It is true that systems of physical training are adopted in a few of our schools, but these are exceptional cases. The rule is that the teachers from long continued sedentary life become averse to exercise'and therefore neglect the training of their pupils; and in too many instances parents are apt: to think that hours taken from the book for physical truining are foolishly spent. But this is a great blunder and in many cases is a cruel one.— It has been demonstrated by those who have studied the subject, that a strong healthy body is essential to a sound mind. The relations between the physical and mental organs of men are so close that the former cannot be injured ~ without injury to the latter. The exeréises upon the play ground is not sufficient, for in them, many of the children do not participate, and many of these exercises are not calculated to develop the chest,.'Che only proper ex* ercise is that which has been found to bring into play the entire physical system, andfor which instructors may find directions in books relative to the subject. The young ladies especially should engage in this kind of exercise, and if school trustees and officers will see that the system of physical training is adopted; and teachers require pupils not only to get the 1 8, but to observe the laws of health we shall have stronger bodies and sounder minds among coming generations. Now that the new school building is ready. for use, the children might all be assgm-bled in the large hall and for hdlfan hour in the morning and evening session engage in singing and calisthenics. In our system of education, for the sake seo to it that while théir minds are stored with useful knowledge their bodies are made strong and héalthy. An investigation of the laws of health would, we are satified, prevent half the pain and sickness of the world. A WELL known physician of San Francisco, asserts, says an éxchange, fered a premium of $500 for a grass fed cow (or half a dozen of them), naturally having the kine pock disease, such as Jenner first derived his kine pock virus from—San Francisco would long ago have been free from the scourge which which has so long afflicted her. Nor is it yet too late for this importgnt step to be taken. An advertisement offering a good round price for such a cow would bring niore than would’ be required; andthis—virus, two or three times removed, would ‘be an effectual and positive preventive against the dreaded disease. THE “Girt” Business. — Messrs. “Hinders & Kast, boot and shoe dealers of San Francisco, were arrested on the complaint of Mr. Elias Levy, in that city, on Friday last.” In common with other retail-boot_and shoe dealers, this firm has advertised that they gave prizes to persons purchasing goods from them exceeding in value two. dollars, and this is held to be in violation of the statutes in respect to lotterivs, gift enterprises, &c.

ARTIFICIAL Stong.—There is a company in San Francisco incorporated with a view of manufacturing stone for house building purposes. They cast the stones any size and in whatsoever dallions of any description—a dog’s head or a horse’s head is just as dear as the most perfect one of Byron or Shakspeare. ‘These stones are cast alsu with anchor holes, if desired, and are coming into demand for house fronts and pillars.
