the man who invented sleep" True /;
though it is one of the greatest blessings be-
slowed upon us, whereby we are enabled to
regain our energies after the fatiguing ex-
ercies of the day, or perhaps the night yet
it is gift that is and can be abused, by too
much Indulgence, or too little, and by re-
versing the designs of misunderstanding day
into night-in consequence of which the
body loses its vigor, and the mind becomes
injured. Nature's laws are not to be trihed
with. They arc perfect. Unvarying obe-
dience to her teachings is the best policy
Some, from popularity of temperament,
require more sleep than others. But we
think there is no law which demands that
the night should be turned to the uses of the
day, and the day proper, or a great portion
of it, passed in sleep. Such is undoubtedly
contrary to Nature intentions. There are
vocations which require night work but
however this may be, the only justification
to be found is in the necessity of the case
No physical good is derived therefrom. -
Night is allotted to sleep-Day to labor. -
All those who fail to regard these demands
now, will surely regret it in the future. To
the youthful are these remarks applicable.
CALVES. 1t is highly proper for every
person to honor the dead, especially the dis
tinguished dead, and to discountenance as
sassinatlons and personal violence, no matter
by or on whom committed A most horrid
crime caused the death of our late President.
and it is christian-like in every citizen to de-
nounce it, to forget the faults of Mr., LIN
COLIN and remember only his virtues. And
we would give him especial praise for his
recently adopted policy of conciliation to-
ward the erring people of the South; a
policy that would soon lead to peace and
Union throughout the length and bredth of
the land. But we think there is consider
able "calf'' in the composition of those who
take back all they have ever said against
his administration and virtually admit that
they were wrong in denouncing arbitrary
arrests, protesting against bastiles and OBJ
jectng to usurpations. We do not wish to
name any of our exchanges in this connec-
ton, but we would respectfully ask some of
them to consider these things We have
not forgotten VALLANDIGIIAM and thous-
ands of others.
THE l02D REGIMENT. 1t is to be feared
the paroled soldiers of the l02d Regiment
suffered severely by thcrecent disaster to the
Sultana. The following is list of those
said to have been on board and belonging to
companies A and g:
COMPANY A-Ezra Crawford, G.. W.
Gard, Wesley Henderson, George Hass, ii.
Haily, George Hall, Leander Merchand,
Wesley Lee, Joseph Poto, Paul Il. Peckha
b. f. Wade and Miles Wells.
COMPANY G.-Squire Frazear, David
Hites, Dixon W. Jo hns, Simeon p. Price,
Jacob S, Rose, Lucius Remington, Ezra
X. Slegle, John Shrader, Samuel Stephens,
W. w. Teeters, John Ii. Williams and
Elijah Wallick. -
A few of the above were at hospitals this
side of where the explosion took place, and
it is pretty certain they were not on the boat.
John H. Williams died before the explosion
took place. We have report, which is no
doubt true, that II. Haily and David Hites
are safe. Many others may be safe, 1t is
barely possible that all may have escaped,
But we fear many of the number have seen
the last of earth.
