German Pea6e Festivities at San Francisco. We roaka the following extracts from a repoit of a meeting of the Committee of Arrangements of the German Peace celebration of San Francisco, published in the Daily Bulletin, March 15th: The Committee on .Music reported that they had thus far engaged 10 bands and 35 musicianb for the concert and dancing at the Gardens and one for Piatt's Hall. Charles Schnltzei leader of the Or chestra at the California Theater, has composed a Grand March for the occa sion. It will be played on the march to the Gardens and at Piatt's Hall. Grand Marshal Bauer reported that work had been commenced on the tri umphal cars. The Committee on Invitations re ported that the following gentlemen have accepted invitations to be present and take part in the celebration : Col lector Phelps, U. S. District Attorney Latimer, Russian, Sweedish, Wurtem berg, and Bavarian Consuls, TJ. S. Mar shalMorris. The Committee on Streets, to make inquiries relative to the closing of stores, reported that there would be a general suspension of business on the day of the festival, both American and German houses in various parts of the city having signified their intention to close their establishments. Marriage between Jew and Gentile A very interesting legal question lias arisen relating to the intermarriage of an American citizen, of a Christian de nomination, with a Jewess, a resident at the time of the ceremony within the Prussian dominions, the marriage rites having been celebrated by a Rabbi of ficiating out of his own diocese and outside of the territory of which he was himself a resident nnd a subject. By the law of Prussia it appears that such marriage is wholly void and of no legal force within the kingdom or em pire. The parties interested anneal irom their little "pent npUtica," some where in the Grand Duchy of Saxe "Weimar, and through a notary public, whose place ot bnsmess we here ad vertise gratis named "Neiderstetter, Attorney-at-Law and Notary, Junker Strassc, N,o. 10, Breslau, Prussia," to no less a personage than Judge Barn ard, of the Supreme Court, for his rul ing id the matter. For once, perhaps, Judge Barnard found himself non plasscd, and he referred brother Neid stetters communication to a brother Joachimsen, of the Marine Couit EL CniNKSE School.

BY DIO LEWIS, M. D. I have studied the object of exercise for twenty years. I have invented a system of gymnastics, which has been introduced into nearly all the sohools in America, into most of the English gymnasia, and was introduced into the schools of Berlin a few years ago, -with public ceremonies. I have been the recipient of honora ble testimonials from American Col leges, many important educational bod ies, and from many sources in England and Germany. Please excuse this parade. My object in making these statements, is to give a just emphasis to an opinion which I wish now to express. It is this that walking when property managed, is the best of all exercises. None of the arti ficial exercises can be comn.irerl with it. Every important muscle works ac tively in waiKing. .Notice an active walker. See how every part works legs, hips, arms, shoulders the man works all over. Brisk walking gives even the upper half of tho body fine nlflV1- Thpn Wllt-mr. nneia v.Al.:n You are not obliged to inin f-lnco and employ a teacher.

And walking with a friend, the conversation may be interesting and instructive. All this may be found in natural and active walking. But if the ankles were shackled, so that the feet could be moved but a few inches, the great value of the exercise would be at an end. I asked you to note the arms and shoulders of an active walker. How they swing, and wriggle and wiggle, how thoroughly alive even the upper half of tho body is! The physiology of that part ot the body in walking is this: the shoulder is a sort of center for the muscles of the chest They start from the shoulder, and spread out in every direction like a fan. These muscles, which run in every direction over the chest, around, about, nn. down crosswise, and interlocking witn each oiner in a wonnenut net these mus cles, which determine whether the chest shall be full, strong and active, or thin, weak, and inactive these mus cles, about the chest, which determine whether the vital organs within tho chest shall be large, active and strong, or sman, stow ana weaK tuese mus cles which may contribute more than any others in the body, to the strength and action ot life these muscles, I say, depend for their activity, for their d"e velonmpnt nnd Rtrp.nct.ri nnnn f fran and vigorous motion of the shoulders. Brisk walking, with a swinging of the arms, gives the required movements of me snouiaers. vtovr we understand how it is that, active W.llkinrr pnntrih. ntes so much to the fullness and strength of thp chest, and the organs within the client Please nut vour fincer down fliprp and look out of this front window with me.

Their arms look for all the world, like the 'wings of a Christmas turkey, all tied down, and ready to be put into the oven. It must be hard work to walk in that way ! It is very hard indeed, and you see they have to walk very slowly, and wigslo their hips.

From Wood's Household Magazine for March. r-i , o 1 Funding the Debt. All are desirous of having our finan cial burdens lighted a3 rapidly as pos sible. Nearly all, without regard to party affiliations, unite in awarding to the present Secretary Of the Treasury the credit of endeavoring to liquidate the national obligations. Though con siderable difference of opinion has pre vailed as to the wisdom and feasibility ot Some of his plans, he has the credit of undertaking them with honest mo tives. And thev have many ot them been attended with marked success. The principle of the national debt has, for example, been reduced since March 1st, 18C0, to the extant of 6204,754,413, or a little over one hundred millions of dollars per annum. So far as Mr. Boulwcll's funding schemes are concerned their feasibility is jet to be determined. They have encountered serious opposition in some quarters from the starti His original measure was shorn by the House of Representatives of tile compulsory features bearing upon the national banks, and permission was withheld from hiiri, thrdugh the action of the Ways and Means Committee, with Mr. Schcnk as Chairman, to issue new bonds in foreign languages, to pay the coupons at foreign agencies, or to pay one per cent, commission to have the new bonds placed. When this was done many were of the opinion that the Secretary would abandon his fund ing plans altogether Instead of doing so, however, he decided to take what ever bill he could get frofn Congress, and begin operations at once lihoer it. Then the European war suddenly came on, compelling a postponement of these operation1", and those who had hitherto believed that bonds drawing a lower rate of interest conld not be floated, concluded that wc had heard the last of funding. No sooner, however, were peace negotiations opened between Germany and France than Mr. Bout well resumed his funding labors. .He has appointed agents in the Unit ed States and Europe to receive sub scriptions foi five hundred millions of five per cents; thiee hundred millions of f our-and-a half per cents ; and seven hundred millions of four per cents. As we before observed, the success attend ing these loans is yet to be determined. So far, however, the prospects for pla cing the five hundred millions of five per cents are decidedly encouraging. Viewing the matter as in nowise a par ty measuie, journals and financiers of all political opinion civo the Secretary a hearty support in his endeavors. The fact that ho has persisted, in thefaceof so much opposition, gives much assur ance to believe that he will successfully carry out his programme, and lessen our financial burdens to the extent ot several millions of dollars annually, by lessening the rate of interest on the national debt Hearth and Home. The Hew Congress- THe XLII. Congress met at noon, March 4th, and organized. In the new Senate there are 5S Republicans, 15 Democrats, and one vacancy (in Vir ginia). The last Senate stood C3 Re publicans, and 11 Democrats. It is rumored that Messrs Clayton of Ar kansas, and Alcorn, of Mississippi, will not accept their seats. It is understood that the seat of Mr. Vmce, of North Carolina, will be contested br Jocph C. Abbot, and that of Mr. 'Hamilton, of Texas, by Mr. J. J. Reynold's. The House consists of 131 Republicans and 0G Democrats; vacancies '2; yet to be elected. 14. The vacancies occur, in Illinois, where J. W. Logan, Repres entative at large has been chosen ben ator, arid in Michigan, in the IVth District, Representative Thomas W. Ferry having been elected to the Sen ate. Of the 14 yet to be chosen, Con necticut elects 4, in April; California 3, in September; New Hampshire 3, in March; and iexas4. Ut tho Repres entatives of these States in lat Con gress, 10 were Republicans. Tho last Congress stood, 171 Republicans, and 72 Democrats. Five of the new Rep resentatives arc colored.

A..w (.aujcuui cure tn poverty and vice have been the study of the philanthropist and the states man through all the past acesj and yet they are with us still. "We will, state a few fundamental propositions ; 1st Every able-bodied person should perform a sufficiency of productive or useful labor to support himself or her self and dependents; instead of this, a very large per cent of our people per form no productive labor whatever,' but live wholly off their fellows); this latter class, by the present system, ac cumulate all the surplus, and leava tho producing and laboring classes no re serve to fall back on in case of necessity so that if employment fails or sickness comes, they become dependent on their fellows. 2d. Under tho nresent taUo nnrJ nn. just system enongli labor is expended ior an practical purposes; but tne greed ot gain the false estimate of wealth, the love ot power and dis tinction stimulate the faculties to seek an undue share of the common stock ; and as capability and opportunity dif fer, the result is a few get all' the sur plus. 3d. A large amount of labor is mis applied. Tobacco eots our people $500,000,000 ; whisjev and its adjuncts over 81, 000,000,000 ;" foolish, fantastic, injurious, odious, abomimble, health destroying, body deforming, wasteful extravagance in female dress, another 61,000,000,000, making in all 2,5000, 000,000; an amount more than equal to Our national debt, annnillysquandcred out of the products of tho few who con tribute to the necessities of human surA port. 4th. Cities aggregate largo numbers of people who have no reliable occupa tion; no visible means of support; no natural or acquired fitness to compel by honest means a support from nature" or commei ce, and these must inevitably go under in tho strugelc. ' 5th. In addition to the waste of la bor in producing whisky and tobacco, we must calculate tho waste of life, business capacity, poverty and crime, resulting directly or indirectly there from. Then wo have failures in busi ness from overreaching; fatigue from excessive labor; disappointment and despair, to make up the sum of results' poverty and vice. 0th. There are thousands in this city without employment and suffering for tho most common necessaries, of life. Women and children, bone of our bone", and flesh of our flesh ; human beings with rights as sacred as ours ; claims as strong as ours ; a common father for all; a common origin and a common destiny, pawning their household goods and gods, necessary articles and sacred relics, to pre ent death by starvation, while there is enongli and to spare. "Whosoever lming this world's goods, and see his brother have need, and shuttcth up his bowels of compas sion 'from him, how dwclleth the love of God in him !" 1st No man can get rich rapidly by the products of his own labor. 2d. No man can get rich rapidjy without impoverishing others; for wealth is tho surplus product of labor is joint stock for tho common use ; and hence all accumulations in the hands of tho non-producers must work injustice to tho laboring and prodncin"1 classes, and result in poverty and vice. 3d. That surplus which tho rich hold, according to natural justice be longs to the poor, and therefore injus tice and not charitg,hey are bqund tc prevent the distress now prevailing. 4th.
