1t is the fashion all over the United States, to talk about the brevity of human life, the in salubrity of this climate, S<c, When we come to inquire, there is as great an average of longevity in this country, perhaps, as in any other section of the world. The few annuity offices in the United States, make a very small profit, calculating as the most of them do, or have done, upon the English estimate of the probable duration of human life. They have, it is likely, within the few last years, been acting upon different principle. Our pen sion law, forty-six years after the revolution, showed that one fifth of the whole army which fought in that revolution were living, though they had been exposed to the chances of ra- pid dimanition by poverty, exposure, and the bad habits acquired in camp. And when we recollect, that many of the officers, from various causes, did not avail themselves of the law, we may safely say that one sixth of that gallant band survived. Out of 200, ,000 men, who first and last were under arms in that contest, 24,000 applied for pensions No par ticular instance of great longevity, in this State, occurs to us; but in Louisiana, although jnterspersed with sea-marsh, swamps, ponds, lagoons, and bayous, and subject to the peri odical inundations of several large rivers, the average length of human life, particularly in the French parishes, is as great as in the valleys of Switzerland. On the Teche, the La Fourche, and other streams, it is no un- common sight to see grandfathers and some times great grand sires, mingling in the same cotillon with their children's children.

UH AS pleasure in informing his friends and M the public, that he has now made such arrangements with a frst-ratc ss ssNorthern House." as will enable him to furnish any book now in use, either foreign or domestic, on Me very ie7uest terms Orders are made up for the north weekly. Persons wishing to replenish their Libraries, will find it to their interest to call at the

 Schools, Academies, and Colleges furnished at the lowest possible prices.
 Orders respectfully solicited.
 l have so repeatedly reminded my friends and the public, of the necessity of their lend ing liberal support to the establishment, that were to continue the call-without an a. biology, it would seem to carry tone of con- plaint with it. This is far from my intention; it would be treating generous and liberal public with great injustice and ingrattude. The support has been beyond my expccta- tions but et most it necessarily must be in- considerable in town of the age and limited population of Tuscaloosa.
 believe all will admit that Book and Sta tionary establishment is an important acqui- sitlon to our town, and permanent benefit to the country-and such will permit me again to remark, that its present success, until our public institutions arc further advanced, re- quires all the support that the liberal and well wishing can bestow.

Strict Construction.-We have been told an anecdote relating to this subject, which must be hugely pleasing to our brethren ofthe South, and we, therefore, record it for their especial qualification, During the late session of the legislature of this state-in the midst of our extreme cold weather, when the ther- mometer was several degrees below zero the presiding officer of one of it's branches, in- sisted upon keeping the door of the room wide open, because the Constitution provides that the Assembly shall sit with open doors It was in vain that those members who sat near the door, pleaded that the principles of General Welfare might be allowed to shut it, as they were actually 'being frozen;' his Honor was memorable, while the tears stream : ing from his own eyes, told how much above all personal consideration was his devotion to the constitution. It was at length suggested to him that as the constitution provided they should sit with open doors, and the room in which they were had but one door, it was evil dent that they were sitting in an unconstitu- tional room, and of course, that all the pro- Ceedings in such room must be unconstitu- tional. This supposition was not little pug zling to our liberal interpreter, inasmuch as the City of Jefferson afforded not another room which would hold them; so that he at last consented the door should be shut, provided he should not be quoted as yielding the prin- ciple, but only as submitting to imperious ne- ccssity!--S Louis Times.
