EU- A learned writer, Dendy, saws
"Dryden, TO ensure bis brilliant visions of
poesy, ate raw flesh; and Mrs. Radcliffe
adopted the same plan. Green tea and
coffee, if we DO sleep, induce dreaming.
Bapiista Porta for procuring quiet rest and
pleasing dreams swallowed horse tongue
after supper. Indigestion, and tina. con-
dition which is termed weak or irritable
stomach, constitute most fruitful source
Of visions. The immediate or direct In
fluence of replelion, in totally altering the
sensations aud the disposition in waking
moments,is proof Of its power TO derange
the circulation OF the brain, and the men.

troubled with Indigestion may surely get

- $50 be Burned. =
For the sake of the fair fame of the city and
the reputation Of the better portion of our cit
liens, who profess to be Christians and en-
lightened people, we should like to have the
record which follows wiped from our memory
and blotted from the list of horrible acts of
which our city has too long been the scene.
But this is impossible Already the meagrc
accounts have flashed to the borders of our
country, and the whole civilized community
have shuddered with horror at the terrible
thoughts suggested. and any attempt to cover
it up or apologize for its enormity, would
make US, In degree, parties to it,.
Yesterday afternoon, immed diately after din
ner we were startled by the information from
a citizen of the First Ward, that at that mo-
ment man. by the name of Pfeii, a resident
of the First Ward, and who lives in one Of the
elegant dwellings, upon the lake bluff on the
North Point plank road, was preparing pile
of wood and other combustibles for the pdr-
pose of burning the body Of his wife, who died
the night before Wecould scarcely believe
it anything but a hoax We, however. re-
paired at once to the Office of the Sheriff and
found that it was true, and that Sheriff Como
yer, Under Sheriff Beck and their deputies,
had already gone to the scene of this heathen
funeral. kssl
On arriving at the house we found sight
that probably never before met the eye of an
American The heather Pfeil had got gang
of men at work drawing sixteen cords of wood
and arranging it upon the Lake shore In the
rear of his house, for the purpose of burning
the body of his wife, scarcely cold, according
to his and as he says) her ideas of burial.
There were the shavings, the turpentine and
the funeral pile Of Is cords of wood. 1t was
a sight to mako Christian blood run cold and
civilized and enlightened minds shrink with
horror at the contemplation of the moral de-
prayity that in broad daylight should attempt
such an ungodly act. -. l.'.s
thus bedeviled and .beheathened, and found
him in rcmoastrance with Sheriff Conover,
and stoutIy claiming his right to burn his wife
as he had laid out But the Sheriff told him
that it could not be done IN this community,
and at once took charge of matters, and
changed the programme. Acting in concert
with Pfeil, was man whose name our citi-
zens will be shocked with wonder to hear Mr.
Wendt. He also claimed the full right of Mr..
Pfeil to burn his wife, and said to the sheriff
that he had no business to interfere He was
present to assist Mr. .Pfeil in the heathenish
rites of burning. -
The body lay upon table enyeloped in q
shroud all ready to be carried out at the back
door, and placed upon the pile.
The Sheriff told the man that if he should
persist in any such attempt to outrage the
cherished moral sentiments Of the city, that
ere the pile had been halt. consumed there
would be maddened crowd about him that

ORIGIN Of Tea. !

The Chinese have the following tradition
relating to the origin Of tea :" Darma, a
very religious prince, and son of an Indian
king, came into China about the year $40,
purely to promulgate his religion, and with
the hope of alluring Others to virtue by his
example, pursued life of unrivaled mortif-
cation and penance, eating vegetables, and
spending most of his time, unsheltered by any
dwelling, in the exercise of prayer and deyo-
ton. After continuing this life for some
years, he became worn out with fatigue, and
at length closed his weary eyes in sleep
against his will; !; but, on awakening, such was
his renorse and grief for having broken his
vou. that, in order to prevent relapse, he
cut off his eye-lids, as being the instruments
of his crime, and threw them on the ground
Returning to the same spot on the ensuing
day, he found them changed into two shrubs,
now known by the name of tea.-Darma, eat
ing some of the leaves, felt much vigor i'm
parted to his mind. and lethargy which had
previously overpowered him intirely disap-
peared. He acquainted his disciples with the
wonderful properties of the shrubs, aud in
time the use of them became universal"

OF RIO De JASErRo.- city is supplied
with pure water, fed by splendid Stone
aqueduct, leading from the Corcovado noun
tain. The summit of that lofty mountain
(onlJ Eve miles distant from the city, is
crowned with wild forest trees, which being
cooler than the surrounding atmosphere con-
denses the vapor. and this falls in showers
into artificial lakes. The. acqueduct, after
descending the mountain, extends across a
deep valley resting on a double tier of lofty
arches, one above the other, and the water IS
conducted TO the reservoir. as ia is brought
down the hillside, by stone troughs laid on
the top of this two-sfory bridge. The whole
of this work Of utility is highly ornamental

THE INFLUENCE OF WoMEN. 1t is better
for you to pass an evening once or twice a
week IN a lady's drawing room, even though
the conversation is rather slow, and you know
the girls songs by heart, than in club, tav-
ern, or the pit of theatre All amusements
of youth, to which yirtuous women are not
admitted, rely on it, are deleterious in their
nature. All men who avoid female. society,
have dull perceptions and are stupid, or have
gross tastes and revolt against what is pnre.
Your club swaggerers, who are sucking the
butts of billiard cues ali night, call female So
cie.y insipid. Poetry is insipid to yokel !;
beauty hasno charms for blind man; music
does not please a poor beast who does not know
one tune from another; and as true epicure
is hardly ever tired of water sanchy, and brown
bread and butter, protest can sit for a
whole night talking to well regulated kindly
woman, about her girl coming out, or her boy,
at Eaton apd like the evening entertainment
One of the great benefits man may derive
from awoman's society is. that he is bound to
be respectful to them. The habit is of great
good to your moral man, depend upon it.
Our education makes the most eminent
ly selfish men in the world We efightfor our
selves, we push for ourselves, we yawn for
ourselves, we light our pipes and say we won't
go out; we prefer ourselves, and our ease,
and the greatest good that comes to man
from woman's society, is, that he has to
think Of somebody besides himself, somebody
to whom he is bound to be constantly atten-
tive and respectful = 1hdckerdy.
