The MYSTERY or SLEEP. Chambers
journal says that twelve hundred millions of
dreams make net work of wild fancies
nightly about our planet To go, if it were
possible, through this world Of sleep, would
be stranger process than that of exploring
the whole waking world, for, in sleep, every
living being is poet, from the baby that
etings in,its dreams to the breast of GOODIES
ses TO the eentenarian who with staff and
spectacies, hobbies about paradise at the
heels of seraphs. Sleeping and waking are
the two great phenomena of our existence.
What is done and thought in the every day
working world, where the ordinary business
of life is carried on, no living creature has
ever fully revealed to another. There are
retlcences III the confessions Of the most
frank-things which cannot, and therefore
never mEn ~ H1DiNttIal iEtas " hlah trans
cend the limits of language hopes which
the power of no fairy could satisfy-fear
which even Lucifer himself would fail to ex-
aggerate. If this portion of our life, which
is at least subjected to our own observations
cannot be fully and faithfully described, still
less can the other portion which defes even
our Own scrutiny, converts US into mere
spectators Of ourselves, sets free our actions
from the control Of our own will, and trans
forms US into so many passive spokes in the
great wheel of destiny. Whatever max be

A LITTLE RoMANcE.-The grandfatherso of
General Robert E. Lee was rival of General
Washington in lQYe affair. The object of
their affection was the beautiful Miss Grimes,
the first love of Washington, and whom he
celebrated as ''the lowland beauty" Lee was
successful and bore off the prize. The son of
this marriage, ""Light-Horse" Harry Lee, was
always held in great friendship by Washing
ton; and Irving, in his biography, suggests
that the memory of this tenderness for the
mother was not without its influence in con-
nection with the son.
This friendship continued between them
until the death Of ''the father of his coun-
try" Major General Henry Lee was gall
liant officer, the author of Memoirs of the
war in the South" Governor of Virginia in
1871; an advocate of the Federal Constitution
in the Virginia Convention; a member Of Con-
gress when Washington died; appointed by
Congress to deliver the eulogy on the occa-
sion, and in his eulogy originated the classic
words "First in war, first in peace, and first
in the hearts ofhis countrymen.-[M ontgome-

Mexicans are fighting Max and the Imper-

Peruvians are fighting the Spaniards, with
Chill to help. Then just over the way, Para
quay is fighting Brazil and the Argentine
Confederation. All Europe is getting ready
for big fight. The Russians are fighting
the Bokharras, the Chinese are fighting the

GoLp.-The following estimates have been
recently made Of the yield of gold and silver
during the eighteen years extending from
ls48 to 1866:
The total production of gold all over the
world during that period was valued at
Ss841,509O0O, OF at the average rate Of
Sls5, eas, 1888 per annum. The weight of the
whole would be 6, 157 tons, nine-tsnths fine,
or 5,542 tons 1avordupois of fine gold, equal
to sO74 tons per annum. The silver product
of the same period was valued at s. $40, $780,
900, or at the average of 500 ,022,222. The
weight of this nine-tenths fine would be
47,74S.tons, or $1,000 tons of pure silver,
equal to 1882 tons year, or in the proper
