THE -FLOATING STRAW.
1=1:1MIMI
The wild waves are my nightly pillows,
Beneath me roll the Atlantic billows ;
And mkt rest on my couch•of brine
I watch the eternartilanets &MAO.
Ever I ride ' -
On a harmless tide,
• -
Fearing naught—enjoying nli, things. —
Undliturbed hyrgreat or mall things.
Alas! for the-lordly vessel
That sails so gallantly; •
The winds may dash it.
The storms may wash it.
•
The lightnings rend Its toll masts three t
tint neither the wind, nor the rain, nor the sea
Can Injure me—can Injure me;
Therlichiningv cannot strike•me down,
Whirlwinds wreck, or whirlpools drown ;
And the skip to be lost era the break of morn,
May pass o'er my head In saucy scorn,
And when the night unveils its face.
I may flout unharmed in my usual place,
And the ship may show to the pitying stars
No remnant bill her broken spars.
, Among the shells
Ut theVean'aells
The ships, the crews, end the captains lie,
But the floating shaw looks up to the sky;
And the immble and tontented man,
Unknown to innate, escapes tree ban,
A'nd rides secure when breakers Into. •
And mighty ships go down to the deep.
May pleasant tweezes Waft them hnme " •
That plonkliwith the ir keels the driving foam,
Heaven be their hope, and Truth their law;
•
There needs no prdyer.for the Boutin straw.
THE TWO HUSB,ANDS
=
111 ANY years ago f haPpened to be one of
the referees in a case that excited unusual
interest in our courts, from the sip;ular na
ture of the claim, and The strange story which.
it disclosed. The plaintiff, who was the
captain of, a merchfint ship which traded
principally with the West Indies, had mar
ried quite early with every prospect of hap
piness. hlis wife was said to have been ex
tremely beautiful, and no less lovely in cha
racter.
• After. living with . her in the. most uninter
rupted harmony for'five years, during which •
time two daughters were added to the lenti
l!, he suddenly resolved to resume hts Oc
cupation, which he had relinquished on his
marriage, and when his youngest child was
but three weeks old, sailed .once more for
.the West Indies. His wile, who was.devci
jedly Ottached - to him,'sorreWed deeply at
•hia absence, and bound her °lily comlort in
the society of the children and the hopes of
his return. But month after month passed
away, and he game not, nor did any letters,
those insufficient but welcome substitutes,
arrive to cheer her solitude; Monthsr length
ened into year', yet no tidings Were receiv
ed from the, absent husband ; and after ho
ping against hope, the unhappy wife was
compelled to behave that he Itad found a
grave beneath the weltering ocean.
Her sorrow was deep and heartfelt, but
the. evils of poverty were new added' to her
afflictions, and tite widow found herself o
liligedLto resort to some employment in 'or
der, to support her children. Het needle
teas the, only resource, and for ten years she*
labored early and late for the miserable pit
lance which is ever grudgingly bestoWed on
an humble seamstress.
A merchant to New York, in• oderate
but 'prosperous circumstances, accidentally
became acquainted with her, and, pleased
with her gentle manners no less than her ex
treme beauty, endeavored to improve their
acquaintance with Friendship.
Aher some months be ''ofiered , his hand,
and was accepted. As the • wife 'of a enc.
cessful merchant, she soon found herself in
the enjoyment of comlortwand luxuries, such
as she - had never possessed._ Her children
became his children, and_receiyed horn hitn
ever'y advantage which wealth and affection
could procure. • • • '
Fifteen 'yenra passed away; the daughters
married, and by their step fattier were fur-.
niched with every comfort requisite in their
new avocation as houseiceepers. • But they
had hardly quitted his roof when their miith.:
Or was taken ill. She died after a LOW days,
and.from.that time until the portod of which

:•,. ,•
youngest daughter.. . •. ,

BROX& A BLOOD ViSSEt.--Till . rase is

blood, thkt' n large . blood-vesiel has given

times beconfe diseased, auitgive way; but,
in the great number ol instances in which
spitting of blood arises, the blood is exclu

the nose. On inspection after death of the '
greater parl - ol the bodies of those who have
'lost large quantities of Dlood
. by spitting, no
trace has been discovered of ruptured vessels,
so that the term is not to be considered literal
in Its application to the ordinary case of spit

HYDROPHOBIA..--The notion that hydropho

communicate the disease; is a popular error,.
which I should think scarcely needs contra
' However, it !teems that the idea .
appeared worthy of contradiction some years
ago.
.In the second volume of a work
which Desault published—"Sur la Picrie des
Reins, et de la Vessie"—in 1735, he treats .
of the hydrophobia, and alludes to thiano
tion with the ridicule it deserves.
In respect to hydrophobia, there also is i
gr was, an opinion that the patients suffering
flom_Lhe _complaint are smothered - by the
- attendants. i should think such an idea
could now . only exist amongst the unrefiect-
In not to say ignorant ; yet it appears that
a practice, almost amounting to this was ac.

Belmont. '.lle kept his plients under wa

Drowning is only like another - way of
smothering,- and this was certainly carrying
too far the old adage of 'despetate' remedies
for desperate diseases. • Whilst on the sub
ject of hydrophobia, I may'mention i that the
prevailing idea of its being pectiliar, or even
,more frequently, in the summer season, is'
called in question by very high- authority.—
That practice of muzzling dogs, during
what is called the 'dog-days' id (ommon,

nes, they • operated by causing

to be . very siegolar; and Michael lf.liercatus
says that this effect of toads is a truth, which
any person willing to take the .trouble, may
sattsfy htinsoll of by'a very simple experi
ment; for if you hang the toad round a coal
neck' for.a'day orso, you may then cut off
his head, and the neck will notybleed a sin
gle drop! These particulars areaufricient to
.show that the old modes of treatment were
not the most pleasant th.ot.,can be conceived.
SEVEN' ItZsas.—People conceive that
there is a change every,Beven years in the
constitution. That a change is continually
going or. there can .be.no doubt. We know
that an infant grows to a full sized•man, and
consequently there must be a change of
particles—a removal of some, and a ltesh
deposition . of others--else we should have
a mere superimposition •ot parte, and the
body of the intent would be continued in
that of the adult. ' But as• , ,lrillie seven years;
for — my - pea — hurter s taedThow
people satisfied themielvestliat- such chart
gerrwere completed in exactly seven years.
have often been asked by my. patients , :
'Dr. do you think I shall ever get rid of
comjilaint ? they say there is a change every
seven years; I look forward:for-this:Mtn; for .
I have already been ill five.' Theßennin
Lustrurn wasithink, a 'space et five yesirs,
the Greek Olympia a space of lour years,
but the seven years is the favorite period
chosen as the one which regulates the chan
ges of , the body in the public opinion. Of
course a period like this will bring 1 00 W
many changes, and one cannot but look for
ward to such a period with feelings of inte
rest and anxiety; stilt there seems no good
rnasons to select this as the prescribed limits
for the operations-of nature. . .
Ov Scesoris.—There is a common, and
very old notion, that what are called cooling
medicines, should be taken at, particular pe
riods of the year, especially in the spring.--
Every practitioner will occasionally - be con
sulted on this subject, and very often st,great
disposition is shown by metrical men to fall
in with popular views.- Many a pithr, child
has been condemned to a pot of larimstont3
and 'treacle because it was spring -time.
imagine parents . are not always ready to
carry out these views in their 'titan eases.—
Hippocrates advocate such a system in the
47tti aphorism, section vi 'lf bleeding or
purging be requisite,' says he,}spring is the
most convenient time for either.' lle repeats
the same•view in other places. • There was
a great deal of importance attached to sea
sons in the treatment of diseases by the old
medical authorities; but we find very little
on this subject in our best modern 'works.—
For my part ,I don't eee why we should take
physic unleeit we.are ill. The public have
very curious, and, 1 should think, very ill
defined ideas of cooling physic and of mee
mines for ptitifying the blood. That the an
cients set considerable importance on sea
sons, will appear from the most casual
inspection of their works. Thus /Etinus, in
his directions for the cure of .the gout, laid

horseradish; in May, from the fish called
polypus; in June he must take cold water in

practiced ; in Augest., he musenot eat mal.

PROUD Fuesa.—Patients 'will frequently
come to us to know it there is any proud
flesh in their wounds. The fear : of proud
flesh is Nary general, and brings mnnv pa
tients to the doctor whom be would otherwise
never see. When a wound is.atteeded . with
loss of substance, it is graduelli'filled up'by
by the growth of the surrounding ; parts —a
process,which is called granulation !tom : the

A TA Li OF TRUTU.
DURING a brief termof missionary service •
in which I was engaged some years since ; I

an incident in it, affords another striking ex

living fay for the gratification or his vicious
thirst for strong drink. His wile, too, once
his bosom iriand, became his bosoni corn
*penion in his debauchery. Nnr did his in
fluence end here. He not only taught his
childien, lnj his example, to Court the' vice,
but, he . compelled them to drink: :Unlike
most parents who are drunkards themselves,
he seamed desirous to renderlhem degraded

broke through his lather's influence, and he
became a respectable and respected 'mem

Incredible as ,it May appear one of his
- Children actually 'died of ' intemperance, a
miserable drunkard, at the age of twelve
years, While he was in a dying condition
the father sent for a supply of the poison
which was - causing his death, and when he
breathed his last, his family was in estate of
beastly intokicafion. His body remained
upon the bed, in the same state in which he
died, fur a. day or ,two, atirl—nothing was
done, nor were they able, to do anything to
prepare it for burial. A neighbor , accidental
ly having prepared a coffin, placed the re

than a mile distant, taking with them the
jug of rum. Atriving at the grave-Yard ,they
