The danger of risking the stoppaoe Of
the pores by sudden change oftemperature
Is terribly illustrated every day. A case
is related ofa leading New York gentleman
who having exerted himself on a vessel

hausted, and perspiring freely. He sat

Of In attempting to rise, he found be was
unable to do SO without assistance. He
was taken home aud put to bed, where he
remained for two years and for long

Multitudes OF lives would besayed every

suffering would be prevented, if parents
would begin to explain to their children
at the age OF three or four years, the dan

standing still after exercise, or work. or

or OF sitting at an open window or door,
or of pulling off any garment, even the

be remembered by all that cold never

off exercise too suddenly, or Of remaining
still in the wind, or in cooler atmosphere

NARROW GAUGE RAILROADs.-Much
attention has lately been directed to the
successful construction aud operation of
Narrow Gauge Railroads in Wales, and
other portions of Great Britain These
roads, from one and one half to three feet
gauge, are built, stocked and operated at
an average of less than half the cost of or
dinary gauge roads. Contrary to previous
ly entertained opinions, these narrow gauge
roads are found to be perfectly safe for
running trains up to speed of thirty miles
hour, and are capable of maintaining a
large transportation traffic The compara-
lively small cost of such roads will insure
their construction in many localities the
population and resouces of which will not
justify the building Of standard gauge
road. Already the subject of constructing
short lines of narrow gauge roads, is being
agitated in several localities of this State :
and a company has been incorporated in
San Francisco, embracing several capita
lists of experience in railroad matters, for
builing and operating such roads, and it is
to be presumed this company will be glad
to confer with accredited representatives
of any district desiring the construction of
the cheap roads,

Wonderful Region.


The San Francisco Bulletin says the re-
ports of the Yellowstone Exploring Expe-
ditlon reads like romance Canons with
vertical walls that shut out the snn,
waterfall that rivals if it does not surpass
Niagra, cliffs that recall Yosemite, and
thirmal springs that leap from fifty to two
hundred feet into the air such are the
more remarkable features of country
which is altogether wonderful If these
reports are true, Montana will prove seri-
Gus competitor to California, with her Big
Trees, Yosemite, tall peaks and Geysers
and nothing less than live volcano will
serve to restore our supremacy. There is
said to be over Que thousand hot springs,
strongly mineral, iu one small valley of the
Yellowstone region. One would think
this must be the very centre Of that tre-
mendous volcanic energy which at some re-
mote period marked the whole interior of
the continent, when perhaps the great ba-
sin was still a salt sea, and the water was
up to the highest of those terraced lines
which are still plainly visible We know
comparatively little of the geology of the
middle continent, and what we do know
excit"s the keenest curiosity. The explo-
rations of Whitney, King and others, par
tial and mited, and partly voluntary, have
had valuable results, and is to be hoped the
national Government will make annual ap-
to continue scientific investiga-
ton in such vast and promising field
Money could not be better expended, and
no public works are so economiclly conduct
ed as those ofthe scientific explorer
