BTA Republic (remark s eotempornry)

of ten year would utterly despise. - It was
inject of general remark among traveller
lit Frnne during the Urn of the late Repub-
lovilint Frenchmen had suddenly become
gravel but sine Ih ds-potlim of Louis
Napoleon ha succeeded, thay have returned
with xest to all their ancient frivolities.
They hnv resigned all the right of meh to

letting them plsy at soldiers, snon preiartng

Th medium between the two, which Niclio-
as could not comprehend a Cunatitutionnl
Monarchy, of which England is almost the
only succcnafnl experiment Is rather a Iran
sition form of government than an establish
ed one. Sine the day when th lust de
potic king uf England died on th ncufluld,
the ruler hnv been steadily increasing in
numbers. First th aristocracy, then Ih
commercial classes, then th men of letter
cum in, and finally the vast body of th in
telligent people must follow. A compari
son of the ieeche or Edmund Burke, who
mourned fifty year since the decline of chiv
alry, and designated the people a swinish
multitude, with th addresses of the great
men of to day, who recognize progress snd
appeal to tha intelligence of the mass, will
show the apraiid of republican institutions.

ment, Th tongue of the Northern Demo
crat ar loosened, ant they are permitted to
tell tha truth.' Tha Southern Democrats
land aghast at tha altre freesoillsm of th
Northern Demoeratie leaders, who.during the
canvass, were held up to tha Sooth aa pat
terns of sound pro-slavery nationality. ,
W mentioned yesterday th domestic
rawl among th Northern and , Southern
Democrat In th Hoas of Representstivcs,
in which they openly repadlsted each other.
The scene in th Sena Is ba been quite as
rich and Instructive. Senator Bigler, lb firm,
and fust friend of Mr. Betnma, tha avowed
month-piece of the ow ministration, was
st last forced to speaka)! to the intVn hor
te arid chagrin rfP tt PatrlKera 4appertr
of Buchanan. In Uit course of a Speech on
this sjl.absorbing slavery question, Mr. Hal
exhibited a Inrga handbill, cnlllng Demo
eratie meeting in Pennsylvania, In favor' of
Buchanan and Breckenridge and free Annans,
and announcing ex-Governor William Bigler
one of the speakers art th occasion. Gov.
Bigler denied that be Wa present at . th
meeting, and Mr. Hale replied that then the
Democracy were guilty of a double fraud, for
they not only announced themselves in favor
of free Kansas, but cheated the people by a
false assurance thai Mr. Bigler wa to be one
of Ih advocate of that doctrine. Thi
brought out the ex-Governor, and he ac
knowledged that he wa in favor of free
Kansas in the broadest sense, and that the
Democrats were in favor of free Kansas.
This annunciation caused dire consternation
among his Southern Democratic brethren.
Their secret waa exposed. The aecret which
they hud so long concealed by fraud and
stratagems and falsehoods is a secret no
longer, and the people of th South may now
know how they have been humbugged and
deceived in regard to tho (ounifneM of the
Northern Democracy, "the only party in the
North upon w hich the South can rely for
safety to it peculiar institutions."
Even Pougln, th Aj.ix Telamon of De
mocracy, the Immaculate great little man, who
wa (aid to be sacrificing himself for th
benefit of th South, and in whom the South
waacallrd upon, by all th Democratic organ
and stump-speakers, to place the most implicit
confidence, ha taken off the mask he was
compelled to wear during the campsign.
During a recent visit to Ontario county, New
York, h made a epseoh. in which ha boldlv
avowed himself In faveV of free KartkOS, and
moreover, In apeaking of the true character
of the Kansas Nebraska bill, he declared that
the effect and consequently the object of the
bill wa to make Kansas free territory. - He
said that, In the exercise of the self-govern
ment contained in the Kansas bill, the people
would not legislate slavery into a territory.
"Instead of so doing, six of the original thir
teen colonies, had actually emancipated their
slave without th least coercion Irom tha
Government ol the United Slates; and the
same result would follow, as h thought, in
other slave-holding States, if the citizens of
the nnn-slaveholding States would only giv
them the privilege of making their own law
in their own way; and the Territories, In
particular, where slavery has not yet been
introduced, were in no danger of admitting
the institution, a it wa agiimt the general
conscience and prejudice of the people of th
country, both North and South.'
Upon the enme occasion, ex-Senator
Shields, a paragon of National Democracy,
declared that "he was himself opposed to the
extension of slavery; he wa a thorough anti-
slavery man; and were he an Inhabitant of
Kansas, he should 0ipoBe the introduction of
the syitcm into that territory."
Out of their own mouth ar th Democra
cy thu condemned. When Thomas Hart
Benton, and Hum'bal Hamlin, and scores of
other Northern Democrat openly declared
themselves in favor of freesoilisin,lli South
ern Democrat asserted that they were not
sound Democrats, and that tha Northern De
mocracy should not be judged by their
opinions. But Bigler and Cass and Shields
snd Douglss were endorsed aa National De
mocrats by the Southern Democracy during
the recent canvas. They were pointed to aa
pntlerna of that Northern Democracy upon
whom the South might confidently rely. . It
wa declared that tha Northern Democracy
occupied the nm poaitlon in regard to the
Knnui issue a that held by th Southern
Democracy. Now th fraud i exposed. The
nationality of th Democratic party wa
mere bubble. The people were fascinated
wilh Ui splendor and brilliancy of tha pri
matie color reflected from it surface. The
bubble has burst,and the boaated nationality
ha vanished into thin sir. Thousand and
ten of thousand of citizen of th Southern
State wer deceived by the declaration of
th organ and speaker of the Democratic
party that th Democracy North and South
wss the same. Th Northern Democracy I
now exhibited in it true colpra, and such I
the disgust that it ultra freesoillsm hsa ex
cited In Southern men, that, a few daya ago,
a Southern Democrat declared, oil the floor
of the House of Representatives, that, "South
rner nd Democrat a he was, ha would
lather trust hi negro la tha band of J. R,
Giddlngd than ia tba keeping of oa of thsss
boga Northern Democrats." Similar feeling
of dissBllsfuelion snd disgust for Ih treache
ry and doublf -dealing , of ,lba . Democratic
party will prevail throughout tb whole South
a soon aa the people find out th cheat that
has bean practised apoa tbsra. ' ''

That tyrant only sent them to heaven by a

made essential to their vigorous growth, are

It is really surprising to see how oAen the
suggestion of common sense in this matter
are put aside, snd that, too, against the dic
tates of judgment. Pure air and exercise, it
is proverbial, are indispensable necessities
both fur children and grown persons; and no
contrivance or device can produce a substitute
for their needed stimulous. Nothing can
compensate for th want of thia Invigorating
process of nature the tonic Influence of pure
sir, the joyous sunshine, and perpotuat varie
ty of sights and sounds; yet even those who
acknowledge all thia, adopt the prison system
aa a general rule, chiefly from considerations
of convenience. The children should be
dressed to be oul; the nurse ha not time to
take them, &c, and the hapless little creature
are deprived even of the scanty allowance of
exercise they are permitted at more conve
nient seasons; those who hav charge over
them forgetting that every deprivation tell
on th growing aystem of a child, debilitate
him and impair th recuperative power of
nature. Could they see In a glass th pros
pective train of evil attendant on the break
ing of the habit of constant exercise In the
fresh sir, they would even grudge the Inter
ruption usually thought necessary in Inclem

Persia. The military power of Persia.
with which country Great Britain ha just
gone to war, is said to consist of eighty
thousand infantry, drilled by European offi
cer, and composed in part of regular troops:
numerous, out uRaiscipiineo esvsiry: and ar-
tilery, winch is said by English traveller
themselves to be in admirable condition and
practice. The British expedition against
rersis consists or nine nrst class war steam,
ere, twenty-six Bailing transports, and aiz
thousand efficient troops which have sailed
from Bombay for the Persian Gulf, and as
many more which have left England for the
same destination. Herat, which has lutely
fallen, Is said to be the gate to the high road
of travel and commerce with India, and Ens-
land cannot permit it to remain under hostile
influence. Persia, thne far a barrier between
Russia and the English, bids fair to become
the theatre of a conflict which will decide
forever the mastery of the East.
A Southern Harbob. Mr. Elliott of the
South Carolina Legislature, introduced
cently from the Committee on Foreign Re

bor, near the town of Beaufort in that State.
Mr. Elliott explained that he had given con
sideration to the subject, - thst the town of
Ueauforl had thedeepest bar and most ea
nscious harbor South of fTbenniM-ukt! . Hint
those were of a permouW character, and not
subject to the shirting sands or the Southern
const; that both history and tradition repre
sented the harbor as possessing great depth
in former nmes,ana me recent coast survey
confirms this representation; that Lieut. Mar

Circulation or the Blocd. For the dis-
covery of this wonderful function of nature,
we are indebted to tr. Harvey, who lived in
the time of Queen Elizabeth: the knowledge
of wnicn nns ronierrea incalculable sovanta
gea upon mankind. The velocity with which
the blood must flow when the heart beat
"violently" is inconceivable; for In the "ordi.
nary" course or nature, the heart contracts
4000 times in on hour, each time ejecting one
ounce of blood.
To be more particular in our description, it
is necesssry to state, that there is provided in
the central part of the body a hollow muscle,
invested witn spiral tubes, running In both
directions. By th contraction of these fibres,
the side or the muscular catntle are necea
earily squeezed together, so sa to force out
any fluid which they may at that time contain;
by the relaxation of the same fibre, th cavi
tie are In their turn dilated; and, of course,
prepared to admit every fluid which may be
poured into them. Into these, csvilie are
inserted the great trunks, both of the arteries
which carry out the blood, and of the veins
which bring it back. Thia ia a general ac
count of tha apparatus; and the simplest ides
ot It action is, that by each contraction a
portion of blood is forced as by a syringe into
the arteries; and nt each dilation an equal
portion is received from the veins. : This
produces at each pulse, s motion and change
in tne mass oi uiooa to tne sisouni oi wnai
the cavity contains, which in a full ' grown
heart is about sn ounce, or two table spoons.
fnl. Eauli cavity at least wjll contain one
ounce of blood. The benrteonlracls 4000
times in one hour, from which It follows, that
there passes through tha heart every hour
4000 ounces, or 860 pounds ef blood. Now
the whole mass of blood is shout twenty five
pounds; so that s quantity of blood, rqual to
the whole blood within the . body, pusses
through the heart fourteen times in one hour,
which la about one ounce every hvs minutes.
