When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary fur ono peopk) to di.l.solve the political hands which have connected them with. another, and to assume, among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal stations to which the laws of nature and of nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel thehi to the separation. We bold these truths to be selfevi dent, that all men aro created equal ; that they aro endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these, aro life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. That, to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed ; that, whenever any form of I , ,overnment be comes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to after or IA abolish it, and to institute a new gov ernment, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, an to them shall seem most likely to effect their safely and happi ness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established, should not, be changed for light and transient causes; and, accordingly, all experience lath shown, that mankind arc more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they aro accustomed. But, when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursu ing invariably the same object., evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw otr such government, and to provide new guards for their fu ture security. Such has been the pa tient sufferance of these colonies, and such is now the npeei.sity which con strains thorn to alter their former sys tems of government. Tho history of the present king of Great Britain is history of repeated injuries and usurpa tions, all having, in direct object, the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these States. To 'prove this, lot, face be submitted to a candid world : He has refused his assent to laws the most, wholesome and necessary'for the public good. Ho has forbidden his Governors to pass laws of immediate and pressing im portance, unless suspended in their °potation till his assent ehould ho ob tained ; sad, when so suspended, be has utterly neglooted to attend to them.

Ile has endeavored to prevent the ilopulation (+Wiese States; for that pur pose, obstructing the laws for naturali zation of foreigners; refusing to pass others -to enconrage their migration hither, and raising the conditions of new appropriations of lands. Ito has obstructed the administration of jnsLieo, by refusing his assent to laws for establishing judiciary- powers. 1143 has made judges dependent on his will alone, for the tenure of their offi ces, and the amount and payment of tkcir salaries. lie has erected a multitude of new offices, and sent hither swarms of offi cers to harass oar people, and-eat out their substance. lie has kept among us, in times of peace, standing armies, without the consent of our legislatures. lie has affected to render the military independent of, and superior to, the civil power. lie has combined, with others, to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to mar-constitution, and unacknowledged by our taws ; giving his assent to their acts of pretended legislation : For quartering largo bodies of armed troops among us : For protecting them, by a mock trial, from punishment,. for any murders which they should commit on the in habitants' of these States: .Iro has abdicated g . overnment hero, by kind:wing us out. of his Protection, and waging war against ns. He has plundered our seas, ravaged our coasts, hnrnt our towns, and de stroyed the lives of our people. Ho is. at this time, transporting largo armies of foreign mercenaries to com plete the works of death, desolation, and tyranny, already begun, with cir cumstances of cruelty and perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbar ous ages, and totally nnwortby the head of a civilized nation. Ito has constrained our fellow-citi zens, taken captive on the high seas, to bear arms against their country, to be come the executioners of their friends and brethren, or to fall themselves by their hands. lie has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and, los endeavored to fflemorratir, t amii Pleurnal.

The terrible ravages which tobacco smoking is making on the minds and bodies of the young, seems to be attracting the attention of medical men in various parts of the world. In a pamphlet just issued by Dr. Seymour, of Lindon, on private Lunatic Asylums, and the cause of insanity of late years, tho Dr. de nounces with emphasis as one of the prod's cing causes, the practice of immoderate smok ing, indulged in by boys awl young men of the universities and "largo schools, now cal led colleges." The Doctor's remarks are as applicable to the youths ., of this country as those ofEitircpa. No elle eeeversant • with disease can doubt that excessive smoking, especially in the cause of young people, mast be highly injurious to both mind and body. Its eifeo is to depress Ile circulation—the heart becomes weak, irregular in its action, and the pulse is rower lylo be felt. Tito victim becomes irresolute and nervous, hie appetite fails, and his mind fills with imaginary evils. This may coatis. ue for years, but at length the smoker dies oT suddenly ; then examination has shown that the muscular structure of the heart is imper fect in its action ; the left side ki thin, and in some MOS, in which sudden detail, has occur red, thero bas been found little more than a strip of muscular fibre left it °a that side.— The question of restraining boys from smoking is rather a difficult one to deal with, but the , grave interests at stake seen: to demand that! some action should be taken in the premises. Plant Them. j The villages of New 'England are among, the ; pleasantest in the world, and Lille chief f, ec re '; of their charms is summed up in one word:: Trees. The people yrlin laid them out a cells tury or two ago, had the good donee to plant a few score of young trees about the green ‘, along the streets, and envulup the place in shade. The mectuest cottage is pleasant and picturesque if it stands beneath a lino old • tree. The poorest village is good to live in if it nestles under giant trees. Plant trees.— Plant them round the school hptise. l'hint them round the church. Plant them on the common. Plant them along the street. Make all the villages and towns plea antwith trees. Tomatoos As the season is now npproaching when the a delicious articles will make their ap pearance in onr markets, we insert the follow ing method of preparing, them for the table, which we are assured by one alto has made the experiment, is superior to anything yet discovered for the preparation of this excel lent vegetable Take good ripe tomatoes, cut them in slices, and sprinkle over them finely pulverized white sugar, then add claret wino sufficient to cover them. Tomatoes are sometimes pre pared in this way with diluto4 Vinegar, but claret wine imparts to them a richer and more pleasant flavor, more nearly resembling the strawberry than anything else. Tomato Honey. To each pound of tomatoes allow the grated peel of one lemon, and six fresh peach loaves, boil them slowly 'till they fall to pieces ; tboo squoese them through a bag ; to each pint of liquid allow a pound of sugar, and the juice of one lemon : boil all together half an hour until it becomes a thick jelly ; then put it in to glasses, and lay double tissue paper over the tops.

Tho two shores of this river aro connected by a long pine trunk, stripped of hark and poli,dietl, which must be used as a bridge. The good man passes with a srm and secure ctep across this slippery bridge, reaches the happy hunting grounds, and en ters on the posscision of eternal youth and strength. His sky is always clear, a owl breeze is perpetually blowing_ for him, and he ranee his time in sailing, hunting, danc ing, and boundless felicity. The had man, when he Mops upon the bridge, sees the two overhanging shores totter, he attempts to es eine, and fhlls into the abyss below, where the water is rushing with the sound of thun der over rocks; where the sir is poitoned, by the exhaLitions from dead fish and other ani mal bodies, and the water whirling round and round, brings him always back to the same point; where all the trees are withered ; whore it swarms with lizards, snakes and toads ; here the dead are hungry and bare nothing to eat ; where the living lead' a did eased life and cannot die.

The whole audience apparently .were on their feet. After they were seated again the wiuia• ter continued : "Now it there is a single one hero who desires to see Satan and his kingdomprosper, he will rise,and bold ap his band."

Ono day last week, as the eastward bound express train reached Laporte, Ind., a passen ger stepped off while the engine was being replenished with wood and water, and walked back and forth on the platform, and contin ued to walk until the whistle sounded. The other passengers got on board and the train passed off, but the gentlemen still walked on. A few minutes after the train had gone, a station man saw the pedestrian, and, going up to him, asked in a surprised tone— "What the—are you doing here?" The man started, opened his eyes, and look ed around bewildered. Tho fact was, ho had been fatigued. and dropped asleep while .walking. Rousing himself, he asked: " Why! where am 1 ?" " Where are you? At Laporte." " Where's the train I came in? " That loft ten minutes ago." "Ten minutes ago and loft alio ! I moat go on that train. It is a quevtiois of life and death to me. Can you get mo to it? Ilave you got an engine hero ? Where is the Su perintendent?" The section master had an affiee near by, and the two wont to find that official and procure an engine. The traveler elided his case—he must go en—could not delay—and offered the offieer $250 if he would put him on board the train. This strange demand and strange offer caused the station master to has ten and do whatle could. The fire was not out of the engine that bad drawn the train to that point—the bargain was settled—a draft given on New York for $250, and in ten min utes the traveler started with an engine to overtake the flying express. After rushing on fur thirty or forty miles, some connection gave way about the enminc. The engine was stopped—the engineer found the difficulty, and in a few minutes had a wooden pin whitled oat and fitted to supply the deficiency. IVith this on they flew. The train had. of course, many miles the start of them and despite the wooden pin, the en gineer crowded on steam, and tore thro' the country at a fearful rate. Thirty miles of the distance passed was run in twenty-seven minutes, but the engagement was that they should overtake the train, and overtake it they did. but not until more than one hundred miles had been run, and they were approach ing Toledo. Having at length overtaken and stopped the train avid hernial ton board; the traveler went eagerly to a berth in the sleeping ear, and took therefrom a carpet bag containing $175,000.

The "night is chill and damp," for the rain k pouring. "Conductor," exclaims Mr. Crec. ley, "open that ventilator. or I shall die."— The conductor promptly obeys. The current of water-laden air rushes in, penetrating to the very marrow of the sick man. Ile hears it (or a few moments, shivering and shakinfr, like a man racked by ague. " Conductor," at last he squeaks out, "abut the ventilator. or I shall die." Conductor st.llld3 at nouplu.3.

Ito said ho took two from Philadelphia, and 014) from New York, besides the New Yurk Ledger, which made four, and that was too mally fOr a poor man. Be thought ho would try to do, without the Gazette, as it was publisheilizt home, and he didn't need it as much as those that conts.:ned the news from abroad. The Editor said nothing, but when his time e pireil, stopped the paper as directed. Laid week, however, the "discontinues;" sub scriber came and ordered the paper again,— Ho did nut know before, ho said, how inter eating - the local news was. Since ho htid supped it, he WWI entirely ignorant of all that was going on in the city and county, and he missed it more than he would hate missed alt his other papers put together.
