Keep Moving.


1t was, we believe, the historian Merivale
who said, Humanity. like running water, has
q tendency to purify itself by action" The
remark is made apropos Of those widespread
activities, those great national impulses which
pervading vast bodies of the people, have been
the regularly recurring waves of that tide on
which the race has lifted itself even higher and
higher in civilization and happiness. But it is
a truth equally applicable to individuals. 1t
is by effort, by action, that we grow better
wiser, stronger in this world, and for the sim
pie reason, that without effort, without ac
tion we die. If single organ in our COM
pick and wondrous frames ceases to act, from
that moment it commences to perish. Only
by constant and vigorous exercise can any fac
ulty of ours be kept from deterioration. If
you would not grow into the condition of
stagnant pool, keep moving. Inaction is death /;
action is life, and the remover of life. Work,
work with hands, and heart, and brain, for SO
only can you keep the hand strong and cun-
ming, the heart warm and kindly, the brain
quick and clear Modern science has discover
ed that what we call the physical forces, light,
heat, electricity &C.. are simply farms Of mo-
ton. We believe the same could be demon
strated of all mental aud spiritual forces
Not. however, to go too deeply into first prin-
ciples, it is certain that no one can know hlm-
self possessed 0f'a faculty or talent, till he
has tried to transform it into motion, to put it

Since, then, work Is for us the law Of all
growth and all achievement, and since God has
placed us in world where there is so much to
do, it is not only our ruin but our disgrace If
we refuse to do it. Everything sets US the ex-
ample. Air, earth, FIRE, and water are work.
ing. Every tree that lifts its branches heaven
ward, every bird that sings in its shelter, every
flower that blooms, every balmy breeze, and
rippling brook, and white cloud floating in the
still blue sky, is working at its appointed task
Only man, who claims to be the noblest Of
Gods creatures, ever neglects the task or
abuses the powers which the loving Father
has assigned him.

THE GREAT PETROLEUM INTEREsT.--The
reports of the enormous profits drriyed are al
most fabulous, and il the statements we're not
youched for by gentlemen of the highest in
tegrily, we should regard them as utter I'M
possibilities. One Company, the Columbia, OF
Pittsburg, has realized $54 800 on an invest
ment of $1,000, in the short space of eighteen
months! Companies are still forming with
prospects considered equally as good as those
OF the Columbia. AS a source of wealth it is
beyond calculation. It's expectation, at the
present rate of increase, will shortly equal our
largest staples, while it cannot be long ere
this sebaeeoHs monarch win wear the crown
of dethroned cotton, and Petroleum eeilt be
Kingl
For thepurpose ofaffording every body an
opportunity to participate in the great benefits
OF these enterprises, a Petroleum EXCHANGE
has been established In Boston by Messrs.
Lombard, Gore d Mendam, at 90 State street.
where reliable and full information may be OBJ
tanned concerning all the different Companies
in operation, and in process of formation, with
a faithful and impartial statement of their con-
dition and prospects, They are gentlemen of
the highest standing, and are fully endorsed
by the leading merchants and bankers of Bos-
ton as reliable and Trustworthy No invest
rnent offers such returns as the sound Petrole
um Companies, and the Exchange Is designed
to aid capitalists and others in a iudicious SCI
lection. Their advertisement, in another col
umn, explains ITSELF to which we direct the at
tention of all who are interested in this new
source of wealth.

Gen. Butler on conscientious Soruples.
The following letter was written by General
Butler in reply to requestfor the suspension
Of an order requiring certain persons to take
the oath OF allegiance. 1t shows that be knows.
how to deal with rebellion with his pen, what
ever may be his qualities with the sword:
Headquarters Department of Va. and N.
c. Army. or Tie James, in the Field, Va, Jan.
2, 1865.
Sir: have the honor to. acknowledge the
receipt oil your communication in relation to
the cases Of Conscience in certain people at
Eastville, as therein set forth, who have con-
scientious scruples against taking the oath of
allegiance to the United States. ~ ~ ~ Ef
Ii their objection is to taking an oath. then
they may be admitted to their solemn affirma-
ton; but DO not understand you to put your
cases upon that ground, but that they have re-
latives and friends at the South, and they
think it would be perjury to take the oath be-
cause OF their relations.
lido not understand their reasoning. II they
are well disposed and loyal to the United
States government, it is 10 matter what their
relatives are. Ii they are not well disposed
towards the United States government, then
they have no business to live under that gov
ernment, and should go to some country to
whose government they are well disposed
There 10 neither conscience nor honesty in liv-
ing under government to which they are
hostile, receiving the benefit of its protection
and laws and returning no equivalent.
You say one of them is divinity student
and desires to go to Pennsylvania Theoogi-
| cal Seminary. To his case answer that he
had better make himself more thoroughly ac-
| quainted with his duties under human law be-
fore he studies the divine law.
You say that another is a young lady teach
ing school. If she is SO blind to her own du-
ties to her country, she is not fit teacher of
| others.
Your other case is of three young men, who
| have been entreated by their father, with tears
| In his eyes, to take the oath OF allegiance to
their county. If their respect for their faith
err, If their duty to their country, and their OBJ
legations to its laws will not conquer their love
OF secession, they will be sent to Secessia.
You urge, as q reason why the orders OF the
| department should not he enforced, that many
martyr has gone to the stake fes conscience
sake. 70 that, l answer that manya Hlndoo
| widow has burned herselfon her husbands flu
neral pile; but that by no means proves that
woman burning Is highly meritorious, moral
and religions act, and, were in command in
/ Hindostan, should feel it my duty TO in
terlere with such exhibitions OF Hindoo con-
science, precisely as am compelled to do with
the exhibitions you speak of, of secession con-
1 science. 81 k&n8teeoAGAa Els a881t
will forward this communication, unseal-
ed, to the Provost Marshal at Eastyille, with
directions that these parties either take the
oath of allegiance or be sent through the lines
