Ventilation Louvres

How do you stop cold air from attic vents from allowing cold air into the living area?

I have a continious ridge vent, soffit vents, and gable vents in the attic. The thing is with this house, the walls are not insulated. There is also a breathing space that runs from the attic to the basement on all sides. My fear is that cold air can come through the walls or electricial outlets when my natural gas furnace sucks air. I wonder if I could block the breathing space that runs from the attic to the basement in the winter?

1. Wow. You are worried about a draft in a house built like that? The furnace needs some source of air for proper combustion so try to figure out some way for the furnace to get that air whatever you do with the breathing space.
2. your house has to breathe i would insulate the attic floor and that should give you the results you want
