.. Its managers are all ladies, who
employ only their own sex, whom they
call Bible readers, to visit the homes oi
the degraded, and exert what power they
possess to elevate them. The Bible is
read, its teachings explained, and copy
of it given or sold TO the family. This
enterprise has now progressed for one
year, and promises we'll for the future.
One of the visitors reported the condition
of one thousand families, whose spiritual
necessities she had tried to relieve in the
short space of three months. She had
also exerted much influence in getting
the children sent TO the public and'to the
Sunday-schools. s
1t is a cherished feature of the Society
to appeal directly to the wife and mother.
and through her to the husband, by
teaching her how she can make her house
attractive TO him; to elevate the tastes OF
the children, and instruct them in their
share of household unity and peace
These younger members are often made
the most powerful instruments of reform;
for the rude nature may listen unawares
to good lessons in the innocent prattle OF
a beloved child, when it would treat with
scorn a remOnstrance from an older and
less pure source. These welders of the
missing link, in homes made desolate by
absence of moral law, are exposed to
every disgusting contact, havinassothmg
10 protect them but the mantle Of purify
which their mission throws about them.
Each of the ladies. who superintend the
affairs of the Society, choose and regulate
the sphere of movement for one especial
visitor, the whole result of their work to
be placed before the meeting which is
convened once a month. .--, s.|...-
