PROPORTIONS OF MANS FRAME-Nature
in the composition of the human frame,
has 90 ordsined that the face from the chin
to the highest point of the forehead whence
the hair begins, is teuth part Of the whole
stature; the same proportion obtains in the
hand, measured from the wrist to the
extremity of the middle finger. From the
top Of the chest to the highest point of
TIE forehead is aseventh From the nip.
pies 10 the top or The whole scalp is
fourth Of the whole stature If the length
of the face from the chin to the roots of the
hair, be divided into equal parts, the f st
division determines the place of nostrils;
the second, the point where the eyebrows
meet. The foot is the seventh part of the
hight of the entire frame; the cnbt and
the chest are each fourth. The other
members have been Ct lebrated of ancient
pain ers and sculptors, aud ell must lcok
for them in those productions, that have
produced universal admiration.
The navel is naturally the center point
OF the human body: if a man stould lie on
his back with hjs, arms sa.,d legs extended
the periphery Of the circle which may he
cenier, would touch The extremities Of his
hands and feet. The same afinites obtain
if applied in a square to ihe human figure;
for, like the contiguous sides, the hight from
the feet to the top of the bead is found TO
be the same as the distance from the ex.
tremity of the one hand to the other, if the
arms are extended. The standards accor-
ding to all sdmeasurments usually made
are also deduced from the numbers of the
body-.such as the digit, the palm, the foot
and the cubit - Benomi.

The Rebel View of the Late Battles
what Gen. Stuart Says.

The Baltimore correspondent of the Herald
notices the arrival there of gentleman, Ia resi-
dent OF Emmettsburg. Nd, } who had been taken
prisoner and paroled by the Rebels. This gen
tlemsn says he was placed rnder close surveil-
lance by Gen. j. E +. Stuart, ON Sunday, and
informed that he could not quit the town. Other
wise no restrictions were placed upon his ac-
tions
On that day he had long conversation with
Gen. Stuart. That officer informed him that he
had no doubt the Northern newspapers would
claim the result of the battles of the three pre-
ceding days victory, because Gen. Lee had
retired from before Gettysburg. "But," said he,
"before three DAYS more they will play another
tune. In those engagements Gen Lee has ac-
complished exactly what be intended, and if the
Union army follow us now, it will be they who
will never return TO their capital, and not we
can tell YOU this much: Gen. Lee is not retreat
ing, and will not leave the north side of the Po-
tomac until he has accomplished that for which he
crossed that stream
Gen. Stuart had at Emmettsburg l 600 cav
airy, in splendid condition. They left that place
in the course of the day, on receipt of dispatch
from Gen. Lee. They were the last Rebel troops
seen near Emmettsburg, at any point east of
the base of the South Mountain. | am unable to
say now whether Gen. Lees army has moved as
far as Hagerstown or not. But this know. that
if he desired to do on Saturday or Sunday he
could and has done so; for the report that the
passes in the South Mountain were held by Union
troops is entirely inaccurate On the other band,
all of those passes have been held all the time by
strong detachments of General Lees army. 1t
was through these passes that the mails from
Richmond to the Rebel army were transported

The states Must Arm.

Each State Government. says the Ledger of
yesterday. should organize and discipline mill
tia force to be kept constantly ready for service
in its defense or that of the General Government
Bv these means we shall always have prepared
for the emergency an army which can be depen-
ded upon to use vt the critical period of the war,
and niake victory certain. If we had possessed
force of trained militia, 25.00D or 10000 in
number. to hurl upon the flank of Lee in the late
battles, the defeat and destruction of his army
would have been certain, and at much less loss
of life than il has cost us The present wastefu
system OF raising troops for an emergency must
cease. With n proper reserve force, so many
emergencies would not arise. With disciplined
militia reserve. no force would have run the risk
of invading the loyal border States. The rebel
lion would be kept entirely on It's own soil, and
our armies would not be stopped in their progress
just at the critical juncture, as it so frequently
has been for the want of sufficient reinforcements
This is precisely the doctrine we have preached
for the last fortnight. 1t is the doctrine which
Governors Seymour and Parker have acted
months ago. The Constitution makes the Gov
ernor Commander in. Chief of the militia, and the
law prescr;bes the very mode in which the militia
Of the State is to be called out and organized.
Ii Is one OF the advantages of our Federal sys-
TEN that each State has the means of It's own de
fense. and that the States can thus cooperate
with the Government in Washington. But the
new tangled theories of centralism, and the die
tatorial powers assumed by the President. aim at
the destruction of the power Of the States. and
would reduce them to provinces utterly dependent
on what protection they may receive from the
Federal army Il Philadelphia Age.
