Our readers will remember that about the time of the mystenous disappearance of Mr. M. L. Truesdell, of Liberty, this county, and who has never been heard from since, there was found the charred remains of a person, where a barn bad been burned, near Athens, Bradford co., Pa. Friends of Mr. Truesdell, were telegraphed for, and went there to solve the mystery if possible but nothing satisfacto ry was obtained. We copy the following late reference to it trout the Bradford Reporter : "An unpleasant rumor is afloat in regard to a murder said to have been committed in :Athens, some tithe since. It will be remembered that a barn was burned near the village early last Spring, and the remains of a human being found in the ruins. No clue to the mystery• was ever discovered, but in a quarrel among the members of Charles Day's family last week, a daughter charged her father with having something to do with the affair. We have not heard the particulars, and sincerely trust that there may be no truth in the report." Had His Leg .A.mgatated, Some months ago Ed. 1.1.

It is a mistake to suppose that labor is an unpleasant eondit it life, It is a mutter of experience that there is more contentment in attending to any kind of occupation than there is in haiking for some occupation. Attend, therefore, to your business, and regard your business as being worthy or ail your attention. Worklogn.en are opt to consider that their oc cupations alone are laborious; but in thst mat ter they are mistaken. Labor of mind is gen; entity even more fatiguing than physical labor. It is erronerous to suppose that others do not work as well as we do, simply because their work is different from ours. Labor is the enrth ly of man, and until the nature of man is changed, the want of something to do will produce all the horrors of ennui. Gamb ling and other reprehensible dissipations are . all owing to the 'fact that human nature cannot support a state of idleness. ' To live without purpose is to lead a very restless life. Ro %M'ER. Historical Chart, We have latch - had the pleasure of examm ing Lyman's Ili:Omit:al Chart, a work which we believe is destined ti take a prominent place in our schools and libraries as an almost indis peindbfe aid in the study 01 history. The plan is novel and striking. It presents the world's history by centuries, and contains all the prom inent events of the civil, religious, and literary history of the world, from the earliest times to the psi-sent day. It brings the lye to the aid of the mind by the use of a chart, In which time is represented as a stream, flowing a certain alloted space each century; different contempo rary nations arc represented by different colored streams flowing paralel ; when n nation begins, the stream begins : when one nation conqueres another, the stream sweeps around, blots it out, and moves on, wider than belore. The eveas are ail written down in tho s' ream just when they took place, those more prominent in larger type, those less prominent in smaller type. The date of the century is given in large figures at the top of each page, and the date in that century or each event recorded; is placed just before the event. Thus the renter has spread out under his eyes the history of a cen tury, and in such shape that at u glance the mind trkes In the general aspect of the wbole period, the lei:litre importance of each nation, the particular history of each, and the content puranututs history 01 all, and the mind imbibes r.nd retains the facts which are given both to the eye and the thought. 'I be chart is really a sue eessful eflort arbistorical object teaching." here arc a few examples of what is said in its favor; Rev. S. Robinson, D. D.,well known through out the United States ao a leading historian, says: "I tsould recommend •Lyinan's lod Chart' front a ee main knotrirdve of its ha tacusarable inciso . rNacr in acquiring distinct con ceptions of history, by methods which years of reading could not supply' I ant persuaded that in one month a more competent knon ledge of history can be gal red by its inspection that in oar peer by any course of rending." Prof. Calvin E. Stowe, 1). D., of Andover Seminary, says "It affords the .same advant age to the study of History thr4: maps do to the study of Geography. and tAda only to be known to be nolversady regarded as equally indispensible." Prof. C. a•clovelmo), of Philadelphia. says : "flaying some years ego felt the need of some aid to the rye in teaching history, in orier to give an enlarged, general, and connected view of the history of the world, I imported one or two Historical Charts from England, but they did not answer my expectabots, and I threw them aside. But in Mr. Lyman's Chart I feel that I have the very WO I have hMg wished ; anti 1 have believed it to be a sober truth that more correct knowledge and more clear concep ti,n4 id . 0, nets and the great Moral bearings of history tan be galded from the study of this i n one ',ma !ban could be gained front mere text books in orter voir."

Let others give a fancy sketch, In roseate colors dyed, My truthful reminiscences . Arc on the shade side. 'Twits in a famed New England State, Wl:ere teachers still abound ; I took , my first certificate, and went to boarding round. With courage strong for one so young (My age was scarce fourteen. But you must know that Yankee girls Are never very green,) With couarge strong and heart elate, 1 tread the untried ground— Th- teaching part was pleasant work, But 0 the hoarding round ! Tu Mrs. Smith I first applied— She wished to put It off ; iler 'helps' had left, and little sis Had got the whooping cough. The Mallorys were cleaning house, But Iles. Jouts, I found, Was always ready to receive The Teacher boarding round. The Browns were very• clever folks (AS easy people are,) They heaped my plate and wondered why I did not eat my share. I went to bed hut not to sleep, For soon, alas I I found Teachers were not the only race Who lived by boarding round. Those sun-dried dinners, mile long Walks Through dust and mud and ram, That heavy satchel tuggeeto school, And then lugged back again.. Such were the stern realities Which on my pathway frowned, Some fire and twenty years ago, When 1 went boar.!ing round. 0, relic of the darkened age, When custom tnade the laws, I blyM for that community Who would defend thy cause. Let all who with the galling chain Ilaur hitherto been bound, Ex&aim with one united voice, We'll never wore board round. Diptheria, Dr. Ellsba Harris: registrar of vital statistics, New York, states that diptheria now prevails its about half the cities with which his bureau is in correspendence In the Unite,) States, prov ing more fatal in interior towns than In large cities. In view of this ftwt the Board of Health of New York has devoted considerable atten tion to this subject- At the last meeting of that body it adopted att interesting and impor tant report of the Sanitary Commlttm,refernng to this matter. The repot t speaks of the mode of attack.— Diptherie Is caused by the inoculation el the air passages with the diphtheritic polson,which from this point infects the whole system. The local inflanettion is extended with the forma tion of membrane (exudation.) The fever and general symptoms are the result of thin local infection. Diphtheria is, therefore, a contagious disease, (not, perhaps, as markedly so as scar let fever.) induced by contact with objects and persons infected. It may he diffused by the ex halations of the sick anti the air surrounding them, or directly by the exudation, as in the act pf kissing, coughing, spitting,- sneezing, or by the Infected articles used, es towels, napkins, handkerchiefs, &c. The poison clings with great tenacity to cer, Min pinny, rooms and houses, where it rosy occasion cases alter a lapse of months. In or dinary attacks :he poison begins to clef the mo ment it lodges upon the tissues, hut, like a vac cination. causes slight sensible effects for from two to live days. Then there is marked pros tration,drynesrs of the throat, and pricking pain to swallowing. The throat becomes red, and patches of white exudation appear. The glands or the neck swell. In mild cases these symp toms subside on the third or fourth day after their appearance. If more severe, these symp toms may be prolonged and the fever increases, the- local indamation spreads, and exudation rapidly follows. Diphtheria attacks by preference children be tween the ages of 1 and 10 years, the greatest mortality being in the second, third and fourth yearsq children of feeble constitutions, and those weakened by previous sickness, and those suffering from catarrh, cronp and other forms of throat affections. All classes arc liable to attacks of diphtheria where it is prevailing, but those suffer most eveiely who live upon low wet ground, in houses with imperfect drainage, or surroundsd by offensive matter, in damp rooms/mil cellars, in overcrowded and illy ven tilated apartments. Diphtheria is not affected by either snow or rain, cold or heat or dmuth. The precautions. suggested are cleanliness in and around the dwelling, anti pure air in. living mid sleeping rooms are of the utmost import ance wherever any contagions disease is pre vailing,as cleanliness tends both to prevent and mitigate it. Every kind and source of filth around and in the house should be thoroughly removed. Cellars and tool areas should be cleansed and disinfected ; drains should be put in perfect order, dirty walls, and ceilings should to lane-washed, and every occupied room should be thoroughly ventilated. Apartments which have been occupied by persons sick with diphtheria should be cleansed with disinfect ants, ceiling.; lime-washed, and woodwork painted, the carpets, bedelothing, upholstered furniture, ac., expoSed many days to fresh air, and the rooms exposed to currents of fresh air for at least one week before reoccupation. No child should tie allowed to kiss strange children, nor those suffering from sore throat (the disgusting custom of compelling children to kiss every visitor is a well-contrived method of propagating other grave diseases titan diph theria,) nor should it child steep with or be con fined to rooms occupied by, or use artielss,such as toys, takes in the mouth, handkerchiefs,etc., belonging to children having sure throat,croup or catarrh. it the weather should be cold, the child should be warmly clad in , flannels. When dl litheria is in the house or lu the family, the well children should be scrupulously, kept ilpart from the sick, iti dry; well aired rooms, anti ev ery possible source of infection through the air, by personal contact whit the sick, and by arti cles used abtiift,thom, or in their rooms should be rigidly goarded. • • Every ankh of sore thrnaccrottP tftudeittarib should be attended to at once. "Thu feeble should have invigorating food and treatment.

Spider is the Simla A short time since a young lady, a resident ot Brookville, Pa., experienced a creeping sen sation in her nose after she had retired to the night, and all efforts to remove the annoyance were without the desired eflect,the difficulty re • undoing for several days, merely changin; to a location further up in the nostril. Al length it seemed to pass down into the throat, causing a choking sensation. Immediately alter its dis appearance the victim experienced acute pains in tit stomach, and called medical assistance in vain, the only thing that gave her any relief being copious doses of brandy, which failed to produce any of the usual effects. Finally se ven: vomiting ensued, and after one whole night's suffering, and the patient giving up hopes of life, the cause of the trouble was re move,', and an examination found it to be a small particle of blood and matter, in the cen ter of which was a common-sized black spider. Evidently the brandy saved the young lady's lite. How to Admit Bonelicial Air In nearly all small dwelling houses ventila tion is allowed to take care of itself, and while the occupants are not confined to one room,bnt . move from one room to another, the ciculation of air caused by the opening of doors is suffici ent to keep up a supply of fresh air. During sickness, however, and at nights, there is noth ing left but a Ilobsen's choice between foul air and a dangerous draught A recent author treating of philosophy for practical use sug gests a method of avoiding both. A piece of wood three inchas high and exactly as long as the breadth of the window is to be prepared.— When venttlat ilMen Is required raiso the sash, put the strip of wood on the sill and draw the sash down closely upon It. If the window is well fitted there will be no draught at,the low er part of the sash, but between the upper bar and the lower bar of upper sash there will be an opening through which a perpendicular cm rent of air may enter or pass out of the room but not he felt us a draught such as 'would be created by simply raising or lowering thosash., Don't Abuse the old Horse.
