By an ob servance of the instructions herein contained, the feeble, the ner vously delicate, even to the most shattered constitution, may acquire the greatest amount of physical happiness, and reach in health the full period of life allotted to man. " How we should live—what eat, what drink, what shun, To reach in health fall threescore years and ten." These interesting little volumes, although bearing upon subjects of very delicate import, as their titles imply, will be found of immea surable and general utility, for they tell of matters every living crea ture able to understani ought to know, but which information in these enlightened times, except that quality promulgated through questionable channels, is at a very terrible discount. In the exposition hereby offered of the till now hidden truths of nature, of human disappointments and their ways of relief, it is not contended that every reader shall become his or her own physician any more than their own lawyer, but it is insisted upon that we should know the simple principles of our owu organization, the laws whereby our existence and the issue thereof in their several healthy states depend, the duties that are expected of us in our individual capacities in the family circle, and the terms on which the health and happiness of the present and future race of mankind have to rely. By such knowledge, and which is herein faithfully imparted, health will be found to be in our own keeping, and happiness within the attainment of all ; by the availment hereof in fulfilling our duty to ourselves, we secure the like advantages on our offspring to follow, and finally by the cultivation of our faculties, which is in consistent with degenerate health, the mind as well as the body may be exalted to the summit of perfection, as best becomes the highest of God's creations. The author's justification for this seeming eulogy of his own writ ings, and the avowal of their integrity of purpose, must be measured by their perusal—his accredited qualifications guarantee that the topics broached involve his legitimate st ud y and p ursuit.

L EICESTER' AND BEDFORD RAILWAY. Scripholders' Registration-office, 63, Meorgate-street. Many of the Scripholders in this railway, who are of opinion that it cannot, in the present state of railway and Government affairs, be carried out with advantage to the Proprietors, have instructed me to take measures for stopping,.the further progress of the Bill in Parlia ment, and for putting an end to the enormous expenses which are now being incurred, and with that view a PETITION has been pre pared to the HOUSE of LORDS for the REJECTION of the BILL, which will LIE for SIGNATURE at this office, between the hours of Ten and Four o'clock daily, until SATURDAY, the 27th instant, ani also at the following places, viz.:— Leicester—Bell Hotel Derby—Bell Hotel Nottingham—White Lion Hotel Leeds—White Horse Hotel Bradford—Talbot Hotel Huddersfield—George Hotel Halifax—Swan Hotel Manchester—White Bear, Piccadilly Liverpool—Mr. Lacy, Bold-street Birmingham—Hen and Chickens Glasgow—John Miller, Esq., 37, West George•street Edinburgh—James Pringle, Esq , 79, Princes-street. The price of Shares, now that the Bill has passed the Committee of the House of Commons, affords no ground to hope that the market will be improved if the Bill should eventually pass. All parties in terested, who concur in this opinion, will therefore lose no time in signing the Petition, to put an end to the ruinous responsibility which will attend the registration of their shares, and the carrying out of the project.

We lament to have to confirm the sad intelligence which we then gave. We have been unceasing in our inquiries and in endeavours: to procure the most correct and trustworthy information, and , ' • we regret to say that in every case where the plant has ap- • proached maturity, and where artificial means to force the • plant have not been resorted to, the disease of last year has manifested itself. We have this morning communications.: from Ballymartle, as well as from Middleton and Carrigtwo- • hill, mentioning the appearance of the blight in those dis- • tricts. In our own immediate vicinity, in the southern districts especially, the disease has, beyond all question, ex- • hibited itself. We could enumerate several places where the: crop has become affected, but the simple statement of tivx fact is sufficient. —Cork Examiner.

FRIGHTFUL AND FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE GRE IAT WESTERN RAILWAY.—On Friday morning an accident of a most de plorable character, which has resulted in the death of an exeel lent servant of the company, happened near the terminus of the G rent Western Railway, at Paddington. It appears that the deceased, J 'ohn. Vaten, was a painter in the service of the company, and was al aout thirty or forty years of age. He was engaged at his work on F Dino carriages at the time of the occurrence, and it seems he was r ouch afflicted with deafness, so that the signals were not very re adily heard by him ; and while thus occupied one of the trains cam ,e up, and before he could get out of the way he was knocked dow is, and the wheels of the carriages passed over his legs and arms, which were severely fractured. He was inanietVately conveyed 19 St. Gorge's smite, where he died in about two boom MR. W. BRENT, JUN., TO MISS ROSAS. " Buenos Ayres, February 1, 1846. " My dear Mannelita,—l herewith send a letter for your father. This letter has been my occupation on many Sabbaths ; and I have not visited the house of God on those days. But I feel and know that I have been employed in the work of our Lord and Master. May God bless this my work. " I have kept no copy of it ; I have not time. I ask of you, dear Manuelita, to make me a copy of it, in your own hand-writing, if you have time. What a pleasure it would be to me to preserve this letter to your father in the hand-writing of Manuelita. But I know how much you are occupied, and I know full well the aid you give to your father, while he is so seriously engaged in affairs of state. If you should not have time, ask your father to have a copy made for me. May God bless you, and pour down upon you his choicest blessings, is the ardent prayer of truly your affectionate friend, "W. BRENT, jun. " To Miss Manuela de Rosas y Excurra." MISS ROSAS TO SIR. W. BRENT, JUN. " La Encarnacion en Palermo de San Benito, February 11, 1846. "My very esteemed Sir,—l have had great pleasure in delivering to papa the esteemed letter you sent to me for him. It contains luminous and benificent principles of truth and virtue ; and a just and gracious God will bless this your work of charity and of love for the liberty and happiness of the Americans. " Papa esteems it as an affectionate and noble . testi mony of the interest you take in the welfare of the Ar gentine Confederation, and of the fervour with which you profess the religious and patriotic princples which elevate and honour the United States, your happy country. He replies to you to-day also, with peculiar heartfelt satisfaction. " As regards myself, I have perused with tenderness.' and emotion your important letter, which raises the mind towards our Lord God, the Supreme Author of all good and of all happiness, and places under the auspices of his omnipotence the destinies of my country and of America. " Agreeably to your wishes, which I regard as a fresh token of affection and distinction, I forward to you for the present a copy, authenticated by me, of your beauti ful and interesting production, reserving to myself for more tranquil times, when papa succeeds in obtaining the repose of private life which he long since so ardently desires, to send yen a copy in my own hand writing of your abovementioned letter. The day when I can ac complish it will be a happy one for me. " Meanwhile I offer to you the expression of my ac. knowledgment, and of the distinguished consideration with which I am your very affectionate and obedient servant, " MANUELLA ROSAS Y EXCURRA. " Mr. William Brent, jun., Chargo d'Affaires of the United States. " The letter from Mr. Brent to General Rosas, alluded to in the preceding, is too lengthy for insertion in our columns, nor is it necessary for our object, which is simply to illustrate the character of one of the principal actors in the affairs of the River Plate. It is sufficient to say that the object of the letter is to show the efficacy of public prayer and fasting in producing national de liverances, which doctrine the writer supports by various quotations from Scripture, and instances drawn from the experience of the United States; and to recommend the setting apart of a day for that purpose in Buenos Ayres, which he does in the following words:— " I ask, then, Sir, from you, as the head of this nation, that places so much confidence in your Excellency, that you will recommend a day to be set apart for humilia tion and prayer, to be observed by all who shall be thus religiously inclined ; in order that they may offer, at one and the same time, their united vows and adora tions to Almighty God , on the solemn 'occasion pro duced by the war, in which he has been pleased to ' permit the injustice of two foreign nations to involve the nations living on La Plata. "In this, my friend, as on all occasions, let us obey the command of Him, who says, Psalms, xxxvii. 5, ' Commit thy way unto the Lord ; trust also in him ; and he shall bring it to pass.' . "But let all this procedure be done in charity. By excess of power the angels fell by excess of know• ledge man lost his high estate. But of charity there is no excess. Nor angel nor man ever came into peril by charity. " Your friend, " W. BRENT, jun. " Buenos Ayres, Dec. 14, 1845." The reply of General Rosas is as follows : GENERAL ROSAS TO MR. W. BRENT, JUN. "La Encarnacion en Palermo de San Benito, Feb. 11, 1846. "My esteemed Friend,—The letter you have addressed to me has produced a lively impression in my mind, from the affectionate terms in which it is conceived, and the benevolent design it has in view, as well as from the grateful recollections it awakens, inasmuch as it asso ciates-reflection upon the decrees of our being with the most profound interest for the welfare of my country and of the American cause. " Our Lord God who has created the world by his Divine word and Omnipotence, has given to nations rights and liberty. His adorable providence graciously watcheth in order that the injustice of the strong shall not prevail over the reason of the weak, nor disturb the harmonious concert which his infinite wisdom has es tablished from the beginning of time. " The origin of all truth, and the source of happiness for the human race, is to be found in Divine revelation. The political and physical history of the world is a suc • cessive and constant corroboration of the truth of the Sacred Scriptures, which is handed down from age to age. Political and moral philosophy would be led away into confusion, without the ineffable light of faith and the fervour of Christian charity. "You have sought in this unerring guide appropriate considerations and salutary precepts in order to arrive at a result worthy of a people venerating religion and loving liberty and independence, who struggle with faith and courage to preserve that great blessing of Providence, without which they cannot live or prosper among the nations of the earth. " I recall with pleasure and satisfaction our delightful interview on the night of the 17th of June; and, con sidering the profound interest with which you regard American affairs, affected by an unparalleled event in these republics of La Plata, I conceive all the intensity with which you meditated upon these subjects, raising your spirit towards God. " Fruit of this intellectual concentration—origin of the truth which is formed in us by the ineffable goodness of God—are the important reflections you present to me, and which, with the most profound gratitude, I in the highest degree esteem. " Fully concurring in your ideas, in which I find per fect harmony with my own and with the sentiments of my heart, I have the gratification to state to you that the governments and people of the Argentine Confede ration have always addressed, and do not cease to offer up their humble and Christian supplications and prayers, ' that the Lord our God may vouchsafe, in his infinite goodness, to continue the visible protection he extends to them in the just struggle they maintain for their liberty and independence. Agreeably to a regulation and con stant practice, during the period of my administration, the ministers of the altar in the holy sacrifice and in their prayers invariably invoke the protection of the Most High in favour of the republic. In their sermons and pious exhortations they implore with a glowing love of country the continuance of the blessings of God towards a people who combat against the slavery and desolation with which they are threatened by the foreigner and the impious and cruel faction of ruthless Unitarians, who have learned nothing nor forgotten anything in the re peated discomfitures with which Divine Providence has chastised their impiety, their treachery, and their cruelties. The people in the Christian exercises, in the novenas, rogations, and processions, which are f re q uentl y practised, with all the splendour of divine worship, im plore with faith and hope the protection of the Almighty. To 'his constancy in praying to and blessing the Lord . God, I ascribe, and have always ascribed, both the victories which have crowned the national arms and the admirable fortitude of the country in resisting the strongest attacks of the foreigner. " On different memorable occasions of national glory the Government has consecrated the trophies to the author of every triumph, and directed religious demon strations to be made in order to solemnise the great events of the country. In our annals you will find a series of documents to this purport, with which your religious and enlightened mind will sympathise. " And, indeed, sir, in these times of difficuities and trials, with which the infinitely just God has been pleased to test our fidelity to the oath of independence which we have taken before his altars, and on the book of truth and salvation, much doth it behove the in habitants of the republic humbly to offer up to Heaven the fervent tribute of their thanksgiving, inasmuch as it has granted to them splendid and ill ustrious victories, and that faithful perseverance and firmness of will and action which presents the Confederation inaccessible to the ferocious treacheries which have been the scourge of other countries—strong from the expression of the public voice and the justice of its cause—and possessed of claims on the sympathies of Ai neaica and of the friends of freedom in both hemispher es. " In moments of public consternation in other coun tries the' goodness of Divine Provide na3 has been made ... visible, at the humble a.nd faithful" prayers of the afflicted ; and I deeply venerate the .e:Eamples you re call, and which are so much connectxd with the glori ous deeds of the United States. Those signal blessings of God speak to the understanding, s .nd to the heart, and will stimulate the lively and it icessant religious fervour of the country, and of the mini sters of the Lord, to continue their prayers and supplicat ions in th Hita blished form, grateful in the eyes and not to cease to bless him, and tribute to him or, f the Mostgh, humble thanksgiving for the state of ti and iing of t he supe future erior to the di ffi culties, glorious, full of vigo ur, promise. " In fact , rength and con -act, blessings of God and the at Ist purpose and centration of wills for a patriotic an&Y. cils of the con duty, the wisdom displayed in the c oum federate governments, the subordii mum and glory of of th the national armies, the fidelity 'and ent..NY people, and the favourable circu ms t a aces of a lk. ad w h i ch,e although invaded and beleaguered 'by powerful , enemies, JUNE 22, 1846. PRICE SD. possesses in its position efficient elements of glorious resistance, and in the fertility and abundance of its soil sufficient resources to relieve it from all apprehension of extreme calamities. " Yes: humble and faithful prayer, agreeable to the high designs and precepts of God, is certainly most ex cellent in the history of civil and religious institutions; and there is nothing more becoming Christian people, and in consonance with revealed truths, than gratitude for the blessing received —thanksgiving to the supreme author of all good. " In these facts and reflections you will find that the nraver and supplication which you love and piously venerate, are practised throughout the repub lic, both in sits capitals' and in the towns of its_vast rural districts, in the military encampments as well as in the posts and forts situated on the frontiers of the desert ; and that the present occasion is a very appropriate one for the humble gratitude of the country for the infinite bles sings with which the Almighty God favours it, to be continued to be ardently expressed with faith and hope in the success of its just defence, in the midst of which it preserves its energy an d i ts h onour unsu lli e d, re ligiously fulfilling the oath of national independence de clared on the 9th July, 1816, before God and the uni verse, in the meritorious city of San Miguel del Tucu man. Its illustrious founders are, like the great Madi son, among the mighty dead ; only one, but a very dis tinguished one, of those venerable patriots, is still living ; but the spirit of all animates and guides the Argentines. This is a blessing, a work of the Providence of God, wherein is discovered the perfect adorable image of the merciful Father of the People. " And here I think the canticle of our rogations is applicable, ' Thou shalt go out with pleasure, and be received with joy ; hills shall skip, and thou shalt be heard with delight. Confess the Lord, fol - he is good ;' also the precept of the Gospel whic h recommends humble privacy in prayer, in supplication, and in fasting. " The history of my country offers to consideration events which it is gratifying in me to recall, es they bear relation to your reflections and to the pious prac tice's which I have stated are observed in the Republic. " The repulse of the two strong British armaments which attacked Buenos Ayres in 1806 and 1807 is to be ascribed to a special favour of Divine Providence, through the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary, mother of Good, invoked by General Liniers, and by the people of Buenos Ayres, as is the custom at present in our pray ers, supplications, and pious exerciser. " In the triumph of General Belgrano over a powerful Spanish army in Tucuman, a like blessing of.the Al mighty was repeated through the intercession of the Blessed Virgin, under the appellation of our Lady of Mercy, to whose devotion that illustrious general was particularly attached. " The trophies of all those victories have been humbly laid down before the tabernacle of the Lord. " I myself, at different periods of my public life, have acknowledged and revered the visible protection of God towards the republic, as well then as in the present cir cumstances.l "It is from a deep sense of humble gratitude for those blessings that I have placed at the foot of the altars of the Most High in the churches of San Miguel del Monte ' Azul de San Serapio Martir, and in the holy cathedral church of Buenos Ayres, the trophies obtained in the expeditions of the years 1833 and 1834, to the deserts of the south, against the Indians ; and in the festivals of the church in honour of the Blessed Virgin, under the appellation of our Lady of Mercy and of the glorious St. Martin, patron of this city, the valuable and hono rific medal awarded to me by the Legislature, and which I do not wear on my breast, is dedicated by me to adorn 'the divine image of our Lady of Mercy, which is venerated in the church of this name in this city, and that of our holy patron. " To the same origin are to be ascribed the memorable victories of the army of Orientals and Argentines, under the command of the illustrious General Manuel Oribe, President of the Oriental State, and of the distinguished Generals Urquiza, Echague, Pacheco, and others, as well as the glorious deeds of which you have been a witness at a more recent period. " Tkese and several other facts, the relation of which would be too lengthy here, ought to convince us not only that the reverent prayers and supplications, as esta blished and practised in the country, offered up to the Lord our God, have been graciously heard by his infinite goodness and providence, but also that we are bound to tribute to him cordial and incessant thanksgiving for his divine protection, and to testify our thorough confi dence in the propitious continuance of his unspeakable blessings. " Behold here, my dear friend, how my ideas and sentiments coincide with yours, and hoe-your Christian and generous desires are fulfilled beforehand, and the divine and salutary precept on which yon found them is venerated. " I feel that my country and the friends of religion, of justice, and of liberty, will highly appreciate the letter you have written in such solemn moments. For my part I will always regard it with a preferent and heart felt esteem ; and I will hand it down as a pious and throughly American monument of a distinguished friend who has the glory of having grown grey in the honourable and faithful service of the glorious inde pendence and happy advancement of the United States. " I have the highest pleasure in reiterating to you the distinguished consideration and esteem with which I am your affectionate servant and friend. "JUAN M. DE ROSAS. " Wm.

There was a grand review of all the troops of the garrison. The King set out at five o'clock this morning for the Loo, where the Princess's birthday is to be kept with great splendour. There is to be a magnificent falcon hunt in the course of the day, and fireworks in the evening in front of the palace. There is a considerable concourse of strangers of distinction at the Loo, to be present at the falcon hunt. The Duke and Duchess of Leeds arrived yesterday from London. We are assured, that since the King's return, Baron Van Grotestein, intendent of the Royal Theatre, has been instructed to request Mademoiselle Rachel, when she passes through this place, on her way from Belgium to England, to act a few times in the Royal Theatre here. UTRECHT, JUNE 30.—Our journals are filled with detailed descriptions of the files given by the students to celebrate the 210th anniversary of the foundation of our university. The Procession representing the entry of Philip 11., Prince of Spain, into Utrecht, October 30, 1549.—This procession or masquerade had been got up with the greatest care. All the persons concerned were in the costume of that time, and the dresses of the re-" presentatives of the many historical characters, which were very splendid, had a most brilliant effect. Among them were Philip 11., William of Orange, Duke Alba, Maximilian of Burgundy, Albert Van Egmont, Bishop of Utrecht, and many of the most remarkable characters of that age. The weather being extremely fine the concourse of persons to witness these very interesting files was very great, and all will long remember with pleasure the scenes they have enjoyed on this occasion.

The Indioateur of Bordeaux has opened a subscrip tion in behalf of a heroine whose history is Oils related by the journal above-mentioned :—" There,hag been staying at Bordeaux, for several days past, 9. 4 , poor woman, already advanced in age, who has passesi her winter days in receiving assistance from some poor people, and i n the cold and wet nights slept is granges or stables, for want of means to procure a better lodging. Catherine Rohmer was born at Belmar in 1782. her father was a sergeant, and her mother followed the camp. At the siege of Cal abria she saw her father killed, and at the battle of Fleurus a cannon-ball carried off the head of her mother. In 1802, Catherine Rohmar married Fran cois Girard, the drum major of the 62d half-brigade. A.sutler, like her mother, she followed the division of General Donnadieu, was present at the taking of Saragossa, entered with the d ivision in Porl.ugal, and afterwards returned to Barcelona. At this epoch she had already eight sons -all following her rerm . e . nt. From Barcelona she went to Austria with the division of General Charriere, and received a lance wound at the battle of Wagram. She was present at the taking of Vienna, and also at the battles of Glogkau, Lutzen, and Bautzen ; accompanied General Rapp to D aniztc, stayed a short time at Dresden, and from thence passed several months in garrison at Naples. Ever ready to support the fatigues of war and expose her life in attending to the wounded, she returned again to Spain, and was present at the taking of Girona, where her husband was decorated. On this occasion she acted as a soldier herself, and taking up a musket fought against the enemy, who for a moment seemed likely to be victorious. Attached to the expedition tent against Russia, she went to Warsaw, Cracow, and even as far as Moscow. In the retreat, Catherine Rohmer crossed. with the first division, the bridge of the Beresina, and v. as counted among the 25 men who alone remained of the four battalions of 1,000 men each who entered Russia. At Courbevoie, near Paris, her regiment was reorganised. She took part in the en counters of Chalons, Troyes, Bar-sur-Aube, and Brienne, and was at Fontainbleau when Napoleon. abdi cated. With her husband she set out to follow the _Em peror to the island of Elba, and had then ten sons in the army. She returned to Paris, and lastly was present at the battle of Waterloo. In 1815, her husband was appointed adjutant in the artillery. In 1823, she fol lowed Girard to Spain, where he was killed by a mus ket shot between Barcelona and Gracia. She returned alone to France, and married Antony Varin, a sergeant major, accompanied the latter to Algeria, and was pre.. sent at the taking of Algiers, Bona, Mascara, Oran, and Constantine.

EXPOSURE TO THE :;LlN.—There are few points which seem less generally understood, or more clearly proved, than the fact, that exposure to the sun, without exercise sufficient to create free perspiration, will produce illness; and that the (same) exposure to the sun, with sufficient exercise, will not produce illness. Let any man sleep in the sun, he will awake perspiring and very ill—perhaps he will die.

Ha BEGGING PETITION.—On Friday afternoon, a man , si a g t u lngress Abbey, ting tla G t r t e h e e nh b i e t ar h e, , with j ohu s Gibbs, a farmer, at Aylesford, had, since April last, lost four valuable horses and three cows, estimated at the value of 951. and upwards, and that he would be totally ruined and like wise his family, unless aided by the benevolent in the western part of of the county of Kent. It, however, happened that Mr. Harmer had only a few minutes previously read a paragraph in the Maidstone Gazette, cautioning the public against being im posed on by this individual, and stating that the signatures to the petition were forgeries. He, theref rial, oie whereupon , told the man h e should detain him and his memo f e llow set off at full speed from the front of the house to wards the river, and would doubtless have escaped, had not Mr. Harmer raised an alarm to some people who were making hay in the Park, when some of the females raft and got over the Park fence, seized and held him securely until some of Mr. Ilarmer's servants came up and took him into custody. On being conveyed before the Rev. Mr. Renouard, a neighbouring justice, th e man ad mitted that the memorial was a fabrication, and that his name, instead of being John Gibbs, was William Miles. Mr. Renouard committed him for examination to the lock-up at Dartford, and he will, no doubt, be convicted and punished as a rogue and vagabond. Amongst the stgnatures recom• men ding the petitioner were the Rev. E. G. Marsh, Vi car of Aylesford ; the Rev. W. Valiance, Lady Maria Finch, the Rev. C. R., Sir J. 11. Horley, Ashenden and Son, Colons Best, Edward Wickham, the Rev. J. Shepherd, and 2104 sixty other individuals. ---'-) I
