JUL t THE SPAHTAXS. MOST STRANUELY GOVERNED TUE ANCIENT PEOrLE. THE OF Among the Spartans one kind of theft was encouraged, and even au thorized by the law, and by the con sent of the citizens; and this was their stealing herbs or roots from the gardens and public baths ; but if they were caught in the act, they were pun ished for want of dexterity. Thede s;gn of the Spartan legislator, in al lowing this practice, was to inspire the Spartan youths, who were designed for war, with a view to self-deience. and to extent of dominion ; wit, bold n ss, subtlety, and address; to inure them betimes to the life of a soldier ; t teach them to live upon a little, and to be able to shift for themselves. Corpulency incurred public con tempt, anil sometimes banishment. Magnificent sepulchres were forbidden ; nor was the plainest, or most modest inscription permitted, uxcept for such a was slain in battle, or for women who had devoted themselves to a re ligious life. Tears, sighs, and out cries were not permitted in public, because they dishonored Spartans, who ought to beai all things with equanimity. Graves were allowed in the city, and they buried close to the temples, that all people might he fa miliar with death, ami not conceive it as a thing dreadful in itself, or that dead bodies defied the living. Celibacy was regarded in men as in famous, and punished by various tokens of contempt. If a man did not marry when at full age, he was liable to an action ; as those also were who to Tried above or below themselves. Such as had three children had certain immunities, and those who had four were free from all taxes. ligins j were married without portions ; and husbands were allowed to beat their wives. The men of Sparta were dis tinguished for thpir virtue, but the Spartan women for their boldness. Lycurgus would not allow all sorts of persons to travel, lest they should bring home foreign ma ine s and return inlected with the licentious customs of other countries. A soldier was the only reputable profession in Sparta ; a mechanic or husbandman was looked upon with contempt. A soldier was never to fly or to turn his back upon his enemies, however superior in number ; or to quit his post; or to deliver up his arms ; in a word, either to conquer or die. A Spartan mother, hearing that her son was killed in battle (fighting for his country), answered coldly : "I brought him into world for no other purpose." After forty years' service, a man was by law no longer required to go into the field ; and consequently, if the militar3' age was thirty years (for this was the period, it is supposed, at which they eutered into the service of their country), the Spaitans were not held invalids till they were seventy. A pretty period of life for a soldier to retire from the arduous career of a warrior, and to receive his half pay ! Drunkenness was considered infam ous among thern, and punished ; and that young men might conceive the greater abhorrence of this species of debauchery, the slaves were compelled to drink to excess, that the beastliness of the vice might appear. When they retired from the public meals, they were not allowed any torches or lights, because it was expected that men who were perfectly sober should be able to find their way in the dark ; besides, this p:i- tice gave them a facility of marciarg without light, a quality very useful to them in time of war. As to dress, there was no distinc tion between the rich and poor. Their garments were made for use and not for show ; and they were taught betimes to distinguish them selves by their virtues, rather than by their robes. Boys weie always used to go without shoes , nor were they permitted to cut or trim their hair. Bankers were not allowed, and interest was also forbidden in the Spartan commonwealth. A wiiter has observed with respect to Lycurgus, "That this legislator or-, dained that the magistrates should not be appointed by lot, but elected by suffrages. lie deprived riches of the influence and respect annexed to them and divested even love of jealousy." : It has likewise been observed, "That ' the main design of Lycurgus, in the establishment of his laws, and especi ally of that which prohibited the use of gold and silver, was to curb and re-! strain the ambition of his citizens, to disable them from making conquests.! and in a manner to force them to rnn! a manner to force them to con fine themselves within the narrow bounds of their own country." Asthma. The following prescrip- tion was civen mo lv J ion. K. H. French, of the treasury department : Iodide of potassium, two dram3 ; tinc ture of lobelia, half an ounce ; syrup of senega, two ounces ; camphorated tincture of opium, half an ounce ; wa ter suflicient to make four ounces. A teaspoonful every half hour until re lieved. The above cured Mr. French, and has, says the wiiter, been used successfully in my own family. To Preserve the Teeth. Dis solve two ounce? of borax in three pints of b iltno; water, and before it is cold add one tablespoonful of spirits of camphor, and bottle for use. A tablepoonful of this, mixed with an equal quantity of tepid water, and ap plied daily with a soft brush, will pre serve the teeth, extirpate all tartarous adhesion, arrest decay, and make the teeth peariy white.

If one wishes to see the oldest parts of the world let him go to Trenton Falls, and alter visiting the excavations made by the natural action of a moun tain torrent into the ancient rocks, go to the hotel and see the collection made by the landlord, at an expense of ten thousand dollars, of specimens which prove the recoid of a geologic age so remote that no imagination can grasp it. rrofessorAgassiz declared that the land reaching from Trenton Falls to Saratoga was the first that appeared above the sea on the creation. Ilere are the trilobites in great variety, all modeled in black marble, so per fectly preserved in form that the mul titudinous lenses of their eyes are as apparent under the microscope as are those of a living fly. Millions of years before man walked the earth these creatures lived their life, the limestone took on their forms, and here they arel What are scarabcei and ancient intaglii or any other engraved or modeled semblance of the old life compared to the trilobites? These creatures not only lived, but had become everlasting stone millions of years before there was a living man to see them. The old Hotel keeper is enthusiastic over his treasures and proud of the distinguished visitors who have been attracted by what he has to show them. Dr. J. Q. Holland reports in Scribner's Monthly that he said to him with a touch of pardonable pride, "I shall have : Tyndall, Huxley, and Darwin here altogether in September, for they have written me that they are com ing." It is a really exceptional case'tofind a landlord of a hotel who is aconnois seur in art and a lover of science, an who understands his business at the same time and is able to conduct a hotel. Paintings, old and new, adorn the walls ; here is a Durand, there a IJouteille, besides many paintings by Hicks. They are on all the walls ot the first story of the large house; while the collection referred to stands in the office, and is the admiration of all scientists and lovers of nature. Man ufacturer and Builder. Asthmatic Remedies Stech apfel (thorn apple) leaves smoked in a com mon clay pipe, and the smoke inhaled into the lungs, will afford reliet for asthma The dry leaves can le procur ed of any German druggist. Mullen leaves, dried and smoked, and inhaled in the same manner, are also excellent. Chewing the root of dog's bane or wandering silk weed is highly recom mended tor asthma. An inhalatiou of a mixture of' tincture of myrrh and spirits of turpentine has proved bene ficial in stubborn attacks of asthma. A raw cnion eaten before retiring at night will exercise a very soothing effect, and calm any irritating state of the nerves, from which this complaint proceeds. Haw onions are also a spe cific for kidney complaints and stone in the bladder, but must be eaten lib erally lor some time before a cure is effected. A tea made from chestnut leaves which have been gatheied in the fall, and drank constantly in the place of water, will, with pcrseverencc, effect a cure in time. It is a mild, pleasant and harmless beverage, and can be sweetened with sugar and milk to suit the taste. It will tnke at least six months before a beneficial effect is felt. Two teaspoonfnls of salt in a half glass of brandy mixed and drank rapidly will prevent and avc t an attack of asthma. A Porcelain Fiddle. Venice is considerably excited at present over a very unusual sort of a fiddle, the onlv one of its kind, probably, ever made. The manufacturer of this porcelain fiddle was formerly a workman in a Saxon porcelain manufactory. After his return, old and feeble, to his old horae, he attempted to carrv out a long cherished project for making a fiddle, the box of which should be ol china. With the aid of a boy, it is swiv..t, uc uas in tacii succenea in producing a fiddle of this kind, which has a tone of rare purity and aston ishing richness, combined with charm ing harmony and extraordinary power. The box part, or resonator, is exceed ingly light, and the strings are made of metallic wires, while the bow, de parting from the usual form, is curved, making almost a semi-circle. The success of this clever V pnption wli" had enjoyed the advantages of theskill i acquired in auerman porcelain factory, may be the means of directing musU cians to the advantages of the clear ringing, but fragile china and glass for various similar uses in acoustics!

Set thou a kettle over the roaring crackling fire, and put therein two quarts of water, well salt ed, and then "fetch on your meal' When the water (like a woman who finds a loving note in her husband's pocket signed "Thy own Isadora"; is ready to boil over, stir thou brisklv in the meal until it is as thick as bees round a beehive ; then add a quait of cold water, and put in more meal and stir tillwell, till all the lumps have disappeared as mosquitoes do in the daytime. jow put it in a buttered earthen dish, and set in a warm place till noon, and it will come up as flour did last week.

The abatement of pain was immediate, and in four hours both pain and swell! ing were gone. The next day the scalded hand differed from the other only by a slight swelling and redness.
