General Stevenson. warm.hearted and
sympathetic, eOmprehended the situation
at once. He made the party seat them
selves before him and tell him all their
story. He fed them at his table and
lodged them in his quarters. He tele-
graphed for special leave of absence
for the officer, and secured free transpor-
tation for both him and his friend. and
finally. most surprising of all possible
good fortune. he sent the venerable char
ioteer to Martinsburg, the happy bearer
of message that secured the restoration
of his lOng-eared quadrupeds.
On the next day the Lieutenant and
Mrs. VanMetre went on by rail TO WASH
/ ington. where Of course every one treat
ed them kindly, and gave them all pos
sible assistance When the paymaster
had been visited aud all preparation
made for their journey north, it was de-
termined to make an effort 10 secure the
release of the rebel prisoner. SO it came
about that the quasi-widow and the Grip
pied officer called together upon Secreta-
ry Stanton. The busiest of all busy men
found time TO hear their story, aud de-
spite the stony heart" attributed to
him by his enemies. he was deeply af-
fected by the touching tale, and the Oc-
ular demonstration of its truth in the
person of the wounded soldier. Tears
rolled down his cheeks as he gave the
order requested, earned by acts that few
women would have dared and the cou-
pie with glad hearts, crossing the street
to the Office of the COmmissary General
of Prisoners, presented the document to
the clerk in charge to be vised. But
here another difficulty arose. Some one
had blundered, and on searching the re-
cords of the Office the required name
could not be found. The cruel report
was made that no such prisoner had
been taken.
Nevertheless, Mrs. VanMetre's infor-
nation had been direct and her convic-
ton of some mistake was sure. They
/ laid the case before General Hitchcock,
then in charge of that Office. and again
the story was argument enough. With
trembling hands the old gentleman en-
dorsed the order: The commanding Of
6cer may release any person the bearer
may claim as her husband !"
The prison barracks were quickly
reached. The commandant caused the
thousands of grizzly captiyes to be par
AIDED. File after file was anxiously. oh,
how anxiouly scanned by the trembling
woman, and when the circuit was al
most completed, when her sinking heart
was almost persuaded that death instead
of capture had indeed been the fate of
the one she loved, she recognized his
face despite his unkempt hair and his
tattered garments, and fell upon the
neck of her husband as he stood in the
weary ranks.

families were at rest in BedelPs New

THE MOON AND rnE WEATHER,

One Of the subscribers to the Parsao-
logical has written to the editor thereof
on two occasions asking his opinion with
reference 10 the influence Of the moon
upon the weather, which we as resident
associates on this planetary orb expert
ence. The subscriber quotes the astrOn-
cmer Herschel-not very recent au-
thority, to be sure--in support Of his
view that the phases Of the moon exer-
else the important function Of meteorog-
ieal regulators. In answer to him We
quote from scientific writer in Black
goods Nqga=ine, who furnishes, we
think, very substantial reasons odrersus
the moon theory:
The notion that the moon exerts an
influence on weather Is so deeply rooted
that Notwithstanding all the attacks
which have been made against it since
meteOrology has been seriously studied,
it continues to retain its hold upon US.
And yet there never was popular SUI
pershtion more utterly without a basis
than this one. If the moon did really
possess any power over weather, that
power could only be exercised in one of
three ways-by reflection of the suns
rays, by attraction. or by emanation. No
other form of action is conceivable. Now.
as the brightest light Of a full moon is
never equal in intensity or quantity to
that which Is reflected toward us by a
white cloud on summer day. it can
scarcely be pretended that weather is af-
fected by such a cause That the moon
does exert attraction on us is manifest
we see its working in the tides but
though it can move water, it is most un.
likely that it can do the same to AIR, for
the specific gravity of the atmosphere is
so small that there is nothing to be at
tracted. Laplace calculated, indeed.
that the joint attraction of the sun and
moon together could not stir the atmos-
phere at quicker rate than five miles
a day. As for lunar emanations, not a
sign of them has ever been discovered
The idea of an influence produced by the
phases Of the moon is therefore based on
no recognizable cause whatever. Fur
thermore, it is now distinctly shown that
no variations at all really occur in
weather at the moment of the changes
of quarter any more than at other ordin-
airy times. Since the establishment of
meteorological stations all over the earth,
it has been proved by millions of nhser.
vations that there is no simuItuneSusness
whatever between the supposed cause
and the supposed effect. The whole sto-
ry is fancy and superstition which
has been handed down to US uncontroll-
ed, and which we have accepted as true
because our forefathers believed it. The
moon exercises no more influence on
weather than herrings do on the Govern
ment Of Switzerland"

SLERPLRssSEss.-C0l is often cause
of want Of sleep. and so is heat. With
many persons sleep is impossible if the
bed be not warmed previous to their en-
terirg it. especially the aged and those
having some form of heart disease. In
the young and healthy the chill on get
ting into bed. however, Is often Of great
service in conducting to more perfect
cerebral anamia and sounder sleep. Few
persons will have failed to note the deep
and unusually refreshing sleep which
has exposed them briefly to the cold,
which makes the warm bed-elothes ex-
tremely comfortable on again getting
into bed, and which is followed by sound
sleep. Sometimes an increase Of body
temperature is the cause Of disturbed
sleep often amounting to sleeplessness.
This is most frequently seen in febrile
states, where delirious condition takes
the place Of natural sleep. After the
temperature has been brought dewn by
the application Of cold, fever patient
will commonly fall into refreshing sleep,
until a return. 10 fever temperature
disturbs it. Getting out Of bed. when
restless. will frequently produce reac-
ton in cold weather. and induce sleep.

HUSBANDS.

HUSBANDS.
1ngratItude and Indifference sometimes
mar the character of men. A husband
returns from his business at evening.
During his absence, and throughout the
livelong day, the wife has been busy
with mind and hands preparing some
little surprise, some unexpected pleasure
TO make his home more attractive than
ever. He enters, seemingly sees no more
of what has been done to please him
than if be were blind man, and has
nothing more 10 say about it than if be
were dumb. Many loving wife has
borne in her heart an abiding sorrow,
day after day. from causes like this. un-
til, in process of time. the FIRE and en-.
thusiasm Of her original nature have
burned out. and mutual Indifference
spreads its pail over the household.
