ALL FOR TIE BEsT.-Dr johnson
used to say that a habit of looking at
the best side of every event is better
than thousand pounds year. Bishop
Hall quantity remarks, For every bad

man breaks his leg, let him be thankful
that it was not his neck" When Fen.

This is the true spirit of submission
one of the most beautiful traits that

TO see this world on its sunny side, and
you have almost half won the battle oil
life at the outset.

The Banting letter, which excites SO
much comment, among the corpuhnt IN
England has, been repnblished in this
country. Boston, the frat to follow any
ism, is already deeply interested in tire
theory. BantiDg, became enthusiasts
over the advice of his physician, where.
by he lost fifty pounds of fat. The
principle consists in the avoidance Of
starchy and socc' arine food, and Substi-
tuition of meat, fish, and acid fruits, tea
and liquors, (without milk or sugar ad
libium. A more certain way to reduce
persons in flesh has been discovered by
the rebel prison keepers, as many re-
turned prisoners can testify.

Heart Disease and Tobacco.


NJ. Decaisne, in a communication to
he Academic des Sciences, exhibits an
other clause in the heavy bill of indict-
,nent against the abuse of tobacco. Fl
tates that in the course of three years
he has met, among eighty three iuvet-
crate smokers, twenty.one instances o.
marked intsrmittanes Of tho pulse, oc-
curing in men from 81 to AZ years OF
'ge, add not to he explained by organic
lesion of the heart. The absence Of
such lesion or other conditions of health
capable of inducing intermission Of
tho heart, and the fact that in nine Of
these instances, in which the use Of
tobacco was abandoned, the normal &C
tion of the system was restored, NJ
Decaisne believes, will justify him in
con cluding that in certain subjects the
abuse of tobacco may give rise to a con
dition which may be termed "narcotsn
Of the heart" characterized by inter
mission in the movements of that orgOr
and in the pulsations of the radica
artery and that, in some cases, sus
pension or diminutiOn in the practic'
of smoking is sufficient to cause an en-
tire Disappearance of this irregularity
