the verge of the greee• The Scientific Evidence upon
which it is bascd, is in the highest degree curious and
remarkable.
SCIENTIFiC EVIDENCE:
Baron Liebig, lh , his celebrated work on, Animal
Chemistry, says: "An Artincial•Digestive Fluid ana
:room to the .gastric Juice, may be readily prepared
?" la the mucous membrane of the atoinach of the Calf
El which' various article. of food as meat and eggs,
will be sollenid, changed, and digested, Jolt in the
same manner as they would be in the human stomach.'
Dr. Pereira, In his famous treatise nn "Food and
Diet," published by", Fowlers & Wells, New York,
page 35, states the same great fact, nod describes the
method of preparation. There arc few higher authori
ties than Dr. Pereira,
Dr. Conibe,!p his Valuable writings onthe "Physiol•
ogy of Digestion," observes that "a iliinunti inn of the
doe quantity of the • Oallrie Juice Is a prominent and
all-prevytiling rause of Dyspepsia ;" and tie states
that ••adtstinguished professor of medicine itanndon,
who wit severely afflicted with this complaint, find
ing evetythinglise.tn Tail, had recourse to the Gastric
Juice.obtained front the stomach of living animals,
which proved completely successful."
Dr. Graham,.authrir of the famous worts on "Vege
table Diet," says : "it is a remarkable tact In physi
ology, that the stititachs of animala, macerated In
wafer, impart , to the fluid the property of iltriolvine
varioucanicies of food, and of etTeming a kind of are
Nadal digestion of:them in no wise differe.ntfrom the
natural digestive prOcess."
Dr. Simon's great work, the "Chemistry of Man,"
(Les & Blanchard,'Phila. IS4S„ pp. 3tll-2) says "The
discovery of PEPSDSI forms a new era in the chemi
cal distils,- of Digestion. From recent experiments.
we know that food dissolved as rapidly In an arti
ficial digestive fluid: prepared from Pepsin, as it Is In
the natural Gastric Juice itself."
Professor Deng!lion of the Jefferson College, Phila
delphia. in his grearrorlt on human Physiology, de
vetes more than tift pages to an examination of this
subject. His expertinents with Dr. Beaumont,ott the
Gastric Julese.:obtaiiled from theliving human stomach
and from animals are welt known. in all cases,"
he says, "digestion occurred as perfectly in the arti
ficial as In the natural digestions.
Dr. John W. Drew, Professor of Chemistry in the
Medical College 'of, the University of New York, in
his "Text Book of Chemistry." page 3EiG, says "It
has been a question whether artificial digestion could
be performed-;-but'll is now universally admitted that.
it may be." ;
Dr. Carpenteesstandard work on Physiology.which
is In the library of:svery physician, and in used as a.
Text Book In all the Colleges, is full of evidence simi
lar to the above. respecting the remerksble Digestive
power of Pepsin, end the fact that it may he readily
separated from the. Storni:lth of the calf or ox. and
used for experiments in artificial digestion, or as a
remedy for disease. of the Stotnec it, and deficient se
cretion of Gastric ;Nice.
. .
All modern works on'Chemistry, alathia Medira,
and Physiology, aqd all good Medical Dictionaries,
describe the character and properties of Pepsin, and
state many interesting details respecting it.
The fact that an artificial digestive fluid, or Car:tric
Juice, perfectly resembling the natural fluid, may be
readily prepared, Aloes not admit of question. The
only ponder a. that it has not Weil applied to the
curt of lodigeitton'and Dyspepsia—so naturally does
such a use aug4est Itself to the mlbd.

ATTACK OF THE ENGLISU FLEET
On the evening of Saturday, APril,lB, the
foremost of the English frigates sighted what
they believed to be the nearest point of laud
in the Canary Islands ; but the weather was
so extremely thick and hazy that 'doubts
were entertained, and it was noon on Sun
day before - they were certain of their exact
bearings. This circumstance afforded Diego
timely warning of their approach.. Next
morning, Monday, the red cross of the Com
monwealth was descried at daybreak from
the royal galleons; the fleet appearing about
three leagues distant, under crowded sail and
bearing in before a stiff breeze. ' A Dutch
Captain, who had seen something of the late
war, happened to be lying at that =Anent
in the Santa Cruz roadstead with his vessel,
when he saw the Sea-General's pennon float
ing on the wind, and the frigates in advance
making direct to the harbor, he felt they
were bent wrinischief, and anxions to avoid
any portion Of the hard knocks likely to be
given in the coming fray, went straight to
the Spanish Admiral to ask his permission
to retire. Diagues affected , to smile at his
tears.. Why, his naval force alone was al
most equal to the enemy. The royal gal-.
leons were mounted with the finest brass or,
dnance in the world. Their broadsides
would oppose a living wall .of fire against
assault. With his castles, battenes and
earth-works, his powerful and spirited gar
rison, his double line of war-ships; he con
sidered, and not unreasonably considered,
that his position was impregnable. The.
Dutchman shook his head," For all this,"
lie said, " I am ',wry sure that Blake will
soon be in among you." " Well," replied
the haughty Spaniard, " go, it you will ;
and let Blake come if lie dare." The appli
cant returned to his vessel, hoisted sail and
escaped the destruction which awaited every
spar and canvas afloat within the ,Bay of
Santa Cruz that fatal morning.
IBM
As soon as day dawned on . the English
fleet, a frigate, which had been sent forward
in the night for that purpose, signalled to the
Swiftsure the welcome intelligence that. the
whole body of the Silver fleet lay at anchor
within the harbor. Thereupon Blake, rous
ed from his sick-bed by the prospect of itn=
mediate action, called a council of war, sta
ted the case in a few brief
.and pregnant
words, and ended with a proposal to ride in
to the port and attack the enemy jn his : form
idable. position. 'The shape of the harbor,
the situation of the "greareastle, and the di
rection of the wind—then blowing steadily
landwards—made it useless to thibk of bring
ing off the royal galleons. It only remain
ed therefore to destroy .them where they
stood, with their threatning broadsides point
ing towards the English ships. Many
thought this scheme would be equally im
possible to carry out ; bur the captains who
had served in the attack on Porto Fenno had
no doubt but that the bold conception of
their general might be as brilliantly execu
ted. At least it was resolved to make the
attempt. Between six and seven' o'clock, a
solemn prayer was offered to the: Disposer of
events ; no oath, no irreverent ribaldry was
ever heard on board that fleet; no rum or
brandy was given out on the eve of battle,
but every man on these gallant ships knelt
down humbly, and in that fervent spirit
which was in all trials and temptations the
Roundheads' sustaining fire, asked the god
of battles to bless His people, and put forth
Ilis right arm in support of the good cause.
At seven all was ready—the sailors had
breakfasted and prayed. A division --of the
best equipped and most powerful ships' was
then drawn oil' and sent forward. under the
gallant Captain Stayner to attack thes royal
galleons and force an. entrance tothe harlior;
Blake reservin ,, -to himself the task of si
lencing the castles' and batteries on land.—
Stayner's old frigate, the Speaker, now bear
mg his pennon as Vice-Admiral, rode in the
van of this attacking squadron right at the
entrance, unchecked by the tremendous
broadsides of the galleons and regardless of
the terrific fire-from the castle and batteries.
In a space of time almost incredibly short
he hail passed the outer defences. and estab
lished himself near the royal galleons, in the
centre of a huge semicircle of shot. Blake
instantly followd with the remainder of his
fleet,. and covering Stayner's flank with his
frigates, so as to leave hint free to fight
the great ships without interruption from
the batteries on shore, lie commenced a fu
rious cannonade on the whole line of ,defen
ces, and especially against the castle. The
Spaniard fought throughout With desperate
valor, and for some hours the old peak of
Teneriffe witnessed a scene - which might al
most he compared with one of its own stu
pendous outbursts. The Spanish mus
keteers kept up a most destructive fire from
behind the covered way. - -Yet to spite of the
highest courage, unanimity,.andeonduct on
the side of the defence, the cannonade along
the earthworks gradually slackened. One
by one the batteries ceased to answer. Be

ART OF SWIMMING
Men are drowned by raising their arms
above water, the unbuoved weight of which
depresses the head. Other, Annals have
neither notion or ability to act in a similar
manner, and thereforp swim naturally.—
When a man falls into deep water, he will
rise to the surface, and will continue there
if he-Aries not 'elevate his hands. It he
moves his hands under the water, in any
way he pleases, his head will rise so high
as to allow him free liberty,to breathe ; and
if he will use his legs as in the act of walk
ing, (or rather of walking up stairs,) his
shoulders will rise above the water, so that
he may use the less exertion with his hands,
or apply them to other purposes. These
plain directions are recommended to the re
collection of those who have not learned to
swim in their youth, as they may be found
highly advantageous in preserving life.
IMPORTANT CAUTION TO BOYS
The-New York Home Journal, in cqn
dernning the tobacco using propensity, so
strong of late, among boys, mentions the fol
lowing fact:
"A few weekrago, a youth of sixteen ar
rived in dui city to prosecute his studies
with a view to professional life. He came
from a distant State, and was to remain
here for some years. A week or two after
his arrival, he was seized with, a paralysis
in both legs, which advanced upwards tilt
nearly the lower half of his body wap be
numbed and apparently lifeless., The most
distinguished physicians in New York atten
ded the case, but no relief being afforded, the
unfortunate young man has been taken on
his way home, and there is but little hope of
his recovery. The -cause of his disease is
stated by the physicians to be tobacco chewing
—a habit which he early acquired, and per
skied in to the time of his attack."
07. GOOD ADVICE.-It is better to tread
the path of life cheerfully, skipping over the
thorns and briers that obstruct your way,
than to set down under every hedge lamen
ting our hard fatp. The thread of a cheer
ful man's life spins out longer than that of a
man who is constantly sad and „desponding.
Prudent conduct in the concerns of life is
highly necessary—but if distress succeed, de
jection and despair will not afford relief.
The best ; thing to be done when evil comes
upon us, is not lamentation, but action ; not
to sit and suffer, but seek the temedy.
The Albany Register, in the course of an
article on this subject, relates' the following
instance, which came under the editor's oh.
servation :
Some years ago we were perfectly cogni
zant to an occurrence of this kind which was
of the most heart-rending character. The
wife of a gentleman was taken 'suddenly ill
in church, and was carried to her home in a
state of syncope. In a few' hours she par
tially recovered, but immediately relapsed,
and never again showed any signs of con
sciousness. She lay in this condition nearly
two days, baffling the skill of the physicians.
and then, it was thought, and as there was
a 4
dinar' every. reason to believe, dead. No •
signs of breathing could be detected, :he
limbs became rigid and cold, and the . eyes re
mained open with the fixed and glassy stare
of death: dui there was no change in the color
of the skin. Dissolution bad not taken place.
The poor, bereaved husband, almost frantic
at the loss of the young and beautiful wife
whom he almost idolized, clung with despe
ration to the hope limned on her face, •and
long resisted the unanimous decision of the
physicians, that she was dead. They told.
him,whatis doubtless true,that it sometime*: .-•
though very rarely happens, that there is no
discoloration for days and even weeks after
dissolution has taken place. But ,still ha , re._
sisted. and it was not until three days had
passed without the faintest sign of change or
sign of life that he finally gave up and suffer
ed the burial to take place. She was en—
tombed in a vault. Months passed. A cem
etry having been laid out, the husband pur
chased and beautified a lot, erected a MODU•
went in it, and when all was ready; super
intended the removal of the body of his wife
From the vault to its final resting, place.—
W hen the vault was opened, he remembered
the circumstances of her death, abov de
tailed, and a desire suddenly seized hi to
i l
once more behold the corpse. By his irec
tion the coffin lid was removed. The spec
tacle which presented itself was inconceiva
bly horrible, for it showed that she had been
buried-alive. She had turned quite over on 1
her side, she had clutched her nails into the 1
coffin until her fingers had bled, portions of
1 her grave clothes were torn, and in horrible
, struggles she had contrived •to carry her
hand to her head, and plucked from it a
mass of hair, with portions of the cap that
covered it.
The poor man never recovered from the
shock of that awful spectacle. He was
borne away senseles, and for the rest of his•
weary tile was an utterly broken and miser
able being. ,

A neat, clean, fresh-aired, sweet, cheerful,
well arranged and well-situated house ex
ercises a moral as well ns a physical influ
ence over its inmates, and makes the mem
bers of a family peaceable and considerate of
the feelings of each other ; the connection is
obvious between the State of mind thus pro
duced and habits of,respect for others, and for
those higher dutieoand obligations which no
law can enforce. On the contrary, a filthy,
squalid, noxious dwelling, rendered still more
wretched by its noisome site, and in which
none Of the decencies of life can be obServed,
contributes to make . its unfortunate inhabi
tants selfish, sensual, and regardless of the
feelings of each other ; the constant indul
gence of such passions renders them reckless
and brutal, and the transition is natural to
propensities and habits incompatible with re
spect for the property of others or for the
laws.

longed into old age,. permit me to say altho'
I am not giving a temperance , lecture, avoid
albdrinks but water, and mild infusions of
that fluid, shun tobacco and opium, and eve
rything else that disturbs the normal state of

mild dilutent drinks, of which water is the
basis, and you will need nothing beyond these
things except rest, and due moral regulation
of all your powers, to give - you long, happy

11:7 FEASTING AND VOTING. —A good anec
dote is related of the late James. De Wolf, of
Rhode Island, a wealthy, merchant and poli
tician. When desirous , of carrying a mea
sure in the Assembly ofl that State, Mr. De
Wolf was accustomed to feast its members,
and the process was not unfrequently sue.•
cessful. But Mr. De Wolf fancied that such
as partook of his feasts became therefore
obligated to vote as he wished—and when,
on a certain occasion, one who had dined•
at his sumptuous mansion, ventured! to
vote otherwise, "the hospitable.. De Woll"
exclaimed "D -n him ! he roted'against me
with lny pig in his belly !"
romin NAN who spends all his
earnings to appear genteel amongst the la
dies, as the fashion is 'bout town, ought to
consider that the money which bought that
cigar will be needed to buy a pig when he
and the young lady get married ; that thß
bugg,y-hire would be needed to pay a load of
lumber to build a house; that that extra fine
clothing might buy a forty-acre lot of land
for a home, and that that money you paid
for a ball-ticket for you and Miss—, would
come so handy to dress little Alice and Andy.
Well it would.
a:7IMPORTANCE or Enrilasts.—A stranger
from the country observing an ordinary rol
ler-rule on the table, took it up, and, on in
quiring its use, was answered, " It is a rule
for couming-houses." Too well-bred, as he
construed politeness, to ask unnecessary
questions, he turned it over and over, and,
up and dawn repeatedly, and at last, in a
paroxysm of baffled curiosity,inquired, 'How,
in the name of Wonder, do you count houses
with this?'
