SUNDAY SICKNESS.

as :on soy other day of ihe week? and I

The Sickness of which I am speaking,
prevails all over the country, so as to a flee i
atl classes though not in the same degree.
Tlje intlustrious, hard laboring classes are
mrfre apt to be down on Sabbath, than the
rich and fashionable. M
The latter cannot or will not afford it, as
many want the day for riding, sailing and
visiunp their friends. Ihe laboring peo-
plejin the cities, are not so liable la these
periodica? attacks as in the country ; ano
the reason seems to be the same; they
want the Sabbath for relaxation, with which

The master of life in admiration cf the gener

In memory of this event, the image of the
Pia-fa was engraved on the bluff. Such is the
Indian tradition. Of cenrse 1 do not vouch fur
its truth. This much however is certain ; the
figure of a large bird cot into tbe solid rock, is
