No person can be well long whose feet are habitually cold ; while se- curing to them dryness and warmth is the certain means of removrng a variety of annoying aliments. The foot of some are kept more comfort- able in winte‘ if cotton is worn, while woolen suits others better.â€" The wise course, therefore, is for each one to observe for himself, and act accordingly. * Scrupulous cleanliness is essential to the healthful warmth of the feet; hcriceall, especially those who walk a great deal out of doors during the day in cold weather, should make it a point to dip both feet in cold wa- ter on rising every morning, and let them remain _ half-uncle deep for a minute at a time; then rub and wipe dry, dress, and move about briskly to warm them up. To such as cannotwell adopt this course from any, cause, the next best plan is to washthem in warm Water may night before going to bed. taking the precaution to dry them by the fire, most thoroughly before retiring.â€" This, besides keeping the feet clean, preserves a natural softness to the skin, and base tendency to [prevent and cure corns. Many a trouble- some tlnoat affection, and many an annoying headache, will be cured, if the feet are ' kept always clean, warm, softariddry. ' The moment the feet areobser- ved to be cold, the person should hold them to the fire, With the stockings off, until they feel com- fortablywarm. One of the several decided objections to a. furnace heated house, is tlie Want of aplace to warm the feet, the registers being wholer unsuited . for the, purpose.

A young medidal‘ student from Michigan, who had been attending- lectures in New York for some time and considering himself exceedingly good looking and fascinating, made an attack on the heart and fortune of a blooming young lady who was boarding in the same house with him. After a prolonged siege the lady The, same afternoon Oldb » . ‘Ciood Heaven! then your a widow.’ cxolaimcd the astonished student. ‘ Yes, my dear, and this is Amelia, my youngest. To-morrow, Augus- tus, James and Reuben will arrive from the country, and thenl shall have all my children together Once more.’ A ‘ The unhappy student replied not a word ; his feelings were too deep for utterance.-â€"-â€"The next day the ‘other darlings’ arrived. Reuben Was six years old, James nine, and Augustus a saucy boy of twelve. ’l‘hey'were delighted to hear that they had anew ‘ papa,‘ because they could live at home and have all the playthings they wanted -â€"-The ‘new papa,’ as soon as he could speak, l‘criirtrkcd that Augustus and James did nOt much resemble Reuben and Amelia.’ " ‘ Well no.’ said the happy mother, ‘ my first husband Was quite a differ- ent, style of man from my secondâ€"â€" complexion, temperament, color of hair, and eyesâ€"all difl'ereiit.’ This was too much. He had not only married a widow but he was her third husband, and the astonish- ed step-father of four children. ‘But her fortune,’ thought he, that will make amends.‘ lie spoke of fortune. ‘ These are my treasures,’ she said in the .Roman matron lone, pointing to her children. ’, The conceit was quite taken out of the Michigander, who, finding that he had made a complete goose of liimself.'at once retired to a farm in his native State, where he could have a chance to render his boys useful, and make them sweat for the deception practiced upon him by their mother. “ Mother wants to know if you wouldn’t be pleased , to lend her your preserving-Mule, ’cause as how she wants to preserve 7’ “ We would, with pleasure. hey, but the truth is, the last time we loaned it to, your mother she preserved it so efiiictually that we have never seen it since. “ Well, you needn’t besnrsy about your old preserve kittle, Guess it was full of holes. when we borrowed it: and mother wouldth atroubled you again, only we see’d you bringing home a new one-3‘ " ‘ .

The nose, instead of beinglong and fine,- as Virgil, Ari- stotle,,ahd several other naturalists recommend it, ought to be, in my opinion, thick, strung and as near the car as possible, if only in pro- portion to the size of the frame. Thickness of the nose and thickness of the Chest are often twins, and so are tl:iii, meagre, irregular noses and consumption. noses oft sniff the air into frames of Small capacities, and are joined to months that can crop but very small morsels at a time. These observa- tions I have found to be applicable to any of the kinds of cattle shown at Newcastle market, but besides the shapes of animals, the age and class must always have especial con- sideration. and be adapted according to food and situation; otherwise, the realisation of remuneratIVe pro- fits will be uncertain. in warm, sheltery valleys, abounding with rich, fine, succulent herbage, 1 do not think there is any class of ani-- mals whatever can equal the short- ho'rns for growing and making pay, and most assuredly not any for tur- nips in folds in winter. I would choose for grass in'spring heifers or steers quite filled up with lean flesh, and not less than two and a half or three years old ; and for turnips in winter, the same class of animals as regards freshness, but from three or four years old, or otherwise large stirksposscssing all their calf life ; such stirks are decidedly preferable to small slender two-year-olds for turnips,,and ddinfinitely better for the graz’ier on the same amount of food. For sevenâ€"sights oi the sum- mer pasture of England, however, the short-horns are found to be too good, and when judiciously alloyed with the Irish and Galloways, the produce has been found for several years to supersede the short-horns in their purity. The half Irish breed errcels the half Galloway on altitudes dry and arid, and the latter the for. mer in marshes low and humid. The Irish ox is the truest type of the old breed, the stripe along the back not having yet disappeared. The Gal- loways are the hardiest race known, and the one that appears quite in- vulnerable to long diseases ; and when well crossed with soft-backed short-horns are better for turnips than the halflrish; andnearly equal to the short-horn themselves ; but the half Irish, as a body, quite excel “‘6 half Galloway’s for grass, being Often of more suitable ages, and hein easier tattered.

From this inatteirtion to intonation in early years proceeds much difficulty in the voice for sing: ing ; and it is not unfrcquently the cause of diseases of the throat and chest. It is but a part of this cVil system that a most injurious habit prevails among, many of the young ladies ofthe present day, of speakin , in a subdued, muffled tone, or might be. called a semifalsetto,, in consequence of which , very few nae tural voices are heard. It must be understood, I speak more particulars ly of English ladies, as foreigners generally speak in their natural voices.
