Upon further inquiry his place Of residence

Mrs. BERNARD's M1sFoRrUNEs.-The Sy.
racuse Courier says that the losses from
which Mrs. Bernard is suffering were sus.
tanned two years ago, and adds:
Ever since, Miss Richiugs has been en-.
deavoring TO make good her losses. Mag.
unanimous and honorable as she is, she has
sacrificed her personal property, and even
her jewels. in order to pay her debts. The
late Peter Richings, her father, mortgaged
his estate to assist her, and in time She
would have undoubtedly paid all her debts
bad not the death Of her father caused the
foreclosure Of the mortgage. Miss Rich.
ings was last winter, and is now, connected
with an English opera company, which
bears her name, on salary. She shares in
the profits, but no losses. The tour of the
company referred to has been one of un'
precedented financial success. The troupe
at its last appearance i'll this city cleared
over fifteen hundred dollars. The facts we
have given above were obtained from Mis-:
RicbinoS herself. 81.

the retina ceases, and the nerves Of the
eye sink
The next organs which cease their &c.
tivity during the process Of falling asleep
are the ears. Possessing no closing ap.
paratus like the eyes, they DO not so easily
enter into state of rest. Here, so to
speak, sleep has TO struggle for its rights
The best example of this we may find in
our own experience, if we have been so
unfortunate, or shall say fortunate, as TO
fall asleep undera tedious lecture or ser
mon. After we have gradually lost the
thread of discourse, and our eyes are en-
ioying their well enrned rest, the words
still Continue to sound in our ears, but we
are no longer in a condition TO recognize
and understand them. Gradually they be-
come more confused, and at length end in
dull and artculate murmur, which seems
TO withdraw itself further and farther from
us, until at last it is entirely lost.
In the meantime, the sensitiveness Of
the skin begins to be lesseped. In vain our
friendly neighbor wearies himself 10 save

At last the muscles, controlled by the
will, sleep also. When we sleep in a com
fortable.bed, we are hardly conscious of
this, and the best opportunity for obscrv-
ing it is when, weaIied by an uninterest-
ing discourse, we must sleep sitting. Who
has not been grieved to find the imperti-
nent muscles of his neck suddenly fefus-
ing to carry his head upright9 And as
long as the struggle between sleeping and
waking is continued, there is exhibited to
the mischievols spectator, the highly
amusing, but treacherous nodding of the

sparingly reduced all expenditure, for mere
pleasure and luxury But this is not
enough it materially curtails the charges
for the nourishment of its tissues and the
renewal of its substance. The action of
the heart is diminished from a speed vary

less oxygen. - Good He7lh.
