AIR AND E.XERCISE.

There is a notion that air spols he complex
Ion. II is possible that an expo ire to all "ea-
theirs might do so, though il a 81 sy beau is to
be said to have a bad complexion, it is one we
are very much inclined TO be in love with. A
russetor apple has its beauty as well as peach
AT all events, spolt complexion of this sor, is
accompanied with none os he melancholy al
tending the bad compilations that arise from
late hours, and spleen, and plo6ding, and indo-
lence, and indigestion. Flesh air puts a wine
in the blood that lasts from morning 20 night,
and not merely for an hour or two after dinnar.
IL ladies would not Garry butter toa.t in their
cheeks, instead Of roses, they must shake the
blood IN their VEINS, tiil IL spins clear Cheer
fuiness itself helps TO make good blood; and air
and exercise make cbeerfuness. When it is
said that air spills the complexion, it is not
meant that breathing il does SO, but Exposure
to II. We are convinced it is altogether fall
lacy, and that nothing but constant exposure
to the extremes Of heat and cold has any such
effect. The not breathing the fresh air is con-
fessedly injurious; and this might be done
much o1tener than is supposed. People might
oftener throw up their windows, or admit the
air partially, and with effect sensible only to
the general feelings. We find, by repeated ex-
periments. that We can write better and longer
with The admission of air into our study. We

prefer large study TO small! one; and here III.

GOVERNOR VAN NESS.

| We perceive the Palladium gentleman ha
made an extract from Governor Van Ness ad
dress to the people Of Vermont. We hav,
not had the good fortune 10 see the valuabl,
document entire, nor have we even read the Pal
Iadium extract, beyond the sentence, where the
governor charges the Administration, with in
terfering, to prevent his election. On this point
we beg leave 10 put few questions 10 the gov
ernor.
What was the subject of the conferences, be-
tween your excellency and Mr.. Woodbury. Of
New Hampshire, during The visit of the latter
gentleman to Vermont, last summer! What
were the arguments used by MIR. Woodbury. TO
induce your excellency to follow his example,
in pretending to be friendly 10 the Adminislra-
ton till elected Did he propose to lend you
the portrait of Adams, which he had painted,
10 hang up IN his Office, and on which he used
TO bid his clients gaze with veneration! Did
your excellencys friends explicitly state to sew
ersl gentlemen, friendly to the Administration,
that you would pledge yourself, if elected
Senator Of the United States, in Mr.. Seymour's
place, to support the Administration; while you
threatened, ifnot elected, that you would op-
pose il? When the election drew near did
your excellency and your friends diligently cir
culate the report, that you were friendly 10 the
Administration; that you were prepared firmly
to support il; and that it was the wish Of the
President OF the United States, that YOU should
be elected in preference to Mr.. Seymour? Were
not such effectual pains taken to circulate this
most unfounded and ridiculous statement, that
the frie IDS Of the Administration in Vermont,
were obliged to seek information sewhere, to
satisfy themselves, as to Mr.. Seymour's stand
ing as friend to the Administration?
Finally, is not your excellency ashamed, uu-
der these circumstances: to talk of the inter.
ference OF the administration in your election,
and ought you not rather to be grateful, that, By
osing your election, yov have been prevented
rom exhibiting spectacle Of the perfdy, which
las rendered your neighbour MIR. Woodbury.,
he scorn Of honorable men Of all parties?
