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.” which lies so “starkley m a -j Snorers! Why they are monsters. them in our rural peregrinations, and smile in wardly on finding their acquaintance cultivated bv unwary strangers, who little think what a limp they are falling into. We are one of that —tensive class of human creatures who enjoy a _ . •- The day emphatically belongs fair nigfu » - . ' *without reluctance to care to earth. Weyield i* ’--t W c pant, wc 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\ penchant for comfort —our harmless pieces of epicureanism on a small scale —our enjo\ ment ofa shady, still corner —our horror being pushed and thrust about “any how.’ M e hate even, on occasions betrayed too many of our secret tastes and antipathies, and have been rated sometimes by anonymous correspondents, '•'tfr ■ ** • •—' tor urcierrinir familiar,invisible gem*.

A genlleman, about eleven oi she'd a dole dim lamp suspended from the cet , h efiU ful light upon the long, low, narrot The curtains of the berths we l their Divers boots, which when£ respective legs, had ° lain ’l® rc „ |, cr c and . jjaced over fields, now la> in P j ■ ihero. Hats, valises umbrellas. 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 to >e av. round, and then explode with a whirl round bc bounteously applau phiz and a whiz, sure - • There was 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 . - . td certain prescribed limits in the air, confine particularly and affecting certom f those that wore in the habit o. «... f the best apology for the.r ™ If,time a fine, clear, hard frost, and was at i--** . *ber that could be imagined, the healthiest sceptical and could Many of the member jhouafht that owing not believe the repot . -•,] A. the conta “ l "t of the same | gion toexis octors.

On my journey from New York to Albany, where the legislature o , S TJ“ S and fin" cold, contrary to my Kinder hook, k ° a glass of gin.

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. O 7 B shops and libraries, and found to their great sat isfaction that the ergot was capable oT commit b: ng the ravages upon mankind that I had re. present t 0 th« m * >ne ot ,e sceptical of the faculty on bri’Qg requested to analyze the ar tide, and report 0.2 ’he subject, took a few of his acquaintances some disfauP* 4 in *° the country to dine at his father’s farm, where ‘* >ri o PP°riunity 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 cal were convinced. —Whitlaio on the Causes of Inflammation, <^r. ■ I————p—l« Administrator 7 ** Sale.
