The habit of keeping late hours at right
under any circumstances, except for purposes
of mercy or necessity, is the most direct road
to vice and ruin to body and soul, either Cor
the aged or the young Night is the chosen
season for the Indulgence of ntemperance
gaming, debauchery, and every species of dis.
sipation- 1t is unsafe for any one to txnst
himself or herself to the evil Influences Of
those who keep ate hours. Were it a uni.
versal law, made punishable without benefit
of clergy, that eyeuy man, woman, and child
should retire to bed at 9 o'clock or 10 at far
thest and rise at the crack of day, the world
would be speedily regenerated- A new race
OF human beings would people the earth in
the next generatea. The legion of physical
and mental disorders that now curse the raet
and render life 4 burden, would speedily dis
appear. Drunkenness, gambling, dabauch
cry, idleness, waste aad extravaganza woult
soon be unknown in their worst forms a
least Our women would possess the intelIec
tual, physical and moral vigor of strong men
INV "VuIu NC SIdHIS-
What ruin is being brought upon the lant
by the indulgence low given, to- boys an,
girls to spend late hours from home. What
a deluge of graf and sorrow are parents treas
uring up for themselves by this runiou
trucking to The fashion of the times. gu
upon it! 0ur boys and girls must be KEEP
in at home early after nightfall, if we woul,
have them tohe healthy, wise, sober and viz
tuous men and women.
Give us natures sweet ~restorer, balm,
sleep" but give us the early morn, the swee
fragrance of sarth's shrubs and flowers Will
the dew drop glistens upon them, the mcrr-
notes OF the birds m their e~arliests warbling
give us to catch the first golden beams {
the rising sun, while lowly we bend the kne

reasonable terms to tue owners as they
would like. unless the African Slave
Trade is re-orened. But shall it be,
that the pa!;ry question of the price Of
negroes shall be put in the scales to
weigh against tie Union i? or that a
desire for more negroes direct from
Africa shall operate to destroy the con-
sederacy
What are all the negroes in or out of
America, in or out Of Africa worth,
when compared with the value of n
Republic like oars to the world? How
can any maa who loves his country or
his race. be so selfish as to put plan
taiion OF xesroes against the world, and
swear ,lla. lie will stand by the negroes
if ,he world sinks? lie is not patriot.
but the most utterly selfish Of mor,als
who can think Of such course.
Ii our fathers Of the Revolution had
been SO selfish; If Aey had put sordid
motives before patriotism. We should
never have had our heritage Of free in

We are not defending aggressor,. in
the North. or cxcusins ,hem-sl,ey are
without excuse: but they are po~erless;
and We aim our remarks to those in the
wrong who can accomplish great evil.
But we Lave wandered some dis
tancs from our theme, which was merely
to poin: out the Signs OF the Times.
Without doub. there is deep meaning

Disaster may seem to he upon ~, and

il may prove only apresent chas!ise

We do not for momen. doub, but that

suit in good when the end comes.
A. present the workings Of the gre,t

rious and past finding ou.." bu, there

that these dark hours only harbingrr
