Wanted Moral Heroism in the Churches. This is what the Church wants at the present time: a grand revival of moral heroism, and enthusiastic zeal that shall i elude all professing dis ciples of Christ in this, the greatest mora! reform ever inaugurated. The Chun-h should arise in her moral power and demand the sacri fice of old party prejudices, which at the present time are the most formi dable obstacles in the way; but the active faith that triumphs over sel fish proclivities, and the zeal in spired by the ability to overcome mountains ot difficulty, win cause them to disappear like dew before the rising sun, so that, just as soon us wc are ready to put forth the nec essary efforts, this grand result will surely follow. Lack of courage to exercise our moral convictions is so very natural and common, that it requires hero ism and real Christian zeal to do so; but ardent, intelligent enthusiasm will combat this cowardice when the exigency for its exercise arises, for there is a dominant sentiment and feeling in most minds, which is al ways ready to respond to the urgent call for conscientious efforts and sac rifice for the true interests of the people, or when the best i,nethods become fully known, and when this power is once awakened it will be a whirlwind of energy, before which all opposition will flee and disappear like chaff before a driving storm.

In' its I nciliicncj . In the Baltimore Sun wc timl ref erence to a paper in the Maryland Medical . Journal on Consumption or lather on Breathing Exercises ng a eun.tivo measure iu Consiinipton. From this w ji.niivi uiuit nil" eA- it her in.. a. ereisc ol singing is v preventive. and even a cure of the disease. Tho efficacy of tho remedy lies in the practice of abdominal broathing. The author sus thai the prcvo lent notion that women arc more liable to consumption thau tho rougher sex, is an error, and that the disease is more common among themon. He also combats the idea that fresh air is of particular use in con sumption, and contends that a hii in nl atmosphere docs not promote the disease. According to his the ory, it is a mere matter of breath ing, and that because women in breathing exercise the apex of tho lungs more than the men, therefore they are more exempt from its rav ages. He counsels deep breathing. We suppose there is something in the theory; but all sigiiH fail iri dry weather, and no general statement will meet every ease. As Dr. Kings bury would say the exception proves the rule. A proper exercise of the lungs may ward off the disease, and may even cure it when other condi tions arc favorable. The exercise is generally taken in the open air, and hence the notion that fresh air is helpful. We recall two cases. At the be ginning of the war, a young gentle man who had innumerable homor hagee. sometimes ten a day, and who was looking death squarely in the face, went to the iield and bo- came cured. After the war he was a civil engineer and was on his foot in the open air a great deal, lie died two months ago, but net from consumption. One of his associates, and ours also, likewise had the consumption, and fearing to enlist as a private wrote to his uncle who was one of the M ilitary Board having the power to make appointments, asking for a commission as Lieutenant, so that he might bo exempt from the hard ships of a private's life. His iinclo refused. He would not bestow an office on a nephew. He entered the service as a lii'i- vat- leoame Capfaih of bis eoni ind Colonel. In 1MJ4, wounus ami honor;, lie had his choice tio- panv. Major covered with he married. tween a commission as Brigadier General in the Army of Virginia and the command, as Colonel, of Fort Caswell. He was then apparently entirely ured of his disease, as hard an a ightwood knot, but still without lesh. His bride could l.c near him at Caswell, and he took tho com- maml. I lie war en.leil, ami lcading a scdentaiv lite, lie died shortly ifterwasds of consumption. T ramp ing over irginia exercised his ungs; cooped up in ( asvvel!, bis liseasc returned. Gentle exerciso if the lungs in the open air. we be ieve, is a good remedy, but it should ml lie too violent.
