How TO DtE Az EASY DEATH.-Verv
many essays have been written on the ca

an ens.er road to death than either. Al

ceiPt: Take several strong cords, rasten
round the wais, as tight as YOU can bear it,
and lc, them remain day or two. Gradu-
ally tighten the cords perseyere until
your body has the appearance of an hour

you will feel faint and languid. canno, en-:

work Of death will be gradually gazing on,
and before many months consumption will
be seated, and you Will die SO easy death
that your parting breath will be hardly
percePtble. If, however, you want 10

When you are really come TO years OF

No; trade is one thing, and what we call
morals is another. Six days for business
and the seventh for religious duties. That,
Mr.. John Balance, has always been my
motto; and following il, meyer yet had a
bill protested, but became in time what am

his hand upon his heart and say he has

NEwsPArERs IN Nav ENeLANp.-The
following article we extract from that cpl.
tome of much that it is useful and interes
ing, DickinsoE's Boston Almanac:
There are nearly three hundred news
papers published in six Of the New Eng
land States. That they exercise an i'm
mense intellectual power, by which the
whole structure Of society can be moved,
for veal or woe, cannot with proprieiy be
questioned. Where the press is unshackled
and ii advocates the rights Of man, the
people have respect for law and religion,
and sustain with unflnchng frmness the
fabric of civilization and freedom.
Massachusetts has more newspapers
than any three States of the six. In Bos
ton there are thirteen dalIes, those Of the
first class being maintained a. an expense
for operatives alone, Of moi far from SIS
600 year each. TO carry ON all tie

labor of sending knowledge. a, regular pc,

the remntest hamlet OF The North. Many
large papers having an extensive clreula-

hands.
TO conduct this large number of papers
so that the community, always alive to its
hes: Interests, shall be satisfied with tho
course each one is pursuing md sustain them
by prompt payments, thee are certainly as
many as three hundred responsible editors.
They are men distinguished alike for capaci-
ty, education and industry. Finally, the
collateral, literary and scientific assistance
which this strong corps ofvigilant sen,inels
over the public veal receive, embraces two
or three hundred minds more Of superior
order.
Such is the newspaper press in New Eng

consciousness. The New York American
Republican states that "not only was the de-
claration of the Native American party, as EN-
bodied in the address of the National Conyen-
ton OF Philadelphia, to the people, made upon
the same spot where the Declaration of our
National Independence was read GO years pre-
vious, but the President of the Convention OF
the 4,h Of July, l776, and of the 4th of July,
lS45, happened to have come from the same
place, viz: Roxbury Mass There were IS
States represented in the old convention, and
and there were also Is States represented in
the late Convention. The occasion was the
anniversary of the kensington tragedy, in
which unarmed native citizens were shot down
in the streets like dogs, by lawless foreign
band. There were several other singular CO.
incdences which appeared on this occasion"
These condolences were mentioned to us
by members Of the Convention, and are GER
tainly singular. 1t is to be hoped that the de-
claraton Of the Convention will be as success
fully sustained by the people of the United
States, as was the declaration of Independ-
ence-for, unless we can prevent the influx of
foreign criminals and paupers, and prohibit the
shameful manufacture of voters without re-
gard to time of residence or other qualification,
