How Slow the Night Rolls Awit!—These
words fell upon our ears from the lips of a poor suffer
er iu the lonely hours of midnight. They are still
fresh in our memory We recollect as we listened to
to his short breathings, and saw him writhing un
der the anguish of disease, how our minds ran out
upon the world, and visited the lonely cabins,
gloomy prisons, and dark cells of the sick and dy
ing. We Ihought how many voices iu the loneli
ness of that hour were exclaiming with sorrowful
he iris, “How slow the night rolls away!" Yes,
with intense anxiety they watched the windows, if
possible to catch the first faint streakings of the
morning light. One who has watched by the bed
side of suffering humanity, thr ,ugli the long still
night, when the great heart of the world is hushed to
repose, and the solitude of death casts its gloom upon
the bosom of nature, can tell the solemn import of
of the words uttered by this afflicted being as be
grappled with the strong arm of disease, and en
deavored to ward off the keen pointed shafts. The
mother who watches with Bleepless eye over the
couch of her dying infant child, exclaims iu sorrow,
“How slow the night rolls away." The storm-tossed
mariner wiio is nearing the port of his native home
and already in imagination hears the voices of loved
ones lisping ids name, exclaims, “How Blow the
night rolls away !" The traveller who has for many
a long and tedious day urged oil his steps towards
home, as he lies down to rest a few days journey
from his little cottage, in the solitude of midnight,
and thinking of his dear wife and p attling children,
exclaims, “How slow the night rolls away !" The
Christian who lias baffled with the storm of this life
for many a long year, until his locks have become
white in his master's service, in looking out upon
the future of happiness that awaits him, and who
desires to depart in peace to dwell with his Cod,
exclaims with enthusiasm, “How slow the night
rolls away
The Age.—Generations, like individuals, usually
know more of their virtues than their faults. They
ate quick to discern their advantages and to make
the most of every supposed element of superiority.
The lights rather than the shadows of life engross
them. They linger firndly around the tokens of
growth, but avoid those of decay. Pride has its
root in the sense of expanding power and advancing
greatness. Blindeonceitand vain glorious boasting
are the spontaneous outgrowth of eras distinguished
for novel combinations of old forces, for restless ac
tivity anil brilliaut results in the sphere of national
achievement. It is natural for a generation that
finds itself mated with great plans in government,
industry and science, aud identified with unexam
pled triumphs iu every field of human energy, to
claim more for itself than it ought, and to adopt
false standards of judgment in order to give curren
ry to extravagant pretensions.
Our own time certainly furnishes no exception to
remarks of this character, but rather a most apt
instance oftheir truth. Its strength is vitiated by
vanity Its glory is soiled and degraded by indis
criminate boasting. It is age of wonders and an
age of platitudes, remarkable at oiioe for good sense
and folly, vigor and weakness, realities and shame,
Judging from much of the published thought of the
day, to Hay nothing of the animus of social and in
dust rial life, one would suppose it to be among the
established convictions of this generation that tlie
human race had just broken its shell, and begun to
comprehend the machinery of progress, that civile
zation and literature, humanity and brotherhood
were original creations of tlie present, and that the
past survived only as a treasury of interesting his
torical incident. 11 cannot be doubted that such
views have much to do with the admitted self suffi
ciency of tlie age, and that they prevail to a degree
which renders the working million well-nigh insen
sible to the debt they owe preceding generations.—
liev. A. N. Littlejohn.
The True Struggle.—Ok ye gifted ones, fol
low your calling, for, however various your talents
may be, ye can have but one calling capable oflead
ing ye to eminence and renown. Follow resolutely
Ihe one strait path before you; it is that of your good
ant'd. Let neither obstacles nor temptation induce
you to leave it. Bound along, if you can; if not, on
nnnd and knees follow it ; perish in it, if needful.—
But ye need not fear that. No one ever yet died in
the true path cf his calling before lie bad attained
the pinnacle. Turn into other paths, and, for a mo
mentary advantage or gratification, ye have sold
your inheritenoe, \ our immortality. \ e will never
be heard of after death.
The Florida War.—The following appears in a
letter to the Floridian &. Journal, dated the Sfith of
April, nt Tampa :
Permission, has been given to Lewis Dougli
tery and James Beezby to undertake to communi
cate with the Indians. We understand they have
left Fort Myers on their mission. I tear that this
will be the end of them, though it may result in
good. The reward offered for live Indians ia still
m force at former advertised rates.
Madam Rumor states, (audit appears from rather
au authentic source,) that hostilities are to be sus
pended, and that we are to await the arrival of the
long looked for delegation to accomplish what we
have tints far failed to do. This, if true, is deemed
by most persons a defective policy. It would be
well probably after the delegation arrives thus to
act, but to stop at this time wou ! d have a rather en
couraging effect upon the Indians, and we think the
delegation would find them unwilling to treat, and
more hostile and determined than ever before. But
if this liarrassing is kept up,and they are prevented
from making crops this year, we think the delega
tion might euceeed.
There was some excitement created in our other
wise quiet city last Sabbatli morning, by the arri
val at our wharf of ten of Kentucky’s noble sons.
An Important Decision. —The custom in gen
eral practice in this city of inserting a clause in a
deed of trust by which other property may be sub
stituted for that designated has been decided by
tlie Circuit Court, at its recent sitting, to be con
trary to law. The case which called forth this de
lusion was that of McDermott vs. Yeatmen. It
seems that McDermott was a trustee in a deed giv
en on two horses, and that there was a clause in the
deed which provided that i tlier horses might be
substituted. Somo time after the deed was ex eu
ted a substitution was made. The defendant levied
undo Magistrate's judgment, on tlie horses thus
subs! J, and McDermott replevied. The Court
instri . thejury that if they were satisfied, from
the t ’ nee,'that the horses levied on by defen
dant not the identical horses described iu the
deed ol trust, they must find for defendant, except
they should further uud that there was a formal act
of delivery of tlie horses for the purposes of the
trust by tlie grantor iu the deed to tlie trustee be
fore the levy by Veatman. Thejury found for the
defendant. This decision also applies to deeds on
stock-in-trade.— H'ashineton Union.
Deal Gentli with the Little Ones.—A
child, when asked why a certain tree grew crooked
replied: 'somebody «od upon it, I suppose when
it was little."
“He who checks a child with terror,
Stops its play, and stills its song
Not alone commits an error,
Hu' a grievous moral tcrong.
Give it play and never fear it,
Active life is no defect;
Never, never, break its spirits;
Curb it only to direct.
Would you atop the flowing river.
Thinking it would cease to flow i
Onward must it flow forever;
Better teach it where logo."

IMPORTANT TO PLANTERS,
rr HE RICHMOND FACTORY, Richmond
L County, Georgia, continues to manufacture Wool
len Cloth at 12 i cents per yard ; finding every material
except the Wool. The extensive and constantly increas
ing patronage the Factory has enjoyed for years past,
assure, the proprietors that the article of winter clothing
for Negroes made by them, has not been surpassed by
any cloth made North or South.
Recent extensive improvements and additions not only
enable us to keep up the standard of the Goods, but to
secure an early delivery of the same.
Planters, «r others, who may desire to avail of this
opportunity, and secure a first rate article at a moderate
cost, have only to send us the Wool washed clean in cold
water ; (if sent dirty, one half cent per yard extra is
charged for washing.) Burry Wool is not objectionable;
the Burrs are removed by machinery.
The name of the owner should be marked on all Pack
ages sont us. Wool sent by any of the Railroads in
Georgia, Alabama, or South Carolina, to the Augusta
Depot, marked Richmond Factory (and owner's namjß
also), will be regularly and promptly received, and the
cloth, when made, returned to the points directed. Each
parcel is made up in the turn received, hence an early
delivery is always desirable.
All instructions to WM. SCHLEY,

DENNIS’ ALTERATIVE,
OR GEORGIA SARSAPARILLA COMPOUND,
FtEPARED by J. DENNIS, M.D., Augusta, Ga.,
for Diseases of the Liver and to Purify the Blood.
It contains, in addition to Sarsaparilla, the hydro-alco
holic extract of Queen’s Delight, (Stillingia) White Ash,
Grey Beard or Fringe Tree, (Chiouanthus) Tincture of
May Apple or Mandrake, (Podophyllum) and Blood
Root, (Sanguinaria.)
In small doses it acts as an alterative or laxative, in
larger doses as a mild purgative— with some as an active
purgative.
As an alterative or laxative, it has been found useftil
in Constipation of the Bowels, Jaundice, Bilious Fever,
Fever and Ague, Sick Headache, Dizziness, various Fe
male Complaints, Chronic Affections of the Liver, second
ary Syphilis and Syphiloid Diseases, Scrofulous Affec
tions, Sores, Ulcers, Blotches, Cutaneous Eruptions, or
Diseases of the Skin, and all other diseases in which Sar
saparilla or alterative medicines are indicated.
That it actsupon the Liver, may be known from t ne
fact, that in Jaundice, or cases of Biliousness, it caiques
free bilious evacuations, readily removes unnatural yel
low tinge about the eyes and upon the skin, and im
proves the health and spirits.
In Cutaneous Eruptions, Blotches, Pimples, and other
diseases of the skin, it causes the disappearance of the
Blotches, Pimples, &c., and greatly improves tii» com
plexion.
As a diet drink, it keeps the bowels free, 'the liver
healthy, and the blood pure.
Its healthy action on the liver, and purifying effect up
on the blood, make it a great safeguard against disease;
for children a safeguard against worms—it causes an in
creased secretion and passage of the bile, whieh acts as
*»n irritant to worms and prevents their accumulation.
Physicians, who have made extensive use of the diffe
rent ingredients of this preparation of Sarsaparilla, re
gard them as the best and most efficient agents in the
Materia Medica.
It is put up in pint bottles. Price $1 per bottle.
