Wearing of Flannels.
We extract the following plain and senalole
remarks upon the importance of wearing nan
nels next to the skin, from the work on 1 Bi
ology, recently published by M. la Bonk*, . ■
D„ u Professor in South Carolina College.
There is a very important matter connected
with dress, which I cannot pass over m silence.
I mean the wearing of flannel next the Skin.-
In the minds of many personsthere Ua conmd
erablo prejudice against ’ nn ; n rn than
lato years there is » sounder public opinun than
formerly. I will now state very briefly the ad
vantage of flannel, and give some striking ex
amnles in confirmation. In the first place, it if
a bad conductor of caloric, and tends, tlrrdore,
to prevent the escape o. animal heat. Second
ly ft aids largely in protecting the body against
the Lflm of sudden changes in the weather.
Bv nreventing rapid escape ol the animal heat,
and V the gentle friction of the skin and the
■ slight irritation of the general surface, its t:n
--r dency is to keep up an equible temperature.—
The gentle friction aids in maintaining the cir
culation in the cutaneous vcsse.s, and at the
same time imparts a healthful stimulus to the
nerves. That it contributes no little to these
ends may bo readily perceived observing the
change of temperature and other effects pro
duced on a part subjected to friction by the
hand or in any other way. I know that the
irritation produced by flannel is so great in
some persons that they cannot wear it next the
skin. When it is worn loosely, as it should al
ways be done, this friction must take place to a
considerable extent, in every movement < f he
body. I have to add, as another advantage,
that there is no other material which absorbs
so well the exhalations from the skin, J his
fact very naturally suggests a frequent change
of flannel or its thorough ventilation at night ■
the former, however, is to be preferred.
. Much difference of.opinion exists as to the
time when flannel should be put on and taken
off, ond here I think a great error is often com
mitted. With very many it is a period of se
vere and dangerous trial; with not a few it
should be worn through all the year, and this
is the class of persons who stand most in need
of it. It is a mistake to suppo c that the wear
er of flannel in the hot months necessarily suf
fers more from heat than ethers. I have heard
many persons declare from personal experience
that it is not so, and my own experience is to
the same effect. General'y, a fighter article
most persons conceive it unnecessary to wear it.
throughout the year, and now the question
comes up when should the change of apparel be
made. Boorhaavo, in alluding to the dangers
and difficulties by which the subject is surround
ed, was in the habit of saying that we ought to
put off our winter’s clot'ing on midsummer’s
day and put it on tho day after. Lydeuham
remarks that the giddy practicd of throwing
aside our under garments in the spring and ex
posing our b dies when overheated' to sudden
cold, has destroyed more than famine, pestilence
and the sword. lam sat sfied that a prev - lent
error with us at the South, is to take it off too
soon and put it on too late. Our spring and
autumu are marked by great and sudden changes
and vicissitudes, and particularly the former.—
, Volpey was so struck by the fact, that he says
in the United States there is no Bering. To
persons of feeble constitutions, the transaction
from winter te summer, and aga in from summer
to winter, especially when fluctuating, and
marked by no steady and regular progress, is
extremely trying, aid the greatest caution,
therefore, should be observed at these periods.
I know many of the highest intelligence, who
postpone putting on their flannels to the longest
possible period, believing that it is just so much
gained, and accordingly the winter is fur ad
vanced before it is done. Instead of mischiel
being prevented by a timely r sort to it, the
most serious consequences ere often produced
by this unwise postponement. It is against the
first impressions of cold upon the skin that we
are specially to guard; when the winter has
fairly set in, and the skin has become habitua
ted to it, there is less danger. If I had to
fix a period in our latitude for putting on flan
nels, I would say in September, and for taking
off about the middle of May. Os course these
periods are liable to be effected by circumstan
-068.
I proceed now to give more particularly the
proofs of experience as exhibited in the record
ed testimony of eminent men, who have enjoyed
-the beet opportunities for forming correct opin
ions on the subject. There is such a host of
witnesses from the ranks of physicians and oth
ers, that it would seem almost individuous to
make a selection. I will, however, mention
two or three, assuring the reader that the utili
ty of wearing Hann; 1 next tho skin, is now al
most universally conceded by those who knew
most about the matter, and that it is insisted
upon in the. British army and navy. That the
health of tho soldier is protected by it, alike in
warm as well us in cold climates, is abundantly
proved by Sir James McGregor, Captain
Murray, Sir John Pringle, Sir George Biiliu
gale, Kush, and others. The testimony of Cap
tain Murray, as giv,u by Combe, is very stri
king. Upon his return from a two years' ser
vice among the icebergs of tile coast of Labra
dor, he was ordered to sell immediately for the
West Indies. Having hud great experience oi
the advantages of Himel, he ordered the purser
to draw two extra flannel shirts and drawers
for each man, and instituted a regular daily in
spection to see that they were worn. He car
ried with him a erew of one hundred and fifty
men, visited almost every island in the West
Indies and many of the ports of the Gulf ol
Mexico, and notwithstanding the sudden transi
tion from extreme climates, returned to England
witho it the loss of a man, or having any sick
on board at the time of his arrival.
Kush, in a note to his edition of Pringle,
says that the utility of flannel, worn next the
skin was observed in several instances in the
Revolutionary army of the United Slates. No
one of the officers who was thus clad was indis
posed at the siege of Savannah, and no one es
caped sickness who was not provided with this
internal covering. He remarks further, that
the troops from Wyoming, Pennsylvania, who
wore flannel shirts i ext their skin, were rarely
seen in military hospitals. To this testimony
I will only add, that the most useful class among
us, the Irish laborer, who ditches and drains
our lands, aud performs so much of the hard
work upon our railroads, is clothed throughout
the year with a red flannel shirt, and that when
his habits are not very bad, ho enjoys are
markable exemption from disease.
I would here caution the reader against seed
ing warmth in clothing atone, or by any plan
of artificial heat, and 1 cannot impress too for
cibly the great value and paramount importance
of exercise in the open air, whenever tie state
of tho weather and other circumstances will al
low it It is when the body is in a state of in
action that it is most susceptible of the impres
sions of cold. The effect ot active exercise is
to give tone to the nerves, to quicken the circu
lation, to drive the blood to tire remotest parts
of the system'; in a word to stimulate all the
vital operations, aud elevate the animal temper
ature. From what was said when I had under
consideration tho subject of exercise, the reader
must be satisfied that there cau be no substitute
for it

A True History of the Battle of
Fayal.
By a singular incident the other day a let
ter was discovered to be on file in the depart
ment of State from Chas. W. Dabney, Esq.,
our consul at Fayal, which clears up the con
tested point, which, has been a matter of dispute
between the United Sta’es and Portugal for
over a quarer of a century, as to who first vi
olated tlic neutrailty of that port in the bloody
conflict that took place between the privateer
brig General Armstrong and the boats of a
large British fleet in 1614. The English con
tended that the American brig flrat committed
the assault. The case was referred to the ar
bitration of the Emperor Louis Napoleon, who
decided in favor of England, which released the
responsibility of Portugal. An officer of our
navy, who happened to be at Fayal a year or
two’ ago, was informed by Mr. Dabney that he
was present during tho fight, aud, having seen
that the Emperor of France had decided the
ease against this government, wrote a letter to
the Secretary of State, giving a full account
of all the facte. This information being im.
parted in a*conversation tho other day, led to
the discovery of this important document, which,
as a matter’ of history, will prove of much in
terest to our readers. The plain, manly state,
ment of Mr. Dabney t every word of which is
impressed with truth, throws more light on the
vexed question than all the other documents
that have ever been published. It establishes
the great fact that, the English were the aggres
sors, and the cloud which nung over the histor
ical record of the acts of those gallant men has
been dissipated by the noble act of Dabney, and
the record is restored to its full brilliancy. The
letter is as follows:
[No. 159.]
Consulate of tub U. S. for the Azores,
Fayal, May 21,1853.
Sir: The award of his Majesty Napoleon
111, in the case of the General Armstrong hav
ing just met my eye, I feel impelled, by a regard
for our national honor, as well as justice to the
actors in that unparalleled affair, to disavow,
on their part, the slightest infringement of the
neutrality of this port. The pecuniary amount
is of no consequence to us; but I cannot allow
the brilliancy of that action to lie tarnished,
or the slightest stain to rest on our national es
cutcheon. When I heard that his Majesty was
to be the arbitrator I felt assured that the case
would be thoroughly investigated, and that
there would not be any doubt as to the result;
and I confess that I was sadly disappointed to
find that, from some cause or other, the case bad
not been rightly understood by his Majesty.
In the summer of 1814 the British sloop-of
war ‘'Thais" and brig “Calypso” were cruising
on this station. Their commanders were pru
dent men. When the brigf-of-war“ Carnation”
hove in sight, it was supposed to be the Calyp
so, and no apprehensions were entertained, as
we felt assured that the commander would not
attempt to violate the neutrality of the port.
But when we were informed that a frigate and
a larger vessel were in company, we concluded
that it must be the razee Plantaganet, frigate
Kata, and brig Carnation, under the command
of Mad Lloyd/ (the same that made the sense
less attack’ on Crany Island,) who had that
been here three weeks before and had boasted
that he had boats built expressly for cutting
out American privateers, and that he would
destroy them wherever he found them.
Knowing what we had to expect, I (being
then in my 21st year) was sent by my father
(consul of the United States) to recommend
Captain Reid to slip his cable and warp his
vessel close in under the guns of the castle.—
While I was on board the Carnation anchored
within pistol-shot of the Armstrong, the frigate
about a mile and the razee about a mile distant,
yet under sail, it being calm, and boats were
passing'between the English vessels. Captain
Reid immediately gave orders to carry into ef
fect the advice that I had communicated to
him, and I came on shore; jnst as I was land
ing (ten minutes after I had left the Armstrong)
I heard the report of musketry; and soon after
a Captain Smith, who had gone on board to
see Captain Reid, came on snore with a mes
sage from the latter informing us that while in
the act of warping in he had been approached
by four boats, containing by estimate one hun
dred and twenty men; that they were warned
repeatedly not to approach, or that he would
fire into them, which, instead of heeding, only
seemed to stimulate their exertions, and, as
there could he no mistake of their intention to
take them by surprise, no attention being paid
to the warning, he had ordered his men to fire,
which was immediately returned from the boats,
killing one man, and wounding the first lieu
tenant ; but having found their reception too
warm, they sued for quarter, which was imme
diately grunted, (they were then nearly along
side of the Armstrong,) Captain Smith was
deputed by Capt. Reid to request my father
to take necessary steps ter his protection, and
1 was sent in quest of the governor, whom I
found at Judge Arriaga’s a mile from town.
I was commissioned to request him to remon
strate with Captain Lloyd, (the force under his
command being wholly inadequate to cope
with that of the British squadron.) and to al
low us to send thirty-two American seamen
that we had here to assist in defending the
Armstrong, should she be again attacked. The
latter request the governor said he could not
grant, as it would be an infringement of the neu
trality on his part; but he accompanied mo
forthwith to town, and no time was lost in de
spatching one of his aids with an official re
monstrance. Captain Lloyd returned a verbal
answer, indicative of his intention and three
hours after the grand attack was made on the
Armstrong, then within forty yards of the
Castle.
These simple facts require no comment, as
they admit of no doubt. If there could be any
doubt, the character of the commander is a cir
cumstance of the greatest importance in form
ing a correct opinion of the case.
I send a plan of the harbor, showing the rel
ative position of the Armstrong during the first
and second engagements.
I trust thoJßSpmotive in addressing you on
this occasion whl be appreciated, and, with the
highest consideration and respect, have the hon

I can prove that tho British vice consul, who
was residing on the opposite shore of Pico, sent
a letter on board the Commodore’s vessel two
hours before they anchored ; consequently, there
was no necessity ter ‘ reconnoitering” with four
boats full of armed men.

This book is now for the first time brought

been published but a few weeks, no lesa than ten
editions have been issued. It has also been re
published in Englan I with still greater success.
The London Times and London Observer epch
devote two columns to its rcv.cw.
Says The Christian Journal and Messenger,
Cincinnati:
“The book will secure unhesitating attention
from all quarters—will be universally read in Eu
rope as well us in America, aud we doubt not
will become one of tin most important, if not
the most important, instrumentality in enlighten
ing the world on Mormonism, ami in bringing
to bear upon it that public opinion so necessary
to drive it as un abomination from the earth. It
will rouse particularly tho American people.”
S.iys The Boston Daily Transcript:
"It will rival Maria Monk’s Revelations in the
feeling it is destined to excite. ‘Female Life
Among the Mormons'is no hearsay exposition,
but the conscientious record of an individual ex
