Danger in Travelling.

The risk of sudden death, says the
journal of Chemistry, is very trifing
compared with the inevitable injury
sustained by every individual who has
to make long journey by rail. The
traveller really takes his life in his hand
whenever he sets out. The danger is
less from accident than design, less
from misplaced switches than from mis-
placed ventilators, less from bad road
beds than from bad air. We are not
now speaking of the barbaric nuisance
of having to smell, breathe and bathe
in the smoke, SCOT and cinders pouring
in from the engine, which, until some
other method is found to obviate the
difficulty, ought to be in the rear of the
train instead of the front. Of all con-
ductors, brakemen, porters and passen-
gers, probably not one in thousand
understands the vital Importance of
pure air, nor indeed do they know what
pure air is. To the conductors mind,
as to that of the majority of his passen-
gers, the comfort of the car depends
upon the temperature-i is q matter of
warmth or cold entirely. A warm car,
or more commonly q hot car, is the one
desideratum. albeit the warmth is the
product of animal heat from fifty bodies,
many of them not very clean, and OF
exhalations from fifty pair of lungs,
with little chance for the escape of vi
tiated air or the ingress of pure air-a
condition of things tending to produce
a state of ssblue blood' not contem-
plated by the haut ton. When the life
current comes up to the lungs to be
changed from blue to red, to throw off
there the carbonic acid and take in
oxygen-and the whole volume of
blood makes this circuit once in every
half minute, or over 100 times an hour
if there is a lack of sufficient ventila-
ton in the car or sitting room or sleep
ing room, the blood cannot undergo
this vital transformation. It goes back
to the heart, and from thence is pumped
through the arteries from crown to
sole. throughout the complicated mesh
work of the capillaries, in state en-
tirely untitled to perform its functions
of supplying oxygen to all parts of the
body, of carrying off the waste parti-
cles resulting from the IS never-ceasing
DEATH of the atoms composing the
body, and of replacing these with fresh,
living atoms, or, as It is usually put,
repairing the waste.'

The medical journals have of late
been citing cases of unusually slow
pulse. An old gentleman of ninety-six
had pulse Of only thirty-six per min
ute-a woman aged eighty-three apulse
of twenty-five. A gentleman of thirty

per minute. Rowell, the pedestrian,

pose TO plead the baby act. | am not

with over 225, 900 as brave and gallant
an army of political fighters as ever
existed. God knows that the masses
Of the democratic party in Indiana
did their duty yesterday. They stood
up nobly at the polls, aad worked day
in and day out, as they have been
doing for the last three months. The
odds they bad to contend against were
fearful. No man living outside of the
state has the least conception Of the
powerful influences brought TO bear
against them. They were poor, and
their party was poor. They fought for
the floating vote, many of them even
going down in their own poor, hungry
pockets for money to control this poor,
degraded element. They might as
well attempted to stop the fall at Nj.
agaro, Where they placed one dollar
the republicans placed Eve; where
they placed five the republicans
placed twenty. FIVE. 1t was a neat
human auction sale of the floating
vote of Indiana. The democrats could
not vote against the United States
government. The vote was
knocked down to the highest
bidder, and the government was the
highest bidder, do not believe that
a true democrat in the state sold his
vote Yesterday. The vote shows that
they sustained their honor. The re-
publican importations into the state
wore much larger than estimated.
These importations, with the capture
ofthe floating vote did the work.
Then, again, the greenbackers con-
tributed TO democratic defeat. The
g~reenback party, or the national party
has been a curse to the democratic
party for years 1t has been the harlot
that the democrats have smiled upon
to their cost. Nominate Landers
