NOT GENERALLY KNOWN.
Relating to the Obi ervance of Wash
ington's Birthday.
In reading the eulogy by Hon. John
A. J. Creswell, a member of the
"United States Senate from the State
of Maryland, pronounced by him on
the life and character of Henry "Win
ter Davis, a member of Congress
from the same State, delivered in the
liall of the House of Representatives
at Washington, D. C, February 22,
1866, when referring to this day as
the birthday of General Washington,
and then of his lamented and sudden
death, will remember that he 3aid :
"The dreaded announcement of his
demise spread over the land like a
pestilence burdening the very air
with mourning and carrying inex
pressible sorrow to every household
and even heart. The course of leg
islation was stopped in mid career to
give expression to grief of Congress,
and bv resolution, approved January
6, 1800, the 22d day of February of
that year was devoted to National
humiliation and lamentation. This
- then as well a day of sorrow as a
Jay of rejoicing." See part 5, page
17-, Congressional Globe, first'ses
sion of the Thirty-ninth Congress of
the United States.
In "Hickey's Constitution of the
United States," sixth edition, pages
242 to 2G8, you will find a full ac
count of the action of Congress in re
lation to his death. On page 259 you
will find this resolution, as reported
from the joint committee of Mr.
Marshall (afterward Judge Marshall)
on December 30, 1799, which was
then unanimously adopted, to-wit:
Kesolved by the Senate and House
of Representatives of the United
Stales of America in Congress as
sembled. That it be recommended
to the people to assemble on the 22d
day of Fobruary next in such num
bers and manner as may be conven
ient publicly to testify their grief for
the death of General George Wash
ington by suitable eulogies, orations
and discourses or by public prayer;
and it is further
Resolved, That the President be
requested to issue a proclamation for
the purpose of carrying the foregoiug
resolutions into effect.
These resolutions were agreed to
by the Senate next day, and ap
proved by the President of the United
States (John Adams) January 6,
1800. You will also find these reso
lutions on page 87 of the Second
United States Statutes at Large.
Mr. Hickey adds that in conformity
with this recommendation the people
of every city, town, village and ham
let, whose numbers were swollen by
the neighboring country people, as
sembled and with deep devotion ren
dered their heartfelt tributes of af
fection for the memory of the Father
of His Country. This outpouring of
gratitude and affection of a nation of
free citizens has never been equaled
more nearly than by the spontaneous
and universal demonstration of this
national virtue on the occasion of the
visit of General Lafavette to the
United States in 1824. In Mr. David
Ridgely's "Annals of Annapolis,"
published by Cushing & Brothers in
1841, on page 225, he says: "The 22d
day of Fobruary, 1800, being the day
apjwinted by proclamation of the
President of the United States and of
the Governor of this State (Mary
land) as a day af mourning, humilia
tion and prayer, the same was ob
served in this city (Annapolis, Capi
tal of Maryland,) in the most public
and solemn manner as a just tribute
to the memory of the immortal Wash
ington. The day was ushered in by
a morning gun, and the colors were
suspended from the dome of the
State-house in mourning. At half
past ten o'clock the procession pro
ceeded from the State-house in the
following erder:
The Governor.
Ministers of the Gospel.
Executive.
Chancellors and Judges of the Gen
eral Court.
Officers of Government.
Professors of the Colleges.
Mayor and Corporation of the City.
Officers of Militia.
Infantry.
Citizens.
"During the procession minute
guns were fired, the bells toiling.
The services of the day were 'per
formed in St. Ann's Church, the ven
erable Episcopal Church of that city,
the Rev. Hieinbothen deliverine a
discourse from the following words : i
'It is appointed for all men once to1
die,' in which, it is said by one who
was present, the eminent virtues and
distinguished services of the de
ceased were portrayed in strong and
eloquent language.
"In the afternoon the Rev. Mr.
Roberta oKciate'd in the same church,
and addressed the congregation in an
eloquent and masterly discoarde,
from the following text: 'foiowse
not that there it a Prince an a great
man fallen thisftiy in Israel ?' "

This is the season most appropri
ate for a little serious reflection on
the subject of overcoats. Nothing
seems more simple than to adapt
clothing to the weather by the addi
tion of an overcoat, light or heavy,
as the occasion requires. It must
not, however, be forgotten that in
proportion as the garment superim
posed upon the ordinary clothes is
effective in producing a sense of
warmth it acts by arresting the
evaporation of warm vapor from the
body. This warm vapor continues
to rise through the ordinary clothing,
but it is prevented from escaping and
the clothes are saturated with it.
The generel effect is well enough
while the overcoat is kept on, but
the moment it is removed evapora
tion recommences, and the body is
placed in a "cooler" constructed on
the principle adopted when a damp
cloth is wrapped round a butter-dish,
the vapor passing off, abstracting
the heat, and leaving the contents of
the cooler refrigerated.
The point to make clear is that the
overcoat, let it be fashioned and
ventilated as it may, does not pre
vent the underclothing from being
saturated with moisture, but actually
tends to make the moisture accumu
late therein. This is proved by the
sense of genial warmth felt while the
overcoat is worn and the evidences
of perspiration easily perceived un
der the arms and at the sides of the
chest particularly, immediately after
the overcoat has been removed.
Moreover, we take off the overcoat
when we enter a warm house, and
precisely at the moment when mus
cular activity is suspended. A very
little consideration will suffice to
convince the common-sense thinker
that nothing can well be worse man
aged than this process, both as re
gards its nature and the time and con
ditions of its operation. It is opposed
to all the canons of health to allow
the clothing to become saturated with
perspiration and then to take off ex
ternal covering and suffer rapid cool
ing by evaporation, while, if it were
designed to do this at the worst pos
sible time, probably none worse
could be found then when muscular
exercise has been discontinued.
The suggestion we have to offer is,
that it would be far better policy to
wear only one coat at a time, and to
make whatever change may be nec
essary by removing a thin coat and
replacing it by a thicker one when
going out of doors, and the reverse
when coming in. If; instead of
wearing overcoats, people would
wear coats of different thicknesses,
according to the weather and condi
tions generally, they would avoid the
danger of cooling by evaporation;
the garments saturated with moist
ure would be removed and dry off
the body instead of on it. We be
lieve no inconsiderable proportion of
the "colds," attacks of lumbago, and
even more formidable results of what
are popularly called "chills," may
be traced to the practice of wearing
overcoats which arrest the ordinary
process of evaporation, cause the
clothing within to be saturated with
accumulated perspiration, and are
then removed, when rapid cooling
takes place. The avoidance of this
peril is to be attained by such
change of coats as the conditions
require. London Lancet.
Oul j-Half Alive.
There are hosts of men and women who, to
coin a phra-e, are only half all e. That is to
say, they inn e seldom if eer any appetite,
are nenons, weak, fidgetty and troubled by
nutubeilos small pains aud aches. In the
presence of vigorous, exuberant vitality they
seem mere pigmies. Sucn persons are usu
ally fond of frequently dosing themsehes,
swallowing in the course of a var enough
dnigs tosiock any apptliec.tr 'a shop of av
erage dimensions. Tills, i f course, defeats
instead of furthering the end in virw. viz! the
the recovery of health and vigor. Were iliey
to to seek it from an unf. tiling source of vital
ity. Hosteller's Stomach Biiters, how differ
ant would be their case. Then vigor would
return to their debilitated frames, the glow
of health to their wan cheeks, their trem
bling uncertain gait would grow firm and
elastic, appetite, that grandest of all sauces,
would gie a relish for the dally food, were
It eer so coarse, and refreshing sleep would
crown the tasks of the day.
