Chest DEVELOPMENT.

It is stated that during the last twen-
ty-fve years not single singer has died
of consumption in st. Petersburg, al
though this disease has outstripped all
others, and now hold the first place
among the causes of death in the Russian
capital. From this and other facts DR..
Vasilieff draws an inference In favor of
the exercise of singing as a preventive
measure against consumption. There
would seem to be room for question as
to the relation of cause and effect It
may either happen that singers are not
consumptipe- because they can use their
chest and throat freely, or that consump-
tive persons are not singers because the
weakness which precedes disease inca
pacitates the chest and throat for exer-
ton. Both of these hypotheses are true
up to certain point, but neither holds
good in all cases. A very little observa-
ton will suffice to show that good sing
ing voice may co-exist with q weak or
diseased chest, whereas the perfectly
healthy may be unable to sing. 1t was,
some forty years ago, common prac-
tice to give consumptive patients q speci-
ally arranged tube to breathe through,
with the view of exercising the chest.
We venture to hope the experiment will
not be repeated. Chest development
can only be accomplished in manner
consistent with health during the grow
ing stage of childhood, and then the
most natural and convenient methods of
exercise are the best. Later on in life
great mischief may be done by unduly
straining the muscles of the thorax and
those of the throat, beside the peril of
injuring the smaller tubes and air vesi-
cles of the lungs by violent exertion, for
which the organs of respiration and
voice are not adapted because they have
not been early trained.

GENERAL B. +. Cheatham's long
expected paper on Hoods Campaign
in Tennessee, will be read by him be.
fore the Southern Historical Society
in the Masonic Temple at Louisville
tomorrow night. Ho has lately gone
over the grounds of some Of the battles
fought, for the purpose of refreshing
his memory, aud has consulted with
Ex-Governor Porter, who was on his
staff, and other participants. There
is no doubt that he will give
an interesting version of that i'll -fated
campaign, and of some events which
have been in controversy. 1t will be
a valuable contribution to history,
carefully prepared by man who led
one Of the finest divisions in the army
Of Tennessee, and was in position to
see and know what was going on. The
Spring Hill affair in November, 1864,
will ofcoursc be given special attention
1t has been alleged that the Confed-
crates lost splendid opportunity
there. General Cheatham is in the
full vigor Of body and mind and can
throw as much light on the campaign
in question as any man living.

81" THE GOVERNOR OF TEN.
NRR0ER.

Governor Hawkins was at Atlanta
last week and made q little speech,
from which the following extract is
taken:
Ladies and gentlemen and Mr..
President: In the name Of Tennessee
l thank you for the kind aud cordial
welcome which you have given to us,
her citizens. We are not strangers,
and | am happy to meet with you on
this occasion. | am proud to greet
you as my brethren and my fellow
citizens. As has been intimated, the
fortunes and destinies Of Tennessee
and Georgia have been very nearly
and closely allied. We have the same
interest and the same destiny.
Whether for veal or woe, whether we
go down or whether we ascend, VIC
journey together. And in behalf Of
the people Of Tennessee, and we who
are here to-day, Iwould say that we
are all in accord, heart and soul with
the people Of Georgia. We recognize
her as our beloved sister State, and |
may be permitted to remark Just here,
rather | may be permitted to repeat
the words Of one who said: II feel
that it ID good to be here" | feel
proud Of the evidences Of your pros
perity, Of your progress, and Of your
future destiny. | am indeed happy
and glad that l camo here. Mr.. Pres.
ident permit me here to say that |
found with deep regret my inability to
be here on Governors Day. | would
most happily have como could l have
done so. But as we have learned,
mistakes and accidents will occur. /
got it into my head that it was the
9th of November, and when | learned
the truth, my arrangements we're such
that could not attend. But l re
solved that | would come as soon as |
could, ,.and consequently | am here. |
will say to you, however, that | came
to see and learn, instead of teing seen
and undertaking to teach. Therefore
you will pardon me when | tell you
that l am wholly unprepared for this
task, and | can only make a few sug.
gestions. l can only hope that they
may be practical.
In this short space he used the per.
sonal pronoun Il" over twenty-five
times. The Governors style is quite
ornate, and he never forgets himself as
he goes along. The Georgians and the
visiting Northerners must have been
wonderstruck at this blast of eIoquence
from the illustrious successor OF Ten
nessee'S many great Governors.
