Curtails Chapter on Teed-
The. diversity preVailing in different n
tons „in reference to articles of food seenis;
to confirm in its liberal sense tbeTroverlKl
ial, saying,lhat "one inan's meat an,9th ,
er man's poison." Many atearticie ef food' ,
which is in high esteem inione Country is
regarded in others with abhorrence,which
even famine can hardly surmount.
In the Shetland Ishii:Alit• is • said that
crabs and lobsters abound, Which the pee
pie catch, for the lAindon niarket; but ref;
thse,to eat even.when,half ttarved. The
John Dory is reckoned by epicures one of
the choicest of fish ; imt,' in Devonshire,
where it abounds, and also in Ireland,,it
used to be thrown way . us unfit for &tat.
There seems to be some superstition cow
fleeted with this, as it is said that ;a Dey,
onshire cook flatly refused to dress it.—
Eels—which are abundant, and of good,
quality in Cumberland and Westmoreland
and lose in Scotland—are regarded by the
people there wiih as much disgust, as
snakes. Skate, which, is in high
,estima
tion in „England, in Ireland' is hardly Byer
eaten except by the fishermen. Scollops,
on the other band, which are reckoned a
dainty in Ireland, are hardly ever eaten in
England ; and, though they are, abundant
on many o£ the coasts, few, of the English
have an idea that they are eatable. The
The cuttlefish (the kind that produces the
inky fluid,).although found on our coasts,
is not eaten by us ;• but at Naples it is
highly esteemed, and travellers report that
it tastes like veal.
, . .
Cockchafers are candied, and served , up
with other confectionary by theltalians..
The,hedgehog'pa one thinks of eating
in England except the gipsies and some
who have joined them, and who report it
as better than rabbit.
The sailors in the English and Dutch
whale'ships do not eat the flesh of whales;
but those in French Whalers (with their
well known skill in cookery) are said to
make a palatable dish of it.
By almost all the lower classes of Eng
land; venison and ganie of ,all, kitids are
held in abhorrence, and so arefresb flga.
By the Australian savage, froga, snakes!,
large moths, and grubs-picked ont from
the wood, all of which the'Enlish settlere
turn away; from iii disgust, , are esteemed
as dainties ; ,hut they are shocked at bur
eating eiders:
,
Itilk.as an article of food (except for
sacking babes) is loathed by t h e South
Sea Islanders. Goats have been hitrodu
cod into several of the islands, but.i,he , na
tives deride' the settlers with using the '
milk, and ask them Why they do notmilk
their cows. On the other hand, dogs and
rats are favorite articles of food with them.
These laSt, as is well known, are often
eaten by the Chinese, who also eat salted
earth-worms, and a kind of sea-slug, that
most Europeans will' turn away' from in
disgust.
In'the narrative of Anson's voyage is a
full account' of the prejudice of the South
Americans (both of Creofes and Indians)
against.turtle, as poisontus. The, prison:.
era captured oh prize' ships waited the
sailers
,against eating% and fOr sometime
lived On bad ship beef; bat seeing our
men thrive on the turtle, they, began to
eat it—at first sparingly, and at length
heartily. ' '
HOttiefiesh, which most Earopeanswo'd ,
refuse to eat, except in great extremity,
is preferred by the Tartars to all others ;
and the flesh of the wild ass' colt was es
teemed highly by the Romans. As for
pork, it is on religious grounds that Jews
and Mobanimedans'abstain from:it; sia' the
Rindoes do from beef. 'Bat the Christians
ofthe'East seem' to have nearly an etpial
aversion to it ; and the like prevailed till
lately in Scotland.

A ShOrt Sermon
,MT Data Fitly t—r',Thedelit that sets
heaviest u n
up Alie .conscience of a mortal,
has Ane, is the debt due the '
printer. Itpresseshardernn one's bosom
than An eightmares!galls the soul, frets
and chafes, every ennobling , sentiment,
squeezes all the fraternal 'sympathy from
the heartvand leaves than the our
face of a roasted potato, .
mak who wrongs the printer out of
a single red cent,Pan never expect to, en
joy,the comforts of 'this sv*rld, and may
well have 'his doubts of Snags happiness
iR any „other.
Oh you ungrateful , einners I. If you
have hearts moistened by the flow of mer
cy,instead- of gizzardslilled with gravel,
take heed what I say unto you, if there
be any among you in, this congregation
who halt not settled hie account ;with the
printer, go and, adjust it, immediately, and
beable to hold up year head in society
like, a giraffe; be respected by the twise
and good, free from tortures of- guilty
conscience, the mortifications of repeated
duns, and escape from the possibility of
falling into the clutches of a lawyer,which
is. -one and the same thing, if you are: hon
est and honorable men, you will go forth
and pay the same. ,
You willinet wait till to-morrow 1 it is but
the receptacle of unredeemed promises ;
it is an addled egg in the greatness of the
future ; the doctor's - and the creditor's
curse. If you are dishonest, low-minded
sons of Satan, I do not suppose you will
pay the printer, as you have no reputa
tion to lose, no character , to sustain, no
morala,to cultivate. But let me tell you,
my friends, that if you do not do it, your
path will be strewn with thorns you will
have to gather your food from brambles ;
your children will die of dysentery, and
you never . will enjoy. the blessings of a
healthy conscience.
I once called on a pick. man Whom the
doctor had given up as a gone case.
I asked him if he bad made his
,peaee
with his Maker. lie said 'be thought i he
had sqOared up. I then inquired if he had
forgiv,en his enemies. Be
,replied yes. I
then salce4 him if i ho kaiid paid the printer.
He then hesitated.rt Moment, and said be,
thought he owed him about two dollars

Gies. McCi.nwor,-,-The Buffalo Courier
says there have been 'two critical periods
in our three years' history of the war. The
first occurred on the day of the first bade
of Bull Run. Unquestionably, had our
ems been succeseful'on that field, the re
bellion would have collapsed ; the project
of its leaders would have lkeen still-born.
Again, when McClellan wds called to what
was really the leadership of the nation,his
plan for the suppression of the now vastly

enlarged and invigorate rebellion, was

The Abolition Doctrine.
Thaddeus Stevens in a recent speech in
,Congress on the amendment to %he cOnfis
cation bill, avowed the true abolition doc-
trine, wluCh' P,resident Lincoln, however
he may for a time beet about the bush,
and the whole party must ultimately
adopt and act upon. iHQ has in effect de
clared the right of State .seceision under
the Conititution. Of course the right
must be exercised at the risk of war with
the other States; if they choose to coerce
the recalcitrant State into submission. In
other words, he makes secession and rev
olution synonymous, and in this view of
the pestion• takes the following grounds :
"If a State, as a State,.makes war and
becomes a belligerent power, we can,
when we conquer it, treat it is we would
any other foreign nation. And this is not a
question under but outside of, the Consti
tution. By the lewd of war ilte conquer
or may seize and convert to his own use
everything belonging to the enemy, and
sell it to pay the expenses of war and the
damages t occasioned by it. As the Con
federate . States have voluntarily thrown
themselves opt of the proviiions of the
Constitution, and placed themselves un
der the law of nations, it is our duty to
knock off every shackle from every limb.
The cry for the Union as it }vas, and the
Constitution as it is' is now but an at
tempt to perpetuate slavery. May the
God of justice paralyze all such efforts."
This is the hold doctrine of the compar
atively new
.political sect—founded by the
Englishman Thomson and, William Lloyd
Garrison, and composed of the fag ends of
211 parties and fikctions that have arisen,
disappeared or yet exist, since the adop
tion of the Federal Constitution—that
now under the Presidency- of Abraham
Lincoln, conduct the government and con
trol the destinies Of the .United States. •
The doctrine, held by the fathers, and
still maintained by all sound constitution
al statesmen and lawyers, is that the Un
ion cannot be broken except ,by the com
mon consent, of ..the parties to, the con
tract—that is the States thetuselvea. It
WWI wise ly . held keit. the.fraraamof- the
u
Uonstituon, and is so held by the Demo
cratic party, that, the people of a State
cannot, at will, revolutionize it' out of the
Union—that the ; Vnion was made to be
perpetual, and can in no wise be dissolved
unless by. , tbe general concurrence of all
ite constituent parts; andthis isthe only
doctrine by which it , can be I pieserifid.—
According to this theory the Union has
never been dissolved, and still exists, not
withstanding the belligerent attitude of
the people of home of the States; ,and, all
that is neeesshry to give it all the vitality
it ever possessed is to quell'the military
power now in 'arms for its destruction. It
requires no amendment of the Constitu
tion, no avoidance of its terms,. no power
but. what it plainly confers upon the con.
stituted authorities of. the Federal gov
ernment to accomplish this. The instru
ment itself is perfect, and the authority
conferred by it is ample. By the etercise
of that power alone, without °usurpation,
without the least infringement of the fun
damental law; without the suspension of
habeas corpus, the passage of confiscation
laws, or the issuing of emancipation proc
lamations, if the Lincoln administration 1
and party had simply desired to crush the
rebellion and re-establish the Constitution
and the Federal power in the, seceded
States, they could have done it long since.
But plainly that is not now, and never
was their intention. Mr.! Stevens is in
genuous—more
so than any leading man
of his party—and he tells us what the re
al design is.' It, is to treat the rebellions
States as foreign—to-subjugate, and held
and govern, them as provinces—to rob
them at will, and to treat them with a
cruelty trom which the most heartless
monarch in Christendom would turn with
horror, and none but an Asiatic despot
would approve or imitate. And this'll; to
be done for the avowed • purpose of de
stroying the Union. as the Constitution
made it; for, says Mr. Stevens "The eiy
for the Union as it was, and the Conititw.
tion as it is,' is but an attempt tel
slavery; . MAY THE GOD OF JUSTICE
, PARALYZE ALL SUCH EFFORTS."
The then, of the abolitionists; is•
no longer bidden—it is proclaimeditobe
the destruction of the Union-and this is
their prayer : , " May the ,God of justice
paralyze all efforts" - to restore the ..Union
as it was under the Conititutionas it is.
Thus abolitionism boldly avows -the
treason which: it Contemplates.—Patriot
