Take care Of your feet.-The cir.
cumstances in which wet feet, and cold
feet, are most apt to cause disease, are
where the person remains inactive /;
and where consequently there is Moth
ing to counterbalance the unequal flow
Of blood, which then takes place to-
wards the Internal parts: for it is wei!
known. that person in ordinary health,
may walk about or work in the open air,
with wet feet, for hours together, with
out injury, provided he put on dry
stockings and shoes Immediately on
coming home. 1t is therefore, not the
mere state of wetness, that causes the
evil, but the check to perspiraton, and
the unequal distribution of blood, to
which the accompanying GOODNESS gives
rise.-COmbs's Physiology applied to
Health.
A GENEROUS ACT.--A gentleman in
New Orleans, not remarkable for his lib
erality, had tenant who occupied a
building of his for some years. During
the recent pressure the tenant called up
on his landlord, and said that he was un-
able then to pay his rent for the preced-
ing month, and reminded him that he had
punctually paid him his rent (S24
month"; for seven years. The landlord
was memorable, and gave him fifteen
days to find house. Before the fifteen
days had expired the tenant called and
paid his rent-the landlord handed him
piece of paper saying there is your re-
ceipt.' Upon the expiration ofthe fifteen
days the tenant again called and inform
ed the landlord that he had obtained o
house and was moving. The landlord
replied, you are fool. Sir, you are fool!
go look at your receipt; you will find
that it is full for twelve months The
tenant had not examined it, went home
in great surprise, and when he found it,
10 his still greater establishment, it was
bill of sale Of the whole property, worth
at least fourteen thousand dollars -

The Cincinnati Daily Gazette of
late date ssys-Mr. George Porter,
respectable cabinet-maker of this City,
has invented an improvement ia bed
steads, which we deem of great imoor-
lance to the public in general. The
Improvement consists in putting them
up with iron fastenings, simply drop.
ping down the rail wedges to a complete
joint. There is no mortice, lemons, or
screws, and no harbor for bed.bugs.-
A child may set them up, or take them

The Opinion of an Ola Whig.-
"Let me exbort and conjure you never
to suffer an INVASION OF YOUR
POLITICAL CONSTITUTION,
however minute the instance may ap-
pear, to pass by, without determined,
persevering resistance. One precedent
creates ano,her-they soon accumulate,
and constitute law. What yesterday
was fact, to-day is doctrine. Exam.
Piles are supposed to justify the most
dangerous measures, and when they do
not suit exactly, the defect is supplied
by analogy. Be assured that the laws
which protect our civil rights, grow out
of the Constitution, and must fall or
flourish with it--this is not the cause of
faction, or party-or of any individual,
but the common interest Of every man."
These are words of Junius great
est Wing writer ofthe last century
who wrote as it were with an iron pen,
pointed with diamond-and who
made the Tories Of England, from the
monarch on the throne, 10 the veriest
minion of the palace, tremble.
MACKLIN'S ADVICE TO HIS SON.
II have often told you that every man
must be the MAKER or MARRER oil his
own fortune. Irepeat the doctrine he
who depends upon his incessant industry
and integrity, depends upon patrons of
the noblest and most exalted kind, these
are the creators of fortune and fame, the
founders of families, and can never disap-
point or desert you.-They control all
