"Of' course 1 do not mean that a
man Will not produce more in week

much doubt whether, at the end of
ayear, he will generally have pro-
duced more by working seven days
week than by working six days a
week; and l firmly believe that at
the end of twenty years he will have
produced less by working seven days
~a'week than by working six days a
week. The natural difference be-
tween Campania and Spizbergen is
trifling,when compared with the diff
- ference between country inhabited
d. by men sunk in bodily and mental
decrepitude. Therefore it is that
we are not poorer, but richer, because
we have, through many ages, rested
from our labor one day in seven.
While industry is suspended, while
the plow lies in the furrow, while the
Exchange is silent, while no smoke
ascends from the factory, process
is going on quite as important to
the wealth of the nation as any pro-
cess which is performed on more
.al busy days. Man, the machine of
rlachines-the machine compared
with which all the contrivances of
q the Watts and Arkwrights are worth
less-is repairing and winding up,
so that he returns to his labors on
the Monday with clearer intellect,
with iyelier spirits, with renewed
corporeal vigor."

Parents, Take Heed.

Some short time ago we were
called to visit the death-bed of a
young man who had ruined his con-
stitution by drink. He lay in an
upper room of disreputable house
in Greene Street, in this city. That
fearful disease, delirium tremens,
had seized him. In the agonies of
death he cursed his indulgent, but
now poor, heart-broken mother. AL
most the last words that he uttered,
with gnashing teeth, were these:
MY mother taught me to drink!r'
That young man was broughtup
amid all the comforts of a splendid
home on the Avenue; but there
were vices in that home. There he
was initiated into the vice of drink
ing, and in a Greene Street brothel
he graduated into eternity.
When will parents learn wisdom?

1t is not work that kills men; it
is worry. Work is healthy; you
can hardly put more upon man
than he can bear. Worry is rust up
on the blade. 1t is not the revolu-
tion that destroys the machinery,
but the friction. Fear secretes acids;
but love and trust are sweet juices
Lay a course in life to pursue, and
at all hazards abide by it; see first
that your course is correct, and when
once that is decided intelligently. as
it also has appreciation of the best
men whether recorded or occular,
make it your business to see that
this one thing of your life is strictly
adhered to.

The Sabbath.

Sabbath day is the beautiful river
in the week of Time. The. other
days are troubled streams, whose
angry waters are disturbed by the
countless crafts that float upon them
but the pure river Sabbath flows on
TO Eternal Rest, chanting the sub
lime music of the silent, throbing
spheres and timed by the pulsations
Of the Everlasting Life. Beautiful
river Sabbath, glide on. Bear forth
on thy bosom the poor tired spirit
10 the rest which it seeks, and the
weary watching soul to endless bliss.

Another Mining Horror.
The terrible di a ter at the
Avondale mine in Pennsylva-
MIA, several months ago, had
almost its counterpart at Pitts
ton on Saturday. Fire broke
out in Che mining shaft, cutting
off the retreat Of thirty eight
laborers, men and boys, and
apparently booming them to
certain death by suffocation.-
Desperate exertions were made,
however, to rescue them, and
twenty Of the number were
still alive when brought up,
the remainder being dead. 1t
would be difficult to exagger-
ate the horrors of such a calam-
ity, and the details, as reported
by telegraph, cannot fail to
create a profound impression on
the public mind.
After the warnings hereto
fore had, the proprietors Of this
mine deserve severe censure
for having failed to take proper
precautions for the safety Of
their workmen. 1t is time that
this reckless greed for making
money should have some eff.
fective check. 1t is enough
that the wages of workingmen
and their general interests
should suffer through the
grasping spirit of capitalists
Their lives, at least, must be
held sacred. There can be no
real difficulty in avoiding such
calamities as those of the Avon
dale and Pittston mines, if only
4 little trouble and expense are
taken for that purpose. This
fresh slaughter of miners should
not be permitted to pass into
oblivion without something ef-
fectual being done to prevent
the recurrence of such calami-
ties in any of the mining dis
tricts in the future.

chronicles n very rich divorce
case in that county, that for
brevity, cheapness and dispatch
beats Chicago a long way. It
appears that James Chapman

'tuck up" with each other and
been living together as man
and wife for long time, and
that jim got tired Of, the old
woman and courted Miss Lindy,
who promised to share his bed
and board, provided he would
get q divorce from Jennie -
jim therefore fastened to the
office of T. II. Clay, one of AL
corn s colored magistrates, and
offered him five dollars for a
dsvorce. Clay pocketed the
the "fve" and wrote the fol-
lowing certificate Of divorce:
"Miss Indy, this is to certi-
fy that James Chapman and
Jenny Williams have this day
separated before me, and you
and him are at liberty to mar
ry when you will.
