Consumptions.- In the Obituary list Of last week,
we have, says the New York Advocate, II deaths
from consumption. The slow but sure ravsges OF
this disease should lead to proper caution, for
though the disease be in measure hereditary, yer
it is frequently produced by imprudence, aud the
majority of victims are women. Nothing is more
valuable in precautionary way, than keeping the
feet dry and warm: yet such are the sacrifices to
appearances, that thin shoes and stockings appear
to be the order Of the day.

approves OF it, and has written to the Governor,
questng him to obtain a suspension until the opin-
ion of the British government can be ascertaned."
