the sickness at long branch. Dr. Sayre, the resident physician,'and Dr. Murphy, the Health Commissioner, who w'ero requested by the Mayor of New York to visit, LoDg Branch and examine into the character of the disease there prevailing, have made a report on the subject. These gentlemen state that they at Long Branch on the after noon of the 22a instant, and devoted two nights and a day to the examination of the disease. There have been ninety cases and thirty-seven deaths at Long Branch and its vicinity since the breaking out of the disease. The disease commences with a violent chill, and the first stage lasts about sixteen hours. During this many die. The second period is from two to three days, after which convales cence may take place. The most alarming symptoms are congestion of the-head and a nervous paralysis, which, until removed, ren der the administration 6f remedies ineffective. The technical name of the disease is cerebro spinal meningitis, and the membranes of the brain and spinal marrow are the seat of inflam mation. It is neither contagious nor infections, nor are there any atmospheric conditions which were obvious to cause its existence. There are no swamps or stagnant water in the vicinity from which the presence of malaria might be infused; on the contrary, the situation is on aandv soil, and open to the pure air of the ocean. The diet of many who have been seized has been had. Flour made from spoiled grain has been employed as an article of domestic con sumption, and a substitute for coffee made to a considerable extent from smutted rye has been used. It is the custom of many families to burn kerosene lamps all night, the wick being put down. This vitiates the air, and fills the sleeping apartments with an impure gas. Every case of the disease (and the physicians visited all now sick) could be traced to distinct causes.—the depression of the system by improper food, by breathing foal air, or by fear and moral influences of a di spiriting character. Exposure to cold or fatigue then would bring on the attack. GYMNASTICS AND CALISTHENICS. The arrangements and facilities of the “ In stitute” of Professors Hillebrand and Lewis, for teaching and practising these important arts, are most complete. We paid a recent visit to their establishment, and upon first ascending the stairs we were shown into one of the large saloons which is generally used by Ladies. It is furnished with every conceivable form of gymnastic apparatus. A class of children were going through light exercises with wooden dumb-bells and rings. They changed from this exercise to the use of the apparatus, in whicWbe took great delight and displayed much-agility. They went through a vajjety of performances suited to their abilities. ~lt was easy to see by the grace and skill they displayed __ which of them had recently commenced and which were adepts in the art. The Professors are of opinion that light gymnastics, while excellent for weakly persons, are insufficient for the powers of a healthy man. They adopt a style of gymnastics between the two,neither very light nor very heavy. But they wish it distinctly understood that they use the light gymnastics (or calisthenics) as one branch of their exercises. In regard to the benefits de rived from the exercise of the gymnasium, they are too numerous and too weE understood to need special comment. Gymnastics not only impart fullness and strength to the muscles but they increase the flexibility of the frame and the dexterity of all its movements, and thus contribute to the re moval of various deformities and chronic diseases that are beyond the reach of medicine. Exercise tends to eradicate disease. The early stages of consumption, debility, indigestion, scrofula, hysterics, abdominal diseases can be benefited or entirely cured by gymnastics. Lord Bacon declared that gymnastics were a universal panacea. The institute of Messrs. Hillebrand'& Lewis has a number of large Baloons for the different sexes and classes of different ages, the ladies department being en tirely separate. . Also drawing, dressing rooms, &c.
