hath 30 days. The Appetite for Rum-Dr. Mussey relates the following anecdote in illustra tion of the strong appetite which is created by a long and habitual use of ardent spirits: "A few town in Massachusetts. years ago, a tippler was put into an alms-house in a populous Within a few days he had devised various expedients to procure rum, but failed. At length, however, he hit upon one which proved successful. He went into the wood-yard of the establishment, placed his hand upon a block, and with an axe in the other, struck it off at a single blow.With the stump raised and streaming, he ran into the house, crying, Get some rum, get some run-my hand is off! In the confusion of the moment, a bowl of rum was brought, into which he plunged the bleeding member; then, raising the bowl to his mouth, drank freely, and exclaimed, Now I am satisfied." "

Ardent Spirits are not necessary to support the Laborer in hot Weather.-" The experiment," says Dr. Mussey, "has been made a thousand times, and the result is well known, viz. that more labor can be accomplished in a month, or a year, under the influence of simple nourishing food and unstimulating drink, than through the aid of ardent spirits. I visited,' says a gentleman, four or five years since, in New-Jersey, an iron foundry belonging to Mr. Wood, of Philadelphia; I think there were thirty or forty men employed in the establishment, and all they drank was pure spring water. I saw them often, while lading out the hot metal and sweating at every pore, take a mug, run to the spring, and drink very freely of the water. I inquired if they did not feel any ill effects

"A vessel belonging to my neighbor,' says a merchant in Massachusetts, went from this state to South Americe, and thence to India; no spirit was allowed to the crew during the whole voyage; they all arrived home in good health. One of my own captains kept grog from his men the whole of an India voyage: they all came home in fine health.--For my crews, in hot climates, I direct spruce-beer, made with the oil or essence of spruce, and molasses and

I called for assistance. A half-naked fellow came down, and after dragging a canoe round from the river, with some trouble ferried me over. I followed him to his habitation. His cabin was of the meanest kind, consisting of a single apart. ment, constructed of logs, which contained a tamily of seven or eight souls, and every thing seemed to denote extreme poverty. After drinking a bowl of milk, which I merely called for by way of excuse for paying him a little more for his trouble, I asked to know his charge for ferrying me over the water; to which he good-humoredly replied, that he "never took money for helping a traveller on his way."
