WhiteWashing.

Good whitewash, well applied to fences
rough siding, and the walls and ceilings of
buildings, has large sanitary influence, as
well as being in a high degree preservative
in its effects. To be durable, whitewash
should be prepared in the following man
ner:
=. Take the very best stone lime and slack
it in close tub, covered with a cloth to
preserve the steam. Salt-as much as can
be dissolved in the water used for Stacking
and reducing the lime-should be applied,
and the whole mass carefully strained and
thickened with small quantity of sand, the
purer and finer the better A few pounds of
wheat flour, mixed as paste, may be added,
and will give greater durability to the
mass, especially when applied to the ex-
terror surface of buildings. With pure
lime, properly slackened and mixed with
twice its weight of fine sand and sifted
wood-ashes in equal proportions almost
any color may be made by the addition of
pigments Granite, slate, freestone and
other shades may be initiated, and without
any detriment~ to the durability of the
wash. This covering is very often applied,
and with good effect, to underpinning,
stone fences, roofs, and the walls of barns
and other out buildings.-G Germautown TEL

Lost Arts,

In regard to colors we are far behind the
ancients. None Of the coorS in the Egyptians
paintings of thousands Of years ago are in the
least faded, except the green. The Tyrian
purple OF the entObmed city of POmpei is as
fresh to-day as it was three thousand years
ago. Some of the stucco, broken up and
mixed, reverted to its original ustre. And
yet we pity the ignorance of the dark-skinned
children of the ancient Egypt. The colors
upon the hall of Nero's festal vault are as
fresh as if painted yesterday SO is the
cheek OF the Egyptian prince who was con-
tempOraneous with Solomon, and Cleopatra,
at whose feet Caesar laid the riches of his
empire.
And in regard to metals The edges of the
statues of the obelisks of Egypt, and of the
ancient walls of Rome are as sharp as if but
hewn yesterday. And the stones still remain
SO closely fitted that their seams, laid with
mortar cannot be penetrated with the edge
OF peuknlfe And their surfaces are ex-
oeedingly hard SO that when the French
artists engraved two lines upon the obelisk
brought from Egypt they destroyed, in the
tedious task, many Of the best tools which
can be manufactured. And yet these ancient
monuments are traced all over with in>crip-
tons placed upon them in Olden time This,
with other facts of a striking character, prove
that they were far more skiiuI in metals than
we are. Quite recently, it is recorded that
when an American vessel was on the shores OF
Africa, son of that benighted region made
from an iron hoop knife superior to any on
board the vessel and another made a sword OF
Damascus excellence from piece of IRON
Fiction is very old; Scott had his counter.
part two thousand years ago. A story is told
OF warrior who had no time to wait for the
proper forging of his weapon but seized il
red hot and found to his surnriSe that the
cool air had tempered his iron into an excel
lent steel weapon. The tempering of steel
therefore, which was new to US century since
was old two thousand years ago.
Ventilation is deemed very modern art
But this is not the fact, for apertures, unques
uonably made for the purpose Of ventilation
are found in the pyramid tombs of Egypt
Yet thousands of years ago the barbarou
} pagans went SO far as to ventilate their tomb.
while we yet scarcely know how to ventilat
our houses. Cabinet Maker.

Reasons Why Married Persons Live
Longest.

Dr. Hall, in one of his "Health Tracts"
gives the following eaSOns why marriage is
favorable to health:
Bachelors are always in state of unrest !;
they feel unsettled lfindoors after supper,
there is a sense Of solitariness, inducing 4 sad
ness, If not settled melancholy, with all its de-
pressing influences; and many, many hours in
the course OF the year are spent in gloomy in
activity, which is adverse to a good digestion
and a vigorous and healthy circulation His
own chamber or house being so uninvitng, the
bachelor is inclined to seek diversion outside
in SupperS with friends, in clubs which are in
troduct0res to intempcranCe and licentiOus-
ness or to those more unbluShing associations,
which, under the cover of darkness, lead to
speedy ruin Of health and morals and when
these are gone, the way downward to an un-
timely grave is rapid and certain. On the
other hand, marriage lengthens man life by
Its making home inviting, by the sOftening in
tluences which it has upon the character and
the affections; by the cultivation Of all the bet
ter feeling of our nature, and in that proper
ton saving from vice and crime. There can
be no healthful developement of the physical
functions OF our nature without marriage it is
necessary to the perfect man, for Divinity has
announced that it was not good for man to
be alone"
Marriage gives a laudable and happy object
In life, the provision for wife and children theiI
present comfort and future welfare, the enjoy
ment in witnessing their happiness, and the
daily and hourly participation in affectionate
interchange of thought and sentiment and sym
pathy these are the considerations which an
tagOnize sorrow and tighten the burdens of life
thus strewing flowers and casting sunshine al
along its pathway.
Voltaire said, 1.-The more married men yor
have the fewer crimes there will be. Marriage
renders man more virtuous and more wise
An unmarried man is but half Of perfect be
ing, and it requires the other half to maxi
things right and it cannot he expected that il
this imperfect state he can keep the straigh
path of rectitude, any more than boat will
one oar can keep a straight course. In min
cases of ten, where married men become drunk
ards, or where they commit crimes against th
peace of the community, the foundation 0
these acts was laid while in single state, O
where the wife is, as is sometimes the case, a
unsuitable match. Marriage changes the cur
rent of mans feelings, and gives him cente
for his thoughts, his affections, and his act.
Here is home for the entire man, and tn
counsel, the affections, the example, and tn
interest of his better half keep him from el
ratio courses, and from falling into thousan
temptations to which he would otherwise b
exposed. Therefore, the friend to marriage
the friend to society and to his country,'

Women in Public Life.

Mrs. Stephen \. Douglas was the life of her
husband, saving him, and keeping his head
cool and level in moments when he was likely
to fall into error through too impetuOus de-
sire to declare himself Who does not remem-
Der the popularity of the family of Senator Sill
dell, and how his fortunes were assisted by the
gifts of Mrs. Slidell, not only in New Orleans
but at the national capital? One of the most
remarkable instances of female electoneering,
however, occurred in California when Gwin
and Broderick were contending for the Senator
ship. And in this instance Broderick confessed
to defeat at the hands of beauty. Mr.. Gwin
opened parlOrs at the principal hotels at Sacra-
mentO, and Mrs Gwin presided. The beauty
and talent OF the State were concentrated at the
receptions, twenty-seven young ladies lending
their attractions to influence the representa-
tives. The Legislature was invited to partake
OF the hOspltallties of the Gwin reception, and
as he was then United States Senator, and was
still expected to be, it may well be supposed
that the brilliant court established by Mrs.
Gwin was not neglected And the wife and
family of DR.. Gwin knew how to keep open
house. They had wit, good SEP sc, refinement,
beauty, wealth, name and position. They en-
barked all these qualities in he contest, and
used their elOquence to such advantage that
! Broderick had to retire sit was brilliant win
ter in Sacramento, and one that California will
never see the like of again; for the contest be-
tween Gwin and Broderick was the beginning
of that division in politics in California when
the free-soilers first cut loose from the advo
Gates Of slavery. 1t involved the issue OF

Dangers Of the New Narcotic.

There is danger that not little harm may
result from the free use of the new narcotic, or
anashetic, Choral That it has valuable
medicinal properties and is an admirable seda-
tive, there can be no doubt. But it is one of
the most fascinating of narcotics, and the ha-
bitual use of it is said to be attended with more
and greater evils than almost any other drug
of common consumption.
1t is understood says the Boston AdrertiSer
that the use of it has become alarmingly pre-
valent and it may be we'll then to note few of
the consequences. Eminent physicians say
that it aggravates rheumatism and skin dis
eases and causes irritation of the mucous
surfaces of the nose and throat. 1t causes a
dimness of sight that is most inconvenient, to
say the least.
| A Chicago clergymen lately told his exper-
ience with the drug to his physician. For a
few nights it was taken for sleeplessness its
effects were very pleasant then came on pc
culiar dimness, or weakness of sight; he had
to read with one eye at time-fOr minute
or two with each. If one eye was used longer
than a minute, the words and letters became
blurred and indistinct. The eyes became con
gested, the lids swollen and partially para
lized The tongue had peculiar appearance
"a black streak, like that caused by ink, ex
tending the whole length of the tongue, in it
centre.
The physician who sends this account to tn,
Chicago HTbome says that this peculiar ap
pearance of the tongue is diagnostic. He ha
observed it in those who have been addicted
to chloral eating for only a few days. Tn
habit is, moreover, exceedingly hard to breal
off, and attempts to do so have resulted il
symptoms not unlike those Of delirium trem
ems.
One case is reported where man who too
an overdose slept for twenty-four hours, an
; on awakening found his arms and legs para
} lyzed. 1t is to be hoped that these facts vii
: induce the public generally to be very caution
about the new drug, and not TO make use {
, it at all without the advice of good physi
clan.

A MAN Drowned WHILE BEING BApr1zE

A MAN DROWNED WHILE BEING BAPTIZED.
"A few weeks since DIR 4. p. Pownall, of
Sand Hill, KY, after a brief courtship, was
married to Miss Mary j. Wilson. Shortly af-
ter his marriage Dr. POwnall united with the
Christian Church and. Sunday last was ap.
pointed as the day of his baptism, he having
requested his pastor, the Rev. j. b. Hough,
to perform the rite. At the appointed hour
large number of persons had assembled on the
banks of Crooked creek, the place chosen for
the immersion. After singing and prayer the
Rev. Mr.. Hough entered the water, leading
the Doctor. They were obliged to proceed
some distance from the shore in order to reach
sufficient depth, but suddenly both were seen
to go down. They soon arose to the surface,
and the minister regained the bank, but the
Doctor, being unable to swim, was swept by
the current under Aood-gate only short dis
tance below. Every exertion was made to
save him, but in vain. The body was soon at
ter found and brought to shore amid the most
heart-rending screams from his young wife and
friends. Everything possible was done to re-
suscitate the Doctor, but alas, the vital spark
had flown.

How TO SPELL-Ofton in writing simple
word is required, of the orthography of which
the writer is not sure. The dictionary may be
referred to-but is getaways convenient. An
easy mode is to write the word on a bit of
waste paper, in the two or three ways of which
you are in doubt. Nine times in ten, the mode
which looks right IS right. Spelling-particu.
larly English spelling, is so completely a work
Of the eye, that the eye alone should be trust
ed. There is no reason why receive" and
believe should be spelt differently, yet
sounded alike, in their second syllables Yet
write them receive and believe" and the
eye shows you the mistake at once. The best
way for young people, and indeed people of
any age to learn to spell, is to practice writing.
Cobbett, the famous English radical, taught
his children grammar, by requiring that they
should copy their lessons two or three times.
These lessons he himself gave them in the
form of letters and his French and English
grammars are two of the most amusing books
in the English language. OF course I" learning
to spell came in incidentally.
