We have been compelled to raise the club subscription
price to one dollar and fifty cents in order to cave our
selves from actual loss. Paper has risen, including .
about tffetity-flee per Cent., and is still rising.;
and when we tell our Democratic friends, candidly, that
we can no longer afford to sell the Weekly PATRIOT AND
ttztion at one dollar a year. and must add fifty cents or
stop the publication, we trust they will appreciate our
position, and, instead of withdrawing their subscrip
tions, go to work with a will to increase our list in every
county in the State. We have endeavored and shall
continue our efforts, to make the paper useful as a party
organ, and welcome as a news messenger to every fam
ily. We flatter ourselves that it has not been without
Some influence is producing the glorious revolution in
the politics of the State achieved at the late election ;
and if lawlessness, ID the 4isoisarge of duty, fin.lity to
the principles of the party, and an anxious &mire to pro
mote its interests, with -time experience and a moderate
degree of ability, can be made serviceable hereafter, the
Weekly PATRIOT AND UNION writ not be less useful to
the party or less welcome to the family circle in the fu
ture than it has been in the past. We confidently look
for inoroorod encouragement in this great enterprise,
and appeal to every influential Democrat in the State to
lend us his aid in running our supscription list np to
twenty or thirty thousand. The expense to each indi
vidual is trifling, the benefit to the party may be great.
Believing that the Democracy of the State feel the ne
cessity of sustaining a fearleas central organ, we make
ten appeal t 9 theca lot amistestee with the fullest seal
deuce of success.
The same reasons which induce us to raise the price
of the Weekly, operate in regard to the Daily paper, the
price of which is also increased. The additional cost to
each subscriber will be but trilling and a while we oari.
not persuade ourselves that the change necessarily made
will result in any diminution of our daily circulation,
yet, were we certain that such would be the cones.
queues, we should still be compelled to make it, or suf
fer a ruinous loss. Under these circumstances we must
throw ourselves upon the generosity, or, rather, the
justice of the public, and abide their verdict, whatever
it may be_
The period for which many of our subscribers have
paid for their paper being on the eve of expiring, we
take the liberty of issuing this notice, reminding them
of the same, in order that they may

We shall also take it as an especial favor if our present

There is scarcely a village or town in the State in
which a club cannot be raised if the proper exertion be

N. B.—The following taw, passed by Congress in BM,
defines the duty of Postmasters in relation to the de
livery of newspapers to club subscribers
(Nes _Little, Brown ¢ Fo. , s oditton of the Laws of 1860,
page 38., chapter 131, section, 1.)
“Provided, however, that where packages of new pa'
pars or periodicals are rtiCeived at any peat once difoetod
to one address, and the names of the club subscribers to
which hey belong, with the postage for a quarter in ad
vance. shall be handed to the postmaster, he shall de
liver the same t• their respective owners.”
To enable the Postmaster to comply with this regula
tion. it will be necessary that be be furnished with the
list' f names composing the club, and paid a quarter's
for year's) postage in advance. The uniforms courteay
of Postmasters affords the assurance that they will
cheerfully accommoaate club subscribers, and the latter
should take care that the postage, which is but a trifle
in eacb mum, be paid in advance. Send on the clubs

REALTH
We make further extracts this week from
Dr. Lewis's recent interesting work on con
sumption .1
HOW CENTENARIANS LIVE.
Galen, ens of the most distinguished of the
ancient physicians, liyed one hundred and
forty years, and composed between seven hun
dred and eight hundred essays on medical and
philosophical subjeott3; and he was always, af
ter the age of twenty-eight, extremely sparing
in the quantity of hie food. The Cardinal de
Sins, 'Archbishop of Seville, who lived one
hundred and ten years, was invariably sparing
in his diet. One Lawrence, an Englishman,
by temperance and labor, lived one hundred
and forty years; and one Kentigein, called St.
lilungah, who never tasted spirit or wine, and
slept on the ground, and labored hard, died at
the age of oue hundredand eighty five. Henry
Jenkins, of Yorkshire, ;rtho died at' she age of
one hundred and sixtlknine, was a poor fish
erman as long ; as he could follow his pursait,
and ultimately he became a beggar, living uui•
formly on the coarsest did most sparing diet.
Old Parte, already famous, who died at the
age of one hundred And fifey-three, was *far
mer of extremely abstemious habits, his diet
being solely milk, cheese, coarse bread, small
beer and whey. At the age of one•butidred
and twenty, he married a second wife, by
whom he had a child. Bat being taken to the
court by the Earl of Arundel, all a great curl•
()slip, in his one hundred and fifty-seerind
year. he very soon died, as the physician de
cidedly testified after dissection, in conse
quence of a change from a parsimonious
to a plentiful diet. Henry Francisco, another
famous case, lived to about one hundred and
forty in this country, and was, exitiOpt fret a
certain period, when he h:ecame attached to
ardent spirit, “remavkablylitbstemious, eating
but little, and abstaining almost entirely from
animal food," his favorite articles being tea,
bread sail buttei and naked urges. A Mr.
Ephraim Pratt. of Shutesbury, Messachusetta,
who died. at .he age of one hundred and seven
teen years, lived very much upon milk, and
that in statil quaatity ; and his son, Michael
Pratt, attained to the age-of one hundred and
three years, by similar means. Indeed great
longevity has, occurred in no instance with
which I am acquainted where the individual
was not. a pattein of abstemiousness in diet.—
Great eaters never live long. A voracious appe
tite is a sign otNdisease, or of a strong tendency
to diseitee ; and not a sign of health, as is gen
erally supposed. 11l health as infallibly follows
the indulgence of such an appetite, as any
other acct. its legitimate muse.
Q.UAPTITY OF FOOD
I have referred to the several rules which va
rious eminent authqrs have given to regulate
the quantity of our food. And have, I trust,
with becoming deference, giv n my objections
to them all. I shall now submit my own rule,
It is this ; Before you take the first mouthful,
place upon your plate all yoa are to eat, and
eat but twice a day ! This rule accomplishes
all that the practice of weighing our food does,
for soon the eye can determine, with all nee
ded accuracy, the queutity, and without the
display of a pair of vales. It is better than
the rule of. Dr. Johnson and others, which I
have given, viz : watching while you are eat
ing, for the first indications of having enough;
for, as I have shown, it is almost impossible
for a dyspeptic, with his morbid appetite, to
watch, or halt when he does discover that the
food fails to give the intense gratification of
the first moment. Thte ie the great difficulty
—to use calm.judgment and moral firmness in
the midst of the absorbing pleasures of a deli
cious meal. lam tree to confess, I have rarely
done it, and I think I may without harsh judg
nt say, I do not know half a dozen persons
who can.
WASTE n DIOIT FOOD.
Few spectacles are mare ' painful than the
struggle often seen among the poor to keep
their table eupplied with the "beet in the mar
ket." Foregoing books, perivdicae, a good
house, good clothes, the healthful luxury of a
summer trip, ete., they devote everything to
supplying their table. They are ashamed to
be seen eating plain, cheap food ; not ashamed
to live in a poor house, to wear insufficient
clothing. to have no lihrary, to have n pew in
church; to have nothing, and be nothing. if only
their table is well supplied I declare it is a
low, vulgar ambition—pride on the lowest
plain of life.
EATING WHEN . SICK.
It is the custom among a certain dna of
people, when it member of the family falls sick,
to begin at once to ask, "Now.' what can you
eat r Every one has heard the old story of
the man who always ate eighteen apple dump
lings when he was sick. On one occasion,
when engaged upon the eighteenth, his little
eon said, "Pa, give me a piece ?" "No, no
my son," replied the father; "go away, Pa's
sick." When a young man; who has surfeited,
in season and out of season, until exhausted
nature gives way, and a fever is coming on,
the good busy mother is in trouhle. She anx
iously inquires, "Now, John, what can you
eat ! Ir6ll raw' eat a/molting I People can't
live without food !" Tben come toast, tea, etc.
The stomaon is exhausted 'and no more needs
stimulus or food than a jaded horse needs the
whip! What is needed is rest—complete rest.
Nine-tenths of the suite diseases aught be
prevented by a few dap!' starvation, when the
firer indications appear I don't mean complete
abstinence in every case, but perhaps a piece
of coarse bread, with cold water for drink. If
such a policy were generally adopted, what
ruin would overtake the medical profession!
DIBT kOlt CO.II9IIMPTI'INO,
Whatever opinions may be entertained with
r.ferrnee to the use of a flesh diet for mankind
in t-neral, I think there can be no serious ar

NA l YLAND-FREAKI OF GENERAL
SCHENCK- MILITARY TAB-ARBI
TRARY ARRESTS.
If those who are clamorous for martial law
would read a few chapters in the history of In
diana. Ohio, Kentucky and Maryland while an
tler military control, we t.hink.it would have
a tendency to cool their ardor for steel and
gunpowder governments. Here is a chapter
of Maryland history, which will be found in
teresting, and well worth pondering until some
thing newer and more serious turns up:
From the Constitutional Vnion
Maryland is no longer an independent State,
goverhed by laws or its own enactment, and
administered by officers selected by its people.
It did, indeed, elect about a year and a half
ego a Governor in accordance with the provi
sions of the Constitution. His name we do not
remember. He bee, either from cowardice or
treachery, shrunk so som•pletely from all inter
ference . with the management of the aff-ars of
the government, and yielded so silently and
complacently to the usurpations of General
Schenck, that we doubt whether one half the
people of Maryland are better acquainted with
the name of the Governor than ourselves. In.
truth, it is not worth knowing.
Maryland, in fact, is an appanage of Mr. Lin
coln's royalty, and is governed by a Lord Lieu
tenant, clothed With unlimited power to steal
or imprison, as inclination may prompt. He
is skilled is all the arts of marauding...the in
sinuating, the polite, and the violent. We re
member his first essay made public. His con
troversy with Commodore Aulick - is no doubt
familiar to Our readers.
The hero of Vienna has devised anew plan
to replenish his exhausted funds. Upon his
own authority, without any remonstrance fiom
the Governor of the State, he has imposed a
tat of three thousand dollars en a district in
Ilarford county. and ordrred its immediate
payment, from each family so mulcted, under
penalty of imprisonment, into the hands of one
of his minions.
But he is not satisfied with these exhibitions
of his financial skill ; he is equally anxious to
demonstrate his mititary energy. A captain in
the confederate army, killed at Gettysburg.
had been buried by the Federal troops, subse
quently exhumed, brought to Baltimore, and
deposited in the vault of the Greeomouat Oetue
Levy. By permission of General Samna, the
friends of the deceased were authorized to wit
ness the removal of the remains of the Confect=
erase captain from the vault to the family lot,
provided there was no display. There was
none. But scarcely had the sad c.remonies been
c3mpleted, ahem a military forte appeared and
arrested a large number of mourners The only
allegation made to vindicate ibis tyrannical
outrage was,t het the deceased had been arrayed
in a full suit of Confederate uniform before in
terment. The superintendent of the Cemetery
affirmed that the corpse had not been touched
since it had been deposited in the vault. No
argument is necessary to impress the horror of
this outrage on the minds of a Christian people.
We append an aocouut of this shocking and
barbarous proceeding, taken from General
Schenck's organ, t he Baltimore American :
ARRESTS AT GREENMOUNT CEMETERY —Some
excitement prevailed yesterday at the Green
mount Cemetery, in consequence of the arrest
of a number of persons by order of the [tali-,
tary authorities, upon the charge of at ending
lite funeral of a rebel officer, and making some
diaplay on the occasion. The fact.; of the case
are as follows a Shortly alter the breaking
out, of the rebellion a young man named Wm.
D. Brown; well known in South 'Baltimore as
a eizipbuilder, left here, went Stiuth, and, en
listing in the rebel army, received a Captain's
commission. In the recent battle near Gettatee
burg he received a mortal wound, and wee
buried by the Federal soldiers. At the in
stance of his mother, the remains were ex•
humed ail brought to this city and deposited
in the public vault of. the cemetery. As it was
designed to have the body buried in the lot of
the family, Me Charles R Coleman, eaahter
of the Mechanics' Bank, and a relative of the
deceased, called on General Schenck, and was
assured that no interference would be made.
providing that the proceedings were conducted
without display.
Accordingly, the relatives and frielids One
deceased assembled at the cemetery, (public
notice having been given in the neweptpers,)
and attended the interment, the Rev. Henry
Slicer officiating. Soon as the exercises ter
minated several military officers appeared and
arrested eighteen of the party. They were
ennilneted in carriages to the headqtrarters of
General Tyler. in the Gilinor [louse, and there
remained until about 9 o'clock, when Colonel
Cheseborough, of the stuff of General Schenck,
appeared and released the whole party upon
their promise to appear at General Schenck's
headquarters this morning at. 9 o'clock. * *
There were many persons at the funeral, in
c'udteg a number of ladies, but they were not
arrested. Of the parties arrested it should be
stated that at least three-fourths are uncondi
tional Union men, and developed their love of
C o untry even on the 19ttt of April. when some
of our military lacers Were elkerpobing their
weapons to drive back- the defenders of the
nation's capital.
The sun states the additional facts, that Mr.
Brown, the father of tbe the deceased, said
that he had called on the military authorities
and was told that there would he no objections
to the funeral, and the body might be hurled
anywhere; that information had reached Col
Don. Platt, Chief of Mej. Gen. Schenck's
staff, that the body of Ceptei Brown had been
dressed in a new confederate uniform . for
burial, and upon Chet information the arrest
of the parties. was ordered ; hut the superin
tendent of the cemetery declared that einee
the hotly was deposited in the vault it had not
been touched.
The Gazette says that the services in the
chapel were ctiiiffied strictly to those for the
burial of the dead ; that DO eulogistic die
.course was 'spoken ; and that the body was
clothed in the Buil which the deceased wore on
the field of battle .

CONSCBIPTION.—The Newpwryport Ifer
,,
aid (Abolition paper) is responsible for the
fullowing treasonable' language :
"Whether the consdrilnica 35,1 it - no w
steads is constitutional or not, we don't under
take to decide. if it be not, never should a
man be drawn under it; for our first duty is to
adhere strictly to the Constitution and - the
laws. 'Military necessity,' to oar
but
treason—inother form of treason. but no bet
ter than that set on foot by Jeff Davis in the
South, or the leaders of the riot in New York,
be they who they msy."
FEARFUL —The Newburyport Herald, in al
luding to the large per cent. of exemptions
granted by the enrolling officers, says ;
"One or two things is true—thfre is either
much pet - jury, or we are the most sickly peo
ple that ever had an existence. If it be true
that the young men from 20 to 45 are so dis
eased and debilitated es is reporied, what is
to be the physical condition or the next gene
ration, of which they arc to be the fatherst—
This a more fearful thought than even the re
bellion itself."
AN Lemma!As IN TROUBLE.—During the draft
in the Fourteenth Ward, Philadelphia; a few
days ago, au incident occurred that gave rise
to much merriment. In the crowd there stood
a pale-faced Irishman, with his bands crossed
and arms behind his bank. He gazed intently
as each name was drawn from the wheel of
destiny. He had not been heard to speak a
word to anybody. Presently he appeared to
be operated upon by some unseen galvanic
battery. During his spasm he exclaimed in
an F sharp tone :
"Whet.' it round wherl it round roue° it
will yet" shouted the man. He was evident ,
ly full of dread suspense.
“What's the matter with you ?" said the
Provost Marshal.
"Oh. be jabers, turn it round a dozen of

THE DEAD M'Conxc—Sinuftwal.--The death
of Major Daniel M'Coblf, of Onto, turnishes
some melancholy coinei fences in the hist . ory
of his family in connection with the war.' Rig
youngest son, Charles, was killed at the first
battles of Bull R'in, on the 21'st day of July,
1861 ; his son, Colonel Robert M'Cook, was
killed on the 21st day of July, 1862. and the

in Ohio, on the 21st day of July, 1863.
A SOUND OPIN/ON —"Bunatty," of the Utica

‘‘Provided tfeade has force enough, and is

WHAT SOLDIERS' "SNACKS" ARK MADE Or:
The Petersburg (Va ) Express, of Saturday,
has the following paragraph, which will cause
a weak feeling in the stomach of soldiers who
have taken "snacks" in that. town :
•The negro women (two in number) who
served cooked dog Meat IC the soldiers near
this city, a day or two since, were caught, and
a whipping of thirty-nine lashes adminisiered
to seen. The dish was served in the shape of
a Brunswick stew, in which dog and pork meat
were promiscuously mixed, and dealt out to
purchasere at the rate of one dollar a snack.
Though a singular taste was observed about
the meat, the discovery that. any portion of it
was canine was not. made until a considerable
part of the stew had been eaten: An exami
nation of the bones was then m rife, when they
were found to be veritable dog bones. We are
glad to know that a swift and Just punistiment
was visited upon the women who perpetrated
this, iutamous dseeption."
