Origin of an Old Custom,

The practice of using sautations to
those who sneeze, is generally dated from
the pontifcate of Gregory the Great. 1t
is said that in the time of that prelate
there was SO contagious malignity in the
air, that those who unluckily happened to
sneeze frequently expired. This made
the pontitf enjoin on the faithful certain
prayers, accompanied by wishes that they
might he saved from the dangerous effects
of the corruption of the air. This is a
fable, invented contrary to probability, it
being certain that custom existed from
the remo,est antiquity in almost all parts
of the world.
We read in mythology, that the first
sign of life given by man whom Prone
theus formed was sneezing. This pre-
tended creator, We are told, stole part of
the rays of the sun, and with them filled
a vial, which he sealed hermetically, and
then returning with speed to his favorte
work, presented to it his flask open. The
solar rays had lost nothing of their activ-
ity. They Immediately insinuated them
selves into the statue and made it sneeze.
Prometheus, transported at the success of
his machine, had recourse to prayer, and
uttered wishes for the preservation of that
extraordinary being.
The Jewish Rabbins, speaking of this
custom, tells US that, after the Creation, a
universal law was framed, the purpose of
which was, that every living man should
sneezc but once and that, at the same in
slant, be should render his soul to God,
without any previous indisposition. Jacob
they say, humbled himself before the
Lord, and prayed with the utmost earnest,
ness to be exempted from the general
law. His prayers were heard, for he
sneezed, but he did not die. All the
princes Of the earth, being informed of
the fact, ordered with one accord, that
for time to come, sneezing should be &C
companied with thanksgiving, and wishes
for the prolongati, of life.
We may trace, from these fctions, the
origin Of that tradition and history which,
long before the establishment of Christian
ity, accounted for the rise of this piece of
civility. 1t was looked upon as very
ancient in the time of Aristotle, who did
not know its origin, and has investigated
the reason of it in his problems. He
MAINTAINS that the first men, pycpossessed
in favor of the head Gas the chief seat of
the soul.) have carried their respect for it
so far as to honor even sneeze, one of
its manifest and sensible operations. This
gave rise TO the different forms of compll-
ments used on like occasions among the
Greeks and Romans-"Livew "Be we'll"
MAY Jupiter preserve you y and among
the English, "God bless you!' &c.

IMAGINATIoN.-A contented citizen of
Milan, who had never passed beyond its
walls during the course of sixty years,
being ordered by the governor not to stir
beyond its gates, became miserable and
felt so powerful an inclination to do that
which he had so long conteutedly neglec-
ted, that on his application for a release
from this restraint being refused, he be-
came quite melancholy, and at last died of
grief. The pains of Imprisonment, also,
like those of servitude, are more in con-
ception than in reality. We are all pris-
oners. What is life but the prison Of tho
soul?

A Sensible Opinion.

In the winter of 1860-61, made NOM
orable by the secession of the Southern
States from the Union, Senator johnson,
of Tennessee, now President of the United
States, delivered speech, in which he
said:
l think, sometimes, it would be almost
God-send if Massachusetts and South
Carolina could be joined together like the
Siamese Twins, and separated from the
Government, and taken off into some
remote, some secluded part Of the ocean,
and fastened there, to be washed by the
waves and cooled by the winds, and after
they had been there sufficient length of
time, the remainder of the people of the
United States might entertain PROPOSE
ton for taking them back."
In view of the fact that these two States
have been the cause of all our National
troubles, we do not wonder at the remarks
of President johnson, and his opinion is
endorsed by every conservative citizen and
well-wisher of the Union. Abolitionism
and Notification are the leading causes of
all this bloodshed and devastation of the
last four years, and their birth place was
in Massachusetts and South Carolina.

A Dark and Gloomy Bridal.

We have heard of some dark scenes,
but rarely encountered anything SO utter
ly deficient in sunshine and whitewash as
the following. 1t reads like a yard of
Grape -
Gloom was on her countenance and upon
his. The man whose holy office it was
to unite them in bonds, never to be torn
asunder, stood like an executioner before
the bride and the bridegroom, and they
the pair to be blessed-bent down their
heads like criminals before him. In vain
might the eye wander about the assembly
in search of sunshine upon a single coun.
tenance; all was dreary black-assistant
at the ceremony were alike shrouded in
one dark -shadowing pail of rayess
gloom. All !! joyful should ever be the
linking of young hearts together and
terrible must be the feelings of those
around whom shadows of fate are gather
ing, even at the threshold, which should
blaze in all their gorgeous coloring of
hope and promise. Yet the same sombre
shade, the same hue, the depth of dark
ness, was seated upon every feature. No
sudden blushipg of the rose, no swift suc4
oeeding of the lily, no itful changes tell
ing Of youthful passion, and warm, bright
hope, were seen on that brides cheek; but
one unvarying shade Of funeral black pos
sessed the groom, possessed the preacher
in fact, they were all possessed. Read
er, they were intelligent contrabands.

LONG SLEEP AT the last sitting Of
the Paris Academy of Science, paper
was received from DR.. Blanchet, on three
curious cases Of constitutional lethargic
slumber. One of them was of u lady "a
years of age, who having slept for forty
days at the age of Is, and twenty days at
the age of twenty during her honeymoon,
at length had fit of sleep which lasted
whole year, from Easter Sunday, 1862.
During this long period false front tooth
had to be taken out in order to introduce
milk and broth into her mouth. This
was her only food she remained motion.
less, insensible, and all her muscles were
in state of contraction. Her pulse was
low, her breathing scarcely perceptible;
there were no excavations, no leanness, her
complexion Has ford and healthy. The
other cases were exactly similar. DR..
Blanchet is of opinion that in such cases
no stimulants or forced motion ought to
be employed.

upon the United States National Guard to

officers therein, while being intelligent in
some things, were decidedly green in the
mysteries of the military. The 49th Ohio
National Guard, commanded by Colonel
DeWolf, were ordered to report at John
sons Island. One of the companies,
npon disembarking, was ordered to fall
in and march off by their captain, who
did not know single command, in this
wise: "Choose partners, gentlemen, get

HE WILL NOT woo AGAIN.

IT'S but word, careless word,
In pride and passion spoken;
But with that word the charm that bound
Two loving hearts, WAS broken.
The hasty wrath has passed away,
The bitter words remain,
In vain the lady Weeps and signs;
He will not WOO again.
No other love may light HER path
No other move HIS heart;
Yet changing seasons come and go,
And find them still apart.
Her once bright cheek is paler now,
His bears trace of pain,
Their days are sorrowful, and yet
He will not WOO again.
They meet as strangers, calm and cold
AS calm and coldly part
And none may guess that tranquil mien
Conceals the tortured heart.
To him the world hath lost its light,
For her all joys are vain,
Nor hope nor memory brings relief
He will not WOO again.
Alas that love, long tried and warm,
Should wither in an hour
Alas that pride DER human hearts
Should WELD such fearful power
Oh weep thou not for those who die
For them all tears are vain,
But weep DER living hearts grown cold,
Who meier may love again

Charity Twice Blessed.

All over the South, there are families
and even neighborhoods, not yet recovered
from the shock and ravages of war. The
white women are mainly widows; the
children are orphans; they have been
stripped of food, and animals, wagons,
and almost everything else, by one pass,
ing army or another. Their fences are
burned-often their buildings also--they
lack seeds, implements, teams-in fact,
everything. Day after day, they sit mo.
ping or crowd listlessly about, "drawing
rations' wherever the Government issues
any-doing nothing, because they have
nothing to do with-falling constantly
into deeper and still deeper want, misery
aud despair.
One Million Dollars, judiciously dis
tributed among the best and neediast Of
these people, would add many times that
amount to next years harvest, and save
thousands from perishing. The seeds
and implements it would buy would raise
thousands forthwith from famine and de.
spair to industry and comfort. Let us

True, there should be great "Crcdit
