Luxuries Durin gWar.

bune makes the following sensible re-
marks on the great sin of the day-the
mania of the America for costly luxu-
ries, and speculation. We recommend
the movement here spoken of to the
consideration of our readers:
A movement in the right direction
has been inaugurated in Washington,
New York and Philadelphia, in which
the ladies are the movers. It's aim is
to repress the prevailing extravaganza
of the times and the special measure
resorted to is refusal to purchase goods
of foreign manufacture during the war;
especially costly articles Of luxury,
such as jewels, costly silks, and ether
fnery. The movement is participated
in by the ladies, whose position entities
them to respect and influence and we
hope their example may be contagious,
and that it may spread through the
country
In the beginning Of the war we we're
told from the pulpit, that one Of our
national vices which needed correction,
was extravaganza, and that the displeas-
ure Of heaven rested upon us on this
account. If it was true then, it is doubly
true now. If it was mistake then, it
does not follow that it's assertion would
be so now. Americans are always in
clined to over-dress and never, surely,
did the tendency so run riot as during
this war.
But the truth is, not the wearers Of
dry goods alone rush into extravaganza.
Trade in all its departments is running
wild. The disposition to speculate has
seized upon all classes of dealers. We
have speculation in stocks, money, dry
goods, groceries, breadstuffs, meats, pro-
visions, and truck Of every sort. Beef
Cattle are bringing more than two prices.
Sugars go up as often as the sun does.
Hens can no longer lay without twice
the former compensation. a
Now this is not the result Of any ne
cessity whatever. Beyond 2 moderate
margin, it is the result Of speculations,
and in some cases of combination to
speculate. There is no reason why but
ter should cost 40 to so cents per ponnd;
eggs 20 or even Is cents per dozen
or coffee, sugars 25to II cents. A spe-
cies of insanity is having its run, and if
the public give way to it, there is no
knowing where it will stop.
The remedy is obvious. Let the con-
suming public set their faces like flint
against it. Let them refuse to eat but
ter at fifty cents, and butter will come
down. Let economy be restored to it's
place among the virtues, and the prices
of necessary articles will adjust them
selves to reasonable scale. But there
is class of articles which ought to be
stunned altogether while the nation is
at war Costly silks. brandies, jewels
and foreign fnery of every kind can be
dispensed with, and it is grevious i'm
propriety to send our gold abroad to buy
them at the expense of the national
credit 1t is slur upon the men de-
nying themselves ali but rations of salt
meat and hard tack in the field to put
down the rebellion, that another set
of the people shall roll in luxury the
meanwhile Let loyal and conscien-
tiops people take these things into con-
sideration, and the remedy will at once
suggest itself.

have also had it set to music and publ ished in sheet

Father, dear father, come home with me

The clock in the steeple strikes one;
You said you were coming right home

worse
But he has been crying for you.
Indeed he is worse-Ma says he will die,
Perhaps before morning shall dawn
And this is the message she sent me to
bring
Come quickly, or he will be gone"
Come home &c.
Father, dear father, come home with me

For poor weeping mother and me.
Yes, we are alone-poor Benny is dead,
And gone with the angels of light;
And these were the very last words that he
