SUPPOSED HORSE THIEF>t F>tARREsTED.-
A man named Charles Mitchell was ar
rested in this place one day last week, on
suspicion of being horse thief He had
sold horse to man named Mulvehil,
residing in Indiana county, day or two
before, and the fact that the price asked
and paid was far below the value of the
animal, coupled with the other fact that
the man acted in strange and mysterious
manner and told contradictory stories,
gave rise to the suspicion that all was not
right. Mitchell was committed to Jail to
await hearing.

that one thousand men can easily perform
all the labor required TO exchange their pro-
ducts, and it is clear that we have liberated
two thousand from various non-productiye
employments or functions, and added them
TO the number of producers. Wehaye more
grain grown and more cloth made, more
wealth created and less capacity absorbed in
pursuits which. however necessary under
certain circumstances, add nothing TO the
sum Of human comforts.
The Protection we advocate is simply the
saving OF human labor. We maintain that,
instead of sending wool, grain and meet
from Iowa to England, and bringing back
fabrics in return, it is cheaper and better to
bring the fabrieapt, once for all, from Eng
land to Iowa or near it. and there feed him
from the products of our generous soil We
hold that the farmer and the manufacturer
are alike benefited by this course; and that
it insures to each fuller reward for his la
Dor, and larger measure of sustenance and
enjoyment

ish, nor exclusive. It does not ignore the
brotherhood of man, nor seek special advan-
tage at the expense of general good. 1t

ton of Europe, through the profer of

THE SCENE oE LEES SURRENDER

The Richmond Enquirer says: A gem
tleman just from Appomattox courthouse
informs us that there is nothing left of the
apple tree under which General Lee surren-
dered but red hole in the ground, and it
is feared that unless the whole is fenced in
that also will he removed by curiosity seek
ers. 1t is subject worthy of notice, too,
that the apple tree alluded to was the lar
gest in the world, being at least forty times
the bulk of the celebrated California oak,
which was about the size of the citadel Of
Ham, About ne-hundred and seventeen
cords of this apple tree have already been
distributed over the United States in the
shape of walking canes, fishing poles, UNI
brella handles, policemen's s clubs, work box
es, sewing machines, writing desks, vest
buttons, corks, charms, lead pencils, pen
handles, toddy muddlers, tooth picks, to-
bacco pipes, and snuff boxes The number
| of persons felicitating in these heroic relics
is estimated at about twenty EIGHT million
which is equivalent to the number of reb-
els killed. wounded and missingin the late
war, according to the published statements
of northern newspapers from statistics
gathered at the time. In fact this apple
tree enjoys as wide a circulation as any bo-
gus medicine in existence; and, but for the
fact that General Lee did not surrender un-
der any apple-tree at all, it might be ap
propriately placed photographically, among
the historic archives Of the country, as the
greatest tree in all history.
1T is useless to attempt, conviction of
the truth SO long as the stock on hand of
the great Appomattox apple tree is unex-
hausted, and perhaps, even when that sup
ply gives out-for the destruction of apple
trees in New England, when the Maine law
excited prejudice against brandy, renders
such an exhaustion probable-history win
claim the original as the rightfnl possessor
of the fame Of the locality, and the surren-
der of General Lee under an apple-tree win
be fixed in the national records and the pic
torial reports from the Patent Office on
pomology and agriculture. y

supERIoRlTY OF THE EDUCATED,


The hand is found to be another hand
when guided by an intelligent mind, Indi-
viduals who, without the aid of knowledge,
would have been condemned to perpetual
inferiority ofcondition, and subjected to all
the evils of want and poverty, rise to com
petence and independence by the uplifting
power of education. In great establishments
and among large bodies of laboring men,
where all services are rated according to
their pecuniary value where there are no
extrinsic circumstances to bind man down
to fixed position, afterhe has shown ca
pacity prise above it-where indeed, men
pass by each other. ascending or descending
in their grades of labor just as easily and as
certainly as particles of water of different
degrees of temperature glide by each other
Under such circumstances it is, found, as
an almost inyariable fact, other things be-
ing equal, that those who have been blessed
with good common school education rise to
a higher and higher point in the kinds of
labor performed. and also in the rate of wa
ges received, while the ignorant sink like
dregs, and are always found at the bottom.

HOW TO BREATHE.

There is no rule to be observed in taking
exercise by walking-the very best form in
which it can be taken by the young and able
bodied of all ages-and that is never TO al
low the action of respiration to be carried
ON through the mouth The nasal passa-
ges are clearly the medium through which
respiration was designed by our Creator to
be carried on. ''God breathed into mans
nostrils the breath of life previous to his
becoming a living creature The difference
in the exhaustion Of strength by long
walk with the mouth firmly closed, and res
piration carried on through the nostrils in
stead of through the mouth il inconceiva-
bic to those who have never tried the ex-
pertinent. And indeed this mischievous
and really unnatural habit of carrying on
the work of inspiration and expiration
through the mouth instead Of through the
nasal passages is the true origin of almost
all the diseases of the throat and lungs, as
bronchitis, congestion, asthma, and even
consumption itself That excessive perspi-
ration to which some individuals are SO ha-
ble in their sleep, which is SO weakening to
the body, is solely the effect of such per-
sons sleeping with their mouths unclosed.
And the same unpleasant and exhaustive
results arise to the animal system from walk
ing with the mouth open, instead of, when
not engaged in conversation, preserving the
lips in state Of firm but quiet compression.
AS the heat and velocity of the blood through
the lungs depends almost entirely upon the
quantity Of the atmospheric air inhaled with
each inspiration, and il is unavoidable that
il should be taken in volume, by the mouth,
| while it can only be supplied in moderate
quantities, and just in sufficient proportion
to serve the purpose of healthy, respirato-
| nv action, while supplied through the nos
trils, it is clear that the body must be much
lighter and cooler, aud also the breathing
much freer and easier when thelatter course
4 rather than the former one is adopted.
I Children ought never TO be allowed TO stand
or walk with their mouths open, for besides
the vacant appearance it gives to the coun-
/ tenance, it is the certain precursor OF coughs
colds, and sore throats.

AN ACCOMMODATING KING.

q.
Some Englishmen travelling in Swedish
Italy. visited the summer palace ofthe King
of Stockholm. On entering the grounds,
they saw man seated on bench, and asked
whether they might go over the apartments
The man spoke very good English, and said
that he was attached to the palace, and would
take them over. They then inquired whe-
ther they might see the private rooms, to
which their guide replied that this was not
usual, but as the king was of a very restless
disposition, they might meet him. The
Englishman then began telling anecdotes Of
the King, and demanded if they we're true.
The guide, model of discretion, said SO
many stories we're told of his Magesty, some
true, some false, that il was difficult to say
exactly what was correct, and that as he was
connected with the royal household, it was
not for him to say The Englishman begged
pardon for their curiosity, and it was hearth
" granted. At last, after they had seen
bevery thing, they took leave of their guide,
| and thanking him for his courtesy, express
cd their regretthat they had not seen Charles
| XIV. The guide raised his hat, and saluting
them gracefully, said i am the King,
and left the Englishnen not little as.

LARGEST CITY I'M 'THE'WORLD.

IF the following account IL true, London
is no longer the metropolis of our planet.
That distinction belongs to the Japanese
city Of Jeddo, which q correspondent of the
Boston Traveller thus describes:
But what shall say of this greatest and
most singular Of all cities? ] cannot give
you an idea of it; il is SO unique, so unlike
every thing except itself, and 20 impossible,
as you viii think
1T is situated on the western shore of
this charming gulf, twenty miles wide by
twenty four long. 1t stretches for twenty
miles or more along beach Of semi-circular
form, with its horns turned outward, and
| along which a street extends. crowded with
blocks of stores and houses, and teeming
with moving crowds, while shopkeepers, ar
tisans, women and children seem equally
numerous within doors and at the doors.
Indeed, dozen or fifteen miles might be
added to the city in this direction, since
there is nothing but an unbroken succession
of towns and villages for this distance.
which are as populous and well-built as the
city itself
''In crossing the city from tie shore to
the western outskirts, have walked two
miles and half, and then proceeded on
horseback for ten miles farther, making
twelve miles and half. while in other pla-
ces it may be wider. According to the low
est estimate, the city covers an area equal TO
seven of the New England farming towns,
which are usually six miles square. And
all is traversed BY streets, usually wide, well
constructed. perfectly neat, and crossing each
other at right angles; streets lined with
houses and stores as compactly as they can
be built, and crowded with moving and sta
tionary masses as thick as in Washington
Street, or New York Broadway, at least for
considerable distances.
The population is estimated generally at
three millions, which Mr.. Harris, our min
lister, thinks is no exaggeration. For my
part, Judging froE what I have seen when
have gone into the heart Of the city, and
crossed the city from side to side, l should
be willing to add as many millions more; for
the living, moving masses, seen from sun
rise to sunset, and every where the same,
fairly seemed beyond computation
