 shock. Creep about like stiffened flies, and of surety he will numb you-and you will shiver through the ten or twelve weeks of cold weather, like poor irrational beings who 1on't know how to keep themselves warm.- But that is not the method for reasoning be- lngS. Wide awake! is the motto.

 It IS very easy to be uncomfortable all Wlnter-a vast deal more easy than pleasant. 1t IS not very wise, however, for creatures who claim to be rational. It is a libel on Humanity to acknowledge inability to set a cold snap at defiance. So step quick ladies Don't 'tmew yourselves up over coal grates as if you had vegetable faces which would wilt at the first kiss of the writer king. Don't nautter and shiver, anI let your teeth chatter. Dont shut yor..selves up as if you had ta- Aen V"w of seclusion-but seek the open ar and keep yourselves warm in it. Nolh- ing is easier. It is only to resolve-it is ea- sier than plunging into cold bath-because that wont get warm while you are in it-but the weather will.

 Just fancy our hardy woodmen now. The weather is not yet cold enough for them to enjoy themselves. They arc waiting for winter to come in earnest and when 1t does, in earnest will they improve it. The for ests, which enjoy an impunity, while the earth may be cultivated, warm the back woodsmen without fire, in the winter. Miles and miles of clearing will be ready for the next Spring to shine upon, which, when the last Spring opened, were in the same dense shade in which they had stood, for Q period anterior to which the oldest inhabit- ant has no record. How would it fare with the log. cabin men, if they feared little frost?

 Walk. Take morning walks-and walk HvaSN fP0f weather warns them-and human beings are the only ones who would like to move in winter as they did in summer, when they feared to over-heat themselves. The glow of exercise is much more healthy-pleasant, cheerful, than the sleepy gas of coal. It is the best cosmetic, the best relish for food, the best provocative of thought, the best earnest of long life. It ensures victory over acci- dental circumstances, and injures the sale of Cough Lozenges, liquorice, rhubarb, and Hoarhound Candy. Indeed, it is the only sure and effectual substitute for those prepa- rations. The wheezing, coughing invalid, never gets his infirmity by too much expo- sure, but by too little. By making an at- going out of it except when compelled-by purposely enervating the system, and then exposing it to short but severe attacks-it is thus that coughs, colds, and consumptions are warranted. Who ever heard of polar bear with whooping cough?

 live look at the iron old men, who at SO are as good as new, we do not find them afraid of cold weather. John Quincy Ad- ams could thread needle in the open air, in December, before breakfast. What lady in Gotham could do such a feat? His nerves are braced, his frame firm, his faculties en- tire, his health unimpaired, his energies un- shaken, and his resolution as steady, as when he rejoiced in youth, forty years ago. Yet he has enjoyed no special dispensa- tion to preserve to him this high health. He might have coddled himself to death as eff. fectually as any delicate and interesting young woman in the world. He might have been superannuated years ago; and instead of astonishing country by his sudden starts in the House of Representatives, he might now be nursing his second childhood, and in mere oblivion" at his home in Massachu- sets.

 Women are accused by heartless old stocks of bachelors, of "gadding." Faith, we like to see it. Let them gad-it they will ,only gad now, and for the three months coming. There is nothing in the sentence of Eve, that we ever heard of, that condemns the women to stay in the house all the days of their lives. We like to see the streets lively with them. Broadway were no bet ter than cow path, but for its promenaders. Shall winter drive them out! Forbid it, thick.soled shoes! Forbid it, muffs and boas! Dress for the season, and turn out, ladies'. Don't stay in the house all day, to be taken out at night to heated rooms-there ,enervated in warm bath of breathed air thence to be plunged into the cold again, to come home shivering to bed with head ache. Such were more than a Russian could bear. Accustom yourselves to expo- sure during the day. Habituate yourselves to exercise in the open air. Educate your children in the same true school of health and when you have made these practices fashionable, American women will cease to be remarked as the beautiful but delicate beings they arc at present.

 Sam Sick and Matrimony-S pays a visit to that "pure hearted old critter," the minister of Slickville. by whom he is advis- ed to be "thinkin' of settlin' in the world," i. c. to get married.

 "Noihin' james man like woman. I guess so, says !. Yes, my son, said he, get married, and marry soon it's time you were -thinkin' on it now in airnest. We'll, feel most plagily skeered, minister, says I, to try. for if once you get into the wrong box, and the door is locked on you, there is no escape as see; and besides, women are so ever. lastin' full of tricks, and so cunnin' in hiden 'em aforehand, that it's no easy matter to tell whetherlhe bait has hook in it or not and if you go a.playin' round it and a.nibblin at it. why a sudden jerk given by skilful hand may whip it into your gills afore you know where you be, and your flint is fixed .as sure as there arc snakes in Varginy.-| You may tug, and pull, and haul back till
