Everything points TO the approach of sckly

be the care OF every person TO preserve the
several functions Of the body in their full

organism is already disordered through their

and its opposite. Eat nothing indigestble.
Avoid all green and half matured vegetables
and fruits. Pay strict attention TO the clean.

all begin the work of publication about your

DoN'T READ THIS IN PUBLIc.-[We like a
good thing; but some good things propriety
requires to be enjoyed privately. The follow.
ing, if read publicly, might hurt somebody's
feelings. 1t is from the Memphis Eagle.]
Governor McRae, of Mississippi, has just
given the world specimen of his cemency
in the pardon of person who had been con-
victed Of, and Imprisoned for selling liquor to
slaves. The reader could not guess in u
week the reason assigned for the pardon, and
TO save him the trouble, we will tell him
lie was pardoned on the ground that he was
a "foreigner, short time in the country, and
unacquainted with the law" Now let us see
how wide you can open your eyes, reader.--
There, that will do. Now, that is rather
singular reason to give, by a Governor who
thinks that notwithstanding the mans alien
ism and Ignorance of the law, he is Qualified
to vote! II is something new in the law,
that n mans ignorance of il is an excuse for
violating it. Such a principle would excuse
all violations Of il by negroes and iilerate
persons generally. But the beauty of the
thing is, that the man came to this country In
1850, and was naturalzed on the 9th of Jan
uary, 1856, convicted and sent to prison the
very next day, and pardoned three months
after. We leave the reader To smoke this
pipe.full of executive logic, and puff some
thing out Of it if he can.

| tu'oeu uonestc Hnnquhity, we nave had Oc-
casion TO recognize governments de facio
founded either by domestic revolution or by
military invasion from abroad, in many of the
governments of Europe,
il is the more imperatively necessary to
apply this rule o: the Spanish American re.
publics, in consideration of the frequent and
not seldom anomalous changes of organiza.
tion or administration which they undergo,

When, therefore, some time sihce, new
minister from the republic of Nicaragua pre-
sented himself, bearing the commission of
President Rivas, he must and would have
been received as such, unless he was found
on inquiry subject to personal exception, bu,
for the absence of satisfactory information
upon the question whether President Rivas
was IN fact the head of an established gov
