TOIL. X. Battle of the Thames. The Anniversary of this memorable day in tlie history of our late war with Great Britain, was cclebraled, on Saturday the 4th ins!, by the citizens oflndianapohs, and surrounding country, in a manner truly cheering to the patriotic feelings of those who are willing to give honor to the brave defenders of our country in the hour of danger. A procession was formed at 12 o'clock, in front of the Mansion House, under the command of Major John W. REDDrxc, (who was an officer under Col. Johnson at the Biltle of the Thames) as Marshal, and Major Joirx Jamison, as assistant Marshal, which proceeded to the Court House where a prayer was ofcercd to a Throne of Grace by the Rev. Jamison Hawkins, nnd an oration delivered by the Hon. xEokce L. Kinnaed. The procession again formed and proceeded to the "Union Inn," where a sumptuous dinner had been prepared by Mr. Elder. A more harmonious or friendly company, seldom, if ever, surrounded the festive board. After the cloth was removed, the following toasts were drank, accompanied by the most patriotic indications of feeling: Ind. Democrat. SECULAR TOASTS. 1.

Gentlemen I have the honor of acknowledging the receipt of your polite letter inviting my participation in a public celebration, to bo held at Indianapolis on the 4thinst. in honor cf the victory of the battle of the Thames. To join my fellow citizens of Indiana in the celebration of an occasion that can but fill every American bosom with exultation and pride; and in paying the highest possible tribute of respect, in the possession of a free people, to those distinguished ' individuals, who contributed so largely in that me- ' morable battle, as Gen. W. II. Harrison, and our highly distinguished friend Col. R. M. Johnson, woold give me the most unqualified pleasure; and it is a source of deep regret to mc that my health is such,as to deny me of this high gratification. An occasional celebration of such a victory, in honor of those who proved themselves the hero in battle, patriot in peace, who have not only fought the good fight, but have kept the faith, is but a just tribute of respect j &. ought to be hallowed by every sacred remembrance; and can never fail of having n hapy influence upon the minds and morals of the American people. And now that the land is filled with political false prophets; now that our happy country is at neace with all the nations of the earth; and a3 indi viduals, and as a nation in the full enjoyment of an extraordinary degree of prosperity, the voice of alarm is heard from the halls of national legislation, from whence encouragement and cheering hope ought to flow; now that "trigs-1 are worn, not tor personal conremcncc,noi to com- personal defects. but to conceal political deformity, such celebrations are the more especially called for, by every consideration of love of country, and admiration of such distinguiBhcd inditidualt.

POLICE COURT. "'77$ honor pricks me on.'" Tlie auditors of the Police Court were edified a few days since, by a treat of "high life below stairs," which transpired upon the arraignment of Edward Waylcn, an Englishman, charged with sending a challenge to fight a duel, to an Italian gentleman, who styles himself Count Alessandro Gharaldi, from Florence. The sending of the challenge was not denied by Way 1 en, who took offence at some attention which the Italian paid a young lady, with whom W. was an accepted lover. Way Icu give a very circumstantial account of the rise and progress oV his love for tho young lady, nnd tho cause of tho challenge, and spoke wiih diplomatic circumlocution & pompous verbosity, but we have only room for the peroration of his speech: "I was induced, nay compelled, in a manner, I would say, to send the note to him, because of his frequent intrusions on Capt. -'s family, where I have tho honor to board, and which he, taking advantage of the relaxed notions of etiquette prevalent in this countrv, took the liberty of continually annoying by his uninvited visits. In this family there was a young ladv, and I was thrown into her company and, of course, was pleased with her society walked her out took ! her to church Fll SilOrf. I n tiit !nr nil llinun j tions, the meaning of which vour honor knows so i well how to understand, and which were accented ion her part in tho most unequivocal manner ' In j tact, she plainly gave me to understand that he was absolutely disengaged that s'ie was nerfectlv open to any proposal.

Well, as I believe I remarked before, the young lady was excessively annoyed by him that evening, and gave him a hint, as plainly as she could do, without beini; guilty of a breach of politeness, which, in fact, she is incapable of committing, to leave the house in deed, 1 thougut she decidedly cut him. 1 was in hopes never to see him a :gain,buton Monday night I d his ruflianly attentions- 1 ause no man but a ruffian, I he returned, and renewed I call them ruffianly hecau WOllld intrude himself nn n l.idv tn whom lm i disaorenahlp a-nd .

Having vindicated, to his own satisfaction, his condu an(l motives, in chivalrously challenging tho Florentine Count, Waylcn proceeded to analyze and nullify tho technicalities of the complaint, which he dignified by the title of an "indictment" After referring to my Lord Bd affair with Mr. II. and other instructive duellos, he concluded by laying down soma original and amusing principles of law respecting the framing and phraseology of indictments, maintaining ''that if it contained a single wrong word, it must crumble to dust, and fall to the ground, and himself be fully acquitted;" but iiis brilliant display oflegal erudition, and citations of English laws, wcro unconrJeously interrupted by tho " Court. 1 have no manner of doubt, but that the letter is a challenge, and if you have any defence to offer, vou can avail yourself of it before a jury.

MM T caiieu oy ine ivraus, j;rs, Aimrou s lower, j ins, there is every reason to believe,- was tho ancient tower of Babel, tho earliest nnd mightiest specimen of huimm skill and human audacity. The travels of Mr. Rich and Sir R. K. Porter have rendered us more familiar with those huge ruins than could have been hoped for. The compressed view of that given by Ileeren, is very striking and animated. "This huge mass of building lies about six miles south-west of Ilullap. It has the appearance of an oblong hill, the base of which, according to Porter, is two thousand and eighty-two foet in circumference. Rich reckons it two thousand two hundred and eighty-six. It may easily be conceived, that it is scarcely possible to Ux, in a positive manner, the circumference of such a ruin. lis present height, reckoning to the bottom of the tower which crowns its summit, is two hundred feet; tho tower itself is thirty. Looking at it from the west, the entire m2S3 rises at once from the plain, in one stupendous, though irregular pyramid hill. It is composed of brick, kiln baked. Irom tho western side, two of its stories may bo distinctly seen; these are about six ty feet high, cloven in tho middle by deep ravines.) The tower-liKe looking block on tho summit, is a solid mass 2S feet wide, of the most beautiful masonry; to all appearances, it formed an angle of some square buildings, the ruins of which are yet to be seen on the eastern side. Tlie cement which connects tho bricks is so hard that it was impossi bly to chip the smallest piece, and fortius reason i none of the inscriptions can be copied, as they are 1 .il.i.nvn lri POfbitn r flirt hriOI'C If 13 alwavs on the lower surtaco ot tlie bricks. It is rent from the top nearly to the bottom; and at its foot lay several unsli3pen masses of brick work, still bearing traces of violent fire, which has given them a vitreficd appearance, whence it has been conjectured that it has been struck by lightning. The appearance of the hill, on the eastern side, evidently shows that this enormous mass has been reduced more than half. Only three stone3 out of the eight which it formerly contained, can now be discerned. The earth about the bottom of the hill is now clear, but is again surrounded with walls, which form an oblong square, enclosing numerous heaps

of rubbish, probably once tlie dwelling of the infori or deities, or of the priests and ofliecrs of the tern pie. The appearance of the tower of.Nimrod is! sublime, even in its ruins. Clouds play around its summit; its recesses ?re inhabited by lions, three being quitely basking upon its heights when Porter approached it; scarcely intimidated by the cries of the Arats, thev gradually and slowly descended into the plain. Thus tho words of the prophet to the plain. Thus tho words of the prophet ve been fulfilled 'Wild beasts of tho desert shall there; owls shall fill their houses; ostriches j ill dwell there, and satyrs shall dineo there. ckalls shall howl in their places, and wild hounds , have been fulfilled 'U ild beasts of tho desert sh all bo sh; Jackalls s in their pleasant places.

POPULAR ERRORS IX 3IEDICLXE. uy an lmiMiuuiat rnvsiciAX. M.mv neonlo nut rrrp-,f r.iili in tht v!mlp:nfiip. ncss of eating only one dish at dinner. They sup-! rfi-'l'- i t3 pose that tlie mixture of substance prevents easy digestion. They would not cat fish and 11 s!i, fowl and beef, animal food and vegetabh r. This ?ccms a plausible notion, but daily practice shows its ab-ur-ditv. W hat dinner sits easier on the stomach than a slice of roast or boiled mutton, nnd carrots or turnips, and the indispensable potato? What man ever felt tho worse for a cut of cod or turbut, followed by a beefsteak, or a slice of ror.st beef and pudding? In short, a variety of wholesome food does not seem incompatible at meals, if one do not eat too much here the error lies. It is a common practice with bathers, after having walked on a hot day to the sea side, to it down on tho cold damp rocks till they cool, before going into tho water. This is quite erroneous. Never go into tho water if over fatigued, or after profuse and long continued perspiration, but always prefer plunging in while warm, strong nnd vigorous, and even with the first drops of perspiration on your brow. Thero is no fear of sudden trmsitions from heat lo cold being fatal. Many nations run from the hot bath, and plunge naked into tho mow. What is to bo feared is sudden cold after exhaustion of tho body, and while the animal powers are not sufficient to produce a reaction or a recovery of the niiim.il heat. There is a favorile fancy of romWing infants and farther advanced children hardy nnd strong, by plun ging them into cold water. I Irs will certainly not prevent strong infants from growing stronger, but it will, and often does kill three children out of every five. Infants always thrive the best with moderate warmth and a milk warm bath. Tin same rule UOIMIt.'S IU UJO C1UWUU'' l Jill.

Many people do not eat salt with their food, and the fair sex have a notion that this substanco darkens the complexion. Salt seem3 essential fur the health of every human being, more especially in moist climates. Without salt tiro body becomes infested with intestinal worms. Tho case of a lady is mentioned in a medical Journal, who had a natural antipathy to salt and never i:scd it with her food; tho consequence was, she became dreadfully infested with these animals. A punishment once existed in Holland, by which criminals wcre denied the use of salt; the same consequence followed with these wretched beings. We rather think a prejudice exists with some of giving little or no salt to children. No practice can bo more cruel or absurd. A Glorious Consolation.
