PORES OF THE HUMAN BODY.

By applying good microscope to the
skin It tho human body, multitude 81
small pores will be seen, through which
perspirstion is continually issuing. 1t IS
calculated that there are million of these
pores in every square inch, and 2,ol6,.
100000 in the who,s body oil middle
sized person. The naked body, exposed
to the rays Ct a burning sun, appears
, through micros cope to be SURROUNDED
, hold the tip of his finger at the distance
Of the 18th part of an inch from a looking
glass, and the surface Of the glass will
soon be dimmed by matter issuing from
the finger.
Many experiments have been made TO
ascertain the quantity spirabe mat
ter which is enitIed from the skin. Ii
is stated in the N. E. Encyclopedias, that
Mr.. Cruikshanks put his hand mo a
vessel closed at the wrist, and by keep
ing it there an hour, be collected 80
grains of liquid which had issued
through the pores OF the skin. On re-
pea,ing thu experiment IN he evening,
be collected l2 grains. The mean OF
these is 81 grains. Tsking Q grains
psr hour, and sopposing the hand 10 be
one -sixtieth par, of the surface ct the TO-
dy, the perspiratlon in "a hours would
amount to FIVE ponds three ounce. troy.
Sanciorius says 1ve-eighlhs OF all the all
nen,, Good and drink received BY the
mouth, is carried eff by perspiration.--
Dodart says seven-eIs hths. Others es
innate it al much le5s, making il about
two pounds per day. The quantity OF
sweat or perspirahie matter varies ac-.
cording to the climate, season of the year,
age, sex, STATE OF health, &c.
1t is by the peculiar smell which the
subs,ance emitted from the akin gives 10
each individual, that the dog can disco
yer his master, and even trace him to a
distance.

notwithstanding Mr.. Adam, was the


HIST to eiicit, in he Senate of The United
States the luminous report OF Alber,
Galisiin upon internal improvement;
notwithstanding his sentiments on tho
subject have been again and again plainly
and unequivocally expressed, yet some
OF lis enemies still charge him with
being an enemy to internal improve
ment. The real imperfections oil John
Quincy Adams ought to be fairly sx-
posed; and his Political and moral
principles thoroughly examined. But
Abuse can never be substituted for ar
gument, nor bare assertion received as
proof.
We have seen what bis opinion was
10 1907. Hear his own language in
1924. 81 thought that Congress pos
sessed the power OF approprlaling mo-
nsy TO such Improvement, and for au-
thorizing the works necessary for making
it; subject slwsys to the territorial
rights Of tho several states in or through
which ,se improvement !. to be made,
10 be secured by the consent OF their Le-
gislatures, and the property rights of IN
dividuals to be purchased or indemDi-
fed. | still hold the same opinions
and although highly respecting the pu-
rily of intention of those, who object On
constitutional grounds TO tbs exercise OF
this power, it is with heartfelt satisfac-
ton that perceive those objections gra-
dually yielding to the paramount lnte-
rest Of The general Weifare. Already
have appropriations oil money 10 great
objects OF internal Improvement been
freely made; and hope We shalllive to
sec the day, when ths only question of
our statesmen and patriots concerning
the authority OF Congress to improve,
BY public works essentially beneficial,
end beyond the means of less than ma
tional resources, the condition oil our
Common country will be, how it could
have ever been doubted.
Mr.. Adams has never been exclusive
ly devoted to any one particular national
interest. but as far as his past conduct is
illustrative of his sentiments he is
friend to the equal protection OF all our
great interests and useful pursurs.
Should candidate for the Presidency
express, on any occasion, Partially tor
the manufacturing, the commercial or
the agricultural interests OF tho nation, to
the prejudice Of either Of the others, or
encourage sectional views, or local jea-
lousies in any part of the Union, he
would forfeit the confidence Of an en-
lightened people. The President Of
the United States should be equally the
friend and protector Of the wole Ameri-
can family. In urging the claims OF
John Quincy Adams to the regard of
our fellow citizens, by plain statement
of facts, we are wholly uninfluenced by
private views or feelings, and We dis
claim any intention $50 gull those who
are nor acquainted with Public sentiment
beyond their immediate neighborheod."
Our only object is to promote the bes,
interests of our country, and secure the
happiness Of ten millions Of people.

Msforfune 10 the Greeks.-The
news Of the greatest interest is Of the
capture OF the island of Ipsara, by the
Turkish Captain Pachs. He left Nifty
lens for Ipsara, July I'd, and on the 50
began cannonade from his fourteen fri-
gates, which in s hours dismounted the
Grecisn batteries, andthc Turkish troops,
to the number of $4,000 landed. Tho
Greek, all retired TO strongly fortified
fort in The centre Of the island, which on
the following day was attacked by the
Turks. On the 5th, al noon, the fort
blew up, whether from design or &C Ct
dent is not known. There are several
accounts of this tragical event, which
vary in the particulars, but al agree that
there was an indiscriminale slaughter,
and nearly all the Greeks persisted.
Under the head Of Constsntinople, Ju-
ly l5, is given Turkish half-ofiicial ac-
count Of the taking Of Ipsara. The
Turks bad 1--WE ships of The line, six fri
gates, 10 corvetts, some smaller vessels,
besides transports. Tbs Captain Pacha

qusin,ed with the strength and situation
OF the Greeks, sc. and that the slau gb,su
OF the latter became SO great he gave or
ders to spare Don-com satants, and oven
offered reward fer every such one made
prisoner; but tie fury OF the troops could
no, be restrained. The Turks had

ton of the Greeks having blown them
selves up-s fortified cloister made a
desperate resistance.

FORGIVENESS,

Is there a man who, if he were TO
stand by the death-bed of his bitterest
enemy, and behold him enduring that
conflict which human nature must suf-
fer at the last, would not be inclined
TO stretch forth the hand of friendship.
TO utter the voice OF forgiveness, and
to wish for perfect reconciliation with
him before he left the world? Who is
there that when he beholds the remains
of his adversary deposited in the dust,
feels not, in that mnmanf-- Soma rnioni-
ings at the remembrance OF those past
animosities which mutually embittered
their life ?--s' There lies the man with
whom | contended SO long, silent and
mute forever He is fallen; and am
about to follow him. How poor Is
the advantage which 1 now enjoy?
Where are the fruits ct all our con-
tests In a short time we shall be
laid together; and no remembrance re-
main of either of us under the sun. How
many mistakes may there have been
between US ? Had not he his virtues and
good qualities as well as |? When
we shall both appear before the judg-
ment seat of God, shall be found in.
nocent and free of blame, for all the
enmity have borne TO him My
friends, let the anticipation of such SEN
timents serve now 10 correct the in
veteracy of prejudice, 10 cool the heat
Of anger, to allay the fierceuess of re-
sentiment. How unnatural is it for an
imosities so lasting TO possess the hearts
of mortal men, that nothing can extin-
guish them but the cold hand Of death
Is there not IA sufficient proportion Of
evils in the short span OF human life,
that we seek 10 increase their number
by rushing into unnecessary contests
with another? When a few suns
more have rolled over our heads,
friends and foes shall have retreated
together; and their love and their ha-
tired be equally buried. Let our few
days, then, be spent in peace. While
we are all journeying onward ,o
death, let US rather bear one another.
burdens, than harass one another by
the way. Let us smooth and cheer
the road as much as we can, rather
than fill the valley of our pilgrimage
with the hateful monuments ofour con.
tcntion and strife. Blair's Ser.

ain North America, as well as in
