1t is much to be regretted that while in the
enjoyment Of health, so little attention is paid
by many, to the preservation Of 50 inestmable u
blessing. Luxurious living habits Of Incidence,
exposure to sudden change Of temperature. and
neglect of the premonory symptoms of disease;
are the precursors of many fatal maladies. Taken

BALTIMORE.
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 3, 1861.

The sectional differences between the North and
the South, or, more properly speaking, between
the free and the slave States, do not appear to be
approaching any nearer towards adjustment.
In the State of Connecticut which of all the
Northern States has heretofore been most strongly
opposed to the doctrines of the Abolition party,
so far from yielding anything or making any ap-
proach to what could be deemed concession, the
people have indicated a disposition to advance in
the opposite direction. The returns of the late
elections show that the ranks of the Republicans
have been increased by an accession of portion
of the Opposition party. No sign has been given
of any desire for reconciliation, or for recon-
struction of the UNION, by pacific measures. AL
though manufacturing State, and interested in
the preservation Of the Southern market for it:
merchandise Connecticut has shown no wish tc
overthrow or reduce the power of the Abolition
Republican party, but, on the contrary has
strengthened it.
The daily exchange. [volume] (Baltimore, Md.) 1858-1861, 1861-04-03

attention has been attracted to the subject con-
tains an interesting statement of the history and
merits of the Essays the preservation of which,
even in part is one OF the most curious pieces of
literary accident that we remember.
An anecdote which Professor OWEN relates, in
connection with HUNTERS maltfarious and Won
derful abors, is not without interest, as showing
that the spirit which imprisoned CALICO in italy,
was not altogether out of fashion in England,
at the close of the eighteenth century. 1t appears
that HUNTER had prepared careful paper, upon
an interesting branch of geological enquiry, and
had communicated it the Royal Society. In COM
mentng upon certain geological phenomena, he
had spoken of "tho usands of years." as requisite
for their development. This phrase, which sug-
gested chronology of the earth, altogether differ
ent from that commonly received, attracted the
attention Of some Fellows of the Society, and was
made the subject Of consideration by the Council
of Secretaries. Upon examining the second d.
vision of the memoir, these worthless discovered, to
their dismay, that HUNTER had not only extended
his ideas to thousands of centuries, !" but had
directly questioned the sufficiency of the Mosaic
Deluge, to account for the fossil phenomena of
which he treated. 1t was therefore politely re-
commended to him that he should submit his
manuscript to friendly revision, before presenting
it to the Society for formal acceptance, and the
distinguished geographer, Major RENNELL, was made
the interpreter of the misgivings of the learned
authorities. RENNELL discharged the task as del
cately as he could-professed that he had himself
"no quarrel with any opinions relating to the
antiquity of the globe" but suggested that there
was "a description of persons, very numerous
'and very respectable in every point but theil
''pardonable superstitions, who would dislike any
''mention of specific period that assembled beyond
''six thousand years" He therefore begged
with submission" that HgNTER would say
''many thousand years. instead of "centuries, u
and put the minds of the livery respectable" PEG
pie referred to, at rest. HUNTER natural,
enough, declined accommodating the 'sdislike'' O
his friends at the expense of his discoveries and HI
was compelled to withdraw his paper. Such wa
the Royal Society in 1898. Happily for the grea
naturalist, it was not the epoch of dungeons anC
thumb-screws. The memoir referred to was tn
latest and most interesting of HUNTERS writings
and it has not come to light, until science ha
established, and the thinking world accepted, thu
truths he was forbidden to disclose, through III
most learned association of his contemporaries,
