New-York merchant noticed, in the progress of years, that each successive book-keeper gradually lost his health, and finally, died of consumption, however vig orous and robust he was on entering his service. ' At length it occurred to him that the little rear-ruom, where the 'books were kept, opene.d into a back-yard, so surround ed by high wails, that no sunshine came into it from one year's end to another. An upper-room, well-lighted, was immediately prepared, and , his clerks had uniform good health ever after. ° A familiar case to general readers is de rived from medical works, where an entire English family became ill, and all reme dies seemed to- fail of their usual results, when accidentally a. window-glass Of the family-room was broken, in cold weather. it was not repaired, and forthwith there was a marked improvement in the health of the inmates. The physician at once traced the connexion, discontinued his medicines, and ordered that the window pane should not be replaced. • A French lady became ill. The most eminent physicians, of her time, were call e,d in, but failed to restore her. -At length Dupeytren, the Napoleon .of physic, was consulted. He noticed that she lived-in a dim room, into which the sun never shone; the house being situates' in one of the nar row streets,•or rather.lanes of Paris. He at once ordered more airy and cheerful apartments, and " all her complaints van ished." • The, lungs of ,a dog < become tuberculated' (consumptive) in a few weeks, if kept con fined in a dark cellar. The most common Plant grows spindly, pale, and scraggling, if no sunlight falls upon it. The greatest medical names in France, of the last cen tury,. regarded sunshine and pure air as equal agents in iestoring-and-maintaining; From these facts, which cannot be,dis puted, the most common mind should con clude that cellars, and rooms on the North ern side of buildings, or apartments into which the sun does: not immediately, shine, should never he occupied as:family-rooms or chambers or as • libraties •or studies." Suoh apartments are only fit for "stowage." or purposes which never require persons to remain, in, them. over a few minutes at a time. And every intelligent and humane parent will arrange that the fianily-room and the chambers shall be the 'most commo dious, lightest and brightest apartments in his dwelling.—Hall. There is little doubt that:the armies now in Washington and its vidinity, amount to . `the immense aggregate of near - 200,000 men on each side, or 400,000 combatants. Whenever a general battle shall occur, it will not only have no parallel on the West-, ern Contibent in the forces engaged, but. hardly one in-'the history even of Modern- Europe will vie with it. The great battles of Napoleon were generally fought: With" numbers far inferior to those now under the walls of Washington. For:instance, at Austerlitz, where Napoleon defeated the combined armies of Russia and Austria, he had but 80;000 troops ; the Allies had 100,- 000. —At Jena And Auerstadt, where he, broke the poWer of Prussia, his forces were not over 130,000 strong. At the great battle of Wagram, fought with the Aus trians on the banks of the Danube, in 1809,. he had but 150,000 men. At Borodino, under the walls of Moscow, he had but 1.20,000 to oppose the Russian& At WA terloo he did not have to exceed 80,000 troops. Not one of the battles in Italy or Spain even equalled this last number. The Only battle-field we• now recollect of, where-the &at biatants were as numerous as !..1-those around Washington, was at Leipsic, in 1813,where Napoleon Lad 175,009, and the Allies--Rissians, Austrians, Prussians, Swedes, and, Germans.--numbered 299,000. Nearly half. a million of men took part in , this tremendous battle, which was known !as the Combat of the Giants._ It. lasted three da3rsVaedinde.d in a ceittplete over throw of "Nafoleon, who was driven into Fiance, where 'a`-series of disasters com menced that did Aot end until Napoleon abdaated'his "midwi and was exiled to the Island of.

Alas.! is not, this the awaking which many will encounter who build for eternity on a Elie foundation, whb enter not in by the door, who delude themselves with a name to live, while they are dead.
