The ScIENE OF GOING TO BED.--The earth is a
magnet, with magnetic currents CONSTANT, PLAYING
around IL, The human body is also a rnagpe, and
when the body is placed in relation the earth these
bodies harmonze-when in any otherpostion they con-
time, position should be chosen in which the maone,
currents of the earth and body will not conflict This
position is indicated by theory, and known by exper
iment is to lie with the head towards the north pole
Persons who sleep with their heads in the opposite d.
recton, or lying cross wse are liable to fall into va
rious nervous disorders. When they go back to the
right position, these disorders, if not too deeply inn
pressed upon the constitution, soon vanish. Sensitive
persons are always refreshed by sleep when their
heads point due north. Architects, in planning houses
should bear this principle in mind.

REMOVAL OF THE STATE HoUsE-The special
committee OF the Legislature, in their report of the re.
mova of the seat of Government to some town in tbe
Interior estimate that tbe present stale House and
grounds in Boston would bring $780, at least, which
would build superb edfce in the country.
The report concludes with resolve authorising the
Governor to appoint five commissioners to ascertain a
suitable place. Worcester would probably be the town.
The report states that the pleasures Of metropolis
nave TOO frequently prevented proper and speedy
transaction OF the public business, and the absence of
them IN an interior town would tend to shorten the ses-
sIons That removal would be beneficial there can
be no Doubt and that it is necessary all will readily ad-
NIT The committee contend, also, that if the seat of
government were 10 the interior, the salaries of the
public officers might be reduced, and yet remain gener-
ously large in relation the wants of the iucunbepts.
