Why these chimeras of sleep? Phys
ical disposition, | shall be told. Well
and good but that does not explain why
they have such and such a shape That
relates to an organic mechanism of which
we do not know the motive powers, and
which remains an enigma to us all. AS
our eyes for long while retain the i'm
preston of the solas spectrum which had
dazzlel them, the mind fills with the OBJ
jects which have filled the eyes, and the
fancy, while it transforms, traces them
upon know not what black chamber,
the sanctuary of dreams. Our brain is
not, then, a Photographic apparatus where
in images are accurately transmitted. 1t
resembles rather theatre where the facts
of life are presented under the form Of
fiction But it is richer and more original
than all the fctions of the theatre. IL Is
the unforeseen in all its bower, it IS the
impossible accepted beforehand, it is the
unrestrained festival Of the Imagination.
The serious and the 5urlesque dance to-
gether terror and joy succeed each other
tears flow and wet the pillow. But it
most frequently vanishes to give way to
unrealizable compensations. The friend
who has just left US suddenly returns
from an immense journey, which has
lasted but an instant he even, il need be,
leaves the tomb to which We have just
carried him, to converse With US. We
ourselves easily die in dream, and feel
ourselves once living and dead without
surprise and with out anguish. Thus,
thanks to the fiction, which rock our
hours Of repose we spend notable part
of our existence outside the domain Of
reality. All the more because it is not
necessary to sleep in order to dream.
Contemplation leads US almost always to
state of highest satisfaction in which
reason slumbers, and wanderings more
defined and less prolonged than those Of
dream none the less escape the control
of argument. There is, therefore, in Us
something which is called soul, and
which is perhaps quite another thing
from that which bears its name, hitherto,
very vague or very ill-deGued. | have
myself long believed that we have three
souls-one to direct the employment Of
our organs, another to regulate our re-
lations with our species, third to com
municate with the Divine Spirit which
animates the universe. Saint Beuve used
to smile when | said that to him. Three
souls, )" replied he, 'if we could be sure
of having one ?" I dared not answer
him that We had perhaps more. We are
not such simple phenomena as people
have chosen to think in order to be able
to classify US as good and bad, as elect
and condemned.

THE VALLEY OF DEATH, a spot almost
as terrible as the prophets valley of dry
bones, lies just north Of the old Mormon
road to California, region 80 miles long
by 80 broad, and surrounded, except at
two points by inaccessible mountains. 1t
is totally devoid of water and vegetation,
and the shadow Of bird or wild beast
never darkens its white glaring sands.
The Kansas Pacific railroad engineers
discovered it, and also some papers which
show the fate of the "lost Montgomery
train" which came south from Salt Lake
in 1850 guided by Mormon. When
near Deaths valley some came to the
conclusion that the Mormons knew nothing
about the country, so they appointed one
of their number leader, and broke Oh
from the party. The leader turned due
west SO with the people and wagons and
focks he travelled three days, and then
descended into the broad valley, whose
treacherous mirage promised water. They
reached the center, but only the white
sand, bounded by scorching peaks, met
their gaze. Around the valley they
wandered, and one by one the men died,
and the painting focks stretched them
selves in death under the hot sun. Then
the children, crying for water, died at
their mothers breasts, and with swollen
tongues and burning vitals the mothers
followed. Wagon after wagon was aban-
dona1 and stronU man tntterpd and ra v
ed and died After a weeks wander
ing, dozen survivors found some water
in the hollow OF Il rock in the mountain.
1t lasted but short time, when all per-
ished but two, who escaped out of the
valley aud followed the trail Of their
former companions. Eighty-seven fami-
lies with hundreds OF animals persisted
here, aud now, after % years, the wagons
stand still complete, the iron work and
tires are bright, and the shriveled skele-
tons lie side by side

P1oUs SPECULATIoYs.-Apropos Of Mr.
Daniel Diew's contract with Duncan,
Sherman. and Co., to deliver to them
five millions of dollars of Erie stock dur
ing the year 1872 at 80, we have this
anecdote of that eminent speculator
Not long since he met Methodist
clergyman in New jersey, and having
rather fancy for him, asked him if he
wouldn't like to make a little money. The
minister replied that he never speculated
nor gambled in stocks, not believing it to
be right besides, he was only worth
some fifteen thousand dollars, and could
not afford to peril it. Mr.. Drew, after
some further chat said he could suggest
something that would be perfectly legiti-
mate, and proposed, if .he parson would
act upon his suggestion, to guarantee him
against loss, while the prospect for
handsome profit was quite promising. The
arrangement was accordingly made.
Some weeks latter the divine came over
to New York and called at Mr.. Drcw's
office to ascertain the result.
WELL" said Uncle Daniel, "thc fact
is. that thing [ told you about has bust
ed but promised to guarantee you
against loss, and | will keep my prom
ise."
So, figuring up the amount invested,
with simple interest, Mr.. Drew handed
over a check, and the pastor congratulate
cd himself upon the result
,.D,,t nil I.,. .i...-..
Uncle Daniels joke comes in--"but, Mr..
Drew, told one of my elders what yoa
had agreed to DO with me, and he went
and bought little stock"
did he ?" said Uncle Daniel "Why,
how sorry am I'm Altered he hs,
lost some money
YES" continued the good mau, 'anl
he told another Of the trustees, AMI be-
went aud bought some"
10, lont to- me -
"Yc,, N.. D,e~; and the brethren
Thought it was 50 good Of you to give me
a pint that they al rent and 5oV9H.'
! "Wcll, I'm 50 sorry"
$50 am l."
"Why, they must have los. cons.dara-
bic m,ney--must have pretty muck
cleaned 'em out. They oughtn't to'yc
done il. Buyin' stocks you don't know
nothin about is mighty risky business.
You tell EN- that"
"Bu, Mr.. Drew, they're nearly ruin
ed"
Shouldn't wonder; and I'm truly sor-
ry."
The good parson returned to his flock,
most Of whom had already ascertaiued
the true condition of things. Somebody
had "unloaded' to the country bretheren.
Probably it was not Uncle Daniel.-EO.

SCENES OF BEAUTY AND TERROR.

A letter from Naples, April 26, to the
London Telegraph, furnishes some
graphic description Of the thrilling scenes
witnessed during the recent eruption of
Mt Vcsuvius, from which we extract as
follows
THE MOUNTAIN ROBBED IN FLAME.
"For several nights before the new
craters burst, the mountain was so en-
chanting in its robed of fame that Naples
could not think of going to bed. Hour
after hour until the return of daylight
one and all of us fingered in the streets,
or by the shore of the bay, drinking in
the glory of Vesuvian TRANSPORTATION
Few who witnessed it will ever forget the
first Of those nocturnal displays. When
darkness fell on the night of the 23d the
great cone seemed suddenly to festoon it.
self with wreaths of fire. From its sum-
nit three craters were playing simultan-
e.asly. Continuous clouds of luminous
SIN IKE ascended IL the star-lit sky. On
their wings they bore solid masses of
scoriae, which, after rising to consider
able distance, either fell back into the
crater or were thrown over the side Of
the cone into the streams of lava which
we're flowing down the mountain. The
moon, as if jealous of a terrestrial rival,
shone with such brilliancy as only south
ern heavens are favored with The three
craters emulated it in the steadness of
their illumination. From hour to hour

The Wedding Guest.
BY MRS. W. W. THOMAS.


One summer mern serene,
soft sunbeams trailcd their golden garments o'cr
Ion ived church, within whose open door
A bridal train was seen.
Gay peaed the wedding bell,
Deep organ tones thrilled every listening arch
Till at the halowed shrine the well timed march
Into deep silence fell.
A hush of rev renee stole
Each throbbing heart and waiting brow upon
While angels bent to bless the sacred bond
First given to Eden souls
As holly the prayer
Died on the ear intent, pure white dove
With shining breast, and tender notes of love
Cleaving the still blue air,
Folded in rest its wing
Upon the altar, near the holy book
Whose wind stirred leaves from open easement.
took.
The fragrance soft airs bring.
With meek swift -glancing eye
Upon the gathered crowd it fingered long,
Cnmindful of the sunshine and the song
Under tho arching sky,
But when the vow was said
The joyous music DER, the lightsome feet
Gone out to life with all its hopes SO sweet,
Mid tho docp silence shed,
1t sailed on gladsome plume
To seek its native haunts of quiet peace
Then eyes looked out to SEQ glad years increas,
Without shade of gloom.

The weeping willow has romantic
history. The first scion was sent from
Smyrna in box of figs TO Alexander
Pope. Gen Clinton brought shoot
from Pope's tree to America, in the time
of the Revolution. which. passing into
the. hands of John Parke Gusts, was
planted ON his estate in Virginia, thus
becoming the progenitor Of the weeping
willow in this country.
A remarkable fatality has fallen upon
the eyergreens over great part of the
country during the past winter or spring.
The young ev rgreens of various kinds
have been killed to fearful extent, eth
er by severe frosts, or sudden thawing
after the frost. The cause is still mat
ter Of speculation, but the fact is one
which is witnessed to fearful extent.
Some nurserymcn have lost to the value
offrom ten to fifty thousand dollars worth,
and others have suffered the loss of
hedges and ornamental trees and shrubs.
