Resting After Meals.

A friend OF the writer's who has sule cd
from dyspepsia during almost her entire life,
considers the suggestions in the following
extracts from an article in recent issue of
the Journal Ct HedM to be the most in ac-
cord with her own experience Of anything on
the subject lately published
Hurried eating of meals, followed immed-
lately by some employment that occupies
the whole attention and takes up all, or
nearly all of of the physical energies is sure
TO result in dyspepsia in one form or another
Sometimes it shows itself in excessive irr-
liability, sure indication that nerve force
has been exhausted the double draught in
order to digest the food and carry on the
business has been more than nature could
stand without being thrown out OF balance.
In another case, the person is exceedingly
dull as soon as he has few minutes of leis-
ure. The mind seems dead blank and can
only move in its accustomed channels, and
tlen only when compelled. This, also, is an
indication of nervous exhaustion. Others
will have decided pains in the stomach or a
sense of weight, as if a heavy burden was in
side. Others again will be able to eat moth
ing that will agree with them everything
that is put inside the stomach is made the
subject of violent protest on the part of
that organ, and the person suffers untold

rhn ln.... coneluded as Follows -


The letsot concluded as follows -
1T is the unionist and not the members of
the Government who are fighting for the
liberties of the Irish people. Even if Mr..
Parnell were immortal, or if his party rep
resented far larger numerical majority of
the Irish people than it really does, neither
he nor they would have right to dispose OF
the constitutional rights of Ireland. =
We do not desire to see Ireland reduced to
the condition of being but a tributary prov
ince and banished from the imperial councils
Neither can we see her endowed with pow
ers over her own people which no civilized
government ought to have or ask. We de.
sire TO see her continue sharing in the delib-
erations which the eloquence of her sons has
so often adorned"
The above if it have any integrity or can
dor about is letter which throws a new
color upon things It affords glimpse o
practical aid to the Irish from the conserva
tive side of British politics from the hidder
power of men like the Duke of Argyll anC
Lord Harrington, who though liberals an,
now hand in hand with Mr.. Gladstone's or
ponents are high-minded and candid enough
to declare in the hour of victory their wis
and intention of helping the Irish.

bathing in warm water.

The Sanitary World considers cleanliness
not only essential to good health, but also a
mark Of good breeding The workman. by
the clinging of dust to his perspring person,
becomes a fit subject for the bathing tub fire.
quently too frequent bathing, however, is
weakening. 1t may not be advisable to take
bath morning and evening, as some medi
cal journals advise but there should be a
good washing frequently enough to keep the
person clean. Warm baths will often pre-
vent the most virulent diseases. A person
who may be iu fear of having received inrec-
tion OF any kind should take warm bath
suffer perspiratiun to cnsuc and then rub
dry. lie is advised to dress warmly to guard
against taking cold. If the system has inn
bbed any infectious matter, it will be re-
moved by resoItng to the warm bath if the
latter is taken before the infection has time
to spread over the system and even if some
time has elapsed, the dtenching perspiration
that may be induced by hot water will be
very certain to remove it, In cases of con-
gcstion, bilious collie. Inflammation, &C.,
there is no remedy more certain to give relief
| than hot bath. In eases of obstinate CON
stipatiOn also wonderful cures have been
wrought. For sore throat, dipthera and in
flammation of the lungs, hot compress is
one Of the most puteut remedies.

SATURDAY JULY IL, 1856.
GIadsfone's Fall.

AS predicted in last Saturdays issue of
this journal the defeat of Mr.. Gladstone has
resulted in the probable formation Of coal
ition Ministry whose leaders will be the Mar
qus of Salisbury, Lord Harrington, Mr..
Goschen and Mr.. Chamberlain.
The formation of such cabinet distinctly
indicates the fact that the Irish question will
receive primary attention at the hands of the
new Government and consideration also
that portends very favorably towards fair
and just settlement of the troublesome ques-
tion.
Among the numerous interesting phases
of present affairs is most noticeable the open
statement made by some of the most prom
inent English statesmen. Til swords of the
Duke of Argyll in this connection are most
significant and will attract considerable at
tention in this country. 1t must be remem.
bered that he stands on the other side of the
question: against Mr.. Gladstone. A close
scrutiny of his words are therefore well
worthy of the attention of Americans who
are always desirous of conceding fair play
and an open field to all. The quotation il

BRUTAL CRIME.
A Jealous HuSband's Attack ON His
Wtfe's Brother.

An infamous crime was committed
yesterday morning in Center a. ley, be-
tween Washington and Poplar. A
negro named Albert Newton, jealous
OF his wife, so cruelty assaulted her
that she was obliged to take shelter in
the house OF Der brother. Taylor More,
whom Newton believed to have
been on intimate terms with
his wife, then came in for his
share of punishment and was so holly
sssailed with bricks that he had to fly
for his life. The house in which his
wife had taken refuge was then at
tackled by Newton. He tried to make
HE wife's fourteen-yesr-old brother,
Albert Nance, tell where she was hid
den, and upon his refusal kicked him
several times in the abdomen, leaving
him for dead. He fled, but was pur-
sued, captured, and lodged in Jail in
d sfault of bail.

Chelsea was shocked yesterday m orn-

DR.. s. H. Brown, lying upon its face
in the door-yard OF Mr.. William Getz,
a butcher, living on the Randolph

cry was made by a gardener, Fritz
Volmar, who was passing along the

quest was held by Justice Powell,
and the jury arrived at the
conclusion that apoplexy was the
cause. How he happened to 90 into

The subject of taxing drummers is

action Of the State OF Mississippi inn
posing such tax, a law that has been
pritsated against by many towns in
Mississippi refusing TO add a corporate

traveller goes wherever business offers,
unmindful Of State lines, and his bust
