The time will come when children will not
desire to be continually under the parents
roof. Let them out In the daytime. Chill
dren should never be In the street In the
dark. Older persons than children can not
bear that very well. But in the daytime
swell the bounds as far as practical. Err In
that direction rather than In the other.
Over-restraint upon an impetuous nature Is
demorallzlng. But, having let them out,
draw them back again, by making the house
pleasanter than any other place. Social en-
joyments, innocent games; amusements In
which, If possible, parents and children shall
both participate; the resources Of art, and
science, and music, and danclng-and any
body that will not let child dance In the
household ought himself to be set dancing
to another tune!-these things ought to be
encouraged. Whatever will make the child
say, "Nowhere else am ! so happy as at
furnishing 1t with the material Of Joyous life
that honors and dignlfes the household.
Therefore 1t is that pleasures sought away
from home should be taken, as sweetmea Is
are, not as food, but as occasional mouth
fuls. And In all pleasures taken away from
home, selections should be made, and those
should be preferred which take the family,
and not those which separate the family. II
1t is right for your child to go to the theatre,
It Is right for father and mother to 20 with
him. fit is right for the daughter to go
with her beau to the opera, II Is right for the
family to go. 1t 10 better to go In party,
as family, than for one to go alone. It Is
solitary drinking that curses men. It Is
solitary lust that blights men. 1t Is solitary
pleasures that demoralize men. II Is soil
tary enjoyment out of the family that cor
rupts the household. And II you are not
at home provided with all that Is needful,
eud you go forth for entertainment and In
struction, seek those things to which the
whole or a major part ofthe family can go.
Separate not the children from the parents,
nor the children from one another.---H

AN interesting question Is now raised in
the Kentucky courts. John Comfy, q negro,
was convicted In the Jefferson Circuit Court
of the murder of Henry Pope, q negro, and
was sentenced to be hung on the 80th ult.
He petltioned the United States District
Court In Covlngton, stating that he is Of the
African race, and Is denied and cannot In
force In the courts or judicial tribunal of the
State Of Kentucky the right to testify or
give evidence, which Is one of the rights
secured to him by the first section Of the act
of Congress of April 0, 1865. He therefore
asks that writ Of error be allowed him to
remove the cause to the United States court,
in pursuance Of the act OF Congress.
Judge Ballard questioned whether the case
could be re-examined upon writ Of error,
but In favor Of life he allowed 1t, $50 that
the serious considerations suggested may Sc
cure full consideration before the circuit
court" A mandamus was served on the
sheriff at Louisville to stay execution. The
sheriff telegraphed Governor Stevenson, who
replied that upon petition Of sundry citizens
he had already granted a reprieve for thirty
days, and that "the prisoner will be executed
in thirty days without further clemency."
According to this, the collision between the
state and national authorities Is to come of
in thirty days.
