Interesting Suggestions and Recommendations The following article, on "Soldiers' Health," la irom Hall's New York Journal of Health. It contains mnch valuable information for both soldiers and civilians: 1. In an ordinary campaign sickness disables or destroys three times as many as tne swora 2. On a inarch, from April to November, the entire clothing should be a colored flannel shirt, with a loosely-buttoned collar, cotton drawers woolen pantaloons, shoes and Blockings, and a lieht-colored felt bat, with broad brim to pro tect the eyes and face from the glare of the sun and from the rain, and a substantial bnt not heavy coat when off duty. 3. Bun stroke is moat tneciuauy prevented oy wearing a silk handkerchief in tne crown ol the hat. 4, Colored blankets are best, and if lined with brown drilling the warmth and durability are doubled, while the protection against dampness from lyine on the ground la almost complete. o. Never lie or lit down on the crass or Dire earth for a moment: rather n?e your bat a handkerchief, even, is a great protection. The warmer you are the greater need tor this pro tection, as a damp vapor is immediately gene rated, to be absorbed by the clothing, and to cool yon off too rapiaiy. b. While marching, or on otuer active amy, the more thirsty you are, the more essential Is it to safety of life itself, to rinse out the mouth two or three times, and then take a swollow of water at a time, with short intervals. A brave French general, on a lorced march, leu dead on the inBtant, by drinking largely ot cold water, when snow was on tne ground. 7. Abundant sleep is essential to ooaity cm- ciency, and to that alertness of mind which is all-important in an engagement; and few things more certainly and more effectually prevent sound sleep than eating heartily after sun down, especially alter a heavy mtrcrt or acne- jate battle. 8. Nothing is more certain to secure endu ranee and capability of long-continued effort, than the avoidance ot ever; thing as a urinlt ex cept cold water, not excluding cofTeo at break fast, l'rius as little aa pajsimo, ot even oia water. 9. After any sort of exhausting effort, a cup of coffee, bot or cold, is an admirable sustatner of the strength, until nature begins to recover herself. 10. Never eat heartily fast before a great un dertaking, because the nervous power is Irre sistibly drawn to the stomach lo manage the lood eaten, thus drawing oil mat supply wnica the brain and muscles so much need. 11. If persons will drink brandy, It is incom parably safer to do so after an effort than before; lor it can give only a transient strengtn, lasting but a few minutes; but as it can never be known how long any given effort ia to be kept in con tinuance, and if longer than a few minutes, the body becomes more feeble than it would have been without the stimulus, it is clear that its use before an effort is always hazardous, and is always unwise. 12, Never go to sleep, especially after a great effort, even in hot weather, without some cov ering over yon. 13. Under all circumstances, ratner tnan no down on the bare ground, lie in the hollow of two logs placed together, or across several smaller pieces of wood, laid fide by side; or sit on your hat, leaning against a tree. A nap of ten or fifteen minutes in that position will refresh you more than an hour on tne bare earth, with the additional advantage ot perfect safety. 14. A cut ia lees oangerou3 man a nuuet wound, and heals more rapidly. 15. It from any wound the blood spirts out in jets, instead of a steady stream, yon will die in a few minutes, unless it is remedied; because an artery has been divided, and that takes the blood direct from the fountain of life. To stop this !nstantly,tie a handkerchief or oth er cloth very loosely bitwikn the wound and the heart; put a stick, bayonet, or ramrod be taetn the skin and the hankerchief; and twist it around uutil the bleeding ceases, and keep it thus until the surgeon arrives. 16. If tbe blood flows in a Blow, regular stream, a vein has been pierced, and the hand kerchief must be on tbe other side ot the wound from the heart; that is, below the wound. 17. A bulletthrough the abdomen (belly or stomach is more certainly fatal than if aimed at the head or heart; for in tbe latter cases the ball is often glanced off by the bone, or follows round it under the akin; but when it enters the stomach or bowels, from any direction, death is Inevitable under all conceivable circum stances, but is scarcely ever instantaneous- Generally tne person lives a aay or two witn perfect clearness of intellect, often not suffer ing greatly. The practical bearing of this statement in reference to the great future is clear. 18. Let the whole beard grow, but not longer than some three Inches. This Btrengthcus and thickens its growth, and thus makes a more perfect protection for tbe lungs against dust, and for the throat against winds and cold in winter, while In tbe summer a greater perspi ration of the skin is induced, with an increase of evaporation; bence, greater cooluess of the parts on tne outside, wntie mo inroat ia less feverish, thirsty and dry. 19. Avoid lats and Ut meats in summer aud in all warm days. 20. Whenever possible, take a plunge into any. lake or running stream every morning as soon aa yon get op; it none at nana, enoeavorto wash the body ail over as soon as you leave your bed, for personal cleanliness eats like a cnarm against an diseases, always eitnerwara ing them on altogether or greatly mitigating their seventy ana snortening tnetr duration. XI. Keep tbe hair ot the bead closely cut say within an inch and a half of the scalp in very part, repeated on tne nrst ot eacb moutD and wash tbe whole scalp plentifully in cold wa ter every morning. , 2!!. Wear woolen stockings and moderately loose shoes, keeping the toe and finger-uails always cnt close. Xi. it ia more important to wash the feet well every night than to wash the faoe and handa of mornings, because it aids in keeping the skin and nails soft, and to prevent cha&nga, blisters and corns, an or which greatly interfere with a soldiers outy. . 24. The most universally safe position after all stunniogs, hurts and wounds, Is that of be ing placed on tbe back, the head being elevated three or lour incnes oniy, aiding more tnan any one thing eise oan oo, to equalize and re store tbe proper circulation of the blood. . 25. s The more weary yon are after a march or other work, the more easily will yon take told, If you remain stui alter it is over, nn less, the moment you cease motion, you throw a coat or blanket over your shoulders. This precaution should be taken in tbe warmest weather, especially if there la even a slight air Stirring. 26. The greatest physical kindness you can show a severely wounded comrado is first to place bim on bis back, and then run with all your might lor some water w anna ; not a see ond ought to be lost. If no vessel ia at band take vnnr hat: if no hat. off with your shirt, wring it out once, tie the arms tn a knot, as also the lower end, thus making a bag, open at tbe neck only. A fleet perBon can convey a bucket ful half a mile iu this way. I've seen a dying man clutch at a single drop of water from the fingers' end, wiln tbe voraciousness of a fam ished tiger. 27. If wot to tbe skin by rain or by swim miug rivers, keep in motion uutil the clothes are dried, and no barm will result. 28. Whenever it is possible, do, by all means, when you have to use water for cooking or drinking from ponda or sluggish streams, boil it well, and when cool, shake it, or stir it, so that the oxygen ol the air snail get to it, which greatly improves it for drinking. This boiling arrests the process of fermentation which arises irom tbe presence or organio ana inorganic im purities, thus tending to prevent cholera and all bowel diseases. If there is no time for boll ing, at least strain it through a cloth, even if you have to use a shirt or trowser-lcg. 2'J. Twelve men are hit in battle dressed in red where there are only five dressed in a blu ish gray a difference of more than two to one; green, seven; brown, six. 30, Water can be made almost ice cool in tbe hottest wentlicr by closely enveloping a filled canteen, or other vessel, with a woolen cloth, kept plentifully wetted and exposed. 31. Wbilo on a march, lie down tho moment you halt for a rest. Every minute spent in that position refreshes more than five minutes stand' ing or loitering about. 32. A daily evacuation of the bowels Is in, dispensable to bodily health, vigor and endu rance; this is promoted in many cases by stir ring a tablespoonful of corn (Indian) meal in a glass of water, and drinking it on rising in tbe morning. 33. Loose bowels, namely, acting more than once a day, with a leeltng ot debility after wards, is tbo first step towards cholera. Tbe best remedy ia instant and perfect quietude of body, eating nothing but boiled rice, with or without boiled milk; in more decided cases woolen fl tnnel, with two thicknesses iu front. should bo bound tightly around tbe abdomen, especially if marching is a necessity, 34. To "have been to the wars" ia a life long honor, increasing with advancing years, whilo to have died in defense of your country will be the boast and the glory ol your child ren's children. Gunpowder Manufacture. The invention of gunpowder is claimed bv the r i. .l . .. . uermuiia mr ineir countryman, uertnoidui Schwartz; but it ia well known to have been in use among tho Chinese sinco A. D. 65. Some of the be.tt qualities are composed an follows: KITIR, CilARCOtl., aui.ruui. ...7,r ,...7S ...05 ...7H IS I.' 15 1'.' 83 10 10 vn 0.12. Army powder. Sporting Mining French Tho Ingredients are firft reduced to an Im palpable powder in cylinder mills workod by water power, or between metallio rollers. It is next weighed, then properly mixed in a mixing; trough with a wooden roller for three hours, and at some mills it ia merely stirred abont in a large tuo lor a snort time; but when this ia tbe caee, moro time ia allowed for iucorporatlnr'. which is the next process The cylinders of moit incorporating milla aro two in number, and made of a very tough description of stone; they each weigh about three tuns. The bed of the mill on which they revolve ia of the aims ma. terial; but cylinders and beds of iron are also much used. The objection to iron beds is that they generally wear hollow In the middle, and it would be out of the question to have stone cylinders and iron beds. The charge which is placed in the mill at a time is 42 lbs., and it Is moistened with 2 pints of water, which is placed in the mill with tbe charge; but this is varied according to the stato of tho atmosphere. At the end of three hours, the charge ia withdrawn from tho mill to be pressed either in a hydraulic or a powerful screw press; it is separated at equal distances by plates ofoopper, so that a uni form pressure may be applied to tbe whole, which is about 600 tuns. When taken from the press it is in thin solid cakes or layers, called "pre?s cake." 1 bis is broken in nieces of about a quarter of an ounce In weight, and removed to the coruing bouse, where it is granulated by placing it in sieves having a rotary shaking motion, given to them by machinery, with two blocks ol lignumvilst wood, which crush the pow der between them and the sides of the sieve; two other sieves of different degrees of fiueness are placed under the first, wbicb catch the oow- uur uu eruaraiu it luiu une ana coarse grain, (for artillery and muskets) and tbe duet, or meal powder, falls iuto a box placed beneath. The powder is now glazed by beinir nlaced In a cask, which revolves on an axle through the centre about thirty times in a minute, which takes eff all the corners of the grains and gives tbem a polish. Tbe last process is drying, which Is perform ed by steam, radiation from hot irons, or solar heat; it is sometimes again sifted before bar reling, to clean it aud prevent it from caking together. The pressing and glazing process, although they lessen the effective force of the powder, are absolutely necessary; first, to give the powder density, to prevent ita breaking bv carriage; second, to prevent its absorbing moift ure from the atmosphere, which it ia liable to do from the alkali whioh la in the charcoal: third, to prevent the powder losine ita nower when kept for any length of timo. The quality of the powder produced depends more on the care taken in its manufacture than on the exact proportions ot tbe ingredients. How the World is Governed. There are about one hundred senaratal nr. ganized governments in the world at the ores- eu. viuiu. Awnny one nan are monarchies in Europe; and of these a large proportion are pet ty prinoipalities and dukedom's, containing alto gether about six millions of inhabitants. Of the governments of Europe, Great Britain is a limited monarchy; France is nominally consti tutional, dui, in reauty, an absolute monarchy; Russia and Austria are absolute: Prussia. Snain and Sardinia are limited, with two chambers of deputies. There are only four republici In Eu ropeSwitzerland, San Marino, Montenegro, auu Anuurre. i uo turee latter contain an ag gregate population of not over 120,000 people. Switzerland, secure In her mountain fastness, is now, by common consent, left unmolested. The governments of Asia are all absolute despotisms. Thibet has the name of being a , , , . 3 n. " nierarcoy, out uiuers in no practical sense Irom a despotism. In Africa, the Barbary States, and all the va rious negro tribes, of whatever name, are ruled despotically, exoept Liberia, which is republi can, end may be an opening wsdee of olvllin- tion on that continent. This experiment, with that of the Island of Ilayti, would seem to in dioate the capacity ot tbe negro race for self- government. The great islands in toe southern and Pacific Oceans are mostly Independent and dcsnotle such as Japan, with a population of twenty n.!I- tionB, ana niaaagascar, containing about nve million!. Tbe Sandwich and Society Islands are limited monarchies, and the other Islands in tbe Southern and Paoifio Oceans belong mostly to the different European cowers, and are ruled according to their respective forms of government. - ; On the American continent, there Is bat one monarchical government that of Basil which is, however, liberally constitutional. , In the three great geographical divisions of Amerloa, there are now eighteen separate republics.

It is believed that such a remedy is wanted by those who suffer from Strumous complaints, ond that one which will accomplish their cure must prove of immense service to this large class of our nfllicted fellow citizens. How completely this compound will do it has been proven by experiment on many of the worst cases to be found of tho following complaints : Scrofula and Scrofulous Complaints, Euuptionb and Eruptive Diseases, Ulceus, Pimples, Blotches, Tusiors, Salt IIheum, Scald Head, Syphilis and Syphilitic Af fections, Merciiri.vl Disease, Dropsy, Neu raloia on Tia Douloureux, Debility, Dys pepsia and Indioestiox, Erysipelar, Kosb on, St. Anthony's Fire, and indeed tho whale class of complaints arising from Impurity or tjib Blood, This compound will be found a great pro moter of health, when taken in the tipring, to expel tho foul humors which fester in tho blood at that season of tho year. By the time ly expulsion of them many rankling disorders are ninned in tho hud. Multitudes r-nn. hv tho aid of this remedy, spnre themselves from tho endurance of foul eruptions and ulcerous sores, through which the system will strive to rid itself of corruptions, if not assisted to do this through the natural channels of the body by an alterative medicine. Cleanse out tho vitiated blood whenever you find its impurities bursting through the skin in pimples, eruptions, or sores; cleanse it when you find it is ol structcd and sluggish in tho veins ; clcansif it whenever it is foul, and your feelings will tell you when. Even where no particular disorder is felt, people enjoy better health, mid live longer, for cleansing tho blood. Keep the blood healthy, and all is well ; but with this pabulum of life disordered, thero can be no lasting health. Sooner or later something must go wrong, and tho great machinery of life is disordered or overthrown. Sarsnparilln has, and deserves much, the reputation of accomplishing these ends. Hut the world lias been egregiously deceived by preparations of it, portly because the drug nlono has not all the virtue tlmt is claimed for it, but moro because many preparations, pretending to bo concentrated extracts of it, contain but little of the virtuo of Sarsaparilra, or nny thing else. During late years the public have been mis led by lurge bottles, pretending to give a quart of Extract of Sarsnparilla for one dollar. Most of these have been frauds upon tho sick, for they not only contain little, if any, Saraapa rilla, but often no curative properties whatev er. Hence, bitter and painful disappointment has followed the use of the various extracts of Sarsnparilla which flood tho market, until tho namo itself is justly despised, and lias become synonymous with imposition and cheat. Still wc call litis compound Sarsaparilla, and intend to supply such a remedy as shall rescue the namo from tho load of obloquy which rests upon it. And wo think wo havo ground for believing it has virtues which are irresistiblo by the ordinary run of tho diseases it is intend eu to cure. In order to securo their complete eradication fr om the system, the remedy should be judiciously taken according to directions on the bottle. prepared by DIt, J. O. A YE IE V CO. LOWELL, MASS.
