They bad a Mime of it id the city, but for fear they would get dry before getting home they procured a jug of whisky, and after dark, of a black night too, they embarked in a boat expecting to roach home in the morn ing. They rowed away with all theener gy that three half tipsy fellows could mus ter, keepiug up their spirits in the dark ness by pouring spirits down. At break of day they thought that they must be near home, and ,seoing through the dim grey of the morning house on the river ,lido, Stone said : "Well, Barham, we've got to your•plaoo "If this is my house," said Barham, "somebody,has boon putting up a lot of outhouses since I wont away yesterday '; but I'll go ashore and look about, and see wheie we are, if you'll hotive to," Barham disembarks, takes observations, , and soon comes stumbliug along book, and says— " Well, I'll be whipped if we ain't. at Wilmiogton bare yet—:and whit's more; tho boat has been hitched to tho wharf all night It! , • It was afact, and the drunken , dogs had been rowing away for dear life, without knowing it.=Haipers' . . •'TuANKS V' muttered our , bachelor friend; 4%0 more women in , Heaven—they can't get in.

GITTYSBURG: Pk, FRIDAY, EItENIN a G i AUGUST 15, 1856. Checked Persplratloh ! Is the - friiitful clause of Sickness, disc ease and deathoto m j nititudes every year.— If a tea-kettle of later is boilipg on the fire, the steam is seen issuing from the spout. carrying the extra, heat, away with it, butlf the li J be. fastened down, and the • , spout be plugged, a destructive explosion followlt in .a very skint time. lie# is constantly generated within the human body, by , the chemical disorganiza tion, the combustion of the food we eat. Thera are seven millions of tubes or pores on the surface of the body, which in health are constantly open, conveying . from the, system by what' is called insensible prespi ration this , internal, heat which, having an• aware(' its purpose, ia passed off like the jets of steam which are thrown, from the escape-pipe, in puffs, of any ordinary steam engine'; but this insensible prespiration carries with it, in a dissolved form, 'very much of the waste matter, to the extent of a pound or two or more every twenty four hours. It must be apparent, that, if the pores of the skin are closed, if the mul titude of valves, which are placed over the whole surface of the human body are shut down, two things take place. First, the internal heat is prevented from passing off, it accum elates every moment, the per son expresses himself as burning up, and large draughts of water are swallowed to quench the internal fire—this we call "Fe ver." When the warm steam is constant ly escaping from the body in health, it keeps the skin moist, and there is a soft, pleasant feel and warmth about it. But when the pores aro closed, the skin feels hursh, dad hot, and dry. But another result follows the closing of the pores of the akin, and more immediate ly dangerous ; a main outlet for the waste of the body is closed, it . re-miugles with the bleed, which, in a few hours be6outes impure, and begins to generate disease in every fibre of the system—the whole ma chinery of the man becomes at once dis ordered, and he expresses himself as 'feel ing miserable." The terrible effects of this checked perspiration of a dog, who sweats only by his tongue, is evinced by his becoming "mad." The water runs in streams from a dog's mouth in summer if I exercising freely.' If it ceases to run that ' is hydrophobia. It 'has been asserted by a French Physician,,that if a person , suffer leg under, Hydiophohia can be only made , to perspire freely, hots cured at once.- It is familiar to the commcineit observer,4at in all ordinary forms of disease, the patient AtcCbetto r ,...tiV. 11?9,ime , tit. he, be ginslo-persr sitopkt l liiicratute t he: inter nal heat is passing off, and there is an out let for tho waste of the system. Thus it is that ono of the tuost important means for curing all sickness, is bodily cleanliness, which is simply removing from the; mouths of these little pores. that gum, a ad dust, and oil, which clog them up. Thus it is, also, tha t personal cle.anliness is one of the main elements of health ; thus it is, that filth and disease hubitate together the world over. There are two kinds of perspiration, sensible and insensible. When we see drops of water ' on the surface of the body, as the result o f exercise, or suin.idence of fever, that is sensible perspiration, perspi ration recognised, by the sense of sight.— But when perspiration is so gentle that it cinnot be detected in the sham of water drops, when no moisture can be 'felt, when it is known to us only by email:Fag/Mess of the skin, that is insensible perspiration, and is so gentle, drat it may be checked to a 7ery considerable extent without special injury. But to use popular language, which'cannot be mistaken, when a man is ssveatiug freely. and is suddenly checked. and the sweat is not brought out again in a very few , moments, eudden and painful sickness is a very certain result. What then checks perspiration I A draft of air'ivbile we are at rest, after exercise, or getting the clothing wet and remaining at rest while, it is so. Getting out of a warm bed and going to an open door or window, has been the death of multitudes' A lady heard thecry of fire ut midnight; it was bitter cold ; it was so, near, the flames illuminated her chamber. She left the bed, hoisted the window, the cold Wind chilled her Ma moment.. From that hour until her dcuth, a quarter of a century la ter, she never saw a well day. A young lady , went to a window in her night•cdothes to look at Something in, the street, leaning her unprotected arms on the storm which was cl,inp and cold. She became an invalid'aod will remain so for life Sir Thomas 'Colby, being in a proltiee sweat one night, happened to remember hat ho had left the key of hie wine cellar on the parlor table, and fearieg his ser vants might improve the Inadvertence and drink some of his wine, he left his bed, walked down stairs, the sweating process was checked, from which he, died in a filw dayis, leaving six millions of dollars in, the English funds His illness was so brief and`diolent that he had' no Opportunity to Make his will, an t d his immense property was divided amotVg five or six day laborers who were his nearest relations.

The Rev. Dr. Mull len burg of N. York, is one of the most promi nent advocates of these 'changes, and has written a pamphlet iu favor of extempore prayer. Op this subject be says ; ~ T o pray for and with the people as the Spirit. shalt move him, is an inherent right with the;minister of the gospel.: Whether as a prophet, pastor. or priest. this estieutially . belongs to his office. Ecclesiastical au thority may regulate him in the cm:et:doe of it, but never can deprive him of, it To forbid, therefore, the utterance ofilte Ho ly Spirit,And to deny the minister of God, and in his ministrations in that • eiipacity, the expreasion of any other thoughts, feel ings. or desires, than such as have been anticipated, for him." "GODIXMASTERPIEOE."—Fat h a French Jesuit, has written a hook iu which ho argues that God made attempts. like a human artificer, before lie succeeded in producing the Virgin Mars. ..God performed many miracles," says M. Binet, "before arriving at that wonder of wonders. God made the sun and stars to learn how to form Mary's eyes. He made roses, lil ies., pearls, diamonds, alabaater, to exercise himself to fashion the virgin modeity, in nocence, angelic face and queenly 'brow of Mary.

But so far as those, rumors assert, or imply, that he is a Roman Catholic, they are without the slightest foundation in fact. I presume that, from proper motives of delicacy and self-respect, Col. Fremont, will nut publish anything himself on the su West, or take any part personally in the cativo& But he converses with the ut most freedom upon these topics as uponAl others; he Vas no desire nor disposition to practice any coqualment of his opinions . and I have tio rea s on to suppose that he would desire others to do so on his be. half. Col. Fremont is not now, nor ban he ever been, a Roman Catholic. His fath er dying` when ho was fivo years old, be was educated - exclusively'in Protestant . schools, and at the age of sixteen was con. finned, of his own motion and from sin- cent conVietion' • .iu the Protestant Episco pal Chuch, of which he has continued ever since to bo a:member.
