How TO BREArHE.-There is one

How TO BREATHE is one
rule to be observed in taking exercise
by wallking-the very best form in
which it can be taken by the young
and able-bodied of all ages-and that
is, never to allow che action of respi-
ration to be carried Oh through the
mouth. The nasal passages are clearly
tie medium through which respira-
tion was, by our Creator, designed to
be carried on. "God breathed into
mans nostrils the breath of life,"
previous to his becoming living
creature. The difference in the ex-
haustion of strength by long walk
with the mouth firmly closed, and
respiration carried on through the
nostriIs instead of the mouth, is in
conceivable to those who have never
tried the experiment. Indeed, this
mischievous and really unnatural
habit of carrying on the work of res
spiration 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, rs bronchitis, congestion,
asthma, and even consumption itself.
That excessive perspiration to which
some individuals are so liable in their
sleep, which is so Weakening to the
body, is solely the effect of such
persons sleeping with their mouths
Enclosed. And the same unpleasant
and exhaustive results arise to the
animal system from walking 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
bleed through the lungs depends
almost entirely upon the quantity of
the atmospheric air inhaled with each
inspiration, and it is unavoidable
that it should be taken in, 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 respiratory
action, while supplied through the
nostrils, it is clear that the body must
be much lighter and cooler, and the
breathing much freer and easier,
when the latter course rather than the
former is the one adopted. Children
ought never to be allowed to stand or
walk with their mouths open; for,
besides the vacant appearance it gives
to the countenance, it is the certain
precursor of coughs and sore throats

that Ireland has not increased her quota In

RPennsyIvania Election.

In referring to the result Of the late elec-
tion in Pennsylvania, the Harrisburg Ea,oR
says: "GEARY's majority has reached IL,
l7s only through the most extensive and
bare-hccd frauds upon the ballot-box.
Not only were Democratic voters denied
their rights in hundreds of instances, in
disunlon counties and districts, but colon
izing' was resorted TO in the most open ard
fragrant manner. The manner in which
the disunionists 'colonized' in the iron dis
tricts, and in Indiana aud Westmoreland
counties, (JoHN CovoDE's districtj Nns al
ready been alluded to, as well as the fact
that the oil counties of the Northwestern
part of the State were filed with nomadic
Yankee Abolitionisis who have all alb
squatulated since the election. Every
Democratic paper in the State has expos
ed eases of fraud and corruption--some of
them shameful and gigantic--perpetrated
by the disunion leaders, in order to thwart
the will of the people. But day of reck-

beautiful and easily attained show of ever
Sreens may be had by u very simple plan
which has been found TO work remarkably
well on a small scale. If ger.nium branches,
taken from luXurlant and healthy trees,
just before the winter sets In, be cut as for
Slips, ana Immersed IN soap water, they
will, after dropping a few days, shed their
leaves put forth fresh ones, and continue
in the finest vigor all winter. by placing n
number of bottles thus Allied in a flower
basket, with moss TO conceal the bottles. n
show Of evergreen is easily secured for the
winter. All the different varieties of the
plant being used, the various shades and
color of the leaves blend into beautiful
effect. They require no fresh water. So
says a lady who has tried it.

eS-One Of the methods resorted to by the
Radicals of Joliet, Illinois, to show their
delight at the result of the recent election
in that State, was burning the Constitution
of the United States, which was done in
the open streets, amid the most vociferous
cheering from the crowd Of partisans as
sembled. This shows where the teachings
of SUMNER and STEVENS are leading the
people.

Says the Cincinnati GOzette, of Wednes-
day. from every quarter we have adyices
of declining markets, for almost every ar
ticle of produce. All speculative feeling
is, for the time, suspended, and operators

cattle sold at about what they cost in Ken
tucky, and hogs brought less than they
were bought for in Chicago or Cincinnati.
Mess pork. which two weeks ago sold as
high as S35, is down to S2i IS; lad has
fallen from 22c. to lac. for prime; iiour,
wheat, corn, rye, oats, &c. have been fall
ing steadily, though still comparatively
high. Dry goods are also declining, rs are
also groceries; and finally, fancy railroad
