Respiratory Control For Vocal Pur-
poses, NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.. By
John Howard. Edgar ). Werner, Pub
Usher, Albany, n. Y. Flexible covers,
60 cents.
Respiratory Control" is written in a
style SO clear and familiar, unlike the
usual writings on physiological subjects,
that the average reader can hardly fail
to under stand IS he reads. To make
every statement absolutely clear and
plain, the ordinary anatomical names
OF the vocal aud respiratory parts nave
been largely omitted; familiar, con-
versational names have been used, aud
their workings have been compared to
familiar objects, such - sacks, baskets,
hoops, etc.
Mr.. Towards reading, practice and
experiments have led HIM to strongly
advocate cidUicUidr breathing, or =
breath taking which raises the chest
and its surrounding collar-bones, in
opposition to the new commonly ad-
vised out bearing Of the abdomen. HIS
experiments have also led him to dis
cover that the diaphragm in not only
an inspiratory, but also an exploratory
agent direct and powerful, an indis-
pensable agent 70 be put under volun-
tary control.
The reader is given several personal
experiments by which to apply the
rules given, and practically test the
value of the arguments. Mr.. Howards

In these things Postmaster Smith approached
him In the summer of 1874, and assured him
that II he would come out frankly and openly
in support OF James K Po,k, then the demo-
cratic candidate for President, and as frankly
and openly denounce Henry Clay, then the
whig candidate for President, as unworthy OF
his support, because of his immoral character,
he (Smith) would resign his Office rs postmas-
ter, and recommend him (Kinsman) for the
position, In the event OF Polk 8 election. Well,
the proper letter was written and sent to the
democratic papers. 1t went the rounds OF
the entire democratic press throughout the
country. the letter being prefaced by lauda-
tory notice OF Mr.. Kinsmsn as a distinguished
and devoted minister Of the gospel, who was
30 shocked by the nomination of Mr.. Clay,
that as minister Of the gospel he could not in
conscience support him, lifelong whig as he
was, but should devote his energies to the sup
port Of Mr.. Polk. In due course of time, Mr..
Polk was officially declared elected, and soon
after his Inauguration, Kinsman applied to
Smith for the fulfillment Of his promise. AZ
ter weeks delay and hesitation, Smith told
Kinsman that he still wished to resign in his
favor, but that his democratic friends were not
willing that he should give up the Office, that
IL he did, he would be likely to lose both theii
friendship and trade. This he could not well
afford to do and just here the good, simple
minded Kinsman sympathized with him. Smith
was very anxious to give him the office. but
not being able to do so without serious injury
to his business, he would crafty his FRIEND

more remunerative to the receiver. He woulc

Kinsman did him the more than unselisl
honor Of signing the bond. Was ever greed o
honor and office more strikingy manifested
or more easily or simply satisfed?"
