STEALING ONES TINE.

The remark has been made more than onoe
since this great world was set a-rolling, that
"time is precious" II waits for no man. On
singing maidens and lighting men; on flower
gardens and battle-aelds; on joy and sorrew,
hope and despair, woe and hatred, the night
falls, and the sun rises with unsparing rogu-
larity. The minutes arc precious, every one
of them. We cannot afford to let them DRIFT
unheeded by. The current widens and quickens
for eternity's ocean, and we are aAoat. There
is work TO do, aud not more than enough time
to do IL in.
Let sin and shame and sorrow be upon
every one of us who wastes this heavenly
treasure If any mortal be willing to incur
the fearful responsibility of sloth, his be the
settling of the account! But weigAtier and
graver charge is against him who sluanders
the time of others. He is more than a spend
thrift. He is thief. Earthly law cannot
reach him. He is often genteel and respect
able. He wears fine clothes and uses choice
language The fragrant atmosphere of good
reputation surrounds him. His lips distil
honey and breathe melody. He drops gently
in when the muscles are all strained, and the
brow burning with the heat and toll Of the
day. He is delighted to see you. Was pass
ing by and thought he would just see how
you were coming along. Has nothing new
or important-have you? Thinks a great
deal about the weather, and says llhe thinks.
How busy you arel Don't stopl
And then an irregular flrs OF "reminiscences,
reflections, speculaiions, prophecies, and hear
says-aL very sapent and surprising, no
doubt-until the brain reolg, and the nerves
culver, and patience oozes out in great angry
drops Of perspiration, and common courtesy
becomes heroism, and from the troubled soul
goes up sigh for a lodge in some vast wilder
ness, or inaccessible attic, with only one door
and that one bclted on the inside.
We shut up in grated walls those who rot
us Of our money or goods. We knock down
these who rob Us of our reputation, or forever
'eut" and shun them. But we can do nothing
with those who steal our time. We are al
their mercy. Will they not pause on the
threshold, and consider well before they turn
our door-latch?

The prices OF the necessaries of life have
greatly advanced since the war began. Such
q result was TO have been expected by all
sensible persons. Any man of common under
standing must, if he reflects at all, know and
confess that the standard of values which
obtains in time Of general peace and pros
perity cannot tail TO be disturbed, and very
violently disturbed too, by q state of war.
Besides the enormous drain which such
formidable and protracted strife as is now
existing in this country, must make on It's
productive labor and its pecuniary resources,
we have to consider the severe shock which
such condition OF afiairs gives to public con-
fdence in the stability Of all economical intsr-
ests and relations.
The mind Of the community naturally be-
comes alarmed and apprehensive under cir
cumstances OF the kind. No man can tell,
from hour 10 hour, what may happen to affect
uniavOrabiy or otherwise, the national well
fare; and in this attitude of uncertainty, with
the evidences Of the rapid and extensive Auc-
tuations in the financial and commercial cir
cles attracting his attention every moment, he
reasonably demands more for his labor or his
property, in proportion as the demand for both
increase, and the currency in which they are
paid for declines in credit.
1t is therefore unwise, as well as unjust, TO
charge the administration Of government
with those consequences which are the COM
mon and inevitable incidents ofa violent and
long-continued disturbance of the public tran
quilhty. All wars, in all countries and ages,
have caused a general scarcity of the neces-
saries of life; and their cost to the consumer
has always gone uprelatively to the producing
power Of the nation, and the confidence or
want of confidence of the people in the. final
result of the war, or as regards the probable
period Of its pFotractlon.
But If it is unwise and unjust 10 hold an
administration responsible for the ordinary
and usual commercial and financial effects OF
a war which it did not provoke, and has not
purposeIy mismanaged, it is still more injudi-
cious to require that administration to remedy
such effects by direct and special legislation.
We all remember that, not very many months
ago, Mr. CHASE, then Secretary of the Trea-
sury, was asked to suggest or initiate some
measure to regulate the price Of gold, and
thereby control the market value OF all essen
lal articles Of popular necessity aud con =

The peace plank in the Chicago platform
has at last given forth a sound, but it is an
"uncertain sound" PENDLEToN has spoken.
His lips, long sealed, have been permitted 60
utter something, and yet that something
amounts TO little or nothing. NotwithStand-
ing his immense and unyielding peace pro-
Clivities, he has been gently manipulated into
semirecognition or adoption of the
MCCLELLAN letter of acceptance.
He does not say so, TO be sure but the milk
and-water sentences in his letter to JOHN B.
HAsKIN prove that the managers of the
gunboat hero's affairs have succeeded in
weakening the backbone Of GEORGE II. PEN
DIEToN, Esq, candidate for the Vice-Presi-
dency with MCCLELLAN--at least to a GER
tain extent. But it goes against the grain
sorely; and he wants the public to know that
he makes ''no professions of new faith" BY
this we are to understand that the GEORGE
II. PENDLEToN who for three years past has
steadily refused to support the Administration
In its efforts to subdue the Rebellion, is the
same parsonage notD that he 1as then.
His protestations about his regard for the
Union not being excelled by any one, are simply
foolish aud false. II he had said that "tbere is
no one who cherishes greater regard for the
/ Union OF the Southern States in one Con-
federacy," then the people of the North, who
understand hs position as well as he does
himself, would have believed him.
His deprocaton Of the establishment Of
another Government in this country is incon-
sistent with the position which he assumes as
peace man. If the Rebels are granted an
srmistice, and at its close refuse to return to
the Union, what thenS Why, they are to be
allowed the privilege Of departing in peace,
and the Government is thus severed in twain
the right Of secession is acknowledged, and
/ the States Of the Union, whenever they find
/ it convenient, will be at liberty TO repu-
date the General Government, and set
up tor themselves. PENDLETON is not 80
great a fool Us not to know this. The fact is,
his sympathie5 are with the south, though,
under the gui5e of the wolf in a sleeps skin,
be utter5 smooth words, and prattles inno-
Gently OF his love for the Union. The very
fact of his opposition TO exacting any condi-
tiOns from the Rebels "not prescribed in the
| Constitution ought TO be conclusive evil
dencc of his hypocrisy-his double-dealing
with a question which involves the exist
euce Of our Republic. The truth is,
that this letter, ike that of McCLEL-
LAE's, though abounding in extravagant
phrases, laden down with proiessed love for
the country, does not even hint at the one
great issue of the hour-the suppression of an
armed rebellion and the restoration of the
seceded States 70 the Union. The people Of
Che North are not blind; they arc not dumb
aud they have already noted this omission in
! McCLEILAE's letter, and they cannot fail to
note the same omission in that of The very
Honorable GEORGE II. PENDLEroN.

Our citizens have an abundant feast Of rea-
son spread for them tonight. At the Hall Of
the Union League Hon. ThADDEUs STEVENS
aud Hon. LEwIs BANKER will speak. OF the
attractions Of the first-named orator it is un-
necessary for rs 10 say anything. His fame be-
longs to US of Pennsylvania, to the envy of all
other States. Mr.. BARKER is from Maine
and has no equal in the power Of moving
masses of men by his eloquence and manner.
At the hall of the Invincibles (National Hall)
Vice-President HASnIN will deliver an
address.
We trust that all Of these gentlemen will be
welcomed by crowded audiences ofour people.
There is another duty, however, that cannot
be urged with sufficient zeal. 1t is for every
one who feels impelled to hear these speakers
out of sympathy with their views, to take with
him some friend or acquaintance who may not
only be lukewarm in the cause Of the Union,
but have been led astray by the sophstry of
the demagogues who have usurped the places
that were once filed by honest Democratic
leaders who are now in favor of the election
of LINCOLN and JOHNSON.
