DAN CAsTELlo's GREAT SHow.-We opine that
1t will be no very fresh intelligence when we i'm
part TO our readers the fact that Mr. Dan CASTILLO
will visit Knoxville Friday next, the 9Th of
April. The handwriting upon the wall" has
made every man, wo man and child in the city, cog
infant that such will be the case and all our read
ers, far and near know it, as Dan (or his factots)
has awaited himself of the advantages afforded by
the employment of the advertising columns of the
WING. But the Daniel aforesaid is such clever
fellow, and his establishment and entertainments
are so respectable, and free from all that approx
mates to vulgarity, that feel disposed to say a
Kind word in his behalf.
The performances of Herr Lengel, with the
lions, are said TO be fearful TO an extreme The
animals have not yet been trained and although
the bold man can manage them while in the den,
when he is about to withdraw they spring towards
him and try TO catch him in their claws. Such q
performance although hazardous, appears to have
made the "Herr" a decidedly popular person among
those who admire sensational sights.

A Hundred Wears Ago.

One hundred years ago there was not a
single white mau in Ohio, Kentucky Indi.
ana, OF Illinois Territories. Then, what is
now the most ilourishing part of America
was aa little known as the Mountains of
the Moon. 1t was pot till 1860 that the
hunter of Kentucky. the gallant and adven-
turous Boone, lett his home in North Caro-.
lima to beooue the first settler OF Kentucky
The irst pioneer of OHIO did not settle tin
twenty years afterwards.
A hundred years ago Canada belonged
70 France, and tho whole population of the
United States did not exceed million and
a half aett5s
A hundred years ago, the egreat Frederick
OF Prussia WAS performing those exploits
which have made him Immortal in military
annals, and with his little monarchy, was
sustaining a singlS-handed contest with
! Russia, Austria aud France the three greal
powers of Europe combined.
A hundred years ago, the United States
We're tho most loyal people of the Britisl

PhIIosopiiy OF Exercise.

We take this instructive article from a
late number Of Halls Journal of Heatl:'
All know that the less wo exercise the
less health we have, and tho more certain
we are to die before our time. But com.
Iparaivoly few persons arc able to explain
how eXcroise promotes health Both beast
and bird in state of nature, are exempt
from disease, except in rare cases it is
becnns6 the indispensable instinct of search.
ing for thoir necessary food impels them TO
ccaseless activities. Children, when left
to themselves, eat great deal aud have
excellent health, because they will be doing
something all the time, until they fall asloep;
thus their whole existence is spent In
alternate eating and sleeping, and exercise
which is interesting and pleaswable. The
hoalth Of childhood would be enjoyed by
those of matured years, If, like children,
they would eat only whom they are hungry;
stop when they have done take rest in
sleep as soon as tl.ey are tired aud when
not eating and resting would spend the
time diligently IN such muscular activities
as would be interesting, agreeable aud
profitable, Exercise, without mental clas-
ticity, without enlivenment of the feelings
and tho mind, is of comparatively little
valu.
L. Exercise is health-producing, because
il works off and out of tho system its waste,
dead and eltoto matters; these are all con
verted into liquid FORM called by some
humors,' which have exit from the body
through the pores of the skin. in the
shape of perspration, which all know
is the result of exercise, when the body is
in n state of health. Thus it is, that the
persons who do not perspire, who have a
dry skin, are always either foverish or
chilly, and are never we'll and never eau
he ns long as that condition exists. Sc
exercise, by working out of tho system its
waste, decnyed and useless matter, keeps
the human machine lreo,' otherwise il
would soon clog up, aud the wheels of life
would stop forever
9 Exercise improves the health, because
every step man takes tends to imparl
motion to the bowels; II proper amount o
exercise keeps them acting once in every
twenty.four hours ! it they have not motot
