1t seems to us impossible to read it and not tc
believe in the truth of the man who spoke il
under the soemnity of an oath. Mr.. Beechei
has yet to undergo cross-examination that will
undoubtedly be severe and searching. and perhaps
brutal in its tone. He is not the man, however,
whom lawyer can very successfully worry OF
bully, and we may be snre that the recital that
he has now given will stand in the end un-
marred and unimpeached.
Boston Adrertiser.
II was the first tme he has spoken under the
solemnities of an oath, and that, in the eyes OF
most lookers-on, made his appearance and his
testimony more impressive. 1t is apparent that
during the last month his friends have been
greatly encouraged, and each successive witness
has brought out fresh expressions of sympathy
IN his favor Whether on account Of the great
er self possession of his witnesses, or the skill
of his counsel, the testimony for the defence
has appeared much more effective and invinci-
BILE than when it was given to the committee Of
Plymouth church.

How we Breathe.

Acquatic animals breathe by means Of
gills, which are membranes prolonged
externally into tufts and fringss, through
which the aerat;nn of the blood is effect
ed. Insects have Il series of tubes rami.
flying through the whole body, and carry
ing air to the blood ofevery part. In the
human lung the sides or walls of the air.
cells are constituted of tLin, transpar-
ent membranes, and capillary vessels are
situated between the walls oflwo adjacent
cells, so as to be exposed to the action of
the air on both sides. The number of the
air cells Of the lungs have been estima-
ted at six hundred millions. The capaci-
ty of the lungs varies greatly in different
individuals. NJ. Bourgery concludes
from his inquiries that the development
OF the air-cells continues up to the age OF
thirty, at which time the respiratory Ca
pacity is greatest. According to the ex-
reriments of Mr.. Coatllupe, little more
than two hundred and sixty-six cubic feet
nf air pass through the lungs Of a middle
sized man in twcnty-four hours. At the
average number of sixteen inspirations
per minute, the amount Of air received at
each inspiration would be twenty cubic
inches Mr.. Hutchinson ju7ges the ca
pacity of the lungs by "the quantity OF
air which an Individual can force out OF
the chest by the greatest voluntary cxpi
ration after the greatest voluntary inspi
ration" Dr.. Southwood Smith, from a
series of experiments, estimates the vol
ume Of air received at an ordinary expi-
ration at little less than pint He also
concludes that in the mutual action which
takes place between the air and blood
the air looses thirty-sevcn ounces of oxy
