The Homestead Bill.

This important measure which has so
long occupied the attention of Congress,
passed the House of Representatives on
Wednesday last. by a vote af lO7 to SO.
1t grants to any person who is'the head of
family the right to locate, free of cost,
l6O acres of public land provided he owns
no other land, and will actually settle upon
the land he enters and remain thereon five
years. '-.
The effect of this measure will be to
greatly depreciate the value of Bounty
Land Warrants already issued.
The following are the leading proyis-.
ions: S-
Sec. l. That any person who is the
head of a family and citizen Of, the
United States, or any person who is The
head Of family, and had become a
citizen prior to the first of January, eigh-
teen hundred and fifty-two, as required by
the naturalization law of the United States
shall, from and after the passing of this
act, be entitled to enter, free of cost one
quarter section Of vacant and unappEOpria-
ted public lands,or quantity equal there
to, TO be located in body in conformity
with the legal subdivisions off the public
lands, and aftrer the same shall have been
surveyed.
"Sec. 2.4And be itfurther enacted, That
the person applying for the benefit Of this
act shall, upon application to the register
of the land Office in which he or she is
about to make such entry, make affidavit.
before the said register that he or she is
the head of a family, and is not the owner
of any estate in land at the time of such
application, and has not disposed of any
estate in land to obtain the benefits ofthis
act and upon making the affidavit with
the register, he or she shall thereupon be
permitted to enter the quantity Of land
already SPECIFIED. Provided, however,
no certifcste shall be- given or patent
issuedthere0r Until the expiration of 1--we
years from the date of such entry and If,
at the expiration of such time, the person
making such entry, or if he. is dead, his
widow, or i'll case of her death, his heirs or
deyisee or, in case of a widow making
such entry, her heirs or devisee, in case Of
her death, shall prove by two credible
witnesses that he, she, or they have con-
tinued to reside upon and cultivated said
land, and still reside upon the same, and
have not alienated the Same or any part
thereof, then in such case, he, she, or they
shall be entitled to patent as in other
case provided for by law.

Woman at Home.

The subjoined article from the Philadei-
pbia Bulletin, commends ITSELF as well by
the strong common sense view which it
exhibits, as the genuine PHILOSOPHY per-
vadingi it. The women Of Carolina, we
are proud to say, are singularly exempt
from the false vanity therein portrayed;
yet the evil does exist though il be in a
qualified degree. The lesson cannot be
too strongly impressed, upon the minds
of wives and mothers; that in being a
lady, one need not cease TO be Tin the
true sense of the word a acon.an.
"lt may be only fancy of ours"
says Mrs. Kirkland, in one of her admi-
rable essays, "that Providence has 80 de-
cidedly fitted woman fofhousehold cares,
that she is never truly and healthy hap
py without them; but if it be fancy,
it is one which much observation has
confirmed" -..r '..
We commend these words to serious
consideration. The general bad health
of females, in what are called the re-
spectacle classes, is q subject that we
have often referred to: for it is one that
affects not the happiness of families mere
ly. but the veal Of the whole community;
not the present generation only, but fn-/
ture ones also. Physicians tell us that
not one lady in ten, in a gret ciy, enjoys
robust health. Mrs. Kirkland, we sus-
pect, has explained the cause. It's GER
tain that women generally, who are not
compelled to labor for livelihood di-
rectly, neglect exercise almost entirely, and
hence bring on themselves dyspepsia,
nervous disorders and other diseases. To
prform house-work is too frequently con-
sidered degrading. Even where the moth
.er, iu obediance to the traditions of her
youth condescends' occasionally to labor,
the daughters are brought mp in perfect
idlness, taking no bodily exercise Sexcept
that Of walking IN fine weather, riding in
cusl ioned Garages, or dancing at party.
Those, IN short, who can afford to hire
servants, cannot bemean themselves, as
they think by domestic labors. To
make up bed is. regarded often as ex-
hasusting beyond descfptoa 70 sweep q

A TERRIBLE DEATH.

We mentioned few days ago thai
Capt. WILLIAMS, who had been bitten by
a rabid dog, at Brandywine, Del, had
subsequntly died Of hydrophobia at his
residence at Cape May. DR. WALES, his
attending physician, thus describes the
condition Of the unfortunate man after he
became aware of the nature oi his disease:
"Fully now awake to the awful nature
Of his disease, his mind, too, but little dis.
turbed, he continued from this time (about
6 o'clock P. NJ in wakeful state, now
conversing with tolerable composure upon
such topics as might be suggested, and
anon thrown into the most painful muscu-

were offered him, or even any allusion
made to any thing Of the kind. The case,
however. did not attain its worst phase
until about o'clock the following morn.
