An exchange says the New York Herald
is now, in its anti-Radical strategy, urging
the President to general amnesty" for
the "whites who fOolishly ran into rebel
lion - for the 'poor negro whose intellect
is completely unsettled by our quarrel over
him ;" for the ''North, which is heartily
sick Of paying the bills of these Ethiopian
theatricals - for 'our commerce, our sg-
ricultural interests, our progress as peo-
ple."

A distinguished writer has said that ''to
smile upon those we should censure, and
to countenance such as are guilty of bad
actions, is bringing guilt upon OurselvesS
This is a common every day fault of the
great majority of men. How can you ex-
pect to have a commanding public senti-
ment which will conserve the interests of
society by discountenancing vice and
crime, if you shake hands as heartily and
make as much of the lowest and vilest men
as you do of the most honorable and the
best? We remember once TO have seen a
man return to a community, from which he
was sent to tie penitentiary for theft,
where he had served out his time, and not
a whit better than when he left. Yet eve
ry man who met him shook hands and pas
sed the compliments of the day, as if moth
ing else had happened than that he had
been on long journey on some laudable
business. Is not this matter to be mend
ed? Is there not a fault somewhere ?
Some answer others do 50, and they cannot
set themselves up and get into difficulties
to discountenance men whom everybody
else recognize and there is much In the
answer to show that things are very mucl
as they ought not to be. The public sent
ment is all sight in such eases, but few
men are both consistent and brave enough
to cause it to be outspoken. If this were
done, more would be done to discounte
nance dishonor and prevent crime, than i
now done by all the sherifTs, constable, Po
lice and jaiIs in the laad-Nemphis Ledger

Idleness.

Don't be idle It may be better to do
nothing than to do mischief. But it is
difficult feat to be both idle and innocent at
the same time-so difficult as to be rarely
or never accomplished. Let every man
find work and do It. Tt is not only true
law that he who will not work should not
eat, but it is also true that he who lives
idle lives unhappy. The blood of the body
and the life of the soul 'stagnate A man
that is half man feels mean, and, if he
thinks at all, condemns himself. Ifhe feels
that there is anything in him capable Of
coming out, he condemns himself for not
producing it, and he has the pain besides
to know that he is treated with little and
with less respect every day he lives, and
that the self condemnation which he feels
is fully concurred in by all acquainted with
him. To every young man we would say
earnestly. if you would be either respect
ed by others, or happy in the conscious
ness of a share of good desert. work sqgork,
WORK. OF all men under heaven, among
those who care to be respected by others,
the most miserable are those who, from any
causes, or under any circumstances, or on
any reasons or pretexts, find no honorable
employment Every man who will can
find some way to do good and be useful,
and, if he viii 60 about it, he will be com
pensated. He who mopes about and grOans
and laments that he can find no work and
no living, has the sympathy OF nobody
Let him be a man, and if he cannot do
one thing do another. The day laborer is
more honorable and more honored too than
the city loafer. And it is better to be
compelled to the hardest drudgery by pow
erLy than to live an insane and idle life in
the possession of abundance. Every tho
roughly idle man ia a thoroughly wretch
ed one, and such men are more often sui
cides than any other class alive. A gray
haired idler may have a concourse at his
funeral, but he will have no mourners, on
ly such as his wealth may buy or who go
for decency's sake to put away a carcass.
Some think they are not duly appreciated,
and that the world does them injustice
But it is nearer the truth to say that every
man is what he wills to be and makes
himself, and that the verdict of mankind
is about right after all. The public res
pect can be compelled ; and. where that
respect is wanting, it is usually the fault
of the man who would not or did not use
the means in his power to command it.
