Death Of Benito Jnarez.
A Tc'csraphic report from Ma'a
moras, received a few dnvs ago, an
nounccs the sudden death from apo
pleXv, at the City Of Mexico, of Pres
ident Bcnito Juarcx, Of that Rcpub-
lie. His struggles against Miguel
Miramon were long and bloody and at
tended by cruelties which would have
dissraced the IIottentots. The admin
istration of Juarez, which came into
power under the Plan of Iutla-one
Presidential term of four years-frst
agreed upon in the mountain region
Of Guadalupe y Calvo; has been a
stormy one, prior to and since the pc
Rod of the overthrow of Maximilian
to the present time. Juarez at one
time, and when his fate seemed suspen-
ded upon a single thread a tangled
skein intertwistel by that willy di plo-
matist, Win. II. Srward-took reiug
in the City of chihuahua, fleeing
President from the army of Marshal
Bazaine, whose advanced column was
then at Durango, driving the heroic
sons of the Hidalgos all before them.
The rctrcating President, if hard
pressed, contemplated making his way
to FL Paso, and then crossing over the
Rio Grande on the American side
At that critical iuncture he heard OF
the assassination of President Lin
coin, which deeply affected his scnsi-
blites, and induced him to change
his determination. He was then at
the City of Chihuahua, and going to
the Monument of the nartvrcd Mi
gncl IIilalgo, in the District of ltur-
hile, where the Father of Mexican
Independence lies inferred, he vowed
before God and High Heaven that he
would retrea, no farther. Here he
would make his last stand and drive
the French invaders from his native
land or perish in the effort.
In few DAYS his mind was relicv-
ed by the withdrawal of the French
troops, and he then put his house in
order to return to the capital Of Ana
huac. His successor will be the Chief
Justice of the Supreme Court, Don
I.erdo de Tciada, of Guadala lara. in
the State Of ,TaliSro, his Formidable
rival and the favorltc of most Of the
Eevolutlonis>s, who for So long Il pc
Rod have been holding the Republic
in state Of anarchy. 1t is quite pos,
siblc that Gen. ignacio fesQuicra,
Governor of the volcanic region OF
Sonora, and Manuel Montevcrle, his
Secretary of State, u verItabIe Allni,
raj Crichton, who studied law with
Juarez, may also aspire to the Frcsi
Dental Office. P"SJuiera is bold and
ambitions, and Mont verde for State
craft might rival Cardinal Richlieu or
Prince Talleyrand.
Juarez was u fuIl-blooled Indian, :
descendant of the Aztec race and
gloried in the historic record OF Mon

race. He was a II ,tivc of the State of

Open Windows at Night.

Very much has been written on this subject, and written unwisely; the facts are that whosoever sleeps uncomfortably cool will get sick. To hoist a window sky high when the mercury is at zero is an absurdity.
 The colder sleeping apartment is, the more unhealthy does it become, because cold condenses the carbonic acid formed by the breathing of the sleeper. It set ties near the floor and is rebreathed, and if in a very condensed form, he will die before the morning. Hence we must be governed by circumstances. The first thing is, you must be comfortably warm during sleep-otherwise you are not refreshed, and inflammation of the lungs may be engendered, and life de- stroyea within few days.
 An open door and an open fireplace are sufficient for ordinary purposes in very cold weather. When outer win dows are opened, it is well to have them down at the top two or three inches, and up at the bottom the same space.
 In miasmatic localities-and these are along water-courses, beside millponds, marshes, bayous, river bottoms, fiat lands, and the ike-it is most important, from the first of August until several severe frosts have been noticed, to sleep with all external doors and windows closed, because the cool air of sunset causes the condensation of poisonous emanations which were caused by the heat of the noonday sun to rise far above the earth; this condensation makes the air s'heavy" at sundown, made heavy by the greater qualification of the em- anations by cold; and resting on the sur face of the earth in their more concen- trated malignant form, they are breathed into the lungs and swallowed into the stomach, corrupting and poisoning the blood with great rapidity.
 By daylight, these condensations are made so compact by the protracted cool ness of the night, that they are too near the surface of the earth to be breathed into the system; but-as the sun begins to ascend, these heavy condensations, miasms begin to rise again to the height of several feet above the ground and are freely taken into the system by every breath and swallow; hence the hours of sunrise and sunset are the most unhealth- full of all the hours of the twenty four in the localities named; and noontide, when the sun is hottest, is the most healthful portion of the day, because the miasm is so much more rarefed that it ascends rapidly to the upper regions. 5F e
 The general lessons are: Avoid expos ure to the outdoor air in miasmatic To- calities for the hours including sunrise and sunset. 2d Have blazing fire on the hearth of the family room at those hours, to rarely and send the miasn up. wards. 3d. Take breakfast before going out of doors in the morning, and take tea before sundown; then being out af, ter night is not injurious.-Hal's Jour nal

PHYSIOLOGICAL, ACTION OF OrJTNJl

PHYSIOLOGICAL ACTION OF QUININE. The physiological action of quinine has lately been the subject of detailed expert ment by Binz, who found it to have ex- traordinary power in arresting the pro- cess of fermentation and putrefaction and to be a powerful poison for low or ing bodies consisting of protoplasms. It appears to kill fungi and bacteria, which accompany fermentation and putrefaction, and puts 8 stop to these processes. It arrests the motion of the white blood corpuscles, and thus pre- vents them from making their exit from the blood-vessels. It, therefore, dimin- ishes or arrests the formation of pus in inflammation, pus consisting in great measures of all accumulation of white corpuscles which have issued from the vessels. It also destroys the power of certain substances to produce ozone. The red blood corpuscles have this power, and, by depriving them of it, quinine, when present in the blood, must diminish the change of tissue in the body, and thereby lessen the pro- duction of heat. It is also found that quinine lessens oxidation in the blood other substances, such as snake poison, increasing it. When putrid fluids are injected into the circulation of an animal, it's temperature rises but if these are previously mixed with quinine, this rise is arrested, or very much diminished. According to Zuntz, the use of quinine has marked influence upon the excre- tion of urea, the amount diminishing very greatly.

The Memory,

It was said of Thoreau, we believe, that he could take up any given number of lead-pencils without counting. A celebrated trapper once assured us that he could tell how many balls he had in his buuet-pouch by placing his hand on it and without stopping to count them, and added, (" I can tell the number of bullets instantly without counting, as you pronounce word without spelling it" Southey was accustomed to take the leaves over continuously, glancing down the pages. Houdan the magician trained himself to quickness of percep- tion when boy, by running past a show-window at full speed, and then trying to tell what was in it. We once met a man on a canal-boat, who was amusing himself by going from pas senger to passenger, and telling almost every one where he had seen them be- fore, on such train, in such hotel, in in such a street, giving date and place to people with whom he had never ex- changed word. This training of the faculties in particular directions is car ried to a marvellous extreme by woods men, trappers, and men who guess the weights of animals. Perhaps the most remarkable instances are the markers who leap from log to log at the mouth of a boom, standing on the floating log and translating instantly an old mark into new one, remembering what eqi- valent to give for each of hundred marks, and chopping it upon the log in the time that it floats it's length. It is said that Thoreau knew the relative order of the Towering of all the plants in the Concord woods, and knew the note of every bird, and thousand other out-of-the-way things besides.

Railways have not yet penetrated to

Railways have not yet penetrated to EChamotnix and other parts of Savoy, ana Communications are yet kept up by this strange looking vehicle, of which it is difficult to convey any idea to an Ameri- can reader. The office of the diligence was situated about two blocks from the Hotel Metropole, where we were staying, and we had chance of seeing those vehicles every morning, taking in their compliment of tourists for the trips to Chamounix and Mt. Blanc. Imagine the coupe of a railway carriage, and old fash toned carriage and Broadway omnibus,
 all joined together, with a doctors gig,
 the drivers seat, removed from. the back to the front, placed upon the top; and that will give you faint idea of what a Swiss diligence resembles. The horses, the harness, and the driver baff1e descrip- tion. Lexicon could not do them justice. ton of the confederation. Voltaire, when
 residing here, used to ridicule it's diminu-
 tive size by saying, "When l shake my wig, I powder the whole canton."
 In walking on the Pont des Bergues, one of the bridges which crossesthe Rhone,
 we noticed on both sides of the river, long
 
 large number of washboards, each one
 being presided over by stout Swiss wo- | man, who pounds her customers clothing
 with huge wooden mallet, and keeps up an animated conversation with her neigh Dor at the same time. It may be very
 effective way of re moving the dirt, but I thought it rather rough on the clothes. | It was a singular sight to see nearly fifty of these washwomen all talking and ham,
 mering together, and every time they
 wished tc be more emphatic or convincing
 in their argument, they would bring down the mallet with force that would make the old shed rattle. While contemplating
 the labors of these water nymphs, from
 my stand point as married man, and
 Knowing how it was myself" when putting on clean linen, to discover the
 absence of a button, could not but think what an immense amount of trouble and
 vexation they were weekly inficting on | the married men and women of Geneva, l by their reckless use of the mallet, when they are knocking the dirt out, and the
 buttons off of all the clothes entrusted to their care. I left this scene of mangled
 shirt bosoms, feeling happy in the con sciousness that Geneva was not my abid- | ing place. The Ex- Queen Isabella of Spain,
 was stopping at the Metropole, and occu- pied one wing of it with her suite. I met
 her in the corridor on her way to her
 carriage. She is stout, coarse looking
 person, and had very little of that divinity
 that doth hedge King or Queen, about
 her. If she had on calico dress and
 stood guard over an apple stand, she would
 really have not looked out of place.

A TERMAGANr.-It is but a few weeks since A. M. Holbrook, one of the editors of the New Orleans Picayune, was married to Pearl Rivers" The other day, as Mrs, Holbrook was at her toilette, she turned round and was confronted by a well-dressed woman, who immediately fired upon her with 8 pistol. After a second shot Mrs. Holbrook seized the weapon, and the two women struggled for some seconds upon the floor, when the assailant picked up bottle of bay rum and shattered it into hundred frag- ments over the head of her victim. Then she continued the attack with china vase, and the servants having all depart ed, the infuriated female had the house all to herself, which she soon made the scene of confusion and ruin by smashing the elegant crockery and all the finest furniture. Some time afterwards po- liceman arrived and effected stay of proceedings, takinS her to the station house, where MT.

EDITORIAL OP1N1oNs.-An advertise ment is, as a general rule, an elaborate eulogium on the merits of something which the advertiser desires to sell. The editors and publishers of the paper in which it appears are not responsible for it's statements: Sometimes, however, highly important discoveries or inven- tions, announced to the world through the business departments of the press, seem to denaand few words of editorial com mendation. We have no hesitation in saying that the excellent medicine intro duced by Dr. Joseph Walker, of Califor- nia, under the name of VINEGAR BITTERs, belongs to this category, and has just claim to a favorable notice. There can be no doubt as to it's utility as tonic, stomachic and alterative. We are cog nizant of many instances in which it has cured cases of chronic dyspepsia, supposed to be incurable, and know that the esti- nation in which it is held as remedy for bilious and nervous disorders, inter- mittent and remittent levers, rheumatism and general debility, is founded on experi- ence and we'll deserved.
