GETTING A’GOOD START.
From lit Disk of Poor Hubert Vie Scribe.
“ Mill'll dttpnnilH upon puttingn good start, 1
said inv old friend Howard, ax WB were uliout
sell.Sla out upon a joiirnov to Ohio, to see
that wonderful country, to wliioh many of our
gnud people moved, a few years ngo, and
from which three nut of four heartily wished
tlie'insVIves nafo hack ugnin. The d iy had
hardly dawned hefnro wo were fairly on our
wav; the first glistonings of the sun lirnko out
on thn innuniaiii's peak, which wo were as
camlmg—the vnllnv below- us Iny obscure in
nil ocean of mist—all tho freshnoss and sweet
.ness of a Juno morning—the spicy shrub—
the fragrant wild rose— llic twittering swallow
the robin’s whistle nod tho milk maid’s song,
shed delight on our path. True, wo wore
leuving the boniiliful valley—the most charm
irrg gem in tho rich bracelet of creation ; truo
we were leaving homo and thoso who were
dear V» our nfitretinns, hut . wo had hoard of
OliioVjr/ the Pick“ w oy plains, of the rich but
toms of h'nckhockmg; frionds and kindred too
were there, and wo wished to see the laud of
promise" so ni praised. My good friend
Howard had soci; much of the world, had uc
" cumulatod wealth, was shrewd withal, was
benevolent, loved bis country, Ins friends ami
his story. “ Much depends on golfing a good
start,” said ho to mo, when as tho sun ruse
high nod his Imams hcgnti to pour in oppros
sivp floods upon us, wo stopped 24 miles from
our starting pi too to rest and hail. Then tho
mode of travailing was on n good saddled
horse, and fifty miles a day a long ride ; (hoi
there was besides health and exercise,
chancn to sec tho country; you' could ask a
farmer how his crops come on; yon could
spend a minute to admiro u fine meadow—n
brave steed or a pretty woman; you woro not
whisked along like a witch on a broken stick
or Satan on a comet's mil, like our modern
steamboats.nr Inirribln to loll I your locomotive
mil-engines. It is sad In think of. Already
has travelling become so common and so
cheap, that women cannot stay at home; and
*im tho groat thoroughfares them are such
crowding of men, women anil'children, dial
one"might suppose half the wmld turned out
of doors, and wnndoring east and west.
“ But whom did von got your fuvorito spy
ing, Mr. Howard,” inquired I. “Oh, I will
tell youj" said lie; and thn render will please
to observe, tlmt tho recont attention paid to
horsti racing—the match betweon “ Bonnets
“of BluV’and “ Golish,”—brought tho storv
to recollection. I was at Albany somo time
itj>u, said lie, and thero was In bo what for
Ihesodsys, was a great race, three milo heats
and some thousands of dollars were hotted on
(ho issue. Towards evening of the dny pro.
ceding the race, a strnnger with n blanket,
KuddloJmgs, nod tho usual trappings of n won
tern man, stopped at tho Inn where tho Jock.
C)s congregated—the race was talked of; tho
traveller declared he was sorry ho had not
known of it as he had a eritlor could heat any
thing a quarter in the village; but ho had cornu
from Boston and was tired. Eager for sport
the Jockeys told him not to mind tlmt; that
thov did not doubt his pony vory fleet, ho had
better enter for tho purse, the cnirsnre money
•only 815. Yielding to their importunities,
the wayfaring naan declared, by Grneioos bo
would “ try ’em a hack.” Tho horsp was en
tered, ordered a good food extra, and to he
rubbed down, which mightily delighted the
knowing ones, especially two or three, who
so fur imposed on tho simplicity of the travel
ler, as to coax him to bet considerable money,
indeed, ell ho could muster, on the raee.
Morning came, and luckily, a smart fellow in
Jockey trim enme along, just in the nick of
limn to mount the little sorrel of the stranger,
lie stood still on the line, while nil around
him were rearing and springing for the signal;
the‘drum tapped—Sorrel at a single leap shot
ahead—bounded over the course, nnd was sc.

with apparent ease, The Jockeys had caught
a lamprey, sml were eleetriried; they had run
their rigs on a countryman and had lost their
cash. Every thing, said Mr. Howard,depends
upon getting a good start. The story has
been a lesson to me. In looking abroad up
on lift,, how much, I have ofton thought, de
pends upon a right setting out.
A young lawyer of my urquaintanco told
me, that on henring this talc, he resolved to
follow those rules, s* an onsol to his profes
sion. To exercise uinvenricd industry—to
tell his clients frankly, wlint and all ho knew,
that might be useful to tholr cause—to study
all lii.s causes well, to he plain, simple and di
rect in tiis arguments as in his dealings, and to
select nno of his important causes, if it afford
ed room to do so, to rnakn eloquence nnd dis-
ploy; and above all, ns the rights of other men
■,vero confided to him, to follow tho strictest
rules of integrity and temperance. He wos
snon—need I tell you so ? number one in 1ii»
profession—so much for sotting out right.
A merchant whom I knew tn Ohio, thought
to get rich rather too quick. Ho would sell
to a knowing rich man under cost to court his
custom, nml rnakn a poor ignorant man pay
for it by double charges. Thero was in his
dealings n want of that gentlemanly, nice strict
honor and fnirnoss which begets confidence.
Confidence once lost, many complain without
enuso, nnd his store was deserted. Con’t you
guess the issue ? He didn’t start right.

Anecdotes connected with the appointment o]
Gen. Washington to the command of the army,
June 16, 1775.—In n manuscript Journal,
under dato of Nov. 4, 1925,1 find a record of
n conversation hud with the venerable John
Adams nt tlmt lime, rotative tn the appoint
ment of Gen. Washington, it was in sub
stance as follows ;
The army w.in assembled nt Cambridge,
Mass, under Gun. Ward, nnd Congress was
silting ill Philadelphia. Every day arrived
new applications in belmlf of the army.- The
country was urgent that Congress should
adopt the army ; for until they had, it must be
considered and was in law considered only ns
amob. a band of armed rebels. Tho country
was placed in circumstances of peculiar deli-
-nt.-y and danger. The struggle had began,
and yet every tiling was at loose ends. The
great trial now sretned to bo in this question—
who should he commander in chief l It was
exceedingly important ami was left to be the
hinge on which the wholo might turn for or
ngiiinst us. Tho Southern uml Middle States,
warm und rapid in their zeal, for the most
port Wero jealous of Xew England, hceauso
they felt that the real physical force was here.
Wlint, then, was le bo done! All New Eng
land adored Gen. Wald; lie had been m tho
French war, und Imd romo out luden with
laurels. Ho was a scholar and a gentleman.
All the qualifications seemed to cluster in
him ; and it vvus confidently believed tho army
could not roceiva any commander over him.
Wlint, then, was to he done? Diflicultios at
ovory stop. Tlta struggle was to be long and
bloody. Without union nil was lost. Union
wns strength. The country and tho wholo
country must comu in. Oiio pulsation must
break through nil hearts. Tho enuso was
ono, ard tho arm must ho one. The mem
bers hud talked, debated, considered, and
guessed, and ynt the decisivo step had not
boon taken. At length Mr. Adams came to
Ins conclusion, and tho manner of developing
it was nearly as follows: lie was walking
one morning beforo Congress Ilnll, apparent
ly in deep thought, when his cousin Samuel
Adams came up to him nnd said, “ What is the
topic with you this morning, cousin ?’’ “ Oh
the army, the army,” lie replied. “ I am de
termined what to do about tho army at Cam
bridge,” he eontmucd—“ l nm determined to
go into the hull this morning, and enter on a
full datnil of tho atato of llio Culonios, in or
der to shew tho absolute need of taking somo
decisivo steps. My whole aim will be to in
duce Congress to appoint a day for adopting
the army as tho legal army of these United
Colonics of North America; and then to hint
at my election of a commander in chief.”-—
Well,” said Samuel Adams, “ I like that,
cousin John; but on whom have you fixed as
this commander?” “I’ll tell you, George
Washington, of Virginin, a member of this
house.” “ Oh,” replied Sumuel Adams quick-
tlmt will never do, never, never.” “ !t
must do, it shall do,” said John, “ and for
those reasons; tho Southern and Middle
Mates ate loth to outer heartily into the cause,
and their arguments aro potent; they see that
England army, a New England commander,
with New England perseverance, all united,
appal thorn. For this cause they hang back.
Now, the only way is, to alluy their fears,
and give them nothing to complain of; and
this can be done in no oilier way but by up-
pointing a Southern chief over this force.
Then ail will feel secure, then all will rush to
tho standard. This policy will blend us in
one inass, und that mass will ho resistless.”—
At this S. Adams seemed greatly moved.—
They talked over tho preliminary circmnstun-
ces, and John Adams asked his cousin to se
cond his motion. Mr. Adams went in, took
tho floor and put "forth ull lii.s strength in the
delineations lie iiad prepared, all aiming at the
adoption of tho army. He was ready to own
llio army, appoint a commander, voto supplies
and proceed to business. After his speech
some doubted, some objected, nod some fonr-
ed. His wnrinth mounted with the occasion,
and to nil those doubts nnd hesitations he re
plied, “ Gentlemen, if this Congress will not
adopt this army belbro fen moons have set,
New England will have a Congress of her
own which will adopt it, and she, she will un
dertake tho struggle alone, yes, with u strong
arm and u clear conscience will front the foe
alone.” This had the desired effect. They
saw Now England was not playing, and wus
not to be ployed with ; they agreed to appoint
a day.
The day was fixed. It came. Mr. Adams
went ill, took the floor, urged the measure,
nnd after debate it passed. The next thing
was to get a lawful commander for this law
ful army, with supplies, &c. All looked to
Mr. Admits on ibis occasion; and ho was
ready. 11c took the floor, and went into u
minute delineation ol the character of Gon.
Ward, bestowing on him tho epithets which,
then, belonged to no one clso. At the end o!
this eulogy ho said, “hut this is not the man
I have chosen.” He then went into a delinea
tion of tho character of a commander m chief,
such us wus required by tho peculiar situation
of tho colonies ut lliul jnnctnro; and ulier he
had proaei.‘»d lb'* qualitiealiona in hi* nlr»ng-
est language, und given the reasons for the
nomination he wus about to make, he said—
“ Gentlemen, I know theso qualifications are
high, but wo ull know they are needful at this
crisis, in this chief. Does any one say they
lire not to bo obtained in tho country? I re
ply, they are, they resido in o"o of our own
body, and ho is the person whom I now nomi
nate, George Washington of Virginia."
Washington, who sat on Mr. Adams’ right
hand, wus looking him intently in the face to
watch tho name he was about to announce ;
und not expecting it would be his own, he
sprung from his suat the moment he heard it,
und rushed into au adjoining room as quickly
ns though moved by a shuck of electricity.
Mr. Adams had asked his cousin Sam to
move for an adjournment as soon as ihn nomi
nation wus mude, in order to give the mem
bers time fo deliberate m private. They did
deliberate and the result is before the world.
I usked Mr. Adams, among other questions
the following, “ Did you nnver doubt of the
success of the conflict?" “No, no," said
ho, “ not fur u moment. I expected to be
hung and quartered, if I was caught ; but no
mattor for tbut, my country would he free ; I
knew George l!I. could not forgo chains long
enough and strong enough to roach round
these States.”—Boston Daily Advertiser.

all the usual preparations, a gun was fired; he

other causes. Dr. Gregory mentions a gen

was fora long time liable to a feeling of suffo

and this was always accompanied by a dream
of u skeleton, which grasped him violently by

A Bystander's power of regulating Dreams.
—Dreams can be produced by whispering in
to the ears when a person is asleep. Ono of
the most curious, as woll ns authentic exam
plos of this kind ImR been referred to by neve-
rai writers: I find the particulars m a paper bv
George Gregory, and they were related tn
him by a gentleman who witnessed Ihem. The
subject of it was nn officer in the expedition
to Louisburg, in 175.9, who had this poculiar
ity in sii remarkable a manner, thut his com'
pnnions in tho transport were in tho habit of
amusing thomsolvca at bis oxpenso. They
could produce in him any kind of dream, by-
whispering into his car. especially if this was
done hv a friend with whose voice lie wns fa
miliar. At one time they conducted him
through the whole progress of a quarrel,which
ended in a duel; and when the parties were
supposed to he mat, n pistol was put into his
hand, which he fired und was nwaked by the
report. On another occasion they found him
asleep on tho top of a locker, or buuker, in the
cabin, when they mndo him believe ho had
fallen overboard, and exhorted him to snvo
himselfhy swimming. They then told him
that a shark was pursuing him, nnd entroatod
him to dive for his life. He instantly did so,
with such force as to throw himself entirely
from tho looker upon the cabin floor, by which
ho was much bruised, and awakened of course.
After the landing of the army at l.ouishurg, his
friends found him asloep in his tent, and evi
dently much annoyed bv the cannonading.
They then made iiim believe that ha was enga
god, when he expressed great fear,und showed
an evident disposition to run awny. Against
this they remonstrated, but at the same lime,
increased his fears bv imitating the groans of
the wounded and the dying; and when ha ask
ed as ho often did, who was down,they named
his particular friends. At last they told him that
tho man next himself in tho line had fallen,
when he instantly sprung from his bed, rushed
out of the tent, and was roused from his dan
ger and his dream together by falling over the
tent ropes, A remarkable circumstance in
this cose was, that after these experiments, he
had no distinct recollection of his dreams, but
only a confused feeling of oppression or fa
tigue; and used to tell hie friend that he was
suro thut ho was playing some trick upon him.
A case entirely similar is related in Smeltie’s
Natural History, tho subject of which was a
medical student at tho University of Edin-
burgh.

on the question, “ Does riches or poverty

will find thero is no comparison at all.

OHIO REFORMED
MEDICAL COLLEGE.
yyXHE public are respectfully informed that an iuati,
tution is established, and in successful operation
in the city of Now York, denominated “ The Reform
ed Medical College;” under the jurisdiction of the re
formed medical society of the United States—tlmt this
institution has arisen from its own intrinsic merit?,
notwithstanding the opposition ni illiberal and interes
ted physicians, to an eminence which has exceeded
the most sanguine expectations ol its friends.
Animated by the flourishing stutcof this College,and
feeling an ardent desire still further to disseminate tho
valuable system of practice therein taught, a second
school of tho same character was established in De
cember, 1830, In the town ol Worthington, denomina
ted “ The Ohio Reformed Medical College.” This Col
lege wns chartered hy the state as alitcrary institution;
und, uuh-rqilenlly. the iiourJ of Ttuotera adopted tbo
above, as the medical branch of their institution, whero
all the various branches of the healing art aretauglit on
the reformed'system. A number of;young gentlemen havo
here commenced their studies, and numerous othero
have applied for admission. Its locality presents tho
greatest advantages to facilitate researches in medical
botany; the aurrounding country abounding with a
great variety of medicinal plants and vegetable pro
ductions.
It is situated near the centre of the state, on the
Whetstone river, nino miles north of Columbus, on tho
northern turnpiko, and is one ol thc most healthy ant!
delightful villages in the western country. The ground
attached to the college, contains every variety of soil
for a botanical garden. Tho necessity for an institu
tion of t hiw kind, under tho direction of competent pro*
fessors, must bo strikingly evident to ell who have re
flected on the subject of medical reform. Here a sys
tem of practice is taught, altogether superior to tlm*
taught in other schools, or pursued hy other physicians;
the remedial agents being derived l'-(|m tlio vegetable
kingdom.
Tho efficacy of this practice has hhen proved, for
more than half n century, combining tlel imi ovcinenta
of the most distinguished reformers n' tlio present or
any other ago. Its superiority has bhvn so repeatedly
demonstrated, as to satisfy the most wavering anil
sceptical. It lias been tested in every varie'v and form
of disease; and its salutary effects witnessed wherethe
mercurial or mineral treatment bus been pursued with
out any beneficial cflecl, hut to tlio great injury of tlw
constitution.
Tho benefits to bo derived by an attendance ut thin
institution wilt, we trust, be Duly appreciated In thoso
who wish to acquire a correct knowledge of Hie heal
ing art. Here the student will be taught all the mo
dern practice which is deemed necessary, in addition
lo the botanical; nnd in consequence of his residing
near the institution and pursuing a systematic coursu
ol studies, combining each of the departments of me
dicine, ho may acquire n knowledge of both in u
short space of time, and at a very small expense in
compsrison to (hot of other medical institutions.
The regular fall and winter course o' lectures in this
institution, will commence on the first Monday in Oc
tober, and continue six months or longer, dining which
time a full courso of lectures on oil the different depart
ments of medical acienee will be delivered, with daily
examinations, tic. 1st, on Anatomy and Physiology;
2d, Materia Medica and pharmacy; 3d, Theory and
practico of Physic and Surgery; 4th, Midwifery; 5ih,
CliomistryjCth, Theoretical and Practical Botaiiy; 7th.
Medical Jurisprudence, &c. &c. The spring and sum •
mer course will ho more particularly appropriated to
botany, inatcria tncdica, comparative anatomy, and cli
nieal practice, tec.
There being an Infirmary connected with the Col
lege, the students will have the benefit of Clinical Prac
tice, !>v wliie.li Ihe practical part of medicine will ho
acquired with the theory.
Every Student, on graduating in Worthington Col
