v Cautions. . *
The warm weather being at hand,
and some casual!ties having already
happened in this city in consequence
of certain irregularities in driujeand
diet, it is respectfully recommended
to take a few precautions.
1. Beware of giving your children
«> much food, at a time when the di
stivc poWt-es of (he stomach are
so much enfeeble# by the weather.
2. Beware, particularly of giving
children too many (chciTles, green ap
ples, 8e O
3. You ought to be very careful in
the use of ice, or very cold water,
when you have i*emained in the
sun, and the body is considerably
heated. We are all diposed, on these
occasions, to rush to the ice-water,
to satiate our thirst. Beware; the
draught may prove fatal. When
heated, never eat ice, or drink cold
water, until you have reduced thetem
■peratnre of your body. Take some
cold water first in your mouth, and
nnee it two or three wash
your face and hands with it—Or, pa
tiently wait untH you have cooled
yourself.
4. To boys we particularly recom
mend it to he iMaporate in the use of
the cold bath—not to bathe in (he ri
ver too long, nop in the hot season of
the day.
These and a hundred other rules
we could specify, by away of precau
tion—hat we have not time to go into
detail"—and. besides, these few rules
may furnish hints forth© rest.

SAGACITY of a dog., ,
One day when Dumont, a trades
man of the Rue St. Dennis, Paris,
was walking in the Boulevard, St. An-1
toine, he offered to lay a wager with
the latter, that if he were to hide a
six livre piece in the dust, his dog
would discover and bring it to him.— 1
The wager was accepted, and (he coin
secreted after being cafeiully marked.
When the two f. ieluls had proceeded
some distance from the spot, M. Du
mont called to his dog that he' had
lost something,, and ordered him to
seek for it. Caniche immediately
turned back, and his master and com
panion pursued their walk to the Rue
St. Dennis. Meanwhile, a traveller,
I who happened to he just then return-
I ing in a small chaise from YincennVs,
' perceived the piece of ittohcy which
. Ills horse had ki< ked from its hiding
place. He alighted, look it up, and
, drove to his inn. in flic Rue Point aux
Chous. Caui he hud just reached the
spot in quest of the ecu when the stran
ger picked it up. He followed the
chaise, went into the inn, and stuck
close to (he traveller. Having scented
nut the coin he had been ordered to
bring buck, in the pocket of (he latter,
be leaped np incessantly at and about
him. The traveller supposing him to
be some dog that had beeu lost or left
behind by his master, regarded his
different movements as murks of fond
ness; and, as the animal was hand
some, he determined to keep him.—-'
He gave him a good snppOr, and on j
retiring to bed took him with him to
his <hamber.-<— No sooner had he
pulled ot his breeches than they were
seized by the dog. The owner eon- ,
reiving that he wanted to play with ;
them, took them away again. The
animal began to bark at the door,
which the traveller opened, under the
I idea that be wanted to go out. Cani
ehe snatched up (he breeches, and he
flew. The traveller posted after him
with his night cap on, and literally
sans culottes. Anxiety for the fate of
a purse Hull of gold Napoleons of for
ty francs each* which was in one of
the pot kets, gave redoubled velocity
to bis steps. tUaniche'rau full speed
to bis master’s house, where the
stranger arrived a moment afterwards
breathless, atid enraged. He accused
the dog of robbing him. “Sir,” said,
the master, “my dog is a very faith
ful creature; and if he has runaway
with yoirt' breaches, it is because you
have ia them money which dues not
belong to you.” The traveller became
still more exasperated. .. “Compose
yourself, sir,” rejoined the other,
smiling—“without doubt there is in
your purse a six livre piece, with such
and such marks, which you have'
picked up in the Boulevard 6t. An
toine, and which I. threw down there
with the firm eonviction that my dug
would bring it back again. This ■is
the cause of the robbery which he has
committed upon you.” The stran
ger’s rage now yielded to astonish
ment; he delivered the six livre piece
to the dog, which had occasioned him
so much uneasiness and such ao un
pleasant chase.

over the inanimate pages of the

magic words “Highly Important, and
very Interesting Intelligence!!” He
throws down the paper with disgust,
& becomes a prey to all the horrors of
