Keep your eye on your neighbors. Take care of them. Lio not let them stir without watching. Thoy may do something wrong if you do. To bo suro, you never know them to do any thing vory bad, but it may bo on your account they have not. i’orhaps if it had not been for your kind caro thoy might have disgraced thomsolvoa a long timo ago. Therefore no not re lax any effort to koop them where they ought to bo. Never mind your cwn business —that will tako caro of itself. There is a man passing along—ho is looking over tho fence—be suspicious of him; perhaps lie oomtomplatos stoaling, somo of tlioso dark nights; there is no knowing what queer fuu cios he may have got into liis head.

The Life of a Man. —It is a state of suspenso between earth and elso whoro. A gospel that may bo changod into a lie, and a Ho that may become a gospel. It is tho heading to a chap ter of accidents, a problem that defies Euclid, a fulcrum that Archiuiedos tho machinist dreamt of when ho asked for a central motivo. It is the* daily broad lust, a prophecy of errors, lc offers or rejects, waiting opportunity to bo good or bad —ignorant of itsolf, it is tho theme upon which exception al sagacity builds a fabric of society. A spasm toady to sot lire to a city, or quench the conflagration of a province to rescue a nation from ruin or plunge if into destruction, an atom mado up of all tho elements that equa lize or ovor whelm, composed of all passions of glory or of outrage, with out a fixed purpose for cither, capa ble of tho martyrdom of a saint or tho downfall of a devil- It is a mystery that walks boforo tho world, a light that blinds, a darkness that illumes, a phantom that Lightens, a reality that assures.

There aro thousands of busy people who die every year for want of sloop. It may bo that too much sleep injures somo; but in an excitable people, aud in our intouso business habits, thero is far more mischief for want of sloop than from too much of it. Sloopless ness becomes n disease. It is tho pre cursor of insanity. Wlion it does not roach that sad result, it is still full of peril, as well as of suffering. Thous ands of men havo boon indebted for bad bargains, for lack of courage, for inolfoctivonoss, to loss of sloop. It is curious that all tho popular po etical representations of sleeping aud waking are tho l-ovorso oltlio truth.— Wo spoak of sloop as tho imago of doatii, and of our waking hours as tho imago of life. But tho activity is tho result of somo form of decomposition iu tho body. Every thought, still more every motion, any volition wastos some part of tho nervous substance, precisely as llaiuo is produced by wast ing tho fuel. It is the death of somo part of tho physical substauco that pro duces tiro phenomena! of iutoliigont and voluntary life. On tho other baud, sloop is not liko death ; for it is tho period iu which tire waste of tho system ceases, or is re duced to its minimum, bleep repairs tho wastes which waking hours havo mado. It rebuilds tho system. The night is tho repair-shop of the body. Every part of tho system is silently overhauled and all the organs, tissues and substances aro replenished. Wak ing consumes, s!™-? replaces } -waking oxhausts, sleep repairs; waking is death, sleep is life. Tho man who sleeps little, repairs littlo; if ho sleeps pooily, ho repairs poorly. If he uses up in a day less than ho accumulates at night ho will gain iu health and vigor. It ho uses up all that ho gains at night, ho will just hold his own. If he uses more by day than ho gathers at night, ho will lose. Aud if this last process bo. long continued, ho must succumb. A man who would boa good worker must seo to it that ho is a good sleep er, Human life is liko a mill; some times tho stream is so copious that ono needs caro but little about his sup ply. Now, oftou, tho stream that turn-, the mill needs- to bo economized. A dam is built to hold a larger supply. Tho mill runs tho pod pretty low thro’ thu day, but by doya tho gate, the niglrt refills tho pond, and the wheels go merrily around again next day. Once in a whilo, whoa spring rains aro copious and freshets overflow, the mill may run night and day ; but this is rare. Ordinarily the mill should run by day and tho pond fill up by night. A man has as much for-co in him as he lias provided for by sloop. Tho quality of action, especially mental ac tivity, depends upon tho quality of sleep. If day-timo is the loom iu which men weave night is tho time when tho threads aro laid in and tho filling prepared. Men need on au average rffight hours of sloop a day, or ono-third of their whole time. A man of lymphat ic temperament may require niuo. A nervous temperament may require hut seven or six, and instances havo boon i known in which four hours havo boon j enough. The reason is plain. A lymphatic man is sluggish iu all his functions, 110 moves slowly, thinks slowly, oats slowly, digests slowly, and sloops slowly, that is, all tho restora tive acts, of" his system go on slowly, in analogy with his tomporamont. But a nervous man acts quickly iu every thing, by uight or by day. IV hon , awake, ho does more iu an hour than j a sluggish man in two hours; anil so | in his sloop, lie sloops faster, and his system nimbly repairs in six hours | wlmt it would take another one eight hours to perform. Every man must sleep according to bis temperament. But eight hours is ! tho average, if ono requires a little , more or a little loss, ho will find it out fax himself. Whoovor by work, pleas uro, sorrow, or by any other enuso is j regularly diminishing his sloop, is dcs- j troying his life. A man may hold out for a timo, hut Nature keeps close ac counts and no man can dodge her set tlements. Wo havo soon impoverished railroads that could not koop tho tragic in order, nor spare Iho enginos to ho j thoroughly repaired. Every year track and equipment deteriorated. — | By-aud-by comes a crash, and tho road is in a heap of confusion and des- j traction. So it is with men. They - an not spare timo to sleep enough.’ They slowly run behind-. Symptoms of general waste appear,, I’romaturo | wrinkles, weak eyes, depression of s]nrits, failure of. digestion, feebleness in tho morning and overwhelming mol nncholy—thoso and other signs show ! a general dilapidation. If, now, eud • don calamity causes an extraordinary pressure, thoy go down under it. They itavo no resources to draw upon. They havo been living up to the verge of their whole vitality every day. Tiiore is a groat deal of intemper- , anco bosides that ol tobacco, opium or brandy. Meu are dissipated who oVor- r tax tlieir systems all day tmd under sloop every uight. Sonic men aw dis- j sipatod by physical stimulants, and somo by social, and some by profos-, 6ional aud commeroiaA.

VS Tho United States Rovonuo Cutter Nausemond, Captain Oolosborry, ar rived at this port yesterday afternoon about 5 o,clock and anchored off tho city. It will bo remembered that this steamer left here on the 12th ultimo under orders to proceed to Fornaudina and thoro report to tho U. S. Mar shall, who would deliver to hor Cap tain cortain prisoners, which ho would convoy to Dry Tortugas and dolivor to tho commandant of that post. After tho departure of tho steamer many roports wore in circulation, und no lit tlo wonder us to who Ik. prisoners were. '* - Arriving at Fornaudina, Copt Cutes herry was compelled to wait two days for tho Marshall, who was absent on business. As soon as lie returned, a writ of habeas corpus was served on him for tlio delivery of two of tho prisoners tho counterfeits, before Judge Frazier in Jacksonville on tho 18th. Tho three counterfeiters, Noble, Sweat aud Saxon, wore thou placed on tho sailing cuttor llcscuo, aud tho Nansomond went to tlm Satilla river in search of Russell, tho smuggler, whom thoy ar rested on tlio 10th and took to Jack sonville, taking in tow tlio RoscUo with hor three prisoners. After somo trouble iu Jacksonville with habeas corpus writs and fruitless ;.2pris at bailte- the wrisojicrs tho steamer finally departed on (Sunday morning with tiio three prisoners, No ble, Sweat and Saxon, for Dry Tortu gas, which point sho reached on tlio next Tuesday morning, when thoy wore delivered over to tho command ant of tlio post, whore they will re main until tho timo of tlieir trial, which will bo next December. Tno steamor left tho same day, and altar iukiug forty tons coal at Key West, turned, hor bow homewards, arriving at Fcrnandina after a rough voyage on Saturday morning. Os tho prisoners we ascertained that they wore well behaved, and apparently men of good raising and good fa mi lies. Noble appears to bo prominent among them ; ho is a first- class den tist by profession, and euecoodod well iu his business; lio has a wife aud nine children in or near Lako city. Saxon was tho engraver ter tlio par ties. Thoy mado no effort to conceal their guilt, but refuse obstinately to toll i where their die« arc concealed. All their other apparatus was found. It is said thoy used a lot of old dies t hat wore stored away iu an old box in an apothecary store, in tho rear of which Noble kept his oflleo, at ono time, iu Brunswick. — Sac. Notes.
