And the Court does sentence him, Brevet Major
General David E. Twiggs, U. S. Army, " to be re-
primanded by tbe President of the United States."
II. Tbe proceedings of the General Court Martial
in tbe foregoing case have been duly submitted to
the Secretary of War, and the following are the
orders thereon :
Wast DxrABTKiMT, May 10, 1858.
The verdict of the Court Martial in the trial of
Major General Twiggs is approved. But, in con-
sideration of his distinguished services, and of the
unanimous recommendation of the Court, the sen-
tence is remitted. j
The record of the Court exhibits errors in tbe
proceedings, which it is proper to notice : 1st, ad
mitting for the defence evidenee clearly incompe-
tent and irrelevant; and 2d, sustaining an insnifi-
e'ent challenge to a member. A Court Martial
ough^ot to consider that it has any discretion
when^ne rule of the law is plain and positive.

III. The Court Martial, of which Brevet Major
General Thomas S. Jesup is President, is dissolved.
| IV. Brevet Major General David E. Twiggs will

of Texas. By order of the Secretary of War,

Science Auwerini Simple Question*
Why is rain wafer soft? Because it is impregnated
with earth and minerals
" Why is it more easy to wash with soft water than
with hard? Because soft water unites freely with
soap, and dissolves it instead of decomposing it, as
" water does.
y do wood ashes make hard water soft ? 1st.
ise tbe carbonic acid of wood ashes combines
with tbe sulphate of lime in tbe hard water, and
converts it into chalk. 2nd. Wood ashes convert
some of the soluble salts of water into insoluble, and
throw them down as a sediment by which the water
remains more pure.
Why hastraln water such an unpleasant smell
when it is collected in a raiu-tub or tank t Because
it is impregnated with decomposed organic matters
washed from the roofs, trees, or the casks in which
conectad, bibiHMIIiMWBMÍWMWMBÉHI
Why does water melt salt! Because very minute
particles of water insinuate themselves into the
pores of tbe salt by capillary attraction, aud farce
tbe crystals apart from each other.'
How does blowing hot foods make them cool f It
causes the air which had been heated by food to
ehadge more rapidly, and give place to fresh cold
air.
Why do ladies fan themselves in hot weather?
That fresh partióles of air may be brought in con
tact with their face by the action of the fan, and as
every fresh particle of air abaorbs soma heat from
the skia, this constant cfeAtige make them cool.
Does a fan cool the jW No, it makes the air hot-
ter, by imparting to itr.be heat of our face, but it
ocols our face by transferring its heat to the air.
Why is there always a strong draught through
tbe keyhole of o door? Because the Hir in the room
we occupy is warmer than the air in the hall, there-
fore, the air from the hall rushes through the ket-
bole into tbe room, and causes a draught.
Why is there always a stgrng draught under the

Loss Faokb.—What a sad mistake it is to sup-
pose that a man should be gloomy because he is
devout, as if misery were acceptable to God on its
own oceount, and happiness an offence against his
dignity. A modern writer of much pith and wis
dom of writing s«ys : i' There is a secret belief
amongst some men that God is displeased with
men's happiness, and so they sling about creation,

A good man w always a cheerful one. It is fit
that bad men should scowl, ahd look blue, and be
melancholy ; but he who has God's smile of appro-
bation upon liim should show its radiance.in his
countenance. Dr. Johnson said l'he never knew a
vallian in his life that was not on the whole an úu-
happy dog." And well he may be. But an hoiest

plain the reason of this. If the lower sash be open,
oold external air will rush freely into the room and
a great draught inward, but it ;he upper sash
be open, the heated air of the room will rush out,
and of coarse there will be less draught inward.
By which means is a room better ventilated—by
opening tbe upper or lower sash? A room is better
ventilated by opening the tipper sash, because the
hot, vitiated air, which always ascends towards the
ceiling, can osckpe more easily.
By which means is a hot room moro quickly cool-
ed—by opening the upper or lower sash? A hot
room is cooled more quickly by the lower sash, be-
canse tho cold air can enter more freely at the low-
er part of the room than at the upper. PI4
Why does the wind dry damp linen? Because dry

ed, and after its use, robust health the inevitable conse-
quence . Scrofula is another disease which is nearly akin
to consumption, indeed they go hand in hand, and few
will admit, even when much tainted with it, that they
are scrofulous, but whenever you see an unnaturally
clear skin, scrofula must lurk in the blood, and of neces-
sity show itself sooner or later. The effect of Wood-
man's Cherry Expectorant on scrofula, is most happy ;
there has never been known a confirmed case of tru
scrofula, but was cured in en incredibly short period by
its occasional use.
The peculiar propertiss of Woodman's Cherry Expec-
torant is inestimable in everv affection of the internal
organs-fin cases of Dropsy whioh nave come under its
influence the diuretic action of the kidney, and the dia-
phoretic action on the skin, we say the two acting bar*
monfously and vigorously, together, if almost incredible.
In affections of the spleen and the liver, in flatulency
and indigestion, and in acute and chronic inflammation
of the stomach, its effects are marvelous,
In softness, fiabiness and wasting of the flesh, without
any apparent diseases, it possesses the peculiar property
of depositing firm muscle and a generous amount or adi-
pose tissue, preventing that lankiness of the figure and
failing in of the cheeks, which indicate tlie approach of
advancing years, or the sear and yellow leaf, in short,
the free use of Woodman's Cherry Expectorant will give
a rotundity and plumpness to the general contour, which
the mont nourishing diet refuses to do.

so with very happy results, it relieving me in a few hours

ha us ling one of yours large bottles, her hair was restor-
ed to iuorginal beautiful brown color, snd had thick-
ened and become beautiful and glossy upon, and en-
tirely over the head; she continues to use It, not simp-
ly beeause of iu beautifying effects upon the hair, bat
because of Its healthful influence upon the head and
mind. Others of my family and friends are using your
Restorative, with the happiest effects; therefore, my
skepticism and doubt In reference to its character and

conLaily aad confidentially recommend its use by all
who would have their hair restored from white or gray
(by reason of sickness or age) to iU original color and
beauty, and by aU young persons who would have their
hair beautiful and glossy.
Very truly and gratefully yours,

which you gave me an order upon your agent ia De-
