Day The Herald is surprised at tho
action of the Temperance men in
nominating q Temperance State
Ticket, for the reason that it, the
Herald, conccivcs Gov. Hayes and
Col. Pond to be Temperance mon.
Tho Temperance men of Morgan
County don't look at things in that
light. They have reasons to dis.
trust the sentiments of such men as
Hayes and Pond. Tho Temperance
men of the Republican party voted
for Dave Tod, Jack Brough, Andrew
Johnson. and Grant, and tho result
was that they elected drunkards
every time.

Position In Sleeping.

1t is better to sleep on the right side,
for then the stomach is very much in the
position Of bottle turned upside down.
and the contents of it are aided in pass

sleep on the left side the operation of
emptying the stomach of its contents is
more like drawing water from a we'll
After going to sleep, let the body take
its own position. If you sleep on your
back, especially soon after a hearty meal
the weight Of the digestive organs and
that of the food, resting on the great
vein of the body, near the backbone,
congresses it, and arrests the flow of
the blood more OF less. If the arrest is
partial, the sleep is disturbed, and there
are unpleasant dreams. If the meal has
been recent and hearty, the arrest is
moro decided and the various sensa-
tiOns-such as falling over a precipiee,
or the pursuit of a wild beast, or other
impending danger, and the desperate
effort to get rid of it-arouse US, and
send on the stagnating blood and we

This last as a frequent cause of death
to those who have gone to bed to wake
no more, we give merely as private
opinion. The possibility Of its truth is
enough to deter any man from late and
hearty meal This we do know with
certainty, that waking up in the night
with painful diarrhea, or cholera, or
bilious collie, ending in death in very
short time, is probably traceable to a
late meal. The truly wise will take the
safe side. For persons to eat three times
a day, it is amply sufficient to make the
last meal of cold bread and butter, and
a cup of some warm drink. No one can
starve on it; while a perseverance in the
habit soon begets vigorous appetite for
breakfast, 50 promising of day Of

From the y. Y. Evening Mail OF the Ists.l
The Rev. w. A.P. Martin, D. D..
Professor of the Imperial College at
Pekin, last evening gave description,
before the American Geographical and
Statistical Society, at their rooms in the
Cooper Institute, Of his recent visit to
an ancient Jewish colony in the province
of Honan, in China, and also to the tomb
of COnfucius This Jewish colony had
migrated to China from India betwesn
1000 and 1000 years ago. When DR.
Martin first reached Hong Kong he
found the director of the chief hospital
there to be a man of the Israelitish faith,
and he urged him to place himself in
communication with this colony. The
director replied that it was impossible to
do so, on account of the great distance
intervening and the absolute absence of
any means of communication. DR.. Mar
tin, however, succeeded in making q
journey to the place, but at first it was
impossible to discover any trace Of the
ancient Hebrew residents of the colony
among the Chinese who now inhabited
the place. By diligent inquiry, DR..
Martin at last found several young men
who acknowledged themselves to be the
descendants of the original Jewish fam
lies. Their last Rabbi had died some
twelve years before DR.. Martins visit.
and with him had persisted the knowl-
edge Of their native tongue. Their tenn
pie had fallen into ruin, and there were
none to rebuild it. They still preserved
a few books of their faith, but no one
could read them, and the few remaining
members of the colony were almost en-
tirely assimilated to the native popula-
ton which surrounded them. DR.. Mar
tin described the tomb of Confueius.
which is situated in the province of
Shan-Tung, and is still regarded with the
utmost reverence by the entire Chinese
people. He described the three forms
of religion between which the people are
divided, or rather which are combined to
form the faith of the Chinese people
Buddhism, Confueiusism and Tanism-
all of which have their distinct places of
worship and officiating priests, but
which the common people almost uniyer-
sally combine in their creeds and prac-
tice. The lecture was listened to by
large audience, who appeared deeply in
terested.

Female photographers.

Yesterday was opened at the Cooper
Institute a school of instruction in tel
graphy for the benefit of young ladies
who wish to profit by the chance afford
ed them by the Western Union Tele-
graph Company to learn the business of
telegraphy. Twelve tables were erected
in the room off the large reading-roOm,
and on each of these tables was placed
an instrument, the tables and instrument
being furnished by the telegraph COM
pany, and the room by the trustees OF
the Cooper Institute. a large number
of young ladies applied for admission to
the class, but only twelve had been ad-
mitted, as that is the limited number,
until they have been thoroughly taught,
when new class will be formed. The
class is in the charge of Miss Lydia H,
Snow, an accomplished operator, who
receives her salary as an instruetress
from the company. The term COM
menced on the 10Th of February, and
will end on the first of July,
1869. Applications must be made
in the handwriting of the applicant, and
examinations for admission will be held
on Fridays at II o'clock. Those who
apply must be at least seventeen years
old and not over twenty and they
must also bring satisfactory reference.
Pupils absent more than three times
without leave from the manager will for
felt their positions in the school. The
school hours each day will be from $3.50
am. to $3.50 pm, and no girl will be adj
mitted who is not willing to accept a
situation outside of the city when Of
fered. No entrance fee will be required
from the pupil, and the instruction will
be entirely gratuitOus. Visitors to the
pupils will only be admitted by card on
Fridays. Yesterday. the class was full
and very praiseworthy spirit was OBJ
servable among the pupils, none Of
whom had ever before learned the art Of
telegraphing. The business is light
and profitable one, as girls, when prop
erly instructed, can earn weekly salaries
of twenty to forty dollars week as oP-
orators. They are more apt to learn
and more patient under discipline than
men, and will make excellent operators

Of the Blessed, though mingled with SC
much that is fabulous, may still have
some truth for its foundation.
Geologists tell us that the coral insect
commences its work upon the hidden
promontories, the lofty mOuntain-p peaks
Of the cream bed. Is it not then posi-
Bile that the coral insects have found
upon the submerged land Of Atiantis a
resting place and foundation for the now
existing coral islands of the West, and
that in the Bermudas we have a reap
pearance, a new birth of the tabled At
lantis of old? Is ii not possible that
Plato told of our own great continer t,
when he told of the continent vaster
than Lydia and all Asia lying beyond
Atlantis ?"
Moreover, knowing as we do, that the
coral insects are still as indefatigably
working as ever, is it not possible that
in coming ages, the Atlantis of Story
may re-appear in all its tabled glory,
above the ruins of the submerged Oid?"

0XyhydrOgen Lig ht.

The experiments commenced last year
on the Place de lHotel de Vile, in
Paris, on the oxyhydrogen light, are
about to be continued by order of the
Emperor, in the court of the Tuilleries.
The magnesia cylinders having been
found to corrode and waste away too
rapidly for the purpose of a continuous
light, an artillery officer, NJ Caron, after
experimenting with a variety Of sub
stances, has adopted zircon, substance
which Berzelius pointed out as infusible
and giving forth very brilliant light
under the blowpipe. 1t is said that NJ
Caron has had a cylinder of this sub
stance in use with the Oxyhydroger
light for a month, without the slightest
trace of volatilization The luminous
power of zircon, under the oxyhydro-
gen Jet, is about one-ffth more thar
that of magnesia. The zircon employed
IS an oxide of chromium; it is found
principally near Mask, at the foot of the
Ural Mountains. NJ Caron economies
the zircon by mounting point Of it OF
