The thought of the savory stew made
the negro forget himself, and in spreading
the out feast to the imagination, his arm
relaxed, when oft hopped the rabbit, and,
squatting at a goodly distance eyed bis
late owner with great composure. The
negro knew there was aq end of the matter,

Mad Doos. We can scarcely pickup an ex
change in which we do not find a notice
of
persons being bitten by mai dogs or terrible
deaths from hydrophobia. Many remedies ara
given in different papers, all ot which pro
fess to be certain cures. We think the best
way to prevent occurrences of this kind is to
kill all dogs, which are no't muzzled. Should a
rabbid dog make his appearance where there
are always so many children on the streets.
the consequence would be fo terrible to antic!
pate. Let our citizens act in the .matter be
fore it is too late.
Wht is Nkeded. We need for our dwell
ings more ventilation and less heat ; we need
more out door exercise, more sunlight, more
manly, athelctio, and rude Bpoits; we need
more amusements, more holidays, more froli
and noisy, boistrous mirth. Our infants need
better nourishment than colorless mothers nan
tver furnisk ; our children need more romping
and less study. Our old men more quiet, and
ear'ier rel xation from the labors of life. All
men, both young and old, neel less medicine
