Sound Sleep.

Sound sleep is essential to good health.
It is impossible to restore and recuper-
ate the system, exhausted by labor and
activity, without this perfect repose.
Sleep, has great deal to do with the
disposition and temper A sound sleeper
is seldom unduly disturbed by trifes !;
while wakeful, restless person is apt to
be irritable.
A great deal has been written about
the advantages of cartailing the hours of
repose, and of sleeping but little. We
are, inclined to think that there is room
for doubt whether the benefits of closely
limiting the time given to rest have not
been exaggerated. Active persons, of
nervous temperament, can hardly get too
much sleep. We know very well that
the saving of two or three hours day
from slumber, is, in one sense, equiva-
lent to considerable prolongation of
human life, and we are no advocates of
Incidence but the fact still remains that
sleep may be so much abridged as to
leave the system incapable of as much
effective work In two hours as might be
performed in better condition in one.

The Baptism of the Bulls.

The Pail Mall Gazette says: "The
opening of bridge at Aries has been
the occasion of an extraordinary popular
diversion, known as the Baptism of the
Bulls. Near the town is an immense
plain called the Camargue, where multi
tudes of cattle usually Craze in peace.
During great public festivals, however,
q large amphitheater is formed of carts
and hurdles, which serve to define the
half-circle A straight line is then drawn
with pillow between the extremities of
the curve, and this open space is toward
the Camargue. A number of bulls are
then driven into the arena SO formed.
They Instantly endeavor to leave it and
return to their pasture, but they are
stopped by body of horsemen armed
with tridents A few, however, manage
to break through the line, and then
comes the real excitement of the day.
The plow-mark is guarded by men on
foot, who meet the fugitive bulls, seize
them by the horns, throw them down,
and apply the branding iron to each from
among those bearing the names of the
cattle-ow7lers of the Camargue. AS,
however, branding the bull is considered
a great honor, the handsomest specta-
tress of the sports is led forward to give
the unfortunate animal his fiery sbap
tism.' Such is the scene with which the
opening of the bridge of Aries was cele-
brated the other day. The men liked it,
the women liked it, and it is to be hoped
that the bulls liked it too"

on my breakfast table. For myself,
personally, I care but little about it,
though if / were capable of uttering such
nonsense as is here put into my mouth,
it is high time that, instead of being a
member of this House, I were member
of some lunatic asylum. It is for the
dignity of this House that I feel con-
cerned; for if honorable members were
capable of listening to such nonsense,
supposing me capable Of giving express
ion to it, it were much more appropriate
to call this theater for the performance
of farces, than place for the legisla-
tive deliberations of the representatives
of the nation.
It was proposed by some members to
call the printers of the different papers
in which the speech appeared to the bar
of the House, for a breach Of privilege,
but the matter was eventually allowed
TO drop. Mr.. Wilberforce himself was
in favor of this course. He treated the
matter in playful manner, to the great
qualification of the House.

The GOOseberrY.

The goOseberry amt yegatabel, nor
one ov the arbs, natralists tells us so,
and what naturalist don't know he amt
afraid to guess at. They gro on short
bushes and theze bushes are az full ov
prickers az a paper ov pins.
For hot sass, or to bid pi out ov, the
gooseberry stands hi, but on, Lord ! how
it duz take the sugar to quiet them.
Naturally the goosebery is sourer than
step-mother, and to eat a green un,
right off from the bush, would make a
goat skream, and run home, for dear
life.
This funny fruit grows not only on a
bush that liz full ov thistles, but they are
full of teeth themselfs all over, like a
chestnut burr.
What on earth so many prlckers are
good for has allwuss been stumbling
biloxi to science.
Why they are called gooseberrys IL
another konnumdrum, for a sound
minded goose won't tuch one emmy
quicker than they would live frog, and
the goose generally stands reddy to eat
ennything they kin grab.
Man IL a finite kritter, and the prickers
on gooseberry, like ten thousand other
things, hav bothered him to explain, but
natur don't do ennything for the sake ov
joke, and when we cum to be larnt IN
all things, we shall diskover that thare
amt one too few, nor one too mulch
pricker on the gooseberry.
The more we kno, the less we doubt
One thing we do know. Man sprung
from the monkey, and I hope the wize
folks won't stop now, but keep on, and
prove sum more.-JOsb Billings.

A Shark Attacks a Bark.

The Auckland (New ZealanD Star
relates: During the last trip of the
Eliza McPhoe from this port to Catlin
river, and when off Cape Saunders, a
large shark, attracted by porpoise
hanging over the vessels stern, followed
the vessel over 26 miles. Those on board
endeayored to secure the shark with har-
poems, with which it was struck three
times, but each time got away. The last
time he became Infatuated, went away
quarter of mile, turned, and ran at the
vessel with all its strength, striking her
on the port bow with such force that
(being only in ballast trim) she keeeled
over. The shark at the time seemed
stunned, but, breeze springing up,
those on board were not able to catch
him. Capt. Patterson says the shark
was IS feet in length and 5 feet in diam
eter."

Permanent Effects Of Strong Drink.

In the Herald Of Health is an article
from which we clip the following, as
showing the evils of incompetence in a
new light, adding another novel and
startling argument to the many already
advanced, against the use of intoxicating
liquors:
'tThe history of four generations of a
family, as sketched by M. Morel, dis
tinguished French writer, is full of in
structions ON the matter. 1t is as fol-
lows:
g First generation. The father was
an habitual drunkard, and was killed in
a public-house brawl.
g Second generation. The son in
herited his fathers habits, which gave
rise to attacks of mania, terminating in
paralysis and death.
"Third generation. The grandson
son was strictly sober, but was full of
hypochondrical and imaginary fears of
persecution, etc., and had honicidal
tendencies.
"Fourth generation. The fourth in
descent had very limited intelligence, and
had an attack of madness when sixteen
years old terminating in stupidity nearly
amounting to idiocy. With him the
family will probably become extinct.
And thus we perceive the persistence of
the faint, in the fact that generation
of absolute temperance will not avert the
fatal issue. -

The Preservation of Game.

The early settlers Of the middle West
ern States found their beautiful valleys
and pralries abundantly stocked with ma
tive game. Bear and deer were to be
found IN plenty, and various species of
the gall1naceous birds nativeto the coun-
try might be raised at any time in five
minutes walk. The vast area of unin-
hablted country left these untamed deai-
zens OF the forest and prairie the safest
refuge from the attack of man, and to
these secure solitudes they gradually
Withdrew, as their enemy pressed them
more and more closely. The ratio of sup
ply to demand, as far as bird and beast
We're concerned, was so great that no
man troubled himself about the slight
lnroads which his own hands might
make. All this, in many portions OF the
West, was scarcely fifty years ago, In
others less than half that time. But
now the relation of cleared and occupied
to uncleared land is reversed. The de-
stroyers of the native game have multi
Piled on every hand, and the places once
refuge from human havoc are refuge
no longer. The earth fattens, prosperity
increases, but the native denizens of the
country are dropping farther and still
farther, till we shall soon know of them
only through their recorded scientific
| descriptions or the graphic tales of some
aged pioneer.
With certain classes of our game AMI
mails this result is not only unavoidable
but desirable The bear, the wolf and
the species of the cat tribe which were
wont to haunt the forest and make
nightly raids on the sheep-fold and pig
sty have had their day and are gone.
But there is large number of the game
birds Of the West-the quail, the pleas
ant Cor PARTRIDGE and varieties of the
grouse, which seem by nature especially
fitted for semi-civilized life, and which
seem to delight in not too intimate
companionship with man. These beauti-
full birds are not only an ornament to
any mans land, but are wholly the
farmers friends, since the little grain
they consume is more than paid for by
the destruction of insects and the seeds
of noxious weeds. gai.
The various States, through their game
laws, are protecting, to the best of their
Judgment, the breeding seasons OF these
birds, and our sportsmen throughout the
country are lending their influence to
the enforcement of these laws. But the
motives of the sportsmen are somewhat
selfish in their character, since they look
to the law merely as an ally which shall
preserve their shooting pleasures as long
as possible. The farmer, however, has
more disinterested motives for the pro-
lection and preservation of game, and
especially the birds, and it is very large
ly to the farmer that we must look for
the successful carrying out of the laws
which are enacted for this purpose. A
very little care and attention to this
matter will be repaid a hundred fold.
Will not our farmers who have not al
ready done SO give it their careful con-
sideration.

A Smoking Sin.

A story telling clergyman relates the
following anecdote of one OF our dis
tinguished Brooklyn Baptist clergymen
which the late Apostle Trask would
enjoy:
A few weeks ago the Doctor was exam
lining candidates for admission to the
church, and among them was delicate,
sweet-faced boy, of some sixteen years OF
age, whose eyes as he arose to speak
were bathed in tears. 6.a4
And are you striving to love, serve,
and follow the Lord Jesus 2" asked the
minister.
eyes sir, but my sins are great, :"
meelly returned the young applicant.
''But Jesus will forgive them all. He
can wash you Clean" said the doctor,
encouragingly.
"There is one sin," said the boy,
60 that have struggled hard against. 1
am free from it now, but am afraid that
God will never forgive me, and the lit
tie fellow sobbed aloud.
"What is it, my boy? Let us know
what it is? God will forgive anything,
if you are truly penitent and lead a bet
ter life. No matter how grievOus this
sin may be he will forgive you. Now
what is it'?'
-s-mo-o-king," sobbed the
boy.
Now as the doctor is an inveterate
smoker, say rather burner of cigars, said
the gentleman relating the story, he was
considerably taken aback, especially as
he noticed several in the congregation
laughing. But putting on grave look
he said to the sobbing applicant: " Yes,
yes, smoking is bad for boys, but God
will forgive you, trust.

A COMICAL NEWSPAPER HOAX.

The following is taken from Grants
History of the Newspaper Press :"
About the sane time as that to which /
have been referring the beginning Of
the last century-the debate, which was
on the question of the employment of
English laborers, being one evening I'M
usually dull, Morgan O'Sulliyan, o re-
porter of that period, who had short
time before been imported from Tip
perary, said to the only other reporter in
the gallery at the time that he felt very
drowsy, and that he would be after taking
a little bit of nap if he would tell him,
when he awoke, anything which might
