SUFFER EATISG.-The theory ofSir Charles

should be the principal daily meal, in order
to secure perfect health, is confirmed by the
following extract from q recent English pa

The perils of good living to persons of
sedentary habits are not very s.rikingly exhi-
btei in the history of Rev. Mr. Davis, rector
Of Staunton.upon.W Wyed, who died at the age
of l05 years. He made a hearty breakfast
of hot rolls, buttered, with large supply of
tea and coffee. His dinner was substantial
and frequently consisted of variety Of dish

always drank wine, but never to excess. lie

thickest. Ifpure, as it appears, it contains
about five hundred tons of pure metal, and is

VALUE OF THE Hay CRoP.-The hay crop
of the Free States in 1856, is estimated by
Mr.. Helper of North Carolina, to exceed in

RUNNING RAILROADS At A HIGH RATE OF
SPEED.--ls portion OF the public desire to
ride at high rate Of speed they should be
willing to pay liberally for the opportunity.
1t is in the experience Of every railroad man.
that the cost of working q road at high
speed increases in acceerating ratio A
train running forty miles per hour costs at
least four times as much as train running
twenty miles per hour. The wear and tear
of tue rails and machinery at high speed is
tremendous. One express passenger train
will do more damage to the road and equip
age than ten heavy freight trains at the low
speed usually adopted. Here, then, is un-
doubtedly the rock upon which our railroad
system has splt--workng too cheap and at
too high rates of speed. The only course left
to be taken is to develope the business OF the
various roads, work them with the strictcst
economy, and only at paying rates.

The SPIDER AND THE ToAD.-The following
singular relation is furnished by correspon-
dent of the Boston Traveller us having been
witnessed by a person now living, though
occurring more than forty years ago, about
sixteen miles from this city: "'rhe narrator
said that while walking in the field he saw
large field spider, considered Of the most
venomous species, contendng with a common
sized toad. The spider being very quick in
its movements, would get upon the back of
the toad and bite it, when the toad with its
forepaw, would drive off the spider 1t
would then hop to q plantain, which was
growing near by, aud bite il, and then return
to the spider. After seeing this repeated
several times, and noticing that each time
the toad was bitten it went to the plantn. the
spectator thought he would pull up the plan.
tain and watch the result. lie did so. Be-
ing again bitten and the plantain not to be
found, the toad soon began to swell and show
other indications Of being poisoned, and died
in short time. If the plautain, which
grows so abundantly near almost every dwell
ing in this vicinity, was such an immediate
and etfectual remedy to the toad for the bite
of the spider, can we not reasonably infer
that it would be an eiTectual cure for man for
the bite of the same insect"

New York, July 13.
Another disgraceful riot occurred this af-
ternoon, in the Seventeenth Ward, of q very
serious character.
A mob of FIVE hundred, chiefly composed
OF Irish and Germans attacked the Metro
peltan police with missiles and firearms
The police were driven back, as were also a
squad sent to their relief. Another detach-
ment of one hundred men was Immediately
sent to the scene Of conflict, and requisition
was made for detachment of the military.
The riot was premeditated, but was not to
take place until night, when it was intended
to commence with an attack on the Seven
teenth Ward station house.
10 o'clock, Z. M.-The rioters have been
fighting among themselves the whole after
noon, occasionally attacking strangers who
ventured among them, and several persons
we're badly beaten on the supposition that
they were policemen in disguise.
-Four or five hundred policemen are on the
ground. and the military are held in reserve
at the Arsenal. 1t is reported that a men,
ber of the Common Council and an ex-Police
officer are active among the rioters.
There was no quorum of the City Council
this evening, and in consequence the police
are still debarred from the use of the police
stations.
Mayor Wood is not to be found.
AT the last accounts, matters were com.
parative!y quiet.
The riot commenced in consequence of or
attempt made by Coroner Perry to hold ar
inquest upon the man killed yesterday. the

HARVEST IN PENSsyLvANIA.-The last

ut is now the 10th of July and the grain
has scarcely commenced to color II we had
continued cloudy and damp weather, farmers
dare not commence cutting their grain be-
fore the 10th or 25th Of the month. The
prospect for an abundant wheat harvest never
bid fairer than it does now, the only danger
to be apprehended at this late day, is the rust
which we trust it may escape"
The Green county Republican says:
"The wheat crop, We are told by our far
mers, was never better; very large amount
was sown last fall, and it is said there will be
more wheat harvested in this county this
year than has been within the memory of the
Oldest inhabitants. The weeyil, as yet, has
done but little damage
