Vegetable Perfumes and Health.

An italian professor has made some
very agreeable medical researches, re-
sulting in the discovery that vegetable
perfumes exercise positively healthful
influence on the atmosphere, converting
its oxygen into ozone, and thus increas-
ing its oxydizing influence. The es-
sences found to develop the largest
quantity of ozone are those of cherry,
laurel, cloves, lavender, mint, juniper,
lemons, fennel, bergamot those that
give it in smaller quantity are anise,
nutmeg, and thyme. The flowers of
the narcissus, hyacinth, mignonette,
heliotrope, and lily of the valley de-
velop ozone in closed vessels. Flowers
destitute of perfume do not develop it.
and those which have but slight per-
fume develop it only in small quantities.
Reasoning from these facts, the pro-
fessor recommends the cultivation of
flowers in marshy districts, and in places
infested with animal emanations, on
account of the powerful oxygen influence
of ozone. The inhabitants of such re-
gions should surround their dwellings,
with beds of the most oderiferous flow

Punishment in Delaware.
The whipping Post, the Pillory and the
GalloNys.

A correspondent who visited George
town, Delaware, writes as follows =
About the centre of the town, which
numbers between eight hundred and
nine hundred inhabitants, stands q re-
spectacle Court House, fronting north
directly to the southeast stands COM
mon-looking pump, as l supposed, but
upon more careful examination it proved
to be the far-famed whipping post, for
which Delaware is so widely reputed.
The post in question is an old one, and
has done good service in its day it is
about seven feet high. The prisoner is
made to hug the post, and his hands are
handcuffed to it bymeans of iron pieces,
which firmly hold the arm against the
post. A hole in the post allows a place
for the pillory, in which, under the law,
the prisoner has generally to stand be-
fore being fogged, supporting on his
neck and arms weight of about fifteen
pounds. There are but few persons
whose constitution can stand this pun
ishment one hour and live. Still the
people of the town claim these rites of
barbarism are the only remedy they
have against filling their jails with a set
of worthless rascals who would prefer
to let the county support them than to
work themselves. Directly in the rear
of the Court House, about one hundred
yards, stands the Jail, a substantial look
ing two-story building, the yard of
which is about thirty by forty feet and
is enclosed on three sides with brick
wall sixteen feet high and on the third
by the Jail building. Within this yard
is the gallows erected for the execution
of Green, alias Burton. This structure
is also worthy of our forefathers, and
would have probably answered excel
lently fifty years ago as a swift means
of transit into the next world. 1t is,
however, somewhat behind Cor ahead p
the inventions of the present age. 1t is
made of two Embarked oak saplings,
sixteen feet high and sixinches in diam
eter. These are erected about eight feet
apart, and across the top is placed and
bolted firmly with wooden bolts an oak
log, hewn about six inches square. In
the centre of this large iron hook is
placed, to which the rope was tied.
Pieces of timber are nailed from the
uprights to the Jail walls, about two feet
distant, about eight feet from the
ground. Upon these cross-pieces are
placed three sixteen feet pine planks,
thus forming a platform. In front OF
this and directly in the centre of the
gallows is the trap, which is about two
by three feet. Two large hinges attach
it to one of the planks forming the
platform, and it was supported by three
pieces of timber about one and half
inches thick, extending from the
ground. To the centre piece was at
tached rope. At the conclusion of the
services and after the cap had been
drawn over the face, the two outside
posts were removed, and at a given
signal the remaining one was suddenly
pulled out and Burton was launched into
eternity.

Things in France remain stupidity
dull on the surface, probably because
all parties are working in secret to cir
cumvent and outwit each other. One
of the fine schemes of the Conservatives
is to get up n pLeJiSciteto decide wheth-
er the government shall be Monarchical
or Republican. They imagine that, if
all the Imperialists and Monarchists
and anti-Thiers men will unite in voting
for the Monarchy, they will find them
selves in large majority, and can set
tie the little matter of whether the ma
tion shall have boy Emperor or King
among themselves afterward to their
entire satisfaction. But already the
various factions have begun to count
the chickens before the eggs are fairly
laid, and the people who might vote for
a Monarchy with one man at the head
of it decidedly object to going for a
Monarchy in the abstract, without know
ing whether they are to have the old
clothes of Louis Napoleon, or a royal
commonplace in the person of Cham
bord. "Show us the man," they ex-
claim, very naturally. They don't pro-
pose to play blind-man's buff any more
when throne is the stake. Meanwhile,
NJ. Thiers has shaken hands with NJ:
Gambetta, and henceforth the Republi-
cans will be one. This is a decided
gain; and SO long as the fire of public
danger keeps the Republicans pressed
together in common interest, idea, and
policy, their cause is safe.

Young Men and Marriage.

The Rev. Howard Crosby, D. D., in
an article discussing the obligations and
duties of young men, uses these words
The true girl has to be sought for.
She does not parade herself as show
goods. She is not fashionable. Gen
orally she is not rich. But, oh what a
heart she has when you find her-so
large, and pure and womanly When
you see it you wonder if those snowy
things outside are really women. If
you gain her love, your two thousand
are a million. She'll not ask for car
riage, or frst-class house. She will
wear simple dresses, and will turn them
when it is necessary, with no vulgar
mdgnifcdt to frown upon her company.
She'll keep everything neat and nice in
your sky parlor, and give you such a
welcome when you do come home that
you'll think your parlor higher than
ever. She'll entertain true friends on
a dollar, and astonish you with new
thought of how very little happiness
depends on money! She'll make you
love home-if you don't you're a brute
and teach you how to pity, while you
scorn, a poor fashionable society that
thinks itself rich, and vainly tries to
think itself happy.
Now don't, ! pray you, say any more
81 can't afford to marry" Go find the
true woman and you can. Throw away
that cigar, burn up that switch cane, be
sensible yourself, and seek your wife in
a sensible way"
