New Years Day.

This is the first of January and'is by com.
mon consent allowed to represent the be.
ginning of New Year. "The Year." is in
the language of a highly respectable iexi.
cographer. "the space OF time in which the
sun moves through the twelve signs of the
elliptic or solar circle, and returns to the
same point" We furthermore learn by
perusal of DaboR and Comsteck, that the
year consists of three hundred and sixty.
five days, five hours and forty mine and sew
en- tenths seconds. This combination of
days, hours. minutes and seconds. has lust
commenced, and will doubtless continue un.
til twelve o'clock. ?. NJ, on the thirty-f
day of December, 1858 During this period
or space OF time, great deal of unnecessary
labor will be spent, and much rain, sunshine
and snow will be seen and felt 1t is proper
in consideration of these facts and many
! others which we might mention, that we
! should tell our readers how to conduct them
selves, but believing them to be men, womea
and children of like passions as we possess,
we shall refrain from any sach lecture,
thinking that they can most undubitably 90
it alone, and if they cannot, they had better
sell out to somebody who can. A great ma
ny persons will object to our exposure of
their weaknesses, but in justice to the occa-
sion, and to the position which we occupy.
we feel bound to state that in our belief,
several hundred persons will "swear off"
from drinking whisky to-day, for the space
of one year; and that they will also re-
nounce the use Of tobacco aud various other
vices, and that before their time is up they
