INTKRIII!I TO FATHERS t FAMI LIES. CAN A CHILD LIVE WITHOUT CLOTHING. The following account of an extraordinary experiment recently mad by parent with ilil lOloOl Clllia, lor vu purpusa ui a;ceniu inn whether be can dispense with clothing, is ? - .i ti.it: V i H-:l. taken irora iusj Luuun Advening man i The (object of the costume of the ancient Britons has often been diseased ; it has been asserted that they were nuked. Those who otiDoscd that View adduced aa reasons the coldness and variable nature of the cli mate. The question has been let at rest by an experiment which has recently beeti made on a cniiu ai ov. ..v. Tim rhild ia fourteen months old, and is the ann nf Mr. -. who determined to ascur. tain what tha human frame would bear. ' The -child is perfectly Baked, day and night J ho leeps without any covering in a room with tha thermometer at 38 decs. ; from this he goes into a bath of 118 degrees; be some lini.i oiiDi In aleen in the buth : ho is tier fectlv indiOerent to boat or cold : is Iinly, oii.. rtioerful and intelliccnt: Ins arrcnr nco constantly reminds the observer ir the t.est efforts of our best paiuters and sculptors Therein is tho brou ultal lie is uio renmy. His simple, natural, easy, graceful, and ever varying postures, aro charming. He arrests tho atteutioti and commands the admiration xt all who see him. The peculiar character f hi skin is very striking ; it is exquisitely -healthy and beautiful. It may be compared, to tho rny or the sun streaming thro' a pain ted window. , Duriog tho progress of the experiment ne 1ns cut three, teeth without manifesting any of tho diaiigreeablo symptoms usual to chil dren in thut coadition. He appears to bo uuito sensible to pain. Occasionally be has n ugly full, but not a sound escapes his lips. II. s manner, demeanor, and general behavior ru equally striking. His moda of saluting a person is to take the hand in a graceful man ner and kiss it. Ho is under the complete control of his father, and is perfectly quiet Juritiir meals, and also when Lo is told to be so. H Roes about all day. amusing and oc curving hima. U in a quiet way. No one ac cuJw.tnod to childreu would know tbcro was a child in the he o.n So incredible jro these results that some of the residents cTbt. Ati , regard the whole matter with mingled I'oeliuvM of horror, amazement and wonder Thnso who have made a careful observation for bemse!vM and prefer the evidence ol 1 heir eyes rather than their euro, see nothing lot to admire and respect. No doubt rome of thuin would even go so fur as to repeat the pxperimtut on their own children, were ,t not for fear of that eternal question, 'AY bat will Mrs. Grundy say t" Wo havo received from a corros pondont an extract from the journal kept by the father of the child : . . ... ' Dec. 2, 1S3T. I wasabout tobogin with fttf-ri'liroacl.os for not having noted during it progress the steps of an experiment to no vel, and iu its cousequonces so important ; b it the fuel is that I was not aware that I was making an experimont until the thing ws done. Henceforward I shall record dai ly incidents which may serve to illustrate tho case, and at an after period methodically treat it. This day Him out-door laborers were enga god in stori"g ice for the ice-house. '1 ho child sleeps on 'the floor, on a travelling rug folded in fuiir. tho room without fire or carpet and is gt tior..!W washed daily. There is a large bow window to tho north. llilln coldest room in the house. He was put to bed at bair.past ten. He is without any -clothes or covering whatever. A tono o'clock being uuuble to sleep, I was a cold with three liUnkxta that I hud to put on a fur clouk. Tun eliild wuktd'np, and made vehement, up peals to be take n in. I took him in. When 1 was goinK to sleep myself, I told him to go to bed.' ll moaned so bitterly that I appro hendi d that b feared the cold. To test him 1 got out of ihf. bed and lay down oti his rug (without clothe) ; ho then would not remain a moment in tho warm bed, but followed me to bin pullet. Ho composed himself to slurp, Iviog like a frog and 1 left him. When he cainu into bud, 1 was obliged to put a blan ket between us for tho bitter cold of his limbs hut overy war thit I could arrange the clothes led to no sig'n that he suffered from the cold or desired the heat. To correct tho frightful Bts of crjmg he used to have, and for another failing which Lad of uecossity to bo put a stop to. I had to have reconn-e formerly to punishment by slinking him, ntul dipping him in a trough of told water. As bis frame hardened under tin! action of fold and very severe champoon. poouii g. punishment 6y these processes be came impossible. i Jin has two meals generally boiled rice, which in put on a napkin on the grouud. and h.i picks it up to the last grain. After that, wheatt-n flour cak with butter, and a enp of milk, which he driuks. While eating his tice Lu looks a different being, there is at ence a pride, and enjoymcat 6f performance, lie has the air uf the orator addressing an UudiellCU. Ituring tin clay ho goes to deep when ho likes, merely lyiit' d wn on the floor. I was remin ded by a lady to-day, that ho is not like a child, bu t a small man. A gon tleman hag just remarked thst be never knew the moauiug c-f 'man-child' nntil he had seen him. The attitude be assumes in keeping is that of the Musselnian making prostrations on his kuoes wiili his hands spread out before him, which could not be if bu suffered from fa tigue ; but hi muscles are too hard for that. Dy this iiieui.s ho concentrates the ealoric in the stomach, and so it is inditluroiit to cold however cold the limbs (and they get fright fully cold to the touch, and nvver numb, bo iug'on the contrary mottled red,) the loins urn always warm. This is tho first working day eincu be has been in my hands that, he has not been in the Vpor bath, it is the nrst word lie bus learn d to say. and he calls for it every morning. Yesterday he was in an hour and a half. He moans a little when the cold water is put ou him, but stops wbeu told to do so. Hot wa ter bo will bear at a temperature that I could cot ensure. Tha problem ho presents physiologically is this : A duvelopement of 'the nerves produ cing pleasurable sensations, nud accrres ponding deudeiiing of those the contrary. Tno intensity of tho enjoymeut which he do rives ffeiu contact w.lli llio kiu is only equal led by tho insensibility of the flesh. We have 'never kuown him since bis exposure ti oxli'uuie cold to cry from pain. Lust night the diffeiuucu between bis power of enjoy ment and miue was brought home to me m a remarkable maouur, by my suffering from the state of the surrounding atmosphere wtyri he knew uoue, eularging to an equal degree the pleasures derivable from atmospheric tem perature. And this is only the commence ment of the process. When he is two years old bo wit bu able to enjoy life, as dependent npoa the surrounding atmosphere, iu the op. pot it e extremes of zone, where lire is suppor table under ordinary circumstances only by means of clotbiiiit. Tho necessity of cloth- ing after a curtain age will uot interfere with the process, as during the night, when the temperature is lowest and no caloric is evol red by action, the body can be exposed. If lie were exposed to cold only, he inieht then suffer from boat, but be is equally armod gainst both. The experiment, In regard to temperature, includes that other experiment which has hitherto been the extreme point contempla ted by innovators the free adtniaaion of oxv- geq. )l is not merely the affording scope to -I . .!.!.. ... .....

Several Put-scngers Seriously Injured, On lhursday morning at . o clock., sus the l itis- burg Oazelte, tho liutler mail tUge started from Allegheny city: with an unsually largo number of passengers sixteen insido and four or tire otiUido. Nothing worthy ofnoto occurred until they were nine mili-sout, with in three-quarters of a wile of Colt's tavern; when one of the lead horses was attacked with the "blind staggers," cud retiled over the rid of the road, pulling a'ong the other leader, together with the shaft horses and the ach. down a nreciniee some thirtv f ot ue D with rocks at liie bottom. Providentially, ut If the ditlanco there was ap:wc of soft level ground a few Icet wide, nud hero tho couch and horses lodged. Had they gone to tho hi th in, or to the ledgeof rocks, it is highly probable that somu might havo been k! d. As it wa.j, there existed great confusion and fuori?, and those who could extricate them selves set to work immediately to uolofe the horses, for fear oltheir commencing to strug gle, thus putting inommineiit danger the three or four passengers whose bodies could bo seen piotruding hom under the stagu Iu all iluec lions. This being done, and tho animals found to bo only a little bruised, the next thing was lu lift up tho coach, io as to allow those underneath to get out. 15 y this time many country wagons had reached the spot, and by the. help of the farmers this was ac- COMIplillfd. Mr. John McAllister, of the Second Ward Allegheny city was tho most scriouhly injur ed. Dr Ormbsy, a passenger, examined him, and found that two. of his lower ribs were broken, spine bruised and the skin rubbed off his back, lio whb ctrtied to Coil's tavern, und bled, where hn remained until about ten o'clock ut night, when M r. Walker, of this city, brought him home in a buggy, arriving there at two o'clock this morning. We cal led on Mr. McA at. noon and it pleases us to nr that he u much easier, although hisliml a ai e vi ry st iff und sore. He ti lls u that as 3 ion us he saw tho lead horses tumbling over, he tried to jump out, and would have succeed ed had not a man been silling on Lib coat 'ap. His head and shoulders were outside, arid the ftnge in striking, hdged fair across his tack, were it must have remained twenty minutes. Had it not been for the yielding nature of Urn ffvownd, he would uo doubt havo been killed. The other persons hurt were a young man named IVss of Allegheny, a Mr. McWhinley of I'.ttelmrg, and un old lady wilhnlitllo boy all of nhoin bad their logs in or.' or loss crush ed by being caught under the falling stage. Hoinii of llio passengers continued their jour ney by tho next coach, otLers returned to Allegheny in market wngous, and oil weie exceedingly thankful that tho uccidcut had not resulted in a fatul fmnutioo.
