" hat are Dreams (.

Deeply buried beneath its sluggish
veil OF death the soul carries on its mul.
hfarious operations without cessation.
Dreaming Is when by some cause par,

fcration made in the mask, so that 4
glimpse of the interior activities shines
through, and fastens cle'i on the outer
world for waking rccollections to seize.
Hszlett cloquent, asserts this theory in
his Round Table" II is now the pop.
ular theory propounded by most writer's
on the subject. But it is n hypothesis
more recondite than is warranted by the
facts. No proof has yet been advanced,

That bodies throw of ghosts which as

ment of superstition. That tie mind
never rests from Its labors, is ,ne,aphys-
| zeal conceit unsustaincd by adequate
authority. We are therefore TO reject
| these three theories OF dreaming, and
seek some simpler statement more in
cousonance with nature and reason,
Though there is ample evidence to de-
monstrate that we frequently dream
without retaining any remembrance Of
the dreqm, it by no means follows that
we never sleep without dreaming And,
indeed, on all physiological grounds, the
probabilities seem irresistible that in
healthy and p rfect sleep the mind is
without the slightest touch or glimmer
of a dream. A series OF images or per
ceptions may be caused in us hy outward
influence producing SENSATIONS, by in
ward operations, summonng ideqS, or by
the two conioined, constituting more
complex mental action. When awake,
We spontaneously discriminate between
these two with distmctness, and have
power in degree to order them at our
will. But when We asleep we know
no differences between external influ.
ences and internal operations then our
experience is entirely at the mercy of
fortuitous causes and the law of assoca-
ton. In our sleep one faculty of sense
may act alone, but in our waking state
they act, rs it were. simultaneously, cor
recting or confirming each other. In
dreaming, the mind for the most part
furnishes its own material in wakeful-
ness. nature conformity furnishes it.
There the action is recollection and ar
rangement here is perception and as
similation. When the sleep is complete
we do not dream ut all. When the

DRINKING Drinking wine Is a
habit, SO is drinking spirits, ale, cider
coffee and water. The last is thought a
necessity; but TO drink much is habit.
Some people drink little not because
their constitutions require less than Others;
it Is their habit Those people never
perspire 80 much as those who drink
more. The more that is drunk, the more
water passes away, or the system would
suffer. As it is, the strain effects it. 1he
skin, the kidneys, bowels, lungs, all are
drawn upon. The result is, as may be nat
rally expected. exhaustion. For this reason,
the man who drinks much water, Particu-
larly during the Summer and in tho hot
test weather, is less able to endure fatigue.
the water is of no benefit to hlm-that is,
the excess. 1t mast pass away, and tins
requires an effort of the system, which Is
the sweating process. Had he not used the
excess of water, he would not have per
spired so ; it would not have been there for
ii system to expel. 1t is habit to drink
ater so much false thirst is created.
We should drink only what is needed. The
habit of drinking more will soon be over
come, and the person will feel much strong
er and more capable of bearing fatigue.
In Winter, little fluid is needed beyond
what our food furnishes; in Summer some
more, but not much.

A Russian Market Town.

Ni2Lnee-No Novgorod which has Just been
destroyed by fire, is one of the most inter
esting and important cities of Central
Russia. Its fixed population III 1858 did
not exceed 36,3Ji, but during the great
fair which is annually held there, COM
mencing on the lst of July and ending
the last day of August, and which was
consequently at its very climax of inte-
rest when the disaster occurred, some
100000 to 100000 people are usually
collected there from all parts of Europe
and Asin--of such Importance is this
fair, which is considered the largest in
the world. The town is built upon an
angle formed by the confluence of the
Okla with the Voga. 1t consists Of two
distinct parts, an upper and q lower
town. The upper part on height over
looking the Nolga, is Of very imposing
appearance, containing the citadel. two
cathedrals, the Government offices,
churches, school houses, &C., and several
fine streets. The lower part, stretching
away to the flats on the shore of the
Volga, is built of wood, and communi.
Gates by bridge of boats across the Okla
to an immense open plain. Here it is
that the grand fair is held, and where
the fire-tiend seems to have been at work
This ground is so low as often to be in
undated, and that is why July and
August are selected for the annual fair,
as the two driest months in the year. At
all other periods of the year it is a mere
desert waste, but during these two months
the change in its appearance is almost
miraculous. A large and substantial
wooden city is erected upon it, contain
ing not only whole streets of stores, but
churches, hospitals. barrocks and thea
tres and even a residence for the Governor
and his officials. The vessels on the
river at that season are so thickly crowded
that the water is scarcely visible, and in
one part whole town of boats is fastened
together, 9Ising accommodation to a
population of some 10000 people. The
main articles dealt in at this great fair,
and to each of which is allotted sepa-
rate space, are tea shawls, carpets, and
silk goods of the costliest description
skins and furs Of every conceivable sort
from the Arctic regions, and Siberian
iron, both in its raw and mant factured
condition. Some idea of the magnitude
of this trade can be gained from the iact
that in ls49 the estimated value OF the
goods assembled was $5l, 10000. Or
this $40, 163, 600 worth were actually sold,
leaving balance of only &c, 647, 900 un-
sold.

the premises she felt "a convictioA that
the work had not been done properly,
and on examination of her head by her
relatives it was discovered that, instead
of the hair being thinned, several
patches had been cut off evidently with
view to their future use for the manu-
facture OF chignons or French curls.
The hair was ultimately given Sp to the

with peach trees, ordinary farm crops

for every basketball they pick, and at this
rate an industrious workman can make
