ED JEFF Some time since series
Of questions ~: Chemistry y. re asked in
your paper ih-s- were answered in
the issue "f April 7fh W. think that
some of those questions were not cor
rectly answered: therefore, we tt Ike the
privilege of sending different answers to
those questions.
l. The constituents of which the air
is composed are oxygen and Nitrogen.
2. They are associated in their COM
bination in the ratio of four parts of nj.
trogen to one of oxygen.
3. The Office of oxygen in respiration
is to oxygenize the blood by uniting with
the carbon, thus forming carbonic acid
and some hydrogen. which is exhaled as
watery vapor.
5. The effect of inhaling pure oxygen
would be death, ON account of the over
action and fever that would be pro-
duced.
S. The effect of inhaling pure nitrogen
would be that death would follow In
very short time, but from an entirely
different cause than from iphaiing pure
oxygen. In inhaling pure oxygen, death
results from the fact that an over ;ction
is produced; in inhaling pure nitrogen,
death quickly follows because there is
no oxygen.
10. The greatest cause tending to pro-
duce carbonic acid gas in the school
room is the depression of the nervous
centers resulting from hard study and
poor ventilation.
Is. The combinations of carbon and
oxygen that are deleterious to health
are carbonic acid and carbonic oxide.
There is no reason why oxalic acid
should be mentioned, as hydrogen also
forms part of this acid.

Rfi.i,.I0S AND MANNERS.

Good religion and good manners al
ways go together They are things that
God has joined. and no man can put them
asunder. This follows from the nature
of religion, which is the love OF God,
and the love of our fellow-men. Ii is a
compliance, in some good degree, with
the two great commandments of the di-
vine law. 1t is the exercise of proper
feelings toward God, and a correspond
ing treatment of Him; and the like to-
wards our neighbor. He who has true
religion, is a renewed man. Holy love
has been shed abroad in his heart by the
Holy Spirit. And that love makes him
kindly disposed toward all. This the
respect of the Gospel require of him.
He is to love not only those who love
him, and treat them kindly; but he is to
love even his enemies, if lie has them.
and to treat them with kindness. So
did the Saviour, who is TO be the exam
pie of all his disciples.
Religion, having its seat in the heart
is developed in the outward life. 1t
:todifies and shapes tbe conduct. 1t has
upon its possessor a refining influence
1t improves his manners Under its
power he becomes more kind, and gentle,
and courteous. Such was its effect upon
the great apostle. Before his CONVEX
sion, he was impetuous and headstroDg.
He was overbearing, caring little for the
interests of Others. But religion tanned
him. 1t subdued his natural ferocity,
and made him lamb-like To the Thes.
salonian Christians he thus wrote: "We
were gentle among you, even as a nurse
cherisheth her child" We find him in
all circumstances, an example of cour-
tesy.
But it may be said, that some Chris
tians are unmannerly and boorisl. They
are greatly lacking in kindness and
friendliness. Weare constrained to ad-
init that it is so. We are not ourselves
strangers to such. But it is nevertheless
true, as we said at the outset, that good
religion and goot manners always go to-
gether. There are no exceptions 1t is
no more true that good religion and dis
honesty go together, than it is that good
religion and i'll manners go together.
Those boorish and unmannerly Chris
tians are lacking in good religion. They
are greatly deficient here; and that is the
reason why they behave no better Let
them increase their religion; let them get
more of the genuine article, and they will
beimproved outwardly in an equal de-
gree as inwardly. There is not deficiency
at which some precept of the Gospel
does not aim a blow, and which is not
rebuked by the example of Him who
was ''holy, harmless, and undefiled."
To learn good manners, one does not
need to go to school to Lord Chester
field. He can better learn them in the
school of Christ, where he has ever before
him perfect rules, and perfect example.

Is "LAw- ALWAYS "JUSTICE.,

The Elkron (Ky.) Witness says tina
quite a touching scene recently took
place at the courthouse in that town.
John Garner, an old, gray-headed man,
was arraigned for the crime of grand lar
ceny-horse stealing. He pleaded guilty,
and presented himself to the jury in a
brief and touching address. He said
GENTLEMEN oFTHR JURY: lam an
old man, and my race is nearly run.
This is the. first time in my life 1 have
ever teen before jury. have never
even been a witness in magistrates

been hard-working and an honest man
all my life until now. L am strnger

known me for nine years, and he will
tell you have been an honest man and
a good citizen. This jury looks ike

wish YOU to deal with me the best you
can read in the papers that the pris-
on at Frankfort is an awfnl place-that

not get any work. The times were very

love my family as well as any man,
and could not think of their starving.
The prisoner became overwhelmed
with emotion, and, pausing a few mo-
ments, he pleaded for as light verdict
as the jury could give him. The occa-
sion was exceedingly solemn. The pris-
oner told his story without reservation.
Age and care had whitened his locks
aud furrowed his brow He had seen
better days, but he was now a broken
reed. The jury, attorneys, the judge
and the spectators, were touched by the
homely recital of the suppliant prisoner.
The jury gave him two years in the PEN
itentiary, and the judge, jury and law
Yers, then signed a petition to the Gov
ernOr for his pardon.

Soft SOAP AS A WEAPoN.-The most
memorable cleaning that ever was done
with soft soap was when it cleaned out
band of savages. Soft soap was first
most effectually applied in this country
by the Swedish women who defended
the old Qog) Swedes' church below Phil
adelphia before the city was laid out.
A friendly squaw gave notice of an in
tended attack by the Indians. The Sean
dinavian ladies were boiling soap, and
they at once concluded to convert the
contents of the kettle into ammunition
of defense. They lifted it into the
church with fire-wood to keep it hot.
As the warriors began to undermine the
foundation, they received on their bare
backs spirited fire of the terrible ma
terial, which in due time sent them
bowling into the wilderness. The incl
dent was related by participant, who
died in London at an advanced age. She
was grand daughter of the Swedish
bargher, Suen Schulz.

Too Much Noise FOR THE SIZE.-Af-
ter most ridiculous aud extravagant
plea by a young lawyer in a trivial case,
an older lawyer who had a way of say
ing quaint things, remarked, in opening
the opposing side of the case, that this
young friends elaborate plea reminded
him of the experience of a neighbor of
his who was once engaged in breaking a
colt, and the story he told of it was in
substance like this:
The colt breaker made his young sou
hide in the bush, while he himself was
to mount the animal and put him to his
top speed to the hiding place and then
the boy was to rush suddenly out and
shout Boo the idea being to prove
how well the colt would stand the scare
Everything was done according to
programme, but the result was altogeth-
er too much of a scare for the colt, who
kicked up his heels and put down Lis
head and the old man was thrown over
it far into the road on his head.
Clearing the dust from his loosened
teeth he made for the boy with the switch
he had cut to drive the colt and with
rage began to dress the astonished young
man down, shouting, what did you do
that for. What did you DO that for.'
But, father" said the CRYING boy,
'.you told me to holler "boor
.'Yes," said the old man, ''but dang
it, it was altogether TOO big a boo for
so small a colt.

Behold that pale, emaciated figure,
with downcast eye, like some criminal
about to meet her fate! See that ner-
vous. distrustful look, as she walks along
with slow and unsteady step. The
pink has left her cheeks and the cherry
her lips. The once sparkling, dancing
eyes are now dull and expressionless.--
The once warm, and dimpled hands are
now thin and cold. Her beauty has fled
What has wrought this wondrous
changer What is that which is lurking
beneath the surface of that once beau
tiful form? Does she realize her terrible
condition. Is she aware of the woeful
her very nature, is subject to a catalogue
of diseases from which man is entirely
exempt. Many of these maladies are
induced by her own carelessness, or
through ignorance OF the laws Of her
own being. Again, many Female Dis
eases, if properly treated, might be
arrested in their course, and thereby
prove Of short duration. They should
not be left to an inexperienced physician
who does not understand their nature,
and is, therefore, Incompetent to treat
them. The Importance cf attending to
Female Diseases in their earliest stages
cannot be too strongly urged. For, if
neglected, they frequently lead to Con-
sumption, Chornic Debility, and often
times to Insanity. In all classes of Fe-
male Diseases, DIR. PIerce's Favorite
Prescription is without a rival. No
medicine has ever surpassed it. In'"The
