It ihowi your anxiety to reach it, and your re luctance to leave it. At any rate stay at home in the afternoon, to reflect on the discourse of the morning. Dress as thin as possible in the win ter. It strengthens the constitution and prevents colds. Uesides, a man who wears summer clothes in the win ter, will never get trusted, and he will escape both debts and duns. When fire is cried, stay at home and take care of yoursrlf j let it have its own way, and it will soon exhaust itself. iNeve r speak well of a person behind his back. It shows a nice discrimination of character, fend gives you an opportu nity to indulge in " the glorious privi- eges of finding fault. . In large parties, if you wish to raise your reputation for taste, persuade your fried, if he has a bad voice, to en- teruif .ihe...comp.aoy ..Lth...aa?.'.ng-i nd then cwmpel one who sings well to succeed him. It will prove yr ur friend ship to admonish him publicly. If you intend to get blue at a party, do it earlu in the evening. It shows that you are taking high ground s und you may chance to get the better ol others, ja being sober at the breaking up. tarlv rismtr is very injurious to young ladies ; it gives a vulgar fresh ness and bloom to the cheeks, quite un sentimental ; but They should keep lite hours at night and never rise in the morning until they can se the sun high enough to tell him how they ' hare his beams." They will soon attain a most interes ting pale and yellow hue of complex ion. In cold weather, take care to keep open doors and a hot fire. By roas ting your shins, you will gain on one side what you lose on the other. From the New-Ywrk Patriot. NEW-YORK. Our readers are already apprised that the Tennftgecrncrolutlonr agninst envrmnrhsrr been acted upon in tie Legislature of Y. York. We mate the following extracts from the debate in that Body,, on tAee resolutions, to shew the spirit ana temper existing in that great State, relative to t eaueu system, by mcans of w Inch the partisais of Wm.

Mr Pill regretted that the motion to was 'relattaTrt at this late hour to protract the discission, but his feelings would not let him :enin .longer silent he should not detail theTommitte'e long."

' The new constitution, sir, has releised the People from host of el!ih and inter ested advisers ; they are left more free to art and judge for themseUei. 1 hey will no longer submit to dictation. They are daily becoming more opposed to the cau cut system. Thev are riht, and I shall rerord my vote against the resolutions before us. Mr. Caaar rose amidst loud calls for the queation. and observed that he wit not to be put down by call for the ques tion, lie thould hive supposed that in ttead of acting nn subject of this irn norlance in dumh show, gentlemen would feel the necessity of offering something to the house, which might en-ible u to render some sort of apology to our con stittirnts for this waste of our lime and o( ihcir money. The question now before the house docs not relate to county can, ciises. because in them there is a specific delegation of power frem the people They represent the people. Out Is that the case here ? We are now acting on subject which ha never been committed to u by any power, either express or im plied : and we are called upon to pan thee resolutions mum. Mr. C theh went into an able discussion of the coasti .mtionality of Congressional CaurussCs, which he contended were adverse, not on ly to the spirit of the constitution, but to the very principles en which a Kcpubli can government is founded. Mr. Tallmaogb remarkeJ that is we were about to establish by Legislative sanction an electornl college unknown to the f'onjititytion, he thought it was pro per to define its character, and prescribe the nnnnrr in which it should be atrn (led. He knew of no restrictions that had born made by any law of Congress. 1 1 ere were no guards agiunst corruption. l!.0!Lr.JSi!M-JA...T speri.il provision wns mhrie to secure apainst hiihrry and corruption by ade quate punishments!

Lc Rcntlemcn contrast liifc-piiifulstim nf a-ibiiling, ibe oflet-ol which might in this State he punished as a biibe, with Mr (ffer of a fiiinion in France, and then ask themselves which was most corrupt. There were great principles involved in this subject. It drew after it important consc q'lences, well deserving the deep examination of the House. Mr. Ft ago proposed to amend the amendment, by adding " excluding ir regulars." Mr. HunnAnD fof Chcnnno, Editor of the Norwich Journal; wished to act un derstandinplv on this ?ibcct. The gen tleman from Dutchess (Mr. Tnllmadg) had seemed to nll'ide to a corrupt offer made by one of the Presidentiiil candi dates of a mission to France. If such an ofTcr had been m'-iiVi" he wisTieiTfo know it. It seemed to be the ish of some gentlemen to try the strenirth of their constitutions, if vyas then nearly 6 o'- ock, I and he wished to know what was the object of takinjt so many divisions ' He thought it was indecorous, and an in sult to the House hut he would stay Here until 6 o'clock in the morning if it was not sooner ' J I'or h-i.-rT-r. lV "lcl rjot be driven from it by that gen tleman. - ' Mr. Tali.madgf. remarked, that he certainly should not attempt to drive the 'ftfe h'nem an la s( tfpffo m "his put'p.ofc c.
