1t is said that the Emperor Of China en-
ploys physicians only to keep him in health
To them he commits his mode of living, and
as long as his health is preserved he pays them
well for their services; but If he is taken sick.
woe betide his physiciansl Then they uust
attend for nothing, and perhaps receive pun.
ishment besides. The plan of his Celestial
Majesty is not devoid OF reason and sound
policy. The most seasonable and important
good physician can do us, is to keep us IN
health.His prescriptions to this end should be
as anxiously followed, as any he may order a
a sick bed.
1t IS Judiclous arrangement for eyery fam
lily to select its physician, and commit to hin
the care of the health of its members. H.
should call frequently to ascertain the santa
ry condition Of the family, and if he ascer
tains any cause Of danger from disease, give
the inmates timely professional warning
As soon as his curative skill is needed III any
case, let him be applied to in season. wmch
in very many cases would probably prevent
6t of sickness. A large share OF the diseases
with which poor human nature is afflicted
micbt have been prevented by an early call
mon a iudicious physician. Who had no,
rather pay the doctor for preventing, iathel
than curing ''the thousand nameless ills
which human flesh is heir to?" "An ounce
ofpreseution Is worth pound Of cure"

The Wool Growers, Conyen,;o,,


We are sorry to see that the Wool Growers
Convention, held at Augusta on the oath inst,
made no distinction bteween the long woods
tor which we are absolutely dependent upon
foreign growers and the common wools with
which our farmers can fully supply the mar
ket. II would seem to be in accordance with
sound policy to admit the former at mod
crate tariff and exclude the latter. The fol-
lowing resolutions were adopted: '
Resolued, That sheep industry ought to be
encouraged among us, not only as direct
means OF support, but as also indirectly tend
ing to maintain and increase the productive.
ness of our soils.
Resolued, As the deep conviction of all pres.
ent, that sheep husbandry cannot be safely en-.
tered upon Or advised as the tariff upon wool
now is. -trtff =. =
ReS0lUed, AS our own convictions, and we
believe also that of all the most intelligent
sneep growers IN the State, that just protec-
ton to the wool growing interest of New Eng
land requires that there should be laid upon
imported woods an import duty not less than
that proposed by the Cleveland Convention.
ResolUed, That the the interests of the wool
grower and of the manufacturer of woolen
goods ought not to conflict with each other
and that the import duty on wooden goods
should be sufficient to secure to our manufac-
tHrers the home market for the same.
Resolued, That the delegation in Congress
from this State be requested to take all fair
means to procure the enactment of law in
accordance with the spirit of the foregoing
resolutions. rf5f e.-t -.5,srr r.ff>,..
RESOLVED, That the Secretaries be directed to
forward to each Of our Senators and Repre-
sentatives in Congress copy of these reso-
lutiOns.
Resolued, That we advise the wool growers
and WOODEN manufacturers to hold meetings al
central points in different parts of the State
for the discussion of matters pertaining to
the protection OF their several interests, and
for the instruction of the people relating to
such matters.
