HEALru-ExKRcrsE-Th frequency viii
which we have aivcrtet 70 the necessity OF exer
else in tho open air, as tho mode Of ProcarIn9
health, has been such that we should not agar
place the subject before our readers were II no
from the convction that cannot be too often urg
upon their notice. Tho heat Of the summer:
SON, md the shaP"css q OUT w'n,crs coo' urn
siblS iObe generally resisted. Tho person who
can >.;es he uuist secluson Of bis closet or his
drawinp.roou famed by the breczes during the
dog days, or warmed by the comfortable blaze o!
schocffui fire at Christmas tmc, is ready to think
acodition grcatsi! to his feelings precisely the
ona in which he should indulge. Hence it ART
ses that VIC sec moderate degree Of the appear
ance Of health without its activity, and full pro-
portion Of tho evidcnces Of strength coupled
with shortened duration Of life. By this fatal
but seductive state Of nerfiop, the animal powers
arc suffered To fall into disusc the nervous system
loses its cquiposc, and the muscular fibre IS made
20 become relaxed and tardy in its obedience to
tho dictates Of tho will Tho consequences is,
that these morbid and dcpraycd h1bits,if we may
use the expression, leads toa general disIrray Of
the vital functions and induce premature decay
and carly dissolution. People will tell us that
they arc perfectly well; they eat well, sleep well,
and look wcli but they walk el!!--can they
undergo fatigue, or, the contrary, docs not
tho slightest movement make them uncomfortable,
and would not IA days exercise on horseback al
most annihilatc them? For the evidences Of tho
benefits Of active exercise in comforting long life
and robust constitutions, VIC would refer 10 the
population Of Great Britain, where the contest is
not how much time can be loitcrcd away within
doors, but how large portion Of the twenty-four
hours be passed in the free air Of heaven, and
IN the pursuit Of blood stirring, notwithstanding
cmyloymcnts. To the Britona walk oil. many
miles is pleasant pastimc, and to pass the day
on horseback galloping over the country ai1er
the hogs or shooting the moors, is unspcnkn- 4
bly, delightful, whilst to the American descend !
ants Of the same stock, sauntcr Of n mile Or |
two is next thing to annihilation, and as tor un
dcrgOing the hardship of n 'sIap up chase or
passing the day from sun rise to sunset IN tram
ping over tho hills, it is downright scif-murdcr.
Il is in vain TO tell us that climate is different
from that Of Britain that summers are too hot,
md our winters too cold for exercise. IL the
summer be hot, the more reason OF tho morning
mr. to be out among tho fields when the dew drop
till Qittcrs on the fOwret, in the evening |
shcn the rays Of the sun have lost their power; {
" II the winters blast be rude and tho cold be
,inching, nothing is easier than to wrap our {
loaks around and laugh 1T the tempest howl. '
Look for a moment at those Of our country Il
ncn to whom tho mornings air IL familiar, and
Give cxcrtOn a constant habit, AMI soc with =
that indifference they meet the changes OF sea-
ons On their checks may be seen the rosy tint
health, and in their step the elastic tread Of n
lurdy manhood, instead of the wan and pald o.
by siognomy and sluggish dragging OF the limbs Z
nat distinguish those to whom the pillow IS a a.
orninr companion and the sofa the inscparabic e:
of noon-1ay. Not to exercise Is W
rob our being Vi its worth, and whiistwc live s
die daily. )"
