Suspend your scythes—Lean upon your pitchforks —Stick your take* in the sod, and while thr refrcthing pitcher goes meirily round, listen to Neighb ur Wintnw's advice upon drinking. 0 Fellow Labourers, WHEN we iweat mod, we third rao ft, and dmik rtbft abundantly—You will all pronounce that hquurbelt, which make* you raoft Itrong and healthy. , 0 Then do not drinks—The body in Hit* ful ry season being extremely heated, acts like a still, the rum immediately fl.es off, and the heavy, dammy dregs of the beer and sugar, temain to clog the ttomack, render the laborer dull and weak, and of ten excite inflammatory disease. Do not drink -.oddy or milk punch, for the fame reaion. If rum, brandy, whiflcy, gin or other ardent fpints must be drank, take half a gill at a time, ui.mixed, and immediately drink large draughts of water after it. For the fame reason, when a man is crack brained enough to throw a fire brand into a magazine of powder, .he cannot do better, than to throw water upon the burning coals a* fact fc, potiiblf. Drink Switehel, that is, molaffw or maple fu. lar mixed with water. Diink whey, or milk and water, two-third* wa ter—spruce or small bear. Diink cider. Not boiled—if you would be merry, but cider and water, if you would be thy, happy and wife. The acid in cider i* the belt preventive againll all putrid diforderi. Drink vinegar and water so. the fame reason. JJrink fiure water—You have been told fright ful Hone* about people wh.ie fat has been cooled, andwho have died luddenly by drinking cold wa. lot, 2V ? f n ' he fu "' half " hour bcf <^ Uh the eoM y ° Ur m ° Uth ,hrfC ° r four time » •wh the coldelt water and you may then drink much colder than your bodie* it will then do vou mal "W' ,? rt ' U S th<:n and quicken your ani mal function,.

If y<, u I want to know how'great, and infpcft your ac : counts at the ti jidcis, if not iliento my ealculatien. Sey the hay-season lasts, taking the after growth into the calculation, one month, lay that you have three hands to work—allow tbem each half a pint of rtim each day. This will amount, by a tough calculation, to lix gallons, which at twelve fhiHings a gallon fur Wtll-lndti mm, would cost twelve dol , lars, beftdcs (he expence of sugar. New-England rum, it is true, would be something left, but bran dy something more. Now the fuai of twelve dol lars in thcfe hard times, w mid do many valuable things for a farmer—it might purahafe three calves, which would treble in two years. It would pay the minifteiial, the town, the countj or state taxes of a small farmer. It would buy many a comfort able mattei for his wife whn (he blefles him with the ri> h present of a sturdy boy, or healthy gid. It might effect a valuable fwopin oxen, or perhaps pay two or three small notes or accounts, or such patt of them as may prevent the lawyer from mak ing two or three bills of cot, each larger than the original debt, and to save the favourite mare, or the lik ly two year old colt, from being taken by the fheriff, and fold for h.ilf their value at thepoft. But some of you, fellow-labourers, drink strong liquors when you work out as we do now, because yoa fay they cost you nothing ; and you are ready to call your employers stingy who wilh to discoun tenance the use of spirits. You are millaken, my friends, every gill of rum given to you by those, who hire yoa, colls yo» much. Sometimes it colls you a quarrel with your best friends, fumetimes a bloody nose, or btoken limb, and often n lawsuit, and ,bill of cost, or a fine up on confi ffi.ui, before a juttice of the peace, tor as sault an.l battety ; and often a long doctor's bill for a disorder, which yru may riot, but the physi cian knows arose from this very caufc of (hong li quors. Sometimes it costs you the refpeft of your t wnfmen j the regard of your children, and lo»e of \ our wife. Sometimes your reputation is this world, and I fear, your happiness in the next. Are not these heavy colls, friends ! 1 lius spoke Jotham Wiurow, to • gang of hay* n»akers, in my uncle Jotham's meadow. The whole gang immediately cried out, 44 Jotham Win. row lias spoken •wifely''—They clubb'd upon the spot, and sent aby to the next grog (hop for a humming pttcher of flip, and ordered half a pint more, than the usual quantity of rum to be ftiired into it, and aH with one accord got tipfey by drink ing the health of the wife'Jotham Winrow.

Schenetlady is a handsomely situated little town on the banks of the Mohawitj river. At this place 1 took an open boat, naviga* ted by three men, in which I pafied to Lake On tario, without any other interruption than two (hort portages, one at the little falls of half a mile, round which they are now cutting a canal; the other of one mile, at Fort Stanwix, about one hundred miles well of Schetuflady ;at which place we leave the Mohawk river, and defceud the torrent to 01- «ne hundred miles mor'e to the weft, where the British hold a poll at the entrance of Lake On tario, commanded by a captain. The high price which hatters' furs at prclent command in the Uni ted States, is the only inducement 1 conceive for fmuggliag pa ft the poll, for cxcept a few articles imported from the Ealt Indies, 1 found the retail (hops at Kingftonand Niagara, felling as low, and . many articles, pafticularly woolens, lower than in the city of Philadelphia* From Ofwego, rclTels fail to Niagara, King-.
