How Many Hours to Work.

This has been and continues to be q
mooled point, but we think the truth lies
in the principle laid down by the Lon
don Quarterly Review, that the limit 10
mental work varies not only in various
individuals, but according to the nature
Of the work ITSELF Dr.. Johnson assigne ed
eight hours day as sufficient for study /;
Sir Walter Scott worked four or five ;
mathematicians, and those who do not
tax the imagination much, may and do
safely study ten or twelve hours daily.
AS general proposition, it may be sta.
ted that those studies which excite the
feelings are those which can be leas,
borne. On the other hand, the tranquil
abors Of the mind have a marked ten.
dency 10 prolong lie. "Ou meurt de
Bertise" is perfectly true ;the unemploy.
ed brain, like the unused muscle, DECAYS

tise on the Influence Of Civilization on
Longevity" shows the effect Of brain la.
Dor Of an unexciting kind in those who
are protected by an assured income from
the inroads OF care. He took at random
the ages Of one hundred and ffty.two in.
dividuals, one half Of whom were mem.
bers Of the Academy Of Sciences, the
other half Of the Academy OF Insc riptions,
and found that the average longevity Of
these mathematicians and anti1uarians
was n;nety.six years; Sir Humphrey
Davy seems to have had in view only
those who have "battled" with life when
he states "that there are few instances in
this country Of very eminent men reach.
ing old age. They usually fail, droop,
and die before they attain tho period
naturally marked for the end of human
existences; the lives Of our statesmen,

honor Of my contemporaries, would

but, in noticing the peculiarities Of the

me to give this vice q passing notice.
The interview which AM about to pre-.
sent to my readers exhibits it in its
mildest and most harmless forms.
In the county Of, and about
five miles apart, lived old Hardy Slow
and old Tobias Swift. They were both
industrious, honest, sensible farmers
when sobet; but they never visited their
country town without getting drunk ;
and then they were-precisely what the
following narrative makes them.
They both happened at the Court
house on the same day when last saw
them together; the former accompanied
by his wife, and the latter BY his young.
est son, a lad about thirteen. Tobias
was just clearly on the wrong side Of the
line which divides drunk from sober |;
but Hardy was "royally corned" but
not falling) when they met, about an
hour by sun in the afternoon, near the
rack at which both their horses we're
hitched.
They stopped about four feet apart,
and looked each other full in the face
for about hall minute during all which
time Toby sucked his teeth, winksd, and
made signs with his shoulders and ell.
bows to the by.standers that he knew
Hardy was drunk. and was going to quiz
him for their amusement. In the mean
time, Hardy looked at Tobias, like
polite man dropping to sleep, 10 spite Of
himself. under long, dull story.
Atlength Toby broke silence: y
"How goes il, uncle Hardy?" (winking
10 the company and struggling his shoul.

"Why, Toby! Is that youi Well
