vail during the latter part of summer. To ac-
count for this fact, It will o My be necessary
to consider in the FIRST place, that the human
stomach, in common with the body generally
is at this season in state of langnor, and OF
course is less active in digesting tsacOntents
than during the cooler months and 10 the
second place, that animals at this hot season,
are also debilitated and feverish, and when
killed and brought to market. their flesh is
f1abby and unwholesome. Wherever / see
them, they are lolline out their tongues and
painting, and in vain seeking a cooler place.
Do, Messrs. Butchers, have little mercy
on them and US. Let them live tillcool wealth
er and .hey will be good for something. Ifyou
must continue flying about in your market
carts. instead of fresh meat bring us some good
sailed pork and beef, well packed down in
brine last winter, or some well smoked pork
hams, and few hanks of dried beef. With
these, and occasionally little sailed shad or
mackerel for a relish,together with plenty of
vegetables, can get along very well until the
middle Of next September. But stay here
comes another meat merchant and asks, with
an anxious look, "do you want any fresh meat
to-day" and on receiving an answer in the
negative, gives his horse cut with the whip,
and with a fallen countenance, hurries away
to pop the same question at the next house.
No wonder he is anxious to dispose of his load
as the thermometer is at 800, flies are plenty
and he knows as well as any one what the
lapse of a few hours may bring forth. ID.
