"Don't gormandize We hate glutton at
all times. but especially in summer. It is
monstrous TO see men, when the mercury is

Threats. Don't you know that animal food
increases the bile? Eat sparingly, and he
sure and mastIcate what you eat. Don't bolt
your food like an anaconda. Take exercise
early in the morning. All! what fools we
are to sweat in bed, when the cool breezes of
the morning invite us forth, and the birds and
the dew, and the streams are murmuring, in
their own quiet way, which arouse kindred
melody in the soul.
Be good natured. Don't get into any an.
cry discussion on politics or religion. There
will be time enough to talk the former over
when the weather becomes cooler, and as fol
the latter, the less you talk about it the better
Religion is good thing, 5ut when you fgh
IN It's name, you show yourself ignorant o.
lis principles, and unswayed by lis influence
Battle often-three times a week-every
day. The exposure is nothing to the benefit:
derived. If you would enjoy health, have
clear head, sweet stomach, a cheerful dis
position, put your carcass under the water ev
cry day, and wi hen you emerge use the brusl
vigorously Tor five minutes. There is moth
ing like the pure braeing wafer. We never

Netc York Deserted "A letter of Thursday,
TO the Philadelphia Ledger, says:
cit is long while since Gotham was so
quiet as it is at present. Solitude seems to
have taken up It's abode in our midst, and,
paradox as 1t may appear, one feels lonier now
in Broadway than he would almost anywhere
else, out of the city. There, morning and even
ing, in that magnificent thoroughfare, nothing
is to be seen but the hard-fsted, sunburnt labor
er or mechanic, going to or returning from his
days work-nothing heard but the disco-dant
rattle Of the omnlbusses, or the less monoto-
nous music of an occasional organ-grinder. At
noon 1t is almost wholly forsaken. Wall
street is no better, and it is worse even up in
the fashionable precincts Of Union Place or
Washington Square. All is silence and SOL
itnde. Everybody is out of town, drinking
water at Saratoga. gazing on Niagara, or
rolling among the breakers at Nahant or
Rockaway."
1t is stated elsewhere that the Astor House,
paying rent of 100000 year, has at this
time only about 25 persons in it,

The Bargain and SaIe-One of the first
duties of the United States Senate will be to
examine into the bargain between the coIIec-
tor and postmaster of Philadelphia, with MI.
Levin, representative of the first district in
Congress-. This bargain, base and scandaious
as it is, seems TO be carried out by the former,
in the spirit Of the recent speech OF the latter
1t is rare thing 10 see such IDfamy openly
avowed, and it would be remarkable II 1t were
allowed to go NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..
Good Adrice.-John II. Prentice, in his re
cent valedictory on retiring from the editorial
chair, which he had filled for forty two years,
has the following:
"No man should be without wel-con-
Quoted newspaper. He is far behind the spi-
Tlt of the age unless he reads one, is not upon
an equal footing with his fello"-lnan who en-
joys such advantage. and is disregardful OF
his duty to his family, in not afordlng them
an opportunity of acquiring a knowledge OF
what is passing in the world, at the cheapest
possible teaching. Show me family with
out newspaper, and venture to say that
there will be manifest in that family want
OF amenity ofmanners and indications ofigno-
rance most strikingly in contrast with the
neighbor who allows himself such rational
indulgence. Young men. especially, should
read newspapers. If l were bow. even
Of twelve years, / would read newspaper

gence, which reading is calculated to beget d

10 SnlOEeTS.-As ii is customary with smo-
kers Of all classes to relate the news of the day
with cigars in their mouths, the following sys-
tenn is recommended
A single puff, serves for a comma,
Puff, puff, semicoon
Puff, puff, pnff, colon:
Six putts, period.
A pause with cigar kept in the mouth re-
presents dash-longer or shorter in contin-
uance.
With the underlip, raise the cigar almost
against the nose for an exclamation and to
express great emotion, even to the shedding Of
tears, only raise, as before, the ci gar TO the
end of the nose. For an Interrogation it is
only necessary to open the lips and draw the
cigar round the corner of the mouth.
Taking the cigar from the mouth and sha-
king the ashes from the end, is conclusion of
paragraph.
And throwing it into the ire is final and
stylish pause.
Never begin story with half smoked ci-
gar; for to light another, while converslng,
is breach Of politeness.
american Women-The discovery of the
American continent is due 10 Columbus, yet
II should never be forgotten that his patron
was a woman and queen. The influence
and countenance of woman sustained and
encouraged the great navigator, when his no.
vel enterprise was regarded with GOODNESS and
disfaror by all others, and had been rejected
and denounced by wise men and mighty kings.
But the name of Isabella has never been great
ly honored in this country, although many of
her sex have her inherited, her virtues and
noble sentiments, and, like her, have confer
red honor and renown upon the land. If
were asked says De Tocquevile, ito what
the singular prosperity and growing strength
Of the American people ought mainly 10 be
attributed, | should reply-to the superiority
