Hon JoKE.-Soon after the close Of the
American Revolution, deputation Of Indian
chiefs having some business TO transact with the
Governor, were invited 10 dine with some Of the
officials in Philadelphia. During the repast, the
eyes Of young chief were attracted TO a castor
Of mustard having in tia spoon ready for use.-
Tempted by its bright color, he gently drew il to-
ward him, and soon had briming spoonful ia his
mouth. Instantly detecting his mistake, he new
ertheess had the fortitude 10 swallow il although
il forced the tears from his eyes.
A chief opposite, at the table, who had observ-
ed the consequence, but not the cause, asked him
"what he was crying fort"
lie replied that he was thinking Of his father
who was killed in battle"
Soon after, the questioBer himself, prompted by
curiosity, made the same experiment, with the
same result, and in turn was asked by the young
Sachem, "what he was crying forlu
Because you were not killed when your faith
er was" was the prompt reply.

SLEEP.

The Scientific American thus discourses on the
subject Of sleep:
"No person of active mind should try to pre-
vent sleep, which, in such persons, only comes
when rest is indispensable to the continuance Of
health. In fact, sleep once in twenty-four hours
is as essential TO the existence of mammaa a.
the momentary respiration of fresh air.. The most
unfavorable condition Of sleep cannot prevent its
approach. Coachmen slumber on their coaches
and couriers on their horses, while soldiers fall
asleep on the field Of battle, amidst all the noise
and the tumult of war. During the retreat Of
Sir John Moore, several of the British soldiers
were reported to have fallen asleep on the march.
and yet they continued walking onward.
The most violent passions and excitement Of
mind cannot preserve even powerful minds from
sleep; thus Alexander the Great slept on the field
Of Arbela and Napoleon on that Of Austerlitz.
Even stripes and torture cannot keep of Sleep as
criminals have been known to sleep on the rack.
Noises which serve at first 10 drive away sleep.
soon become indispensable to its existence; thus
stage-coach stopping to change horses, wakes
all the passengers. The proprietor Of an iron
forge, who slept close to the din Of hammers
forges, and blast furnaces, would awake if there
and sick miller who had his mill stopped on
that account passed sleepless nights till the mill
resumed its usual noise. Homer, in the Iliad,
elegantly represents sleep as overcoming all men,
and even the Gods, excepting Jupiter alone.
The length Of time passed in sleep is not the
same IN all men it varies in different individuals
and at different ages; bat It cannot be determined
from the time passed in sleep, relative to the
strength or energy of the body or mind. From
SIX TO nine hours IS the average proportion. yei
the Roman emperor, Caligula, slept only three
hours. Frederick Of Prussia and DR.. John Hun
ter consumed only four OF FIVE hours in repose.
while the great Sdpio slept during eight
A rich and LAZY citizen viii slumber from ten to
twelve hours daiy II is during infancy that sleep
is longer and more profound. Women also sleep
longer than men, and yOung men longer than
old men.
