I Early rising is essential to promoto our j
health, happiness, ana luture well.ire.
ll.is is tue lesnmony pi an pnys.mog.-.s,
and a great many of the most illustrious
m.'ii of the past and present ages. That
it is conducive to health, will scarcely be
contradicted bv anv. cicent those who fe.d
stron.Mncliuatioufora '-little more sleen.
and , lu.iemorc slumber.and a little more
folding of the hands to sleep." They per-
mit this evd propensity to run away with
their better jtidgmeut, and, to maiutam
what they practice, they say, if they Jo
not get their morning nap, they feel the
cITects of it all day. This is contrary to
the laws of nature, and consequently can
nut be true
' ... .

i I witnessed a ehort time airo, iu one f
our higher courts, bautiful illustration
' of the simplicity and poirer oftru'h. A
little girl niuo years of age was offered as
: a witness ag'tinst a prisont r who was ou
i trial f jr a felony eomznttcl in lur father'
! hnu-e. "Mow, Etuily," paid the counsel
1 for the rrisoner. up ja her being effeicd as
a witness, "I desire to know if jou uulr-
- - -
stand the Caturo of on oath ?" ' I d. n't
know what you mean," wes the eiicpht
answer. "Thero, your Honor," suid tho
counsel, addressing the eourt, "is any
thing further necessary to demonstrate tho
; validity of rny objection ? This witnen
I should be ref old. She d x:s not eompro
, bend the nature of an oath."
j "Let ns see," said the Judge. "Com?
, bcrc,rny daughter." Assured by tho kind
! tone and manner of the Judge, the chill
' stepped toward him.ani looked confidingly
', up iu his fa?e, with a cilm, clear eye, and
in a manner so artless anl frank, that it
went straight to tho heart. "Did you
ever take an oath?" inquired the Judge.
The little girl stepped hick with a bk of
horror, an 1 tha red bloal inia'.Ijl in a
blush ail over her face and neck, as sho
' answered, "St, sir." She thjug'it he in-
; tended to muiro if sue ever blasphemed.
"I do nit uijiq that,"sail the JaJgc,who
saw her mistake, "I nicua wero you ever
' a witness before?" "No, sir, I ncry was
in court before," wis thj aoiwer. ila
; handed her tho Bible, epea. "Dj yosi
! knew that book, my daughter ?" She look
i cd at it and answered, "1'es, sir, it is tha
i Bible." "Do you ever read it?" he asked.
"Yes, sir, every evening." "Can you tell
me what the Bible is ?"icju!re J the Judge.
"It is the word cf the great God," tho
, answered. "Well, p'.aee your baud upoa
I this Bible, and li-ten to what I say," anl
J he repeated slowly asl solemnly tho Oath
I usually administtre i to witnesses. "Now,"
said the Judge, "you have been sw.'rn as
, a witness, wi.i you tell ma whnt will befall
: you if you do not tell the truth?" "I
shall be shut cp in the State Prison," an
' swered the child. "Anything elsc?"ak
! ed the Judge. "I shall never go to llea
; vcd," she replied.
i "How do you know this ?" asked the
I Judge again. Tbe chill toek tho liiblo
' and turuing rapidly to the chapter contain
ing the Commandments, pointed to the
iniunction. "Thou ebalt not bear false
w;lnc.S5 azniost thy neighbor." "I learned
that." sbu said, "before I could read.
! "Has any one talked with you about your
: being a witness in court here against thi
j man ?" enquired the Judge. ""cs, sir,"
she replied. "My mother heard they
i wanted me to be a witness, and last night
, she called me to ber room and asked mo
i to tell her the Ten Commandments, and
then we kneeled down together, and sho
prayed that I might understand how
wicked it was to bear false witness against
my neighbor, and that God would help me,
a little child, to te'I the truth as it waa
before Him. And when I camo up hero
with father, she kissed me, and toll me to
remember tho ninth Commandment, and
that God wosll hear every woid lLat I
said." "Do you believe this ?" asked iho
Judge, while a tear glistened iu his eja
and his lip quivered with emotion. "Yes,
sir," said the child, with a voice and man
ner that "bowe l her conviction of the
truth was perfect. 'tjjd bless you, my
child," said the Judge, "you have a good
mother. This witness is competent," ho
continued. "Were I on trial for my life,
and innocent of tbe charge against me, I
would pray God f ir such a witness as this.
Let her b examined."
' She told her story with the simplicity

nient in nothing. The truth, sj spoken
by that little chilJ, wis sublime. F!-e-
hood und perjury had preceded hrr ttsti
mory. The prisoner had entrenched him
self ia lies, until he deemed himself im
pregnable. Witnesses had f!.-'i5.id facts
ia his favor,and villainy had manufactured
f r hini a slnui defence. But, before her
testimony, falsehood was scattered liko
chaff. Tha little- child, f.-r wh.nu a mo
ther hnl prayed for strength t b." given
her to speak tho tru'h ss it was leforo
God, broke the cutimog devices of matured
villainy to pieces like a potter's vest!.
The strength that her mother frayed f. r
was given ber, aJ tho sublime aud ten:
