, Extract fron a Paper rtad before the National Imtilale, Waehinglon, D. C, hy Dr. D. Rtad. Intelligent persons are aware that the poi- fionoQS effinvia emanating from gatters, sewers and yard vaults, would soon generate a terrible pestileucB iu any oity or town, but for the constant diffusioD of the poison. But It may not be so generally known that some of these hot-beds of disease can bo easily rendered com¬ paratively harmless and inoffensive. Oor af¬ fected refinement shiinks from the mentioning of a disgusting evil, which from babit we have come to regard as necessary. It is not, how¬ ever, a false delicacy which makes us content to inhale with every breath sucb pentilential exhalations, and yet forbids a discussion of their properties, origin or effects, even witb a view of reform. Shall we not be more truly refined when ono singlo square ol" somo Ameri¬ can city is purified from the stench of night ' soil, or privies, made ten-fold more intolerable by the ignorance of the scavengers wlio infest every neighborhood, administe iug slow poison to us in our sleep, uot unlVeiiuently fiiinng vic¬ tims themselves V
Hany years ago the atmoaphere of Paris had become so polluted as to eicite the most alarm- ing apprehensions as to public liculth. Atten¬ tion was directed to the privies as the ohief nuisance, and vnriou.s reformatory plans have been tried, until the uuited fikill of chemists and of practical men, has made I'aria in this respect a model worthy of imitation. At present complete deodorization and disinfection ara accomplished, «o that neither scavengers nor others need suffer aiinoyauce. Many otber Enropean citiea have reformed iu this respect, and America has no longer an excuse for neglecting tbis much-needed sanitary reform.
In privy vaults tbere is a process of putre" faction constantly going forward, &iid a conse¬ quent incessant escape of poisonous gasses iuto tbe atmosphere. Moreover, the fluid portions of the night-soil percolate tbe earth underly¬ ing all our cities. These matters washed for¬ ward by tbe rains, diffuee the products o' putrefaction everywhere; theu the heat of iummer, by evapcration at the surface, may bring poisonous effiuvia up from the whole area of the city. The water of our wells, as known, are impregnated with these products. Not long since an intelligent citizen requested me to make a chemical examination of the water of a well which was formerly very good, but was now strongly flavored, and by several persous it was thought to have the taste of a chalybeate water. Upon testing, the wator was found to havo imbibed rather freely from the privy products of tho neighborhood ! Such wells'are common.
Not only does public health demand that this grievoua nuisance sbould nt onco be abated, especially as the requisite means nre simple and well known, but agriculture seconds this demand, inasmuch as night-soil is valuable as manure, particularly when treated so as to retain all the nitrogen, most of whieh is liablo to escape in tho ammonia which is generated during tbe process of putrefaction. Indeed it contains all the elements derived from the soil by vegetation, and hence is an excellent fer¬ tilizer.
The reform in Paris, to which allusion has been made, was effected by tho Soci!;te d' Ag¬ riculture nnd tbe Socibte d' Encouragement pour 1' Industrie Nationale, and in the United etates we may expect reform from the exer¬ tions of agriculturists rather than from thosc of sanitary ofiicers.
One general criticism moy be opplied to t&o means commonly recommended for disinfecting and deodorizing privies, sewers, and gutters.^ The methods propoaed do not meot all the chemical conditions; they attempt too much With a single re-agent. In night-soil many elements occur forming various compounds, organic aud inorganic, some acid, somo alka¬ line or basic, some nnited as fixed salts, others becoming gaseous, and tending to escape into the atmosphere. Among tho gaseous products are suljftydric acid, carbonic acid, ammonia, or carbonate of ammonia, together with various exhalations not yet investigated. But the qaantity of some of those is so inconaiderable as to require littlo attention. Now, in order to completely deodorize and disinfect night-soil it is necessary to add such different chemical re-agents as will unite with each of these gases, converting them into constituents of fixed compotmds. But it often happens that a reogent that willfixone gaa will expel another. Lime is itt common use, becauae at first it mostly destroys tbe odor by decomposing tbe flulpbydria acid and forming sulphide of cal¬ cium and wnter. But the sulphide of calcium tbus formed is liable to be decomposed by carbonic acid, which is always present iu the maaa. The lime alao fixes the carbonio aoid, though the former expels ammonia. Moreover, • tho lime may hasten tbe oxydation of tbo ni¬ trogen, forming nitric acid, whicb lalter may •ither fix ammonia or expel carbonio acid. Tho lime alone cannot be an efficient diainfectant. Again, aulphate of lime, (plaster,) eilher calcined or simply pervulent, is in uae. In thia case the sulphuric acid unites with the ammonia of tbe nigbt-soil, and the lime with the carbonic acid. The lime, also, as before, win decompose the sulpbydrio acid, but the -resulting sulphide of calcium is still liable to decomposition. Calcined plaster itself may evolve sulpbydrio acid by the aimple addition of water, owing to tbe presence of aome sul¬ phide of calcium. Tberefore, plaster, though belter than lime, can never be au effectual de¬ odorizer. In the play of chemical afiinilies, wben either lime or plaster ia uaed, some of the sulphur mnst alternately unite witb hydro¬ gen and with calcium until it escopes in sul¬ pbydrio acid at tbo surface. The employment of bleaching salt (so-called chloride of lime) is very objectionable on account of the chlo¬ rine thus evolved, and the consequent impreg¬ nation of the air with a poison often more del- elerious than the eflluvia whicb it ia intended to destroy.
If, instead of lime or its aalta, we employ a I gmall portion of the salt of a heavy metal, as Bulphate of zinc or white vitriol, sulphate of iron or copperas, sulphate of copper or blue Titriol, the salphydric acid is decomposed, aa before, and fixed anlphido of the metal ia form¬ ed.   Thia snlphide ia not decompoaable by any Bubatance preaent.   Here,  tben,  wo have a oomplete remedy for sulpbydrio acid.    Sul¬ phate of iron or copperas may bo tho cheapest i!aU for thia purpose, but it, as well as salts of copper, forms a black sulphide, sometimes ob- jecUonablc oa account of the color.   Tho zinc salts, however, forms a white enlphido, which can never render a city amatty, however freely used.   Of a solution of sulphate zinc it is found necessary to employ only 2 per cent of tho volame of nigbt soil to decompose all theL sulpbydrio acid, and then lime and its sulphate may be added to neutralize tho ammonia and carbonic aoid.  Of aU the disinfectants and de- oderizers hitherto employed, no substance pro¬ dnces more remarkable effects than fresh char¬ coal in pnlvemnlout state.   Its anti-pntresoont effecta were diacovered by Lowitz, 1790 ; but tho discoveiy has been slowly applied.   In 1629 Frigerie proposed to employ charcoal for preierviDg meat and in 18S6 he pnblished an account of a safe, consiating of a doable screen of wire gauze with tho intersperces filled wilh fresh charcoal.   Thia safe was found to pre- aervemcatin the hottest woather  perfecUy sweet for a whole week.   During many yeara charcoal has been (especiaUy in Europe) ex¬ tensively mixed with hnman excrements, for ^    wliioh pnrpoie  it has been fonnd  admira¬ bly adapted, not only by ita deodorizing and diiinfoofing qualities, but also by iU being it¬ aalf a powerful sUmnlsnt to the growth of veg- (tetion.
For the last 20 yoara ohomiati have boen employed in applying their ecienco to tho man¬ nfacture of poudrette, and in investigating tbe causes of inaalubrity oonnected witb tho man¬ agement of night soil. These investigationa, conducted in different countries, have required auch varied experiments that tbe labor may bo regarded as only begun. In the preaent state of our knowledgo we may briefly enumerate tbe ohief emanations from night soil, with the beat disinfectant or corrective known, as folr lows:
1. Snlpbydric acid ; sulphate ot zinc or of iron, (vitriol solution.) 2. Carbonate of am¬ monia; sulphate of lime,^(powderod plaster.) 8. Free carbonic acid; lime, (quiok or alack- eJ.) i. Putrid exhalations, (not' investiga¬ ted ;) charcoal, (better fresh and powdered.)— Only a very small portion of vitriol solution is necessary at ono timo, ond this should bo so sprinkled over tbe mass as to meet the gases rising to tbo surface. Plaster, lime, and char¬ coal moy bo used more froely; yet a small por¬ tion of these, if frequently strewed upon the surface, will be sufEoient. It has been sug¬ gested that tho diainfectant bo aupplied, sa water is, from a reservoir, by simply turning a foucet.
In tbe manufacture of poudrette tbe chief objects nre, first, to preserve all the fertilizing matter of night-soil; and secondly, to expel the exoess of water, amounting in some instan¬ ces to nine-tenlhs of the wholo volume, (ordi¬ nary excrements whon fresh are four-fifths wa¬ ter. ) An excellent metbud of occomplishing theso objects is to mix thoroughly witb the night-t'oil a solution of sulphate of zinc, and leave at rest for a time, when tho watery por¬ tion may be pumped off and allowed to flow iuto a sower or gutter, without forming a nui¬ sance. It may be well to allow a small jet of solution ot aulphate of zinc to mix with the stream as il issues from the pump. Tbe dis- iufected residue in the vault may now be re¬ moved, spread in thin layers on a resin or oth¬ er water-tight floor, and allowed to evaporate to dryness undor an open sbed or by furnace heat. Thc poudrette has been sometimes pres¬ sed in cubical massea, pierced with holea, to | promote desiccation. Thua prepared it re¬ quires no packing for transportation or preaer- vation. A little rain will not do it any barm if the wet surface be immediately dusted witb plaster. Poulet has recommended the employ¬ meut of an emulsion of oils and alkalies iu connection with the zinc salts, in order to ob¬ tain a clearer liquid to pump off.
In Paris, it was found that one man with a horso would mauufacture, in the old way, with plaster nnd coal, 25 tons of poudrette per day, and that the entire coat of manufacture amount¬ ed to only .$1.87 per ton. According to chem¬ ical analysia tbo nitrogen in night-soil is 13 per cent, of dry matter. Now the best Peru¬ vian guano confains only 14 per cent, of nitro¬ gen, whilst the average quality contains but 6 or 7 per cent. Therefore poudrette properly prepared will be as valuable na the best Peru¬ vian guano, and of twice the vnluo ot tbo av¬ eroge. The experience of farmers sustains the result of the analysis.
Tho nitrogen of urine is from 25 to 33 per cent, of solid matter. A manure prepared frora urine and sold under tbe name of urate, is a most powerful fertilizer, equal to four times the weigbt of average guano, or twice tho valuo of tbo best Peruvian.
In estimating guano the nitrogen ia the true standard of value. Estimating night-soil in tho samo manner, and assuming that wo pre¬ serve all tho nitrogen, the oity of N. York and environs would afford manure equal ia value to 61,000 tons of the best Peruvian gu¬ ano, or .$2,550,000 per annum. During tho last seven years according to the report of the Patent Oflico for 1854, tho United States has imported on on average, 46,809 tons of guano annually. Much of this guano ia worthless, being so when first obtained, or having been washed in order to manufacture ammonialsalts for sale. Tho practice of washing is a com¬ mon trick of the trade, and usually a safe one, since farmers never employ a chemist, and washed guano can be bought at a comparative¬ ly low price. But even estimating all tbe im¬ ported guano, as equal to the beat Peruvian worth $50 per ton, it would amount to but $2,293,460, which is less by §260,550 than tho value of tbe nigbt-soil of tho city of Now York as above estimated. Great Britain haa imported on an average during the lost seven years, 138,495 tons of guano per annum, which, at $50 per ton amounts to SO.824.800. The nigbt-soil of London and environs would annually produce nitrogen oorrresponding to 120,000 tons of best Peruvian guano, and would doubtless exceed the amount of nitro¬ gen imported. As long ago as 1834, it waa ea¬ timated that London wasted manure (principal¬ ly night soil in the Thames) to the amount of $2,000,000 per annum. How muoh London or New York now wastes I am not informed, but all will agree that publio health and the interests of agriculture most earnestly domand a thorough sanitory reform in all our oitica and towna.
Inhabitants of Florida.
"Alligators, aamay be inferred from tho nnmber shot in one day at the pond of that namo, are very nnmerons; every mud hole, swamp, pond or river, is infested witb tbem, Tho animal.iotoo well known to roqairo a mi¬ nute deaoription; they vary from two and a balf to ten feet in length. One of medium sizoj say fivo feet, has a mouth ten or twelve inches wide, and sixteen or eighteen long, ahaped like a shovel; its eye when angry is very terrible, and has the most horrid expression of fury I ever witnessed in nny animal; such an one aa no description reminds mo of, unless it be that awful leer whioh beamed from the eyo of tbo Arcb Enemy, at that moment of peculiar ex¬ citement whicb Milton delineates with such masterly power, when he rallies hia dispirited hosts under bis infernal banner and marches them op in glittering array ogainst tbe army of tho living God.
Tbe tail whicb ia nearly equal in length to tbe body, bas a serrated appearance and when enraged he thrashes it with great violence, a aingle blow being sufficient to break both of a man's legs at onco; tbey nro omphibioua, and when on tho ground move sluggishly uponfour legs. The general appearance of the animal is disgusting: although tbey are so abundantand' posesaed of great power, I havo never beard of but two inatancea ofindividuals being attacked by them, and thoy have frequent opportunitiea if ao disposed. I have frequently heen a swim¬ ming wben I knew many were about. Tbe ex¬ tent of their miaohief is confined to now and tben seizing a favorite dog.
As for frogs and bull-paddoeks, whewl they arc witbout begining or snd 1 All sorts and kinds of soil produce them in quantities whicb no man can number. An intelligent traveler not long ainco eatimated tbem at forty bnshels to tho acre. I never measured one, but think hia estimate too low ! Of a summer's day or night, they made such> racket as almost to craze one: this reminds me of a story of Liout. Chubb's ' about frogs.' He said, ' Some years since an invalid came to St. Auguatine, and started for Tallahassee on horaa-back; the man wasn't ono of Ihe Btrongest of nerves, and he had hardly got out of town before be asked hia guide what made such a racket? he told him ' frogs.' ' Frogs 1' aaya the man ' then let ua ride on, and got out of thia vicinity, for tbey will turn my brain.'
' Tis no use to ride. Sir—so all tbe way,' said tbe  fellow.
The man didn't exactly believe that, so on he rode ; by'me by, tbe guide aaid, his eyes be¬ gan to glare, and be stared wildly round for a moment, and then clapping spurs to a higb spirited horse he was on, galloped off at full speed, tbe guide after bim ; bat twa'nt no use, he could'nt catch him; giving up tho cbaso ho jogged along, and about four o'clook, came up, and there was the horae, dead in tbe road, and tbe man aetten on him pounding away with a great alick, spurring, and making all the mo¬ tions of one ridiug for his lifo. Tho noise of thc tarnal frogs had addled bis brains, and he carried him back to St. Augustine, a perfect maniac'
There are two kinds of rattle-snakes, the large, and small or ground rattle, the bito Of both is venomous, and tbat of the largo will produce sudden doath wben it strikes an nrtery —an ordinary flesh wound may be cured by immediato and proper application. Tho usual modo is to bandage tho limb above the wound, and apply a part of the snake's or a chicken's body, to the place, which extracts tho poiaon; sucking the wound ia also resorted to, and when it is to be had an internal and external application of hartshorn is made.
The bite producea the most excruciating pain, I u violsDV inflammation and swelling immedi¬ ately tako place, the fltsh around the bite rots, and unless relief is speedily obtained the pa¬ tient becomes a swollen, blackened, and loath¬ some corpae.
The wound inflicted by tbe moccaain is but littlo less poisonous ; both apecies aro natur¬ ally pacifio and seldom strike except in the month of August, unless trodden upon or irri¬ tated. Is is said that during tbe intense heat of tho above named month, tho action of the poison on thoir systems is so great as to blind them, and they glide throngb the hammocks, without knowing whither, forcing their poi¬ sonous fangs into every thing whicb impedes their progress.
Tho large rattle snake when living is one of the most brilliant reptiles I have ever ssen; its back ia dividod into diamond figures reflecting all tbe hues of the rainbow, intermingled with a bright yellow as rich asthe fineat gilding. When half aoiled, head erect in tho attitude of attention, tail constantly in motion, and rattles buzzing, this snake is certainly a terrible, beau¬ tiful object, and ono starts back from tho viow chilled and appalled.'
A View or Labor.—Manual labor or work is dreaded by somo, and despiaed by others' and very few have a natural lovo for it. Tbe lovo of labor ia acquired by habit and perseverance, in a great measure. The Almighty mado man dependent opon hia own efforts to feed and clolbo himself; he has made hands, and Intel¬ lect to direct his hands, and heaven has shown no partiality in the formation of any class of individuals as an exemption from labor,or pro¬ mised proaperity to spring from habits of Idle¬ ness. Farmers and meobanlcs have frequently foiled for want of self-reapect. Inatead of herding together, aa tbe manner of aomo is. In low drinking houses, to degrade themselves, if they would spend tbeir leisure honse in using means to inform, enlarge and elevate their minds by roading tho productions of good, well-informed authors, meeting together to lec¬ ture each other on the subject of their respec¬ tive callings, they would soon find tbat instead of being degraded by labor, that degradation had sprung from another cause. Ignorance and vicious habits will depreciate a man's solf- respect, and often lessen his self-esteem.
It Is the 77ion that makes his calling reapect¬ able, and not the calling the man—an iofamons character will disgrace any profesaion. Labor has a moral influenco connected with it; there is a less dissimulation and temptation to dis¬ honesty among farmers and other laboring classes than exist among politicians and the learned professions. The man that labora ought to consider himself a man, and use the means to bo a respectable man, and that will elevate his buainess to reapeotabillty; let him qualify himself to fill his station, be it what it may, by golning the requisite knowledge re¬ quired to make him master of his art, whether farmer or mechanic ; then he will have confi¬ dence enough in himself to have a mind ot hia own, nnd not feel degraded at seeing the dis¬ plays of ofiiclons coxcombs tbat make preten¬ sions to superiority.
After all the arguments and examples to tho oontrary, good moral character is an essenUal ingredient in the formation of a man. A rogue, himself being judge, esteems an honeat man more than ono of his own feather. What man whose character for knavery is established con abide long in a place! He ia liko the tron. bled sea, and has to lire by changing his place and namo; once a rogue, always auspocted.— No man tmder the aun, who knowa right from wrong, or has any regard for his own goodi who will not enjoy himBolf better, and wear a moro confortable conscience by working either hands or head tban spending his time in idle dissipation. An idle man, whether rich or poor, ia an exorescnoe deriving its nutriment from the industry of tho working classes of tho community, and merita the curse for his lozi. ness and breaking the fonrth commandment ag
Adam did for hie disobedienoo N. E. Farmer.

TiiB Police or Pakis.—The Police of Paris is snid to bo the most efficient in the world.— It Is Argus^yed and almost ubiquitous. A rogue to succeed in the French capital must bo adroit indeed. Nevertheloas, thero are hun¬ dreds thero, bold, daring, resolute and reck¬ less, who, if they would apply the samo ener¬ gies to any honest pursuit, would not only acquire fame, but fortune. A Paria corres¬ pondent of tho New York Express gives the following Illustration of tho vigilance of tbe Police:
'A few days ago, one hundred and seventy thousand francs were mlaaed by tbe Bank of France. A searoh was made by tbo bonk, witb no satisfactory result. Information of tbe loss was given to the police. Suspicion attached itself to one of the clerks in the bank. He was placed under secret surveil¬ lance. For days ho was watched, unknown *o himself. Still, no proof of his criminality could bo obtained. He was from the province of Picsrdy, and, on New Year's day, left Paris to spend tbat holiday at homo. Ho was fol¬ lowed by tho police. Tho next moming ho went into tbo woods for tho ostensible purpose of hunting. No report of firearms was heard. In tho evening of tbo same day ho returned to Paris. After bis departure tho wood was searched, fresh looking spots wero dug up but nothing was discovered. The ngent of tbo police, who had tho matter in chargo, returned to the city, and presenting bimself before tbe suspected individual, told bim all he bad done for tbo previona fortnight—evon his conversa¬ tions with his relatives were repeated. Tbo visit to tho wood waa mentioned with the rest. The man was astounded, and, completely thrown off bis guard, at last confessed that bo had sto¬ lon the notes, and named the spot in tho wood in queation where ho had buried thom. Tho money has beon recovered, and tho thief is now in prison awaiting his trial.
Thb Obstinacy of Woman.—A tailor baving amassed a fortune by trado, cnt the shop, and removed to tho oountry to livo in dignified leiauro. His wifo waa a bit of a ahrew, and apt, as all wives aro, to find out hor husband's weak points. Ono of theao was a shame of hia former occupation, and she harped upon the jarring atring, nntil the poor wretch was near¬ ly beaide himself. Her touch-word, 'aoissors,' spoiled bis finest bon mots, and embittered hia grandest entertainment; it was flomo lo tow. He stormed and wheedled, the obnoxioaa in¬ strument waa constantly brandished before bia •yes. Thoy were walking one day, on tho bank of a river bounding bis grounds; * You observe,' aaid he, ¦ tho delta formed by the fork of tho river, ita beauty decided me to cloae tho contract."
' Very probable, my dear—it rominda one so muoh of an open poir of scissors.'
One push, and she waa struggling in the water.

THE GASBtTLOTrS TANKEB WDOW
Ifyou havo ovor met in your traveling, road¬ er, witb agarmlona old woman, whoao tongue It was wholly impoasiblo to keep from running all tho while, yon will laugh as wo have laugh¬ ed, at the annexed skotob ofa New England stage coach company. The extract may seem a little long at first, but never mind that; yon will think it too short whon you got throngh withit.
Theday was remarkable fine, our rosd lay tbrough tbe pleaasntost part of the Housatonic —our cattle were sleek and fine looking—tho driver waa civil and dressed well—whilo the coach itself was a miracle of oomfort.
In the midst of this prospective and present enjoyment an elderly lady, with a monstrous band-box, a paper-covered trunk, and a littlo girl, are stowed away in the coach. And hero began the trouble. Before getting in bow¬ ever—
¦ Driver,' said the lady, ' do you know Dea¬ con Hitchcock 7"
' No ma'm,' roplied the driver, < I've only druv on this rood a fortnight.'
' I wonder if neither of thera gentlemen don't know him I' abe said,' putting hor head into tho coach.*
' I don't,' said ono, whom we witl call the wag; 'but I know Deacon Ilotchkias, if that will answer your purpose.'
• Don't eitber of them other gentlemen know him?'
No reply.
• Well, tben, I' don't know whether to go in or not,' said the lady; ' because I must seo Deacon Hitchcock before I go bomo. I am from tho State of New Hampshire, and tfao deacon was a particular friend of my husband —this little giri's father, who bas been dead two long years, and I sbould liko to see him * mazingly.''
' Does he live about here ?' inquired tbe dri¬ ver.
'Well I don't koow for sartain,'said the lady, ' but bo lives somewhere in Connecticnt. Tbia ia tbe first time I was ever so far from home. I feel a little dubersome about riding all alone in a stage with gentlemen tbat I have never saw before in all my life.'
' There is no danger, ma'm said the driver,' 'the gentlemen won't hurt you.'
'Well, perhaps they won't, but it's'very un¬ pleasant for a lady to be ao far from home — I live in tho State of New Hampshire, and this little girl's '
'You hod better get in, ma'm.'sald tbe dri. ver, witb praisworthy moderation.
'Well, I don't know, but I may as well,' she replied; aud after informing us once more that she was from the Stato of Now Hamp¬ shire, and that hcr husband had been dead two years, she got in and took her seat.
' How mucb is it. Sir,' asked the lady.
'Four and sixpence,'said the driver, 'for youraelf and little girl.'
' Well, now, that's a monatrous eight of mon¬ ey for a little girl's passage liko that; her fath¬ er, my husband, has been dead those two long yeara, and I never was ao far from bome in all my life. I livo in the Stato of New Hamp, ahlre. It's very unpleasant for a lady; but I dare say neither of tbese gentlemen would seo me, a lone widow, Imposed on."
'I'll take your tare, if you pieaae,' repeated the driver.
• Ilow much did you say it was—three and elxpencQ ?' asked tbe lady.
'Four and sixpence. If you pieaao, ma'am,' politely answered tbo driver.
' Ohl four and sixpence.' And after a good deal of fumbling and shaking of hor pockets, sho at last produced a half dollar ond a York shilllBg and put them in the driver's hand.
' That's not enongh, ma'am,' flaid tho driver; ' 1 want uinepence more'
' What! ain't we in York State ?' she asked eagerly.
' No ma'am,' replied the drivor, ' it is six shilling, York money.'
'Well,'flaid tho lady, 'I used to bo quite good at reckoning when I was at home In New Hampshire; but since I've got so far from home, I b'lievo I'm beginning to loso -tay mcn- tal.faculties.'
' I'll take that other nioepenco, ifyou please,' said the driver In a voico approacbing a little nearer to impatienee. At last, after making allusion three or four times to her native State and her deceased husband, (happy man) sbe handed the driver Binepenco, and we were once more in motion.
' Do you think it's dangerous on this road V began the lady, as soon as the door was oloaed, 'I'm a very lengthy way from home, in tho Stato of New Hampshiro, and if anything should happen, I don't know what I shoald do. I'm quite unfamiliar witb traveling. I'm a widow lady. My husband, this littlo girl's father, has been dead theae two yeara coming tbia Spring, and I'm going with her to the Springs; she hos got a dreadful bad complaint in her stomach. Are you going to the Springs, Sir?" sho aaked ofan invalid psasonger. Ho shook his head feebly in reply. ' Aro you going. Sir ?' said sbo, addressing the humorist.
'No,' replied he, 'I am not; and if I wero  ' but the contingency was inwardly pro¬ nounced.
' Aro you?' sho asked, turnlog to me. 'No!"
' Ah! I'm vety sorry; I should liko to put myself under the care of some clever gentle¬ man, it is so awful unpleasant for a lady to be so far from bome without a protector. I am from the State of New Hampshire, and thia is the first time I ever went traveling in my life. Do you know anybody in New Hampshire ?'
' No, madam,' answered tbo wag, ' I do not, and I hope you will excuse me for saying that 1 never wish to.'
'Well, now, that's very strange,' continued the old gossip, 'I haven't met a single soul that I knew since I left home. I am acquaint¬ ed with all tbe first peopio in the State. 1 am very well known in Rocky Bottom, Socking- ham coanty, in tho State ot New Hampshire' I know all the first gentlemen In tho place; there's Squire Goodwin, Squire Cuahman, Mr. Timothy Havens,  Mr. Zachary Upham, Dr,
David'	
< Hold on, driver I hold on I' exclaimed the humorist, ' I can't stand this! Stop for mer¬ cy's sake, and let me out I'
Tho driver reined up, and the wag took his
valise in his hand and jumped out—tbo dis.
oomfited victim of a garrulous old woman.

SLEEP.
Observation and scientlfio experiment cou¬ Btantly confirm the faot, that the hrain is nour¬ ished, repaired, during sleep. If then wo have not Bleep enough, tbo brain is not nourished, and like everything else, wben deprived of suf fiolant nourishment, withers and wastea away until the power of Bleep ia loat and tho whole man dwindloa to Bkin and bone, or dies a ma¬ niac!
Tho practical inferences which we wish to Impreaa upon tho reader aro two:
IsL By all means, aleep enough, give all who aro under you aleep enough, by requiring them to go to bed at aome regular hour, and got np the moment of Bpontanooua waking in tho morning. Nover waken up any one, espec¬ ially children, from a sound sleep, unleas there is urgent necessity; it Is cruel to do so; to prove this, wo bave only to notice how fretful aud unhappy a child is, when waked up be¬ foro tbo sap is ont.
2. If the braiu is nourished during Bleep, it must bave most vigor in the moming, hence the morning ia the best time for atudy; for then tho brain haa moat atrengtb, most activi¬ ty, and must work more olearly. It ia 'the nudnigbtlamp' which flooda tho world witb aickly aentimentalitiea, with falae morals, with rickety theology, and with all thoao harum Boamm dreama of hnman elevation, which ab¬ negate Bible tOBChinga.

Soliloqny of a Loafei.
Let's see, where am I» Thia is—coal I'm laying on. How'd I get here? Yes, I mind now. Was coming up street—met a wbeel- barrow—was drunk, oomin' t'other way, tho wheelbarrow fell over me, or I over tho wheel¬ barrow, and ono of us fell into the cellar— don't know whioh now—guess it must ha' been me. I'm a nico young man, yes I am—tight I tore! drunk! WeU, I can't help it—'taint my fault-wonder whose fault 'tis ? Is it Jones' fault? No. Is it my wife's fault? Well, it ain't. Is it tho wheelbarrow's fault? No.— It's whisky's fault. Who is whisky ? Has ho a largo family ? All poor, I reckon. I think I won't own him any more. I'll cut bia ac¬ quaintance. Pve had that notion forabout tan years, and always hate to do it for I fear of hurting his feelings. PH do it now—I think liquor's injurin' me—it'a apoilln' my temper.
Sometimes I get mad, when I'm drank, and abuse Bets and tbe brats; it uaed to bo Lizzie and tho children—that's somo time ago. I'd como home o' evenln's, sbe used to put her arms round my neck and kiss me, and call me ber deor William. When I comes home now, sho takes her pipe out of her month and her hair out ot her eyes, and says soroetbln' like— ' Bill, you drunken brute, shut the door after you ; we're cold enough, bavin" no fire, "tbout lettin" the snow blow in that way." Yes, she'* Bets and I'm Bill, now. I ain't a good bill, nutber; think I'm a counterfeit, won't pass— a tavem without goi'' in and getting drunk.— Don't know what bank I'm on. Last Saturday I was on the river bank-drunk.
I stay ont pretty late; no, sometimea I'm out all night; fact is, I'm out pretty much all ovor—out of frieuda, out of pocket, out at the elbowa and kneea, and always outrageously dirty—so Bets aays; but then she's no judge, for she's never clean herself. I wonder why she doesn't wear good clothes; may bo she hasn't got 'em; whoao fault's that?—'tain't mine—muat be whiaky'a.
Sometimes I'm iu, however ; I'm intoxicated now, and in somebody's coal cellar. There's ono principlo Fve got—I won't get in debt; I never could do It. Thore, one of my coat tails Is gone—got tore off, I expect, wben I fell in here. I'll have to get a new suit soon. A fellow told me, t'other day, that I'd make a good sign for a paper mill. If be wasn't so big, I'd kick bim. I've had this shirt on for nine days, an' I'm afraid it won't come off without tearin.' People ought to respect me more'n tbey do, for I'm in boly orders. I ain'* a dandy, thongh my clothes aro pretty near Qreoselan style. I guess I tore this window shutter in my pants t'other night, when I sat down on tho wax In Ben Rugg's shop; I'll have to get it mended, or I'll oatcb cold. I ain't very stout, as it is. As the boys say, I'm as fat as a match and as healthy as the small pox. My best hat has been standing guard for a window pone that went out t'other morn¬ ing at the Invitation of a brickbat. It'a gettin' cold down here; wonder if I ain't able to climb. It I had a drink I could tbink better. Let's aee; I ain't got three centa; if I waa in a tavern I could sponge one. Whenever any¬ body treats and says ' como fellers,' I alwaya think my uame's ' fellers' and I've got too good manners to refuse. Well, I must leave thia, or they'll arreat me for an attempt at burglary.— I ain't come to that yot. Anyhow it was tho wheelbarrow did the harm—not me.

POPITIAREALLACIES.
It is not true that sugar and candies are of themselves injurious to tbe teelh or the health of tboso who use them; ao far from it, they are lesa lojurloua than nny of tho ordinary forma of food when employ&l in  moderation.
Anyooienliftc dentist will toll you, tbat tho parta of teetb moat liable to decay, are tboso wbich afford lodgment being decomposed by moisture and heat, give out an acid, wbich wiU corrode sleel as well as tc«yi; but puro sugar, and pure candies are wholly dissolved, tbere ia no remnant to be decomposed to yield this destructive acid ; we remember now no item of food whicb is so perfectly disolved in th.6 mouth as sugar and candy. When visiting the sugar plantations of Cuba, tho attention wns conatantly arrested by the apparently wbite and solid teeth of tho negroes who superin¬ tended tho process ot cane grinding; they drank tho cane-julce liko water, tbere was no restraint as to its use, and tho liltle urchlna playing about, would chew tho sugar-yielding cano by tho hour. It is much the same in Louisiana, where tbe ahining faces and broad grims of the blacks are equally indicative of exuberant health and ' splendid teeth.'
Ilow does it happen then thnt there should be ' the prevalent belief that sugar and sugar- candy destroy the teeth and undermine the health ? Perhaps tbe most correct reply ia Tradition, the father of a progeny ot errors in theory and practice ; of errors in doctrine and example, ' too tedioua to mention.'
Ono of the common faults ot the times ia an indisposition to investigate on tbo part of the masses. We take too muoh for granted.— A very oommon answer to a demand for a rea¬ son for a time honored custom, is • Why, J hane heard it all 7ny life. Don't everybody say soV
It would be a strange contradiction in the nature of thinga, if augar and candy in mod¬ eration, should be hurtful to tbe human body in any way, for sugar ia a constituent of every article of food wo can name ; tbere is not a vegetable out of whicb it cannot be made, not a truit in our orchards wbicb does not yield it In large proporllons, and it ia the main conati¬ tueut of that' milk- wbicb Is provided for tbo young of animals and men all over the world- Perbaps the child has never lived whioh did not lovo sweet things beyond all others ; it is an instinct, a passion, not less universal, than the lovo of water. A very little child can be hired to do for a hit ot sugar what notbing else would. The reason of thia is, that without sugar, no child could possibly live, it would freeze to deatb; it is the sugar in Its food which keeps it warm, and warmth ia the firat necessity for a child.
But to use this information intelligently and profitably, it must be remembered that sugar is an artificial product. Is a concentration, and that, if used in much larger proportions than would be found in our ordinnry food, as pro. vided by tho beneficent Falhee of us all, wo will suffer injury. We sbould never forget, that tho Immoderate nse of any thing is de¬ structive to human health and life, if persever¬ ed in. The best general rules to be obaerved are two:
First, Use concentrated sweets at meal times only.
Second, Uae them occasionally, and io mod¬ eration.—IlalVs Journal of Health.
Friotian Hatches.
Among articles of great domand that have become of importanoe, though apparently in- aignificant, in onr own day, there ib nothing moro worthy of notice than tbo friotion or lucifer match. About twenty years ago, chemistry abolished the tinder-box; and tbo burnt rag which made tho tinder went tomake paper. Slowly did the invention aproad. Tbe nao of the match ia now ao eatablisbed that msobines aro invented to prepare the aplinta. In New York, ono match manufactory annually cuta up a large mft of timber for matches.— The English matohea aro generally aquaro, and thuB thirty thouaand splints are cut in a min¬ ute. The American matches are round, and the prooeis of shaping being moro elaborate, four thousand fivo hundrod splints aro out in a minute. Wo will follow a bundle of eighteen hnndred thin splints, each four inches long, through itfl conversion Into throe thouaand aix hundred matches.
Without being separated, each end of tbo bundle ii dipped into sulphur. When dry, the splints, adhering to each other by means f jf the sulphur, must be parted by what is called dusting. A boy, sitting on tbe Soor witb a bundle before him, strikes tbe matches with a sort of mallet on tbe dipped ends till they be¬ come thoroughly loosened. They have now to be plunged into a preparation of phosphorus, or ohiorato ot potash, acoording to tho quality of tbe match. Tho phosphorus produces tho pale, noiseless firo; the chlorate of potoab tho sharp crackling illumination. After thia appli¬ cation ot the more inflamable subslanoe, the are separated, and dried In racks. Thorough¬ ly dried, they are gathered up again into bun¬ dles of tho same quantity, and aro taken to the boys who cut tbem ; for the reader will havo observed that the bundles have been dipped at each oud. There are few things more remarka¬ ble in manufactures than tbe extraordinary rapidity of this cutting process ond that wbich is connected with it. Tbe boy stands before a bench, the bundle on his right hand, a pile of empty boxes on his left. Tho matches are to be cut, and tbe empty boxes filled, by this boy. A bundle is opened; he seizes a portion, knowing by long habit the required number witb Buffiolent exactness; puts them rapidly into a sort of frame, knocks tbe ends evenly together, confines them with a strap wbich he tightens witb his foot, and cuta them In two parts witb a knife on a hinge, whioh he brings down witb a strong leverage. The halves lie projecting over each end of the frame; he grasps the left portion and thrusts it Into a half open box, which slides into an outer case; and be repeats the proceaa with tbe matches on bis right hand. Tbis series ot movements ia performed witb a rapidity almost unexam¬ pled ; for in this way two hundred thousand matches are cut, and two thousand boxes filled in a day, by ono boy.
It ia a law of this manufacture that the de¬ mand ia greater in the anmmer than in the wiuter. The Increased summer demand tor the matches shows tbat the great consumption is among the maases—the laboring population —thoae wbo make up the vast majority ot tbe oontributora to duties of customs and excise.— In tbo houses ot tho wealthy Ihere is always fire ; in the houaea ot the poor, fire in aummer is a needless hourly expense. Then comes tbe match to supply the want—to light the after¬ noon fire to boil the kettle. It is now unneces¬ sary to run to the neighbor tor a light, or, aa a desperate reaource, to work at tho tinder- box. The matches sometimes fail, but tbey cost little, and ao they aro freely uaed, even by the poorest. Tbeir value was aufficiently shown when an Engllah officer in camp a^ Sebastopol recently wrote bomo that no want waa greater tbau that ot tbe ready means of procuring fire and light, and tha, be should hold a box of matches cheap at balf a crown.

Hair Dyes.
One of the European jonrnals relatea the caso of a gentleman who became a maniao in oonsequenee, as aaid, of the free use of a hair dye. We know of no efficient hwr dye which does not owe ita prompt virtues to a solution of * nitrate of fiiWer/ which in its solid state is known by the name of *Lunar Caustic;^ it stains the skin black, by burning it, and will burn into the flesh, if steadily applied. A hot iron will sear the skin, and render it hard, oal- loufl, unfeoliog, and unfit for natural purposes, preventing that free evaporation, which is es¬ sential to the health of the body. If this is done by iuTesting a man with an India Rubber garment, he will die in a few hours.
Hair dyes for whiakera have become very oommon of late years, they have to be repeat¬ ed onoe a montb, their more immediate eSeot ia to impart a dead, blaok color, which at once reveals the hypocrisy, and that it shonid so disturb tho natural fanctions of the skin, by such frequent elppUcatlon, as to lay the foun¬ dation for callosities, cancers, and other affec¬ tions, is at least to be apprehended. The em¬ ployment of such cheateries is altogether in¬ compatible with that feeling of independence and self-respect which characterizes an educa-
What Woman Can Do.—Aa a wife and moth¬ er, woman can make op mar the fortune and happinesa of her huaband and children; and even if abe did nothing else, aurely this would be tt BuflSoient deatiny. By her thrift, pru¬ dence and tact, she oan secure to ber partner and herself a competence in old age, no matter how small their beginnings, or how adverse a fate occasionally be theirs. By her cheerful¬ ness she can restore her husband's spirits, sha¬ ken by the anxieties of business. By her ten¬ der care she can often restore him to health if diaease has seized npon his overtasked pow¬ ers. By her counsela and her love, abe can win him from bad company, if temptation, in an evil hour, has led him astray. By her ex¬ ample, her precepts, and her sex'a insight iuto character, ahe can mould her chil¬ dren, however diverse their dispositions, into good and noble men and women. And by leading, in all things, a true and beautiful Ufo, she can refine, elevate and spiritualize all who come within her reach, so that, with otbera of her sex emulating aud aaaisting ber, she can eventually do more to regenerate tho world than all tbe atatesmen or reformers that ever legislated. She can do aa much alas! porhaps even more, to degrade man, if ahe chooses it. Who can estimate the evil that woman has the power to do ? Aa a wife ahe can ruin her hus¬ band by extravoganoe, folly, or want of affec¬ tion. Sbe can make a devil and outcast of a man, who might otherwise bave become a good member of society. She can bring bicker¬ ings, strife and perpetual discord into what has been a happy home She can change the in¬ nocent babes whora God has entrusted to her charge, into vile men and even viler woman.— She can lower the moral tone of society itself, and thus pollute legiulatton at the spring-head. She can in fine, become an instrument of evil, instead of an angel of good. Instead of mak¬ ing flowers of truth, purity, beanty, and ipir- itaality spring up in her footsteps, till Jhe whole earth smiles with loveliness that is al¬ most celestial, she can transform it to a black and blasted desert, coverod with tbe scorn of all evil passions, and swept by the bitter blaata of everlasting death. This is what woman can do for the wrong as well as for tbe right. Ia her mission a littie one ? Has she no ¦ worthy work,* as haa become theory of late? Man may have a hardier task to perform, a rough er path to travel, but he haa none loftier, or more influential, than woman's.— Wojnan's Advocate,
' We Die Daily.'—The bodies of animala are continually undergoing a series of inviuible changes of substance, of which they are entire¬ ly unconscious. We look at our hand to day, as wo write, and we fancy it ia the same in substance aa it was yeaterday, or last year— as it waa ten years ago. The form of each finger, of each nail, ia the same. Scars made in our infancy are atill here. Nothing is altered or obliterated; and yet it ia not the same hand. It has been renewed over and over again since the days of your youth. The skin, and flesh, and bone, havo been frequently removed and replaced. And so it is, more or leas, with our whole body. The arms and limbs that suatained us in our schoolboy strugglea are long since consigned to the dust, have perhaps, lived over again more than once in plant, or flower, or animal. In from threo to five years entire body is taken out and built in again with new materials. A continued activity prevails among the living agencies to whioh this hidden work is committed. Every day a small part ia carried away; juat as if a ilngle brick were every day taken out of an old wall, or a aingle wheel out of a watch, and iti places supplied by another. The body therefore, requires constant supplies, at every period of ita life, of all those things of which itl several parta ore built up.

His wife very promptly asked :
'Why do you iutend to dlacoutinuc tbe pa¬ per?'
' Because,' said the huaband, * I am eo much away from home on business, and have so lit¬ tle time to read, there seems to be little uae io my taking the paper.'

RuNKiNQ IN Debt.—* If youth kuow the fa¬ tal misery that they are entailing ou themselves the moment they accept a pecuniary credit, to which they are not entitled, how they would start in their career! how pale they would tarn ! How they would tremble and clasp their hands iu agony at the precipice on which they are disporting ! Debt ifl the prolific mother of folly and crime ; it taints the course of life in all its streams. Hence so many unhappy mnr riageg, so many prostituted pens, and venal politicians! It hath a small beginning, tut a giant's growth and strength. Wheu we muke the monster, we make our master, who haunts us at all hours, and shakes his whip of scurp ions forever iu our sight. The slavo hath no overseer so severe. Faustus, wheu he signed the bond with blood, did not securo a doom so terrific'
Little Tiiij-as.—Springs are little tbings, but they aro sources of large streams—a helm is a little thing, but it governs the course of a ahip—a bridle bit ia a little thing, but see its use and power; nails and pegs are little things but they hold thelarge parts of large buildings together; a word, a look, a frown—all are lit¬ tle things, but powerful for good or evil. Think of this, aud mind the little things Pay that little dobt—it's a promise, redeem it—if it'a a ahilling hand it over—you know uot wbat imporlnut event hangs upon it. Keep your word sacredly—keep it to the children, they will mark it sooner than any one else, and tbe effect will probably be as lasting aa life ^Und the little things.
Necessity op Sei.f-Denial.—No one can ever become good or great, without the prac¬ tice of self-denial. When reason resigns the helm to passion, the vessel is in imincut danger of shipwreck or of foundering. If we blindly follow our unchasteued desires, wisbes, and affections, we soon become their vassals, and but little hope remains of our emancipa¬ tion from this the most debasing of all slavery, But blessed are ye who early learn to practice the virtue of self-denial!
