By the above it will be seen that the
Governor, who by virtue OF his office has
charge Of the property and effects oI the
State, made contract Tor the insurance
Of the property in his possession; and also
that the Auditor refuses to recognize him
as the custodian Of the said effects Of the
State, but affirms that the man who
builds the fires and sweeps out the rooms
Of the GoveSpor and other officers Of the
State, Is the one who must insure the
building and draw his order for payment
upon the Auditor, payable out of the CON.
tingent fund. Patrick was therefore
hunted up BY insurance agent No. Q and
made to Issue his order Aforesaid, in favor
OF said agent No. 2, and which order the
Auditor as promptly paid, as .hel had
promptly refused to pay the order Of the
Governor. 20 shame where is thy

BATHING CHILDREN. Some mothers
think that when their children get
beyond two or three years Of age, the
frequent entire bath can be dispensed
with. If some Of the main facts OF
physiology we're well known and under
stood, every one would perceive that
cleanliness of skin is one of the eondi-
tions of good health. 1t happens that
when bathing is disregarded, that the
lungs, kidneys or bowels have more than
their own appointment of work. If
these are strong and healthy, they may
bear the tax with little apparent injury,
but, in most cases, lowering of the vi
tally and tone Of the system en-
sues. Large bath.tubs are pleasant and
convenient, but not indispensable to the
proper cleansing of the skin. A speedy
sponging of the body in pure water, fol-
lowed by friction In pure. air, is all that
is necessary. When disinclined to use
water, find thorough application of
the fesh-brush to the whole person an
admirable substitute; especially, on re-
firing, it relieves nervousness, equalizes
the circulation and induces quiet sleep.
Mothers, above all, should see that their
children are we'll bathed. If their skins
are kept active and healthy, there will
not be half the danger from fevers,
colds and eruptive diseases. If your
little one is cross or troublesome, and
finds no occupation that pleases him,
try the effect of bath; sometimes it is
magical, and, if tired, be will go to sleep,
and awaken bright, cheerful and happy.
Do not, though, as have seen many
mothers do, plunge a child into cold
water when he screams and shriDks from |
it, thinking you are doing good deed
Nature must be the guide; if your child
has nervous constitution, shock Of
this kind is only exhausting and injuri-
ous.-Agriculturist.

NEW Uses FOR PAPER.-The univer-
sal cheapness Of paper compared with
cotton, linen and wooden fabrics, has led
to a long expressed desire to utilize it
in the manufacture of articles of cloth
ing. Barbarous and semi-civilized ma
tions have long, employed paper clothing.
Collars, cuffs, frills, and variety of mi
nor articles made of paper have been
introduced and successfully manufac-
tured in this country and in Europe, but
the introduction of paper cloth as ma
terial for dress goods has hitherto seemed
unattainable. An invention has been
recently introduced in England, which
Is said to be success, and by means of
which a fabric combining the essential
conditions of strength, durability and
cheapness, has been manufactured. 1t
is described IS being mixture of vari-
Gus animal and vegetable substances, the
former being wool, silk and skins, while
the latter consists of fax, iute, hemp

duced to pulp, bleached and then felt

ture of these several materials is said to
produce a fabric of wonderful fexibility

FOR 1875-EIGHTH Wharf.-The ART
JOURNAL OF AMERICA, ISSUED MONTH
LY.
"a magnificent conception wonder
fully carried out"
The necessity of popular medium
for the representation Of the productions
of our great artists, has always been rec
ognized, and many attempts have beer
made to meet the want. The successive
failures which so invariably followed
each attempt in this country to establish
an art journal, did not prove the indiff'
erence of the people of America to the
claims of high art. So soon as proper
appreciation of the want and an ability
to meet it we're shown, the public at once
rallied with enthusiasm to its support,
and the result was great artistic and
commercial triumph The Aldine.
The Aldine, while issued with all the
regularity, has none of the temporary
or timely interest characteristic of ordi-
nary periodicals. 1t is an elegant mis-
cellany of pure, light, and graceful liter.
AZURE; and collection of pictures, the
rarest specimens of artistic skill, in black
and white. Although each succeeding
number affords fresh pleasure to its
friends, the real value and beauty of the
Aldine will be most appreciated after it
is bound up at the close of the year.
While other publications may claim su.
perior cheapness, as compared with ri
walls of a similar class, The Aldine is an
unique and original conception-alone
and nnapproached-a absolutely without
competition in price or character. The
possessor of complete volume can
not duplicate the quantity OF fine paper
and engravings in any other shapeor
number Of volumes for ten times its
cost aud then, there is the chrome, be-
sides
The national feature of The Aldine
must be taken in no narrow sense. True
art is cosmopolitan. While The Alline
is strictly American institution, it does
not confne itself entirely to the repro
duction of native art. Its mission is to
cultivate broad and appreciative> art
taste, one that will discriminate only on
grounds of intrinsic merit. Thus, while
placing before the patrons of the Aldine,
as leading characteristic, the produc-
tions of the most noted American artists,
attention will always be given to speci-
mems from foreign masters, giving sub
scribers all the pleasure and instruction
obtainable from home or foreign sources.
The artistic illustration of American
scenery, original with The Aldine, is an
important feature, and its magnificent
plates are of size more appropriate to
the. satisfactory treatment of details than
can be afforded by any inferior page.
The judicious interspersion of landscape,
marine, figure, and animal subjects, sus-
tain an undated interest, impossible
where the scope of the work confines the
artist too closely to single style of sub
ject The literature of the Aldine is a
light and graceful accompaniment, wor-
thy of the artistic features, with only
such technical disquisitions as do not in
terfere with the popular interest of the
work.
