GEN. CAss AS A PIONEER. We have heard
Gen. Cass in the Senate, repeatedly refer to bis
early pioneering exploration in the West and the
democratic Pc >ers speak OF his having descended
the Mississippi in skiff. The Burlington Qowa)
Hawke.eye says that this was the way in which
it was done
'When Gen. Cass, many years ago, made his
voyage in skiff down the Mississippi, he had
large arm chair placed in the skiff. with four
strong men to propel it. When he came TO sboal
water near Galena, where the boat could not pass
without being lightened, the men had to take him
as he was in the arm chair and bear him throu on
mud and water, thigh deep, to the shore, where
ne remained until they got over the shoal water,
when they took him on their shoulders, arm
char and all, and without wetting his feet. Mac

no doubt prove highly satisfactory.
NORTHAMPTON, Oct IL, I848,
Mr.. EDIIoR,-I am surprised at the interest
which your paper takes in private individual
like myself. | think that your concern in this
matter is much in advance of that OF the public
However, you will allow me to say, for your own
satisfaction, and that of any OF your readers who
care to know, that believe, in view OF the pres
ent position of the country, that Mr.. Van Buren,
will make better President than either of the
other candidates; and my action and influence,
whether Providence assigns it large or small
sphere, will be exerted accordingly.
Moreover, the nomination of Mr. AIvord for
Congress meets my appreciation and will receive
my support.
Reasons you do not care for | will give them
hereafter, in my own way. The facts you have
| trust they will alay your doubts, wha ever in

fears.
Wishing you the satisfaction OF a quiet mind on
this and all other subjects,

All was unostentalious, severely simple aud
purely republican, the life OF the brave patriot
the conscientious statesman and humble hearted
Christian, gone to receive his reward-the rest

coming OF the angel OF DEATH and when his last

WALKING. OF all kinds of exercise. walking
is that which is the most universally attainable
and at the same time the best. Calling SO MANY

lower extremities, of which the circulation IS ant

force of gravity to the return of the blood to the

earth) the healthtu influence OF the direct rays
OF the sun. The degree OF the exercise must Of
course vary with the age. condition, and habits
OF the individual; but the degree of exercise that
is in most cases servicable, is generally much
moderated. Two miles day is the least dis
lance which any person Of moderate health and
strength ought TO walk. II the powers OF the
system increase, or are stronger TO begin with,
the minimum ought to be four miles
The object should be, in most cases, to walk
the four miles in an hour; and the invalid, be-
ginning, perhaps, by walking mile, or mile
and halt, in an hour, might gradually increase
his rate OF walking until he has ACCOMPLISHED this
end. Quick walking calls more muscles into ac-
tioI than slow walking does, and is therefore
better. The muscles Of the back and trunk,
neck and arms, are comparatively very little
used in slow walking. A person can hardly walk
quickly without using them to a very considera.
