LIVING WITHOUT SLEEP.-A recent num-
Der of the Boston Medical and Surgical
journal contains letter from Mr. Robert
+. Gourlay. giving an account of his extra
ordinary siecplcsSHcsS According to Mr.
G.'s own account he was first bcrelt of
sleep in the year 1888 for SIX weeks. when
about 40 years Of age. Prior to that time
he had never suffered for want of sleep, al
though at times little suiiiced for refresh
ment. Mr.. q. was confined in London. ms
he alleges, by British tyranny, three .years
and eight months, and it was during this
period he thinks, that a habit OF living with
out sleep began TO form. During his con-
hnemeni he felt very little need of sleep, aud
the greater part of his time in bed, which
was never more than six hours in the twen-
ty-lour, was given TO reveries, chiefly, he de-
clares as to schemes for lettering the con-
dition ofthe laboring poor of England, &c,
Soon after his liberation, having first Wis
tied Scotland, he left Edinburg for America
He had no sleep until he reached'Liverpool
where he took warm bath before going to
bed This had the desired effect, and pro-
cured for him few hours of repose. The
next morning he embarked for n. York
which he reached in ~ days, without hav-
ing one wink of sleep. Immediately on
landing at n. York he procured warm
bath, got into comfortable bed and slept
soundy. From that time forward he did
not sleep for three years lie took laud-
mum, but that had no effect he drank wills
key, in the hope that it would induce sleep
il only made him sick
In the early part of 1887, while in Ohio,
he was attacked with crysipelas in the leg
and doring five months was without Sleep
Mr. G. had recovered his health in some de-
gree, when he received intelligence of the
death Of two of his children lie then lay
two weeks in great agony, aud from that
time to this, period of four years and six
months, he has been entirely deprived 4of
sleep. The last six months of his life have
been spent in Boston. His health has much
improved, and he entertaius hope that as
soon as he is able to take exercise he will
recover, On various occasions of late he
has been almost asleep.

Grating on the Mountain Ask.-It is
well known that the mountain ash. s0rbHs
americana, is one Of the most beautiful or
namental trees, native in the Canadas and
most Northern part Of the United States !;
and that il is much cultivated for planting
in grounds, and the public avenues in many
places where less hardy trees cannot thrive.
1t is also well known that in those districts
where the mountain ash ihrives best, il has
been found very difficult to propagate and
bring to maturity the apple and the pear, of
which the country bordering on the 45th
degree of latitude in this State and the Can
adas, may serve as an example. 1t is now
found that this beautiful tree NAV be con-
verted to still more useful purpose than
that of mere ornament, viz that of stocks
for the propagation of the apple and pear,
for which it has been proved to be admira-
bly, adapted. .a.s
AT a late meeting of the London Horti-
cultural society, a communication was re-
ceived from Mr. Hornby, who has been re-
residing in Switzerland, stating that the
grating Of pears on the ash was there gene
rally practised and that OH some high pla-
teams of the mountains, where The climate
and soil forbid the natural growth Of the APP
Pile orpear they are now grown with per-
feet success, ''the effect being 20 retard the
blossoms and give vigor TO the constitution. y
The flesh or flavor Of The fruit was not at
all effected and the practice was success
ful whether budding or grating was adopt
ed. 1t was found necessary that no shoot
which The stock might make the first year
should be taken off, but afterwards all such
growth must be cut away, and the graft a
lone remain. f1H H7.Hc o'
Mr. Thomson, gardner of the Society,
stated in reference to this communication,
that the mountain ash was one Of the stocks
Oh which pears were grated in the Society's
garden. As the pear graft increases faster
than the ash stock, he inferred that the tree
could not be as long lived, as the mountain
ash is much harder than the ounce, less
liable to be attacked by insects, and would
thrive in almost any soil, it might be advan-
tageously used in many situations.-Waiae
