It is a well-known. physiological law: that the healthy and vigorous action of the mind is dependent to a great extent upon the healthy condition of the body. An English writer on the effect of gympastie training speaks of twelve non-commissioned officers, ‘‘varying from nineteen to twenty-nine years of age, and of every variety of size, who were so evlarged by the system of exercises through which he took them, thatinfour months many of Heulth is of greater importance than atrength, and though ail may not become athletic, the most delicate child may be made healthier and . stronger by gymnastic training, This people, many being of the opivion that if a child is allowed to ron at large, necessary exercise will. be obtained, We would urge the imupoa trustees and teachers, If the latter’ would procure some books wpon gymnastics, and make themselves thoroughly familiar with the exercises, introduce. it into the schools, we are satisfied in our own mind that a marked improvement would be made in the health of the ehildren after a short time.

Mow te Make our City Prosperous. If we want to have a prosperous town, it is the daty of our people to encourage every one, particularly hew men who come in and settle among us, and not throw stumbling blocks in their way, as is too vuften the case. Those who are worthy and active, whether they have coin or not, should be enocouraged to come and settle here, as their labor alone is money. Those who have capital will buy into our mines, build houses and embark into new enterprises, and we all know there is plenty of room for improvements of . that kind here, It is the duty of all, at heart, to-go to work und stimalate every legtimate enterprise by giving it all the encouragement is possible te do— Cultivate a public spirit, ‘and do more work and less talk, Each une should help bis neighbor, and if he isin aanger of breaking down, boost him upin any way that will keep him vn his feet, either by ¢ounwel, kind words, or the loan of money.

He was picked up and seated on the lower steps, where he remained until 11 o’clock at night, at which time the saloon closed. He was put in a wheelbarrow, aud taken to the calaboose, and placed in a room. About noon yesterday be was found dead by the officers, lying in the same posiin which he was placed. The deceased was insensible from the time he fell down stairs.

The cabin is situated near the Kepvtucky mine, east of town. Nicholls was last seen alive, by a friend, on Tuesday. He then complained about being very aick with a paiv in the bowels and took some kind of purgative medicine which he had been in the babit of using in such spells.
