the year, the advantage would soon be
manifest Unfortunately, we are too
much governed by prejudice in all our
common maxims of health, and place
too much confidence in the whims of
valetudinarians. There is 90 way of
maintaining a naturally good constitu-
ton, like breathing the air as it comes,
winter and summer; but whenever a
person attempts TO be very careful
about exposures, he may begin to look
out for the first symptoms of some
chronic malady. Laborers, however
exposed, either in mire or water, rare
ly suffer from those affections of lungs
and liver, which are the constant tor
mentors Of those who are forever doing
something to keep themselves from be-
ing sick. Fortunately, there has been
no one disease prevalent the past month,
and if the mildDess of the weather is
any criterion, we may hupe for general
health in the month of July.

Agreeably to notice previously eiven. an
extraordinary Meeting of the Auxiliary Bible
Society of this county was held at Worcester
the 18th inst. for the purpose of meeting a
Delegation from the American Bible Socie-
ty.
The President and Vice-President heing
absent, his Excellency Levi Lincoln was in.
vited to take the chair. The Delegation
having been introduced to the officer. OF tho
Society and the gentlemen present, and the
necessary arrangements having been made. a:
twoto clock T. NJ. public meeting was held
at the Rev. DR.. Bancroft's church, for the
purpose of receiving such computations as
might be made by the gentlemen comp osino
the Delegation.
The Moderator called the meeting to order
by briefly adverting to the occasion of its he.
ing called at the present time :-expressed
his deep sense of the Importance of the object
of Bible Societies, and his conviction of the
great good which had resulted from the mast
operations: and concluded by inviting the
attention of the audience to the communica.
tons which should be made by the gentlemen
who came there as Delegates from the Ma

addressed successfully by the Rev. Messrs

1t may be proper to state, that the commu-
nications made by the Delegation were in The
highest degree interesting, and appeared 10
produce deep and solemn impression on the

difieren. parts of the county retired from the

From the Democratic Press

The Marats. Within few days two
sons of the late King of Naples, Acbil-
les and Napoleon Murat, made, at the
Prothonotary's office of the Court Of
Common Pleas of this couety, the ne
cessary declaration of their intention,
preparatory to their becoming citizens
of the United States. We believe that
both those gentlemen intend to settle in
Florida. They are the first members
of the Bonaparte family, who have Off
cially recorded their intention to be-
come citizens of the United States. We
do not recollect that any of the illustri-
Gus exiles from Franco, or any part OF
the continent of Europe, who have TAX
en- refuge from the political troubles Of
those countries, have recently taken
any steps TO evince a wish to incorpo-
rate themselves with the American Fam
lily. 1t is pretty generally known, that
in this city, in 1893, Talleyrand, took
the oath of allegiance TO the United
States, and renowned all Kings, Primo
es, Potentates and Powers.

HEALTH OF JUNE

The past month has been both healthy
and agreeable. A warm sun and gen.
tie showers invariably modify diseases,
and when the atmosphere is kept at an
uniform temperature, although it be a
high one. there is less sickness, even
10 unhealthy situations, than when the
degrees of heat are constantly varying
People too often imagine there is dan
ger of exposing themselves TO the
evening air Of summer, but this IS in
general a very unphilosophicai mistake ;
the more fully the body is exposed TO
this pure tad invigoratiug element, the
more healthy is the individual. IGhow-
ever, the atmosphere be too humid,
precautionary measures are necessary.
II there is as much exposure of the
body as sound and uninterrupted health
always requires, il would be exceeding
ly difficult to take cold. Most of the
eastern nations have been 10 the habit,
from time immemorial, of sleeping upon
their house-tops; yet cold is scarcely
known, in the modern acceptaton of
the word, even on the banks of the
Nile.
Were people more in the habit of
admitting the air TO circulate freely in
their sleeping rooms, at all seasons Of

lions have been introduced into these
treaties. The KaDzas are to pay for all
horses or other property stolen or taken
by them from the white people since
the year 1915, and the Osages are 10
like manner to pay for similar depreda-
tions committed by them since the year
1903. The Indians are also 10 pay for
all future injuries of the same kind,
which may be annually stopped out Of
their annuities, on making proof to the
agents of the value of the property
taken. The country west of Missouri
and Arkansas is appropriated TO the use
of the Kansas and Osages, and of the
other Indians now within The limits Of
this State, none of whom are to settle
within twenty leagues of our boundary.
Thus these important treaties have been
concluded, by virtue of which the beau
tifnl tract Of country on the western
border of this State, will be laid open to
the settlement of the white people, and
the whole State is to be freed from the
nuisance of an Indian population"

GALLAPoLlS, \oH1o;l JUNE 4.
A very large she wolf had been doing a
deal Of mischief in Ohio township, in this
county, several years, and her cunning was
such that she had always escaped the vigil
lance Of the best hunters-by whom she was
commonly called C Old Hollow FOot,' from
the remarkable size and shape Of her paw
Her young opes had generally been found out
and destroyed, but it seemed as if the settle
ment should never get rid Of the old one.
On the 81 oil May last, Messrs. John Brum-
field, Gabriel Long and David Spurlock got
on her track, and, after long and toilsome
search, followed her to her den, on the side of
a hill, where they soon ascertained that she
had young ones. Upon examining the en-
trance, they found it long and narrow, so that
it was quite difficult for a large man to creep
in. However, our intrepid backwoodsmen
were not to be easily deferred from their pur-
pose, and John Brumfeld resolved to go in and
shoot her, while Gabriel Long held long
pole, to which was tied torch, for the pur-
pose oflighting the den. John BIumGeld went
in accordingly, but after proceeding two or
three rods, he found himself so tightly wedged
between the rocks, that if the Wolf had rush
ed him, he would have been unable to defend
himself, and indeed, he had with him no
weapon but his rifle. In this position, and
without seeing the animal distinctly, he fired
on her three times, having 10 go out each
time to load his gun. His dog rushed in be-
fore he could enter the fourth time, and, al
though the Wolf was badly wounded, furi-
Gus battle commenced between them. Gabriel
Long having crept in, got hold of the Wolf by
the paws, dragged her out of the hole, and
threw her down the hill, when John Brum-
field, who stood in readiness, shot her dead on
the spot. She had several whelps.

PRINTING

The process of StereOtyping books is an art
OF comparatively recent invention, and has
| been practised In America but short time.-
About two years since, Foundry was estab-
| lished in this city by Messrs. T. II, CARTER
Co. which has sent forth several works exc
cuted ID handsome style ; they have lately
completed the stereotype plates Of Scntf's Fam
aty BILE, for Messrs. Armstrong & Co. This
work is comprised in six royal 8vo. volumes,
IN all 1850 pages, about six times as much as
is contained in both the Old and New Tesla
ment, and cost nearly $4,000 dollars. 1t is
believed to be the largest work that has ever
been submitted to the process of stereotyping,
IN tnls or any other country; and, from the
specimens exhibited, it appears to be execut-
ed in very neat and accurate manner, high
ly creditable to the Foundry. The edition is
stefeotyped from the London edition publish
ed since the death of the author, and contains
all the marginal references, as well az the 9TH
er late corrections of the author, and is a com.
ptete work of the kind. The establishment of
this Foundry in Boston will be regarded as
highly desirable by all who are interested in
the success of literary enterprise it NAV be
expected to have favorable influence. in in
creasing the number of valuable works which
will be published in this place, in raising the
standard of printing, and Of affordng employ

prizes. The public should afford its smile all
