(ttr Mr. Robert Burns, ton of the Scotch poet, died at hi residence in Hum fries, May 14th, having nearly completed the 71st year of his ago. lie was nearly 10 rears of ago when his father iied.iu 1700. II was an accomplished scholar, had a prodigious memory, and had ncquiiej a great mass of l;nowlg on a largo range bf subject. He possessed considerable po eljcal talent, and in earlier days lie in,a. posed verses of cousiJernMit merit. U remain would be laid with those of hi f.ithrr in tho mausoleum, St. Michael's churchyard. ruuuuiv or Worlds. A writer ia the Edinbur luviar, says that the idea of the plurality of worlds has been gradu ally developed, till men have come to be lieve that not only the pluu u, but also l ho shining stars of the boundless firmament, in all their countless myriad, must be teat both ef lifo and of sentient intelligence, capable of enjoying and employing its fac ulties and attributes. Modern astronomy Las alsegoneeut far beyond the boundary of the star fiiiium&nt, and tlirro it has des cried lying in immeasurable distauc, faint deflnito clouds of filmy I'Vlit, which, even to good tclcssoj.es, look, as tlejr float ja the chsm of darkness like whispt of pale phosphorescent mU, At first these ware taken lo be the vnperoae cornels of the remote universe, and tlity were caiieu "ne'juh''," by their discevercm. In pro cess of lime, however, a the construction of the lolekcepo was rendered more per fect, it wae found that some of ihee light oloupe wr really cloud of stars. (fr Habit uniformly anJ cotmtanlly strengthen all our active exertion ; what ever we do often, we become mote and more apt to t, A snuJ Inker begina with a piaeh of attiiir per day, and end with a pound or two evry month. Swearing be gin In anger; it ends by mingling itmlf with ordinary conversation. Such instan ce are of loo common notoriety to ued that they be nJJuccd ; but, as I before ob served, at the very lime that the tendency to do the thing is increasing, the loture resulting from it is, by the blunted sensi bility of the bodily organ, dimiuUhcd ; and the diYiro ! Irresistible, though the gratification it nothing. There Is rather an nt rlainiug example of this In Field ing' " Life f Jonathan Wild," in that scene where he is represented as playing at card with the Count, a professional gam bler. "Such" say i Mr. Fielding, " was the power of habit over the mind of thee illustrious person, that Mr. "Wild could not keep hi hands out of the Count' pockets, though ho knew they were empty ; nor could tho Count abstain from palming card, though he was well aware Mr. Wild had do money to pay him," 03" To everything benenth the sun there comes n hut day. Let the sanguino then take warning, and the disheartened lake courage; for every joy and every sorrow, to every hope nnd every fear, (here wi come a Irwt day ; and man ought so to lire by foresight, that whilo he k-nrns in every state to be content, he shall in each bo pre pared for nuothor, whatever tho other may be. If we ace an acorn, we expect that it will produce an oak ; when wo plant a vine, we calculate on gathering grapes; but when wo lay a plan for years to come, we may wish, and wo can do no more, ex cept pray thut it may bo accomplished, for we know not whut to-morro'-v may bring forth. All that wo do know beforehand of nnything U, thut to everything beneath the sun there comes n lastsend. Tim Virtue of G:ioa.mno. 'A lengthy dissertation has lately been published by a French physician, on the beneficial influ ence of crying nnd geenning on the nervous system. It is contended by the author thai groaning and crying are the two grand op erations by which nature allays nuguLih that he has uniformly observed that those patients who give way to their natural feel ings moro speedily recover from accidents and operations, than those who suppose it is unworthy in a man to show such symp toms of cowardice as either lo groan or cry. He is always pleased by ihe crying nnd violent roaring ef a patient during the time he ia undergoing a severo operation, becati a ho is satisfied that ha will thereby soothe his nervous syaton so as to prevent frver, nnd ensure a favorable termination. Us relates tho en so of a man who, by cry ing and bawling, reduced his pulso from 12(5 to GO in the course of two houna. The author also says that restless and hypo chondriacal subjects cannot do better than lo groan all day and cry all night. Cou.nterui.ast to ToDACco.Mr. Solly, the eminent writer on the brain, says, in a late clinical lecture on that frightful and formidable malady, softening of the brain, " I would caution you, as students, front excesses in the uso of tobacco and smok ing, nnd I would adviso you to disabuse your patients' minds of tho idea thut it is harmless. I have had a largo experi ence of brain disease, nnd I am satisfied now thut smoking is n most noxious habit. I know of no other cause or ugent that tends so much to, bring on functional dis ease, and through this, in the end, to load to orgnqio diseaso3 of thu brain, as exces sive uso of tobacco."
