The lack of ventilation in our public
buildings, where thousands are in the habit
Of congregating in space containing alb
sOlutely less pure air than is required for
the purpose of respiration, even if con-
tinually renewed, and where the consump-
ton of oxygen of this air is continually
progressing in the processes of respira-
ton, combustion, &c, with slight
provision, or no provision at all,
for its renewal, is well known to
every one. The consequences of breath
ing such an atmosphere can readily be
noticed, by observing its effects upon the
assembly so confined. At first, perhaps,
wit and wisdom flow as freely as the sum
shine, but as the air becomes impregnated
and heavy with the exhalations of the
numbers present, the sparkling flow of
reason and of soul loses its vim, and de-
clines in vigor in proportion as the health
giving and invigorating principles of the air
are consumed without proper provision
for fresh supply. This lis the cause of

THE Newark Advertiser suggests new
business for the blind. 1t says that in
Newark two or three of these unfortunates
sell teas from house to house, having ap.
parently been directed to take that par.
ticular article by their keen sense of smell
and taste. One of them is escorted by a
lad from the Foster Home; the other has
borrowed boy from the Orphan Asylum
to make change and act as guide. Their
teas are procured at the lowest wholesale
prices through the aid of a gentleman who
acts as capitalist for the concern. They
have thus raised themselves above the
level of mendicancy, do not claim to be
objects of charity, and only ask for fair
share of business. .5 r. 1~a

Senator ReyelS.

1T is curious and interesting fact that
with the adoption of the Fifteenth Amend
ment and the close of the great series OF
measures of reconstruction which formal
ly end the war, living symbol of the vic
tory of equal rights which has been
achieved should appear in the Senate of
the United States in the person of Mr..
Revels, the colored Senator from Missis-
sippi. 1t is no less striking and significant
that the papers which always toadied the
great slave-drivers in, Congress gibe and
sheer at the new Senator, not because of
any want of capacity, any fault of charac-
ter, or any defect of manner, but solely
because of color. If Mr.. Revels shall
prove to be as shallow as Mr.. Wigfall, as
arrogant as Mr.. Toombs, as false to his
country as Mr.. Jefferson Davis; and if,
like those ancient Democratic Senators
and all their brethren, he shall devote all
his energies to the perpetuity and extern
sion of the most un-AmericaC, the most
disastrous, and the most inhuman policy
that was ever proposed in the Legislature
Of a civilized nation, we shall agree that
the Democratic gibes are well deserved.
If, on the other hand, he shall mOdestly
and steadily continue to support the great
principles to which his life has been devOt-
edit he shall continue to do all that he
can to elevate and enlighten the most un-
fortunate class of American citizens, to
establish securely that policy of equal
rights among the people which is alone
truly American and democratic, to cult
vate universal sympathy and fraternity
and to hold the Union to the great and
humane purposes for which it is declared
in the Constitution to be established
he proves by his Senatorial course his
faith in popular government, in liberty, in
justice, as the best guarantees of civiliza.
ton and progress, and the greatest good
of the greatest number, he will do wha,
neither Mr.. Wigfall, nor Mr.. Toombs, mol
Mr.. Slidell, nor Mr.. Mason, nor Mr.

cratic Senators ever did, and will commend

BOUGHT HIMsELF-An amusing affair
happened lately between coal dealer and
a purchaser. The latter was very anxious
to see that the former did not cheat him,
SO he (the purchaser) inspected the weigh.
ing of the coal himself and felt perfectly
satisfied that he got the full allowance,
without any desire on the part of the
coal-dealer to " shave" However, while
the coal was weighing, the driver of the
team could not help laughing, aware at
the time that the purchaser was particu-
lar about his full weight of coal. The
purchaser, noticing the laughing of the
driver, asked him, when he received the
coal, what it was all about SO the driver
told him.. Why" said he, when your
coal was weighing your were standing on
the scales, and were weighed with ii. )" els
it possible? Why, I weigh nearly two
hundred pounds p Well, sir" said the
driver, :" you. are Sold" eyes," was the
reply, and.T have bought myself, too."-

The missing steamer, Smidt, arrived at this Port on Thursday last, after very ted- ous passage of forty-fve days.

NEw YoRk, March 9th. 1870.
 Sunday night we had the heaviest fall of snow of the season, and Monday, as a matter of course, we had very good sleighing; but the warm spring weather we are having, made sad havoc with the snow, and, to-day, there is scarcely any to be seen. We are in hopes that this will be the last of it, this winter. New Workers do not regard snow us much of a blessing.
 Gold, yesterday fell 10 loS, but very little was sold for less than no. Many of our re-. tail houses are giving specie in change.
 Monday afternoon, report was circulated throughout the City that dispatch had been received announcing the safe arrival at Liver pool of the missing steamer City cf Boston. This caused a vast amount of rejoicing; but, upon investigation, it was found to be but a canard. No news has been received from the steamer yet, and as 1t is upwards of month since she left this port 1t is feared that she has gone the way of the President, Pacike and United Kingdom.

New Military Post.

Captain Preston, of Gen. Ord's staff, ar- rived at Fort Whipple, recently, from South ern Arizona, and from him we learn that site for a new post, to be built near the Sierra Blanca, or White Mountain, had been selected previous to bis departure from Camp Goodwin, several weeks ago. This is, cer- tainly, move in the right direction. Many villainous Apaches dwell in the White Noun tain country, and the establishment of strong post in their midst will, most assur- edly, check and have a depressing influence upon them, and also open the country to settlement.
 The new post will be about sixty-five miles northwest of Camp Goodwin, which is about one and a-half miles east of the Gila; about 200 miles southeast from Prescott, and l60 miles north of Tucson. Having pioneered it through the region of country in which it is located, we will bore our readers with a short description of it: After crossing the Gia and the valley through which it runs, the country rises gradually for about twenty miles, and a more God-forsaken country than is passed over in these twenty miles, is not to be found in Eastern Arizona. Upon gain ing the summit of the first slope from the river, and looking either north, west or south. a different country presents itself To the north are high, grassy mesas, dotted here and there with oak and juniper trees, and, far in the distance, the pine-clad mountains in which the Priets, the Francisco and other rivers rise. These grassy, timbered mesas extend south a considerable distance, and while fol- lowing them in that direction, the eye comes in contact with the Pinal mountains, which stand between the Gila aud Salt rivers, and prevent them from uniting. But, the best, most magnificent country, is to the west and northwest, in which direction vast forests of pine, and huge mountain peaks are seen. As the traveller pursues his way from the top of the first bench overlooking the Gila to the summit of the snowy Sierra Blanca Grande, as the Indians call the highest peak of the White Mountain, new beauties are seen at almost every step The soil is exceedingly fertile, and the entire face of the country is covered with luxuriant grasses. Through it meander large streams of clear, sparkling wa ter Timber-pine, oak, etc.--is plenty, and the trees are large Portions of this country may contain rich mineral deposits, but. in our travels through it, we saw but few indi- cations to warrant that assumption. As an agricultural and grazing country. it cannot be surpassed. What is true of. it is equally true of almost all the wild region lying be- tween it and the settlements in the vicinity of Prescott. The climate is similar to that of this part of Arizona, with this difference, that the summer rains are heavier than here. The establishment of chain of posts from the Gila to the Verde, or the building of a railroad on the route of the 35th parallel. would soon fill this fine country with indus trious farmers and stock-raise-s.

Death of General George H. Thomas.

Another great American has been called from the stage of earthly life to the unknown world beyond the tomb-man's final resting place, where we hope naught but happiness and love fill the souls of the departed. our fellow-citizen, John A. Rush, who arrived here from California Tuesday last, brought the sad news that Major General George II. Thomas died suddenly at San Francisco, Cal ifornia, on tho afternoon of March 2. Upon learning of his demise, many officers and men of the garrison wept like children for the loss of their brave old chief, and those who could not weep were almost choked with emotion. 0ur.citizens, too, felt sorely griered over the news. We had not the pleasure of the departed warriors acquaintance, but learn from those who knew him we'll that he was possessed of all those traits of character that make men noble, brave and honorable He was by birth virginian, and although bis sword and talents were used, and did much to conquer that noblest of Common. weaiths, and her sister States of the South. she yet can feel just pride for having given birth to SO great son. But, beside being a Virginian he was an American, and all true Americans will mourn his death
