Now, we would not be understood to say that any one regards dyspepsia With favor, or feels disposed to rank it among the lux uries of life. Far from it. Those who have experienced its torments would scout such an idea: All dread it, and would gladly dispense with its unpleasant kMatk Tapley, who was jolly under alMl . e trying circumstances in which he was placed, ne%lir had an attack of dyspepsia, or his jelity would have speedily forsaken him.

" Wits the summer of we liv ed over the canon I was: telling you' about there were thirty of us in the gang, and we had four tibins with a storehouse, which were public prop erty. NVe worked hard on week days, and on Sundays dittour wash ing, and brought our htlUsework up a little. 1 suppose We should be mill ed a hard set, but we were not and• rougher than men who het a living by themselves for a year,..'or two. "Eight of us earrlped ,tflgether, and each of us had as distinct an individ- uality as though we hiatrepresented different nations. SomelOw or other we had acquirM a robricyuet, which was acknowledged to he characteris tic, and we were called by it in camp to the complete ignorin,T of our own names. 'There was Hal Winterton, a Southerner, and a fiereoj.seeesSionist; we (-ailed him 'South Carolina.' Dave Austin, a Con neet iktt man, and a regular sell, we called 'Nutmeg,' nand le' stuck to Charlie Chapman, for he was , a regular fop.: There was Nud Simpson, a regular 4 Aunt Betty' —you'd know his name at a glimpse without ore saying a word.=Otis Al len would faint if hejaramed his fin ger, or had a sight of blopd. He was `Our Baby.' Jack Umlnnings was a wag, and he certainly deserved his cognomen, 'Jack the Wicked.' Jitn Woodruff was known all over this country by the appellatOn of 'Judge' and your humble servant, from his black eyes, swarthy cornplexion and jetty black locks, perhaps something too, in my manner, was styled 'Sen or.' "Well, we were a good-natured set of fellows, always making allOWances for each other's" peettlianties, and never having any friction in camp. Sometimes I used to think we joked `Aunt Betty' and 'Oui9.laby' rather umbercifully, but one word from our 'Judge' would straighten us at once. "If one was sick, weal! took a turn about in nursing and watching, but the 'Judge' 4'as always near to do it. Tender and patient as a woman, we all honored him, and held shim in a little higher estimation than we did any one else in our camp. "I forgot to tell you that a month before, and when 'Aunt Betty' and 'Our Baby' were not of our number, we had in their place Will BrOwning who was equal to two men any day. Good to work and good to play, as smart as need be, and true to the core. I think most any of us would have been glad to have gone with Will over the mountains; but he&tid, 'No, stay where you are boys; you are doing well; and if I find anything better, I will let you know at once; then come, all hands of you, and it will be a jolly time when we get to gether again.' "You know it wasn't the pleasant est traveling in the world, getting around two years ago. •'\Ve hadn't heard a word from Will, though he had been gone for a long time. Several letters had come for him, but, of course we couldn't forward ; them, having no idea of his whereabouts, and we had come to the conclusion that he would walk in upon us sometime dead, broke, and cured of his roving dkiosition. \%e had finished work one day, andstip wd off 'three B's,' as we called °dr beans and bacon and bread the table stood just Where we had left it, for you know miners are not very fasti dious in their - notions. We were sit ting on a long bench which.reached across the euil of our rude cabin, talking over our day's work, and speculating on what the boys were "]doing to the left side of us, when, all „id"' once, a young woman stood right :lin our cabin door. "Now, a woman in those days, wets curiosity with bucks here amonk the hills, and there were men in our camp who hadn't set their eyes on one for two years. She stood just looking at us. I don't ,know what the re s t thought, hut 'Aunt Betty' said afterwards 'that it seem ed like a warnin' to some of us,' and he was wondering Who.-ie time had mine. The 'Judge' Na on the end of the bench, anti ho arose and took off his hat.

Add to our rough cos tumes eight. faces unshaven and un shorn for weeks, and you may catch some idea of our general appearance. "The pale light of our sputtering candle added to the weirdness oP the scene, and when 'Jack the Wicked' murmured: "co your knees, boys, all at once,' I guess we were all wore than half inclined, to obey. The `Judge' recovered himself the quick est, and advanced toward the door. "I wish to see my brother, Will Browning; I heard that he was here,' said the most musical voice I ever heard. was,here a few-months ago," rOplied the `:Judge,' "but I do not know where lie is now. how did you come, and where are your friends?" mute through the valley and shadow of death, 1 should think, for am nearly dead with hunger, and as to friends, I have the gloomiest old teamster you ever saw, though I thought it rare good luck when I found him. and he engaged to bring me. up here to Will. I paid hini every cent of money I had, and I haven't had a mouthful for days, but bad bacon. Is there any !foto! with- in a short distanee? If not, perhaps there is some good women who would let ine stay with her until I can gut some word from Will." "I guess every man hugged to hiniself the tln that she would have to stay with us, even fora short time, and the 'Judge' didn't look very sorry, though he profsed to feel dreadfully for her dilemma. "He said, anil I am sure his full, 'rich voice must have seemed a tower of strength to her, "Will is a dear frhlal of ours, and if you will kindly allow us the honor of protecting his sister, until he can be communicated with, we shall be under obligations to you. We must look odd to you ; but we elaim to be gentlemeu, and I assure we can and will make you emu lona b le." 'She had a perplexed look on her ace when the 'Judge' told her that there was no woman living near ; but she was mistress of the situation iu a moment, and said very demure- ly, though with a rather sly sparkle, 'Oh, I shall he quite comfoftable, but I'm afraid 1 shall trouble you ter ribly." "Every one spoke at once. "No rontolo in the kltst !" And then Dandy bald: "Judge, if you were to introduce us to the lady, she would eel more nt home with us." "The 'Judge' must have been aw fully smitten at first sight, or he nev er would have been guilty of intro- 'hieing us by our camp titles. As it was, he said: "Hiss Browning, let me introduce you to Will's friends, Mr. South Carolina." He advanced as- he was called, and in the most chivalric manner he bowed over the .flY'ssgAtWz l -449,;,.- "He bowed stiffly, and every .w titre but at her. "Aunt Betty, did_you know Will:' I believe you didn't; but he will be a friend to you, all the same, Miss Browning." "You Can bet your life on that, every Bine," said Aunt Betty, and we were all ready to split 'by this time, the 'Judge' looked so dignified, doing the honors of the oeeasion in such a fine manner as he no doubt thought. "lie continued: is Mt. Da n" You should have seen the kill- P 32 hit; bows. By that time she had ta ken in the clrollery of the thing, and when Dandy bowed so profoundly, swept him a courtesy that liked to have finished . him on the spot. "Senor and Will were sworn allies. to call than► David: and \V used Jonathan." • - - "She smiled and asked, "Which lire you?" And for the first and on- ly time in my life I didn't know what to say. but 1 tainwered out, soinv "Either, ma'am." hing like a snicker from the coin ainy, but the 'Judge' had no ears ior eyes for any one but her; su he kept on, and with it wave of his him(' presenteil 'Our Baby."Fhe great si x footer looked for all the world as though he would put up his lip and cry, until Miss Browning said : "How do you do, dear 1 • can he talk?" And then he blurted out ; "My name is Otis Allen." "Jack got the start of them. and steppkng in front of them, said in a tragic manner : "Jack _Wicked—, known all over the Pacific coast for my diabolical acts—and let me assist my friend—this is the 'Judge' a ter ror to all evil doers, and the protec tor of distressed innocence, whenever it may have the good fortune to fall into his hands." "Yes," said the 'Judge,' with the most imperturbable gravity, "and , now you know us all, and must con sider us your most obedient ser vants. "She laughed a low,, rippling laugh and said : ani sure I know all now, and should like to shake hands all round ; it would give me a sort of a home feeling, and you would feel better acquainted too, "she began with the 'Judge,' and he looked, while he held her hand, as thonO/he had been translated." "She's got an awful lot of magne tism about her, 1 tell you; my arm and hand thrill now, when .1.• think of that first hand-clasp. We hadn't, a chair in the whin, but we gave her our best three-legged stool. she look off her jaunty hat and sack, and each one sprang to take them. She didn't seem to notice us, but left theSti ly ing in her chair. She told us site had left some baggage a little way from our house. She had lett it there, she said, so as to walk in upon her dear old Wilt unannounced, and instead of finding him, she had stumbled on such a lot of friends. "Can you give mesomething good to eat?' and she glanced at the ta ble with its scanty remains of slipper. "The table was cleared' ff in a hurry, a plate washed, and a can of chicken opened. 'Aunt Betty' made a cup of tea and attired up some flap jacks, and one.of us thought to scour a knife and fork by running them in the ground several times, Oh, they were lively times, I tell you.. Only the"'Jud_e'—he never- moved, but Inoked at her. She did - not seem to notice him, but watched our opera tions with great Interest. "While she ate—and the quaint ness of the surroundings did not seem to effect her appetite— : we all ' stood around and waited upon" her. I guess there never was a day while She lived with us but that she laugh ed at that first meal she took with us." "We partitioned her off a bed-room in one corner with some blankets, and all but the Judge and Aunt Bea ty went into the same house to sleep. "You'd think whed we'd be likely to lalk over the won we got there ARGUS. derful event, but we didn't; not a Word .was spoken concerning it. But there mei considerable thinking done that night. "Ily light we wet* , all up and pac ing before the cabin. The teamster had given care or the charge he left to us, and all the other boys were over to see hot things were. There wasn't a stroke of work done in the camp that day, and not much for a • week. "Then the Judge called us togeth er and told us it wouldn't do; we were getting demoralized; that Miss Browning was unhappy because she had interrupted our arrangements, and that we must come right down to steady day's Work after that. We tried to, but we never could get back cirt old tunes. There was a good deal if rivalry among us, and we said cut.- iig things sometimes. Judge sent letters in alt directions to Will, but three weeks passed without a word in reply. We had all in turn offered to accompany Miss Browning to San Francisco, but she said she knew no one at that, place; Will would come before long, and he would be disap pointed if she should leave; besttli, hadn't she eight of the very best brothers in the world? She would stay a while longer, and she could help cook, and mend for us, so as not to be too much of a burden to, us. She had a few books she had broueht for Will, and she would read to us evenings. We clime up an hour earlier than usual, and our table was all ready for us, and it had many ah extra touch that none but a wo►han would think of. We were a silent Set of men during the day, but each did his best when he got . home. Stories were told, songs were sung, and her readiness entranced us 'all She always called us by the names that were first given her, and ever so many times she went through the introduction, acting out all of the parts. It se6med funnier to her than it did to us. She ;hiked to South Carolina about the beauties of the Southern sky, and °title flowers and trees, which eclipsed anything *the North. To Nutmeg she praised New Emr,land, and she had some favorite topic to discuss with us. "of course: we wereall iu b". with her, but none dared to boast that he had received any sigti.fif preference from the lady. We had all proposed to her once, and somo.cif us a half a dozen times. She just made light, of it; said we were crazy, and didn't know what we were about; - hut she came to know after a while that we did. "There was open war among us. We all acted like madmen except the Judge; he would not answer any of their taunts, but was most pleasant to all; yet he began to look Teal care worn, and every time he met any of us alone he would say that he wished Will would come soon. lie talked to us about keeping t h e peace, and appealetl to our lino-r as uiun and love for our old ekikurade. Kate, her•self, had quite a little talk with each one, I don't know how she managed it, but she left the impres- shin upon us all that we were most likely th beitieuelited if we behaved ourselves and kept quiet. But it was no go; we could not. "one evening .he refused to sit down with us at the table; little was eaten at that meal. :She walked up and down the room, and said enn• phativally.

I cannot meet one of ypu but what I mu im portuned to marry you; don't you teircipn.. that I cannot marr any one of you, the rest are all . an gry. .Now I ask what shall I do?

"Aunt Betty said:—"lf you .are for Itny of us wake it know, and then the rest shad behave or—there will be a general row." "That's just it; you will fight any way, you are getting to be so savage. In being losers, I am afraid that you have forgotten •to be gentlemen." "Wasn't that a stinger for us? But we didn't feel it then as we. have since. We alt promised not to say a word after her decision s as made known to us. Each - one may have been elated, thinking he was likely to he et en "She sat down and put her face on her arm, but it was only for a nue meat.--Then she said—"l shall ask for two days to think of it. Next Sunday there will he a wedding here and a sup er afterwards, which we will help to prepare. If any one speaks to ine on the subject between this time and th4t. his doom is seal ed." "There was an OldiShAlltill 'over to the other cabin, who seemed to have a fatherly care for Kate. And I might as well say here, that all of us who were unmarried had offered our selves to her and had been refused. "Well, Kate and the old man 'Lowe had a long talk together, and then he went off and did not get back until Sunday, when he brought a minister with him.—There was some kind of service in the afternoon, out under the trees - , but none of us paid much attention. Our eyes were all for Kate, and 'she was crying softly all the time. When it was over She took the preacher's arm, and walked with him some time. Then she went into our cabin, and we all followed. Mean, wasn't - it? But we did not see it in that light, then. . 1 The man took the Bible from h is pocket and said: "This lady tells me that you have given her your promise to abide qui etly by her decision, and to dwell in peace and harmony together. For her sake you can not object to come here, one by one, and take an oath" that I shall dictate. It is that you reiterate the promise with a hand on this sacred book." .

The old custom milled Bundling has been recently Made the subject of a careful examination by Dr. Henry Reed Stiles, who publishes the re sults of his investigations in a little volume entitled Bundling, its (Irig 'Progress, and Petline in A ineriea- Kniekertxx.ker Publishirv , Comp. fix). The practice originated, as Dr. Stiles pretty clearly proves, in the want of ample sleeping accommoda tions in a primitive state of civiliza tion, and difficulty of keeping warm during a long winter's evening while sitting by the fireside atone. To this day it prevails in Scotland, Wales, and England ; among the poorer classes; anti something similar to it has, been observed in Holland, where it is called gueeding, and he Switzer land. Among savage nations it is not uncommon for young women to rf-Avive and converse with their suit- 4 ors at nifflit in their sleeping apart ments. s' fhat it was common in New England during the last century, Dr. Stiles demonstrates beyond question, though he concedes that it never had the sanction of the more refined class of people, and long ago died out. He cites instances, however, of its tee ing practised within a comparatively recent period in New Jersey and Pennsylvania among the Dutch and their descendants, and it may per haps exist to this day in the more re tired districts of those States. A !wog other authorities, I )r. Stiles refers to a letter written by I.ieut. A übury, a British officer who served in this country during the Revolu tionary War. The letter is dated at Cambridge, Nov. 21), 1777, ani t l the writer says: "The night before we Paine to this town Williamstown, - Mass.,) being quartered at a small log hut, I was (xm vinced in how innocent a view the Americans look upon that indelicate custom they call bead/mg. Though they have remarkable good feather beds, and are extremely 'ilea and clean, still I preferred my hard mattress, as being accustomed to it ; this evening, however., owing, to [tie badness of the roads and the weakness of my tnare; my servant had not arrived with my baggage at the time for retiring to rest. There being only two beds 111 the house, I inquired which I NV 11 , 4 to sleep iii, when the old woman replied, 'Mr. Ensign,' here I should ohAerve to you that the New England people are very Inquisitive as to the rank you have in the army ; 'Mr. Ensign,' says she, 'our Jonathan and I will sleep in this, and our Jemima and you shall sleep in that.' I was much astonished at such a proposal, and of fered to sit up all night, when Jonathan immediately replied, 'Oh, la! Mr. En ; Rim you won t be the first man olif Jenitma has bundled with, will it, Jet/li ma?' when little Jemima, who, by the by, was a very pretty. black-eyed girl, of 'about sixteen or seventeen, archly re plied. 'No, father, not by man!,l but it will be with the first Britainer' the name they give the Englishmen I." The Rev. Samuel Peters is also noted i., saying of the women of - • • •‘ , ont at-1 1v ite lady," and as speaking of baw ling as follows: "Notwithstanding the modesty of the females is such that it, would be account ed the greatest rudeness for a untleman to speak before a lady of a garar, knee, or leg, yet it is thought but a piece of , civility to ask her to bundle a custotrit as old as the first settlement in I6:14. It is certainly innocent, virtuous, and pru dent, or the Puritans would not have permitted it to prevail among. their offspring, for whom in general they would suffer crucifixion. "I should not have said so much about bundling, had not a learned divine,of the English church published his trav els through prune parts of America, whereih this remarkable custom is rep seated in an unfavorable light, ancras prevailing among the low 9r clans of peo ple. The truth Is, the custom prevails among all classes, to the great honor of the country, its religion, and ladies. The virtuous may be tempted ; but the tempter is despised. Why it should be thought harredible (Cr a young man and youtig woman innocently and vir tuously to lie down together in a bed with a great part of their clothes on. 1 cannot conceive. Unman passions may be alike in every region ; but religion, diversified as It is , opperates differently in different countries.. Upon the whole, had I daughters now, I would venture to let them bundle on the bed, or even u n the sofa, after a proper educsition, soon er than adopt the Spanish mode of forc ing young people to prattle only before the lady's mother the chitchat of artless lovers. - A lady, writing 'to John Neal when he was editing the Yankee at Portland, Me., in 181.13, sent him some extracts from a letter received by her about three years before from anth er lady, who had gone to visit a rel ative in Franklin county, Me. These extract speak of bundling as still be ing in fashion among the people of Franklin county, and of its being ac tally proposed to the writer by an admirer of hers. Her refusal was re ceived with great offence by the young man, who attributed it entire ly to pride. She then adds: "I. have since made imettries about bundling, and find it is really the cus tom here, and that they think no more harm of it than we ~ ,M3 our way of a young couple setting up together. 1 have known an instance, since 1 have been here, of ivgirl's taking her sweet heart to a neighbor's house and asking for a beil z for two to lodge in, or rather to bundle in. 'rhey had company at her father's, so that their beds were occupied: she lhought no harm of it. She and her family are respectable. -iiirandinother says bundling was a very common thing in our part .of the country - in old times; that most of the first settlers lived in log houses, which seldom had more than one room with a ' fireplace ; in this room the old:people slept, so if one of their girls had asweet heart in the Winter .she must• either sit with him in the room where her father and mother slept, or take him into her sleeping room. She would choose the latter for the sake of being alone with him; but sometimes when the cold was very severe, rather than freeze to death, they would crawl under the bedclothes ; and thus, after a while, became a habit, a custom, or a fashion." Of course the practice was exceed ingly liable to abuse, and the clergy exerted themselves strenuously to destroy- it. They struggled in vain, however, till the rhymesters of the day took their side, and began ,writ ing satirical ballads and epigrams aga inst' it, a number of which Dr. Stiles produces. Oneof these ballads published in 1735, Was peculiarly effi cient in this way, and from its ap pearance ma) be dated the downfall of bundling. Dr. Stiles sums up his view of the matter thus: I. That the custom, so far as it pertained to the American States, had its origin as a matter of conveni ence and necessity. 11. That in all stages of its history it was chiefly confined to the humb ler classes of society. 111. That its prevalence may be said to have closed - with the eigh teenth century. It is his opinion that it can* near est to being a universal custom from 1750 to 1750, and that It was at all times regarded by the better classes as a serious evil, and was no,siore THE HEAVEII AUGIUS Is published eyery Wednesday In the old Argui building on Third Street, Bea ver, Pa., at 152 per year in advance.

In the evening, under cover of rank veg etation and the shoulder of a hill, the Americans advanced within one hun dred and twenty yards of the forts before they came in range of the Co rean musketry.

The American force levuuack; d in the forts the wet day, demolished the citadel, spiked all the guns and then the fleet re turned to the lenseanchorage. Two days later the Coreans sent on board a letter tilled with most insulting and abusive language, to which no reply as sent. A din Ind Rogers, however, sent to knhw what he sheuld do with the prisoners. The Coreans answer ed that he could do what he liked. Two days later he set them at liber ty. lie sent two messages ashore, but the local authorities refused them, saying it was as much 'as his head was worth to send them and no use to attempt to communicate further with the Court. Mr. Low, American Minister, then sent a formal protest that his rnisssion was a peaceful one, arid that the attack on the forts was not for the refusal to negotiate, but because the Coreans, too, treacher ously tired on the boats. The steamer Aliliet then dispatched the Shanghai dispatches.

The grave apprehensions regarding the westward advance of the cholera will receive a new incitement in the - announcement that the disease has made its appearance at Konigsberg, ' one of the most important Prussian ports on the Baltic. A curious theo ry in regard to the cause of the main dy is lust now receiving much at tention. It is that of Raspail, who holds that anitnaleuhe are its prima ry origin. It is an old theory, it is true, but- none the worse for that; and ,what gives it importance Just noW is the fact that there is a remedy for it. In IS-l9 and '5O, during the ravages of the cholera in the %Vest Indies, it was found, on examining microscopically the water of the lo calities where - the disease existed, that it was impregnated' with ani malculie foreign to the -place, which disappeared simultaneously with the disease. These animalcula3 would . die whea placed in contact with vinegar, tvhich seemed,to be to them a deadly poison. This is the evidence= in support of Raspail, and a thorough microscopical investigation of the water in loailit ies affected. and of the evacuations of a sufferer from this pestilence of the Ganges, it is evident will establish the fact that the dis- I ease is propagated by animalculte. In view of this, a correspondent of the Herald suggests, and in good time, that— " All water for drinking purposes should be boiled and kept tightly covered, for R is in the water where the greater number of animalculte, are found. We should also carefully abstain froni all liquids which have not been thoroughly purified by fire. Judicious use, internally, of a few drops of camphor daily, destroys the . anitnalculte as 'fast as they enter the system, thereby arresting the dis ease."
