"I shan't go any farther West, I think, at length observed the excited John Bull, y , ; "I should not advise any one to go," said Case, quietly ; "my brother once lived there but had to leave, although his business was the best in the country."

"Well, one day my brother bought : an allfired fine black walnut log, four feet three at the butt, and not a knot in it He was determined to keep that log anyhow, and hired three Scotch men to watch it all night Well, they took a small demijohn of whisky with them, ; snaked the log up to the side of the hill above the mill, built a fire, and then V sat- down to play ; cards, just to keep awake you see.

The . greatest . danger to the Administration party, during the next four years, will be found in its unprecedented predominance over all political opposition. Having nothing in Congress that can successfully prevent the pas sage of any arbitaTy measure it may see fit to inaugurate, it will soon tire of a warfare that meets no opposition sufficiently power ful to practically accomplish any thing, and thus will be led, like ther fabled serpent,. 'tb 'fasten -its-fangs of death f into its ;own vi tals. ' So long ii Alexander had nations to conquer he" was brave and valiant, but when he "had vanquished his last foe and met no bannered armies to impede his progress, he'. soon-lost the power to govern himself and died victim to; his own. excesses. Nothing is more dangerous to the existence of a political party than too great an ascendancy of political power; nothing is more dangerous to republican institu tions, as all history proves, than the preponderance, to a great degree, of political, power in the ranks of a party organization. Parties thus situated fall with the . weight of self-bred corrup tion, and only that .character of public sentiment latent in all government, above and beyond the influence and designs of evil men, can preserve the . unity of civil institutions in such an emergency. .We do not affirm that the success of the Radical party, in the election Tuesday, November 5th, will be the means of the destruction of the Union, but we do affirm as our belief that the unparalleled extent of the victory it has gained will be the death-knell of its distinctive Exchange. Winter Clothing. In his experiments to deter mine the heat-conducting power of linen, cotton, .wool, and silk, Sir Humphrey. Davy found not only that these ; materials 'con ducted heat in the, order, given above,' linen , being the best, but also that the tightness or, loose ness of , weaving ' possessed an important influence. . It is there fore evident in the selection of winter clothing, , and especially that to be worn -next to the skin, the materials of , least con ducting power, as wool and silk, should be chosen, and the fabrics should be loosely woven.; As regards the external gar ments the same rules apply with equal force, but in this case care should be taken to remove, over coats, and shawls when in a warm , room, especially should this precaution: be observed in the instance of the furs worn by ladies. The habit of wearing these articles for hours in suc cession while shopping and visit ing, often so weakens the power of resistance in the wearers that they become the ready victims of inflammations of the throat and lungs. To such an extent does this occur in New . York that many of. the most skillful physicians advise their patients to discontinue the use of furs, and the advice is often followed with, the . moBt satisfactory . re sults. ' ' '. ' .,' ..'..,.
