Origin of the Nasis Geog. In
Pulley's Etymological Companion will
be found the following in reference to
the origin of this word: "Admiral Ver
non (the ssme after whom Mor.nt Ver
non was named) was ihe first to require
his men to drink their spirits mixed
with water. In had weather, he wns
in the hahit of walking the deck in a
rough jrbjram cloak, and thenca had
ohtained rJie name of Old Grog, in the
service. :This is the origin of the
name applied to ram and water.
Doy'x GrxiiBLE. He is a fool that
grumbles at every mischance. Tut the
best foot forward, is an old maiim.
Don't run about and tell acquaintances
that vou have been rinfortunate. People
do not like to have unfortunate people
for acquaintances. Add to a vigorous
determination a cheerful spirit; if re
verses come, bear them like a philoso
pher, and get rid of them as soon as
vou can. Poverty is like a panther
1-1 0 ok it earnestly in the face and it
will turn from vou.

ZSZ OF SALT IS TCOD.
Dr. Chambers, of London, in lis
recently published work on Digestion
audits Derangements, savs of cortmDii
salt in food:
"The employment of salt in " the
average healthy state is decidedly Ikjiic
ficial to the human species, and the
use of it as an accessory ailment is
wise in those who are well supplied
with other food. . .
The physiological action of salt in
deed leads us to expect that it must be
hurtful in some cases. Where waste
is already excessive, cr under circitm-
stance3 where the diet is insufficient,
the advantage of salt is a ma;ter of
serious doubt. Where food i3 deficient
in quantity or quality, it is evicienily
improper that any excess of salt shcultl
be used bevond that which if ust.
sumcient to act as a complementary "
ailment; all beyond this increases the '
waste. Encouragement should be given
to employ instead, other rpicy ilavir
inz3 which have not this tonden:v, or
which have even a contrary tendency.
It i3 to be remarked that th ques
tion of the use of salt as an accesHirv
food is by no means the fame as that
of the employment of silted provi
sions; The manufacturing process 0
dries up and hardens the mosctlar
fibre that without dUrren'; cocker?"?:
is insoluble in the gastric juice, and In
point of fact i3 an insufficient natri
ment, a state of things where- it has -been
said salt is improper. When
salted provisions must be used, the
desiratum is a mode of cookery which
would, render the albumen arid brine
azain soluble."
