If the question could be separated from party or pul i ties, its settlement would be found a matter of ready accomplishment. Tho peo ple of the North could then negotiate di rt% tly with the people of the South, and the feelings of each section be clearly expressed; but the intervontirm of ambitious , men, and, above all, the inclination of ono party to make capital out of the excitement, without regard to the complication arising from such in termeddling, renders concession on either band almost an itnpossibility.— The Union feeling throughout the North and the greater and more important portion of the Smut is very strong, and is being ex pressed in monster Union meetings. • A large and very cuthusiestic meeting, called by Mayor Henry, was held at Independence Hall, Philadelphia, on last Thursday, and will probably have a good effect upon boa' potties, as the resolutions were moderate in tone and the speeches not, as is generally the ease, violently denune!atory of the North.

The Doctor has long made this class of disease his study, and speaks from experience.

An effort, was made to amend the bill by pledging the revenue nri sing front the sale of the public lands for the redemption of notes, but rejected—ayes 75, nays 124. The bill was then passed in the form reported. Terse-iv. lirn..—The Senate debated Mr. Powell's resolution for the reference of Fed eral affairs to a Special Committee of thir teen, without comity , to a vote. Mr. Bigler made an earnest Union address, and Mr. Iverson renewed his protestations against all efforts at compromise or conciliation.— AcezTling to him, the C ulf States have de_ „termini:id on secession and will be satisfied with nothing else. Mr. Pugh protested against such extreme views. Mr. Collatner, of Vermont, Republican, spoke briefly in favor 'of moderation and conciliation. A , conversional debate followed on the subject 1 of the Pugtive Slave law and its execution, in the Northern StateA, in which Senators I Pugh, Douglas, Mason, Powell, and others' participated. The pease finally refused to excuse Mr. Hawkins from serving on the Special Com mittee on the State of the Union. Mr. Boyce of South Carolina, also asked to be excused, but the House refused by a tie cote to grant the request. The House resolved to refer 1 all matters relating to Federal affairs to the Special Committee and then adjourned.

Clo.lf- FORT.÷:.A thin shawl may be.ruade warm by foldinga newspaper ineider. of it The pa per is impervious to Alto wind and cold air frog. outside, arid :ptevents the rapixtescape of the warm air beneath it. Every one knows that the heat of:the- body is carried off much more rapidly.in a high -wind than in - a calm.- The wind blows away the heat evolved from tho'body, but.in perfectly still air this heat . remains, and constitutes an•at• ntospheric envelope so nearly of the same temperature with the body itself that the latter is not so quickly robbed of its natu ral heat. A piece-of silk oil cloth; stitched on the folds of a shawl, is more flexible than the paper, and will last a whole winter. - It hai the advantage of securing inward warmth without the additional weight of a thicker garment..,• . • When you set out on a winter journey, i you are liable to suffer from cold toes, which many people du in spite 61 'crubbors,"• fold a piece of nowapaper - over your 'stockings, which you can readily do, if your boots or shoes are not irrationally tight, This is better than "rubbers," which are. in fact, very cold comforters in extreme, while they: Make the feat sweat in moderate weather.-- The main use of India rubber overshoes is to keep out water, and for that they are sec ond only to a : stout, water-proof, first-rate calf-skin boot. There is not a more villain ously unwholesome article of wear made than the high-topped rubber boot. It makes the foot tender ; especially in children, gives an ugly gait and when left off in any wreath er, the wearer is liable to "catch oold." Saint Crispin is the best friend of the hu man foot, when his leather and stitches are honest. The constitutional.vivacity.and temper of a person has much to do with his endurancre of cold. -For this vivacity is a sort of ner vous fire: that lessens the sensibility to out ward impressions. An indifferent; milk and-water. person, withotit energy and force, is ht the mercy of every cold blast that sweeps round the corner. - He, and especi ally she, has no defence but to wear a dozen shawls during the day, and sleep' under a bale of blankets at night. One without any mental 'purpose (unfortunittely there are such), -though .in vigorous health, is much more liable to catch cold 'than spirited delicatolody bent on some pOsitive pursuit. —The century. • THE 1%111.7 NVIIO DESl 4 l9gp WEIISKV ERS.--It was on one of the river stompers,:at dinner, that an amiable matronly Jady re-I marked, in the midst of conversation with grave looking gentlemen on the. subject of temperance: "Oli, of all things. in the world,-. I despise a whisky drizikerl", The gentle man dropped his knife and fork, in the ardor of his feelings extended-his hand and took hers within his own, and with emotion that threatened tears over the loss of ruined sons, he replied, with faltering words: "Madam, I respect your , sentiments, and the heart that dictated thorn. I -permit po one to go beyond me in despising whisky drink.' ing. I have .been; disgusted cm this very boat, and I nay it: now before our worthy captain's face.
