Fe;s..ag Of Fsnales duriag Public Hor-
sa;p.-It frequently happens, especially
during the warn season, thatfemales ere
sssa lsinting during divine service on the
Lords day, and at public meetings on 9th
Or occasions. This is generally owing to
q want Of psre air, coupled with the MUIR
dsrous practice Of tight lactng. Lord's
day before last, young lady apparently
5aiatsd At the meeting which she attend
ed. She was assisted into the porch and
seated in chair near the door. lmme-
diately several females gathered around
her, one Of them with smelling bottle in
her hand, 40 as to obstruct, almost en-
tirely, the free access Of air. A more ef-
fesc;ous remedy then smelling bottles, in
zach case, would be to loosen the tight
cords about the body, which prevent the
free play ofthe lungs, and place the indi-
vidusl in q condition to breathe tho pure
air. Few females, It is believed, would
ever faint At public meetings, were the
criminal practice oflight lacing, entirely
abandoned. d.-[Vermont Telegraph.

1 snd Aanisersary Of the Social chb..--
The Social Club celebrated their sscopd
anniversary on Tuesday evening last
An address was delivered in the Baptist
Meeting House, by Mr.. GEO. M. RAN
DALI, which was a happy effort, highly
creditable to the orator and gratifying to
all who heard it. The exercises began
with very excellent and appropriate pray
er by the Rev. Mr.. WEIGH, and were in
terspersed with music by choir of sing
ers under the direction Of Mr.. J. J. Lyon,
a gentleman ofsuperior vocal powers and
excellen taste in musick. The singing
was excellent and highly .creditable to
the choir and their leader. In conclus-
ion, the Rev. Mr.. Paine addressed the
throne Of grace in comprehensive and
peculiarly appropriate prayer.
The Society, after the services at the
Meeting House, repaired to Coles Ho-
tel, where they pnrtook of a suppef, which
did no less honor to Col. Cole, than pleas
ure 10 the palate of those who partook Of
1t.
A number oftoasts were drank at the
table aiter the cloth was removed, and
through the whole doings Of the occasion,
there was nothing to mar the pleasures Of
the festival.
We select the following toasts
Liberty and Education-Thc support
crs Of each other-opr country has felt
the benefit ofthem.
The citizens of this town.-They have
literally supported this Society may
their posterity abundantly reap the fruits
oft.
Our Country-her interests and her
glory.
George Washington.-His name shall
always be remembered with venorlRion by
the American youth.
F'ranklin.-He has set us good mark; ;
let VS. try to hit it.
Diffusion Of Knowledge.-The high
pedestal on which are elevated the moral
hopes of the world.
Kings. Tho objects Of pity-may they
at length be exalted to farmers, merchants
and mechanics.
The Social Club--While they increase
in numbers may they individually increase
in knowledge and virtue.
Revolutionary Debates. Affir-
native Enlightened men in all countries; /;
the Negative-Kings and their menials |;
the Arbiters-the People ; the Subject
the rights Of man;-May the arguments
be we'll received and produce a decision
on the merits Of cases. -.
Slanderers.-Iniamy to immortalize
their names and tar and feathers to EN-
balm their bodies.
Poland.-May the spirit Of her Kos
ciusko lead her to battle in a righteous
cause, and guide her to triumph and free
dom.

tI- -
Gorsrnor Ftnner and the presses Senate.
-Sye hope when tho freemen Of this
State shall be called npon TO decide who
shall be Governor and who shall be Sena-
tors, to sec Nh ousting Of theirs" honors," T"
which will contribute in no small degree
70 the advantage ofthe State, ss we'll ~
yteiievc the conscript fathers" from .
Whigh responsibility" which they are, in
oNr opinion, but lily qualified 70 bold.
The Senate have enjoyed the honor Of
their stations long enodgh TO compensatc
for eli the trouble, which they Sxperienc-
ed in attaining them, and they ought now
to be permitted 10 retire with their load Of
honors and feast upon their fame, till they
can boast Of some other qualification than
.leyalsy 70 the General" or till they can
sing some other tuus, than +" "hussa for
Jackson" When they came into Office
they filed the places Of ah enlightened
body, and we hope they may 90 out to
make room for another. Their reign has
been long enough, and the people should
now permit them to leave their arduous
duties and in retirement from public life,
to persue avocations more ccngenial with
their talegts and better suited to their lit
erary and scientific habits.
With regard to the Governor, he hes
enjoyed the honors and emolusnents Of
his Office long enough TO satisfy the am
bitioa Of the most sanguinc aspirant after
Executive distinction, and ys think he
should also bc permitted to retire, and
Kke Cincinnatus and Washington pres
ont to the world sh example Of dignity
and greatness, in ALT simplicity Of ru-
raj life and private occupations.
The period is fast approaching, when
q decision of the important question Of
revolution and reformation in our state
government, must be made ; and it be-
hovcs the people to weigh the merits Of
candidates and be prepared to support the
deserving. IF It is really impossible to
remove the Governor, for the sake Of con-
sistency, let us establish him monarch
for life-and withdraw ourselves from the
national Government. Let it be known
that there is no family in Rhode Island
capable Of performing tho srduous duties
ola Governor, except the family Of Fen
ner, in which It has continued 20 long
and forthwith let US settle the succession
on his issue, that we may be provided with
a Governor, when tho present one shall
be no more.
The prox published in tho Star, is the
prox Of republicans, aud from the distin'
guished talonts Of the gentlemen, wht
compose It, we feel no hesitation in say
ing that It will be supported by eli, wh'
have the good Of the State At heart. Blu
the opponents Of these distinguished mel
have partizans, active partizaps, and fror
this fac: The friends ofrepublicanism ma
SEQ the necessity Of union and exertion.-
