WuISKEY.

Mn. EplToR:-Some twenty years
ago, when whiskey was made from pure
rye, or rye and corn, man could drink
it for years and yet it did not kill him;
but now, it will kill him in about one
year OF eighteen months. Did you ev.
er take notice of the peculiar smell of
man who has been daily drinking this
stuff for some time how offensive it isl
He i, swelled and pulled up aud looks
like cooked lobster. He is mass Of
walking corruption. Now, sir, what is
the cause of all l,his2 In old times they
could not get as much whiskey out of
bushel Of grain as can be got now
days, nor would it kill people as quick.
In order to make little more money
ou, of the article new discovery has
been made. Do you know anything
about tho manufacture of whiskyi 1t
might be instructive to some OF your
readers to know. The grain is ground
or what is called by slilers, chopped
1t is then scalded in large tubs and made
up into what, by the sliller, is called
mash, into which yeast is put to cause
fermentation. After some days frmen-
tatiou the liquor, or still beer, as it is
called, is ready for distillstion, which
is done by putting the beer in the still
with the usual fixtures Of machinery,
&C., &C., thereto belonging. The pro-
cess OF steaming is commenced which
produces what is called singlings, that
double distilled makes whisky. In old
times so soon as the liquor commenced
running from tho worm, a barrel with
a funnel in it, was set TO caatch the same,
it was usual, and not to be forgotten, to
place piece Of flannel in the funnel to
extrac, all the verdigris from the liquor,
as this is one Of the most deadly poi
sons, of green color, and if not ex-
,racted during the process Of manufac-
ture might kill. However that may be
left to the drinkers Of whisky tojudge
for themselves. BY the new discovery
which has been made, q little strychnlne
is nut into the mash. This is another
deadly poison which causes larger
yield of whisky to the bushel Of grain.
and consequently it is more profitable.
Hence, in so short time comes delerl-
um tremens, hobgobins, snakes, devils.
and all other kinds of craziness that
takes hold Of him who drinks it, aud
prepares him forthe commission OF any
crime to be found incorporated in the
category of crime; and finally he dies
one Of the most wre,ched deaths in the
world. If there is any one who may
be indulging in this thing, who should
read this article. all tha, con be said in
the name of heaven is, "coase from it
and let it alone"

Life Of DR.. JudsOn.

There was an important case week be.
fore last in the Superior Court in New York
between Edward H. Fletcher and Charles p.
Nurton the proprietor Of "Nor,on's Literary
Gazette" in regard to the life Of Dr.. Jujson
published by Mr.. Fletcher. The facts are
these: Dr.. Judson died in 1850, leaving his
wife, wsll-known as Fanny Forester" and
a large family Of children, with no 9th,
er provision for their support than an income
Of less than thousand dollars year. A
life Of Dr.. Judson was commenced BY Dr..
Wayland, Of Brown University, under the
auspices Of the American Baptist Missionary
Union. The terms Of various publishers
were procuted-among others tucse Of Mr..
Fletcher. Mrs. Judson decided upon Phil.
lips, Sampson & Co., ard looked TO the sale
Of the book for an increase Of income. The
work was hardly finished before Mr.. Fetch.
er New York Publisher, employed some
one to write another life, to be sold at re-
duced price. Mr.. Norton was involved ii
the affair by publishing a letter from Dr.
Wayland TO Mr.. Fletcher. intimating ,ha
il he issued such book he would be tn.
means Of depriving Mrs, Judson of subsis'
ence, whereupon Mr.. Fletcher brought
suit against Mr.. Norton for libel. The cast
excited great interes, and terminated in ia
vor Of the defendant-lndepsndant.

MISC Ill A N EOUS.
PETER AND PAUL.

From St. Paul's expression, /" before
ALL" Galatians ii. 14,) it is evident that
his rebuke of Peter took place on some
public occasion.
The scene, though slightly mentioned.
is one of the most remarkable in sacred
history; and the mind naturally labors
to picture to itself the appearance of
the two men. 1t is, therefore, at least
allowable to mention here the general
notion Of the forms and features Of the
two apostles which has been handed
down in tradition, and was represented
by the early artists. St. Paul is set be:
fnre US as having the strongly marked
and prominent features of Jew, yet
not without sumo of the finer lines indi-
ca,iyo Of Greek thought. His stature
was diminutive, and his body disfg gu.
red by some lameness or distortion
which may have provoked the contempt
uous expressions Of his enemies. Ills
beard was long and thin. His head was
bald. The characteristics of his face
were transparent complexion, which
visibly betrayed the quick changes of
his feelings; a bright grey eye, under
,hickly overhanging, united eyebrows
cheerful aud winning expression OF
countenance, which invited the approach
and inspired the confidence of strangers.
1t would be natural to infer, from his
continual journeys and manual labor
that he was possessed Of great strength
of constitution. But men of delicate
health have often gone through the great
est exerlions; and his own words, on
more than one occasion, showed that
he suffered much from bodily infirmity.
St. Peter is represented to us as a
man Of larger and stronger form, as his
character was harsher and more abrupt.
The quick impulses of his soul revealed
themselves in the flashes of dark eye.
The complexion Of his face was full
and sallow; and the short hair, which
is described as entirely gray at the time
of his death, curlcd black and thick
round his temples and his chin when
the two apostles stood together at Anti
och, twenty years before their martyr
dom. Believing as we do, that these
,traditionary, pictures have probably
some some foundation in truth, we gladly
take them as helps to the imagina,i"n.-
Aud they certainly must assist US in re-
alizing remarkable scene, where Ju'
daism and Christianity, in the persons
of two apostles, are for a moment bro't
before US in a strong antagonism.-LJs

Thoughts to Think About.

l, betokens as great soul 10 be capable Of
curing fault, as to be capable Of committing
it.
Your word is your servant, as long as you
retain il; bu. It becomes your master when
you suffer it to escape.
Idleness is the gate ofall harms
Gteat cities are Satan's universities.
To govern with Judgement is to govern
with justice.
Effects in nature are never fortuitous.
In private we must watch our thoughts
in The family our tempers, in company oul
tongues.
We may live by forms, there is no dying
by forms.
Affections are Gods whetstones they ru1
new edge upon old principles.
We are what we are in private.
Our principles are the springs Of cir ac-
tons, our actions the springs Of our happiness
aud misery. Too mich care, therefore can
not be employed in forming our prlnci.
pies.
Our very manner is thing ofimpor,ance.
A kind no is often more agreeable than a
rough yes.
All is but lip wisdom tha. wants expert
enre.
Never let tout tongue 50 before your
thoughts
Tlms is like verb, that can only be oi
use in the pressn, tense,
Time never sits heavily on us but when il
is badly employed.
Time is etea,ful friend: use it well, and
!, never fails to make suitable reqni,al.
Time, we'll employed, gives That hsal'h
and yigor 10 the soul which health and re.

Time is like creditor who allows an am.
