answer is, I suppose, that be has been watch

the case became certain. Nor is It certain he
would have run If he could. He has played
tor great stake. Whatever else he may be,

How TO GET OUT OF BED. DIR. Hall does
not approve of the old fashioned doctrine
which was instiIled into the minds OF children
namely, that they should spring out of bed
the instant they awake In the morning. He
says that ''up 10 eighteen years every child
should be allowed ten hours to be In bed.
They may not require ten hours sleep, but
time should be allowed 10 rest In bed until
they feel as If they had rather get up than
not. 1t Is very great and mischlevous
mistake for persons, old or young, especially
children. and feeble and sedentary persons,
to pounce out of bed the moment they wake
up; all our Instincts shrink from it, and
hercely kick against It, Fifteen or twenty
minutes spent Ia gradually waking up after
the eyes are opened, ami in turning over and
stretching the limbs, do as much good as
sound sleep, because these operations set the
blood in motion by degrees, tending to equal
ize the circuIation; for during sleep the blood
tends to stagnation, the heart beats teebly aud
slow, and 10 ehock the system by pounclng up
In an instant and sending the blood In over
powering quantities to the heart, causing 1t to
assume gallop, when the instant before it
was In creep, Is the greatest absurdity. This
instantaneous pouncing out, as soon as the
eyes are opened, will be followed by weariness
long before noon."

LATEST FROM LoWERY,s GANG.
The Adventures OF the Herald Nan
Plays the Agreeable 10 the Outlaw
Chiefs Wife-Tnken to the Swamps-
ATerrIble Hystery, Perhaps.

The correspondent of the New York Herald,
who was 'scaptured'' by the Lowery's con.
sidering with Hugo that apparent defeats con-
tain definite triumphs, utilzes his confinement
by sending two or three columns OF surprising
interest to the Herald daily. The last dis
patch has tInge of romance about 1t. The
correspondent, 1t seems, has been acting on
the safe and celebrated principle of ''courtlng
the old woman" aud has successfully wooed
Mrs. Lowery In the temporary absence OF her
husband, gaining her confidence, escorting her
reyerentlally to church, extracting valuable
bits of news from her, and conctllating through
her agency two of the bandits, armed to
the teeth, and of singularly vlllanous ap-
pearance. BE has been obliged to take a
large quantity OF terrible oalhs, and is kept
prisoner until the return OF the chief. But the
Dibllc may rot deny Itself its quantum of
sleep. The correspondents life is not In dan.
ger, as long as he keeps his oaths; and he
will continue to forward regular bulletins,
which, If not religlously true In all parttcu-
lars, are as good as true. The Wilmington
Star, Of Sunday, has the following:
The wife of Henry Berry Lowery, the out
law chief, was at Moss Neck depot yesterday
as the train passed that point, whittier she
came for the purpose OF delivering dlsp atch
from Henderson, to be sent North from this
CITY. She states that the correspondent was at
Lowery's cabin, near Moss Neck, on Friday
evening about six o'clock, when Tom Lowery,
Stephen Lowery and Andrew Strong suddenly
entered 1t and told him to get up and 60 with
them. He told them that he was ready, but
arst asked permission to seHd off q dispatch to
his paper, which was accorded him, when ne
wrote the dispatch and gave 1t to 1s,I the L9Wery
female, who, as We have seen, fulfilled her
promise to deliver it to the conductor of the
train. Henderson then accompanied the out
laws, bound for the recesses of the Scufde-
town swamp. 1t was reported here yester-
day, the report coming from Shoe Heel, that
Henderson had been killed by the outlaws,
but the report is generally dlscredlted.

trernely addicted to gamG..ng; his trip abroad

to his room In Paris one morning about 2
O'clock. Ills wife was not In their lodgings,
but he knew where she was to be found, so he
went to the house of a Mrs. B - and found
that lady. his wife, and two men buslly en-.
gagged playing cards. The New Yorker flew
into towering rage, aud npbraided his wife
in The most Incorporate language. Early the
next morning the outraged wife obtained the
certificates of TWO o. three French physicians,
who had never seen her husband, Vouchlng
that he was insane and should be placed In q
lunatic asylum. Armed with these, she went
to Mr.. Washburpe, and through his lnterVen,
ton made the police arrest her husband ana
lodge him in madhouse. Meanwhile MT.
Washbnrne grew uneasy at The thought OF the
responsibility he had assumed, and the next
