The Release OF Cutting.

The Mexican have released Mr..
Cutting, Notwithstanding all their
threats and buster about enforce
ing their jurisdiction and defyl"g
the United States.
The United States Government
made neither threats nor boasts.
Secretary Bayard merely DEMAND
ed the release of Cutting. and on lis
being refused he repeated the de-
mand, and than at once dispatch
ed an agent to gather the facts
in a correct form, SO that there need
be no delay and no taking OF a fa'so
position. =,
The Mexicans sent additional
troops to the Rio Grande and to the
State Of Chihuahau, and announced
their readiness to meet attack.
Nevertheless, they have shown that
they regard discretion as the better
part of valor, and have backed ont
of the controversy,
The release of their prisoner is
equivalent to the abandonment Of
their cause. They knew that the
United States would enforce its de-
mapd, and they preferred to take
the safest course while there was
plenty Of time to take it with some
]annearance Of dignity.
Their government has not thus
far assumed any responsibility for
the infamous assassination of
Rasures at Pledras Negras, aud
probably the only parties whom We
shall have to punish for that awful
murder are the Texas officials who
illegally turned Rasures over to the
Mexican butcher called Mondra'
gon.
Consequently the action Of the
authorities Of the State Of chihuahua
in releasing Cutting takes the acute
ness out of the diplomatic situation,
and the remainder Of the dispute ca.
he settled at leisure through the or
binary diplomatic methods.
The whole course Of this irritat'
ing affair rejects has highest credi,
on our State Department which has
not made the mistake Of moving toe
rapidly, but Las quietly made his
demand and has then quietly avail
ted the reply allowing a rcasona

The State Department has avoid

Of straightforward representation

HnwLnne to sleen.

The latest authority on this vexed ques-
ton. DIR. Mains. says that the proper
amount of sleep to be taken by man is
eight houis. So far as regards city life the
estimate is probably correct. Proverbial
wisdom does not apply TO modern condi-
tons of social existence. Five hours for
a man, seven for woman and nine for a
pig" SAYS one proverb; and second,
quoted by Mr.. Hazlitt in his English
Proverbs" declares that Nature requires
five; custom gives seven; laziness takes
nine and wickedness eleven"
These conclusions were, however. drawn
from observation of country life. Physical
fatigue is more easily overcome than intel
lectual. Which of us, when travelling in
the country or abroad. or in any way sep
arated from the ordinary processes of
thought and anxiety, has not found that he
could, without difficulty, do with couple
of hours less sleep than he was in the habit
oftaking2 Men, however, who follow any
intellectual pursuit are exceptionally fortu-
nate if the processes of restoration occupy
less than seven hours. More frequently
they extend to eight or nine hours.
Kant, see it stated, took never less than
seven hours Goethe owned to requiring
nine. Soldiers and sailors. on the other
hand, like laborers, do with much less
quantity. / am afraid TO say how few
hours the Duke of Wellington regarded as
essential. A schoolmaster under whom |
one time studied, Woodworking man at
the acquisition of languages, proclaimed
loudly that he never took more than FIVE
hours sleep. The hour at which he rose in
the morning gave some color to this asser-
ton. Only in after life did discover that
a two hours post-p randial siesta was not
included in that allowance.-Th Gentle

give vent quite loudly to the thoughts cur
rent in his mind during divine service.

heart On another occasion. as we have
heard, he said, Why the devil shouldn't

Duke objected to the prayer for rain on ac-
count of the wind: q No use praying for

About Bathing.

There are thousands of pores to each
square inch OF skin of The higher animals.
The Office of these pores is TO serve as out
lets for the dead, offensive matter secreted
by the glands of which they are the mouths.
So much has been written about the otien-
sive matter thrown off by the lungs and the
contamination of the air thereby, that peo-
pie are usually well informed as to the ne
cessity for ventilation; yet the skin throws
off, naturally, greater amount of impu-
rity than the lungs throw off. The skin
and lungs throw off impurities in the rela-
ton of IL to- Z. But if the pores be closed
these impurities cannot be thrown off by
the skin.
Whenever there is any check on this work
of the skin, greater work is thrown on the
lungs and kidneys /; and this soon over
taxes them; they are unable to accomplish
all required of them, the blood becomes
poisoned and disease results. This has been
demonstrated by DIR. Fourcault, who ex-
perimented in the suppression of the per-
spiration of animals. Just as the perspira-
ton was interfered with were the evil ef-
fects manifested. The excretory action of
the skin was entirely stopped by varnish
ing the animals and this invariably pro-
duced speedy death. Any suppression of
this action of the skin must produce a
body, since the blood can be kept pure only
when the skin performs its functions prop
erly. 1t has been well said that the gre;
secret of preserving health is maintaining
a healthy action of the organs that carry
off the wastes of the system.
The matter exuded from the glands. of
which the pores are the outlets, is of d
sticky nature, and not only has it a ten
dency to adhere TO the edges of the pores
and close them, but it also holds the dust
that falls upon it. In The summer The
pc es are closed most rapidly. because there
is the most dust in the atmosphere. The
filth that clogs the pores can be removed
most easily by the use of soap and water,
or bathing Hence bathing often enough
to keep the pores open IS essential and it
should be most frequent at this season. A
house in the city is not considered COM
plete without O bathroom; yet very few
farm houses have such a room, although
farmers should battle oftener, perhaps, than
any other person.
The absence of bathrooms in our houses
shows our indifference to one of the most
important methods of maintaining our
health. The cost of bathroom is but lit
tie, and every house should have one. But
its lack is no excuse for not bathing. We
can at least have tub. And while we
know that many of our readers Will be in
creduious when we say it, yet we know
that the souuder sleep and greater bodily
vgor attained through bathing makes it
profitable tent fold from labor standpoint
alone, not considering the gain in comfort
and health. We know this because we
speak from our own experience on the farm.

the uarrow-Gauge in England, and was
naturally followed in this country TO
very great extent. Some of our roads have
a gauge of feet 81 inches; others feet
81 inches and still others 4 feet 8 inches.
In England they have 6-foot bread :
gauge, and at one time, for a very little
while, tried 7-foot gauge. The Erie
Road, built by English capital, was at first
a 6-fo i gauge, but in 1876 the changing OF
it to feet 81 inches was begun, and now It
is all of that gauge. The Pennsylvania
Railroad Company uses gauge OF feet
8 inches. because that is a compromise
gauge between the former gauge of feet
81 inches on the Eastern lines and feet
10 inches on its roads west of Pittsburg. 1t
would be well if the feet 81 inches gauge
could be widened little. to enable greater
width of the fire boxes of locomotives, and
consequently more powerful engines, such
as 1t would be desirable to employ. Men

WHY HUGO SLIGHrED THE CHEESE

Jeanne Hugo, the granddaughter and the
idol of the poet, having manifested a strong
objection to learning the alphabet, her
mother, to sharpen her energies, told her
one day that until she bad learned the first
twelve letters she would have no dessert.
The first thing the child did was TO pour
out her troubles to grandpapa. ever ready
to listen, but on this occasion pewerless 10

ton of his little darling, ne proposed TO her
that they should suffer togeIher-he would
touch no dessert as long as she had to alb
STAIN Jeanne approved the arrangement.
For many days Victor Hugo persistently
refused dessert, alleging various reasons for
not partaking of it. But one evening,
Jeanne having gone to bed before dinner, a
certain kind of cheese, of which he was
particularly fond. was placed upon the
table. The savory odor assailed his nos
trils, and Hugo had almost broken his en-
gagement, when he suddenly remembered
the solemn promise made to the child, and
checked himself much TO the amazement
of his daughter-in-iaw. Jeanne's mother.
That lady suspected something mysterious.
appealed TO him to tell her the meaning of
his strange behavior. Seeing there was no
help for it, Victor Hugo very meekly cast
down his eyes and made clean breast of
