/ INpJMPERAKCi?. J . For peopl|! to drink spirits in cold

weather, in pWliBr to be warm, is a mere fallacy, "^he glo* of warmth produced by strong drink, is not only soon over, but is followed by a weak and chilled state of the frame. .

This is evinced by many facts; and among the rest, the following. In the winter of 179G, a vessel beldnglng to Connecticut, Was wrecked on an island off the shores of.ftjaiisachusetts,, There Were seven persons on: boa id.' It was night. Five of them, resolved to quit the wreck, and seek for shelter oh shores— To prepare for the attempt, four of them drank freely of spirits; the fifth would drink none. They all leaped into the water; one was,drowned before he reach--' ed the shore. ,The other foUr 'came to land : arid, in a deep snow, andf piercing cold, direpted their coarse to a distant light. All that drank spirits failed and stopped, and (ioze, one after another.— The man that drank none,' reached the house, and still-lives to enjoy the rewards of temperance.

This is the. cause why sailors are so frequently frozen, when shipwrecked in cold weather. They feel a sort of dread' and desperation ;/t,hey drink freely, and then make-thj&attempt to escape. When they reach thelffhore, the glow of warmth the spirits ha^oceasioned, ha-ving subsi­ded, they are left in a chilled, state, pre­pared to freeze* as they do; while other persons from accidents, such as breaking through the ice, falling into the water, Sec. are equally wet* equally exposed, equally distant/from shelter, in weather equally cold, yet do not freeze.

It is,objected,* that it is excess, and not the.temperate use of spirits, that produces such fatal effects in cold weathen But the following fact shows the contrary.

A brig from, Russia,, laden with iron ran aground on a sand bar that makes off from Newport Is\and. The master was disposed to unlade suid. get her off, but the weather was extremely cold, and none Could be found to undertake tli| |ask; as the vessel wlas at-a distance'from the shores covered with ice, and exposed to thei full effect of wirid and cold.

Captain G-—r-—,,a packet master of Newport, respected for his integrity, and who had abstained from the; use of spi­rits, a t length engag:ed to unload the brig,, and procure his hands. @jx men were employed in the hold, which (the vessel being bilged) was fttU'of water. They began the work with free, but temperate use of spirits; thinking they should need it then if ever. But after two hour's la­bor they give out; cliille'd through. Af­ter refreshing and warming, they made a second attempt; using cider only, the re* mainder of <he day. They now Succeed­ed better, hut still they suffered much from cold. The second day they consent­ed to follow the.directions of Capt. G-— -, and drank nothing.but milk porridge, made rich, and taken as hot as the sto-maeh could b^sir ij. The weather was. equa lly severetas • before; but they were now able to continue their work from four to seven hours at a time; and then came up, as Captai|:G—= expressed it, "smoking JaotJ,'- With this simple be­verage, handet round every half hour.

field of labor were tinlmown; we shall find that the work.df a day was fully equal, if hot more than now, with all the aid of spirits. , - . ' • . - . -

Life Insurance.rr-lt has often been a subject of marvel to us* that the system of life insurance which prevjls so exten­sive in Great Britain.shottld never have been intrbdticed to infiy perceptible degree in thk city. The benefits of tliis practice have been Ibng felt and ackimwledged by all classes of persons in -that country, and they are of a nature to produce a sjtitl Wider and more serviceable influence i -mongst -us. Persons holding situations in public offices; clerks; widows wjth small incomes; holders of life interests in seal estates; and, indeed, allsuch as have large families/ with small income, are those to wBom this system is likely to be of greaj service. Take, for instance, the case of a man, w,ho- has( th^ee or four, ycmrig-ohildren with a small income, ari­sing fidrn his personal labor. If he be 35 years of age, by' paying about J&0. per annum, his children will be entitled aj his death, to receive #3000. Now np Sa­ving or frugality on his part, could ena­ble him to leave such a desirable sum at his death. Creditors also, wliose pros­pect of payment depends on the life of his debtor, may thus "secure his debt. But these are only two, out of a hundrpd ca­ses, where the insurer may be consoled during his life with the knowledge-that his fan)i|y will not be left destitute at his death. We are not aware that any of the companies in New-fork insure on lives, with the excep4on of. the Dutches?.— There are several others which are privi­leged by Charter to effect such insuran­ces, and they would probably exercise the privilege if the public could be once in­duced to adopt the systein.~N6ah,

Good Cider.—Good Cideif can be made any where of good fruit, by the fol­lowing method 1 When: your apples are well ground, wet your straw with the juice instead of water; put some straw in a cask next to your receiving tub* with a blanket on it to filter or strain it; then put it in good clean casks immediately; suffer it to have as little air as possible, to prevent fermentation; when your casks are full, bung them up tight and remove them to your cellar* not to be dis­turbed until the expiration of one month at least. This cider will retain its sweet­ness tor years, and be as clear as heedful. It should not be removed in the cask it was put up in* hut racked into another.

they contiuue6| their work from day to day, with not pie drop of spirits, till the iron was all ha nded Out and brought to .shore, and not 1 man had a finger frozen.

And experiei ie has taught not a fewf that if people* When travelling in cold weather,, wouT wholly omit drinking spirituous liquQ s*;they would feel,the efs fects of cold nH 3h. less: because the glow of warmth, pec; sioned liy drinking at one stage, leaves tb m ;iu this cold state, loqg before they reai h the n^x-t.,

Let it not be said, ardent spirits have become necessary, fronr habit, in harvest, and in other seasons Qf.pitcommon and arduous labor. Thl^abiit^is a bad one, and may be easily br kei** Let but half a dozen farmers ih^P'elgliborboodcom­bine tpallow higher* rageif to theirlabor­ers than common, iijd a siifiicient quan-r tity of any wholescariis"liquor; and they may soon by their %xarapte. abolish the practice,'6f giving them spirits*.

':j^.

As well mighfe^e throw oil into a hous,e, the roof of 1fchlchiwa3 on fire, in order to prevent the flames from extending to its sides, as pour ardent spirits into the sto­mach, to lessen the effects of a hot sun upon the skin.

Nor do arden^ spirits lessen the effects of hard labor upon the body. Look at the hprse; with every muscle of his body swelled from morning 16 night in the plough, or a team* does h* make signs for a draught of toddy^ or a glass of spi­rits to enable him to cleave the ground or
