Sunday Sickness. I suspect that there is twice as much sicknessin the Uni'ed Srates on the Sabbath, as on any other day of the week; and I am quite sure there is about as much medicine taken on that day, as on all the rest.? These alarming facts, if they are facts, deserve the immediate and eainest investigu. tion of the whole medical faculty. It can not be owing to climate, to~miasrna, or iu any sud-ien changes of temperature, be^ cause these nro liable to aSeet the health just as much, one day as another. Much less can we ascribe it to any special divine visitation, to disable people from attending public worship on the Sabbath, when they aro able to be out and attending to'their secular busmess from Monday morning till Saturday night. This would be a re. flection npon the groat Lord of the Sabbath, . as if he had given men one day in seven for religous duties and privileges, and then deprived them of its advantages, by shutting hem up to be bled and take emetics. As the sickness of which I am speaking, prevails all over the country, so it affects all classes, though not in the same degree. The industrious hard laboring classes, are more apt to be down on the Sabbath, than the rich and fashionable. The latter can. sot, or will not afford it, as many of them want the day for riding sailing and visiting their friends^ The laboring people in the cities, are not liable to these, periodical at. tacks as -in the country; -and the reasdn aoems to be the same; they want the Sah, bath for relaxation, with which the operation of active medicine would seriousjy interfere. It is moreover a circumstance worth noticing, that professors of religion, as a class, are less liable to Sunday sickhess than any other class; I am not-aware that they have hotter constitutions; but to* the ? ??? tfinn in thff house n{ God mOSl p'lll aiu uwvu >u v.-- ...r.- ,f. _ ^ on thi. Lord's day, if they are able to be | abroad, attending to their business on other days. Nevertheless, there .a?e- quite too many anomalous cases even in the churclr. I think I have known soma pbrsona of considerable pretensr n"s to piety, who bv. living in the midst of the Sunday fever contagion, or from some other cause, have complained of being poorly, and excused themselves from attending public^ worship, when the prospect of some little wdtkflycgain would have worked like a charm, to throw off the symptoms, on any other day of the week. Although hanking no pretensions Jo the healing dirt myself,- and therefore' tmable to afford the Faculty much, if any aid', in theft diagnostic investigations, it/nifty be expected of me, that 1 should* bet Irttje more particular in showing - how the sickness now under consideration, generally-corner onj and how it is most .commonly\jelie.v5d; I' tay relieved not aired, for it is exceedingly apt to break out again in a 'few ^Sabbaths after it seems to be entirely expejlod-- from the system. Tfies^ then - ftp? the "usual symptoms. A J it rip more-work is* under-s. taken on the ferm or fn the shop thau can conveniently be performed. As a matter of course extra efforts are necessary,. Nature, by the middle of the week, begin* to r.imnlain. that she-is rifet fairly doaK by, and to coll for relaxation* If her yqfae is not heeded, she raises it louder. - The man., confesses that he does not feel \VeMk /and that he needs rest and medicine. . But* he cannot afford -lb jje by on a* week day.-rThe Sabbath is approaching, and then he will be at leisure and will attend to himself So he drags through the Sveek as best he can; and at the close of it, or on Sabbath morning, sends .off for.a good portion of Glauber, of Epsom* or Ip'pecaq. more' generally, perhaps especially ip-baying and harvest, the medicine is sent fbr^br on Sab* bath morning, ' as sickness, every body knows, must be attended to; and it gives the neighbors a chance to inquire, What's the matter/ How long has your fathen been unwell/ Has he sent for. t!\s doctor, &c.^' The Sunday invalid in these cases, gets op late. You would hardly know him to I be the same man whom you saw day before I in the field. Hecompldius of weakness in tha joints, nausea, dizziness and (he like; calk for his tumbler of suits, and ciustof bread; looks at the portion most ruefully but it is of no use to stand dreading it. So he shuts his eyes and hardens his heart, and, drinks it off at a swallow. Or if it is an emetic, he prepares foe it right manfully. He could not get time tg take it any sooner, and it will not, he thinks, do to put it off any longer, especially as hcN must resume his labors again on Monday morning." Musi resume them, not because he is too poor to spare a day for 4,doctorirrg" but because he can save it by being sick on the Sabbath. And when others are in the house of God, and he is on his bed, with his bosom heaving like that of a fresh water sailor, he blesses himself that he does not stay away from church without .the least reason in the world; and perchance wonders that any who are well, can saunter about the fields, when they ought,to "be in the house of prayer. If a man is sick on the Sabbath, ho is sick, and that is enough, however he came so. This is his logic.? Sometimes lire Sunday sickness comes on suddenly, in the morning u litile cloud ari. s. It may rain. And what if it should.7 Woukl the prospect of getting a liitle wet, prevent the individual from going out on any other day/ Is he afraid of lightning! O uo unless it be Sabbalk day lightning.? But now, all at once, he finds out, that he is not verv well. He is afraid he shnll take cold and so he stops at home. In your opioion the excuse is not valid, and you try to convince him of it; but there is something which he calls conscience, that he says justifies him. **Mercyhe argues, "is better than sacrifice," and every one is bound to take care of his health. Now Messrs. Editors, can you tell me what is the best way of treating these seventh day sicknesses and of preventing thern from spreading? Ifyoucon, I hope you will in. form the public at once. It is really a very serious matter. Thousands are suffering from them who ought to be cured, if possible. If these diseases are permitted to run on. they will become chronic, and of course more and more obstinate. It may be more desirable to die on the Lord's day, than any other; I think it is, for those who are prepared; but to be kept away from the sanctuary, by any of the Sunday intermittents, is a very different affair. Certainly, it is no way to prepare lor that "rest, which remaineth for the people of God." One thing moro-and I have done.? These hebdominal visitation are extremely troublesome to a conscientous physician,and afford others more plausablo excuses than they can be safely trusted with, for absenting themselves from public worship. In some places, the doctor is sure of having somethi g to do on the Sabbath, however, it may boon other days. Just as he is getting ready to go with his family to church, somebody calls with his arm in a sling, or with an invalid wife, or child and detains him. Or a messenger rides foaming up fronr the outskirts, or a neigboring town and nothing will do but he must go and vis. it M. such a one. How long has he been sick?" "He has been drooping all the week." Why did not you send before?" "We hoped he would get along without doctoring." "Why then could you not wait one day longer?" "VVe are afraid he will get worse." ? - - " * -I And so (he Sabbath is DroKen up, unless the physician Jias the independence which is sometimes the case, either to decline en. tirely, or to put off the visit till after the pub. li? services. V ' "Not-, tin frequently it- is even worse than this. .It is a matter %f calculation, on the part of. Joo many, to send for the physician on the Sabbath in preference to any other .day, ..when theic friends have long buen had health, and there is no more urgency than there was for days or weeks before. It is done to save time. On week dqystbdy are otherwise engaged, and all they can save in this way, is counted nssc ; mnch.clear gain. Thus ard thousands, oi 1 physicians virtually deprived of their Sab. baths, by thesdtime and money saving, but soul destroying calcul uions. And peoplt expect tlie blessing of God Just as much upon the prescriptions of the doctor or to get well Vitliout thqt blessing just as soon "as rCtbey Vkepi his Sabbaths and reverenced Ids-sanctuary." Rut they have no right to insist upon the attendance of physicians, tc the neglect of these institutions, in enses which might be just as well attended to a lit. tie earlier, or a little later. - -1 **.-. - Exchange Paper. r" ?: y.

A few years since, a fctfo from there, giou of the Kennebec, with an interesting wife, two lovely daughters and n promising son, moved 'doWn east,* purchased -a piece of wild land, selected a spot, erected a log -Cabin, with a stone chimney and a wooden mqinileLtree, and was soon, in a goo I way ~lo' live, surrounded by every thing peccssa"rv fb ftiukphim comfortable and happy*? He hhd lived there several years, whei the first movements were made in the ten. -Durance cause, llo would have folki jtnqw that a Kennebcket could take cart of himself? He wopld sign no pledge.? Not long after, he was invited wjth other.* to the raising of a barn. At regular, otic rather short intervals, the pail of toddy was passed round, and he sipped wi h the rest, til at length he discerned Ihpt -he had taken one eip too much. He was a little ovei jhe bay-jiandgn returning homo lie could not navigate quite so well* as he wanted to. But though his potations had made $ad worfc wim nis pnysicin system, >"< his mind was not so oflccled" but that lit perfectly understood his situation, nor his qiQfQl sensibilities-^o perverted but that 1v felt heartily ashamed of himself. lis reflectiorts-were tiot of- Jhe-most njrreeabh characters he approached his.* dwelling,nor wereihey essentially improved as he-entered and noticed the saddened., countenances ol his wifetand daughters, whose gushifig tears soon told him how bitterly painful to tin soul it wns to have a husband and a farthci come home drunk. . He sat down and mu sed a while in-silence. At length he rousec himself from hisslupor, and with a determin ed tone demanded?* Where's my inch augur/' So strange a question in th<'se circumstaoces, only added to the sorrow ol the afflicted family, and they thought it best tblet it pass in silence. The question was soon repeated in a still more de'enniued [one^-*VVhoro is my inch augor ?' 'What in the world do you Want of vuur inch au ^ ^ ? - ? gur?' inquired his wife* mildly. 4. want it,' was the reply. The inch auger was pro. duced. He took it and commeced boring with all the energy he was capable, in his wooden mantle, tree. The work was soon completed, and the chips were seen dropping from the further sido ir.lo the fire.? There, wife,?said he, as ho drew out ftis auger'?I'll drink no more rum till that Me grows up. There was his pledge?and having it before his eyos as be rose in the morning and every time he entered in his dwelling through the day, it doubtless had a much stronger influence upon him, than if it hid been lock ed up in the desk of the Secretary of the temperance society, and to his beloved family, the inch auger hole in the wooden manile-tree was most undoubtedly the most valuable chimney ornament that could possibly have been devised.?Ii. I. Temp. Star. From the Maine Farmer. > physic a j degeneracy?bed rooms and bed. Mr. Holmes:?Sir, I shall not attempt to enumerate all the causes of the feeble constituiions of the present generation com. pared with those of the past?but I wish to advert briefly to a few practices winch, in my opinion are among the most prominent of those causes, And I will mention first the practice of sleeping in small, close rooms, not properly ventilated, or more commonly not ventilated at all. Should our tight-bedrooms, say 8 feet by 10, "plastered and papered," with "listed doors and windows," be exchanged for the large airy rooms o? our forefathers, into which the pure air of heaven was freely if not at all times willingly admitted?and from which ! the impure air could always 'find egress through a chimney 3 feet by 6 "In the throat," many a sickly, yellow countenauce would again bloom with the roses of health. I would not be understood, however, as re? commending that particular mode of ventilation. But as that mode is rapidly going into disuse, and in many places it is entirely unknown, I do contend that somo other mode should be substituted. And if warm, comfortable (?) houses are to be purchased at the expense of the vital air of heaven, they are purchased at too dear a rate, i I am aware that persons are very apt to overlook the importance of this subject, and especially those who are not acquainted with the philosophy of respiration, and of the change affected in the atmosphere in passing through the lungs. But it seems to me jthat l any person who, after spending the night-in a close room, will go out in the morning when . | hfc can breathe the pure air for fire minutes, j and then return to his sleeping room, mu6t r be sensible of the impurity of the air and of its utter unfitness for the purpose of respira1 tion. . . 1 Another cause of this evil may be found in ; the almost universal practice of sleeping on I feather beds during the hot weather of sum, mer. J have no doubt but "beds filled with p) good straw, husks or wood, are more wholeI some even m winter^ than feathers, especially ' for children?and in summer they are <iot on. !y more wholesome, but decidedly more. com. ! furtablc. And I seriously doubt whether any 1 person who will try either for one week m hot weather would be willing to exchange it for t feathcrst * . Wood for beds is prepared by taking "birch , poles and stripping them in the same manner as (or brooms. I am told that it is about four dayjs wo^k to srrip.enough for a Bed. . But Mr. Editor I am aware that such doctrine as this will find but little favor, especially with those who most need thd change. And this, like till other reforms must be commoncend and carried on, as far- as means are concerned, by those who least need the reformation. Thus it has beep in the temperance cause and so it must be with the health cause I and indeed with all feforms of this kind. And i the unwelc'oms tru'h must be urged home upon the conscience of the community, "line upon , line and preqept upon'precept." V it-will avail nothing to declaim against the evil in question, in general terms, or to expa. tiate upon the advantages to be derived from ' a change of habits. Tuis course was pursued wiih untiring zeal for many years relative to intemperance, but nothing was accomplished . until the "ultra" ground was taken, viz: that it was absolutely wrong,?that it was sinful -to manufacture, sell or drink intoxicating li. 1 -quors."

It is unnecessary to state the par-, ticu'ar advantages which a regular periodical possesses over all other agencies; or to urge the importance of having, in this country, such a medium as it affords to make known to the > public the facts and principles of the science. . The objects of this Journal are to preserve from oblivion the most interesting of the very numerous facts confirmatory and illustrative of the truth of phrenology; to record the history and progress of the science; to show its true bearingson the education (physicial, intellectual, and moral); on the nature and treatment of insanity; on jurisprudence and criminal legislation; on mental and moral philosophy; and to point out various applications to the improvement of the institutions, manners, and systoms of society. Original essays on phrenological subjects will form part of the Journal, and also reviews of phrenologicaland anti-phrenological works; and, as often as practicable, we -shall transfer to its pagies, the bestarticles in the Edinburg Phrenological Journal. There-are already enlisted as contributors to thd work, many, of the ablest writers and best penologists in the country, as well as several foreign-correspondents. We hope, as it progresses, to embody in its pages nearly ail the matter published on the science which is of particular interest to the public, or can be of permanent value for fu ture reference. We shall frequently aecotn pany our facta and'delineations of charactej with illustrative cuts. It is not with the desire or expectation of gain that-it isoffered to the commu.iity, but from far higher considerations?rlrom a desire to know and to promulate Jruth. It \yilL be obvious to all, that 4 woik of this character must depend chiefly for support on the lolun'ory patronage and co. operations of those who are interested in the subjects it discusses, and it i'b hoped that the friends of the science will not only encourage it by their oum subscriptions, but that they will make efforts to extend its circulation in the various parts of the country where they may reside. No pains or expense will be spared on the part of the proprietors to render the work worthy of a liberal support. TERMS.
