In the Spartan which arrived yesterday IN
% DAYS from Lisbon, came passengers jose
JOAQUIN Ramas Zuzarte, Portuguese consul
general for Baltimore; and Diego Maria Cal
lard. Portuguese consul. general for New-or-
leans. The Spartan it will be recollected car
ried out Gen. Dearborn, our minister 70 foI'u-
gal, and suite-We learn that he was favoraoiy
received, and Immediately proceeded to Cih'
ira.
The "New England Farmer" publish
ed at Boston, lately prescribed Elder Julce
as effectual against Shippers in cheese.
The experiment was tried IN dairy IN
Vermont on several cracked cheeses, and
perfectly succeeded.
From, Hare's Vie1V of the Structure, F"ne'
tions, and Disorders OF the Stomach;
1t was we'll observed by the late Dr.
Saunders that we are made guttons from
the cradle by the oficiousness OF our nuf-
ses. a child's health is disordered from
being over fed. 1t cries and complains
from the effects and with view TO ST.
lence it, more food is given; SO that the
evil is increased instead OF remedied, ana
the capacity OF the stomach gradually ex
tended far beyond the bounds OF nature:
Both the quantity and quality OF our 1000
should be proportioned 10 our habits OF
bodily exercise. When we have active
exercise in the open air, We may with I'M
nuni,v eat hearty DINER, taking care, e.
ven then, TO leave off before the appetite
is palled but on days when persons OF
W eak digestion do not go out OF doors, and
especially when the mind has not been en-
ergetically occupied, it would be well 10
abstain altogether from solid animal food,
and satisfy themselves with simple farina-
ceous matters, it, the composition OF which
great care should be taken that eggs are as
sparingIy used as possible. Nothing is a
greater blundeS than that eggs are eligible

They never assimiIate with the contents
of disordered stomach, but partly coag--
ulate, and form various cruJI'ies; and
partly generate noXious vapour> which,
under its real character OF sulphurated by
drogen, rises from the stomach into the
mouth. The coloring material OF The yolk
of an egg is sulphur, which combining
with the watery contents OF TIE stomach,
forms the vapour alluded to. 1t is the sui
phur naturally contained IN an egg which
furnishes silver spoon; IT IS the sui phu-
rated hydrogen of an impure atmosphere.
which furnishes silver in general. Altho'

rise from undue induIgenoies, | wish also
to impress the disadvantages anu lmpru'

conceiving that they should never be more
than four hours without the accession OF
some easy kind Of TODD and that, even IN

by far too long.
Among the selections from the English
papers. received at New York bv the late
arrivals, we find the mention OF an att-mpt
10 assassnate the King of Sweden. Intel
)igence of this circumstance was received
at Hamburg on the Cd August, and Is thus
related -
The King was proceeding on his tour
to Norway, and travelling in an open car
rage. when, within few miles OF Chris
tiana a man of decent appearance, and
who. from his bearing rife, at first sight
was supposed to be sportsman, boldly
placed himself on the side of the road, le-
yelled his piece and fired at the King,
whom he however missed the ball having
lodged itself in the back CUSHION of the
carriage. The King rapidly alghted, in
order to rush upod the assassin; but the
latter, aware of his having missed his de-
sign, had already ceased TO live, by cut
tag his throat with cutlass he wore.
The origin and further particulars of this
event are unknown, indeed, il only trans
PRED here through the messenger ordered
to carry the Intelligence thereof to the
Crown Prince. who IS now travelling up
ON the Continent. Ball. Am.
