TIE EARLY RISING DEIuHos.-For
farmers and those who live in localities
where people can retire at eight or nine
in the evening, the old notion about early
rising Is still appropriate. But he who
is kept mp till Ten or eleven o'clock, and
then rises at Eve or six, because Of the
teaching Of some old ditty about "early to
rise" is committing sin against God and
his own soul. There il not one man in
ten thousand who can afford to do with.
out seven or eight hours sleep. All the
stuff written about great men who slept
only three or fouls u night, is apocryphal
and lie. They have been put upon
small allowance occasionally, and pros.
pered; but no man ever kept healthy in
body and mind for number Of years with
less than seven hours sleep.
Americans need more sleep than they
are getting. This lack makes them 50
nervous, and the insane asylums so popu-
IOus. II you get TO bed early then rise
early. II you cannot get TO bed ill late,
then rise late. 1t may be as christlati-
like for one man 10 rise at eight, as II is
for another TO rise at Eve. Let the rous-
ing bell be rung at least thirty minutes
before your public appearance. Physic,,
ans say that sudden jump out OF bed
gives irregular motion to the pulse. II
takes hours 70 get over too sudden ris.
ing. 1t is barbarous 10 expect children
instantly to land on the centre OF the
floor at tho call Of their nurses, the Their.
mometer being below zero. Give us time
after you call to roll over, gaze at the
world full in the face, and look before we
leap. ~ .,--.

The repeated cry Of poverty from the
South is rather anomalous in view Of a
constant succession OF good crops. The
90 IN, now being marketed, has already
reached 3,slS,OOO bales, and will probably
run up total OF 100000 before Sep
TENDER |. The export Of raw cottOus 10
foreign countries has risen from 2,l53,OOO
bales in 1875 to 2,64S,OOO in 1876, the de.
mand showing an unexpected elasticity.
OF course, prices have been low, but the
return on the whole ought to profit the
South. The Charleston NerI however,
complains that there Is less money (capi.
talE in South Carolina now than there
was ten years ago. and warns the agents
Of northern fertilizers that "thc planters
are very poor" and cannot invest. It
notes tendency to rely on the small
grams aud make cotton an incidental
crop. There is wisdom in a diversifca.
ton Of industry, but cotton must always
be the chict reliance OF the cotton States
for profitable agriculture. Thrift ia the
great need, whatever the crop.

To BE REMEHDERED.-Wc have prOba.
bly, all OF ua met with instances in which
4 word heedlessIy spoken against the rrp.
utation Of female has been mapnitied
BY malicious minds until tho cloud has
been dark enough to overshadow her
whole existence. To those who are nc.
custOmcd, not necessarily from bad mo
tiyes, but from thoughLlcsSncss, TO speak
lightly Of ladies, we commend these hints
~ w0rthy Of confederation.
Never use ladys name in an improp.
er place, at an improper time, or in mix
ed company. Never make assertions
about her you think untrue, or illusions
that You feel she herself would blush to
hear. When you meet with men who do
not scruple TO make use Of u woman's

members OF the cOmmunlty-men lost to
every sense Of honor every feeling Of hu,

Many a good and worthy womans
character has been ruined and her heart
broken by lie manufactured by some
william aud repeated where II should not
have been, and in the presence Of those
whose little judgment could not deter
them from circulating the foul aud
damning report. A Islander is soon prop
agated; and the smallest thing derogatory
to womans character will fiy on the
wings Of tho wind, aud magnify IA il cir

brushes the Unconscious victim. Respect
the name Of woman, for your mothers
and sisters are women, and AZ you would
have their lives uncmbillered by the
Slanderer's tongue heed the ilG that
your own words may bring upon the
mother, the slater or the wife Of some
fellow creature. Let this advice be re.
membered byall who read it.
