medicinal virtues hereby state, that have examin-
ed the analysis of the water made by Prof Boothe Of

Samuel If. CARPER, NJ d.
The water has been analysed by Professor Boothe
of Philadelphia, whe says
"A mineral spring of such richness and quality as
the analysis indicates, will prove valuable the
physician. Its position in the healthy mountain
gion of Virginia, about equi-distant many of the
sulphur and other well known springs of the State
confer higher value upon the Stipulated Cbalyhiate

The Cosr OF LIVING, MOVING, BE1NG.-A
verb is word which signifies to be, to do, or
to suffer, as Lindley Murray says. Now, the
first definition, which seems to simply express
existence, really implies the other two, in a
philosophical sense, because a man connot be,
unless he does, or acts, and suffers. In other
words, he must eat, and pay for what he eats.
The first is an action of pleasure, to be sure f;
but the second, though an action also, volun-
tary or involuntary, and essentially transitive,
is attended with no small degree of pain or en-
durance. Many of our readers, who intend

Our apprehensions of the mischievous inhu-
euce Of Know Nothingism in checking foreign
immigration, are proved to have been well
grounded. The New York Erening Post re-
marks
The arrival of emigrants from abroad has
Undergone a great diminution lately. Not half
the number of foreigners come to New York
fr the purpose of making our country their
residence, that came formerly. The Commits
soHers of Emigration, in statement dated
Yesterday make the number of emigrants who
arrived at our port, during the FIVE months of
lie year 1855 which have already elapsed, to
be but 1854, while in the same months of the
year 1854 the number was l08,994. This is
F0digiOus decline"
The noisy boastings Of the New Party have
reached Europe, and the People there have
been made to believe that the victories over the
Administration have been achieved by Native
Amercanism, and this impression has been
dsepened by the innumerable letters from i'm
migrants in this country to their friends and
relations at home. The effect Is now manifest.
The stream of immigration will be diverted
onsderably to Canada, Australia, and the
Jantres of South America.
A highly intelligent European friend and an
almirer of our institutions, writing to us from
Central Germany, says:
1T is with deep regret find that the high
opinion which the Germans have, until lately,
entertained of the People of the United States
Is daily decreasing. The blameable proceed
ings Of the Know Nothings, and the wicked
schemes planned for perpetuating Slavery in
Cuba, have evidently produced this change.
Besides, the sympathy evinced by many Amer
ican journals for Russia, has contributed much
10 damage the position of your country in the
yes Of the Liberal Party in Germany and
throughout Europe. Two years ago, the Uni
I'd States might have been sure of the sympa-
thy Of the masses of the Continental People in
struggle with Great Britain but dare not af.
i'm That such would be the case now. Ameri-
"a has lost, while England has gained, popular
ly on the Continent. 1t is to be hoped that
the good sense of the Nation at large will prove
tiectaal against the delirium which has seized
some of the parties that divide you"
