CHINESE PRECEPTS OF HEALTH. These wise and excellent maxims, are extract

cd from Chane-sen. ('meaninc the Art of

Health) a Chinese book, written about seven years ago, by Ping-lo, a celebrated Chinese Physician. Let hunger regulate your food, and never eat too much at once. Excessive eating tires the stomach, and produces many diseases. Rise early and take some food as soon as you are out of bed, a cracker, a cake, a little rice

or sugar.

Take an early breakfast, and do not go out

of doors fasting, particularly when the air is hot

or foul.

Let your breakfast be moderate, do not

overload your stomach with meats in the mor-

w ning.

Eatslowlv and chew your meat very well. To

mi mJ eat in a hurry is to eat like a wolf or a dog.

Do seldom gratify your appetite to its full ex

tent, else you may overload your stomach and im

pair its tunctions by degrees.

Sup betimes and sparingly. Three meals in

he day are enough; but in the middle of the sum

mer four are allowable.

Close your meals with some water or tea, o wash your mouth and teeth, and to settle your

stomach.

Do not drink much wine; in excess it pro

duces fermentations and obstructions or inflames

he blood. Avoid intense and constant application of the

mind, because it impairs all our functions.

Avoid all immoderate use of sensual pleasures,

which enervate the body.

Whatever puzzles and tires the mind, impairs

the body; avoid, therefore, deep researches beyond your capacity.

Whenever your mind feels heavy and dull, take

a walk or ramble in a garden.

Avoid spitting and hawking, it is tiresome and

injurious to health.

Swallow your saliva, it is required to moisten your throat, and help the functions of the stomach.

Wash your mouth and clean your teeth before

going to bed. Rub, besides, the soles of your

feet with your hands; it makes you sleep well and

easy.

Do not busy yourself with any thing striking

before going to bed, else your sleep will be broken

bv bad dreams.

On arising stretch your limbs, and rub well your

breast with your hands.

In summer we evaporate in water and sweat,

and must therefore drink more water and fluids.

Do not pamper and spoil your children with ex

cessive food, caresses or indulgence, if you value

their health and welfare.

Practice virtue, moderation and equity in every

station and on all occasions. This will make your

mind easy and content.

Make your virtue and prudence beneficial to others besides yourself, that happiness may sur

round you. Keep your heart in peace and your face will ever be bright and joyful. Avoid anger, sorrow, grief, envy, hatred, and disputes, which spoil the peace of mind. Anger and grief cause disorders of the blood, liver, lungs and stomach, ending in indigestion, ob

structions and inflamations.

Think how many are worse than yourself and be

comforted. Think of the sailors, soldiers, indigent

bedridden, prisoners ; and other unfortunates, when

ever you dream yourself unhappy.

Set bounds to your desires, else you will always

be wretched, or live in anxiety and trouble.

If you rise in life, think of what you have instead

of what you have not. If you fall, say what is left

is sufficient, and make it so. When you enjoy a good state of health, know the value of it and study to preserve it. Attend to the state of your mind with as much care as the body; both influence each other. Feed your mind with knowledge and wisdom; they areas needful to it as good food to the body. The greatest banes of health are intemperance and sensuality; avoid them by all means.

ing accepted and paid the Bill, and this amount i3 now retained out of the moneys duo by the Bank to the Government for dividends on its stock. The Bank takes law right into its own hands; it appeals to no tribunal, it listens to no arbiter. It preferred a claim, the justice of which is denied by Government. The Bank says, "we will decide the point ourselves; Congressthe Supreme Court,

shall not interfere we decree that we are right,

and that you are wrong: the thing is settled you

have trusted the money into our nanus, ana we win keep it." Was there ever such an audacious violation of justice such a glaring breach of trust such desperate disregard of public opinion1. Will

any candid man among the friends of the Bank jus

tify this act?

If this claim for damage is paid, it must be paid

not by the Government, but it must come out of the funds arising under the Treaty: it must bo paid

by the claimants : it must come out of the pockets of

the widows and orphans who represent the owners ol

property seized and captured by the orders of the French Government. The Government has acted throughout as the agents of the claimants: and Mr. Biddle, and the Bink Whigs, will fail of their mark, when they attempt to rob the Treasury, and

throw the responsibility upon the administration of

the Old Hero. The Bank has to settle this account

with some 10,000 claimants under the treaty. The opposition orators in the Senate, with Mr.

Spraguo at their head, when it was their wish to

detract from the merit of the Administration, undertook to show that the indemnity would not exceed thirty or forty cents on the dollar; and yet the attempt is now made, and will no doubt be sanctioned by these same gentlemen, to take from the poor claimants the sum of $153,842 77, to put into

the pocket of the nabobs of the land, and to give to Mr. Biddle adequate funds to carry on the fall elections. If the people will permit this, we have

not heretofore formed a just estimate of their firmness, intelligence, and virtue.

From the Neo) York Times. The French Bill. The history of the transaction is simply this: The Treaty was concluded with France, by which American citizens were entitled to receive from the French Government the sum of $5,000,000, for spoliations committed on Americnn commerce. Most of the original parties

who suffered by these acts have passed away, &, are now represented by windows and orphans, whose interests the Administration of General Jackson undertook to protect. The first instalment of this indemnity under the treaty fell due in the winter of 1832-33; and on the last day of the session of the Congress of that year, the principal and leading agents of the claimants under the Treaty, drew a section to add to an appropriation bill, with the advice and concurrence of Mr. Webster, authorizing the Secretary of the Treasury to lend the proceeds of that first instalment upon certain stocks, to the end that the claimants might have the benefit of the interest on the money. This section was passed into a law. It became then important to the claimants to get the funds home as soon as possible, or in some way to realize it, and the Sec

retary of the Treasury, acting as the agent for the

claimants, and at their sussrestion, drew a Bill of

Exchange on the French Government, and to ena

ble him to comply with the law, passed at the re

quest ot ttie claimants, he made arrangements with

ine Dink, 10 advance the money upon it, when he should be ready to loan it under that law. The provision of the law, in relation to the stocks on

wmcn me money was to be loaned, did not suit the views of some of the claimants in the city, and the

oecreiary was requested not to make the loan.

For this, or some other reason, the money was ne-

ver arawn irom tne cans ot the United States and

tney sustained no sort ot injury by reason of hav

ing forwarded the bill to Europe for collection but it set up on the return of that bill unpaid a claim of the enormous sum of $158 ,842 77 for damages, which they alleged that the Bank sustained in

A Ruse de Guerre. Strategie as well as force

is among all nations considered justifiable in war, but whether the conduct which is embraced in the anecdote which we are about to relate, should be considered strictly in accordance wilh the moral

principles which ought to regulate the actions ot

men, we leave to casuists to decide.

During the early part of the last war with Great

Britain, a small brig mounting about ten sixes, with a crew of forty or fifty men, sailed from New Eng

land as a Letter-of-Marque, with permission to

sail as a privateer for a certain length of time, and

capture prizes from the enemy. While cruising in

the latitude of the homeward bound Yest Indiamen the brig one morning fell in with a large ship, to which she gave chase, but the Captain an "old seadog," on reconnoitering through his spy-glass,

was satisfied that she mounted too many guns to contend with, with any prospect of success, and hauled off, much to the dissatisfiction of the crew, who attributed his conduct to want of spirit and courage. In fact they were not backward in exhibiting their feelings, and the word coward was more

than once bandied about the ship in the hearing of the Captain. A few days afterwords the brig fell in with another vessel. Every stitch of canvass was spread, and just at night, the chase was made out to he a i large West Indiaman, apparently well armed and manned, and looking like an t'ugly customer." "Now," said the Yankee Captain to his crew, "I wish you to listen, men, to what I am going to say. I heard some of you muttering something, not long since, about cowards, and to oblige you, I will give you an opportunity of testing the courage of every man on board. You see that ship ahead.

She is pierced for twenty-four guns, and probably carries sixteen at least of heavy metal. That ship shall be my prize before two hours. So look out for squalls. If some of you don't lose the number of your mess I'm mistaken. But mind ye, no backing out. Cowards ha I" The crew looked rather blank at this pithy harangue, hut dared not remonstrate. They were caught in their own toils and resolved to fight it out like men. Night came on but they still kept sight of the

Englishman. It was about half past eight in the evening when they ranged up within hail, on the weather quarter of their more bulky antagonist, who had every man at quarters evidently prepared for a brush, and with his high bulwarks and numerous deck lanthorns, presented rather a formidable appearance. The captain of the brig seized his speaking trumpet, and in a peremptory manner hailed the stranger. "Ship ahoy!" "Hallo 1" "Heave too and I'll send my boat on board."

"What brig is that, pray?" "The United States Brig, Argus'." "Aye, aye, sir!" John Bull thought it would be madness to contend with the U. S. Brig Argus, which was well known to be a crack sloop of war of twenty guns, and accordingly backed his maintopsail, without further parley. The Yankees were thunderstruck

at their captain's impudence. But the quarter boat was lowered and officered and mannej) imme-j diately, in true man-of-war style.

I he American orhcer ascended the gang-way of

the English ship, wilh a "swap" on his shoulder.

4hat ship is this?" said he, in an authoritative

tone, as soon as he reached the deck.

"The English shio Carnavon Castle from Bar-

badoes, bound to Bristol," returned the Englishman submissively.

" 1 hen sir, you will please step into the boat with

your papers, and return with me on board the Ar-

s." "Mr. Simpson " said he to the captain's

clerk, who filled the post of middy on this occasion,

"1 leave you with the men in charge of the ship!

you will proceed to put the pnsoneis in irons, ready to be transferred to the Augus."

V hen the British Captain arrived along-side the Argus, he was astonished at her diminutive size; when begot on board he saw at once that he had been duped : but it was then too late to remedy the evil. "Sir," said he to the yankee captain, more in anger than in sorrow, "you told me this vessel was the United States bri Argus." "And I told you the truth, sir. Her name is the Argus, and she belongs to the United States!"

Hkaxtii. A writer la the Unite.!' Stales Gazette says 'Many persons are so situated that they are obliged to stow ten or twelve children and domestics in one small sleeping chamber, after which the doors and windows aro closed. In all such case9 the atmosphere of the roora becomes completely diseased before morning. Tho windows of every sleeping chamber should be so made, ' as that the upper sash should lower, when all sleep

ing in the room, would receive tho benefit ot the air, without its blowing immediately upon them. Not only all sleeping-rooms, but every room, closet, pantry, larder and cellar in every house, should be sprinkled, at least once every week, during the warm weather, with diluted Chloride of Lime, say one part chlorine, to eight or ten parts water; this being done, tho writer would guarantee that such a house would not be visited with any epidemic during the whole season, not even tho plague

or small-pox. How to sleep Comfortably Man is more the child of habit than any other creature, and the study of it is curious and interesting. 1 knew a man, Adam Neil, who went to Edinburgh as an apprentice to an apothecary, and his circumstances compelling him to take the cheapest lodgings he could get, he took a room above a smith's which no other person would take at two shillings a week, but what with the continual pelting of the smithy, and

the roar of the bellows and fire, poor Ne il could get no sleep, nor, when his landlady or any other bodv entered the room, hear a word they said; $c

mf V 1 in consequence, he got a habit of speaking so loud, that even in the shopjiis voice'was heard through all the street. Every night and morning poor Neil cursed that smith), and his greatest ambition on earth was to be enabled to change his lodgings. He got at length a superior situation, and the first thing he did was to change his lodgings, and take two elegant rooms in Richmond place, after having occupied his old room for more than eleven years. But the eternal clink of tho smithy was wanting, and not one wink could Adam Neil sleep in his new lodgings. For seven nights ho declared in my hearing, that he did not sleep seven minutes. He said he sometimes prayed and sometimes

swore unto himself; but sleep had utterly departed from his eyes; so that on the eighth day he was obliged to go and beg his old lodgings back again,

From the Florance (Ala.) Gaz. Modification of the Chickasaw Treaty. We are informed from a highly respectable source, that the Chiefs of the Chickasaw Nation, who went on to Washington with a view to obtain some important alterations in the late Treaty with the United States, have succeeded to the extent of their wishes. Colonel Reynolds has recently returned to the Agency, and brought with him a copy of the

new Treaty. We are indebted to a gentleman who heard the Trealy read, for our information on the

subject. Ry the agreement made at Washington,

the Indians are permitted to hold their reservations

provements of ihe occupant, and is to be located

by the Agent, Col. Reynolds, assisted by tho Re

gister and Receiver of the Land Ollicc at 1 ointlock. The provisions of the first treaty in regird to the distribution of the reserved lands among the

Indians, have also been changed in some respects.

Reservations are restricted to persons who arrived

at the age of 21, instead ofbeing granted toall of

17 years old. Orphans are ?dso entitled to half a

section of land. Indians residing upon land unlit

for cultivation, are permitted to take a floating

claim upon other lands not occupied. These reservations will take up about two thousand sec-

The Flection. The election has terminated somewhat to our disijipointmcnt. JVoah Noble ii doubtless re-elected Governor, and David Wallace Lieutenant Governor. Much as we dejirccate this issue, we must submit to the fiat of tho sovereign people, whose right it ia to elect whom they please. The friends of Andrew Jacksou have with their accustomed magnanimity, elected a Governor and Lieutenant Governor, who will not deny that they owe their election to citizens whose political sentiments arc oppoito to theirs. This is more than i customary with the daymen, and we freely admit that the Democrat has been disappointed, and we fear that our friends will have cause before all is ended in relation to this election, to regret this evidence of their confidence, in the men elected. The election of men of di tie rent politics in many of the counties which gave majorities for Noble, shows that the 'question" was not made, and that the line wus not drawn. In Marion, Rrady and Noble each received more than yoo majority, and Rrady and Noble arc upon dilfercnt bides of the pre sidential question. In Shelby and Decatur the same result is shown, Fowler and Shank being Jackson men and Noble getting heavy majorities in both of these counties. All that we have to tay, this week, is we are beaten in the election for Governor and we are sorry for it; but can't help it. The majority for Noble will probably ho from tl to 10,000 vote.
