MT. Brooks, who has just returned from Europe, says of the comparative health of Europeans and Americans

 But great cause why the Europeans appear ruddicr and healthier than we do. it strikes us, is, that they exercise more, and live more in the open air. Parks in England are every thing. In Italy and France. and Germany. the people live much out of doors. Every day their Broadways are not full, but their Batteries are. Their Cofee-Houses are out of doors. Families si: as muci, as possible in gardens, aud in public places.-s Their doors are crowded with the family circle. Their windows are all tenanted.3 The air they seek to enjoy. is one of tlle greatest reliefs of a warm climate. Not only every city. but every town has it's public park, adorned with trees, by the water side wherever it is possible, and every thing is done, which can be done, to make it com fortable, and refreshing, as we'll as fashion- able. The Europeans exercise much more than we dq. The sons of the first families in England are often seen in Switzerland, with their packs on their backss walking aInid tiIe mOuntainas at the raie of forty miles day. English girls, it is said, are almost the only girls who climb up the sides of the Alps, where is seen the mer de gt0ce, or struggle. anclc deep, up the ashes of Vesuvius. Englishmen, many of them brought up in the greatest care that Eng- fish luxury and wealth admit of, we have often seen outwalking Swiss diligences, and laughing at Italian velturi. Hunting, the regatta, cricket. NEc. are favori,e modes oi amusement aiD0iig young tnen of England, and hence they are healthy and hardy. - The management of the horse is also with them, another fayorite mode of exercise, not only on horseback, but in their gigs, and coaches--wiih their 'tigors,' and tl,e other paraphernalia Of servants about them.- The English girls, it is well Known, will walk five or six miles with ease. They are never afraid of the air. They do not reason as our girls do. that to Do pretty and interesting, they must be liyid, pale, and consumptiye--and in order to be so. ex- clude themselves from the open air, iron, walks and parks, but they reason naturally, that health is beauty, and that sicklncss is otherwise.

 Again. Children in the cities of Europe are brought up better than ours are. The nurses do not keep them in their cham bers, fondling over them all day. but aI,ey are sent out with them--in London. say upon Hyde Park, and tn Paris upon the Tuilleries or the Luxembourg. Tho children are made to exercise in the open air. There they stay ali the day, that the time from school or from meals will per- init. The consequence is, that they grow up with health, and with Tuddy physiOg- nomy. H3[ ?, se7ieea a"i#a | e.'

 Probably no ore class of people in the world are so healthy and yigorous us the English nobility and their sons.-sind their mode of education and training is tic un- doubted cause. Generally speaking, they are temperate people. Some die of the gaut, it is true, and some drink iOo much old Port, and old Sherry, but the crime of drunkenness, ,0f which. the English as ~eiIhs we, are s0 guilty, does not attach so much to the nobility as to the wealthy classes in England, who are distinct from the nobiI- ity. The sons of the mobility, when sent under the command of Wellington, to fight English battles, in Portugal, it was predici- ed. would wilt and die. under the fatigue and the climate, but these ypang msis, brought up as they were, stood the climate and the fatigue far better than Inc. common soldiers, whose habits were not SO gOod.-- They even slepl in the open air, and ppon tihe plUughed-up gro0nd. Indeed ye have oficn bcssg amused, upon the Contiuent, in witnessing the bodily vigof of tlle sons of the English gentry, and of' ths English mo- biiity. Very few young Americans could. in this respect, compete with ihcn,--and tue, TeasOn is, that lDanli0sss, and manly fs,es, arss not only fashionable. hnt neces- saTy,s and that . man is not considered . MAN, unless hs exercises his bodily facul. ties as | lnan. Rowing, riding and walk ing, are, therefore, fashionable. exercises.
