Let the Children Sleep.

We earnestly advise that all who
think great deal, who have infrm
health, who are in tronble. or who
have to work hard, to take all the
sleep they can get, without medics'
means.
We caution parents, particularly.
not to allow their children to be wa
ked up of mornings; let nature wake
them mp, she will not do it prema-
turely; but have care that they GO to
bed at an earley hour. let it be earlier
and earlier. until it is found that they
wake up themselves in fall time to
dress for breakfast. Being walked up
early, and allowed to engage in diff
fcult, or any studies. late and Just be
fore retiring. has given many a beau
tiful and promising child brain fever
or determined ordinary ailments to th'
production of water on the brain.
Let parents make every possible eft
fort to have their children 20 to slceI
in a pleasant hnmor. Never scold o.
give lectures, or in any way wound I
child's feelings as it goes to bed. lie
all Danish business and every WORLDLY
care at bedtime. and let sleep come t.
mind at peace with God and all tn
world.

From the Journal of Progress.

From the Journal of Progress.
From the sound of the big guns
shot off in the great fight between the
rival Dictionaries, our attention has
been called to the war of sharp mus
kerry that is raging in our sister State
of Indiana. Indeed it is beginning to
assume an aspect most malign,' and
threatens to mix in political questions.
Our readers may not all be aware
that some time since. Mr.. S. l.. Rugg,
Superintendent of instruction by acci-
dent, and, we suspect, politician by
profession, with the assistance of cer-
tain other State Officers, who together
constitute the State Board of Educa-
cation, sent forth decree to all the
provinces of the kingdom of Hoosier-
dom, commading that Mr.. McGufTey' s
Readers should be thrown out of the
Schools and that Goodrich's should
reign In their stead.
But the teachers OF the various 10.
calities most contumaciously refused
to have Goodrich to reign over them
and clung to the old dynasty. Since
then the fight has grown fast and fu
rious. Some of the newspapers callet
Democratic, think they see in this OBJ
stinate adherence of teachers to book
which they deem the be t, most dia
bolic intent. looking to nothing les,
than the dissolution of our glorious
Union, and smashing up of thing.
generally. They advise as a remedy
in our emergency so dire, the driving
of the rebellions pedagogues from thc
State. or some other Judge-Lyncl
penalty.
We know nothing of the merits o
Goodrich's Readers, but we do know
that McGuffey's are good-and w
furthermore have the impression. tha
if Messrs. Rugg d Co. complete tn
contract they have undertaken, the,
will find it necessary to rise rathe
early in the morning. We understan'
from some live teachers down tha
way, that the schoolmasters of tn
State at large have determined to Sc
the thing through. Success to them
say we. We trust the people, toe
may be On their side.
On the whole, we are rather gla
this war has sprung up. 1t may serv

a correspondent of the New Orleans
Crescent, writing from Brownsville, in
Texas, under date of the 4th, says:
There is considerable talk in this
community about three or four hun
dred negroes said to have been landed
on this coast. within thirty or forty
miles of Brazos Santiago. 1t is posi-
lively asserted to be fact, and l have
no reason to disbelieve it myself. for
the rich farmers in the central districts
of Texas are known to have a large
number of niggers who do not under
stand how to speak the American
tongue; such has been the case for the
last ten years, and the question comes
up: Where do they come from?
have never heard it asserted that a
nigger spoke African natural, no mat
ter where he was born, so | cannot un-
derstand how the lingo is perpetuated
in little, big, old and young niggers,
in certain portions of the State.
think the farmers have an under
ground railroad to Africa, and that
they make up for the niggers that are
run off to Canada and Mexico by fresh
drafts ON Ethiopia. One of the ter
mini of this African railroad is said tc
be marked by a large pine flagstaff,
on Padre Island, and that at certain
times a very small signal light is
swung upon that eleavtion to notify
conductors in the railroad that they
can run in without any danger from
cutters or marshals. AS matter o:
course, all this is commendablc. and
the wonder is that your people are not
profting by the example. You want
labor: and yet, when Christianity and
economy suggest the propriety of fill
ing your wants out of the surplus
which overllows Africa, you refuse to
venture on the requisition. 1t is all
sheer folly to talk about sentiment, for
that is a matter for old grannies to
theorize about. What is the differ
ence between buying a slave in Vir.
ginia, and buying slave in Africa?
In the first instance you probably sep
arate families that have some religion
and some affection, while in Africa
you only save the poor devils from
the most inhuman masters. Ii | was
on the point of buying a nigger to day.
if | consulted humanity, would ten
to one prefer to bring him from Africa
to bringing him from Virginia.

| lars annually from our pockets, anC
sacrificing thousands of lives upon tn
coast of Africa, in that terrible cline
to prevent onr going there to get few
negroes. If it is right for us to 90 Il
Virginia and buy negro and pay
$4,000 for him. it is equally right for
us to go to Africa. where we can ge
them for fifty. Here is the condition
we are placed in, and you may as vel
come to your senses and face the mu
sic.
There are 1000 of our negroes now
down at Key West. begging anc
pleading not to be sent back. If they
should be sent back, what would b,
the result? One half of them would
die before they got there. and the 9th
er half would be turned on the coast o.
Africa-upon the coast of Liberia
among strangers, to be eaten up by
cannibals. or be caught and sold again,
or die of starvation: and this you cal
humanity say it is piracy, | say
that our Government is acting against
right and reason in this mater; and i
the Southern men had the spunk and
spirit to come right mp and face the
North, believe the Northern Democ-
racy at least would come to the true
doctrine Of popular sovereignty and
noa-intervention.
Think of it, two thousand of these
poor barbarians from Africa caught
within the last four weeks, and kept
upon the miserable island of Key West
dying there from disease and starva'
tion; and what do not die are to be
sent back by our Government at an ex.
pense of one or two millions, though
they are begging not to be sent back
and landed upon the coast of Africa
1t is cruel, inhuman, wrong, and / ap.
peal to the good sense Of the American
nation against it. Look at John Bull
he has bound us to catch all we can,
and we send them back at an expense
of twenty five dollars per head. We
send them back, but what does Johr
Bull do when he gets them? He ap'
prentices them out again, and makes
slaves of them. That is the hypocrit
ical treaty that you are bound by, and
yet | hear no Southern voice, or North
ern voice, raised against this aggress
ion upon the law of nature and of ma
ture's God, but | intend to raise my
voice against it, humble as it is.
Now. this may be secondary ques
ton before us tonight. The great
point is harmony and union in The
great Democratic party. Let us whil
the Black Republicans, let us win th'
fight. and when we have settled thes,
things, let us act together and all will
be right.
