No. 4. Vocal Music condaces to Health.

It was the opinion ofDr. Rush, that singing by young ladies, whom the customs of society dchar from many other kinds of healthy cxer- cise, is to be cultivated, not only as an accom- plishment. but as a means of prcscrvinglicalth.

lc particularly insists, that vocal music should never be neglected in the education of it 'oung lady; and states. that besides its sa utary operation in soothing the cares of domestic life, it has a still more direct and important c cct. “I here introduce it fact," says the jdoctor, *‘ which has been suggested tome by |!ll_V profession, that is, the cxcrciso of tho gorgaiis of the roast by singing. contributes I very much to defend theiu from those diseases, lto whi h the climate and other causes expo.-c l them."

:amongst them, this l believe is in part occa- lsioncd by the strength which their lungs ac- 'quire by exercising them frequently in vocal music, which constitutes an essential branch of their education. “ The music master of our academy" says Gardiner, “has furnished me with an observation still more in favour of this opinion. He informs me, that he had known several instances of persons strongly disposed to consumption. restored to licalti by the ex- ercise of the lungs in singing In the new establishment of infant schools for children of three or four cars ofage, every thing is taught by the aid ofysong. Their little lessons, their recitations, their arithmetical countings, are all chanted; and as they feel the importance of their own voices when joining together, they emulate each other in the power of vocifcrating. This exercise is:found to be very beneﬁcial to their health.

Sir,——ln a late communication l endeavoured to show the necessity of sanitary improvement, which is not disputed even by those whose an- tiquated notions. and absurd conclusions, lead thi-m to look with suspicion and doubt on the introduction of‘ steam. water, gas, and other improvements, as iiiovations on the good old rules that governed and served their great ;_:randl'atliers in days gone by. Now, sir, as the above iuiprovcmciits are as sure to follow the agitation of’ them, as that the sun will rise to- lllIil‘l'()W, let. us see how they are to be accom- plished. In the first plaice let us have it. well di-.;v-stcd Act ofincorporation stripped ol all the trappings and gcw-gaws of ii.

These are iin rovcuicnts which as 5

matter of course must )0 carried out, if we are desirous of keeping pace with the neighbour- ing provinces, many of which are less favoured by nature, and are in some respects not a whit more able to nccoin list: the above objects than the people of Char ottctown arc. Let us look for ii moment at what Quebec, St. John N. B.

Two Piuzt:s.—'l‘he Paris Academy of Sciences have kept, since I819, a standard offer of a prize of one hundred thousand francs, for a prescription which would, “in an immense majority of cases," cure the Cholera. At the sitting of the Academy, in December last, multitudes of communi- cations respecting the disease were received, but the report was “that not one of them deserved serious attention.” This prize will now be given for it positive, certain indication of the causes ofthe Asiatic chol- era, so that, by the removal of them, it should disappear; or for the discovery of 3 pr:iphyl:ictic (a sure previ-ntive,) such as vaccination is for the sm:-llpnx.
