Items About Chief justices,
The New York Tribune says

The New York Tribune says:
Tho position of Chief Justice has
been filled, since it was created by the
Federal Constitution by four PERSONS
namely: l John Jay, of Now York; 2
oliver Ellsworth, Of Connecticut; 3 John
Marshall, Of Virginia; 4 Roger b. Tar.
ey, Of Maryland. Messrs Jay and
Ellsworth were respectively nominated
by Washington; and each resigned
after serving but few years only
Judge Marshall was nominated by
John Adams, just before his retirement
from the Presidency; and Judge fancy
by General Jackson, in the latter half
ofhis second term. Marshall took tho
office in his maturOr prime, and held
it over thirty four years, dying in it at
the ripe age of eighty. Tanoy accept
cd it when nearly sixty, yet held it al
most thirty years, dying Chief Justice
al, the ripe age of eighty.seven, AS
Ellsworth lived to be seventy-two, and
Jay to be>ninety.three, tho Office may
be deemed favorable to longevity, and
we may reverently hope that its new
incumbent has many years of vigor

Uncle Sam went on his way rejoicing,

MULLER,s EXECUTION.

The last great cosmopolitan sensa-
tion has passed away Franz Muller,
the distinguished German, who estAb-
lished the fact that English railway
cars are not constructed upon princi-
pies in keeping with the dictates of the
Society for the Advancement of Social
Science, like other great discoSererl,
has been sacrificed. On the morning
of the 18th of November be was hang
ed in front OF Ncwgate's black walls,
amid the gaze and shouts Of one hun.
dred thousand people, men, women
and children. While the doomed man
stood on the drop with the rope about
his neck, the following colloquy took
place between him and the Rev. DR..
Cappcl:
DR.. Cappell-Mullcr, in few min
utes you will stand before God; ask
you again, and for the last time: Are
you guilty or innocent?
Muller-I am innocent.
DIR, Cappoll-You are innocent.
Muller-God knows what have
done.
DR., Cappell-God knows what you
have done? Does he know, also, that
you have committed this crime?
Mailer Yes, Ldid it.
These were his last words. The
drop fell, and he soon ceased to live.
So greatly relieved was the Reverend
gentleman by his confession, that he
rushed from the scatfold, exclaiming,
THANK God thank God |" and sank
down in a chair, completely exhausted
by his own emotion.

influence of Food upon the Intellect.


Very few well-ihformed persons dis
pute the fact that the nature Of food taken
by man has an influence upon his brain or
mental power. It is unquestionable that
certain kinds Of food are Injurious to
beasts, and produce or tend TO induce dis
ease and this peculiRrity has a proper
tionate evil effect upon the animal part Of
man. Other matter taken into the system
for refreshment or luxury, such as drink
or narcotics, has also some influence upon
the character Of those who partake of it.
National traits and characteristics are
thus developed, and we see Germans and
Hollanders heavy, slow thinkers, solid
rather than brilliant, and given to slug.
gishness rather than bodily activity. Can
not the cause Of this be found in the guam
tity of beer, tobacco and highly seasoned
cookery which is consumed by the people !;
and may we not trace some of the promi
nsnt traits OF the French character to the
quality of the diet and drink they subsist
on Whstever conclusion we may ar
rive at for the question is an open one
and susceptible Of much discussionl, we
may not venture to dispute the results Of
actual experiments on this subject, made
by learned physicians; some account Of
their researches We append herewith:
In the excellent work of Prof Mcles-
ohott, Of Zufich, Lehrs der NGkrungsHittsi,
fur dds Volk; the influence Of diet on
the intellect is dwelt upon at great
length. " 1t is a well-kuoWn fact" says
this philosopher, that changes Of food
has transformed the wild cat into the do
Ia
Orous animal, with short intestines, il has,
by gradually becoming accustomed to 9TH
er food, become transformed into another
being, enabled by long intestinal canal
to digest vegetable food, which in its nat
ural state it never touches. Food, there
fore, makes the most rapaeious and peri
dious animal in the world an inmate with
man, agreeing with children, and rarely,
except to a elese observer, revealing its
former guileful character. Are we, then,
to wonder that tribes Of men become ar
dent, phlegmatic, strong or feeble, ooura-
geous or cowsrdly, thoughtful or unintel-
ligent, according to the different kinds of
ahments they take7 If food is trans
formed into blood, blood into nerve and
muscle, bone and brain, must not the ar
dor Of the heart, the strength Of the muscles,
the frmness of the brain, the activity of
the brain, are dependent upon the cOustit-
uents Of food ?" Again, in treating of the
diet Of the artists and literary man, tho
authov states that " Well.baked bread
and lean meat, combined with young veg
etables and such roots ss are easy Of di-
gestion and contain considerably proper
ton Of sugar, from a wholesome diet for
thinkers and poets large quantity Of
leguminous seeds, heavy bread, rich gravy,
and greasy meat, create those irritable,
morose, and almost always slendar states
men, who have permitted gloomy thoughts
and glOOmy,imaginations to eclipse all hap
pier views of life in them, or that they
have come to consider rods and fstters as
the most important promoters and proteo
tors Of civilization. ."-Scisnffc American
