MILTON NEWS.

No one can enjoy rest but the tired
man. He alone can appreciate ina
lures sweet restorer," balmy sleep. Yet
it is often the case that man becomes
so tired that he cannot sleep, hut he en-
Joys a rest from his wearine,s, and a
sweet langour creeps over his tired body,
that, he who knows no weariness cannot
enjoy. The man of pleasure p prom
enades the country over, seeking for
something to satisfy his mind; ne scorns
to labor, it is so disgraceful to man of
his standing; yet he is engaged in doing
things that, were they known, would
condemn him to everlasting tiffany, in
the eyes of a moral community. This
man never becomes tired, and naturally
never ne; ds rest He lies down at night,
but cannot sleep the "sleep of he just"
his spirit is troubled, his mind is in
state of unrest, he is not tired his dreams
are associated with hobgoblins, and things
that have no reality. We have said this
man never is tired, but really he is more
tired in the morning when he rises, than
he was in the evening when he retired.
But he has not time to crafty too much
indulgence il the morning; he must be
on the wing FIR another days sport.
And on he goes, and night agilin brings
but the counterpart of the many that
have preceded. He envies the fresh
blooming countenance of the sturdy far
mer, or mechanic, and would tain enjoy
their health; but no act of recalcitration
on his part will ever cause him to give
up the bachanalian carousals and the
midnight revelry for the drudgery of a
workman's life. But this must be done,
if he would enjoy a workman's pleasure.
If he would be free from the phantasies
that often trouble the DEVILS workshop
an idle mans brain-and would enjoy
rest in all its sweetness, he must sub
scribe to and live up to the conditions
made obligatory by nature as a price for
her especial favors. Our lives are, to a
certain extent, reactionary. What we
do to-day will come back to us in an
other form, tomorrow, or some other
time. If our obedience to hygiene is
correct, our rest will be enjoyed and our
days will be long on the land.

THE Union Republican members
of the Legislature will meet at
Dover to-day to consider a propo-
sition made to them as individuals
by the seven Regular" who re-
fused to join in electing a United
States Senator last year. The sit
uation they are called upon to face
is made up from the result of sew
eral pressures recently brought to
bear on the Regulars. If the
proposition is sincere; if there is
no Interior purpose other than to
bring about an election of two Sen
ators by Governor HUM calling a
special session of the Legislature,
then the Union Republicans can
strike hands upon one common
ground, and that ground can only
be the elevation of the majority
party's CHOICE. Edward Addicks,
and any candidate satisfactory to
the minority to Nthe two United
States senatorships. Any further
consideration is a waste of time and
child's play. The Union Repub-
lican members are not owned, nei-
ther do they owe their political ex-
istence to any man, or set of men
and, for this reason, will refuse tC
bow to the dictation of small mi
nority. We would be glad to see
a special session called and two
Senators elected, but rather thar
sacrifice a principle, it would be fal
better to let the whole matter go t.
