HOW TO BREATHE.

There is one rule 10 be observed in TAX.
ing exercise by walking very best
form in which it can be- taken by the young
and able bodied of all ages = and that is,
never TO allow the action Of respiration to
be carried on through the mouth. The ma
sal passages are clearly the medium through
which respiration was, by our Creator, de.
signed TO be carried on. The difference in
the exhaustion of strength by long walk
with the mouth firmly closed, and respira-
ton carried on through the nostris instead
Of through the mouth, is Uncomfortable to
those who have never tried the experiment.
Indeed, this misohevous and really unnat-
ural habit Of carrying on the work OF in
spiration and expiration through the m outh
Instead OF through the nasal passages, is Tho
true origin of almost all the diseases Of the
throat and lungs, as bronchitis, congestion
asthma, and even consumption itself. TNat
excessive perspira' ion to which some ind
Iiduals are so liable In their sleep, which
is so weakening to the body, is solely the
effect Of such persons sleeping with theil
mouths uhclosed. And the same unpleasant
and exhaustive results arise to the ANNA
system from walking with the mouth open
instead Of, when not engaged in converse
ton, preserving the lips in a state of firm
but quiet compression. As the heat ant
velocity Of the blood through the lungs de

ration and it is unavoidable that it shout,

Tho olds.t City in the World.

Damascus is The oldest city in the world;

A PICKLE FOR MEAr.-The editor Of
The Germantown Telegraph vouches for the
following recipe for curing meat, which, he
says, if once tried will never be abandoned
-"To gallon OF water take one and half
pounds salt, of sugar, satpetre and potash,
each half OF. In this ratio the pickle to
be increased to any quantity desired. Let
these be boiled together ill all the dirt from
the sugar rises 10 the top and is skinned
off. Then throw it into tub 10 cool, and
when cold, pour ii over the beef or pork, to
remain the usual time, say four or five
weeks. The meat must be well covered
with pickle, and should not be put down for
at least two days alter killing, during which
time it should be slightly sprinkled with
powdered saItpetre, which removes all the
surface blood, &c., leaving the meat fresh
and clean. Some omit boiling the pickle

We met with man, the other day, d.
rect from Oregon, where he has been re-
siding for some years past. He was on his
way to his home IN Michigan. He made
the overland trip with companion on pack
mules and horses. They met with but few
Indians, end was molested by them but
once-when four Of the red skins made an
attempt TO run off their stock. One Of them
was brought to the ground by well aimed
shot from double bsrreed shot gun in the
hands Of our inlormer, which had the effect
of soaring his companions TO very safe
distance. The Indian was killed. and his
horse and out fit secured. He had Spen-
GERS repeating rifle, which he had probably
obtained from some soldier or emigrant that
he had killed. Our informant is satisfied
with Oregon-don't like the country, and
says there are many more like himself who
are coming back to The States, and others
will follow suit so soon as they can obtain
the means TO do SO. He says if the number
of emigrant wagons that he met crossing
the plains, on his way in, were all put in a
straight line they would reach the distance
of at least five hundred miles, Pari:

WAsHIveroS, November 25.-Owine 10
the meagerness of the statement in the dis
patch from Mississippi published yesterday,
,pur porting to give the substance of Pres.
ident Johnson's instructions to Governor
Humphreys, the National Republican gives
q full copy of the dispatch, as follows:
H '4 WAsHrHaroH. November II, 1865,
TIC. G. G.. Humphreys, Governor Elect,
jackson, Mississippi:
The troops will be withdrawn fr-m Mis-
sissippi when, in the opinion Of the Govern
ment, peace and order and the civil author.
ily has been restored, and can be main.
tanned without them. Every step will be
taken while they are there to enforce strict
discipline and subordination TO the civil
authority
There can be no other or greater assn
rance given than has heretofore been on the
part of the President or Government.
There is no concession required on the part
of the people Of Mississippi or the Legsia-
ture other than lOysl compliance with
the laws and Constitution of the United
States, and the adoption of such measures
giving protection to all freedmen, or free
men, in person and property, without re-
gard to color, as will entlle them to resume
all their Constitutional relations in the Fed
eral Union. The people Of Mississippi
may feel well assured that there is no dis
position, arbitrarily, on the part Of the Gov.
ernment 10 dictate what action should be
had; but, on the contrary, to simply and
kindly advise policy that it is believed
will result in restoring all the relations
which should exist between the States com
prising the Federal Union.
1t is hoped that they will appreciate and
feel the suggestion herein made, for they
are offered in that spirit which should per.
wade the bosom of all those who desire peaci
and harmony and thorough restoration OF
the Union, There must be confidence be
tween the Government and the States, and
while the Government contides in the PEG,
pie, the people must have faith in the Gov.
eminent. This must be mutual and recip.
rocal, or all that has been done will BIZ

AN IMPORTANT Decision - CoYF GpER-
ATE MONEY REcoGNIzED.-The Lebanon
(Tennessee) Register says:
Al the October Term of the Circuit Court
of Cannon county, 1865. suit was tried
which was predicated upon a promissory
note payable in Confederate money due in
November, 1868.
Judge Cooper held, that inasmuch as the
United States had acknowledged the C,n.
federate States beiligerent power, that q
contract payable in Confederate money
made IN locality that was in the military
occupation OF the Con(ederates, would be
valid and binding upon the parties, and that
the plaintiff would be entitled to recover
whatever the proof showed the Confederate
money 10 be worth at the time the note
fell due.

We have some additional intelligence Of
the gold discovery recently made in Green
county, Pa. 1t seems the gold quartz vein
struck in the Amber and the Good Luck
wells has been discovered in the Evans well
near Taylorstown, at depth of four hun
dred feet, and also in the Clifton well in the
same neighborhood. One gentleman IN
prospecting on his land, discovered small
land slide, and on examining it found speci.
mems of quartz, which have been sent tC
Philadelphia to be assoyed. Specimens oil
quartz have also been obtained IN we'll or
Laurel Run, tributary of the Mononga'
hela, running parallel with, and about two
miles south OF Dunkard creek. Ii all Of
these specimens should prove to contain the
precious metal, the gold region of Greer
county will be found to be more extensive
than was at first supposed.

There is genuine war of races at New
Orleans between the Creole and American
citizens, all about the teaching of French
IN the public schools. The American ele-
ment has control in the city, and is deter,
mined that French shall not be taught, and
that the next generation of Creoles shall be
thoroughly Americanized. There are sto-
ries told Of old Creoles who will not speak
to an American nor read an English news
paper, and of old gentlemen who have all
their lives refused to take step north Of
Canal street. 1t is not at all strange that
this worthy people should demur at the
changes time has made, or that they should
rail against progress that almost ignores
the original founders of their descendants
the original proprietors.
