lNTRRcUURsB AT THE lABLE.-Io meet at the
breakfast table, father, mother, children, ali
we'll ought to be happiness to any heart; it
should be o source OF humble gratitude, and
should wake up the warmest feelings Of our ma.
ture. Shame upon the contemplate and lowbred
ones, parent or child, that eau ever come to the
breakiast-table, where the family have met in
health, only to frown, and whine, and growl, and
fret. 1t is pTima fdeie evidence of mean, and
grovelling, and selfish, and degraded nature,
wheresoever the ohurl may have sprung. Nor
is il less repreheDsible to make such exhibitions
at the tea-table, for before the morning comes,
some of the circle may be stricken with some
deadly disease, to gather round that table not
again forever.
Children in good health, If left to themselves
at the table, become, after few mouthfuls,
garrulous and noisy, but II twithin at all reason
aole or bearabe bounds, it is better to let them
alone; they eat less because they do not eat 80
rapidly as if compelled to keep silent while the

digestion and assimilation. The extremes of
society curiosly meet in this regard. The tables
of the rich and the mobiles Of England are models
of mirtb, wit and bonhommie it take hours to
get through repast, and they live long. II
anybody will look in upon the negroes OF we'll.
to-do family in Kentucky while at their meals,
they cannot but be impressed with the perfect
abandon Of jabber, cachinaton and mirth it
seems as if they could talk oil day, and they live
long. 1t follows then, that at the family table
all should meet, and do 1t habitually, to make
common interchange of high-bred courtesies, Of
warm affections, Of cheering mirthfulness, and
that generosity Of nature which lifts us above
the brutes which perish, promotive as these
things are of good digestion, high health, and
long life.-HGips journal Of Health.

REvoLUrroNARY pREoEDENTs.

Abundant precedenis can be found in the his
tory of our Revolutionary struggle for all the
actions of the present Administration The
seizure of presses, the apprehension of disafected
persons the searching for arms, were all prac-
tised by our Revolutionary fathers. In their
own language, "such proceedings may be abuu-
dantly justified by the conduct Of the freest ma
lions and the authority of the most iudicious
civilians" Let any one who doubts this read
the following resolutions passed by the Revolu-
tionary Congress, in the year 17T7:
whereas. The States Of Pennsylvania and
Delaware are threatened with immediate Invasion
from powerful array, who have already landed
at the head of the Chesapeake Bay and whereas.
principles of policy and self preservation require
that all persons who may be reasonably suspected
oil aiding or abetung the cause of the enemy may
be prevented from pursuing measures Injurious

States of Pennsylvania and Delaware be request.

States, notoriousty Disg6ected, forthwith to be up

respective States think they may be released

preme Executive Council of the State Of Penn

ResolOea, That it be recommended to the ex-

And that the persons so seized be confined in
such places and treated in such manner as shall

THE CuRATIvE EFFEoTs OF GRAPEs.-Dr.
Herpin, of Metz, has published very interest
ing account of the curative effects of grapes, in
various disorders of the body. They act, firstly,
by introducing Urge quantities Of fluids into the
system, which, passing through the blood, carry
off by perspraton and other exei tions, the efeie
aud injurious materials Of the body secondly,
as vegetable nutritiye agent Employed ra
tonally and methodically, aided by suitable diet
and regimen, the grape produces most important
changes in the system, in favoring transmuta-
tions, in contributing healthy materials to the
repair and reconstruction. OF the various tissues
and in determining the removal of vitiated matters
which have become useless and injurious to the
system Directed by a skilful physician, this
valuable curative agent can be made TO produce
the most varied effect on the constitution II
also possesses the advantage of being acceptable
tO most invalids. The treatment lasts from three
to six weeks. The quantity Of grapes that may
be consumed varies frjm one to four pounds
day, commencing with small quantities, which
are gradually increased. In the absence Of
grapes, dried rnisus, provided quantity of war,
sufficient to satisfy the thirst they excite, by
taken at the same time; or they may be stewed
in the same manner as prunes.
Delaware State journal and statesman., 1861-10-22

STORY OF A ZoUAvE.-They tell story of q
zouave having been asked his opinion of the
English soldiers after the Crimean campaign.
'tAh," said he, ''set them down in an engage
ment ready prepared and well fed, and no men
can fight better but let them get into misery or
distress, and no men know less how TO get them
selves out of it. Par example, our battalion was
encamped beside an English regiment which had
a magnificent buck-goat; the cavalry horses of
their army had no forage, and the poor beast,
getting no food, sickened and died. At this time
the soldiers he belonged to were without rations
to eat, or fire to warm themselves with and
what do you think they did? Why they collected
some boards, made q coffin, and buried the buck.
My comrade and myself, shocked at such waste Of
good things, took the poor animal up that same
night parole dhonReur, we had three good fires
from his coffin, delicious mosses from his fiesh
for seven days, aud for the rest of the campaign
we slept upon his skin, which kept us from damp
and saved us from sickness. Now what think you
of the English soldier after such piece of folly
as this l have my cat, carry him on my sack
and he comes under fire with me, as you may
preceive from his having lost fore foot. l love
and nourish him, and he in return will, should
there be necessity, provide me with two days
good living"
