, THE 'OLD scaxinms
•Ireatmex. timmeamble and resolutions,
reported by' a.*mmittee of which Gen.
Leslie Combs *as chairman, and Which
ticrre unanimously adopted by the Conven
tion of Old Soldiers which as ambled at
I .Ya3hington in=the early part of the present
month:
Soldiers Vac, Wiir of 1812-'l5, in Conven
tion at Washingion, January 8,185 G.
Another year has rolled over our heads
since our last assemblage in this city, and
many of those who then participated with
us in our deliberations have since been
numbered with the dead. We mourn their
loss and venerate their memory. low
many of us may live to see the next anni
versary of this glorious clay God only knows.
We hope to be ready fur our destiny when
ever it may come upon us. While we live
it is our duty to serve our country sshenerer
coiled on, and dq,every thing in our power
to perpetuate our free institutions fur our
posterity as pure and untarnishel as they
r, era handed down to us by the Father of
hip. Country and his illustrious co-laborers
is the cause of human liberty. It is our
special duty to cherish in our hearts and fol
low the paternal precepts of Washington
contained in his Farewell Address. In this
immortal document he inculcates the indis
pensable necessity of our "union" under
ono General Government if we hope to pre
serve our liberty.
"To the efficacy and permanency of your
Union a Government for the whole is indis
pensable." * * "Respect fur its author
ity, compliance with its laws, acquiescence
iu its measures, arc duties enjoined by the
fundamental maxims of true liberty. The
basis of our political system is the right of
tho people to make and to alter their consti
tutions of government. But the constitu
tion which at the time exists, till changed
by an explicit and authentic net of the whole
people, is sacredly obligatory upon all. The
cry idea of the power and right of the peo
ple to establish government presuppose, the
duty of every individual to obey the estab
lished government." "All obstructions to
the execution of the laws; all combinations
and associations, under whatever plausible
character, with the real design to directly
control, counteract, or awe the regular de
liberation and action of the constituted au
thorities, are destructive of this fundamen
tal principle and or fatal tendency." There
f .rc be it
let. Resolrcd, That having solemnly
worn, when we first entered into the Fey
\ iCO of our country, to support and to sue
^::l the Constitution of the United State:,
in the hope and expectation to enjoy the
many blessings and advantages it was de
siz.,:led to secure, we will honestly perform
rho obligations it enjoins and not shrink
from the duties it imposes upon us.
'2d. Peso Zrecl, That we have witnessed
w:th pleasure the efforts now making in Con
gre,s fur the final settlement and payment
of our Revolutionary debt. 'Co consider
that our Government is under the most sol
cr:a obligations to carry out the promises
the Continental Congress;as contained in
e:o resolutions of OctoW2l, 1780; .January
7, 1781; and March 8, 1785, by allowing to
the officers of the Revolutionary army the
half-pay for life to which they were entitled
under those resolutions, for the payment of
which the faith of the nation Wai pledged,
and all those Senators and members who ,
have taken an active interest in behalf of
the officers of the Revolution, their widows
and children, are entitled to the thanks and
gratitude of the country.
3d. Res.o/vcd, That our grateful nekuowl
cdgements are due to the last Congress for
its enactment in our behalf, although not
carried to the extent of our hopes and expec- !
tations; and wo earnestly petiti )11 the pres
ent
ono to supply the omission of the former,
by providing for the declining years of the
t..ddiors and sailors of our second war of In
c.ependence as was done fir tho•ie of the
Revolutionary war.
dth. Resolved, That all pensions for
wounds or injuries received while iu the line
of duty in the military and naval Service of
the 'United States, instead of commencing at
the completion of the proof, as is now prac
tised at the Pension Office, ought, upon every
principlo of justice, to commence at and
from the date of the disability; and, in case
of the death of the invalid, any arrears of
pension duo him should be paid to his wid
ow; and, in ca.e of her death, to the survi-
sing children
sth. iievth-csi, That the subsequent mar
riage of a widow who was entitlod to a pen
sion or bounty land in rirtuo of any law of
the United States, should not prevent her
from receiving such pension or land, provi
ded she be otherwise entitled to the some;
nor should the law render it necessary that
she be a widow at the time of her applica
tion.
Gth. Resolved, That the bounty land act
of March 3, 1835, ought to be amended so
21S to embrace the children of any person
who if living would be entitled to bounty
land under said act, as well a, his "minor
children," and that those soldiers of the war
of 1812, who enlisted for five years or during
the war, and served until discharged iu con
teiuenee of disability or by reason of the ex
piration of their term, might to receive
grant of IGO acre, of land in addition to,
what they have already received.
7th. Pc4rolvecl, That, if the construction
gis en by the official or,;au of the Goveiumeat,
whose duty it is to adjudicate upon the laws
passed for our relief and for the benefit of
the widows and children of our deceased
brother soldiers, be deemed correct, Congress
ought to afford relief.
Bth. .I?...ft•olvvi, That all the provisions
heretofore mode for us, or which may here
after be made, ought to be extended to our
fellow-eitizens who were confined,in foreign
prisons during any portion 'of the war a
1811-11.
9th. Resolved, That, inasmuch ea many
of the rolls of the War 01Ice at Washington
have been destroyed, it in unjust to refuse
parol - preof, and require the production of
record evidence of service, to entitle merito
rious applicants to the benefit of the land
and pension larva.
10th. .Rcirolivd, That it is due to the mem
ory of Jistr.i' Maximo 's, President of' the
United States at the time of the declaration
of war against Great Britain, and who fear
lessly recommended that important measure,
to have an appropria' e statue erected to him
iu this city.
Ilth. I?esoircd, That we will wear crape
on the left arm for thirty days, in token of
respect for the memories of our companions
in arras who have died since our last Con
vention.
It was further resolved the t the requiSi
tion of fourteen days' service to entitle
soldier to bounty laud should be repealed.
The foregoing resolutions were referred
to committee of seven, who are instructed
to present thew to the attention of Congress.
COLD FEET
Cold feet are the as enues to death of mul
titudes every year; it is a sign of imperfect
circulation, of want of vigor of constitution.
No one can be well, whose feet are habitu
ally cold. When the blood is equally distrib
uted to every part of the body, there is I.7,en
oral good health. If there be less blood at
any one point than is natural, there is cold
ness; and not only so, there must be more
than is natural at some other part of the sys
tem, and there is fe‘ er; that is, unnatural
heat or oppression. In case of cold feet,
the amount of blood wanting there, collects
at some other part of the body which happens
to be the weakest, tonne the least able to throw
up a barricade against the in-rushing enemy.
Hence, when the lungs are weakest, the ex
tra blood gathers there in shape of a common
cold, or spitting bleed.. Clergymen, other
public speakers, and singers, by improper
exposures often render the throat the weak
est part; to such, cold feet gives hoarseness
or a raw burning feeling, most felt at the lit.
tie hollow at the buttons of the neck. To oth
ers, again, whose bowels are weak through
cver-eating, or drinking spirituous liquors,
cold feet give various degrees of derangement,
from common looseness up to a diarrhoea or
dysentery: and so might go through the whole
body, but for the present, this is sufficient
for illustration.
If you are well, let yourself alone. lint to
those whose feet arc inclined to be cold we
sug,gct
As som ai you got up in the morning put
lmtli feet at once in a basin of cold water, so
as to come half way between the ankles;
keep them in ludfa minute in winter, a min
ute or two in summer, rubbing them igo
rously, wipe dry, and hold to the fire if con
venient, in cold weather, until every part of
tho foot feels as dry as your baud, then put
on your socks or stockings.
On going to bed at night, draw (AT your
stockings and hold the feet to the fire fur ten
or fifteen minutes until perfectly dry, and
get into bed. This is a most plea-ant ope.
ration, and fully repays fur the trouble of it.
No one can sleep well or refreshingly with
cold feet. All Indians and hunters sleep
with their feet to the fire.
Never step from your bed with your naked
fec.t on an uncarpeted floor. I have known
it to be Vie exciting cause of months' of ill-
E EM
Wear woolen, cotton or silk stockings,
whichever keep your feet most comfortable;
do not let the experience of another be your
guide, fur different persons require different
articles; what is good fur a person whose feet
arc naturally damp, cannot be good fur one
wh - tso feet are always dry. The donkey who
had his bag of salt lightened by swimming a
Cr,rig advised 111 A CO1111)3111011 who was loaded

having no more sense than a man or woman,

sorbed the water, increased the burden many

Journal of
COSSACK COURTSHIP
In a clink/Its old French Book, writt en by
Rica• de Beau',lan, and published at Rouen
in 1662., the author thus describes the man
n in which the Cossacks of those days
made loye:
"11.(re, then, contrary to the cust( m of all
other countries, may he seen young girls
making love to young men, and a supersti
tion prevalent among them and carefully oh
served, causes them scarcely ever to miss
their object, and, indeed, renders them more
sure of success than the men would be,
should the latter attempt the wooing. They
pro iced somewhat after the following man
ner:
"The maiden goes to the house of tl.o
ther of the young man whom she loves, when
sho thinks the family are all together, and
says, on entering, Punielyabog, which means
God bless you. She pays her compliments
to him who has made so great an impres
sion upon her heart, and tells hi in sho thinks
he will know how to gm ern and love his
wife. "Thy noble qualities she continues,"
"have led me to pray thee very humbly to
accept me f r thy wife." She then asks the
father and mother to consent to the mar
riage. If she receive a refusal or some ex
cuse, as that lie is too young and not yet
ready to marry, she answers that she will
not depart until he has espoused her. 'Thus
she perseveres and per.ists in remaining un
til she has' obtained a favorably answer to
her demands.
"After several weeks the father and moth
er are not only constrained to give their eon
i-ent, but also to persuade their son to look
upon her more favorably. At the same
time, the younz man, seeing the maiden so
determined in her erection for him, begins
to regard her as the one destined to be the
mistress of his desires. Finally he prays
his father and mother to permit him to es
pouse her. Thus she accomplishes her pur
pose, and the entire family, through fear of
incurring the wrath of God by expelling her
from their home, are constrained to give
their consent to the union."

Hartford, Ct., has in his possession a copy
lot the New Testament., in a good state of
preservation, printed in London in the year
1596-250 years ago. It is printed in small
