The indignity offered to the navy
in the order of Secretary Rohcson
rnrloughing three or four. hundred
| officers 70 not diminished by the
fact that it prohibits any officer from
| wearing his uniform while on fur
longh. Placing man on furiough
in the nary has always been a pun
ishment inflicted on worthless Off.
GERS or those whom, 3 csurt-nartial
could not reach. Perhaps there is
no country on the face Of the earth
where such an indlgnity could be
offered TO a set Of men who served
their country SO we'll in its hour Of
periL II is we'll for Farragut aud
Dupont, Foot and Dahlgren, that
they died before this humiliation
was imposed on the IN. Porter,
Rowan. Levy, Almy, Preble., Nichols,
Guest, Bryson and Fairfax are. all
men who pe1iled their lives more
than once and whose names are
regarded with affection by the peo-
pie. These officers, and many 9TH
ers of less note, have fallen under
this ban OF Robcson's 'lispleasure,
nr, notwithstanding his ingenious
order, in-which-~he speaks of .ssthe
'isagreeahle duty imposed .npon him
by the action of Congress-" no one
will believe shat this act was not
inspired by malice and revenge.
There was no necessity for it. The
amount appropriated by Congress
wac ample to pay all the officers Of
the navy full pay for nine months
and half. And it is only three
months before Congress could meet
to remedy the deficiency. Without
''"uht there will be searching
investigation into this matter when
Congress does meet. There is q
general impression among members
in reference to the order of Mr..
Isnheson and q suspicion that it was
issued really to secure pa, mert for
a number of contractors who might
prove troublesome witnesses,in case
Of non-payment. In the meantime
The gallant officers Of the navy re-
main Inundated, degraded from
their ranks, and will scarcely feel it
IN lonoV 20 wear again the uniform
which Roheson has attempted to soil.

BALANCING By SHeETs.-There
was recently, and still is, an old
gentleman in Maine who had four
sons and one daughter, and in the
same neighhorhood was another old
gentleman who had one son and four
daughters, making ten sons and
daughters in all. And what did
these two old rascals do but turn
right in and from time to time get
~ five weddings, the four sons and
one daughter of the one marrying
The four daughters and one son Of
the other. The spectacle of five

Quinine should not be eaten after n
hearty meal of India rubber; the sper-
maceti contained in the former will unite
with the oxalic acid of the latter, and
wagon grease will be evolved with dis
astrous results. Before taking bath
the entire body should be carefully
washed. Then lay on II coat of tar and
get into the water. 1t can't touch you
anywhere. Ii is not so fashionable rs it
was to clopa cord OF wood before break
fast: none but very old men, who cling
to traditions of youth like lean leech
to a stuffed frog. ever do it, and they
commonly perish Mt it. Getting out of
bed in Precipitation is to be avoided
always lie in bed rs long as you can find
any excuse for it, Nothing is more in
furious than the ordinary method of 60
ing up stairs: il causes the allkali i'll the
blood to settle in the corns, producing
arianism and strang,llation. The proper
way is to lie on your stomach and go up
feet first Never sleep with yonr eyes
shut; it is Il degenerate habit. Bathing,
as intimated above, Is conducted on II
wrong principle. 1T is probable that the
custom might be advantageously abol-
ished altogether lighthouses and bath
ing-rooms in dwellings are II thing of
recent growth Our grandfathers sell
dom or never bathed; and it is conceded
that they lived TO be several hundred
years old. Potatoes should always be
eaten with the skins on; skins contain
bicarbonate of mucilage, which is just
what the liver requires. When the
custom of giving the skins to the poor
originated, science was wholly unknown.
There are more things it would be we'll
to know, but strict compliance with
the rules already given will enable you to
live as long as you will wish to. Further
instructions would not prolong your
misery.
