What Breaks Down Young Men.

1t is commonly received notion
that hard study is the unhealthy ele
ment Of college life. But from Ia
bles of the mortality Of Harvard Uni
versity, collected by Professor Pierce
from the last tricnnial catalogue, it is
clearly demonstrated that the excess
of deaths for the first ten years after
graduation, is found in that portion
OF eal class inferior in scholarship.
Every one who has been through the
curriculum knows that where Esch>

Starvation in Algeria Hundred
Thousand Deaths.

A letter from Paris, dated Jan. 5th,
says:
The poorer classes are now under
going tremendous sufferings, not
only in France, but in Algeria. In
that colony, according to the Arch>
bishop Of Algiers, the Arab popula
ton are dragging out an existence of
misery-teeding like animals, on the
foliage of trees, wandering almost
naked (writes Monseigneur) along
the roads, awaiting in the neigh Dor
hood of cities and villages for the
emptying of household refuse, to
quarrel over the filthy remains. To
these starving, nay dying tribes,
nothing that can be devoured is re-
pulsive. So desperate is their condi>
ton Ct translate the Arcbbishop's
Words that, "they actually dig up
cal casses of animals that have died
Of disease. A heap of ten and twelve
bodies OF dead Arabs lying by the
roadside is no uncommon spectacle.

This 10 name of secret rebel
or organization in Tennessee. Its pur>
pose is to rim the country of Radicals
aud negroes, and it uses such mild
and persuasive arguments as assassin
alton, foragings, mobs, tar and feath-
ers. One of its innocent diversions
is that of Selling upon persons whom
it suspects of being Republicans, but
has no direct proof, tying them to
trees and whipping them nearly to
death. They have taken possession
of Giles and Murray counties, on the
boundary line of the State, and are
organizing reign of terror. Gov.

Cider Prescribed.

The G. w. G. Of the State has is
sued the following instructions in
in reference to the ''cider question"
Whatever may or may not be the
harm of drinking cider, that argu-
ment can not have any weight with
q true Good Templar, Members of
the Order pledge themselves not to
drink it, and that is all there is of
the question, so far as they are con-
cerned. After taking the oath it is
too late TO argue the effect Of the
beverage The following is the in
struction referred to-
For two years past our lodges have
bad very little trouble with the sweet
cider question, Tho principle has
been considered in order that the
use of sweet cider was a violation of
our obligation. All at once there
seems to be y mania for drinking
"apple juice" and in about a score
of lodges there is trouble, and in
some defiance of our welI-settled
rule. Several lodges are just ready
to go TO pieces over this question !;
and | am urged by many of our
earnest brothers to consent that such
violations be passed over lightly "to
save the lodge" The decision of
the annual session was, that sit is q
violation of our obligation to drink,
use, or sell sweet cider" The Order
is governed by this rule. 1t cannot
be relaxed, and it must be enforced
in our lodges"
REMARKs.-If it be right TO pro-
scribe hops, of which in part beer is
made, it must surely be right to pro
scribe cider. But why not prescribe
apples, also largely used for making
cider and of which cider is exclusively
made. And why not for equally
just reasons prescribe apple trees as
we'll as hop vines, and also grape
vines and grapes, currant bushes and
currants. all these being largely used
for making drinks that intoxicate.-
But what's the use to reason There
is not one of Natures products from
which evils may not flow, yet there
are those who would prescribe any
or all, the best as the vilest.

General Grant.

The lesson of Grants life is that,
wherever we are placed, we are dos
ing our highest and best political
work when we are doing the work
nearest at hand and to which we
have been specially assigned that
there is no such servant of the coun-
try as he who keeps his mind steadily
fixed on what he knows to DO his
business. Whom Grant took com :
mand of a regiment at tho outbreak
of the war, be did nothing but com>
comd it to the best of his ability
When he got command Of an army,
he did nothing and thought of noth~
ing but commanding an armv.-
When he was made commandment
chief, be gave his mind to the duties
of that office, and nothing else He
kept his gaze fixed on his books. pa
pers, and reports. instead of taking
surveys of the country and the world,
or getting up views" on reconstruc-
ton or universal suffrage. Being q
soldier, he tried to be the best kind
of soldier simply, and not mons
grel politician with newspapers doc
uments and drafts of speeches stick
ing out Of the pockets OF uniform
coat. What temptations an Ameri>
can soldier has to resist who pursues
this course, we may infer from the
example ofGcn Mcclellan; when that
unlucky person found himself driven
back on Harrison's Landing, after
those awful Gays of July, 1862. with
an army perishing by inches in his
bands, the nation looking on in az
ony, and the world in suspense, with
every inducement that ever was APP
piled to human being urging him
to concentrate all his faculties on the
dreadful game before him, he retired
to his tent and wrote out, for MIR.
Lincoln's ediication, his "views" too,
with which he had been crammed n
month previously by Now York pol>
iticians. 1t was one of the most In =
dicrous incidents in military history,
but there was nevertheless something
very pathetic about it. 1t meant not
that he willfully neglected his own
work to NEEDLE in other peoples but
that, being weak Drained and over
marched, he turned readily for relief
to ono of the commonest indulgences
of the day. 1t was so pleasant and
easy to show Mr.. Lincoln on paper
how to govern the country at large !;
so hard to withstand the terrible Lee
and rebels on the other side of the
hill. And he made his account by it.
A large portion of the public hailed
it as a lucky stroke, and the Harri-

Touching Incident of the War.


Gen. b. Fisk uarrates the follow
ing instance of sublime Christian de
votion
remember one old lady in Illinois,
how she gave all she had to the cause
OF the nation. When the call for
troops came in 1861, when Massa>
chusetts blood had made red the pave
ments of Baltimore, when every body
in the West rose up to go, on the
banks OF the Mississippi there lived
an old widow woman. Her husband
was in the grave. She had but one
child in the world, a noble boy, six
teen years of age She took him
from the pillow and the harrow, and
said TO him, you must go and fight
for your country. This great river
! that flows by our farm must wash
the shore of but one country on its
pilgrimage to the sea.
The boy marched off to battle
He went with me through many
weary march, and bloody fight, and
skirmish. He was q Christian boy,
reared in the Sunday School, and he
always carried his Bible with him.
In one of our engagements he was
wounded, and the surgeon told him
he must die. Charley said he would
like to see his mother but he hadn't
money enough to send for her. The
soldier boys OF my escort-and gen
erous souls they were gathered
around him and made up purse,
and sent away out in the State of
Illinois for his mother to come to see
him. remember when she present
ed herself at my headquarters, cheer-
full and happy, with Bible and Meth
edist hymn book in her satchel. |
took her to the hospital. She took
his hand cheerfully, thanking God
that she saw him alive, and there
she sat, day after day, watching all
the child she had in the world
watching for him to die
As passed through that hospital
one morning, looking at the cot of
Charley, l saw the death damp on his
brow his eye was dim; his pulse
was getting slow. l took him by
the hand and said: GLOW is it this
morning p General" said be, IL
feel that am going to the front,
and his eye frightened. His mother
stood by him singing
'Jesus make dying bel
Feel soft as downy pillows are;
While on his breast eaI my head
And breathe my life out sweety thors"
She gave up her boy as cheerfully
as you would give dollar. We bur-
ried him in the swamp. She went to
the funeral and thanked God she had
son to give to the nation.
Such graves are scattered all over
the country. They appeal to us to-
day that we shall not let this govern
ment of the people tor tho people per-
ish from the earth.

from the fiery benzoes sparkling,
