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.

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. vcral yards st the start which no her otild lessen. The second r ourse he stood motion- - legs as before, and r.t tho drum tap, sprung in advance, kept ahead, nnd woe tbrr second boat Now Engiosd holds tlm physical • • L - J *-* her handri, and lliey fear the result* A 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. Dolly Shrewsbury ivns a pretty girl as ever sat in the meeting house at Applebury; that is if elegance of form, regularity of features nnd howitcliing grnce could make her pretty. She knew it, the huzzy, and was vain. At sixteen Dolly wos in her conquests; one after another owned her sway; a blink of her bonny blue eyes sent with a smile from her lips so full of expression, like Hare’s compound blow pipe, was irresistiblo, and could melt a heart of pln- tinn. For several yeflrs slio rodo forth, belle of tho village, conquering and to cotiquer,and slio could not find it in her heart, she, who rulod so many with despotic sway, to promise to “ obey” one. Meantime, venrs ran round and Jdtittllo, a little sister of Hiss fllirewshii- ry shot up, in all tlio round grace and swelling beauty of 17. A man of wealth whom Dolly might have hern proud to have taker., proffer ed Ins heart and linml and led Jnnofte n happy bride to the Altar. There was no coquetry ■■bout her; simple nnd pure of heart ns she was fair, sincoro ns sl,o was fascinating, she strove for no victory but over the natural' vanity al ways iillcndnnt on henuty. When last I saw ner, slio was tho happy mother of two charm ing boys, while Dolly, rather antiquated, had just taken up with a fourth rate beau, with whom she had refused to dance at a ball; who now Ids her feel tlmt lie is paster, and knows llio pleasure of being obeyed. Such weie the difference in starling. 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. dreams which are excited by a uoise, a that the same sound awakens tho person' produces a dream, which appears to him t copy a considerable time. The following ex ample nt this hns been related to me: A gen tleman dreamt that he had enlistod as a sol dier, joined his regiment, deserted,-vas appre hended, carried bnck, tried, condemned to bo slim, and, at last, led out for execution. After all the usual preparations, a gun was fired; he awoke with the report, and found that a noUo in an adjoining room had hath produced the dream and awaked him. 'The same want of the notion of lime is observed in dreams from other causes. Dr. Gregory mentions a gen tleman who, after sleeping in a damp place, was fora long time liable to a feeling of suffo cation whenever he slept in a lying posture, and this was always accompanied by a dream of u skeleton, which grasped him violently by the throat. Ho could sleep in a sitting pos ture without any unexsy feeling; and,after try ing various experiments, he at last had a sen-1 tinel placed beside him, with orders to awake 1 hil'i whenever he sunk down. On one occa sion he was attacked by the skeleton, and a s.-vere end long struggle ensued before ho aw.’ to . On finding fault with his attendant foi .Rowing him to lie so lo,ng in such a state of suffering, he wt* assured that he had not lain an n.stant, but Imd been awakened the moment lie began to sink.

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. llyto is Style,—Orator O’Botherera’s speech on the question, “ Does riches or poverty t'.nd most to the exaltation of tho human mmd ?” “ I shall proceed, .VIr.

Jan. 31.—5—tf. 1C 00 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 lege, will become a member of the Reformed Medical Socictyoftho United States, from which he will re ceive a diploma and reports of ail tho improvements of its different members, and bo entitled to all its coniti- tulional privileges and benefits. There will bo no specified time to complete a course of studies, but whenever a student is qualified to pats an examination, ho will receive a diploma.
