THE WATERS OF LAKE MICHIGAN TO FLOW
WITH THOSE OF THE GULF OF MEXICO.
CHICAGO, June 22.-The great work, un-
dertaken by the city of Chicago some three
yeirs since, Of deepening the summit level
Of the Illinois and Michigan canal, so that
the waters Of Lake Michigan might find
an outlet to the Illinois and thence TO the
Mississippi and tkasGulf, offs nearly com
pletcd and tho II. . waters Of the Lake
will socn displace the foul contents Of the
Chicago River To-day at 1880 o'clock,
the workmcn commenced removing the
MASSIVE stone blocks which cao the walls
of the lock at Bridgeport, and on Saturday
night, the oath, the water will be drawn oil
the canal. Dams will be put in above, and
below the lock, and the north side of the
structure will be entirely removed, and the
channel widened to about forty feet
While this is being done, the lock and the
lower end Of the level will also DC remov-

THE ART OF LIVING wELL--A RI
VAL oE MR.. BRYANT.
From Appleton.' Journl

From Appleton-' JournL II.
We copied in recent number of the
Journal an account given by the poet
Bryant of the mode Of life which he had
pursued for my years. and to which may
fairly be attributed his remarkable health
of mind and body at a very advanced age.
A Georgian, who processes to be 80 years
Of age and carpenter by trade, has been
moved by Mr.. Bryant's letter to give his
own method Of preserving health, which
is somewhat different from that of the
poet. He says:
81 get up about five in the morning,
drink about six or eight drinks of good.
solid corn whisky by about eight o'clock.
By that time have lacked of and dressed
about five hundred feet Of plank, more or
less, then take breakfast.
"My breakfast is generallya smothered
chicken and stcwed catfish or two or three
trout; sometimes two or three shad, with
becfsteak and ham and fried eggs, with two
or three dozen boiled eggs, fifteen or
twenty batter cakes, with little coffee or
tea--say about six or eight cups-just us
| feel about the number Of cups. then joint
tongue and groove the plank about one
| o'clock l am ready for putting up or
down, at which time l dine.
| my dinner is not Away the same; but
generally l take about three or four quarts
| Of turtle or pea soup, small baked pig or
q roasted goose sometimes quarter of u
LIANT or kid, green, beans, peas, onions,
eschalots, potatoes, cabbage, and other like
vegetables, by which time l have drunk
about fifteen or twenty drinks Of old, solid
e)rn whiskey. After dinner / put up or
down my plank, MS the case may be; take
few drinks during the time say about
twelve or fourteen.
IL then take the last meal, which is gen.
orally called tea; don't use any meat; drink
| about six quarts of good buttcrmilk, with
| about one and half or two pounds 4
light bread take about four drinks to
hold it steady, lay down about eight, and
rest better than If l hnd crowded my
stomach. then rest we'll, dream pleasant
dreams, and rise early again.
| "This has been my mode of living
through life. l am stout and active ;
weigh from two hundred nm sixty to two
hundred and seventy-fve pounds; health
fine. My head is as black as gander's
back. am not very extravagant in using
tobacco; only use about two or three plugs
day, say ono and half pounds; smoke
SONS and chew the balan that like
the weed; use it only to keep my flesh
down
