SAD AccIDENT.-We are panied 10

which befell the little son of Mrs.
LANapoN. the other day, while play.
ing with some children ia the woods
1t appears that the little boy (who
was about I years ofage) had climbed
Q tree, in sport, and when some dis
lance from the ground, lost bis hold
and fell with such force as to break
his leg in two places above the knee,
driving fragments Of the broken thigh
bone out through the flesh and skin.
In this horrid and painful condition
the little sufferer was permitted to lay
for some time before medical assistance
was rendered. From what We can
learn We fear that the accident will
urove fatal. Mr.. LANapoN, father Of
the little boy, resides in New Orleans,

Parish . short time since, on a visi,

HYGIENE.
NUMBER III.

An acquaintance with a few chemi-
cal facts and physiological truths will
he essential to proper understanding
of the present number Of our series.
|. 1t must he remembered that
Oxygen is the great life-giving prin-
ciple of the animal creation, while
Carbonic Acid is equally necessary
to vegetable growth and development.
2. Our beings, like so many NINA
ture furnaces, in their process Of slow
combustion, are continually consum-
ing the former and exbaling the latter.
3. While Carbonic Acid is not a
positive poision, it is not a supporter
of combustion or respiration.
From the foregoing premises the
follow ing bygienic corollaries are
clearly deducible:
/. Air that has been once bresthed
is unfit to be taken into the lungs
a second time
2. 1t is very unhealthy for q large
number of persons to remain in q
crowded ill-ventillated apartment for
any length Of time.
3. School Houses, Churches, Court
Rooms, and other public buildings
should be constructed with reference
to the free admission Of plentiful
supply of fresh air.
4. Other things being equal, bed
rooms without fire are most whole
some as in the consumption Of The
fuel, more particularly if it is minera
coal, noIious gases arc evolved which
arc deleterious to health.
