THE PHILOSOPHY OF HEALTH.

Bread and butter" are the only arti-
Giles of food Of which we never tire for a
day, from early childhood to extreme old
age. A pound of fine -four of Indian
corn meaD contains three times as much
meat as one pound of butchers roast
besf; and if the whole product Of the
grain, bran and all, were made, into
bread, fifteen per cent more OF nutri-
ment would be added. Unfortunately the
bran, the coarsest part, is thrown away;
the very part which gives soundness to
the teeth and strength to the bones, and
vigor to the brain. Five hundred pounds
of fine flour give to the body thirty pounds
of the bony element; while the same
quantity Of bran gives one hundred and
twenty five pounds ! This bone is Cline"
the phosphate lime, the indispensable
element of health to the whole human
body, from the want of The natural sup
ply of which multitudes of persons go
into general decline" But swallow
ing phosphates in he shape of powders,
or syrups, to cure these declines" has
little or no virtue. The articles contain.
ing these phosphates must pass through
natures laboratory must be subject to
her manipulatious, in alembics specially
prepared by almighty power and skill, in
order to impart their peculiar virtues to
the human frame; in palmer phrase, the
shortest, safest, and most infallible
method of giving strength to the body,
bone and brain, thereby arresting disease
and building up the constitution, is to eat
and digest more bread made out of the
whole grain, whether of wheat, rye, corn
or oats. But we must get an appetite
for eating more and power of digesting
more. Not by the artificial aud lazy
methods If drinking bitters and taking
tonics, but by moderate, continued, and
remunerative muscular exercise in the
open air every day, rain or shine. And
that we may cal the more Of it, the bread
must be good, and cheap, and healthful !;
and that which combines these three quail
tiles to greater extent than any other
known OH the. face of the globe, as far
as we know, is made thus. y
To three quarts of corn meal add one
pint of bread sponge; water sufficient to
wet the whole; add one half pint of flour
and teaspoonful Of salt. Let it rise,
then kneed we'll, unsparingly for the
second time. Place the dough in the
oven, and let it bake an hour and half.
Keep on trying until you succeed in
making light, well-baked loaf. Our
cook succeeded admirably by our direc-
ton at the very first trial. 1t costs just
half as much as bread from the finest
family -four, is lighter on the stomach,
and imparts more health, vigor and
strength to the body, brain and bone.
Three pounds such bread, at FIVE cents a
pound for the meal. affords as much
nutriment as nine pounds Of good roast
beef, Costing at twenty five cents, $2.25)

AN EX-CLERK OF THE TREASURY
ARRESTED FOR STEALING GOV
EMINENT BONDS.

~
On the 18th of June, 1864, the Chief
Clerk and Superintendent of the loan
branch connected with the office of the
Secretary Of the Treasury addressed to
the latter note, stating that one hundred
bonds, partially prepared for issue, Of one
thousand dollars each, were missing, and
that he had exhausted all the resource
at his command in endeavoring to fins
them. AS they had not been signed by
the register or sealed they could not be
negotiated. The coupons, however.
amounting to one hundred thousand dol
lars, were sealed and complete, and pay
able to bearer on the lst OF January and
July of eachyear, and could be sold any
where. The Solicitor Of the Treasury
having employed two detectives Of this city
it was not long before they fixed upon
Wallace w, Whittlesy, clerk in the
loan Office Of the Treasury Department,
rs the guilty party; but it was not deem.
I'd advisable to make the arrest until
more conclusive evidence could be OBJ
tanned. Their suspicious were strengthen
ed by the fact OF his resigning his posi-
ton in the Treasury in December last,
aud ofhis living sumptuously without any
osiensible means On Saturday last the
detectives proceeded t, New York and
captured Whittlesy near the Western
Hotel, in CortI ndt street He confessed
his guilt, and sta ted to them where some
Of the coupons were concealed, namely,
in the chandeliers of his residence, where
they were subsequently, found; but the
bonds had been destroyed. On recover
ing all that was available of the stolen
property the detectives took their prison-
er rapidly to Jersey City to catch the train
Whittlesy quietly seated himself in the
car, but soon after the train had attained
its full speed he fastened to the door,
doubtless with the intention of jumping
off, but was pulled back. Finding him
self filled, he endeavorsd to attain sym
pathy from the passengers by accusing
the officers OF kidnapping him. He was
safely landed here this morning and con-
We led 10 the police headquarters, Whit
tlesy had sold some $4,000 worth of the
coupons, and made about So 200 on the
pl emium on the gold. He had no monay
when arrested, notwithstanding his hi Oh
style of living.

Of pumps-can be traced the fact that
fully one third of the entire number are
out of order.
Appropos of the church oisterns; con-
venience to the people, and safety to the
pedestrian demands that pumps be put in
them also, as it is they yield slow and
reluctant supply because of the manner
Of reaching it; and the msn-holes offer
man,traps TO the nocturnal pedestrian
who some night or other, will find, if not
a watery grave, at least very damp
vault. Gentlemen of the councils let the
people speedily have a supply of Wa
TER; the cost of wells and pumps are but
an atom, in comparison with the amount
of benefit afforded, and your speedy ac-
ton will afford the people one evidence
ofyour being awake and disposed to do
something for the amelioratioh of their
present unhappy condition.
Consistency demands that we should say,
at this time, that our views as to the
manner of introducing water into the city,
have undergone considerable change in
the last four or five years. 1t will be re-
collected by many of our readers that,
about four and half or FIVE years ago, we
advocated the introduction of water
thought pipes from distance, at that
time it could and would have been con-
sumated to our entire satisfaction, but
alas, the war caused the project to .'kick
the bucket" and the water was spilled,
At this time neither the people nor the
city, are in financial condition to warrant
such an undertaking but the small cost
Of street pumps, warrant us in again agi-
tating the water question, and we have
determined to aid the people in procur-
ing supply of water in this way, and
take advantage of more prosperous
times, to re-introduce and urge "water
works" sta
