PRESENTATIONS OF HEALTH.-At this season.
wnen the increased coldness of the weather rem
ders warm clothing fires, and various precaut;on.
ary measures necessary, less danger to health
may be apprehended from the cold itself which the
sensation of it will make every one guard against
than from setting in draughts of air, exposure,
ana ~et, iand worst OF all damp feet. OF course
every one knotcs all this; but unless this season
Is different from the, same period of the year
generally for many years past, many in our com.
munity will fink for want of that prevention
which is better than cure, and which little exer
clse OF common sense might have obviated in
proper time. Many a useful citizen has been lost
to his country and friends by neglect or want of
proper care Of his health. A slight cold brought
on slight inflammation, this took an acute form,
grew, increased, became more and more alarming,
and In spite of every effort, ended fatally.

We had very serious and alarming reports In our

we have heard the excitement among the people

greater and more general than we supposed
Through what is called the Iron District on the
Cumberland and Tennessee rivers, there are from
5000 to 10000 Plaves employ ed at the iron works:
they are there congregated in large numbers,
working In the various labors Of making charcoal,

doubt OF wide spread conspiracy existing In that
neighborhood, and that q number Of the ringiead.

and that among those arrested was person who

demnatiou of those present, he was sentenced to
receive 900 lashes and that he expired before the
penalty had been fully inflicted These occur.
