Abuse of Laxatives. It is perfectly certain that, in the m tural state of man the bowels are quit able to act regularly without the aid f laxatives. If they are not, the Create must have failed in accomplishing his ait ?a conclusion which no rational min can arrive at. If, on the other hand, the are intended and constituted to act with out external aid, it necessarily follow tnata wi le departure from the order c nature must have taken place somewhert to procure the inactivity which is so eraliy complained of, especially among fe males. On the principle we have lai down of nourishment requiring to he pre portiorie l to waste, it will not be d:ffi?ul to explain in what this departure consists It is in the mode of life being by far to sedentarv to admit either oi the nature ' I ' L- .nn/taro r>r?iiri?H TT1PT1 wasie, which aiwr icnubio necessary, taking place, or of that consl hntly recurring contraction and relaxatio of the abdominal and respiratory muscle.' which have been pointed out as aiding s effectually the peristaltic motions of th intestinal canal.* If, in conformity wit the diminished wants of the system, w reduce the quantity of food and incroas the exercise, neither the oppression of rf pletion nor the need of opening medicin will he felt. Bui if, along with diminishe exhalation and diminished muscular ar tio.n, we persevere in eating copiously o nutricious aliments, either digestion mus fail, the system become too full, or som artificial stimulus be given to aid the how els in expelling its superfluous aliment. Such, accordingly, are results observabl in everyday life. One is saved for a tim from more serious evils by his stomac becoming enfeebled, and refusing to diges ' excess of nourishment which it receives In another, whose digestion is more vij o ~ o-ous, the system becomes full and exci ted to the brink of inflammatory disease a sudden atlack of which hurries him t the tomb. While a third gets rid of th hud hv stimulating the bowels to highe O . action than is natural to the mode of life rt other words, artificial waste is < \cite( l?y purgatives, to supp'v the place of tha which ought to result from the active us* of the bodily powers, and which alon* renders a full diet proper or safe. It is not enough, then, to sit by the lire blame nature, and lament over our nnfor tunate constitution, which obliges us ti make such constant use of medicine. I* the great majority of instances, nature i more willing to do her part than wo are t< do ours, and all that she requires of us i to fulfil those conditions without whi -l she is powerless, and we are sufferers ail* unhappy. If we exercise our minds ant bodies in healthful occupation, and seel to inhale the pure atmosphere which Go* has spread around us, so as to import tha gentle impulse to the stomach and bowel which I have already described as neces nsrv to their action, we shall have no nee of laxatives to assist them. But if w < hoo.se to neglect his laws, and lo live n bodily inaction within doors, and thus dc prive the bowels of all natural aid let u nt least take the blame to ourselves, an< not unjustly throw it upon the Ruler who** injunctions we thus practically despise.? And if, while leading this inactive life, w continue to gratify taste by eating mucl more than waste requiries, and thus stain in need ofVurgatives to enable us to tlirov otf the load, let us at least be just, and in stead of lamenting over a defective con stitntion lot us deplore tlic ignoranc which has hitherto blinded us to the pet ception of the truth, nod led us to Main a Being whose arrangements are so evi dently intended for our happiness. During the active years of childhoo and youth, when a strong instinct impel to much locomotion in the open air, hoi rnrelv do we find the stimulus of purgr tive necessary to the proper action of th bowels, except after errors in diet or soin unusual1 accident! And what is it tha induces imperfect activity in later year: if rot the change in the habits, ore up? tions and mode of life? If the lively an hounding girl, whose loose and uncor strained ntlire admits of the freest motio and fuliest respiration, passes in a fc months from the exuheratit and indu gence of her feelings, intellict, and mm cular system, to the qniet and compose inaction and confined dress of a sedat young lady, who never walks out excej at a measured pace (o school or to eland is it really wonderful that her stouiac and howels should begin to act withies vigor, and tint in time, her const itulio should be so far impaired as to render n( cessarv the constant use of U.ulives?'J'iic stomach and how< Is, in fact, are rc gnrded very much as if they are indepei dent powers within us, and placed thei purposely for our molestation. So man heavy charges arc continually broug! against them, that they can scarcely evt be found in the right. Tney are blame for every act of mischief which cannot 1 clearly proved against another organ; an yot, influential as there arc in aflectin our comfort, they are treated hv us wit very little care or ceremony. Their pov t*rs and wishes are consulted, in nothin hut thi-ir hacks are leaded at the caprb of their owners, worse, as Sir F Head o! serves, than any pack-horse; ncverthelci we abuse them most emphatically who they sink to theoarih overwheliucd !>y tl weight imposed upon them. They are, i short, the scape-ghosts which must be; atl our physioligical delirujueneies, an save us the pain of blaming ourselves, they feel uneasy after a heavy meal, it not we who are to blame for having eatc it. No! it is the fish which lies heavy c the stomach, or the stomach which is ui fortunately at war with soup, or potato* or some other wetl-rclished article. W Tight 1 icing, among its injurious effee up^n the animal economy, tends to reenter t b. w ds lorpid restr lining the n .tional action the abdominal and pectoral muscles which wh< nnrcstoriug keep the bowel* in-continual actio ??H?M ' g?????M have nothing to do with the mischief exu cept as meek and resigned sufferers. We e never eat more than enough. We never devour lobsters, or oysters, or salmon, or )r cheese, or any thing which experience has ,, taught us our enfeebled stomach cannot II o j digest! v And vet, somehow or another, our stomachs get hold of all these things in spite ,g of us, and we must pay the same penalty as if we had eaten them deliberately, and with malice prepense! the case is hard, no doubt, that we cannot lead indolent and .. slothful lives, and yet enjoy the incompatci ihle luxury of having the appetite of a rus. tic and the digestion of a tiger;?but since It we are so unfortunately constituled that j. we must act like ratioual creatures or sufo fer the penalty, would it not be a wise t| proceeding to set a better watch on the ,t stomach, and try to subject it to more effectual control? n In mature and middle age, after the efj, fervcscence and boisterous activity of o youth are over, still greater caution than c before becomes requisite. Growth no h longer goes on, ind nourishment is needo C ' e ec merely to supply waste; and accordc ing-y the appetite becomes less keen, and the power of digestion less intense. If the individual continues from habit to eat as heartily as before, even after changing ^ io a sedentary mode of life, the natural vigor of the digestive system may enable e it to withstand the excess for a time, hut . ultimately dyspepsv, or some form of disease dependent on indigestion, wil! ccrc tainly ensue. The attempt to combine e the appetite and digestive power of enrlv h 1 youth with the altered circumstances and d | comparative inactivity of mature age, is !* the true source of the multitude of bilious complaints, sickheadaches, and other an,'ulogoiis ailments now so common and so ' , faseioiiiihie iu civilized society; arid thev ^ [ will never begot rid of so long as their ex j citing causes are allowed to ope rase with . ! unrestricted freedom, r] | Tiie stomach, like every other organ ! of the body, is for the wisest purpo:ii5 | lowed a certain range, within which it ? in ?v exercise its functions wi.houl injury j to health ; and it is only in virtue of such j a power that it can adapt itself to the different circumstances in which an individual n i inay be placed. If every trifling change | in the quantity or quality of food were to s be followed by mi<ciiievoiH consequences. 0 no one could retain health for a single s ' day ;and if the stomach had no power of -j ; partially adapting itself to a particular ^ j kind of aliment, every change of place ^ ' and of climate must soon have been att , tended by the loss ofhealth and life; be j cause there are scarcely any two places or t countries in which precisely the same s j tood will be set before us. u | According to this law of adaptation, (j which of course, has its limits, the stomach e ' may be accustomed to the reception of ein | titer a larger or smaller quantity of food | than what the necessities of the system re? [ quire. If it is accustomed to too much, j ; and loss than usual be allowed. an unpleaI sant feeling of vacuity will arise, aecotn_ i panicd bv a craving for more ; but after a p ; few days the unpleasant sensatiop will dis, i apptar, and the feeling of satisfaction be j | as great as if a full meal had been taken, v J and digestion will become more healthy . i and vigorous ; w hereas, if in >ro food continues to be taken than wiiat the system (, requires, inereh to gratify the temporary craving, ultimate bad health will be the R inevitable result. j_ This is precisely the error which is generally fallen into. The stomach is accus(j tomed during voulh to receive and digest |s a larger quantity of food than what is re^ quisile to carry on growth and repair the ^ | ordinary waste of the system ; and from e j custom, not from wan!, we eonlitiue to fill e it as liberally after growth is completed and waste is diminishud as we did before, s ; when both were at their height. And if u ! by any chance we eat less for a day or j j two, we mistake the temporary sense of . 1 emutincss for the indications of appetite, 1 1 . ~ " n and are not satisfied till it is removed. A, i Tiie natural consequence is, that we eduI ' rate thes'omach to demand more food than j the system requires, and more than it can tj ; itself continue to digest ; and hence the e ] numerous evils which we daily witness as ^ ; the fruits of indigestion, j j In thus punishing us with the pangs of Ij j indigestion as a warning to more reasonaw J ble conduct, Providence displays the purest j beneficence. To place this in a clear ! point of view, let us suppose digestion to ; continue perfect, notwithstanding the I daily reception of an excess of food into i i the stomach, the result would necessarily i he the regular formation of an undue ^ 1 I quantity of chyle ; this, in its turn, would j. ; produce an excess of blood throughout the ' whole system and the individual would ,(j ! thus exist with all his functions in a state )C of constant oppression, and in continual |fl danger of the rupture of a blood vessel, (T till, from mere fulnes , some active dis? j case would be excited, requiring the in! stantand vigorous use of the lancet for its V I relief, or very probably cutting short life. If then, man cannot restrain ins appetites and effectually subject them to the eon3s trol of reason, another check against conn | tinued aberration is required ; and, i'ortu:.! ? j ately for us, it is to be found in lh< reiu^a ! of the stomach to continue to <i,g? si much more titan the quantity demande I |f? | by the wants of the body. In practical j J-j life we meet, in fact, with both results, j i There are some persons constituted with ! such vigorous powers of digestion, that no quantity of food oppresses their stoni() achs. If they eat habitually more than ^ what is required to supply waste and sustain the system, they speedily sulfer from repletion, or some one or other of the dis. s eases arising out of its existence, such as he inflammation, apoplexy, rupture of blcodvessels, enlargement of the heart, or morbid growth in some organ of the body. j'jjwmi l l^?ap?c , I In the greater number, however, of those who exceed in quantity, the stomach itself i is enfeebled by the overexertion to which I it is subjected, just as the muscles are from 1 excess of labor; and the consequence is, | impaired digestion, which prevents the i food from being duly converted into ! chyle, and thus protects the system from j the fulness which would otherwise be in! duced. Accordingly, it is a familiar truth ' that those who eat most are not always the best nourished?and that, on the contrary, the stoutest men are those who eat comparatively little. It is therefore of great importance to be able to read aright the instructions of nature, and to aot in conformity to their meaning. In practical benefit to ourselves it will make a great difference whether we re! gard indigestion as merely an accidental j and capricious occurence, unconnected with conduct, or as purposely meant to warn us from continuing to act against laws instituted to secure our well-being ' and happiness. In the former case, we , may go on unsuspectingly in the road to i destruction till it is no longer in our pow-, er to turn back ; whereas, in the latter, 11 we cannot feel a single pang of indiges- i I tion without being reminded of some ah- . i erration from the path of duty, and secking to return by the shortest way. It is j too true that, even aware that we are go- i J ing wrong, we do not always choose to < retrace our steps ; but it is not less true i that we shall be more likely to fulfil the 1 laws of nature when we are made acquainted with their existence and intention, than when left to the guidance of ignorance alone. It must be observed, also that hitherto little of the requisite knowl. edge had been imparted to the young on this subject before the habits of action were formed; and theref'oro no inference can be drawn from their 1 ro-iducf id riratms'ances so unpropmous, . whom .van wif!* jinv fairness he held as ; {i|)p!:'*al?!e to 11?? time when knowledge | I i!ar: 1! be communicated to the young as j I an indispensable part of a useful educa-! sio ?A drew Comb on Digestion. I EX''I?SS :.V QUANTITY OF FOOD. Prof ssor CnldweJ, of Transylvania University, Ky, in one of his vigorously : co eived a H h ghly instructive essays, i invt ghs elo j ertly agiinalthe intemper. ! anc< o his c uimryman in eating as well j as i,i drinking, and says that one Amcri| c:*n on urnc.s as much food as two HighI " j lande s or two Swiss, although the latter are mon . the stoutest of the race. 44 In- j tempt ra;ure eating," says he, 44 is per-1 haps /he most universal fault wc commit. We are all guilty of it, not occasionally, I hut habitually, and almost uniformly, i j from the cradle to the grave. It is the , j banc alike of our infancy and youth, j our maturity and age. It is infinitely | more common than intemperance in , drinkinrr . and the a.Toreffate of the mis p? > l-CT cchief it does is greater. For every reeling drunkard that disgraces our country, it contains one hundred gluttons.?persons, I mean, who eat to excess and suffer by the practice." flow, indeed, he afterwards exclaims, can the case be otherwise, while children and youth are regular! y taught, hired, bribed, or tempted, o to over (at themselves from their birth !' * j I)o you a^k roc for evidence or proof of this charge? Go to our dining-roo'fs, J nurseries, fruit-shops, confcctionaries, and pleasure-gardens?go even to sickroom.:?and you will find it in abundance. You wdl witnessthcre innumerable scenes of gormandizing, not only productive of disc kso in those concerned in them, but | in many instances offensive to beholders. I The frighful incss often consists of all j sorts of eatable materials that can be col lecle i and crowded together ; and its only measure is the endurance of appet.teandthe capacity of the stomach. Like the ox in rich pasture ground, or the sw?ne at hisswill.trotigh, men stow away their viands until they have neither desi e nor room for any more. I do not say that such eating-matches always and every where occur among us. But 1 do say that they occur too frequently, and that they form fit subjects for caricature pictures by European tourists of our dom s ic manners. I add, however, that similar scenes present themselves in every country I have visited, where provisions a e abundant and cheap." Controversy between New York and Virginia. In a new edition of Rents' Commentaries just published, he introduces this subject in a note ?>? page 87 of vol. I, as fol.ows: From Kent's Commentaries, vol. I. No'e to j). 87. " The Constitution ol the Unfed States has provided lor die surrender of fugitives from justice, between the several States, in cases f ol 'treason, felonv, and o'her crimes,' but it lias not designated tiie specific crimes for winch a surrender has been made, and this i?a - led to ifiicultios, as between the States. Thus, "or :n-'ance, in 1839 the Governor of ' V ir^inia made app icaiion to the Governor of j Now tora lor ih? surrender of three men, charged by afiidavil as being fugitives froin justice, in te!uniously stealing and taking away from one Colley in Virginia a4 negro slave Isaac, the property of Colley. The applica. lion was uiade under the act of Congress ol February 12, 1793, chapter 7, section I, founded on the Constitution of the United 6' rttes, Art 4, sec. 2, as being a case of treason, felony, or other criin ?, wuhm the Consiitution and the Law, and certified as the statute directed Tne Governor of New York refused to surrender tli# supposed fugitives, on the ground that slavery and property in slaves d d not e\ist m New York, and that tli'1 offence was not a crime known to the Laws of New Yo.Ji, and consequently not a Ciirae within the meaning of the Constitution and Statute of the United Stales. The Executive and Legislative authority of Virginia, on the other hand, considered the case to be within the provision of the Constitution and the Law, and that the refusal was a denial of right, it was contended that the Constitution of the United States recognises the lawful existence of slaves as property, for it apportions the representatives among the States on the basis ol the distinction between free persons and other persons, and it provides m Art. 4, sec 2, for their surrender when escaping from one State to ano her; that slaves wera regarded as properly in nearly all the States and protected as such, and particularly in New York, when the Constitution was made, and that the repeal of those laws and renui.ciations of that species of property, in another State; and that the refusal to surrender felons who steal that property in Virginia, and floe with it, or without it to New York, on t!ie ground that blacks uro no longer regarded as property iu Now York, is a violation of the Fed. eral compact, and of the act of Congress thereon. This case involves very grave considersorations. I Imve reud and considered every authority, document and argument on the subject, that were within my command, and in my iinmble view of the question, I cannot but be ot opinion that the claim of the Governor of Virgin, ia was wel. founded and entitled to be recognized and enforced."
