MDMeHr. -Hufeland, in his treatise on
Gleep, has some curious rs well as tOrcible
ideas on the necessity Of devOting mid
night to rvst and sleep. He considers the
period Of twenty -four hours, which is
produced by the regular revolution Of the
earth upon its axis, marks its influence
most deHmitely on the physical economy
Of man. Diseases show the regular inf1u.
ence in their daily rise and fan. Settled,
regular fever exhibits twenty four hours
hux and reflux. In the healthful state
there 10 manifest the same regular int1u-
ance. and the more habitual our meals.
our hours Of exercise or employment, and
hours Of sleep, the more power is in the
system to resist disease. In the morning
the pulse is slow and the nerves Calner,
and the mind and the body bettcr fitted
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 off this fever by its sleep, and the
refreshing opening of its p res which
sleep produces. In this nightly reSpira-
ton there IL an absolute crisis Of this
evening fever. and this periodical crisis
Is necessary for every Individual, as it
carries off whatever useless or perniciouS
particles our bodies have imbibed. This
evening fever, Hufeland thinks, is not en-
tirely owing to the accession Of new chyle
to the system, but to the departure of the
sun and the light. The crisis Of this fe-
yer, to be most effective by its regularity,
ought to take place at midnight, when the
sun is iu it, nadir and the body will be-
come ref sshed for the early morning la
Dor. Those who neglect this period, eli.
ther push the diurna crisis into the NOR
ming, and thus undermine the importance
Of its regularity, or lose it entirely. and
arise tn their lahors unrefreShed by Sleep
Their bodies will not have been purified
by tho crisis, and the disease will have
thus been planted. Nervous people are
peculiarly subject TO the influence Of this
evening fever, and they think they cannot
labor without it's excitement. Hence
their mental efforts are perfurmed in the
night alone; the important time for the
crisis Of this nervous excitement passes
over in WakefulneSS, and no refreshing
perSpiruti"n cleanses the body or recupe-
rates the nerves. Such people will wear
out soon, unleSs they change their habits
and sock rest when nature and the human
constitution dictate. These considera.
tiOns ought to be deeply studied and re-
garded by all who are in the ruinous hab-
It Of turning night into day, and chang
Ing the functions Of both. A failure OF
health will soon manifest the truth Of
these remarks.

The BEAUrTuL.-Beautiful things are
suggestive of purer and higher life,
and ill US with a mingled love and fear.
They have a graciouSness that wins us,
and an excellence to which we involunta-
rily do reverence. If you are poor, yet
modestly aspiring, keep a vase of flowers
on your table, and they will help to main.
tain your dignity, and secure for you con-
and delicacy of behavior.

The following resolutions were adopted in the
Chicago Canal Convention, June Sd, without
dissenting voice:
The loyal States assembled in National Conyen-
ton at Chicago, DESTROYS of cementing closer the
Union of perpetusting our nationality forever, of
providing for the common defense and promoting
the general welfare of the whole country, adopt
the following resolutions: .#
lSt. That we regard the construction and en-
argement Of the canals between the Mississippi
river and the Atlantic, with canals duly connect
ing the lakes, as of great military aud commercial
Importance. We believe such enlargement or
construction, with dimensions sufficient to pass
gunboats from the Mississippi to Lake Michigan,
and from the Atlantic to and from the great lakes
will furnth the cheapest and most expeditions
means of protecting the Northern frontier, and at
the same time will promote the rapid develop
ment of the Union of our whole country.
I'd. That these works are demanded alike by
military prudence, political wisdom, and the ne
cessities of commerce. Such works will be not
only national but continental and their accom-
pGshment is repaired by every principle of sound
political economy.
3D.. That such national highways between the
Mississippi and the Lakes, as far as practicable,
should be free, without tolls or restr tons, and
we should deprecate the placing of this great
thoroughfare in the hands of any private corpora
tons or State. The work should be accomplished
by the national credit, and as soon as the cost il
, reimbursed to the national Treasury, should be a:
free as the lakes to the commerce of the world.

GERRIT SNITH.-This somewhat celebrated
anti-slavery teacher has recently put himself on
the record as an unconditional Unionist, in
speech which is reported as follows:
" He declared himself in favor of putting
down the rebellion. Some good men wanted
the constitution amended he was satisfied with
it as it was, and would not have it changed in
the least. Some men think the country too
large, and would like to reduce its boundaries
but he liked it, and would not have one rood
taken away-not even South Chrolina. He
would also be in favor of putting down the re-
bellion Internationally, even if he knew that
slavery would come out stronger and more pow
erful than ever. His abolition friends will call
him to task for that remark but he would put
down the rebellion because it is wicked. Put
that down and the country, constitution and the
Union would take care of itself He wanted no
discussions over what would be done with the
rebels or their slaves put down the rebellion,
regardless of that point He did not want to
hear anything about war with European ma
tons put down the rebellion and the country
would take care of that"

make and to which they had rendered for years
unquestionng obedience, and through executive
officers OF their own choice the Folks and Perces,
and Buchanans Of former administrations, had en-
forced throughout all the seaportS of the Republic
And yet, with the most shameless efrontery,
with the most unbushing Impudence, they an
nounced to the world that the Government hay-
ing oppressed them and delrauded them of their
dress ,keir grievances, they arose in their might
to throw off the yoke Of their oppressor, and to
assert ia their own behalf the great truths of the
Declaration of independence. They rebelled
against what they called (" the despotism of Lin
coln," before Mr. Lincoln had started from Spring.
field, and while he was as powerless in the nation
as any one of the two millions of men whose votes
elected him. They levied war on the Republic
while the administration was in the hands of their
servie tools and their conspiring accomplices, and
called themselves an oppressed people endeavor-
ing to separate themselves from the tyranny of
their oppressors, while they controlled the Gov
eminent
And yet, while these are the facts of history, not
few men at the North who know better are con-
tnualy charging that the rebellion is the work Of
abolitonists and republicans, and are work,
ing by every method known to partisan warfare
in more peaceful times, to build up party on this
wicked and malicious lie. Working upon the
fears of the timid, who are ready to escape from
war in any other way than by fighting it out upor
the covetousneSs of the misers who have no prn
ciples except what saves money to their pockets
and upon the miserable cowardice OF those whc
had rather see the country 90 to wreck, than tt
risk hair of their heads n its defence, they hop
to build up party that shall succeed to the con
troll of The Government, make dishonorabe apC
shameful surrender to traitors in arms, and "crook
the pregnant hinges of the knee" to Je
Davis, begging him for love of old friends AM
common plumber, to be pleased to share with ther
the ruins Of the republic. fthey succeed it wi
be proved at last, and forever, that free govern
ment is indeed most lamentabe failure, that
free people have not the stability, the endurance
and the virtue necessary to maintain their nstitu
! tions in the hour of Severest trial.

How the English treat Rebels.

In the just published fourth volume of Massey's
History of England during the Reign Of George
the Third, we find the following account of the
way in which Irish rebels were treated by the En-
glish Government and it's officers
GA part of the Mount Kennedy corps of yeo-
many were, on an autumn night in the year of
1898, patrolliug the village of Delbary, in the
county ofWIcklow. Two or three of the party,
led by Whollaghan, one of their number,
entered the cottage of a laboring man named Do.
herty, and demanded if there were any bloody
rebels there The inmates of the cabin were
Doherty's wife and sick lad, her son, who was
eating his supper. Whollaghan asked if the boy
was Dohertys son and being told that he was,
Then, you dog" said Whollyghan, " you are to
die here" / hope not" answered the poor lad.
And he prayed, if there was any charge against
him, to be taken before Mr.. Latouche, a magis-
trate in the neighborhood, Of known humanity
and justice. The fellow replied that he cared
nothing for Latouche, and raised his gun. The
mother entreated him, for the love of God, to
take her life instead of her child's. Whollaghan,
with volley of abuse, pulled the trigger twice.
but the piece missed fire. A comrade then hand
ed him another gun, and the woman rushed to
Tue muZZle 10 Snlelu DeT sou. III the struggle the
piece went off, and the ball broke young Doher-
TVS arm.
"W When the boy fell, the assassins left the
cabin but Whollaghan returned, and seeing the
lad supported by his mother, cried out, f" Is not
the dog dead yet ?" 90 yes, sir" said the poor
woman, +" he is dead enough" For fear be is
not," said Whoaghan, 4" let him take this" And
with deliberate am he fred fourth time, and
Doherty dropped dead out of his mothers arms.
"Wnoaghan was tried for murder, not by the
civil tribunal, as he should have been, but by
court martial. The facts were not disputed, but
the defence was thatlthe poor boy had been a
! rebel, and that theIprisoner was a humane and
loyal subject. That the Dohertys were rebels is
probable enough as, indeed, it was hardly posi-
bic that a Catholic.peasant should have been any
thing else. But no legal evidence OF the fact was
rendered, and the hearsay which was admitted
was about as credible as the oaths of the Orange.
men who came to give Wholaghan character
for humanity. But The real defence tsas that the
prisoner and his companions had been sent oul

The weather for some time has been drv and
hot and camp life decidedly dull There is still
some discussion about when our time of service
is out Many believe or pretend to believe tina,
we shall be mustered out on the 10th of Jpns
nine months from the time the draft was ordered
The more general opinion is that we shall not ba
mustered out till the 10th of July. If this shall
prove the case it will diSappoint some and make
no small difference about their re-enlistng. Il
might as matter of policy, be well for the Gov.
eminent not to keep troops more than ten o,
eleven months when they only enlist for nine
even though wrong mastering IN would give
them legal right to do SO.
Vermont troops have too good a reputation to
sign any petition and do any other thing that
would seem to indicate that they were begging
off from service which was justly DUE at the same
time they have intelligence enough to perceive
and spirit enough to resent injustice from the
general or state Government. But enough Il
this we shall all know when we cease to be sol.
diers, and can then tell whether we wish to re.en
list. Yours of the
