citizens, many of whom have frieuds a

from nine to sixteen dollars per day a
a point osly seventy miles from Ft. Lar
annie, and about six hundred and fifty
miles from this place, and hundreds are
preparing 10 go to the disgins. They
will take the North Platte route as be-
ing the nearest and best route. Fifty
thousand dollars has been spent upon the
Military road from ON aha up the Platte
river, all the streams running into it OF
the north. side have been bridged, and
the road is now in good repair. The
Western Stage Company we are inform
ed, will put number of coaches upon
this route in a few days, by which the
Miners will be able to 60 from this place
to the diggins, in about ten days.
Persons residing in Ohio. Indiana, Ill
inois and other States east of Iowa, wish
ing to make quick trip to the diggins
would accomplish their object by taking
a passage on the Railroad leading tc
Davenport or Burlington, in this State,
thence by the Western Stage Company's
Stages to this city, and thence via the
North Platte route to the diggins; OF
from Davenport to Iowa City by Rail
road, and thence by the Western Stage
Company's Coaches, via Des Moine:
City, to Council Bluffs, and thence uI
the North Platte. By either of the
above routes, the diggins can be reach
ed from the city of New York in twenty
days! A glance at the Map of the coun,

acquaintances. 1t grew out Of political
bantering in the bar-room of the Bank

day. On the ground Johnston won the
word and place, and had the wind in his
favor, and Ferguson won the choice of
pistols. Distance ten PAGES. At the
first fire both pistols were discharged
simultaneously, but neither party was
hit. Second fire. distance shortened TO

An ACCOUNTABLE FAsHIoN-Friend
Pomeroy, of the Horizon argus makes
some very sensible remarks on the mad
fashion which has seized men, women
and children of late, of cutting all the
hair off their heads. If to excel is the
aim of the ladies, we say go ahead; you
will have TO adopt the skinning process
next, or "cave."
"Not long since the young gsters adopt.
ed the fashion Of wearing their hair short,
when to show their love of the style,
presto. but the young ladies adopted the
latest touch with zeal worthy better
cause. Half of the fair misses are now
sporting their short hair, looking very
awkward. to our eye. The young men
swear they will shave their heads, but
what they will be ahead. II they do,
we will bet pair of garters that the la
dies will skin theirs, but what they take
the lead. There is trouble brewing
Boys, you can't win no how, On long
hair they can beat US, and on short, they
can cut it as short as we can. Let's

heads together and satisfy all parties

TO pull them out of bed as soon as their
eyes were open, nor is it best for the stu
dious, or even for the well, who have
passed an unusuall yfatiguing day, to jump
out of bed as soon as they wake up: let
them remain, without going to sleep,
again, until the sense of WEAKNESS passes
from the limbs. Nature abhors two
things: violence and vacuum. The
sun does not break out at once into the
glare of the meridian. The diurnal
flowers unfold themselves by slow de-
grees; nor feetest beast, nor sprighliest
bird, leap at once from its resting place.
By all of which we mean TO say, that as
no physiological truth is more demon
strable, than that the braia, and with it
The whole nervous system, is recuperated
by sleep, it is of the first Importance, as
to the weE being of the human system,
that it have its fullest measure of it; and
10 that end, the habit of retiring to bed
early should be made imperative on all
children, and no ordinary event should
be allowed to interfere with it. Its NOR
al heallhfullness is not less important
than its physical. Many young man,
and many young woman, has made the
first step towards degradation, and crime,
and disease, after ten o'clock at night;
at which hour, the year round, the old,
and middle-aged, and the young, should
be in bed; and then the early rising will
take care of itself, with the incalculable
accompaniment Ofa fully rested body and
renovated brain. We repeat it, there
is neither wisdom, nor safety, nor health,
in early rising in itself; but there is in
all of them in the persistent practice of
retiring to bed at an early hour, winter
or summer.

EARLY RISING.

HERE is the word from DR.. HALL, on
the subject of getting sleep enough:
Health and long life are almost uni
versaIly associated with early rising; and
we are pointed TO countless old people, as
evidence of lis good effects on the gener-
al system. Can any of our readers, on
the spur of the moment, give good and
conclusive reason why health should be
attributed 10 this habitl We know thai
old people ge, up early; but it is simply
because they can't sleep. Moderate old
age does not require much sleep; hence,
in The aged, early rising is necessity, or
a convenience, and is not a cause of
health in itself. There is large class
of early risers, very early risers, who
may be very truly said not to have a
days health in year-ihe thirsty folk
for example. who drink liquor till mid
night, and rise early 10 get more! One
of our earliest recollections is, that OF
s.old soakers" making their "devious
way" to the grogshop or the tavern bar
room. before sunrise, for their morning
grog. Early rising. TO be beneficial,
must have two comcomitants: 10 retire
early, and on rising, to be properly en-
ployed. One of The most eminent divines
in this country rose by daylight for
many years, and at the end of that time
became an invalid-has travelled the
world over for health, and has never re-
gained it, nor never will. Ii is rather
al early retiring that does the good, by
keeping people out of those mischievous
practices which darkness favors, and
which need not here be more particular
ly referred to.
Another important advantage of retir-
ing early is, that the intense stiffness o.
midnight and the early morning hours
favor that unbroken repose which is The
Tasil-powerful renovator of the tired sys.
tenn Without then, the accompani.
ment of retiring early, 'early rising" is
worse than useless, and is positively
mischievous. Every person should be
allowed to shave his sleep OUT" other
wise, the duties of the day cannot be
properly performed, will be necessarily
slighied. even by the most conscientious.
To all young persons, 10 students, tc
the sedentary, and to invalids, the fnlles
sleep that the system takes without arti.
fetal means, is the balm of life-with-
out il there can be no restoration Il
health and activity again. Never wake
up the sick or infrm, or young children
of a morning-it is barbarity; let them
wake oflhemselves, let the care rather be
to establish an hour for retiring, so early,
that their fullest sleep may be out before
sunrise.
Another item of very great impor-
ianee is: Do not hurry up the young
and the weakly. 1t is of no advantage
