BRAIN SPEcrREs.-The brain makes
ghosts, both sleeping and waking. \
man was lying in troubled sleep when a
phantom, with the cold hand Of death,
siezed his right arm. Awakingi in hor-
ror, he found upon his arm still the i'm
preston of the hand of the corpse, and
it was only after rejecting that he
found the terrible apparition to be due
to the deadening of his own left hand,
of frosty night, which hal subsequen-
tly grasped his right arm. Thisw as
a real ghost of the brain, winch the
wakening of the senses and the under
standing explained. NJ. Gratiolet mar
rates dream of his own which is singu-
larly illustrative Of his how the brain
makes ghosts in sleep. Many years
ago when occupied in studying the or
ganization of the brain he prepared a
great number both of the human and
animal brains. He carefully stripped
off the membranes, and placed the brains
in alcohol. Such were his daily occu-
pations, when one night he thought he
had taken out his own brain from his
skull. He stripped it ofits membranes.
He put it in alcohol, and then he fancied
he took his brains cut of the alcohol and
replaced them in his skull. But, con-
tracted by the action of the spirit, they
were much reduced in size and did not
at all fill up the skull. He felt it shuf-
fling about in his head. This feeling
threw him into such great perplexity
that he awoke with start, as if from
nightmare. NJ. Gratiolet every time he
prepared the brain of man must have
felt that his own resembled it. This
impression awakening in brain imper-
fectly asleep, whilst neither the senses
nor the Judgment were active, the ply
siologist carried on an operation in his
sleep which probably had often occur
red to his fancy when at his work, and
which had then been summarily dismis-
sed very frequently. \ pursuit which
at last had become one of routine, and
the association of himself with his study,
explain the bizarre and CHASTITY dreams
of NJ. Gratiolet. A sensation from the
gripe of a cold hand, misinterpreted by
the imagination acting without the aid
of the discerning faculties, account:
for the CHASTITY vision Of the other sleep
er.-.M the Year Round.

THE UNION RECORD.
An Old Rebels Story.


A travelling correspondent recently
fell in with Tennesseean near Chat
tanooga, who unbosomed himself as
follows:
clam rebel, or rather | was one.
/, of course, being a Southern man,
though | must do as others did, fight for
my rights, and You can see how the
thing has turned out as well as can.
Just look at my farm Of $50 acres Of as
good land as ever laid out Of doors.
There are not 1000 rails left on my
place. My niggers are all gone that
are worth anything. The gals, and
children, and old men are left on my
hands to support. All my horses and
mules are gone, and the best wagon.
We thought there would be no war.
The leading men told US so. Only put
on bold face and secede, and We can
have everything our own way down here
just for the asking. Yes, we did have
our own way over the left.
First comes the rebel army. They
would not steal thing-not they. So
| went into a big speculation and sold
them everything we could spare and
took their money for pay. Thousands
Of dollars they paid me--but they might
as well have stolen it-for only yester-
day | sold $4,000 of their money for
200,and took mans note for that-that
is rather doubtful. Besides, the rebels
steal just as much from me as the
Union men did, with the exception of
Gen. Sherman's corps. They beat any
thieves | ever saw, rebel or Union.-
They found things that had buried
and had forgotten myself where | had
hid them. They seemed to be natural
thieves-wo be to those poor Alabam-
ians down at Selma if Sherman IS really
there.
A few such corps as they are would
carry the whole Confederacy off on their
backs in two months time, and steal the
shoes off of jeff. Davis's feet, and he
would never find them out until it was
too late. have just found out, within
few months, that We have made a
great mistake down here in the South
on this niger question, and | might
have found it out years ago if | had
only thought a little. came
into this beautiful valley some thirty
years since with only few hundred
dollars, and went to work with my own
hands, and prospered beyond my expec-
tations-paid for all my land here, built
this house and out buildings, got several
thousand ahead, and thought must buy
some niggers, and l tell you the honest
truth when | say from that time | have
never made one cent. The niggers
wasted and eat up all my profits.
When the Federals began to come
down in this region many of my neigh
bors run their niggers away South, and
urged me to do the same, but refused,
and told them that if the niggcrs want
ed to go South or North, they might 90,
if they wanted to stay with me | would
do the best | could for them. This Mig
ger question is played out, and we have
got to try another kind of civilization
down here We have been cheating
ourselves long enough. | have taken
the amnesty oath and intend stickhy
to it now. Although ali rather old, |
think we can fence up small farm on
the old one, that is, if Sherman don't
come this way again, and make living
anyhow, and leave my children a free
inheritance, if they ever get ont of the
rebel army alive"
