If two persons are 10 occupy a bed

a weighing scale as they retire, and they
will fad that their actual weight is at
least a pound less in the morning, FIRE.
quently there will be a loss Of two or
more pounds, aud the average loss
throughout the year will be q pound Of
matter, which has gone of from their
bodies, partly from the lungs and partly
through the pores OF the skin. The
escaped matter is carbonic acid aud
decsyed animal matter or poisonous ex-
halation. This is difused through
the air in part. and part alb.
sorbed by the b~ed-clothes. IL a
single ounce Of w%ool-cotton be burned
in a room il will so completely
saturate the air with smoke that one can
hardly breathe, though there can hardly
be % ounce Of foreign matter in the
air. IL an ounce Of cotton be burned
every. half an hour during the night, the
air will be kept continually saturated
with smoke. unless there be an open
window or door for it TO escape. Now,
the sixteen ounces oil smoke thus formed
is far less poisonous than the sixteen Of
exhaIations from the lungs and bodies Of
two persons who have lost a pound in
weight during the eight hours OF sleep
ing; for, while the dry smoke is mainly
taken inc the lungs, the damp odors from
the body are absorbed both into the
lungs and into the pores OF the whole
body. Need more be said to show the
Importance OF having bedrooms we'll

SENATOR WITHERS MAKES
HIS MAIDEN SPEECH,

Our new Senator, Withers,
seems to have made a good i'm.
preston, as the following abstract
Will show. He followed after Sem
ator Andy johnson last Monday,
and spoke no uncertain sound
His remarks have the ring of
boldness tempered by reason
Ed. News.
Mr.. Withers, of Virginia, said that
as representative of one of the oldest
States of the Union, a State which has
contributed as much as any other to
form and fix the character of the gov
eminent and TO protect the principles
of constitutional liberty, he claimed
the right 10 be heard at time when
their existence was threatened with
destruction. He maintained that the
Senate could not properly consider the
pending resolution i'm this special ses-
sion, and To express an opinion in ad
vance as to The action of the President,
would set dangerous precedent, and
might embarrass the future action Of
this body in cases of Impeachment
that might arise He commented up
on the attempt to pass, without
proper consideration, resolution
framed after much care by caucus OF
the majority, and in this connection
he referred to the Senator from lndi-
ana (Mr. Morton) a. welding the par
tn whip with relentless hand and LASH
ing into obedience the recalcitraut
members of his party like a skillful dri-
yer crowding his team over the pinch
of a hill. Mr.. Withers then proceeded
todiscuss the general questions involv
ed i'm the debate.
He alluded TO what he characterized
as the repeated infractions Of the pre-
sent Executive upon the other depart
ments OF the government, and his dis
regard of law which the Senate was
now asked TO approve. He condemn
ed in the strongest terms the military

THE NEW DIVISION OF THE
COUNTY.

Elsewhere will be found tie SUBJ
stance of the bill for redistTicting
the county. 1t will be seen that
the Judge holds in his hands the
division of Of our county. That
he will do it conscientiously ac-
cording to his Judgment we have
no sort of doubt. But we DO not
sec how p fair division can tc made
as to two revenue districts CT the
county without disregarding the
township lines. The new office of
Commissioner of the Revenue is
ain important one and the county
should be as equitable divided as
possible. The new incumbents
will hold their offices for four
years and fhcir work will form the
basis of or taxation four years to
come. The division should be
made as soon ss possible 50 the
people can know how to vote, for

course of General Sheridan in assum-
ing command in that State. He did
not believe that One-half or one tenth
OF the murders and outrages alleged
to have been committed In Lou
isiana had really taken place. There
were outrages and murders in other
States but no interference there, In a
merely partizan point of view the
adoption of this resolution would not
be unfortunate for his party, but on
this question he did not speak as a
partizan. In the next election the
naked question would be presented
whether there are any rights or liber-
ties of the people which the Executive
is bound to respect. He did not fear
the result. He had hoped that the
Anglo-Saxon race would be an ex-
ceptiOn to the historic rule of the sue
cess of usurpers. He believed the
people would assert their honor and
their sovereignty superior to both State
aud national officers.

We have seen copies OF the Va.
Patron, the new Grange paper,
published by j. W. Lewellen at
Richmond. 1t 10 a clear, large
and elegant journal, thoroughly de-
voted to the order, and, we doubt
not, will do much to place it in its
true character and colors before the
country. The rapid growth Of the
order has been much promoted by
the fact that its members have
shown their earnest determination
TO keep it clear of all political tinge
and the devotion they have exhib-
ited in the true development of the
farming interests of the country
The popular aPprehensions have
been dissipated ann a correspond
ing success warranted.
