FIDELITY
Never forsake a friend. When enemies
gather around when sickness falls on the I
. . !
heart when the world is dark and cheerless
-is the time to try true friendship. TJie
heart that has been touched with true gold,
will" redouble its efforts when the friend is
sad and m trouble. Adversity tries real
friendship. They who turn from the scene
of distress, betray their hypocrisy, and prol
that interest only moves. If you have a
friend who loves vou who has studied your
interest and happiness be sure to sustain
him in adversity. Let him feel that his for
mer kindness is appreciated, and that his
love was not thrown away. Real fidelity
may be rare, but it exists in the heart. Who
has not seen and felt its power, who have
never loved a friend or labored to make a
friend happy ! The good and the kind, the
affectionate and the virtuous, see and feel the
heavenly principle. They would sacrifice
wealth and honor to promote the happiness
of others ; and in return, they receive the
reward of their love, by sympathizing hearts
and countless favors, when they have been
brought low by disease or adversity.
Who is acdword T The man who attacks
another by surprise, or with a weapon in his
hand when the other has none, is a coward.
The man who carries a deadly weapon
about his person in this intercourse with an

JUDICIOUS HINTS FOR WTVES.
Never complain that your husband pores
too much over the newspaper, to the exclu-
ciiTi rf f li a f nLoaainn nAnroro tstV r vtah
formerly enjoyed with him. Don't hide the
paper; don't give it to the children to tear;
don't be sulky when the boy leaves it at the
door, but take it in pleasantly, and lay it
down before your spouse. Think what a
man would be without a newspaper; treat it
as a great agent in the work of civilization,

Dr. Drake, ""a physician, of Cincinnati,
whose acquaintance with;, this disease is said
to be as extensive as that of any practitioner
in the West, has published some suggestions
on the subject, which we think worthy of
notice. : '
1. That leaving the city can do ho possi
ble good. The disease is not contagious.
The cause of it has already spread through
the city and been received into the bodies of
the inhabitants. Those who escape to the '
country are more likely to be ill, than if?
they remained at home: .....;'.., ;
2. Epidemic cholera has no premonitory
symptoms. The diarrhoea, which is suppos
ed to be its forerunner, is the disease itself, in
its first stage; aa positively so as when it
has advanced to vomiting, or eoldness and
collapse ;
3. The disease may be generally stopped
if met in that early stage; if it cannot then, '
it cannot afterwards I -..It cannot eveR then,
if the patient eontinu.ef tm bis feet J Hia ,'' j ;
life depends on his lying by.
'4. All persons, Hwho. have wnj flannel
during the winter should keep, it 09 txatU
the epidemic has passed away. .
