Sleep: How Much Rest the Body Requires

Sleep.

Sir Philip Sidney calls sleep, “the poor man's wealth,” and, he might have added, it is every man's health. Men have often, according to their notions, attempted to limit or extend the hours of sleep. Thus the “immortal Alfred” of England divided the day into three portions of eight hours each, assigning one for refreshment and the health of the body by sleep, diet, and exercise, another for business, and the third for study and devotion. Bishop Taylor considered three hours’, and Richard Baxter four hours’, sleep sufficient for any man.

“Nature requires five, Custom gives seven, Laziness takes nine, And wickedness eleven.”

The error into which these and others have fallen arises not only from the fact that in this, as well as in other things, every man is a law to himself, but from the varying amount required in each individual case at different times, depending upon the amount of renovation required by the nervous and muscular systems. John Wesley, the distinguished founder of Methodism, who attained the age of eighty-eight, and who could command sleep on horseback, says very properly, in some curious remarks which he has left upon sleep, that no measure will do for all, nor will the same amount of sleep suffice even for the same person at all times. A person debilitated by sickness requires more of “tired nature’s sweet restorer” than one in vigorous health. More sleep is also necessary when the strength and spirits are exhausted by hard labor or severe mental efforts.—Everybody’s Journal.

SHE NEVER LEAVES HIM.—

Look at the career of a man as he passes through the world; that man visited by misfortunes! How often is he left by his fellow-men to sink under the weight of his afflictions unheeded, alone! One friend of his own sex forgets him, another abandons him, a third, perhaps, betrays him; but woman, faithful woman, follows him in his afflictions with unshaken affection; braves the changes of feeling, of his temper embittered by the disappointments of the world, with the highest of all virtue; resigned patience ministers to his wants, even when her own are hard and pressing; she weeps with him, tear for tear, in his distresses, and is the first to catch and reflect a ray of joy, should but one light up his countenance in the midst of his sufferings; and she never leaves him in his misery while there remains one act of love, duty, or compassion, to be performed. And at last, when life and sorrow end together, she follows him to the tomb with an ardor of affection which death itself cannot destroy.

A Godless House.

A LITTLE boy three years old, whose father was irreligious, spent several months in the dwelling of a godly family, where he was taught the simple elements of divine truth.

The good seed fell into good and tender soil, and the child learned to note the difference between a prayerless and a Christian dwelling. One day, as some one was conversing with the little fellow about the great and good God, the child said:

“We haven't got any God at my papa’s house.”

Alas! how many such houses there are in our world and land—houses where there is no prayer, no praise, no worship, no God! And what homes are they for children? ay, and for men and women too? How much better is the pure atmosphere of Christian love than the cold selfish worldliness of a godless home!

Said an ungodly man, “I never was so near Heaven, and probably never shall be again, as when I spent a day in the house of Ebenezer Brown,” a godly Scotchman, who guided his household in the fear of the Lord.

Would that there were more such homes, the memory of which might shed a holy savor over many a wanderer's heart, and lead the sad and lonely sons of sorrow and of tears to look forward to the gladness of the eternal gathering beyond the toils and tears and trials of this weary pilgrimage. To such homes the weary come for rest, and the troubled for consolation. The Son of Peace is there. Blessed be such homes! and may ours ever be of this number!—British Workman.

Fashion: Its Tyranny Over Health and Character

By Jennie R. Trembley

Fashion.

BY JENNIE R. TREMBLEY.

Much has been said and written in regard to fashion, of its being a mighty tyrant, of its evil effects upon those who bow at its shrine; and yet how few, how very few, are willing to separate themselves from its galling chains, how few have the moral courage to shake off the shackles, and free themselves from its bondage. That it requires much courage, firmness, and decision, to do this, I am aware. Not only is the physical health sadly affected by it, but it has much to do with molding the character, and is detrimental to good morals and to the spiritual condition of the people. There is no such thing as living for God, Heaven, and the higher life, and at the same time following after the fashions of the world.

Millions upon millions of money are annually expended simply for fashion’s sake, without the individuals’ receiving any benefit whatever; and not only so, but many, if not all, receive injury thereby. Were these means put to a sacred use, how much good might be accomplished, how much mankind might be benefited, and how much happier should we be. But no! Dame Fashion holds us as with iron chains.

A lady from one of the largest western cities came to the Health Institute at Battle Creek for treatment. She was the wife of an eminent man, and her position in life seemed to demand that she should do as others do, keep up with the fashions. But this was not in harmony with her feelings, and it told upon her health. She was endowed with a powerful intellect, a noble mind; but fashion was killing her, it was fast sapping the life blood from her veins. Said she, “I wish I could tell you the feelings of relief I felt as the great city receded from my view, and I knew that I was well on my way to this quiet retreat, freed, for a time at least, from the rounds of fashionable life.” Here was an individual created in the likeness of our divine Lord, with brilliant intellect, a large amount of talent, which was being daily sacrificed at the altar of fashion. Were this the only instance of the kind, it would not be mentioned; but there are thousands of similar cases. I ask, What account will finally be rendered to the Creator of these gifts for the manner in which they are used?

I do not expect with my feeble pen to revolutionize the world, or to check the rage of fashion in the least degree; but could I induce even one to turn and face the daring foe, and free herself from her bondage, I should be amply rewarded for the labor of a life-time. As for myself, I am resolved to live, dress, and act, in accordance with nature’s laws, and with reference to life, health, and happiness. If fashion frowns, let her frown.—Health Reformer.

FASHIONABLE LITERATURE OF THE DAY.—

The quality of our current literature is infinitely below the quantity. Vice swarms like wasps on every book-seller’s shelf. Sensational and disgusting pictures are presented by pen and pencil to seduce the young into the evil way, and turn our people into a nation of Parisians.

Bad books struck the most fatal blows that have recently fallen on Paris. Fictitious literature deluged their city with the sensual broodings that produced the Commune. A nation growing into manhood cannot thrive on such literary food any more than a body’s stomach can thrive on alcohol.—Good Health.

Obituary Notices.

By S. B. Whitney

Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth.

Died, in Bangor, N. Y., Aug. 17, 1871, of typhoid fever, sister Louisa Buel, wife of Adam Buel, in the forty-first year of her age. Sister Buel has been a consistent believer of the present truth for a number of years, and although her last sickness deprived her the use of her mental powers in a great measure, yet her closing experience was quite satisfactory, and we laid her away in hope. She leaves a husband and three children to mourn her loss, which they deeply feel. Funeral discourse from 1 Cor. 15:26. S. B. Whitney.

Mexican Attacks on American Vessels Threaten War

Attacks on American vessels by parties of Mexicans, in the waters of the Rio Grande, threaten to lead to a war between Mexico and the United States.

Affairs in France seem to be drifting into chaos. Thiers assumes the air of a dictator. Orleanists and Bonapartists are weaving all over the country a complicated web of intrigues in behalf of their respective parties. The Germans are threatening to send more troops into that country to avenge German murders in some parts of the country. The prospects for peace and prosperity there are, therefore, not very encouraging.

There has been no time for many years when the moral sense of the community was so profoundly stirred as it is at present. A remarkable succession of startling crimes and disasters has arrested and shocked the public attention, until men have been compelled seriously to ask themselves whether these things are symptoms of moral rottenness throughout the body politic. The murder of Rogers in a prominent street, in broad daylight, and the escape of the assassins; the murders of Nathan and of Foster; the explosion of the “Westfield,” “Starbuck,” and “Ocean Wave”; the wreck of the “Lodona”; the railroad slaughter near Boston; and, finally, the sickening “trunk tragedy,” have followed each other so closely as to seem parts of an unbroken series. And, that no element of appalling impressiveness might be wanting, earthquakes and hurricanes and storms have added their part to this “summer of horrors.”

Ohio Camp-Meeting.

Providence permitting, the Ohio Camp-meeting will be held near the city of Mansfield, Richland Co., Ohio, Sept. 28–Oct. 3, in a beautiful grove containing about forty acres, located one-half mile north of the city, and a half mile north of the Atlantic & Great Western depot. We earnestly invite the labor of Bro. and sister White and such other help as may accompany them. We will endeavor to do all we can to relieve them from burdens, that they may faithfully discharge every duty they owe to God and their fellow-men We earnestly invite all the churches and scattered brethren to attend this meeting. Come prepared to work for the Lord, for such opportunities come but once a year. Let no worldly interest rob you of the blessing you may receive at this meeting. Invite your friends to come with you. We are anxious that this State should be well represented, and that all will do everything they can to make the meeting a success.

There will be a provision stand and a supply of pure soft water kept upon the ground, and other accommodations will be made as far as necessary. All small companies or individuals wishing tents can, if they desire to do so, send their orders immediately with draft or postoffice order to Wm. Chinnock, North Bloomfield, Trumbull Co., Ohio, and the tents will be furnished on the camp ground ready to occupy. They can be purchased of G. F. Foster, Chicago, Ill., at the following rates: 12x16, of ten oz. duck, $36.00. 12x18, $39.20. These tents will accommodate from ten to twelve persons, are more desirable than larger ones, and were recommended by Bro. White at our last camp-meeting. The Ohio tent will be pitched upon the ground.

Wm. Chinnock, J. Q. A. Haughey, Geo. Bisel, Ohio Conference Committee.

The next quarterly meeting of the church at Ulysses, Pa., will be held at the Raymond school-house, Sept. 23 and 24. We hope to see a general attendance. By order of the Church.

One Day’s Record.

By V. S.

A DAILY paper of last week contained the following headings of news articles, in almost consecutive order. They show the current of events at the present time; for what this paper publishes is but a specimen of that with which all the papers of the land are teeming to-day:

“Continued Ravages of Cholera in Russia—Exciting Scenes in the French Assembly—Terrible Coal Mine Disaster—Railroad Accidents—Marine Disaster—Workmen’s Strike—Volcanic Eruption—The Persian Famine—The Yellow Fever in Brazil—Hurricanes and Earthquakes in the West Indies—Outrages upon American Shipping by the Mexicans—Fires and Fatal Accidents—Frauds in the New York City Treasury—Three cases of Wife Murder—A Tragedy in Illinois—Murder of Two Florida Officials by a Negro Desperado—Fatal Stabbing Affray in Cincinnati.”

Such are the events which are the order of the day. The disturbances in nature find a counterpart in the willful crimes of man. V. S.

Downfall of the Pope.

The Italian inhabitants of New York, assisted by delegations of their countrymen from other cities, celebrated on the 25th inst. the unity of Italy accomplished by the occupation of Rome and the displacement of the temporal power of the pope. The tone of the participants was earnestly anti-papal. Prof. Corradi made a brief address from which we make the following extract:

“Rome, the Eternal City, is now in the possession of the Italians—the legitimate owners. This fact, we think, is of great material importance to Italy, and is the natural result of what occurred before the fall of despotic power, and the precipitate descent of the pope, who was believed invincible, but whose rule was only founded on falsehood and corruption. It had the hate of the people because it strove to dominate by ignorance, and was protected by tyrants. By a strange coincidence of human vicissitudes, two colossi sustaining each other—Napoleon and the pope—fell at the same moment, the fall of the one causing the fall of the other, never, we hope, to rise again. Both are execrated and forgotten. When the ideas of progress and liberty shall make way through the darkness of despotism, and join all nations as one family, the bayonet and other instruments of oppression to keep the people down will be powerless. I hope the day will come when the people can pay back with usury the tyrants who have oppressed them. The cry then will be, ‘Beware of the vanquished!’ [Great cheering.]”

Roman Catholic Opposition to Papal Infallibility Grows

A CORRESPONDENT writing from Rome, August 12, says that several of the most eminent cardinals and bishops, who are strong infallibilists, are beginning to become reconciled to the political situation. Cardinals are freely appearing in the streets, and meet with respectful sympathy and regard from the citizens.

BERLIN, Sept. 5.—The Prussian Cross Gazette says it was decided at Gastein to leave the Roman question entirely to Italy.

ROME, Sept. 5.—The anniversary of the occupation of Rome by the Italians will be celebrated this year by the passage of the National Guards through the streets, theatrical entertainments, etc.

LATE German advices show that the Roman Catholic movement against Papal infallibility in Austria, Prussia, Switzerland, Silesia, Hungary, and elsewhere, is gaining strength and adherents everywhere. Over 1,000 Catholic families in Vienna alone subscribed to Dr. Dollinger's views, in four days after they had been promulgated. All the indications are that an entirely new Catholic party, very powerful and earnest, will be formed against Papal pretension, and that the Roman Church must move with the times, become partially rational, or lose all influence. The new party claims that it is the old and true Catholic party, and protests against the absurd assumptions of Antonelli and the Jesuits.

THE Rev. Mr. Ash, the Chaplain of the British Legation at Buenos Ayres, has published a pamphlet respecting the late pestilence there, from which it appears that out of a population of 180,000 about two-thirds fled, and about 20,000 perished, the mortality ranging from 400 to 600 per diem—more than 1 per cent of the inhabitants. The city is said to have been reeking with filth, “steaming like a dung-hill whenever a hot sun came after a rain-fall.” The River Plate was so poisoned that the fish died in it, yet this water was what the inhabitants had to drink. There were no drainage facilities, and what wells there were in the city were utterly unfit for use. On the 10th of April there were 540 interments. On the 16th the pestilence began visibly to decline; but it will require years to repair the ravages of the epidemic.

THE Japanese government has commenced coining a national money, after the American decimal system, and of the American value, the dollar being taken as a unit. This is a practical triumph of American influence in the East which indicates our growing importance in that quarter.

Sodom the Second.

THERE has been much discussion of late concerning “the social evil” and how to deal with it. St. Louis has undertaken to regulate it by license and inspection like any legitimate employment. Other cities and towns ignore it in their legislation, and only repress its most odious manifestations. The spiritualists and some of the “woman suffragists” are laboring to lessen the measure of blame with which society regards the crime of prostitution. The one right and practicable method for government to pursue—persistent and vigorous suppression—is nowhere attempted. Meanwhile the evil and the incitements to it are steadily increasing. The fact that licentiousness is a fearful element in the social condition of any nation, and brings after it rapid and terrible retribution, must be our excuse for noticing such facts as the following published in the New York Tribune: “The annual pic-nic of the Female Parasol and Umbrella Makers’ Union was held at Lion Park at One Hundred and Tenth Street and Eighth Avenue. About 6,000 persons were present on the dancing platform. With the exception of two personal encounters, tolerable order prevailed; but the grounds, according to an eye-witness, were the scene of debauchery without parallel. Men and women seemed to have forgotten that there is such a word as decency, and gave the rein to unbridled passion, without the slightest effort at concealment. Nor was there the slightest attempt at interference on the part of the police.”—Christian Statesman.
