The stomach and the Mind,

Much Of our conduct depends no doubt
upon the character of the food we eat.
Perhaps, indeed the nature Of our meals
govern the nature of our impulses, more
than we are inclined to admit, because none
of Us relish well the abandonment of our
idea of free agency. Bonaparte. used to
attribute the loss of one Of his battles to
a poor dinner, which at the time disturbed
his digestion. How many Of onr mi$judg-
ments--how macy of our deliberate errors
---how mauy Uf our uUkindneSses, our cruel
ties our acts of thOughtIessneSS and feck-
lessnesS, may be aclu luaily owing 10 cause
Of the same character We eat something

Through the stomaChic nerve that derange-

mon result oi an over.iudugenee ia whole

mount of statistics we're given, and the
general conclusions deduced were, that con-
sumption prevails most in climates Of high
temperature and moist atmosphere, and in
those which are characterized by great
variations in the daily temperature. The
localities where consumption prevails least
are those whore the cold is extreme those
which have a cool and dry atmosphere, aud
those which have a high temperature, With
q moderate amount of moisture. The ot-
mosphere Of Kansas, New Mexico and the
western plains is peculiarly favorable to
consumptive people Op account Of its parity
and dryness. In any locality confinement
to indoor air produces or aggrayates the
disease, aud it is for this reason that it is
much more prevalent among women than
men. The period Of It's greatest mortality
| is between the ages Of twenty and thirty
In New York city the proportion Of deaths
by consumption has diminished in forty
years from one in every $40 to one in
l9 $40 While consumption prevails here
to such All alarming extent, 10 England,
where more equable climate exists, The
proportion of deaths from this disease is
much higher than in America This might,
however, be owing tn the humidity of the
atmosphere there. Mere temperature or
the difference of few degrees of latitude
has little to do with its prevalence. Of
