NIGHT Aimâ€"An extraordinary fallacy is the dread of night air.â€"â€" What air- can we breathe at night but night air? The choice is be- tweenvpure night’ air from without and foul night air from withinâ€"â€" .Most people prefer the latter. An unaccountable choice. What will they say ifit is proved to be true that fully one~half0f all the disease we suffer from is occasionedhy people sleeping with their windows Isliut'l. An open window most nights in the year can never hurt any one. This is not to say that light is not necessary for recovery. In great cities night air is often the h t and purest at? who had in the twenty-four hours. I could better understand shutting the windows in towns during the day, thin during the night, for the sake of the sick. The absence ofsmoke, the qumt, all tend to make night the best time for airing the patient. One of- our highest medical authorities on con- sumption and climate, has told me that the air in London is never so good as after ten o'clock at night.

A gentleman riding in an Eastern rail road car, which was rather scantily sup- plied‘ with passengers, observed on the scat before him a lean, slabsided Yankee; every feature of his face seemed to ask a question, and a little circumstance soon proved that he possessed a more “ inquisi- tive mind.” ‘Before him, occupying an entire scat, sat a lady dressed in' deep black, and after shifting his position seve- ral tunes, and manoeuvring to get an op- portunity to look into her faCe, he at length caught lirr rye. “ ln affliction?” .froin'Leicestcr Square, and was re-t ;sat down, , My neighbor on the left Eoffered me a portion ofa kitten, the "one on the right the wing of an owl, and the third pressed on me the leg ofa dog.

In this country obeisity is considered the *lllgllcst beauty in man. The Chi- nese with whom if Was at table had. lgood appetites; they ate a good tileal, and used their long transpar- ent finger nails, which are as hard as iron, to separate their food into small portions. That was to me a new employment for human nails.- Wine made from rice. tea, and dif- ferent of syrup were sent round the table. 1 confined myself to taking a few glasses 'oftl‘ie latter, but it would be difficult for me to give the names or to describe the taste. This repast ‘asted three mor- tal hours, and when it was over a little girl ten years of age came in and offered us liqueurs. She was not ugly in European eyes, and in those ofthe Chinese was a pcrfe :tbcauty. I-IerIIcyes were triangular, her nose thick, her teeth white, and her hair raised to a prodigious height. She poured out to each guest a glass of fermented liquor, which to me was Idetcstable ; received gravely the allegorical Compliments whichnearly everybody addressed to her, and then trotted off as if she had only wooden legs; her feet, in truth, vere so small that scarcely be distinguished.
