along the parapet to where there stood a
flower-pot containing withered shrub
and few handfuls of mold. Over this
she stopped, taking out the plant, to
which the dry earth firmly adhered, and
carefully depositing the packet beneath
it. This done, the somnambulist re-
turned to her own room in the same way
that she had quilted it, crept into bed
again and slept soundly for some hours.
It wss not till the day had dawned
that Katie could nerve herself to repeat
this exploit; and then it was on her
hands and knees that she crawled along

the mystery was solved-there had been
no robbery. Miriam herself had been
the dark figure at the window-it was
she who, her dreams perturbed by some
dread of losing the money, had risen
from her bed and hid it in this strange
and unsupported hiding. place.

for the proof of it that her rejoicing sis

was busy one, for the recovery of the
money had to be signified to the police j;

Katie and stare at Miriam as the heroine
of strange adventure that the work of

There was much to ask and to tell
when they reached home; but it was not

given up to its owner and Katie sat with

betrothed that she told the tale of the
lost money and how unexpectedly it had
been recovered.-Casselps Ma1azi1ae.

WHY PAINTS CRACK AND PEEL.-A
writer in the Hub thinks that the cause
of paint cracking and peeling is to be
found in the water which is contained in
linseed oil as it comes from the hands of
the manufacturer. He made the expert
ment of boiling linseed oil by steam un-
til all the moisture was expelled from it.
On using this oil, without any dryer, it
was found to dry in one-hslf the time.
He then mixed with it some siccohast,
using only half the usual quantity en-
ployed to dry oil not boiled, and obtained
similar results. "The introduction" says
he, "of steam into the linseed before
grinding aids in the expulsion of the oil /:
but it must stand long time to precipi-
tate the water completely"

HON. JOHNSON n. CAMDEN.

The dispatch which We published yes
terday, announcing the withdrawal from
the Senatorial contest of Hon. JOHNSON
y CAMDEN, was received at too late an
hour to admit of earlier editorial COM
ment.
The gentleman unseliish devotion 10
the welfare of the Democratic party Is al
ready an universally acknowledged fact
in this State. 1t was, on this account,
that he was selected by a very large por-
ton Of the adherents Of his party as the
one who most deserved TO be invested
with the high dignity aud honor Of the
Senatorship.
But seeing that he could not control the
majority of the Democratic votes in the
Legislature, and thinking that he was,
through the faithfulness of his friends,
rather impeding the settlement of the
interesting question, in an eloquent and
graceful letter he refused longer TO stand
in any such position, and withdrew from
the field.
This action but adds fresh lustre to
Mr.. CAMDEN record, and doubtless will
reflect more real honor upon him as II
man and as Democrat, than even had
he been chosen to the position for which
he has made so gallant fight.

Not a New Mode of Treating Dis
eases of the Lungs.

Consumption is n two-fold diSenSc, one
affecting the parenchyma, or substance of
the Lungs, and the other the mucus MEM
braneS that line the air passages ana cells.
Sometimes these occur separately, but are
usually united in genuine Consumption.
The tubercular deposit can only he reach

DrcrcHt this deposit, or To TenOre II 6y 40
NDrption when found, We must employ
those agents which exert an Alternative and
healing effect on the Lungs.
For the affection of the mucuS mem
brane, Medicated Inhalation may he en-
plOycd with the best results. This mode OF
treatment brings the medicine in direct
contrct with the disease, and when an APP
proprate remedy has been selected, the
irritation. inflammation, and liberation
may not only be modified and SOothcd, but
ultimately entirely subdued.
There is then, in complete and succeSSiul
treatment, an absolute necessity tor combin-
ingappropriate remedies addressed to the
general constitution with the inhalation
and other mechanical means.
In all cases of asthma. simple bronchitis,
laryngitiS, traChCaitiS, even when the in
hammation extends To the mucuS MEM
branes lining the air cells, whether chron-
ic or acute, Medicated Inhalation with
general treatment may be reSortcd towith
the hope of decided benefit.
The unin formed are liable To be- mislcd

diseases OF the Lungs were merely local
affection, not involving or resulting from
constitutional disturbance, an attempt to
cure it 10y local applications would be
more rational and much more successful
than il now is.
But consumption, asthma, bronchitis,
&c, are not mere local affections. Like
most other arrangements of the vital
forces, they have their origin in morbid
condition of the general system, and can
only be successfully encountered by the
use of agents which restore the diSordcrcd
functions to their normal condition.
While this is being done, the inhalation of
