Hints to Bathers.

For the unfortunates designated as
nervous" cold bathing promises the
best results.
Persons who stake cold'' easily will
find the daily bath of cold water g.
most effectual means of prevention.
Cold bathing is salutary when a Wig
orous habit exists; it is Injurious when
the general strength is too feeble to
admit of reaction under it's influences.
Those who feel weak and depressed
after bath will do well to take a cup
of tea or coffee; rarely will the use Of
more powerful stimulants be indi-
Gated.
Water with g. temperature of fifty
degrees may beconsidered as sufficient
ly cold for bathing; it may be used at
any degree below that point, but it
cannot be borne long.
The cold bath is unsafe in old age, in
great debility, when serious organic
disease exists, and in many of the
acute affections. In kidney disorders
it is especially forbidden.
When a great mental effort is to be
made, deep thought and close reason
INDUCED in, cold bath will stimulate
the faculties, quicken perceptions and
edge understanding.
On leaving the water friction should
be employed with coarse towel until
the skin is heated and Redeemed, and
after dressing rapidly a brisk walk for
short distance should be taken to
quicken circulation and insure COM
plete reaction.
II after the general shock to the sys-
tenn q sense of unusual heat to the
skin is experienced, accompanied by a
perceptible increase of strength and a
pleasurable, invigorating feeling, then
it is evidence that the nerves, blood
vessels and all the organs of the body
ere excited to more healthy and en-
ergetic performance of their functions

1t has come out that at one of the
most select private masked balls given
at the close of the carnival in Paris
one of the most conspicuous guests
was mask habited as familiar" OF
the Spanish inquisition in the Six
tenth century. A well-known actress
at last satisfied the general curiosity
by untying his mask, whenit appeared
that he was M. Delbler, the Paris exc
cutioner. AS might be expected, he
quilted the saloon as soon as his
identity was discovered, but he had
come on q genuine card of invitation,
procured by a lady who, for some
whim, wished to give the company an
unpleasant surprise.

A Toy From Antietam.
From the Philadelphia Times.l

From the Philadelphia Tlmes.]
Gen. Hector Tyndale Post, No. 100,
of this city, has been presented with q
small brass cannon, which is appar-
emily g. toy, but it has historical
interest. It was used at the battle OF
Antietam, September IT, 1852, with
deadly effect. 1t was drawn from
Sharpsburg while the battle was in
progress by q boy 16 years OF age,
who lived in the vicinity, and who,
like old John Burns at Gettysburg q
year later, went into the conflict upon
his own personal responsibility. He
took a position on an elevation, and
with his little cannon faced the enemy
and poured load after load of missiles
from the muzzle of his miniature CAN
non into the ranks of the Confederates.
The young hero fought for hours in
the ranks of the Union army. Among
the hundred thousand men with
whom he fought there was not one
with whom he had any personal &C.
Quaintance.
While thus engaged he was shot, it
is believed, by q rebel sharpshooter.
When found he was lying upon his
face, with his body across the little
gun. After his death the cannon was
kept until recently, when it was sold
for old brass and brought to this city
with other old metals. A comrade OF
the Tyndale Post, who is an extensive
metal broker, learned the history OF
the little piece of artillery, then dirty
and corroded, and presented it to the
society. 1t has been cleaned and
frightened up and looks like new. 1t
is about three feet in length and has a
bore of less than two inches.

POr-POURRI.

The blue lars in the window,
The big bowls in the hall,
Hold that sweet old-time perfume
That we Pot-pourri call.
We cannot tell who made it,
Nor where the flowers did grow.
For those who picked them left us
Full fifty years ago.
Yet, when at scented evening
/ stand beside the bowl,
And watch my roses fading
AS night mists upward roll,
/ seem to see their spirits
Stand silent there below,
Who made Pot pourrt for us
Full fifty years agol
watch them, youths and maidens,
About the garden glide;
/ see them Gull the flowers
There growing side by side;
/ hear their soft love whispers,
/ almost seem to know
The faces dead and buried
Some fifty years agol
I smile to think how fleeting
Are all our Joys, our pain;
How swiftly sunshine passes,
How quickly dries the rain.
For they, too, loved and suffered,
And bore their own death DloW,
Those PRETTY lads and lasses
Dead fifty years ago.
Yet their dead roses whisper
OF sweetness cen in death;
This lovely perfumed odor
Has outlived Loves hot breath;
And sweet can be our evening,
And, if we wish it SO.
Can last cen like Pot-pourr1
