H. Fruit VSEa0re4Olsgr !

The general opinion Is, that irull Is unWhole-
some during the warm weather; but we incline
10 the belief that good ripe fruit is one Of the
very best preservatives against the orc!nary
summer disease, SO prevalent in our country.
That celebrated physician, DIR. Stone, wien he
heard that Gen. Felix Huston had undertaken TO
supply the city of N. Orleans this summer, with
the finest fruit al Il cheap late, observed in Il
blunt, oli-hand way-ssNo more scurvy now.
Eat stcwcd peaches ifyou would keep off indi-
gcslion. Plenty Of fruits for the people and no
yellow tever.'
Fruit OF all kinds has soothing and cooling
effect upon the bowels and system and sit is only
the excessive Indulgence, in that which is unIipe
or dccaying. that induces disease. Persons who
cal bad bread or putrid meat can not expect TO
enjoy good health, any more than those who
gorge themselves with green or bad fruit. Yet
we hear fruits charged as being the sole cause of
a majority of summer diseases. five eat more
of any kind OF food than the wants OF nature de-
mand, we must expect TO suffer the pains of our
.luttony; but if more good ripe fruit, and less
gross and heavy food were used, cholera -Inorhus,
dysentery, and the whole catalogue Of fsmllar
diseases would be less common. w.

History of Alcohol.

Alcohol was invented 959 years ago, by the
son OF Il strange woman, Hagar, IN Ar;ibi;t.
Ladies used it with powder 10 paint themselves
that they might appear more beautiful, and tins
powder was called alcohol. During the reign
Of William and Mary, an act was passed en-
couraging the manufacture OF spirits. Soon al
ter lntcmprrance and proIgacy prevailed to
such an extent, that the retailers IN nioAicatlng
drinks put up sens in the public places, inform
ing the people that they might get drunk for a
penny, and have some straw to get sober on.
In the sixteenth century, distilled spirits spread
over the continent Of Europe. About this time
i was introduced into the colonies, us the United
States were then called. The first notice we
have Of its use in public life, was among the
loborcrs in the hungarian mines, III the fifteenth
century. In 1881. ii was used by the En9 dish
soldiers as a cordial. The alcohol III Europe
was made from grapes, and sold in Italy and
Spain a. a medicine. The GenoeSe afterwards
made il from grain, and sold il as a medicine ii
bottles, under the nainc of the water of life.
Until the sixteenth century it was only kept by
apothecaics as !, medicine. During the reign
of ofHenry VII, brandy was unknown in Ireland,
and soon its alarmln. effects induced the govern
ment to pass law prohibiting its manufacture.
About l20 years ago 1t was used as a beverage,
