BORERS—STEAM BOAT TRAVELLERS.
BY PAULDIXO.
Has it never befallen the gentle reader to
klceji in a crowded hotel, in an apartment shared
by several others ; or a stage travelling all night;
or on hoard a steam boat ? If so, you must have
Buffered from a nuisance, we fear, beyond the
reach of satire, viz :— .snoring. Whether it is
an Americanism , like whitling, spitting, putting
the "feet on the mantle-piece, and wearing hats
with a long nap, we do not at this time wish to
discujs; nor whether it is one of those general
evils incident to the universal infirmities of hu
man nature; but we do say, that your regular
snorcr , is an enemy to society, and ought cither
to cure his propensity, or turn hermit. Our oh
ject in writing this is to solicit the attention of
the learned on a subject intimately connected
with human comfort, that some means may be
adopted either to have the class of snorers kept
distinct from other people, in a different part oi
the town, and compelled to travel in a line of
stages and steamboats constructed expressly for
them; or else to check the propensity in early
childhood, by a rigid course of education. —Our
youth arc taught to dance, sing, play the fiddle,
sit straight, eat with their fork, and be virtuous;
but not a word about snoring; not a hint of this
faculty, growing up in the secrecy of night, like
a rank, luxuriant weed, within their character,
to break the peace of innocent families, and ruin,
that precious balmy slumber
night after ... 6 - • Cavelier’s bones.”

and labour. We toil, we druage, -:i; llc iy
play the hack-horse ; we do things smi..- 0
from which, in secret, we recoil; wc pass by
sweet spots and rare faces, that our very heart
reams for, without betraying the effort it costs;
and thus wc drag through the twelve long hours,
disgusted almost, but gladdened withal, that the
mask will have tin end, and the tedious game be
over, and our visor and our weapons be laid a
side.’ But the night is the gift of heaven. It
brings freedom and repose; its influence falls
coolly and gratefully upon the mind as well as
the body; and when we drop the extinguisher
upon the round untouched pillow, we at the same
time, put out a world of cares and perplexities.
What, then, must he our disappointment to find
ourselves full length, side by side, with a pro
fessed, regular-bred, full-blooded snorei, when
the spell of sleep is every few moments forming
on us, and then broken by the anomalous, in
congruous, nasal vociferations, against which,
at this particular moment, we are endeavouring
to excite the indignation ol the reader ?
It is one of the advantages of authorship, how
ever, that even evils, by yielding prolific sub.
jects for the pen, may be made a source of a
musement and profit. \V e experienced this the
other night, when returning from a day’s ab
sence, the traveller s vicissitudes sent ns to sleep
on board a steamboat, plying between this city
and Albany. Fancy us, good reader, you know,
(or, for we have been hand and glove with ton
for so long a time, you ought to know,) our sl\

epicureanism on a small scale —our enjo\ ment
ofa shady, still corner —our horror being
pushed and thrust about “any how.’ M e hate

Outers, being probabl) the onl> vc o
we should ever encounter. One fat gentleman
had just lifted his uhw ieldly person into bed, &
was tying a bandanna handkerchief around his
head, preparatory to his launching off into glo
rious repose; while a cross-looking, lean person
opposite, having wound up his watch and rescued
his feet fiom his boot?, with a prodigious deal of
straining afad ill humour; having with conside
rable difficulty discovered where he was to dis
pose of his cloak and other matters; humping his
liead, moreover, w hile getting into his couch,
and easing the pain with a smothered execration,
at length also disposed of himself to his satisfac
tion. We do not know of any thing w hich,
when a man is really out of humour, exhausts
his philosophy more utterly than hitting his head
sharply against any hard object. My friend
cursed the builder of the steamboat, in a half
smothered growl, and then all was quiet. And
now we were floating off into a pleasant sleep,
when a low and gradually increasing sound from
the berth of the fat gentleman arrested our at
tention. We listened, all was silent; and then
again the same sound, more palpable and better
developed. It was at first a long breath, of the
consistency ofa loud whisper. We turned over,
still il went on. We turned hack again, there it
was yet. We rose on our elbow in a passion,
and poked our head out between the red curtains.
There was the fat gentleman’s berth. We could
just detect a glimpse of the bandanna handker
chief, by a feeble glare of the lamp. Our sleepy
eyes passed disconsolately over the hoots and
valises. We laid down again, hut could not
“with all the weary watching of our care-tired
thoughts,” win the coy dame sleep to our bed.
What was to be done ? Oo up and hit the fat
gentleman a blow ? Impossible. Complain to
the captain ? He would laugh at us —Never was
man so weighed down, so oppressed with sleep,
and never did man so suffer from asnorer.—The
fat gentleman, as if aware of our misery, and
mocking at it, went on, like an orator getting
warm with the subject. He grew loud, vocife
rous, outrageous. We laid and listened. He
inhaled, he exhaled. Now the air rushed in
through his extended jaws, now it burst forth oh
streperously through his sonorous nose. He
took it in with the tone of an octave flute, he let
it out again with the profound depth ofatrom
hone. He breathed short, he breathed long; he
gasped, whistled, groaned, gurgled He quick
ened the time; became rapid, agitated, furious.
Hitherto he had snored with the sound of a
rushing, regular stream, hastening onward over
a deep channel—now it' was the brawl, clash,
dash, hurry, and discordant confusion ofthesamo
tide, hurled down a cataract of broken rocks—
at last he gave an abrupt snort, and ceased al
together. We were thanking heaven for this
relief, when a treble voice from the berth direct,
ly beneath, announced new trouble. It was some
one —whom, we knew not, nor do we ever co
vet his friendship, who belonged to a different
class of snorers. He made a regular, quick,
sharp, hacking sound, like that of a man cutting
wood. Hack, hack, hack—we heard it at in
tervals all night. The lean gentleman, in the
opposite part of the room, now put in his claim
as a sao*CT’ He had four notes. It was a tune.
It could be written and played any day. We
laughed outright, and inwardly resolved so find
the fellow out, and see what he was like bf
daylight. He played on some time, and then
finished with a sudden combination of sounds a
mong the constituent parts of which we could
plainly distinguish a hiss and two sneezes. His
exit reminded us of those pyrotechnic creations
atNiblo’s, Castle garden, &c. which

ded by the enlightened aiiu.ei- which
something in this gentleman’s sn«.. • “ . .
touched our feelings. A fine spirited fellow fte
was, wc warrant. Full of life and animation,
and not inclined to hide his light under a bushel.
What became of him, however, after the explo
sion, we cannot say. He left a dead silence,
and his evaporation wc almost lamented. W 7 e
should like to know, however, whether any law
can bc put m requisition against these gentry, or
why we have not the same right to practise on
the trombone, on board the steamboat, that they
possess of “piercing the nights dull ear, by
such pompous displays of nasal ability ?
PERXICIOIS EFFECTS OP VITIATED RYE
Rve is liable to be diseased by an insect de
positing its animalcula in the grain, which causes
t to sprout and produce an excrescence like a
cook’s spur, of a hard texture. When ground
down with the flour, or used m distillation, it
proves a mortal poison ; and at times has prot -
ed a pestilential scourge of Europe : it has been
equally fatal in America, and is supposed to have
been the chief cause of the plague in London.
In 1811 and 1812, a great number of lives were
lost from the spurred rye being used as food,
and liquor distilled from the rye. The great
mortality was chiefly confined to New-York
and Vermont. Upwards of twenty thousand
victims fell a sacrifice to the ravages produced
by that dreadful Poison. Meeting after meeting
or the faculty took place, to endeavor to discov
er the cause ; and after the most mature delibe
ration it was discovered by Dr. Hosack and his
tmrtv, that it wt‘,s a poisonous miasma floating

in the air, confine particularly

i morning, with a pain in my hones and head,
whereas I was in perfect health before I drank
s the gib. I accused the tavern-keeper of putting
- poison in the gin : a gentleman of the town who
i heard me and hod observed that the habitual
i gin drinkers in the place had died, seconded me
f in my charge. The landlord declared he was
innocent, and referred us to the distillery. Upon
. our applying, the distiller was much alarmed
; at our charge of his putting poison in the gin ;
, and added, it would be his ruin if the report got
, abroad, in consequence of the great mortality.
. He took a voluntary oath that he put nothing
, but the pure grain into his gin, and invited us to
i see the grain in the still house loft. We found
I it on inspection badly cleaned and probably one
1 tenth of it spurred rye, or rye vitiated by being
infested with the clavus or ergot. I was quite
1 astonished when I saw it, particularly as it was
so well described by Dr. Darwin as being a pea
i tilential scourge in various parts of Europe, pro
ducing what is called by Dr. Mason Good, in
his history of medicine, mildew mortification :
in America it was vulgarly called the dry rot.
; On dissection I have observed that the windpipe
and rectum were so completely parched by the
action of the ail* stimulating or attracting the es
, feels of the poison to the parts, that when press
ed they would give way and appear like black
snuff. I lost no time in repairing to Albany.
On my arrival, the inhabitants were in mourn
ing, on account of the loss of their relatives and
friends, some of whom had risen in health in the
morning, had oaten a hearty breakfast and at
noun were in eternity ! Such were the rapid
effects of that inflammation, which was ascribed
by the doctors of New-York to the air of Alba
ny being charged with the damps of death. The
members of the assembly ofthe state had at the
time under their consideration, a resolution to
enable them to remove the state legislature from
Albany ; it was expected that the resolution
would he carried the same night, to the great
and irreparable injury of the inhabitants. To
the friend who was waiting for me at the hotel,
I communicated the glad tidings of having dis
covered- the cause of the disorder. He imme
diately ran to the assembly room and obtained
the members’ consent to adjourn the question un
til the following morning. ’I he tavern where 1
was soon crowded by the members and citizens,
all anxious to know the cause. It was no soon
er communicated with a detail of my own suffer
ings, than the members searched the book.

offered to prove whether the ergot Wa» . ‘RUnous
or not, for a large quantity of it that had
separated from the rye was given to the pigs :
and from its fatal effects (as it caused their death
the next day) the father became a convert to
the opinion. A number of rats, cats and dogs
also fell sacrifices to its effects before the scepti

Ts. White & William Hagar,
RESPECTFULLY inform the Printers of the
United States, to whom they have long been in
.uvlauaity known as established Letter Founders, that
they have now formed a co-partnership in said busi
nes- and hope from their united skill, and extensive
experience, to be able to give full satisfaction to all
who may favor them with orders.
The introduction of machinery* in place of the tedious
and unhealthy process of casting type by hand, long a
desideratum by the European and American Founders,
was, by American ingenuity, and a heavy expenditure
of time and money on tlie part of our senior partner, first
successfully accomplished. Extensive use of the nla
chine cast letter, has fully tested and establishes its
superiority, in every particular, over that cas- by the
old process. , , ,
