| question he asked after his return to reason
was, whether his sons had brought in tht
beetle and wedges. He appeared to b.
wholly unconscious of the time that had ell
apsed from the commencement ofhis deliri-
nm. His sons, apprehensive that any ex-
PLANTATION might induce a return of the dis
case. simply replied that they had been
unable TO find them. He Immediately
rose from his bed, went into the field where
he had been at work number of years be-
fore, and found the wedges, and the rings
Of tho beetle where he had left them, the
beetle itself having moHldcred away. Dnr-
ing his delirium his mind had not been oc-
cppied with those subjects with which it
was conversant in health.
Mrs. Smith, an intelligent ladys belong
ing to respectable family in N. York,
some years ago undertook piece of fine
needle work. She devoted her time to il
almost constantly, for number Of days
Before she had accomplished il, she be-
came suddenly delirious. In this state,
without experiencing any abatement Of her
disease, she continued for about seven
years, when her reason was suddenly re-
stored. One of the first questions she ask
ed alter her reason returned, related 10 her
needle work. 1t is a remarkable fact, that
during the long continuance Of her deliri-
UNI, she said nothing, so far as was recol-
lected, about her needle work, nor con-
corning any such subjects MS usually occu-
pied her attention when in health.
A lady in New England, of a respecta-
bile family, was for a considerable period
subject to paroxysms of delirium. These
paroxysms came ON simultaneously and
after continuing an indefinite time, went
off as suddenly, leaving her mind perfectly
rational. 1t oftcn happened, that when
she was engaged in rational and interest
ing conversation, she would stop short IN
the midst of it, and become in a moment
entirely delirions and commence CONVEX
sation on some other subject, not having
the rcm0test connection with the proceed
ing one, nor would she advert TO that DUR
ing her delirium. When she became RAJ
tional again, she would pursue the same
conversation in which shc had been en-
gagged during the lucid interval, beginning
where she had left of. To such a degree
was this carried that she would complete
an diminishing story or sentence or word.
When her next delirious paroxysm came
on, she would continue the conversation
which she had been pursuing in herprece-
ding paroxysms so that she appeared as
a person might be supposed to be who had
two souls, each occasionally dormant, ana
occasionally active, and utterly ignorant OF
what the other was doing.

porrER's FIELD in NEw-YoRk.


Extract of "a Letter, dated Nesv- York, Ang. "a.
Those of your readers who are intimate
from the description with the Pere Ia
Chaise,'' of Paris--its, seventy acres OF
cemetery. and its various monuments, e.
rected over 15O, 900 Of earthed bodies. will
readily conceive the contrast between it
and the Potter's Field Of New York-the
bIrying place for strangers. The one is
modelled BY taste and ornamented by aft
fection--the receptacle of the literati and
fashionable-the earthly bourne of beauty
and goodness, as well as the mortal goal of
the humber classes. The other level
square, unadorned by trees or shrubbery,
and destitute of monuments pit for the
INDECENT and friendless stranger-fOr the
death released occupants oft the alms-house
and hospitals, a lone spot, unvisited but by
the sexton inthe discharge ofhis grave du-
ties, or by some jealous disciple of Escu-
slapius, for the purpose of disinterring re-
cent ledger to aid his skill in the practical
part of the science to which he is devoted.
The present Potter's Field situated four
miles from the centre of the city, contains
from fifteen to eighteen acres, beneath the
surface of which 10000 remnants of NOR
tally have been deposited within the last
seven years. Anterior to that time other
spots we're devoted to the same purpose,
one ofwhich is now fashionable prone
made. Since the prevalence of the chole-
ra, the interments for many weeks in this
depository have averaged more than one
hundred daily, and a constant scene of pre-
pairing and closing the last abodes Of NOR
tality has been presented. Deep trenches
have been dug into which bodies have been
lowered-one has been laid upon the 9TH
or till the last has found its resting place
within three fect of the surface. One Of
these trenches contains 1000 bodies. O.
YER the whole field the eye can discover
hardly dozen stones, and these are erect
ed over the remains of those whose rela-
tiyes have paid pittance for christian
grave, beyond those spots where multi
,udes are Unfortunately consigned to
their kindred dust.-Fortland Ado.

CLIMATE OF PALESTINE.

Under this head we include the usual
properties ofthe atmosphere which min
ister to health and vegetation, for it has
been justly remarked that Syria Pales-
tine) has three climates. The SUBMITS Of
Libanus, for instance, covered with snow,

pecially those which stretch along the line
Of the coast, are constantly subjected to
heat, accompanied with great humidity !;
while tho adjoining plains ofthe desert are
scorched by the rays of burning SUM-.
The seasons and productions, of course, I'M
dergo corresponding variation. In the.
mountains the months of spring and sum-
mer very nearly coincide with those in the
southern parts of Europe and the winter,
which lasts from November till March, Is
sharp and rigorous. No year passes with
out snow, which often covers the surface
of the ground to the depth ofseveral feet,
during many weeks. The spring and si,-
tumn are agreeable, and the summer by no
means oppressive. But in the plains, on
the other hand, as soon as the sun has
passed the equator, sudden transition
takes place to AN ovcrpowcring heat,
which continues till October. To COM
pensate for this, however, the winter is so
temperate that orange-trees, dates, banan-
mas, and other delicate fruits, grow in the
open field. Hence, we need hardly OBJ
serve that journey of few hours carries
tho traveller through succession of sea-
sons. and allows him a choice of climate
varying from the mild temperature OF
France, to the blood-hea: of India, or the
pinching cold of Russia.
The winds Of Palestine, as in all coun-
tries which approach the tropics. are peri
odical, and governed in no small degree by
the course Of the sun. About the autumn
nal equinox, the northwest begins to blow
with frequency and strength. It renders
the air dry, clear, and sharp; and il is re-
markable that on the sea-coast it causes
the headache, like the northeast wind in
Egypt. We may further observe, that il
usually blows three days in succession, like
the south and southeast at the other cqui-
nox. 1t continues to prevail till Novem-
Der. that is, about fifty days, when it is fol
lowed by tho west and southwest, called by
the Arabs "the fathers Of rain" In
March arise the pernicious winds from the
southern quarter, with the same circum.
stances as in Egypt; but they become
| feebler as we advance towards the north
and are much more suPportable in the
mountains than in the low country. Theil
duration at each return, varies from TWEEN
ty-four hours to three days. The easterly
winds, which come next in order, continu.
till June. when they are commonly sue
cesded by an inconstant breeze from TIN
north. At this season Ito Wind shift

stGte.-SOme years ago Farmer Of tar
character, who resided in an interior town
in New England, sold his farm with an in
tention of purchasing another in different
town. His mind was naturally of mel
ancholy cast. Shortly after the sale Of
his farm, he was induced to believe that
he had sold it for less than its value. This
persuasion brought on dissatisfaction and
evidently considerable degree Of melan-
choly. In this situation, one Of his neigh
bors engaged him to enclose a lot of land,
with a post and rail fence, which he was TO
commence making the next day. Al the
! time appointed he went into the field and
began with beetle and wedges 10 split
the timber out of which the posts and rails
were TO be prepared. On finishing his
davis work he put his beetle and wedges
INTO hollow tree and went home. Two
of his sons had been 10 work through the
day in a distant part Of the same field. On
his return he directed them to get up early
the next mornilss, to assist HMM making
