EXERCISE. Exercise can kill as well as
cure. To be taken advantageously, it should
be done with Judgment. Sometimes a par
ticular part of the body needs exercise, but
the whole body Is too weak to give it, in such
case, only the part needing it should have it,
But there is one rule which is applicable to
all, never go against the instincts. Many
persons have hurried themselves into the
grave by eEdeavoring to keep up; when
they, ought to be in bed; and they do >" keep
up" too, for so long time that, when they
do take TO their beds, their strength is
SO completely exhausted. that the system has
no power to rise, and they fall into a typhoid
condition and all is lost. When anything Sc
rious is the matter with domestic animals,
they court quietude and perfect rest. Some,
times we feel indisposed to exercise from
sheer laziness in ali loose conditions of the
bowels, debility, an instructive desire to sit
down and stay there is universal in most of
such cases quietude is cure. But there is one
safe rule for all under all circumstances if
every step you take is with an effort, do not
take tax another 90 to bed; if you feel the bet
OF great fatigue.-Dr. w W. Hall.

Two WAYS OF ACQUIRING PRoPERrY.-

Two WAYS OF ACQUIRING PROPERTY
In a senior examination at Williams
College, few years ago, goodly COM
pany of D. DIS ct id ge7ae8 being present,
the special topic of the moment being
"the right of property and good DR..
Hopkins the questioner, little Fred. Fl
was called up.
Question :" How is the right Of prop
erty acquired
Answer" BY discovery"
"In what other way 2" No answer.
Cant you think Of some other way {?
How have most Of as with a gesture to
ward the company acquired What little
we have?H 80. [A G#
The first ofthis brace of questions had
evidently set Fred's mental machinery to
work, and he had not fully taken the
sense Of the as, when came the quick, EN-
phatic reply:
Oh yes BY freud !"
It was clear at once, that acquisition
by labor" had found no place among
Fred's ideas, and the sudden and audible
smiling that followed, was by no means
confined to that class.

TO MAKE CURRANT WINE.--The currants
should be fully ripe when picked; put them
INTO large tub, in which they should remain
day or two; then crush with the hands,
unless you have,a small patent wine press,
in which they should not be pressed too
much, or the stems will be bruised and i'm
part disagreeable taste to the Juice. If the
hands are used, put the crushed fruit, after
the juice has been poured off, in cloth or
sack and press out the remaining Juice. Put
the juice back into the tub after cleansing it,
where it should remain about three DAYS,
until the first stage of fermentation is over,
and removing once or twice day the scum
copiously arising to the top. Then put the
juice in a vessel, a demijohn, keg or barrel,
any size to suit the quantity made, and to
each quart of juice add three pounds of the
best yellow sugar, and soft water sufficient
to make gallon, Thus, ten quarts of Juice
and thirty pounds Of sugar will give you ten
gallons Of wine, and SO on in that proportion.
Those who do not like sweet wine can reduce
the quantity ot.sugar to 30 or those who
wish it very sweet, raise it to 81 pounds per
gallon The vessel must be full and the
bung or stopper left Off until fermentation
ceases, which will be in twelve or fifteen
days. Meanwhile, the cask must be filled
up daily with current juice left over, as fer
mentatlon throws out the impure matter.
When fermentation ceases, rack the wine
carefully, either from the spigot or by q
syphon, and keep running all the time.
Cleanse the .cask thoroughly with boiling
water, then return the VINE, bung up tightly,
and let stand four or i've months, when it
will be fit to drink, and can be bottled if
desired. All the vessels, casks, ETC., should
be perfectly sweet, and the whole operation
should be done with an eye to cleanliness
In such event, every drop of brandy or other
spirituous liquors added will detract from
the flavor OF the wine, and will not in the
least degree increase its keeping qualities.
Currant wine made in this way will keep for
an age. We have some made in 1856, which
Is really an excellent article.-G ernlantoagn

First Grand Concert by the sSChOraI
Society of Nashville Last Night
A Fine Musical Treat-An Accom-
PIiGhed Choir of Singers.
The Choral Society of Nashville" gave
their first sacred concert at the Cathedral
last night, and were greeted by a fine
audience composed Of our best citizens,
who were there not only because they
knew they were to enjoy rare evenings
entertainment, but to show to the society
their ready appreciation Of their efforts TO
organize and maintain g first class local
musical INSTITUTIONAL really, we now
feel sure that the Choral will soon be
regarded as a domestic necessity by our
good citizens.
Robert LOwery, Esq. acted as coEduc-
tor, and Mr.. Charles T. Beauman as or
ganist, on the occasion of last hight, and
much praise is due them for the manner
in which they acquitted themselves. The
programme was fine and varied one, be-
ing composed of selections from the most
celebrated composers. All the songs were
rendered in manner quite unexceptional,
and the only room there was to make any
distinctions was in the matter Of taste
Among those that struck our individual
fancy, we might mention the duett sang
by Mr.. Robert Campbell aud Miss VAN
baugh; the solo, The Orphan of the
Alps, by Miss Lumsden; with Verdure
Clad, by Miss Wambaugh; chorus. Lift
up your Heads" a Duet by Mesdames
VESSEL aud Beauman; the expressive
and thrilling sol, by Mrs VESSEL. The
pieces mentioned were extremely fue and
rendered in the best possible manner,
showing in the singers accomplishments Of
the rsrest order. Misses Wambaugh and
Lumsden are peculiarly sweet singers.
The former has voice not remarkably
powerful, brt sweet and plsintive in
the extreme, and well calculated to move
the finest feelings of the heart; the latter
has a voice that is rather more penetrating,
yet very melodi1us, ard ever which she
has the most perfect control. In fact we
heard no voice that was not finished by
the highest training, aud for a concert
combination we have never heard the su-
perior of the 'Choral Society" They seem
to have been selected with a view TO per-
feet harmony, and their choruses are both
remarkably strong and sweetly blended
The Society give their Eext concert at
the Mulberry Street Church, on tomorrow
"wednesday night, and we feel very sure
they will be heard by q very large audience
of our SOuth Nashville friends, and We can
assure them they will be abundantly re-
repaid for an attendance.
"There is in souls a sympathy with sounds,
And as the mind is pitchd the is pleas'd
With melting airs Of martial, brisk aud grave. ~

4 Negro Boy Shot and Killed.

Two negro boys Mined George Williams
and Green Webb were playing yesterday
at the race track, and got into a dispute
about a pitchfoIk. They disputed some
tirne, when the boy Webb said to Williams,
''Let that fork alone or I'll shoot you, or
some words to that effect. Soon after,
Webb shot Williams with q shotgun
loaded with large charge of duck shot.
The contents entered the boys right thigh,
and ranging upwards, took effect in his
abdomen, causing his death few hours
afterwards. Coroner Brien subsequently
held an inquest, where, as we are informed,
it was STAYED that the shooting was acct
dental, and thst although the boys had
been disputing rather ieroely, no injury
had been intended, and that the gun went
off accidentally.

The DRAMATIC Entertn,nmsr
A Great Success.

Some time since, a number of the ladies'
and gentlemen Of Nashville, gave an anna
teur dramatic entertainment, which was
witness d by large audience, and was
one OF the events Of the dramatic season.
Inc entertainment Was repeated last
| night at Masonic Hall, with the addition
OF new after-piece. We think the state
ment may be made, without fear of con-
tradlctlon, that these amateurs have af-
| forded the citizens of Nashville one of the
best entertainments that has been given
In this city for many years, and they GER
talnly have been honored by large and
highly cultivated audiences.
The attendance last night was very large.
and the audience was composed of the elite
OF the city. By their frequent plaudits,
they gave full evidence of their hearty ap
probation OF the ability and talent dis
played.
The evenings exercises were opened
with the operate selections by the band
of the 10Th United States Infantry, the
first being ''Lueretis Borgis, and the sec
| ond selection from Norma" During
the performance, the band gave several
| orchestra pieces, which wer frequently
applsuded.
The principal play Of the evening was
The Shakeasprian entertainment entitled
"A Breach of Promise" the plot of which
has been heretofore SO fully detailed in
these columns as to render a repetition
unnecessary. We can only say that the
characters of ''John Sudden (Mr. VIM,
''JObber' (Mr. j. B. G J, Mrs. Trapper"
Mis-. ]. D. Il } and Jessie" Mrs. n B }
were well presented, and displayed histri-
a ~ uoA l,,r
amateur peIf1rmers, The other characters
sustained their parts with credit to them
selves and acceptabIy to the audience.
The exercises we're concluded with an
entertaining sfterpiece entitled ga Silent
Protector, in which Mrs. J. D. IL as
Nancy, an unromantie ladys maid" dis
played quite as much originality as in the
play first enacted. Mr.. w. n as Quentin
Quickfdget, fast young man, makes love
to Lillian MRS. S. ?. McG.,) a romantic
young lady, and after great tribulation
finally obtains her hand. Mr.. j. B. O. as
Eobbler, enacted the role Of Sheliffs
officer to the life, while Mr.. E. C. appeared
asa Bond street fob, an exquisite of the first
water.
Though last, this piece was a very en-
joyable one, and was rlch in comical and
entertaining scenes.
Taken altogether, the entertainment
last night was well enjoyed by the entire
audience, who, by every means in their
power, testified their appreciation Of the
nigh character of the amusement afforded
them.
We cannot forbear to mention that at
one time during the after piece the gas un-
fortunately was turned off by what unto
ward accident we cannot explain, and the
audience we're left for several minutes in
almost total darkness. After a time the
gas was re-lit, perfect order restored, and
the play progressed without further delay.
It is to be hoped that such dark seance
will be avoided in future. or left to the
care of the Davenport Brothers.

THE STEAMER TENNESSEE.
Her Safe Arrival.


NEW YORK, Feb. 20.-The steamship
North America, for Rio Janeiro, via st.
Thomas, has just arrived, and brings
news of the safe arrival of the Tennessee
at San Domingo.
What the Commissioners were Do
ing Three Weeks AgO-InVestiga-
ItOns at Samana-Their Reception
by Baez-Their Future Plans.
SAN DOMINGO, Feb. 3.-The commits
sioners arrived from SANTANA Bay yester-
day. Every one connected with the party
are in excellent health. The want of
cOaling facilities delayed the ship six
days at SANTANA. The commission found
the inhabitants in the peninsula very gen
orally in favor Of annexation. A full ia
vestigation made into the ownership of
the land around the harbor, showed that
no United States official is involved 10
any private transactions there, whatever.
Fabens and associates, and 0'Sulivan,
have perpetual lease, at nominal price,
of nearly all the available water front
for large vessels, around the harbOr of
Sam4na. There is no valuable minerals
in that section.
The Commission landed here this MORT
ing and were formally received by Baez.
Wade explained lis character and OBJ
ject. Baez and his Cabinet gave them a
a cordial welcome. BaeZ said that peace
and stable government would follow
union with the United States. The pe0-
pie are all anxious for the union. Cabral
had no DOmluicans with him. The force
h. N
items and H6yii Was the real mover in the
whole matter He had information that
an incursiCn was to be made while the
Commissioners are here to influence them
and from his agents he had learned the
movement He expressed hope that
the Commissioners would examine all
cases and promised to extend every
facility.
Five Of the party came across the island
from SANTANA to this place. The COM
missioneTs find thus far no appearance of
public disturbances or diSsen ions. The
officers and crew Of the United States
steamers Tennessee, NaHtasket and Yam
tic, low at this harbor, are all well. The
commission will be here q week longer
and will probably visit Azua next. The
stories of trouble there are untrue. The
commission intend TO start for home in
about four weeks. Baez has agreed to
give safe conduct to Cabral or any of his
officers to come here and meet the COM
mission, and a messenger viii be dis
patched at once.
NEW YORK, Feb. 20.-The Tribune's
Samana Bay correspondence gives an &C
count of the voyage of the Tennessee.
The ship without fault entered the outer
harbor of SANTANA on The "a h day,
hot as q Greenlander's paradise.

before has there been such a large as
semblage, except on Presidential inaugur-
alton days. In various parts of the ave-
nue. bands of music are playing.
The President and other prominent
persons have got balcony at one of the
hotels. The stands on the markethouse
square are occupied by members OF Con-
gress and their families. Ali is excite
ment and gayety. Business is generally
suspended. The weather is pleasant.
The performances commence with trials
of horse speed, followed by pleasure
riding in carriages. During the after
noon there will be civic parade on foot,
and a wheelbarrow race.
LATER-The entire line of Pennsylva.
MIA Avenue was brilliantly Illuminated
to night from gas jets and Chinese Ian
terms. The carnival festivities of the
day closed with a grand pyratechnic dis,
play south of the Treasury.
