GRIEF.

Among the aiiuent, there is sometimes luxuty
Of grief, which is altogether unknown to the poor.
There is such thing as pampered sorrow, whit b.
the heart chershes without being aware Of its own
selfish enjoy menf. lndolen, perhaps, and called 10.
the discharge of no duties, the mglrners give them-
selves up to the indulgence Of feelings, which are.
known to be natural, and which they conceive Of as
amiablr, till the remembrance Of the loss sustained
becomes evidently fainter and fainter in mind still
surrounded by the comforts and blessings OF life
and at last, the afflicted return to their usual avoca
tons, without having undergone much real, soul
searching and heart humhling distress. But in h.
abodes OF poverty, there is room, no leisure for
such indulgence. On the very day that deaih
smites dear object, the living called BY neces.
sity, not TO lie down and weep, but TO rise up and
work. The daily meal must be set out by thelr
own hands, although there is in The house one colo
mouth to be fed no more; and in the midst OF occn-
paons needlul Tor them who survive, must prepa
rations be made for returning decehtly dusl 10 dust.
This is real sorrow and suffering; but although
sharp, the soul is framed to sustan +: H: and sigh
ing and sobbing, weeping and waling, groans heav-
ed in wilful impiety ou,cries to cruel Heaven, and
the delirious tearing oil harhe are not the shows
of grief, which exhibits the earihep floors,
and beneath the smoky raiters of The houses OF ,he
poor. The great and eternal law of death is exc
cuted there in an awful silence and the survivors
60, each his way, upon his own special duty, which
is marked out TO him, and which he must perform,
or perhaps he and the family utterly perish.
Under such circumstances, the discharge Of duty
is painful indeed but it is also consong. If the
heart then knoweth its own bitterness, so knoweh
it also the sweet infusion Of resigned faith. If the
father of the house die the fire De still light
ed the floor swept, the board spread the cradle
rocked that holds one, since morn, an orphan. Not
otherwise will God feed the poor But the hand n
connected with The heart; /; and 10th must
themselves 10 procure peace.

we'd on the Monument of Friend
IF ever lot was prosperously cast,
If ever life was like the leng,hen'd flow
of some sweet music, sweetness to the last,
Twas his, who, mourn'd by many, sleeps below.
The sunny temper, bright where all is strife,
The simple heart that mocks at worldly wiless
Light wit that plays along the calm Of life,
And stirs lis languid surface into smiles.
Pure charity that comes not in shower,
Sudden and loud expressing what it feeds,
But like the dew, with gradual silent power,
Felt in the bloom it leaves along the meads
The happy grateful spirit that improves.
And brightens every gift by fortune given,
That wander where it will with those it loves.
Makes every place home, and home heaven.
All these were his-Oh thou who read'st this stone,
When for thyself, thy children, to the sky
Thou humby prayest, ask this boon alone,
That ye, like him may live, like him may die.

From The Medical Intelligencfr.
FLANNEL.

From review OF the different substances worn
next the skin, it would appear that wool has greatly
the advantage over the others. Flannel, by lis gen
tie stimulous the skin, has the beneficial effect
of keeping the pores in state the most iayorablS
to perspiration. In flannel, the discharge by per.
spiration proceeds uniformly; but not SO in linen.
when soled by the moisture OF the skin. The diff
ferent effects OF flannel and linen particularly
percepble during brisk exercise. When the body
is covered with the former, though peispiraticn be
necessarily increased the perspired matter passes
off through flannel into the atmosphere or cir, and
the skin remains dry and warm. Ii the same ex-
ercse be taken in linen shirts, perspiration, as in
the former case, is indeed also increased, but the
perspired natter instead of being dispersed into the
atmosphere, remains upon the linen and not only
clogs the pores but gives disagTeeable sensation
Flannel has another advantage which merits at
tention. AS it does not retain the hnmors dscharg-
ed from the skin, people who perspre profusely
in flannel shirts will not easily catch cold on gong
into the open air. But the is not the case 10
respect Of linen Shirts which, by retaining the per-
spired matter, will occasion sensation ot chillness,
often followed by violent cold and sometimes even
fatal effects.
| The prejudces of people have been much excl.
ted both in favor of flannel and agains ii. 1t has
been objected, that flannel worn next the skin occa
sions weakness, by too much increasing perspira
ton but this objection seems not TO be founded n
truth, since perspiration scarcely ever can be i'm
moderate or hurtful, long the skin remains dry,
! Flannel, when first used, is often apt to an
uneasy sensation, but this soon goes off. In those
who wear flannel, the skin, on being much rubbed,
will become red and inHamed; but We ought not
on that account infer that flannel produces cutane-
Gus eruption; on the contrary BY preserving the
pores open, and increasing perspraon, it tends
greatly to remove the OF cutaneous eruptons,
which arise chiefly from an irregular state OF that
discharge through the pores OF The skin.
The prejudice against the use OF flannel next the
skin seems to be owing, in great measure to the ef.
lects which ensue, from not changing II sufficiently
often but this objection is to be imputed TO the
wearer not to the flannel ITSELF
1t must be acknowledged, that the advantages
above mentioned strongly recommend the use of
gannel as a preservative Of health, particularly 10
those who are exposed to all kinds OF weather. 1t
has the additional advantage of being suitable to all
seasons and of compensating deficiency of upper
dress. Extraordinary beneficial effects have been
experienced from flannel in variety OF cases. In
gouty, and particularly, rheumatic habits, it has op
Grated with singular advantage. In obstinate coughs.
where symptoms of consumption were apparent, it
has proved highly sersiceahle; and upon the whole,
il merits more general and extensive application
than it has ever yet obtained.
