wortts Remembering.

The following article from DIR. Halls
journal of Health, contains practical
hints on various subjects, that are worth
attention:
1t is unwise to change to cooler clothes
except when you first get up in the
N morning.
Never ride with your arm or elbow
outside of any vehicle.
The man who attempts to alight from
steam car while in motion is fool.
In stepping from any wheeled vehicle
while in motion, alight from the rear,
and not in front of the wheels, for then,
if you should fall the wheels cannot run
over you.
Never attempt to cross road or street
in hurry, in front of a passing vehicle;
/ for if you should stumble or slip, you
will be run over. Make up the half min
ute lost by waiting until the vehicle has
passed. by increased diligence in some
other direction.
/; 1t is miserable economy to save time By
i robbing yourself of necessary sleep.
If you find yourself inclined to wake
up at a regular hour in the night and re-
main awake, you can break up the habit
in three days by getting up as soon
. as you wake, and not going to sleep
again until yonr usual hour for retiring.
or retire two hours later and rise two
hours earlier. for three days in success
sion; not sleeping a moment in the day
time.
Ii infants and young children are in
clined to be wakeful in the night, or very
early in the morning, put them in bed
later and besides, arrange that their
day nap shall be in the forenoon.
"Order is heavens first law" regular
ity in eating, sleeping and exercise. has
very large share in securing long and
healthful life.
If you are caught in drenching rain,
or fall in water, by all means keep in
motion sufficiently vigorous to prevent
the slightest chilly sensation until you
reach the house; then change your cloth
ing with great rapidity before blazing
fire, and drink instantly pint Of some
hot liquid.
To allow the clothing to dry upon
you, unless by keeping up q vigorous
exercise until thoroughly dried, is sui
cidal
If you are conscious of being in &
passion, keep your mouth shut for words
increase it. Many person has dropped
dead in rage.
If person "faints," place him on
his back and let him alone, he wants ar
terisl blood to the head; and it is easier
! for the heart to throw it there in hori-
zontal line than perpendicularly.
/ If You want to get instantly rid of q
beastly surfeit, put your finger down
your throat until free vomiting ensues,
and eat nothing for ten hours.
Feel noble pride in living within
your means, then you will not:be hus-
tied off to a cheerless hospital in your
last days of sickness.

High Life in washington.

A Washington correspondent of the
independent says 4:
There was a sight to be seen in broad
daylight few days ago, in front of the
Presidential Mansion, which gave those
who witnessed it shocking idea of the
onward strides which the vice OF intem =
perance has made in good society during
the last few years. A woman clad in the
richest and most fashionable garments,
with diamonds flashing from her slender
fingers in the slant western sunshine, sat
upon the stone balustrade. unable to pro-
coed upon her homeward walk without
betraying herself. AT last she rose and
started on, swaying to and fro, and yet
soon rested again, utterly unable to pro-
ceed. The carriage of foreign minis
ter passed blythe poor woman was no.
ticed-- and it turned, stopped and took
in the lady, and carried her to her luXu'
rious home. For the lady is wealthy,
and occupies high social position ; but
she was drunk in the streets of Washing
ton.

MistelIaneous.
The subiuRation OF the south.

The following is an extract from
Gov. SeJ mour's speech at New York
city,
Now, / assert that the people Of the
North are as deeply interested in preserv-
ing the Constitutional rights Of the South
as the people Of the South themselves
are. You can have no peace in the land
while one third of the people feel them
selves wronged and inbred and trampled
upon. Every man knows you can have
no peace in the land unless the people
stand on the same platform as regards
their Constitutional rights and privileges,
and enjoy equal terms in all respects
with reference to the Government. But
on the other hand suppose we waste
more money, and more blood, and treas
ure; suppose we encounter all the haz-
ards of a prolonged war; suppose we are
so fortunate--indeed so unfortunate--as
to be able to subjugate the Soutb--what
then? l tell you such a peace as that is
no peace in any sense of the term.
Subjugation makes occupation necessa-
ry; il necessitates O waste of treasure; it
keeps up the cost of the war; it demands
the waste of blood and treasure, and the
life of the people, for all know that life
is wasted on Southern soil--wasted un-
der the Southern sun-in moments Of
inactivity, as we'll as in active service.
Such peace-if not mockery and a
snare to call it peace--mcans what ?
That the people of the North are to main
tain great armies; to send, forever, their
sons under one perpetual conscription.
to hold their brethren of the South in an
unwilling --subjecton. Applause II
not conciliated, if not reconci, ed by gen
erous treatment, what hope is there fol
peace But what is the proposition
That they shall be held by military force
at the expense Of life and treasure, aye
and at the end, at the expense Of the
liberties of the people of the North
[Cbeers. What would be our resolve
under like circumstances What mar
would be so mad who would dare say
in the face of the people-if perchance i
had been our sad misfortune to be bro
in collision with the Government-tha

Artcm Ward ON the War.

Not many more cute things aave been
said on the political managers of this war
than the following which occurs in Arte-
mus Wards famous lecture on ''ghosts:" ;"
"The last subject of which I thought
was tho war. When l was an appren-
tice to the Printing Business in New
Hampshire, having had controversy
with my employer, l ran away. l had
no money, and could not beg, SO l called
at farmhouse and asked if they had
any clocks to mend They said yes, and
wished would fix it. l took the clock
to pieces. ate my dinner, and then look
ed at the table where lay the countless
wheels. l knew that could not put
that clock together again. So l told the
folks l was dizzy. and would go out and
get some fresh air. and l fled across the
meadows like the bright-eyed gazelle or
anything else that goes quick. These pol
iticians who went to work to take the
Union clock to pieces to get their dinners,
never meant to put it together again.
They have stolen their dinners, but they
will not restore the clock. l haven't
told you much about the ghosts. and it is
so late now that there is not time. But
l shall speak in San Francisco in about
four weeks from this time. and all who
hold tickets to this lecture will be admit
ted free.

The Sorghum Crop.

The Sorghum crop in the West, thi,

The planting season was late, cold and

This state OF affairs will seriously in

which we had hoped to see carried for.

syrup and sugar from the sorghum, since
the working Of imperfect stock cannot
give as satisfactory results, as il the cane
was in good condition.
Another serious question in this cate
CORY is, as to how the seed is to be OBJ
tanned for next years planting. In ma
ny places the seed is ruined by the IN.

when the seed did nQt mature in this re-

destroyed the hope Of supply from that
quarter. and If we turn to the old world,
we encounter the risk Of mixed and nm

Joking on n Tendersy sub,cc,

with an arm1oad Of cranberry tarts. CO..

"Your name is S. p. Chase, and I'm

The Secretary being a man Of figures
If not facts, didn't calculate upon such
levity, and thought it subtracted from
the Presidential dignity. He therefore
called the joker's attention to the condi-
tion Of the contrabands, and said that
green seal champagne and Havana cigars
were needfui for their relief. He added
tba. several Of them had too much boil

Astonishing the Clergy.

A correspondent from Whitewater,
Wisconsin, sends us the following Incl
dent, which though reprehensible, is
comical
Frank B--s, mad wag of this
town, famous for his practical jokes, re-
Gently played off a rough one on a cler-
gical convention. A convention of
Methodist ministers was being held there,
lasting for several days. Delegates came
from all parts of the State. AS is usual
upon such occasions, the strangers were
quartered upon the brethren of the church
wherever convenient, a committee being
appointed to meet them upon their arri-
val at the depot, and assign them abid-
ing places. Frank happened to be at the
depot on the first day. and observed that
good clothes went about as far with the
brethren as among the unregenerate.--
While well-drcssed delegate was sent
to the comfortable abode Of some veal
thy brother of the church, seedy, $500
a.year pulpiter was quartered with some
poor family in the suburbs. The mex
day he donned black cloak. white cho
ker, broad brimmed hat, and green spec
tacles, and taking a carpet bug in band
he jumped on a train that was entering
town. He easily found knot of dele
gates, and mingled with them and got OF
at the depot in their company. The re
ception committee was on hand to dis
pose of the pew comers.
"May | inquire your name?" asked on
of the committee, approaching Franl
with Notebook and peacl.
"Brother enberry, of Oshkosh"
"Well, Brother Dusenberry," said tn
committeeman, eyeing his seedy appear
ance, ave shall have to send you t.
Brother C--'s."
The place designated was the abode o
a lowly brother about three miles away
Frank had the committeeman to draw NJ
a diagram OF the route, which required
the xplanatory powers OF the entire com
mittee and several citizens to make him
understand, when, at last, seemingly
comprehending the distance he was re-
ouired to travel, he exclaimed, to the
astonishment and horror of the surround
ing clergy
"Send me way up there--three miles
if / can't be nearer the church, I'll b.
id if III go to the convention" an
he tramped off in apparent high dud
geon.
Committee and delegates were speech
less with dismay, but at length one o
the former hoarsely whispered
Frank B-s, the internal joker,
when the sell was explained.
