Mr.. Cambell While your Journal

upon which it has borne rather lightly, in
my view, considering the magnitude of

It's true, but not less certainly, by the use
OF ligatures and compression around the
chest instead of the neck. This is heavy

my own sex, but it is nevertheless trne
and such is the blind infatuation which
envelopes every votary OF fashion that to

To my mind it is evident that practic-

suits OF science and reading in winter.

practical, but farming more scientific, con-
sequently both professions would be bene-
fitted. His illustrations and experiments

try, natural philosophy, geometry, &C.,
made for the benefit of his pupils in his
school, could be applied, during the sue
ceeding summer both by teacher and pu-
pill upon the farm.
Experience fully proves that summer
schools, which are composed principally
OF girls and small boys, are most prosper.

case might be, his daughter, might have
this same school during the summer
when ne would still have kind ofdouble
interest in its success.
1t must be evident from these views tina,
the plan here proposed for supplying
school teachers, would have at least three
advantages over that now pursued. viz
it would be economical, it would make
teaching profession. and it would give
schools the advantage of practice with
theory. 1t must also confer upon chill.

Thoughts to Tight Lacers.

Extract from Lecture by Mr.. Combe, the cele.
brated writer on Phrenology.
"The blood for instance, circu!ates
through the head 1000 times in an hour.
and the whole blood passes once in every
three minutes. Now if there be ANYTHING
to impede full circulation, of course the
whole system must suffer.
1nsensible perspiration goes on at the
rate of twenty-four ounces given off from
the surface of the body, every day; and
some have contended that the whole svs.
tenn is made over anew every seven
years.
The stomach is exquisiteIy sensitive.-
1t sympathises with every function. IF
the skin is neglected in its cleanliness-if
the clothing is too tight over the organs
of digestion-ift the body be kept too warm
or too cold-lf an impure air be constant
lY breathed-it is obvious enough that the
organs of life cannot go on performing
their duties in healthy manner.

Strange that the wind should be left SO free
To play with flower or tear tree;
To range or ramble whcre'er il will,
And as ii lists be fierce or still
Above and around to breathe of life,
Or to mingle the earth and sky in strife;
Gently to whisper with mornings light,
Yet to growl like fettered fend at night.
Or to love and cherish and bless to-day,
What tomorrow it ruthIessly rends awavi
Strange that the sun should call into birth
All the fair flowers and fruits Of earth,
Then bid them perish and see them die
While they cheer the soul and gladden. the eye;
AT morn its child is the prime of spring,
At night shrivelled and loathsome thing:
To-day there is hope and life in his breath,
Tomorrow II shrinks TO useless death;
Strange doth il seem that the sun should ioy
TO give birth alone that il may destroy.
Strange that the ocean should come and go.
With its daily and nightly ebb and flow
To bear on its placid breast at morn
The bark that ere night should be tempest-torn:
Or cherish IL all the way il must roam,
