propose travelling, which: we repu6lishf:
Take oue-fourlh more money than yourSac
tua1lestimated expenses. = 81
Unless#You= have an Inadvertently large bank
account, it is better, perhaps, on the whole,Sto
take all you can lay hands on. Nobody knows
what chances for.speculating may turn up.
ssAcquaint yourself with the geography of
Ithcronte andlregion Of travel;
Exactly. He who knows where he is going
and in what manner, has s6fty per cent: Adyant-
|agc over the ignoramns. Consult railroad tables
carefully, and ask Of travellers who have been
over The road as TO route and hours of starting.
Many azman7 through ignorance COOS the worst
and dearest road.
tttHave good supply of small change, and
have no billlor piece higher than ten dollars,
that you may not take counterfeit change
Say ffve--and be particular in looking at
what money you get--es specially in New York.
$50 arrange as to have busa single article of
luggage to- look after!
Don't yon wish that you may soarrangeait,
especially if you are to travel with ladies?
Dress substantially; better be too hot for
two ortthree hours at noon, than &c. be too cool
for the remainder ofthe twenty-four.''
Sense ITSELF And dress for travel--not for
looks Nothing looks better in travelling than
iplain clothes, and nothing so snobbish US full
dress
Arrange, under all circumstances, TO be at
the place Of starting fifteen or5twenty minutes
before the time, thus allowing for unavoidable
or unanticipated detention on the5way.''
Good again. OF stitches ia time which save
nine, there is nonclike being in time in the
cars or steamboat. Pickpockets always wait
for the last rush-Cor the eleventh hour ninnes,
who crowd around the office to buy tickets, and
then rush to jump the ferry.
''Do not commence days travel before
breakfast, even if that has to be eaten at day
light Dinner or supper, both, can be more
healthfully dispensed with than a good warm
breakfast"
a good rule, much followed in Europe, is
never TO go outofthe house without first taxi
ing at least a.cnp ofcotfec. tits very injurious
to health to exercise before breakfast without
at least that precauton. Take something, at
IaIlzevents, before going out.
"Putzyour purse and watch IN your pocket,
and all =undery our pillow, and yoa will not be
likely to sleave either
Say your pantaloons we have known men
in warm weather to forget not only watch and
purse, but also their walstcoat, as easily as 81
b." forgets his old friends. But pantaloons are
much less likely to be forgotten.
TnE Richmond papers have been quite silent
about the recent "afFair of honor between
Wise and Aylett. The Dispatc1, however, has
this paragraph abontit, from which we learn
that Wise had quite narrow escape. we
| think that Q. Jennings had better say his pray
ers now, and conclude TO lead better life than
he has been doing for some time back:
Messrs. o. Jennings Wise and p. II. Az
lett, accompanied by their respective friends,
Colonel j. Z. Davis and William Old, Jr.,
met yesterday morning. in North Carolina,
short distance from Danville. a ftcr the usual
Ipreliminaries, the combatants took their posi-
tionS, thirty feet apart, and at the giving of
1.-THE word, Mr.. Aylett fred his bali passing
within aboutan#inch.o of the shoulder of his an.
tagonist Mr.. Wise then raised his pistol and
.fired in the air. The friends of the latter then
advanced and inquired whether Mr.. Aylett aud
! his friends demanded another shot, to which
/ negative reply was given. An effort was then
made for. an adjustment of the difficulty, upon
terms honorable to both parties, but Mr.. Wise
Edecined making any arrangement until he had
anopportunity to consult other friends, in this
/ city. Theyzall returned TO Richmond in the
Danville train, att o'clock yesterday afternoon.
I Alarge number of the personal friends of each
