THE LENGTH OF HUMAN LIFE.

An article in the last number Of Biack,uood's
Magazine, on the above subject, holds out that
the age Of man should be one hundred years in
stead of three score-and-ten. The author says,
" We do not simply die; we kill ourselves. Our
habits, our passions, our anxieties of body and
mind, these shorten our lives, and prevent us
from reaching the natural limit of human ex-
istence." Gluttony, he asserts destroys more
lives than incorporate drinking and yet, I" it is
the fashion to restrict the term so6riety to the
moderate use of liquors. A sober life, no
doubt, implies moderation in all things-in eat
ing, drinking, and in the enjoyment of all the
pleasures of life. But although we have read
and heard much Of moderation in eating and
in drinking, the difficulty has often arisen in
our minds respecting the true standard of mod
grafton. What is it who will define it ! The
standard suitable for one is not for another
No man Gun doubt for q moment the benefits o.
modera tion-temperanc in all things But no
man can or should set up his own standard for
his neighbor. And yet it may truly be said,
that general rules for temperance may be set
down, which, if followed, well be of immense
benefit such as " not to eat 80 much as to un'
ft the mind for its usual exertions; or 50 much
as will make the body heavy and torpid. Nor
to pass hastily from one extreme Of living to
another, but to change slowly and cautiously
to eat plain and wholesome food, and to proper
ton its quantity to the temperament, the age
and strength of the eater. Not to allow the
appetite for food or drink regulate the quantity
to be taken, but experience, void of sensual de-
sire." These rules, if followed, will tend to
promote health, and thus lead to greater
length of days and years in mans existence
still there is natural period for man to exist,
and neither food, drink, nor sobriety can place
him beyond that. We find that each species Of
animal has its boundary of life, and 80 has man.
He has infancy, youth, middle age, old age, and
then comes the winding sheet and the narro,o
house. But how long does his existence last I
how many years encircle his natural life! These

MIDNIGHT SLEEP.

Huferland, in his treatise on sleep, has some
curious well as forcible ideas on the necessity
of devoting midnight to rest and sleep. He
considers that the period of twenty -four hours,
which is produced by the regular revolution Of
the earth on its axis, marks its influence most
definitely on the physical economy of man.
Diseases show this regular influence, in their
daily rise and fall Settled, regular fever ex-
hibits twenty-iour hours hux and reAux. In
the healthful state there is manifest the same
regular influence, and the more habtual our
meals, our hours of exercise and employment,
and our hours of sleep, the more power is there
in the system to resist disease. In the morning
the pulse is slow and the nerves calmer; and
the mind and the body better ftte1 for labor
As we advance towards the evening of the day,
the pulse becomes accelerated, and an almost
feverish state is produced, which in excitable
persons becomes an absolute evening fever Rest
carries of this fever by its Sleep and the refresh
ing opening of the pores which sleep produces.
In this nightly respiration there is an absolute
crisis of this evening fever, and this periodical
crisis is necessary to every one for it carries of
whatever useless or pcrnicious particles our
bodies may have imbibed.
This evening fever, Huferland thinks, is not
enterely owing to the accession of new chyle to
the system, but to the departure of the sun and
Of the heat. The crisis of this fever, to be most
effective by its regularity, ought to take place at
midnight, when the sun is in its nadir. and then
the body becomes refreshed for the early morn
ing labor. Those who neglect those who neg
lect this period either push the diurnal crisis
into the morning, and thus undermine the i'm
portance or its regularity, or lose it entirely,
and arise to their labors unrefreshed by sleep
their bodies will not have been purified by the
nightly crises and the seeds of disease will have
thus been planted -
Nervous people are peculiarly subject to tho
influence Of this evening fever, and think they
cannot labor without its excitement. Hence
their mental efforts are performed in the night
alone; and the important time for the crisis Of
this nervous excitement passes over in wakefal-
ness, and no refreshing perpirstian cleanses the
the body or strengthens the nerves. Such pco-
pie will wear out soon, unless they change their
habits and seek rest when nature and the hu-
man constitution dictate.
These considerations ought to be deeply stnd-
led by all who are in the heruinous habit OF change
ing night into day, and Of changing the func-
tions of each.
A failure of health will soon manifest the
truth of these remarks.--Hsstford Courcat.

THE AFFECTIONS OF HOME.

The heart has some memories that the cares
and troubles Of this life can not obiterate.-
They are the memories of an early and loved
home. There seems to be something in the very
sound that fills the heart with joy. How often,
in after life, will the mind revert back to that
sunny spot where we first knew parents love
and protection. Yes, home has many pleas
ant remembrances. There stands the old shade
tree, with its large, spreading branches, where
we have joined in our childish sports, and it is
here that we have sat by the side of our mother,
on many pleasant evening, and listened to her
instructions, us she taught us of that Being who
had created and watched over US. There, too,
