Dun READER :—ln the course of human events, it seemed recently to become neces- nary that I should visit certain churches, friends, and places, by way of relaxation, to recuperate, if possible, physical energies, which had become much enfeebled.by a too vigorous effort to discharge the onerous and unending duties belonging to a large pastor al charge. Village and country pastors, be it known to' you, need rest just as certainly and' an frequently, as do those of our cities; and you know that the latter generally make the tour of Eurepe every semi-decade to re gain health, and acquire information; and when they return they entertain us with graphic accounts of what they saw and did, heard and said. Mine, was a land-trip, ,at my own expense, and not a ica-voyage, paid for out of the pockets'of kind' parishibners. It was short, and soon over ; but was, notwithstanding, quite ; interesting to 'me, and try and make it so to you. • Soon after leaving home, I found myself in the,eity of Beßair, a plitee ofsome note, at the •Eastern :terminus' of • the Columbus and Railroad, five miles below Wheeling, on' the Ohio line. The town is growing rapidly, and the population contains a respec table per centage of ' Presbyterians, who are soon, it is said, to be organized into a church; and I am told an edifice is about being erected for the accommodation of the said- ety; and from the specie/ens of Presbyte rianism that • I saw in the place and its vicinity, I have not the least doubt but that the enterprise, with God's blessing, will be carried through speedily, and nobly. From this place I went some miles into the country, where I remained a few.weeks in the family of a kind friend ; and here I had ample opportunity to see the almost incredi ble productiveness of the soil of this region. Although the hills are •so high that they might, with propriety,, be named the Ohio MOWlttaill,S, yet their sides are as fertile as their summits are ;exalted. Combining, as they do, the useful with the grand, in forms the most imposing possible ' they are alike attractive to the farmer and the sightseer. Never did I see land covered with a thicker coat of greener grass and grain, than are the al*S of iftese towering hills. That any one should wish to exchange a' farm here fora low,' flat, swampy, frosty, sickly section of any Western prairie -land, can be accounted for'only, it seania to me, on the' prineifold ofa dementation superinduced by &fancy the most;morbidlmaginable. To the credit' of the people, be it said that few have done it, and, according to reports, this few now see and repent their folly. Thereis a fine church. of our order, a short distance from where I was stopping. On the Sabbath, of course, E attended it. The church is now without a regular pastor. For merly they diVided the ministerial services of the Rev. B. Mitchell with the church of Mount Pleasant. Both the churches at length growing, strong, each laid in a call for the whole titne of this good brother. Mount Pleasant having the oldest claim on 'the pas tor, was the successful competitor; so the ' church to which I alltide was left vacant and now offers many inducements to any minister who may wish to become the pas tor of a large, wealthy, and highly respecta ble congregation. It ;was,rather a singular circumstance that the day lattended this church, three Presby terian ministers , happened to be present, and all,too, originally frOm the. Associate Reformed 41;11eurelc—two of them quite recently. These ,preached, 'and two better sermons it has sel dnut been my privilege to hear. Bitl,musttake exceptiOn to some things rsaw'abouttliolinbita of the people that 'I did-not like ; and Ido hope, for the sake of gond order, (which is one of the elements of true religion) that they will atone abandon them. I allude to the un-Presbyterian mode of, eitting-r-the,men and women being separ ated. But what is singular, the men in the church occupy the two ranges of slips at the sides next the windows, leaving the two middle ranges for the ladies; and thus the former sat as cool' as cueumbers; whilst the latter seemed almost overcome with heat, as Was evident from the motion and rattle of a hundred fans. The family-pew mode of sitting not being' adopted, the congregation had, byno means, a prepossessing appearance to a Presbyterian eye. A batch of -young boys sat in one place, and a squad of girls in' another. Here was a section of the ehureh filled with young men, and over there, about an equal number - young ladies. Even the lathers and the mothers sat almost as separate as Quakers ! During interval these different companies go out, and come .$ in together, which, to me, looked very badly. And here, as elsewhere, I notice that most of the young men, and' some of the older ones, too, did not pretend to come in, after interval, till admonished that service had ac ' Melly commenced, by the voice of the min ister, as he 'read the hymn. This shameful breach of decorum is too common in all our country churches, and should be at once abandoned by all lovers of good ,order. There is scarcely any thing more uncouth and impolite, in the eyes of a man of re , fined taste, than to see, on 'Sabbath morn= hag; from twenty to thirty men, and boys Rerohed upon the yard fence of the church, r No many turkeysonitrooptinuole. et them tether about ,the c iteb - i and then—rush into the - Wraith to. gether, walking as hurriedly down the aisle, as if they imagined the floor to be giving way under their feet I* There is no order of sitting so desirable as the family-pew system. Much as may be said against it, more can be said in its favor than in that of any other. Even the Meth odists in our cities are abandoning their old mode of sitting, and adopting the household mode ; and they confess it to be the best. It shows that men, know how to behave themselves, and it also indicates the strength and purity of the family ties. After remaining for sometime in this re gion, I went aboard a train of cars, bound for Pittsburgh, on the " Circumbendibus" branch of the Pittsburgh and Cleveland Road, and soon found myself in ,Bridgeport, where I. was sorry to see the new brick edi fice of the Presbyterian church a heap of ruins. It, had been prostrated by a heavy gale of wind, the previous evening. This was the more to be regretted, as I was told that this is the third time it has fealen.from a similar cause I .However, vigorous meas ures are about being taken, by an active and efficient Building Committee, headed by their pastor, the Rev. Mr. Boyd, to repair it, which will doubtless secure the hearty cooperation of all concerned. We' were whirled along , the beautiful shore of the Ohio •River, toward'Pittsburgh, at a wonderfUl rate of speed. For a new road, this is the best I ever traveled on; and its cars are the most elegantly 'finished and furnished of any I ever saw; and I have seen.those of.iourteen different States of our Uniou,,besides some in .Canada. ~We made, two changes,. with, a ,delay. of about as, many minutes n tand got, ,to . Pitts burgh in time‘for a late supper, which was served up for us at the St. Charles, in ,a, style that could not fail to please the, most fastidious epicure, after . which we retired to rest,,to dream of coming rambles in the City of Smoke and, vicinity, which we shall chronicle in order, in another letter or two the Editor willing. ZED. *Our correspondent speaks plainly ; but he utters words which should be heeded. Keep thy feet when thou goest to the house of God, is a Divine, precept. There is one adequate reason for the ladies sitting apart from the gentlemen ; but 'it is a reason which should be at once and forever removed—it is the filthiness caused by the use ea noxious weed. Tobacco should never be permitted to defile the sanctuary. It ,should be banished equally fr'em the pew and the pulpit. —ED. for tt yabieg. To Get Rid of House Ants. The best way to get rid of house ants is to set a quantity of cracked walnuts, or shell barks, on plates and put them in a' closet where the ants congregate. They are very fond of these and will-collect in them--in myriads. When they have collected in them, make a general auto-de fed by turn ing nuts and ants together into the fire, and then replace the plates with fresh nuts. After they have become so thinned off as to cease collecting on plates, powder some gum camphor, and put itin the holes and crevices; whereupon the remainder will ; speedily va mose. It may help the proem of getting them to assemble on the shellbarks, to remove all edibles out of their way for a time. Dlrections about Milking. Give the• cow an easy and pleasant place to stand. Be in good temper yourself. Ap proach her gently. Always have a good stool, and sit on it, if the cow will let you, while Milking. Commence very 'gently, es pecially if the cow is very sensitive, or her udder or teats are sore. When you: have fairly begun, milk with a regular, easy MO don, and as fast as you can without great fatigue, till you are done. Milk very Olean: if yea,milk in a large dairy,,always milk the same &owl, and let all'lhe •ilkera* have their own cow to milk. A cow is better contented, and will give more , milk, if she is always milked by the same ;:person. Wo men are the best linkers; but never set - a woman to Tank a cow that milks hard. It is too severe. Ilow TO COOK RHUBARB AND ASPARA- Grs.—lt is a common error in cocking rhubarb to peel it. This should never be done, as the skin contains the aroma of the plant and is not at all fibrous, but cooks as readily and becomes pulpy. We have de rived this information: from a French cook of note, experience and skill. The same cook tells us that' asparagus should .be cut into pieces about thtee-quarters of an inch long, before cooking. It should be boiled with a nice piece of salt _pork, and served up in tIM same manner as peas. FOR POLISHING FORNITURF.—Take two ounces of beeswax, and half an ounce of alkitiet root; melt them together in an earthen pot; when melted, take it- off the fire, and add two ounces spirits of wine, and half, a pint of spirits of turpentine. Rub it on with a woollen cloth, and polish it with a -clean silk cloth. - - To PRESERVE FLOWERS IN WATER.- Mi . - WATER.- Mix a little carbonate of soda with the and it , will 'preserve '' flowers for a fortnight f but the Ayaterin,flowerrpots-shnld bn'ehanged every diy in Sriternerrpr it will become offensivean& nnhealthy, , even-if there is salt in it.' . Afor tte fang. Keep the Sabbath young Man! And it will - keep you, 1. From all dangerous errors. These abound in the world, and dr'essed up in every kind of fascinating garb, and meet young men everywhere. But the spiritual keeper, of the Sabbath has a moral -coat of mail about him. These mimiles cannot penetrate it. 2. From bad trains of thought. Many give the reins to their thoughts, and suffer their imaginations to drive the ear. where they Please, if it only be the ear of "pleiSnre. But the drive is through regions of tempta tion, and toward the frightful precipice of ruin. But faithful Sabbath-keeping fur nishes better, even the best trains of thought : it creates a distaste for any other, and is therefore a powerful safeguard from evil thoughts. 3. It will keep you from- bad books. You will have an appetite that will loathe them and a discernment that will, show you that: though they may have the fair colors, they have the venom, too, of the serpent. We have ,never seen. a Sabbath-keeping young man fond of bad books. 41-. It will, of course, keep you from bad ',company. Your love for the Sabbath will cry yen, as a matter of *course, into the society of thosi who have, respect= unto all the commandments of tho,-Lord. Yon will dose aIP sympathy ;withevil doers ; ,„ Witlt the Sabbath in your heart, yjir 'cannot NAI II DE 111 lIV II ti walk in the course of the ungodly, nor stand in the way of sinners, nor sit in the seat of the scornful." 5. It will keep you from bad habits. Bad trains of thought, and bad books, and bad company, are very certain to produce bad habits. But the sanctified Sabbath, like the angel that guarded Aen, wields a flam ing two-edged sword against them all: Every hallowed Sabbath will help to cot.firm and fix the power of all good trains of thought, all good books, and all virtuous habits. 6. It will keep you in the path that all the true and faithful servants of God have trodden, which, being that of the just, shineth,more and more to the perfect day. Young man ! Are not these six reasons enough to bind your heart to the Sabbath You keep, and are kept. You honor it; it honors you. • Vietrp'. The Neeting-Plaee. BY DH. H. BO2PAB 7 ',;OF KELSO.

H. Wood, of Lowell,. addressed _the distincuished Dr. S.,L. Dana, requesting information relating' to the cheapest and best kinds of food. 'The answer of Dr; Dana has been published in, the Medical World,;. it is scientific—as might be expected, coming from such high chemical - and physiological authority—and it also; Contains much useful information little known to the community in general. We will endeavor to present the Substance of its most important points, because we believe such knowledge should be circulated ' , through every corner -of the world, concerning, as it does, the- welfare of every human being. It has been laid down as a law: of physio logical chemistry, that all food, serves two distinct purposes; one part,, for building the body, forms the blood out of which comes all the animal tissues; the other part forms' fat, and, furnishes the fuel by which the animal heat is kept up througb the pro cess of breathing. Food contains flesh, blood, and tissue formers, in . proportion to their amount of nitrogen. When chemistry, therefore, determines the amouneof nitrogen in any kind, of food, it expresses the, rela tive value of that 'food:for these purposes. The starch, gum,' fat, sugar, .and w'ater, and occasionally a portion of -woody fiber or grain, rarely t) the wants * Of, These stibstinges are the fuel formers, out:of which•faV may be formed, Which is as essential- 'as 'blood. ;Ten , parts of Tat are egad to twerity:four 'parts of starch, grape, and milk sugar in heating power. . • Life cannot long be maintained by any food that fulfills 'only one part.of the process of nutrition. A man fed:only on:that food which forma blood and tissue, soon dies of starvation, and so does the 'man that is only fed on fuel-forming food; and if a man is deprived' of 'certain salts, such , as common salt, compounds of sulphur, phosph&us, pot ash, soda, lime, :magnesia, and iron,he can ' not long survive. And even, if fed on all these three classes of substances,' he will die of starvation, unless allowed a certain pro portien of ready formed" fat, - in addition to the fat that may be formed out of the other elements of his food. Nature has taught us the type of our food, viz., milk. It contains the essentials of four great groups.of substances on which nutrition in its widest sense depends. The • elements of milk are, lst., Curd, whiehls a blood former; it contains all the nitrogen and all the sulphur. 2d., Butter, which ;is fat. 3d. Sugcir, which is a:filel formeror heater. 4th., Salts—soluble and insoluble the earth of bones, potash, soda, and phosphoric acid. Such are the substances which nature has prepared for our first food—a mixture of four groups of substances, to suit human wants, according to its age. We should imitate this best natural mixture of those `substances de signed as the food'of man. - In vegetable and animal, food, there are substanees representing those contained" hi milk. Dr. Danamerely alludes tothose of fieh and flesh, Aid — Adis,(*lfich;iaawn, e- 1 thing new to moat persons) that the flesh of BANNER AND ADVOCATE fish contains the same amount of nutrient matter, as e flesh„ of oxen. Albumen forms gristl sinews, mernbrane, muscle, nails, and is ound in the nerve tubes. Fat is a lubricani, assists to form cells, and it forms part End parcel of all the chemical changes which the body undergoes, and is re quired for u t pre purposes than merely heat ing the body Sugar never forms part of the animal tiitues, but it performs an import ant office in e changes of all these tissues. It forms lactic acid, and contributes largely to the . formation of fat. ' The wastelof anything essential to life, and all its healthy functions, must be sup plied by a INe substance. Food, therefore, is nutritious just in proportion as it contains the elementsi, prepsrly mixed, which go to sustain the ,body and supply its waste.. What is the best and cheapest food for this purpose ? This is a great question, and one respecting which much reliable inform ation has been wanting. Wheat, Indian,corn, rye, rice, and buck wheat are the principal grains used in our country for food. Wheat.holds the highest place in the market, and its finest-flour—that which is deprived of most bran—is the dear eat, and' the most adthired. This'-cherished flour—the 'actually the, least valuable for food. The fat , and salts of wheat ,reside, chiefly in the bran, and the flour .depaad of these, does not contain well mixed nutrient matter.' Dr. Dana: places Indian corn and rye above , wheat for. our food, and he snrprises us by giving oatmeal the highest place of all—.-it"contains the,,greatest ailiount:.'of al linien,its - starch ,is equal -to that of fine", Wheat flour, and its fat exceeds, hat of any. other _cereal grain. Buckwheat and rice are poor articles,:of food;. one- pound' 'of =-beans is equal to three and a half of rice 'or po tatoes:. Cabbage contains a great amount of albumen, but fat, sugar,. or salts, but it as excellent- for , mixing with other- sub stances, such as potatoes, which contain these.. ; . Oatmeal, cake, .bean and pea soup, baked beans, Indian meal pudding sweetened with molasses, are the vegetable food, which he esteems to be the' best and cheapest 'for= common : and general use.— Scientific American. Modern.Xechanics. Few persons are aware of the amount, of labor and risk. involved in the production of such castings as ,are.now :required for our mammoth stiamship`ebgines. The furnaces employed in foipidries will each hold but two or threetonsef melted metal at the utmost, and• the metal, in all eases,, must be poured into a mould, in a large continuous stream. For large casting, thick reservoirs of fire brick are • provided, and filled by slow degrees froM the,fainaces, the sides being ,of ,sufft cent thickness to retain the, heat. The pre paration of the mould requires many weeks labor. Some time since, an invention was chronicled, which consisted of an improved method of preparing wrought iron, so as to render it capable of being poured or cast into moulds, for , the production of Malleable castings, or articles possessing all the strength , andtqualitiea“lue,to wrought iron. The invention, thoughldesigned chiefly for the manufacture Pf railway wheels, is equal ly applicable-to the-pro i duction' .Of other ar ticles. Scrap or wrought iron is employed, or bars or plates cut into small pieces, and it must;beF meltecljuto •crucibles, such as are used for melting blister, steel. To a charge suitable in amount ; to, the crucible, one half of one per cent. of charcoal, by weight, one per cent. of , manganese, and one of sal am monia are added. The whole is covered from ,the atmosphere and Melted,in a tem perature Of ahout . fifteen hundred degrees Fahrenheit, which temperature is maintained for three hours. The metal is then poured into moulds. Other carbonaceous matter may be substituted for charcoal. The iron thus cast will; it is stated, become malleable, so as to be Capable of being treated under the harmer 'in a forge, and - framed into other shapes; and thus also part of the iron may be shaped in moulds, and part. com pleted by forging. THE IBLEGUNPIL-It is an interesting fact in science, 'that the 'Wheatstone tele graph, used in',England, was foreshadowed one hundred and twenty-seven years ago, in. Bailey's dictienity for 1730. Indeed, it was fully desaribed, just as the essential principles and machinery of Morse's had been discoiered and described in:this coun try, by Dr. Jackson and othenr' before Pro fessor Morse's invention; though to Morse and 'Wheatstone :belong the. great credit of giving practical effect to the ideas of scien tific investigation, and reducing them to ac tual sekvice. This remarkable proplrecy Wheatstone's telegraph" by. Bailey was as follows :•••••••" Some authors write that, by the help of the magnet or loadstone, persons may communicate their minds to a friend at a groat distance ; as, suppose one to be at London, and' the - other at Paris, if each of them have a,circular alphabet, like the dial plate of a clock, and a needle touched with one magnet, then, at the same time that the needle at London Vas Moved, that at Paris would' move in like manner, proVided each party had secret notes for dividing words, and the Observation was made at a set hour, either of the 'day or of 'the night; and when one' party' would , inform the other of any matter,. he is te move the - needle to those letters that 'will `form the words,' that will declare what le would have the other know, and {the other-needle Will move! in the same manner.' This may be done reciprocally.',' FRESH WATER FOR MARINE BOILERS. —Fresh Water is now obtained for feeding to marine steep boilers, by a newly in vented .process for condensing the steam after it has been employed in the cylinders of the engine. A pipe is from the cyl inders into the water outside of the ship at one side, and after being carried round the stem of the vessel, it is made to enter the vessel at the 'ether side, and open into a reservoir in the hold of the ship. A pipe opens from the - reservoir to the atmosphere, to allow any uncondensed steam to pass off. As the steam = from the cylinders passes through the water of the ocean outside of the ship; it becomes condensed, and the fresh water, thus produced, flows into the reservoir, from which it is pumped into the hinters. ' The condenser pipe is set on an in 'cline, to allow . the condensed water to flow into the reservoir. The plan - is said to operate • gricultural. Transplanting Cabbages. Often when cabbage plants are, removed from the beds where they were raised, to the garden square, a large portion die, and in a few days the gardener must reset the square with other• plants,' and this has oc curred so frequently that most persons have concluded that it is inevitable. Many will doubt when we tell thein that it is wholly ,their felt that,. every plant does not Yeetiroh is tile lint. IC t ri73lilta from two errors, which are easily voided. One is, that in drawing the, plan s, the roots are broken, and the other fro' , keeping out of ground too long, until it liecomes more or less dry. The gardener, inntead of having the land prepared fully before he takes up the plant, and going through . the 'whole process of drawing and planting in a few minutes, often draws the plants, then Jays off the • ground, and then drops every plant where it is to be put, before he begins to set the first one, and by the time he gets to the last, they are hopelessly injured. Sometimes we have seen such instances, the plants lying thus on the ground, eiposed to the heat of the sun for hours, before they are planted. If they grew afterwards it would be very wonderful. The plan . which we have pursued for many years, seems to us to be far more rea sonable, and certainly is much more success ful than that usually followed in this region. We prepare the land thoroughly first of all, and then lay it off before a plant is drawn from the bed. Some hours before the plants are drawn, water is applied freely to the beds;in which the plants are grofing, to soften the earth, so that the plants can be taken, without breaking the .roots. The plants are then carefully drawn, and taken at, once to the spots where they are to be planted. There, 'meantime, a mud puddle has been• made, by scraping away the soil, and pouring doWn water, and mixing soil there With until a tolerably thick mud has been forined, into which the root of each plant is immersed. A • considerable portion of mud will adhere to the. root, and then as quickly as possible they are. planted. ,The result of this mode of planting is, that a plant rarely ever fails to grow off at once and• flourish vigermasly ; and unless the' worms &insects attack the plants, we never have occasion to re-set cabbage , plants.— Southern Planter. • Coal Ashes. An appletree in the garden of a friend, hitherto ,unproductive, bore an abundant crop last year. His coal ashes were all sift ed, by mistake, around the base of this one tree. Other causes may have had some thing to do with it, but. we think the lime and potash' from two or three tons of coal ashes-furnished the aliment the tree lacked, and threw it into bearing. One of our neighbors, E,ts fcr along course of years, applied all his ashes to a part of his garden used as a potato patch. Through the worst of years of the rot, his potatoes yielded abundantly, and , were not affected with the disease. The variety was the Mer cer, which is more liable to rot than almost any other.. He attributed his success to the liberal use of coal ashes. The soil was' a heavy loam, and the ashes helpe,d it mechan ically—making it loose and pliable, as well as furniehed valuable fertilizers. —American Agriculturisi, WATEUING STRAWBERRrES.--june. is the time to give strawberries a plentiful supply of water, to be followed up three or fuer times a week, until the first fruit ripens. Soap suds 'and other liquid manures are excellent. Nothing, however, but pure water should be given after they com mence ripening. Luscious large strawberries through the whole season, (about five, weeks,) can only be had by. plentiful water ing in most seasons. There is usually a dry spell in June, that diminishes the crop. Try the watering on a single bed, and mark the difference. BlRDS.—Spare the birds in your orchards and gardens—they are, your best friends— they " pay their rent," not only in music and in the delight which they afford the eye and the heart, but also in the destruction of myriads of rapacious insects. As a further protection against predatory insects, hang up a number, of wide-mouthed bottles, half filled with molasses water, in your trees— you will catch a great number of them. YOUNG BUDDED AND GRAFTED TREES, will require early attention in rubbing, off the shoots that spring up from the `stocks; and young transpla,nted fruit trees for gar dens and orchards, should have useless Shoots taken off, and long ones pinched back, so as to form regular symmetrical heads. DISHWATER and soapsuds, instead of-be ing appropriated to the formation of an in teresting puddle at the kitchen door, should be poured at the roots of young fruit trees, raspberry and currant bushes, and will ac celerate their growth, and augment the size of the fruit. BLACK PEPPER, dusted on cucumber, melon and other vines, when the dew is on, is said to drive away the striped bug, and will do no harm to the plants. POWDERED charcoal placed• around rose bushes and Other shrubs, has the effect of adding greatly to the rickness of the flowers. RATES OF 0011JSZOTED WBl3Bl.

By this plan of treatment, the advantage of Nedicinca and Sthenotrophic Inhalations is added to that of appropri ate internal remedies, to renovate and sustain the strength of the general system, and these with such mechanical means as the case may indicate, joined to proper attention to exercise, diet, bathing, friction, Ac., dc., will not only afford more or leas relief in almost all cases, but will effect permanent cures in many carea, in which only partial and temporary relief could be obtained from any one of the, above measures singly. 'But although many otherwise fatal cases of consumption may be*thns relieved, there are still many which have passed beyond hope; and those. ho are in any way inclined to a disease so insidious, and so fearful ly fatal as consumption, cannot be too careful to give their cases timely attention:' The delay even of a few •weekeentay, in many eases, tarn the scale against the patient. . Where it is possible, we always prefer to Make' apex/meat examination, and thus ascertain the preclie condition of the Longa as we wish to undertake no case where we have not a chance of doing good; and •we wish no One to consult us who is not ready to hear , the truth. Those unable . to 'visit us' will, in writing, be careful to state their caves fully, answering, at length, our published list of questions, which will, be sent to any requesting it; and the necessary reMedies, as well for diseasea of the Lungs and Stomach', as for Female Diseases, may be sent by Express to almost any art of the United - States. -I Consultation 'Free. t .03 hours, ldto 4 o'clock daily. . • , CALVIN M. rITGA MA .-r' fl ' ='' ' ,"` '7l,'"'''-JNO:NVI44 Blitani111; f St. Clair Hotel, Pittsburgh, May 12th,1857.
