Proper Exercise.
creases.

When we talk about exercise, we are
very apt to forget that it is many
sided word. We use it as if it referred
merely to the movement of the muscles.
1t is necessary to health that all our
powers should be exercised, and the
continued disuse of any one of them
results in its partial or total loss. If
one should lie in bed for years, with
ont the slightest ailment, still one
would lose the use of the limbs; and
this is equally true of quite different
faculties. All our powers grow by use.
If we neglect to cultivate the habit of
observation, we might as well walk
through the world blindfolded.
We lose our faculty - what artists
call our touch - by neglect of
practice on other things beside the
piano. The man who seldoms reads,
reads slowly; the woman whose writing
is confined to an infrequent letter to
some absent child, spends more time
over that than does a practiced writer
over dozen pages of manuscript In
the realm of tho emotions it is the
same. Benevolence is largely matter
of habit. So is affection, self-control,
gentleness. If, then, exercise, in its
largest sense, is of so great conse-
quence, we at once see the impor-
lance of apportioning it to our own
personal deeds.
If our occupation is sedentary, we
need to plan for walks and rides, aud
active games, to keep our muscles 1.-THE
and serviceable. But if our employ
ment gives rs enough muscular action,
it is not one whit less imp 1rtant to our
health of body that we should plan for
mental exercise - for employment
enough of our memory aud our reason
ing powers to keep them from rusting.

THE WINNEMUCCA AND OREGON
RAILROAD.

Two lines of railroad to connect Port
land, Oregon, with the Central Pacific
Railroad, are now projected. One pro-
poses to intersect the Central Pacific
ut Kelton; the other at Winnemucca.
The friends of the former telegraph
from Washington that negotiations are
pending with English capitalists for its
construction. Meanwhile the friends
of the other are not idle, and there are
assurances of work being commenced
on the road at an early day. In view
of the prominence given the northern
road of late, and the probability of its
being built, the success of the Winnie
mucca and Portland road is of the
greatest importance to Northern Ne
vada, and particularly to Humboldt
county, through which it will run to
the Oregon State line. As there is
some difference of opinion. as to the
route Of this road. we have ascertained
from the President that it will run
from Winnemucca in a northerly direc-
ton until it crosses the State line near
Camp Bidwell. From that point its
course will be more westerly, across
Goose Lake Valley, near the lake;
thence through Drew's Valley and
Sprague River Valley to the Middle
Fork of the Willamette; thence down
that river to Portland. In the Viii
lamette Valley it will connect with the
Oregon and California Railroad, and
at the Columbia River with that piece
of the North Pacific running south of
Puget Sound. These connections and
other projected roads to the coast from
the main line will give the State of
Nevada a through and complete con
nection by rail with all the harbor ia
cilities of the coast of Oregon and
Washington Territory. extending into
British Columbia. The road will run
through heavy timbered belt, which
begins 40 miles northwest from Win
nemucca, and through the most popu-
lous valleys in Oregon.

ANDY JOHNSON may have much
harder time in ferreting out the rascal
ties of Jay Cooke in Washington than
he anticipated. and will probably never
ascertain definitely what became of his
SO, 900. 1t is now known that the
fourth fire in the Navy Department
was in the room adjoining that in which
Jay Cookies accounts were kept, and
that the records were disarranged and
much damaged by water, and when
wanted will probably be reported as
having been destroyed. 1t has also
leaked out that just before the fire the
Clerk in charge was given leave Of
absence. These little incidents show
that the managers Of the great moral
party are wide awake and will not be
caught mapping when Johnson pro-
poses an investigation in the Senate,
and Democrats appoint committees in
the House at the next session Of Con-
gress. It is not unlikely either that
many of the records of corruption and
tbieving will be secretly disposed of be-
fore many months, if they do not I'M
dergo a thorough fire and water puri-
hcation.

THE Pope has delivered an address
before the masnates of the church,
in which he admits and deplores the
manifold dangers that beset the Cath !.
olic faith. To use his own responding
language, the "sad days" of the church
have dawned. He expresses the hope,
however, that through the wisdom Of
her rulers the Papal church will sur
vive the storms of the present, and
more than regain the power and au-

SOUTH MOUNTAIN.

AS the people of Winnemucca are to
a great extent interested in the success
of mining operations in South Noun
tain and the prosperity of that district,
we quote the following relative thereto
from the correspondence of the Avail
anche:
1.-The mining operations for the
month of February have been light
compared with what can and Will be
done in future. AS stated in previous
letter the new furnace was put in oper-
alton on the 7th ult., and for want OF
coal shut down on the 18th. On ac-
count of the moisture of the new
furnace, the first three days operations
amounted to nothing; consequently
there were but nine days that produced
any other results than the drying of
the furnace. In these nine days two
hundred and sixty tons of ore were put
through, producing little more than
thirty eight tons of bullion, containing
Silver. Sl3, 292 53
