THE BRAIN IN SLErp.--The princi-
pal evidence as to the state of the hui
man brain in sleep is derived from the
observation Of woman in Montpelier
a case we'll known and often quoted.
She had lost a portion of the skull
cap, and the brain and its membranes
were exposed. When she was in
deep or sound sleep the brain lay in
the skull almost motionless; when she
when her dreams, which she related
on waking, were vivid or interesting,
the brain was protruded through the
cranial aperture. This condition lias
also been experimentally brought
about and observed in animals, end
the same result has been seen, name
ly, that in sleep the surface of the
brain and its membranes became pale
the vein ceased to be distended, and
only few small vessels containing
arterial blood were discernible.

EFrTcrs or EMANCIPATION IN Russia.
"A ST. Petersburg correspondent of
Tic PaN Nal Gazette writes as follows:
"The continuation of the old despotic
system of the Gar, in tic midst OF
far reaching social reforms introduced
among classes of the, population who
are totally unpreparcd for them, has
produced state of anarchy in Russia
which it is difficult for those to realize
who only see what the government
chooses to show the foreigner, but are
ignorant:of the evils VIII CHI undermine
its power. 1t is scarcely possible to
describe in terms too strong, the null
tiplicity of evils under which the coun-
try is now laboring. Fourteen gov
ernments in the centre of Russia, re-
presenting a population of twenty five
millions of inhabitants, are almost
without any food for man or beast
This result is not due to any calamity,
for tire crops have been satisfactory,
Tut to tho inertness and negligence Of
the ;,easantry, who, having no one to
urge them to work, have given them
selves up to their besetting vice of
drunkenness. .6

MANUAL LABOR. Hugh Miller, than
whom none knew better the strength
and Weakness belonging to the lot Of
labor, stated the result of his expert
enco to be, that work, even tho hard
est, is full of pleasure and materials
for self-improvcment He held hon.
est labor to be the best Of teachers,
aud that the school of toll is the mob
lest of schools--save only the Chris
tian onc--that is a school in which
the ability of. being useful is impart-
ed, the spirit of independence learnt,
and the habit of persevering effort ac-
quired. lie was even of opinion that
the training of the mechanic by the
exercise which it gives to his observ-
ant faculties, from his daily dealings
with things, actual and practical, and
the close experience of life, which he
acquires, better fits him for picking
his way through the journey of life,
and is more favorable to his growth
as man emphatically speaking, than
the training afforded by any other

MEXICO.

- Washington Nov. 10.
Tho navy department has received
information of the arrival of the Tai
lapoosa at Galveston, from off Tampi-
co. No.forcign vessels of war were
off the river or in the port of Tampi-
co on the 10Th of October, and only
one American vessel in the harbor,
Tampico is at present in command of
Colonel Gomez, with force Of 500
mon, controlling customs and eniorc-
ing payment of loans. The authori-
ties of Victoria, the capital of tho
State, do not recognize those of Tam
pico, and their gucrrillas seizo all
goods found en- route for tho interior
markets dispatched from the Tampi-
co custom house. BY letters from
San Luis Potosi it is asccrtained that
Mejia and Dupire are to leave that
place in the early part of November
with an expeditionary force for the
recapturo of Tampico. General Pa
vor who has n force Of 1900 or 900
men in the Hanstica, and is now hold
ing Tampico, has issued a proclama-
ton declaring Puebla open to foreign
commerce, which it is feared will lead
to open hostility between the forces
under his command aud those under
Colonel Gomez. Under this state Of
affairs the inhabitants of Tampico are
in constant dread Of the most serious
disorders and probability of the in
discriminate plumber of the town.
GALVESTON TEXAS, Nov. 10.
The Brownsville Courier, Of Noyem-
Der 18th, reports spirited attack on
Matamoras on the 9th. Skirmishes
lasted several hours, the assaulting
party, under Tapia, gaining advantage
but distrusting Cortinas, he did not
follow up his success. The defenders
lost twenty-eight prisoners, and Col.
Riaz. their commander, was arrested
for bad conduct on tho field. On the
night Of the 10th Tapia died of chol-
era. This event will change the cur
rent Of events. The arrival Of the
Escobedo is reported.

all that time, bitter public enemy,
because at Cleveland, no dared, with
other brave and true men, to raise his
voice in opposition to the action of tho
majority.
Such is the redress, this public
opinion of the majority offers to the
citizen Suppose he appeals to the
Executive. What is the result ? We
have seen. President johnson at
tempted TO use his power in legitimate
opposition to the wild and destructive
measures of the majority. His votoes
were overridden and he himself threat
ened with impeachment. And now,
scarcely a day passes but what the
telegraph informs of some Congress
man who is spending his time in draw
ing articles of impeachment, to secure
the Presidents deposition from Office.
Thus this majority propose, not only
to disregard the Constitution, but TO
sweep out of existence every obstacle
to the unlimited exercise of absolute
and irresponsible power. And, as
against this purpose, the President is
as powerless as the humblcst citizen.
With these facts before us, who
does not perceive that De Tocqueville's
objection has some foundation TO rest
upon, and that unless wiser counsels
prevail with the dominant party, and
the people more carefully watch the
course of events, and demand of their
party leaders a stricter regard for TIE
fundamental law of the land, the
grounds of that objection will become
patent in the destruction Of popular
liberty.

SNARLISo.-Tho way not to be
healthy or happy is to keep up an in
cessant snarling. If you want to
grow lean cadaverous, and unlovely,
excite yourself continually about mat
tiers you know nothing about Ac-
cuse other people Of wrong doing in
cessantly and you will find but little
time to see any wrong in yourself =
We wish here and now to inform all
mon of irritable dispositions that they
will live longer if they only keep cool.
If such men want to die we have
nothing to say; snarling will kill
about as quick as any thing we know.

Atrocious Outrage on the Wife OF a
Clergyman by Negro.

The Boston papers state that bru-
tai and outrageous assault was com-
mitted last Friday forenoon on the
person of the wife of Rev. David A
WATSON residing on Spring Hill, Som
ervillo, by colored man, supposed to
DO one James Robertson, who has
been hanging around the vicinity and
Cambridge for the past few days.
The black william entered the house
about 10 o'clock, and finding the lady
alone, made foul proposal to her,
accompanying it with threats of vio-
lence, and even death, if she did not
submit. In addition to her entreat-
les to be spared from his british pas
sion, she held out sum of money,
which he finally took, and also pis-
tol which struck his fancy; but after
receiving these, in spite of her strug-
giles and entreaties, lac accomplished
his foul purpose and hastily left, and
up t. this time has no. been arrested.
y complete description of the rascal
indentities him as Il negro who was
arrested as q vagrant and suspicious
character, and lodged in the fifth Pol
ice station in Cambridge on Thursday
night. The friends Of the lady DIRE
highly exasperated at the affair. and
it is hoped that his arrest will speedi-
ly be made, and summary justice
dealt out in him. The officers are on
his track.
The Rev. ID. A. WATSON mentioned
in the foregoing is a pronounced and
prominent abolitionist of Massachu-
seits. He is one of the constant con-
tributors to tho atlantic Monthly, and
poet of some merit. Some of his
religious poems have been received in
to the Boston collection Of Hymns of
the Ages" a.

II is stated that the cotton crop Of
the sea islands Of South Carolina and
Georgia, from whence the fine and cx-
ira fine grades of the great staple
have usually been obtained, will not
reach, the present season, even with
late FROST over $4,000 or 10000
bales. There is indeed very little
present cultivation of those islands,
and an carly total disappearance Of

was much surprised to find in the abstract
of the proceedings Of the Senate of the United
States, published in the Iptezligencer Of the 24th
instant, the following paragraphs: ,as
Mr.. Trumbull asked leave to withdraw from
the files OF the Senate a petition presented by
him some days since from citizens of Augusta
county, Virginia, to the effect that the lives of
loyal persons in that vicinity had been in con-
stant danger since the withdrawal of the United
States troops, and asking that they be sent back.
Mr.. Trambull said he had this morning re-
celved q letter from Staunton, informing him
that the names OF the signers Of this petition
had been procured through some source for the
purpose OF giving the rebels an opportunity to
prosecute them. Alexander H. H Stuart and
Joseph Segar were described as being at the
head Of this thing. A number of those who
had signed the petition had been so frightened
and intiIidated that they had published cards
III the rebel papers making retractiOn, and 9TH
ers were being threatened with prosecution for
forgery. 1t was desired now to withdraw the
petition, 50 that the sgners may be exempted
from further prosecution" s,l L..
AS this gratuitous attack on me, by name,
has received some show of responsibility from
the place IN which it was uttered, | feel bound
to notice it. 4es a..
J. take it for granted that Mr. Trumbull has
been imposed on by some designing knaye, for
l cannot persuade myself that he had a delib
crate purpose to do me wrong. Be that as it
may, [ oppose to the imputation contained in
Mr. Trumbull's S remarks an emphatic denial of
It's truth
My connection with the matter of the peti-
ton was simply this: Some weeks ago
learned from the newspapers that Mr.. Trum-
bull had presented to the Senate of the United
States a petition purporting to be signed by
JAG citizens Of my county, asking that Federal
troops should be sent back, because loyal citi-
zens could not get justice in the civil courts, and
