Flowers in Mexico.

Mexico is the greatest flower market in the
world. All the year around, the gardens
bring forth brilliant blossoms-the fragile,
beautiful children of this tropic zone. All
historians who write of the Mexicans as
Mexicans, speak oftheir love of flowers as one
of their principal characteristics. Nor is this
trait diminished in the present generation
From the days before the cruel conquest, all
through that merciless time, when the Mexi-
cans bore the heavy yoke under their violent
masters, the Spaniards, they remained faith
full to their love of flowers; the passion is
innate
During even the coolest days that are
known in this mild climate, one may go to
market and find the simple Indians seated on
the sidewalks with their baskets of flowers |
have seen them sitting thus closely together
for whole block offering, at very low prices,
great bundles of roses, heartsease, heliotropes,
violels, geraniums, pinks, and, in short, al
most numberless varieties. For 25 cents, one
may nearly always buy large, elegant.ar-
ranged bouquet, composed of the most ex.
quisite flowers, the price of which, in New
York, would vary according to the season,
from So to So or Sc. In the full flower sea-
son one may often buy for cts. as many
flowers as can be disposed ofin parlor of
ordinary size. Many of the wild flowers are
ofexquisite beauty, rivalling the choicest gar
den plants ; in fact, many OF them are among
our finest greenhouse plants.

Bad Air.

When person has remained for an hour
or more in a crowded and poorly ventilated
room or railroad car, the system is already
contaminated to greater or less extent by
breathing air, vitiated by exhalatons from
the lungs, bodies and clothing of the occu-
pants. The immediate effect of these poisons
is to debiltate, to lower vitality, and to i'm
pair the natural power of the system to re-
sist disease Hence it is that persons who are
attacked by inflammatory diseases, as pneu-
MONA or rheumatism, can generally trace
the beginning of the disease to chill felt ON
coming out ola crowded room into the cold
or damp air, wearing perhaps thin shoes and
insufficient clothing. If these facts were
generally understood and acted upon, thous.
ands of lives might be saved every year.
1t is well-known fact that men who
camp out" sleeping on the ground at all
seasons OF the year, seldom have pneumonia,
ana that rheumatism, with them, comes, as O
rule, only from unwarrantabe imprudences,
There are two facts that should be learned
by every person capable of approaching
them, and they should never be lost sight Of
for moment One is that exhalations from
the lungs-the breath-is deadly poison,
containing the products Of combustion in the
form OF carbonic acid gas, and if person
were compelled to reinhale it unmixed with
the oxygen of the air, it would prove as de-
structive to life as the fumes of charcoal.
This is an enemy that is always present, in
force, in assemblies of people, and only q
constant and free infusion of fresh air pre-
vents it from doing mischief that would be
Immediately apparent.
The other fact is that pure air is the anti
dote to this poison. The oxygen of the ar is
the greatest of all purifiers. Rapid streams
OF water that pass through large cities, re-
ceiving the sewage, become pure again
through the action of the air after running
few miles. Air is the best of all "blood pu-
riiers." Combined with vigorous exercise
to make it effective, it will cure any curshl
case of consumption -HaWs Journa. Of

Law of the ROad.

Judge Bidde, of Philadelphia, recently ex-
pounded the law governing drivers of vehi-
Giles in using the highways. The Judge says
There is no rule of law which requires a
traveller to drive over any particular part off
public highway. He can drive over the mid
die or on either side, no matter in what di-
rection be may be going. What is called the
law of the road is that persons meeting on
the highways each must keep to the right.
This rule is modified in the case of q foot
man or horseman, who cannot compel
teamster with heavy load to turn out of
the beaten track, or even a light wagon with
heavy draught In those cases, if the
horseman or light vehicle can pass with safe
ty on the left Of the heavily-laden team it is
their duty to give way and leave the choice
to the more unwieldy vehicle Travellers
naturally keep as near as they can to the
right side of highway, not because of any
legal obligation SO to do, but because they
are then in position to require any one
meeting them to turn out. They may travel
on the left side if they please, but then, if
they are met by person driving in an oppo-
site direction, they must turn out. The OBJ
legation is not to keep any particular part of
the highway, but simply to turn to the right
when others meet them"

IN PERFECT PEACE.

IN PERFECT PEACE.
Like strains of music soft and low
That break upon u troubled sleep,
I hear the promise old and new
God will His faithful children keep
I'm perfect peace"
From out the thoughtless, wreck-strewn past
From unknown years that silent wait,
Amid earths wild regret, there comes
The promise with its precious freight,
I'm perfect peace"
Above the clash of party strife,
The surge of life's unresting sea,
Through sobs of pain and songs of mirth,
Through hours of toll, it floats to me:
In perfect peace"
It stills the questionngs and doubts,
The nameless fears that throng the soul,
1t speaks of love unchanging, sure,
And ever more its echoes roll:
I'm perfect peace"
I'm perfect peace" o, loving Christ!
When falls deaths twilight gray and cold,
And flowers of earth shall droop and fade,
Keep Thou Thy children as of old,
In perfect peace"
And through the glad eternal years,
Beyond the scorn and blame of men,
The hearts that served Thee here may know
The rest that passeth human ken,
'"rhy perfect peace"

terrain was to Presbyterianism, but the Method
ist had more grace than the Presbyterian, who
seems from his language to be a Turk. We
have not much respect for a man who kicks
his mother or sister, even though she may not
coincide with his views. If a minister wants
to leave a church, let him do it decently.
The door is wide open. But that minister
shows his coarseness, as we'll as makes a great
mistake who, upon q change of views, heaps
abuse upon the denomination that has non
ored him. The Presbyterian Confession of
Faith may be all wrong; but a great many
level-headed and noble Christian men and
women believe it, and, if we mistake not, il
is only a short time ago since brother Man
gasarian himself vowed that, 'for substance
of doctrine" he believed every word of that
Confession which he now discards. Such drift
wood in the ministry is poor timber for any
church

AN aged Southerner, who has been at
Washington since the Inauguration, waiting
to be appointed minister to Spain, has gone
home, now that Rev. Jabez Curry has secured
che position, his railroad fare having been
paid by his friends at the capital. The old
man belonged to one of the 'irst families"
being a descendant of a distinguished South
ern general of the Revolution. He had not
served in the confederate army, however, and
should have learned long ago that this cir
cumstance rendered his application hopeless.
