SLEEp.-There is no fact more clearly es-
tablished in the physiology of man than this
that the brain expendsits energies and itself
during the hours of wakefulness, and that
these are recupcrative during sleep; if the
recuperation docs not equal the expenditures,
the brain withers, this is insanity. Thus it
is, that in early English history, persons who
were condemned to death, by being prevent
ed from sleeping, always died raving maniacs;
thus it is, also, that those who are starved to
death become insane the brain is not nour-
ished and they cannot sleep. The practical
differences are three:
l. Those who think most, who do most
brain work, require most sleep. .
2. That time saved from necessary sleep
is infallibly destructive to mind, body and
estate.
3. Give yourself, your children, your SER
vant-give all who are under you the fullest
amount of sleep they will take, by compel
ling them to go to bed at some regularearly
hour and to rise in the morning the moment
they arahe Of themselves, and within fort
night, nature, with almost the regularity Of
the rising sun, will unloose the bonds of sleep,
the moment enough repose has been secured
for the wants of the system. This is the
only safe and sufficient rule; and, as to the
question, how much sleep any one requires,
each must be rule for himself; great Ma
ture will never fail to write it to the observer
under the regulations just given.-Journal

paused, apparently shocked at his half con-
fcssion; then resumed with a flushed face.
after an absence Of FIVE years he visited
his home again, wreck in body, though not
in fortune; for an aunt had died and left
him second legacy. 1 met him one day,
and we'll remember how heavily he leaned
upon my side, as we walked together through
the old familiar thorough fares. He said no.
thing about his absence, his prospects of the
future, Or his disapb5intlnents; but talked
most of the changes that had occurred in his
long stay across the water, till by the merest
accident, it seemed to me, we stood by the
old background
Mark expressed wish to walk through;
and did it not seem strange that, from weak
ness and WEAKNESS he sat down opposite
small, smooth, white stone, that was familiar
to neither of us-for 1 was somewhat of a
stranger, having been absent the past year.
And when I would have led him further, he
pushed aside the long, damp grass with his
cane, and fell to coming the inscription
Judge of my own surprise, as well as his re-

I don't like to dwell on the scene that
followed. Mark was smitten to the earth as
by thunderbolt; conscience his accuser-
There he pressed his forehead to the cold
stone, and sobbed as 1 never wish to hear a
man sob again, exclaiming between: %!

well, he staggered to his feet and stag
gered out of the churchyard, pressing his
soiled handkerchief to his mouth, and de-
pending on me for support. I saw that his
hand was stained, and by degrees the linen
crimsoned, growing every moment deeper
and more scarlet.
'Bennet, what is the matter = I cried, start
ling with alright; and closing my arm about
him, I beckoned to hackman who was pass
ing, helped the poor fellow into the carriage,
and by the time got him home, there was,
I assure you, but little life in him.
Since that he has never rallied until this
spell of fine weather come; he has been here

the marble, look at the design
We stepped into the shop. The man who
was working at the stone paused, with his
hand upon the top, and waited for u.s. It
was pretty design, calculated to arrest the
attention. Two cherubs held scroll, upon
which, amid flowers, fancifully arranged,
could be traced the words-NclNc God has
fo'yircn.' Then follows the namc-agc and
date were left out-and this quotation of
Holy Writ came next in order, 'For he that
sowe!h to the flesh, shall of the flesh reap
corruption but he that soweth to the Spirit,
shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting
Ah! my dear sir, said my friend after
long silence, 'were i an Atheist, the perfect
pattern which poor Marks recent life and
conversation afford would shake my doubts
ofChristianity, and scatter them tothc winds.
Does this not show'-and he pointed to the
stone-'a calm fearlessness of death and all
its grim appurtenances"
We walked home together in thought
full tender mood The next day missed
the chaise, and the next; and the following,
the monument was gone. The young man
was dead.

Attorney General of the State, Mr. Gar

passed over the veto, was passed without re-
gard 10 the Constitutional provisions in such
case, TO be followed. The ST. Louis lntelIi-
esr.eer takes calm and we think correct
view Of the subject. We should imagine
that especially the people of ST. Louis city
and county would have no desire 10 lose
another halt million of dollars by illegally
investing money in railroad or other kinds
Of stocks. The Inki!i9sncer says
1--WE hope that early steps may be taken
to have the question OF the constitniionality
Of the Law tried by the Supreme Court; AND
If that tribunal shall sustsiu Governor Price
and Mr.. Gardenhire, it will prove fortunate
that the evil of hasty and passionate ac'
of legislation was srrested SO soon, and be-
fore bonds were issued under the law. Il
the Governor and Mr. GBrdenhirs shall be
cyerruIed, the issue Of bonds may take
place. clear Of all cayil forever; but those
gentlemen will hardly ever be able to make
amends 10 The Railroad Companies and tc
ST, Louis for the evil that will result iron
this untimely delay"

net your trust in Princes" by adding the
words, cor Presidents either" Ii the re-
port OF his resignation is true, the Admins

He was willing to bow both body and soul

he displayed swift alaeriry in doing every
thing he was commanded. the same pro-
pensi,y 10 laundering which distinguished
his career in Mexico. has no less character
