KEEPING LATE hours.

In some recouections Of early theatrical days
in New York, it iB noticed, among othor things,
that tho performance was announced to begin
at "precisely m half hour alter oclock." !"
The custom indicates that there was much more
frugaIty in social life then than any of our largo
American cities enjoy at the present time, and
suggests that a return to the custom might
produce many changes for the better
in tho general discontinuance Of keep
ing late hours. There is no reason why
social and public amusements should 1ast until
late in the night. The lateness of their hours
is largely Responsible for the character Of dssi-
patton which they so often assume. It is by no
means exclusively a custom Of primitive times
to keep good hours. In most Of the German
cities, the theatrical and operatic performances
begin at an early hour, in many cases as carly as
81 o'clock. The practice contributes very sen

THE LAW OF WIFErMURDER.

Hanging has become so much Of an event in. .
this country, Of late, that tllo incidents in re-
cent trial for murder, conviction, and execution
in Washington City, assume q special impor-
tance. The case WAS that of negro who had
cut his wife's throat. Both man and wife had
been slaves. After the proclamation Of emanci-
patton, the man Joined the er1ny. He claimed
that, during his absence Of more than year, his
wife had borne child which was inegitimate.
provided for her support. But the wife,
as he claimed, was still unfaith-
!ul, and. upon his second re-
turn, lie killed her in fit Of Jealousy. a 'ft
Of jealousy" would, according to precedent, be
regarded as .'emotional .' insanity," and would
most juries. Tho Judge in this particular trial
warlcd off such verdict by instructing the
jury that malice WAS clearly present when the
murder was committed. One OF his reasons for
this instruction was that the weapon which was
used was razor. There is something, then,
about the Instruments by which death is brought
on that determines the extent Of dcliberation
and malica+ II the instrument had beon pistol,
md tho victim the paranour instead Of q wife,
it is not impossible that different verdict would
have been rendered. Another view of the mat
ter, taken by the Judge, WIS Likewise unique.
In tie course Of his instructions to the jury, he
aaid that, had every woman been slain who had
lived with man other than her husband during
the var, there would be almost as many women
killed as there we're men who fell in battle. If
this Judgment DO accepted, the conclusion is
that emotional insanity" cannot be admitted
IN cases Of jealousy which :rise from infdelity
during the war. Tho eccno at the
gal!o"s was not less disgusting than
some OF the incidents Of the trial. Tho
convict WAS accompanied by several colored oler-
gy1nen, who united in concentrating al elements
of personal magnetism into . religious enthuEi-
asm, which completely oyershadowed the solem-
nifty Of the occasion, and left no impression Of
the real tragic character Of the law which takesa
life for lifo. The joined together in singing:

sibly to the enjoyment Of the perform
ances. They are concluded at 915 o'clock,
after furnishing good, long intornnis-
sions for visiting the 6n6ets or
chatting in the boxes, and the audience retires
in ample season to get to bed at the usual hour,
or to attend social reception without being
obliged to forego some favorite opera, play, or
ballet. Among the benefits which accompany
the practice Of opening public entertainments at
an earlier hour in this country, would be 3 desr-
able limitation Of business hours. It has been
found in great commercial centres that as much
business can be done by systematic attention to
it for six hours as if ten hours were occupied.
In London, for instance, it is the custom to
transact the bulk Of the wholesale and sample
trade, as well as professional business, within
the hours Of 10 a. N. and ?. m. One Of the
results Of the custom is, that every business man
is found at his post, while, without the estab-
ishuent Of fixed hours and in the relaxation
which is sought in stretch Of from o'clock in
the morning till or o'clock in the evening.
there is never any certainty Of finding the man
you want to see. There is reason to suspect that
rs much time is lost on this account as would
occur by limiting business hours. The per-
nicious results Of overtaxation Of the physical
and mental system, which are 80 general in
America, are largely due to the practice Of doing
business at all times Of day; and it is probable
that the saving in health and vigor would more
than compensate for tie apparent loss of time
that would ensue from the change. tits coming
to be very generally felt that tie nouralgias, the
nervous attacks, and the debility which are
notable among both American men and women,
as compared with the people OF other countries,
are to be traced to the late hours which
are kept in our American cities. The trouble
which the reformors have found is where theycan
begin the general change which is acknowledged
to be SO desirable. May not their starting point
be found in the hours Of opening at tho public
places Of nmusement7 It would be for the COM
fort, convenience, and, profit OF managers to
begin their performances at G:30 o'clock, instead
of s o'clock, and to 9 very large extent, such a
change would regulate hours both before and
after their entertainments.

. The 4Na California protests very bitterly
against General Howard's system OF praying
such Indians as Cachige and his numbering
Apaches into peacefalncss. 1t appears that
General Howard recently visited Cachisa, re-
monstrated with him upon the error of his ways,
attempted to convert him by prayer, and after
doing 20 left apparently satisfied with bis work.
The efficacy of prayer in this instance, however,
failed, for, no sooner had the General turned his
back thnn the expected convert returned to
Ills murdcrous raids with redoubled
energy, and swears that he will
murder every white man he finds,
because little Mexican boy, whom the Indians
had burned all over the body, escaped from Ca
c!,;.sea camp wLero he had been detained as 3
prisoner. We arc not disposed to throw any
doubts upon the efficacy Of prayer, but here is
m instance where gunpowder should bo e.aoci-
ated with it to carry it home and make it effect
i've. Tho alta very aptly Eays: "We would give

California is nothing if not original. The
additions which have been mado to the Lecture
field from that section Of the country have
usually been Of unique description, but the
latest contribution in this line is more remarka~
bic than the appearance Of Minnie Myrtle Miller
or Mrs. Laura Fair One Harry Allen, Esq, q
reformed convict, q gentleman who received q
ticket-of-1eaye from Australia only to serve out
tenn in the Ca1ifornis State Prison, is reported
to havo made his debut in the American ros-
tr11m before large and highly hly-intelligent audi
ence. The novelty Of the occasion was consid-
erably Heightened by the zouave cut of A1r.
Aliens clothes, and that fashion Of wearing the
hair which is peculiar to prison life. Mr.
Allen ia d gentleman Of large experience in
his way, and knows whereof he speaks when he
is on the subject Of prison-life. His chief Ia
ment was, that the San Quentin Penitentiary did
not provide the convicts with candles, furnished
the cat-o-nine-tails instead Of books, and de-
prived the prisoners Of clean shirts and kindred
luxuries. Thereupon N1r. Allen announced that
he had written IN autobiography which he would
bo glad to sell to the pubic generally, and his
audience in particular, at the best publishers
rates. # lIr. Aliens lectures prove to be un-
unprohtable, and 31r. Aliens biography fail to
sell, it is not impossible that a1c. Allen will COLI
sidor himself the victim of social ostracism, aud
return to his profession of crackEman fully justi
fed in his own mind that the prejudices Of this
unforgiying world are exclusively responsible

We have now an incidental justification ot
Pontius Pilates conduct in consenting to the
crucifxion Of the Savior. It comes from writer
who is reviewing, in the Poll dfou Gazette, Nj
Hills essay "On Liberty, in which Alr. Mill re-
fused to admit any extenuation for the Emperor
Marcus Aurelius in his spersecution OF the Chris
tians- In opposing this ground, the Tritertakes
up the more decided case Of Pontius PLATE, and
maintains that it was his duty, as q Magistrate
OF an Important province among people f.nati-
cally inclined, to preserve peace throughout tho

peror, q Minister Of the Roman Empire, and

Justice, therefore, argues the writer, close his

men are as ahrewd and safe in their calculations
as tho business community generally is proved
by the fact that there have been fewer failures
among them during the past ten years than
among the mercantile classes.
