SUNDAY SICKNESS S.

| suspect that there is twice as much
sickness in the United States on the Sab
bath, as on any other day ia the week; and
| am quite sure there is about as much me-
dIclne taken on that day as on all the rest.
These alarming facts, if they are facts de-
serve the immediate and earnest inycstiga-
ton OF the whole medical faculty. Ii can
not be owing TO the climate. TO miasma, or
any sudden changes of temperature, be-
cause these are liable TO affect the health.
Just as much one day as another Much
less can we ascribe it to any special divine
visitation, TO disable people from attending
public worship on the Sabbath, when they
are able TO be out and attending TO their Sc
cular business from Monday morning until
Saturday night.
The sickness Of which | am speaking
prevails all over the country, is the same
to affect all classes though not in the same
degree. The Industrious hard laborng
class, are more apt to be down on the Sab
bath than the rich and fashionable. The
latter cannot, or will not afford it, as many
Of them want the day for riding, sailing
and visiting their friends. The laboring
people IN the cities, are not so liable to
these preliminary attacks rs in the coun-
try; and the reasons seems to be the same
they want the Sabbath for relaxation, with
which the operation of active medicine
would seriously interfere.
Although not making prctensions TO the
healing aHt myself, it may be expected OF
me, that | should be a little more particu-
lar in showing how the sickness now un-
der consideration generally comes on, and
how II IS most commonly relieved; ! say
relieved not cured for it is exceedingly apt
10 break out again in few Sabbaths after
it seems 10 be entirely expelled from the
system. A little more work is undertaken
on the farm or in the shop that can be per-
formed. AS a matter of course extra eff
forts are necessary. Nature by the week
begins to complain that she is not fairly
dealt by, and to call for relaxation. lfhcr
voice is not needed she raises ii louder
The man conicsses that he does not feel
well, and he needs rest and medicine But
he cannot afford 10 lie by on a week day.
The Sabbath is approaching, and then he
shall he atIeisure, and will attend to HIM c f.
More generally perhaps, especially in hay
ing aud harvest, medicine is sent for on
Sunday morning, as sickness as every bo-
dy knows must be attended 10, and as he
could not get time to take it any sooner,
and it viii not do, he thinks to put it off
any longer, especially as he must resume
his labors again on Monday morning.
Sometimes Sunday sickness comes on
very suddenly in the morning. 1t may
rain; and what if it should? Would the
prospect Of getting little wet prevent The
individual from going out on any otter
day? Is he afraid of lightning? Oh no!
unless it be Sabbath day lightning. But
now at once, he finds out that he is not
very well. He is afraid he shall take cold
and so he stops at home.

An Erhortation 10 Farmers Daughters
Our fears are, not that there are not
many excellent dairy women in the land.
but that the benefits Of their KNOWLEDGE
and practice will be lost in the new gene
ration that is sPringing up. Hundreds
and tn thousands of farmers daughters leave
the homes of their mothers and seek other
employments, as if with dsrolish OF that
which may be practically more and more
scarce. The occupation is stripped by the
demand for young women az operatives in
factories, as milIiners or sewers, shoc-bind-
ers or straW-braiders. or in some other me-
chanical occupation. How short do such
as are thus employed come of the quail
ficatlons Of the yirtuous maid who obtains
the best part Of her education under the roof
Of her own father, from the instruction Of
the mother that knows how TO do every
thing coming within her province as the
wife of thriving farmer-who is entirely
at home in all that pertains to tho dairy.
the economical use and due preparation Of
articles Of food and clothing, and who snr-
fors none Of her household to "cat the
bread Of idleness !"
ii io1 ~ INC IlSiIg idIF generation, 10
whom shall we look for the hands that are
TO supply so important a portion of sub
s'stence as the products ofthe dairy The
farmer may keep his forty, fifty, or a hun
dred cows : if there be no female 10 pre-
parethe vessels, none to direct in the strain
ing and the setting Of the milk, extraction
and disposition Of the cream, the churning
into butter, the separation Of the butter
milk, the clean and sating down--if all
this is expected of men, and not of women
how miserably shall we hereafter drop
away in the produce Of most profitable
and most useful article in the production
of the farm at that precise time when there
is the most sure encouragement for the far
mer to enter upon and persevere in the
business Of the dairy Visitor.

Ear<y settlements and exploration in the

and was point Of resort for the far ira
dcrS at that period.

(the first vessel larger than a canoe that
ever hoatoJ upon these watcrs) in August
OF that year and arrived at Macnac in The
latter part Of The month. From thence he
went toward the Mississippi. Fort Creve
