An HONEST MAN. Mr.. Peter A. Dey
was the engineer who surveyed and To-
Gated the first hundred miles of the road.
He estimated its cost at not over thirty
thousand dollars mile. When this es.
innate was shown to the directors, it was
returned with orders to retouch it in
higher colors, to put in embankments
heavier, and increase the expense gener-
ally; and then he was requested to send
in his estimate that it would cost fifty
thousand dollars a mile. When Mr..
Dey found that this part of the road was
to be let to Mr.. Hoxie at $4,000 per
mile, for work which he knew could be
done for 0,000-this difference of
$4,000 mile amounting to two mil
lions of dollars on the first hundred
miles, and to five millions on the two
hundred and forty-six miles-he resign
ed his position as chief engineer of the
road, with noble letter to John A. Dix,
president of the road. He closed the
letter with this statement. "My views
of the Pacific Road are, perhaps. pecu-
liar. I look upon its managers as the
trustees of Congress. You are
doubtless informed how disproportionate
the amount paid is to the work contract
ed for. need not expiate on the sin
certify of my course, when you reflect
upon the fact that have resigned the
best position in my profession this coun
Try has offered to any man.-Scribner' s

OAKEY Halls DAUGHTERs.-Th Hom'
Journal says: "Ex-Mayor Hall. Of
New York, is blessed with FIVE daugh
ters, and is having each educated in
some special pursuit, that she may thu.
be guarded against the vicissitudes o.
fortune. One of the daughters is de-
signer and etcher, having learned MI
the details of wood engraving at the
Cooper Institute. Her designs for books
and for some of Frank Leslie's publica-
tions have attracted much attention.
Another daughter is a writer Of chill
dren's books, as well as an accomplished
pianist. A third is receiving special
training for the lyric stage, possessing
full, round, and sweet chest voice
Another is already distinguished as a
soubrette and character actress in pri-
vate circles, while the fifth is perfectine
herself as modiste and milliner. Their
respective pursuits will perhaps never
be utilized while Mr.. Hall enjoys Sc
large and lucrative practice as at pres
ent, but it must be comfort to him and
his family to know that, if ever occas
ion arises, there are occupations open
to the daughters beyond the usually
forced and precarious ones of govern
esses, companions, etc."

NECESSITY OF SLEEP "a man VIII
would be good worker, says Henry
Ward Beecher, "must be good sleep
er." The quality of mental activity de
pends upon the quality of sleep. Men
need on an average eight hours of sleep
a day. Emphatic man is sluggish.
moves and sleeps slowly. But a ner-
vous man acts quickly in everything.
He does more in an hour than d slug
gish man in two hours, and SO in his
sleep. Every man must sleep accord
ing to his temperament-but eight hours
is the average. Whoever by work. pleas
ure, or sorrow, or by any other cause
is regularly diminishing his sleep, is
destroying his life. A man may hold
out for time. but the crash will come,
and he will die. There is great deal
of intemperance besides that of tobacco
opium or brandy. Men are dissipated
who overtax their system all day, and
under sleep all night.

How FRANK PIERCE GOT THE NEWS OF
Hrs NOMINATION TOR THE PRESIDENCY.
Sitting one night in the fremont
House with the late Colonel Barnes, he
said to me: e. That was a queer thing
about the nomination Of Frank"
:. Frank who?" I said. "Why Frank
Pierce General Pierce. You see. we
intended to run Frank for the Vice
Presidency. We thcrght the South
would concede that much to the North.
and We pitched upon the General. He
was very social in his habits, but very
quiet. He spent his evenings with set
of good fellows, and the fact is, he drank
a good deal, though it was not generally
known. The day of the nomination it
agreed between Frank and myself that
he should spend the day at Mount Au.
burn, no one but myself knowing where
his place of resort was. He was very
nervous and greatly agitated. I agreed
to drive out in the afternoon and tell
him how things looked. When the
news of the Generals nomination came
on, men rushed into the fremont House
in hundreds. They knew my intimacy
with the General. But I kept my own
counsel. I drove to Mount Auburn. 1t
was long time before I could find
Frank. 4e was solitary ard alone.
leaning on the monument over the graves
of the Webster family. As soes I saw
him I shouted By =, Frank, you have
got lt!' Got what?' Got the nomin-
alton for the presidency! Not the
presidency Yes. you are nominated
for the presidency by the great Demo-
cratic party of the States Pale as mar
BILE, Frank turned from me-half kneeling
and half standing -grasping the sand
stone shaft, he took solemn vow that
he would drink no intoxicating IL
quors during the canvass. nor, if elect
ed, during his presidential term. That
vow those who know him best know
that he kept B,rleigh's Letter to the
Boston Journal,
