CLIPPINGS FROM COLTON'S
"DECK AND PORT"

PHILOSOPHY. Monday, Nov. IO. Our
sweet southwest breeze still continues, and
we are moving on under an easy sail seven
knots the hour. There is not greater folly
on the ocean than for a man-of-war to be
crowding all sail, as if speed we're the all
predominating motive. This will do for a
merchantmen when market is to be reached
as soon as possible; but for national ship,
bound on a three-years' cruise, it is miser-
able exhibition of impatience. Indeed in all
the affairs of human life moderation is true
philosophy. Our energies will give way
soon enough without any forced action. A
spirit of restlessness and discomfort is one of
the most striking faults in the American
character. We rush with railroad speed
even on ruin. 1t is as if man on his way
to the scaffold were to put his horse into
gallop.
A rRoPIcAL SHowER.-Wednesday, Nov.
I2. Last evening we had another tropical
shower. 1t fell as if some atmospheric lake
had burst its boundary. In moment all ex-
posed to il were drenched. 1t passed, and
the moon circled up out Of the sea full OF
mellow light.
| rise with the sun, and like that stern
old monarch, from salt bath. Like him too,
take another on retiring to rest. Here, ]
suppose, ends the resemblance between US,
except that both have some spots. They
who 90 to sea for their health should rise
with the sun, bathe in salt water, and inhale
the fresh air an hour before breakfast They
should also bathe before they retire to rest.
Salt water. the chafng towel. and fresh air,
are the restoratives most to be relied on, and
the very restoratives which lazy invalid
will first neglect. Were l to omit these
should hardly live long enough to reach our
next port. The invalid should confine him.
self to spare diet, and take no stimulants.
His only tonic should be the pure salt atmo-
sphere of the sea- Wine, brandy and porter
are sufficiently injurious on land, but at sea,
they carry disease and death IN their tram
4 SAILoR's REAsoN.-We have had this
evening an eclipse Of the moon; only mar
row rim of the orb escaped the dark shadow
of our earth. Our sailors net anticipating
this eclipse could not at first account for the
