THE ORGANS OF pERsp1nAr1oN

III + ORGANS OF tPERSPIRATION. d.
Taken separately, the little perspi-
ratory tube, with unprecedented gland,
is calculated TO awaken in the mind
very little idea of the importance of
the system to which it belongs;but when
the vast number of similar organs com
plslng this system are considered, we
are!ed to form somenotion, however i'm
perfect, Of their probable influence on
thehealth andcomfort ofthe individual.

visedly, for the reality surpasses imag-
nation and almost belief. To arrive
at something like an estimate Of the
value of the perspiratory system in re-
lation to the rest Of the organism, |

and now king was bestowed by con-
sent and acclamation on the bold lead

There is no vice to which the human
race are so prone, ahd none so unsuita.
bic to their nature and condition, as
pride-that self-love which springs up
so rapidly in our souls, and leads us to
view our own qualifications through a
magnlfying medium, which gives ex-
lstence and reality to the phantoms OF
imagination. Pride commences with
our life, grows with our growth, and
spreads through all our conversation
and conduct. She accompanies US
through every stage, condition and cir
cumstance ofour terrestrial course.
She intermingles with almost every ac-
ton we perform, and every pursuit in
which we engage. She attends US to
the grave, in all the pomp, solemnity,
and expense of a funeral. She en-
graves her ostentatlous Inscriptions on
the stone that covers the Wondering
body, and when that body is incorpora-
ted with its original dust, and these
aoords Of ranity are no longer legible,
She attempts by escutcheons and pedi.
grees and genealogical legends, to per-
petuate the name which wisdom had
perhaps consigned to oblivion. This
is more or less the foib!e, this the deep
rooted vice, ofall mankind Pride ap-
pears IN the cottage as well as the pal
ace; she sits on the workman's
bench as well as on the Monarch
throne; she struts drying flock of
sheep as we'll as in marching at the
head of a victorious army.

1t had been a pleasant, and hopeful
theme,
A question was long time existing
whether Braddee could read or wife.
In his last illness, it was satisfactorily
ascertained that he could do neither,
although every effort in the earlier part
OF his imprisonment TO determine the
question was unsuccessful.
