From ne Free Religious ERdsr,
As the infant sinks to rest,
Nestled OIL its mothers breast,
Let me on thy bosom lie.
Loved and only Deity
Let me there refuge f,nd
From the motions OF the mind;
From the strites Of men and brothers;
From life all borne for others,
From night virils dark and lonely,
Shared with doubling demons onl,
From the flames OF pasion's nre,
From the Cravings OF desire;
From the tortureS OF DESPAIR:
From the black companion, care:
From the slumber coucRed with sorrow.
From the waking on the morrow
What TO me are pathways golden
In sope heaven OF legends oldrn,
Harms and crowns, AMI garish show
Modelled On the lite below
Lite. still life. however varied;

Born of fanrios weird and eldsh;
Nursing aspirations selfish;

For destiny su2ernnl'

In NiTyana, perfect peace.

Causes of Sunstroke.

EVERY year, even in our temperate
climate, persons die from sunstroke
while about their work, or when walking
the street. The seat of the disorder Is
in q small oblong organ-the meduila Oh.
longata-just within the skull and next
to the spinal column below. From this
organ proceed the pneumogastric nerves
the eighth pair-on which, among
other things, depends our power to
breathe. On other branches of the same
nerve depend the power to swallow, the
action of the stomach, and to large ex-
tent, the action of the heart, though this
last organ is so far self acting that it can
keep on beating not only after death,
but after being taken from the body.
From the medulla comes also the power
of the blood vessels to dilate and con-
tract, and of the skin to perspire. Now
the heat of the sun falling upon the back
of the head and neck so affects the me-
dulla, that the nervous supply to the
lungs and other organs is cut off or, as
il more generally believed, SO changes
the character of the blood that the latter
does not furnish nerve-force to the pneu-
mogastric nerves, or rather to the me-
dulla, from which they draw it. The
consequence is that the lungs suspend
all action, and the person dies, often in
a moment, precisely as one dies when
the same nerve is severed by the dislo-
cation of the upper portion of the neck
in hanging. The fatal effect of the heat
is fastened by its great increase from
the arrest of Precipitation. In other
cases, the brain Is put into state of
apoplexy, from which the person may
often be saved by drenching his body
with cold water, and applying ice to his
head. Sometimes the heat in the shade
or in a close room may cause q stroke.
But generally it comes from exposing the
back part of the head and neck to the
suns rays. In hot weather a cape of
white cotton falling from the hat behind
is protection. Those who use ardent
spirits are more liable to attacks of this
kind than are other persons, and are
mucn less likely to recover from the
apoplectic form of it.-Youth's C0npan-
ton.

COL. ]. M. HEATING.

The only objects of the state con-
vention, which meets in Nashville on
the tenth day of June next, are the
appointment of delegates to the ma
tional convention and the selection Of
presidential electors. Both of these
Offices are purely honorary and more
burdensome than remunerative. 1t is
highly probable, therefore, that the
convention will be slimly attended,
and on this account it is important
that the press of the state should in
dictate in advance such men as would
be fitting and acceptable for these
positions. Acting on this principal,
we take pleasure in nominating Col.
j. NJ. Heating, of the Memphis Ap.
peal, as a delegate to the Cincinnati
convention. Colonel Heating has
served the party thirty years without
any of its honors or emoluments, and
his fidelity and labors are entitled to
some recognition. tesides this, Col
onel Heating is a politician of con-
summate ability and in every way
qualified for the place. lie is thor
oughly representative of the demo-
cratic ideas of this district, and we
hope his name will be considered and
accepted by the Nashville convention.
-SOmerville Falcon, 18th.
We heartily second the nomination
and endorse all that the Falcon says
above. Colonel Keating's name has
already been spoken of by many of the
democrats of the district, and we arc
glad to see that he has the support Of
such an influential paper as the Fal-
con. He is editor of the leading
democratic paper in this part of the
country, is a brilliant writer, fluent
speaker, is we'll known from Maine to
Texas, and would represent Tennessee
in the national convention with as
high credit to himself and state as
any man from the south.
