Let empty flour-dust at my feet Remind me of th s buds you wear ; Let tho bird's quiet show how sweet Tbe far-off ringing made the air; Arni let your dew through frost look fair. Ts mourning you I shall rejoice. Qo: for the bitter word may bc A music to the famished voice; And on the dead face I my see - How bright im frown has been to me. Then in the haunted grass Til sit. Half tearful ic ..our withered place, And watch your lovely shadow flit Across To-morrow's suuny face. And vex her with your perfect grace. So. real Thing of blooi. and breath, I weary of you'wb?e you stay; Put on the dim, still charm of dea tb, r ade to a phantom, float away, And let me caR you Yesterday. [From the Atlantic for April. THE MORNING NAE. A Plea for Those who Sleep In the Morning. Tho fact is, that as lifo beames more con? centrated, and its pursuits more eager, short sleep and carly rising become impossible. We take moro sleep than our ancestors, and we take moro because we want more. Six hours Bleep will do very well for a ploughman or ?bricklayer, or any man who has no other ex? haustion than that produced by manual labor, and the sooner he takes it alter bis labor is over the better ; but for a man whose labor is mental, the stress vf whose rk is on his brain and nervous system, and who is tired in the evening with a day of mental application, Seither e&riy to bed nor early to rise is whole? some. He needs letting down to the level of repese. The longer the interval between thc active use of the brain and his. retirement to bod, the better his chance of sleep and recruit? ment. To him an hour after midnight is pro? bably as good as two boors before it, and even then his sleep'will no: so completely and quickly restore him as it will his neighbor who is only physically tired. He must not only go to' bed later, but lie longer. His best sleep probably liss in the early morning hours when all the nervous excitement has yessed away, and ho is in absolute rest, j There is, therefore, a good deal to be said in favor of the late habits of modern lifo. It was all very well for Englishmen to go to b. d early and get up early in the times of the Tudors, Plantagenets and Stuarts. Their lights were bad, and it was expensivo work to make a room I ] light enough tobo pleasant. They did not turn I < night into day as we do; but it was probably because UKW did not'know how to do it as We know. Gas is responsible for a good deal of our love of the long evening hours. A London house at this time of the y ear is never so bright as it is after dark. When the blinds are down and the shutters are closed, and the snug curtains are drawn, and the rcom is flooded with brilliant gas light, and the bright'fire is stirred up ir> the shining grate, ? nobody regrets the siokly daylight, which all day long had been feebly struggling-through the fog and smoke. Whysbonld a man wish, to shorten the brightest hours of the twenty four for tho sake of an extra hour or two of foggy, ineffectual morning ? It is not mere retaliation on our ancestors; it is simply the adaptation of their maxims to our modern needs to say that, for m my of us, ono waking hoar after ten o'clock at night is worth two hours before nine in the morning. We live double at that social evening time, and to waste such hours in sleep when there is a spare hour in-the morning which may just as well be spent in bed, is in unwise substitution of the old maxims for new experience. No doubt the old maxima were wise, and would still be wise if our conditions were of our great-grand? fathers; but while the maxims stand, the times have changed,-and we have changed with them. We must have society, and we can only have it at night; wo must have ampio rest, and we can only take it in the morning. The stress of hie with na is on the brain and nerves, and they can only bear the pressure by being al? lowed ..tc sleep out. For a man whos;? work ia intellectual to have sleep violently cut .short every morning would be half ?quiva? lent to suicide. True wisdom teaches ns to adapt oursei>?8 to oar circumstances. Na? ture does not cL\5nge, and what was good fox our fathers is don???leas good for os, pro? vided the conditions aro the same. Hoi whjen this' is not the case, we R^t not al? low their example to become a ty mu ny. ?ad' ern habits are not more readily indulgent than the habits of earlier times, and they best suit modern needs. THE CHINESE. How They Talk About Them In Cali? fornia. ' [From the San FTt?Cii?? Herald, February 08.] There is a growing feeling of indignation in this community at the utter disregard not only of 'decency, "brit of all our laws, recently ex? hibited by tho Chinese. It is horrible to reflect that' politicians are pursuing a course th&t ren? ders it even possible for these creatures to ob? tain a share in oar government-perhaps, a con? trolling interest in our elections. Fora long time pe^t theyhave exhibited a peaceful, almost a submissive spirit, rarely committing any gra? ver offence than pilfering exposed trifles; but soddenly they have changed their conduct, and for months. past the courts have been har? shened with investigations of cheir crimes-in "^estig&?i0!?8 th?t ?ome to naught; for these people have no regard for the sanctity of an oath, and; perjure themselves by wholesale. They hare introduced into our Christian city all tbo barbarous practises of their native land; they do cot hesitate to hatch conspiracies, ab? duct and assassinate, and what is worse, tbey employ aa organised gang .of bravos to slay their enemies or rivals, and gauge tho reward according to the punishment that may bo in? flicted upon them. A Chinaman can be paid to assassinate even with the death penalty Btaring him in the face, and caa coolly stipn late for the price of his neck' to be paid to his relatives in case he is hang. Although a cowardly lace when pitted man Sagainst man ia mortal fight, yet do they dis ay the most ex raordinary ste .id.ty and in florence when execution is about to be dono opon them. Ia their owa country a line of fifty criminals, condemned to be decapitated will sink upon their knees without coercion bend their heads forward so as to expose their necks, and stoically await the stroke of tho ex? ecutioner's sword. They hear the dull, heavy thud at the end of tbe Une, and see tbe ghast? ly head roll upou the pavement, without a eh ?dder. Sometmes the executioner stops midway in the Une to resharpen bis sword tbey listen without a tremor, and as he ap preaches t'usm closely and their turn comes next, they adjust their necks more convenient? ly for the stroke. There is nothing aDout this of the spirit that sometimes actuitos a Caucasian criminal "to die game"-it is siinpl. brutish stolidity. Creatures like these once roused to the commission of crime arc emi? nently dangerous in a community, for the death that threatens them. from the law baa no terrors to restrain them. It is said they have earned their barbarous practices to such an extent in this city as to ofl^r large rewards for the beads of their enemies. What can be done with such a people ? Th?y are soulless conscienceless, devilish. Their vile passions, lo g kept in restraint from submission to thc moral influence of the white man, are uow break? ing forth ia barbaric 'fury-they openly defy our laws, and with brazen insolence insult our civilization. Let as exhaust all the resources of tho law to restrain them, and if they fail, let ns advise them to retara homo. -Tho ladies ia Loudon are going to have theil club. This organization is not designed as an agency in the final establishment of equal rights. Not at all. It is merely an as? sociation of ladies for securing for themselves those independent enjoyments and comforts which the men have so long monopolized. They are to have a club-house, with reading rooms and Jounging-rooms, as a place or habitual resort. Tea will take the place of cigars, we suppose, and the gossip of society will serve for the horse-talk and politics of I be lords of creation. Le Courrier des Dames and 1* Belie Assembl?e will be read by the fair creatures with the same zest thar the men take in Bell's Life and the Times, and insipid young beauties will possibly ufare out of plate-glass windows with as vacant expression as the swells who keep Ihoir canes in their mouths and gaze by tho hour on tho passers-by in the street. Of course no men will be admitted within tho sacred precincts of thc club-house. This is au sge of progreEs. (Hommcrft?i. Kxports.

AND HE HAD A FEMALE CHILD, Whose name was Hexa Brlghtwater. and who was twenty-nine years old; who wore red stockings, red garters, metal tipped shoes, greon ip nc tac I os, and the prettiest rod hair the world ever set eye? on or into. Hexa, a true New England gal, chewed wads of pino gum, and sweetened her broth with onions. Hcza wasn't so much handsomer than a doll as to make thedoll faint, but she was intelligent; lu fact, in? telligence was her best hold but one; she was great on making baby garments, and had her trunks full, packed away, that she might bo ready as willing wbon the evil hour drew nigh, as she trusted lt would from year to year.

HOW OFrEM DO.WE HEAR THE COMPLAINT, From mother and luther, that tho son or daughter is not well; that they buve no appetite; that they feel languid; that thc head aches all the time; that tbey are growing thin and feeble, and that they have no life nor energy left. And the questions are often asked, What shall I do for them ? What shall I give thom?
