The Union Canal of eunsylvania was the first projected on the American conti nent. It Wns suggested by William I'enn in 10 '0, yeurs before a canal was in opo a- tion even 111 tiulaiitl. me route was sur- vojed by Ilavld 1 tenhouse, the .wtrouo- luer. iu ux.t. jui.uii ai iim, i..u.u-k ' The drawings of he oliery in aid of the Union Canal took place in the old Arcade , in Philadelphia on Chestnut street, near Seventh, and were regarded as occasions of public interest. The work was inter rupted by the Revolutionary war, bu lat r on HoUrt Morris, Robert r'ultju and Jacob Francis became interested in it. The canal was eighty-nine miles long, and necessitated in it construction some of the greatest ng nccring wo-.k of the day. The first tunnel in the l.uitou buates was bored lor this canal, and a colossal ti mtiltii. Hininrariiu wrw iihiu! In mini tin water to tlio necessary height. The canal cost 3,lk.0,UUJ (equivalent to ten tunes thai sum t Hie present lime), was wortli 10 the country every dollar it cost, and would never have been com pleted had it not been for he lottery. A rival to the Union Canal was after wards started by the Uostonese to enable ''the Hub" to compete with "sew York; but lthourfh tills canal was completed (through the agency also of a public lot tery formed to aid in its construction) it failed to render Bosto 1 equal to New York, though it did much good, never theless. Various public works besides canals re sorted to tne lottery for aid. When Now England patriotism fell short of linisliing the Bunker Hill Monument, a large lot tery was suggested to coin nue the good work, and u rullle" was gotton up at a "ladies fair," to which Fanny lilssler, the danseuse, contributed, and which supplied the funds required. ISveu tne phlegmatic uermans iook uerinans iook nd drawings of ic place in Vienna then found its kindly to tiie lotteries, an interesting magnitude tool anil lierliu. The lottery way, on the general principles 01 Human nature, iuto Great Britain, where it took root and nourished. Tlie first English lottery was lor the repairing of harbors and fortifications along the coast. Tho lirst public drawing in England look place at the west door ot old St. Paul's Cathe dral in tlie pre-ence of a vast crowd. Queen Elizabeth, the most teusible and successful of English sovereigns, estab-, lished the lottery by royal edict, and 1 p aced it under tlie control of the Prime Minister and tho Chancellor of tho Ex-' cheqer. So nuccessful were its results thai it was contiuu-d as an accepted in-1 stitutl n for raising revenues down to the close of the tighteonih century. It was during this briliiau period that tlio bank ing system, nisur .nee, exchange, and , papsr money wue lirst introduced, and all, if not born 01, were undoubtedly cradled in, tlie lottery system. Tne greatest public institution in Lou- j don, or perhaps in the world, the Britisli Museum, was materially aided in its in-' ception by a lo tery. Xetuly 00,' 00 were thus contributed to this mugnilicent ob-' jectone hundred and thirty-live years ago. Meanwhile, the lottery had gained a firm foothold in France. Tlie mercurial Parisians took kindly to it. They dearly loved the excitement ot the drawings, while at the same time tlie government took care to devote tlie niuj r portions ot the funds thus raised to public purposes. At present, lotteries in L'.ancc are in full favor for charitable and arc purpji-es, und are regulated by government, a public of ficial being present at all drawings. Over forty lotteries have obtained tlie si'iiction of the French governnie I during the last decade. The lottery known as "Tho Cen tral Union of Decorative Arts" hitd a cap ital of 11,010,000 francs (nearly '.,lMyu). One lottery disposed of six hundred thou sand tickets in twenty dajs. The Alger ian National Lottery sold over a million of tickets per month for live months, and tlie lottery for tlio-Sjcielio des (Jens de Lotto jes boid over half that number at a higher price. In this country, as has been previously staled, lotteries nave always been popu lar, and until late years have been sanc tioned while regulated by law. Religion lias, oven in America, avuiled itself largely ot human natuie's tendency to the lottery. Churches, from Main to Louisiana, have been aided by lotteries. The Philadelphia Steeple Lottery was managed by no less 11 man, statesman and phil .nthropist, than Benjamin Franklin, und through iis agency tlie steeple of old Christ Church, Philadelphia, wa raised and its peal of bells secured. These Christ Church Bells are almost as well known and his orical in the Qua -er City as ate "Bow bells" in Londou tho whole pe.il weigli over nine thousand pounds, and a o very harmonious liter ally "music by the pound." They wero cast in London and brought over with groat care and large expense to Philadel phia. Tlie lottery, the funds of which procured these bells, was regarded by the go id men and .women at the time us u public benetlt. in New England a lottery was originated for thu purpose of raising funds to supply sailors and ' strangers with Bibles, and succeeded largely in accomplishing its oh ject. 'ihus a lottery became a Bible so ciety. Various Episcopal and Congrega tional churches at Newport and elsewli- re have been built with fuuds ruised by lot teries. Two of the most noted preachers of this country. Increaho and Cotton Mather, lived and uleu in nouses uuin oy loiieries, 1 and the Hev. Dr. Eliphalet Nott, of Union j College, has written the best, because most truthful, defense of the lottery sys tern. Hev.

But times liavo changed. There is a ' fashion in lotteries as in everything else, . and for a w hile at east lotteries have gone out of f.ishlou in most States of the Union, 1 though stock gambling (in which the j amounts risked are greater, and the ' chances for prizes are le s than in average lotteries, and in whiclt there is less "sys tem" than in even the wildest "lottery si'heme") nourishes to a degree hitherto unknown. In fact, the onlv lottery scheme of any mignitude now authorized in this country is that of the Louisiana State Lottery, which forms an important Dirt of the revenue of that State, and tho drawings of which take place under the supervision of two of the leading men of tlio South Generals Beauregard and Limy two gen tlemen whose very names are guarantees alike of good management and goodlaith. llic .Louisiana stale Lottery has been incorporated for some twenty years, with ftI1 ori;inHl pfttrj.up capital of 31.0 0, 0 , nm, (lurinK its twenty years of existence it has p,U(l out nn,ilJUS of ti0iu,s j,, prizes, and every prize once a awn has been fully and promptly rashod. Many hankers and merchants have been numbered among "the lucky ones," but fortune has often favored the poor and hard-working portion of tlio population. Thus, at a recent drawing of this lottery, a "combine" of twenty-twocar-drivers, on the Lombard Street Railroad, Philadel phia, drew and divided a prize of $15,0tO cash. But with the single exception of this Louisiana State Lottery, all lotteries, which once constituted so important and, on tho whole, profitable feturc of life in the United Stales, are pnvtieally wiped out-legally obliterated Xew York Sun day Mercury, Jan. 1.

The microscope 'ha- proved that thee diseases are contagious, and that they are due to the presence of living parasites in tlie lining membrane of the upper air pas. sages and etacliiati tubes. 'Ihe eminent seientl t-, Tyudall, Huxley and Beale en dorse this, ami tlu"e authorities cannot be disputed. The regul r method ol treat ing these diseases lias been to apply an Ir ritant remedy weekly, anil even' daily, and thus keenitur tlie delicate membr.tne I in a constant state of Irritation, allowing it no chance to hea', and as n natural con scquenco of such treatment not one per manent ere has ever been recorded. It is an ah-olute faet that these diseases can not be cured by an application nind- ofU'iier than once in two weeks, for the membrane must get a chance to heal be-1 fote an application Is repeated.
