How TO sLEEP.-Many persons get into
a habitof wakefulnebs at night, which Is
often very wearying, and always annoy.
ing and uncomfortable. Some cannot go
to sleep till the "small hours" OF night;
others will wakeat three or four in the
morning, aud cannot coax sleep again
until It is Just breakfast time, 4 writer
ON sleep recommends such wakeiul ones
to try the effect Of change. Go into
another room, or move the bed into diff.
erent position, or lie with the head In
another direction. II you relying on a
high pillow, fling it away; ii your head
is low, raise It. II you have been trying
to sleep without u light, strike one; II
otherwise, extinguiSh It. II other means
fail, leave the bed and take aschair.
Wakefulness Is often easily traced to
physical causes. But II one cannot sleep
as much as he thinks he requires, don't
let him worry over 1t or think he must
necessarily be sick In consequence. Lack
Of sleep Is bad, but discomfort ia worse,
Let every one be thankful for such amount
OF sleep rs he can obtain, and not fret
because it is not more.

ployed in the Register office as compost

to the hotel in an intoxicated con-
dition. A fellow boardeftpefsuaded him
him to 90 to his room and go to bed, and

wards his friend heard scuthing sound
on The stairway, and going to the ball
noticed COss leaning over the railing
about half way up, Ak II he had caught
himself in falling. Al the same Instant
he heard the discharge OF a pistol, and
saw the weapon drop and COss stagger
down the stairway. Upon examination
it was discovered that the ball had taken
effect Immediately under his chin, passing
out on the left side OF his neck behind. A
bullet hole was also found in one OF his
hands. As it was known that he was in
the habit OF carrying a pistol in side
pocket,i ia supposed that the weapon. was
accidentally discharged by coming in con-
tact with the railing, when he fell against

lightin reminding such men as the Hon.
J. NJ. Bennett and Judge Camden that
they are politically dead as regards any
preferment at the hands Of the Democracy

have it understood, whether Capital re-

candidates are prescribed at the Charles

Of Underwriters have sent out an appeal

this year against the consequences OF a

in the celebration Of the coming Fourth

We understand that it il the intention OF

subject, and to prohibit, under the penal
ties prescribed, the promiscuous use OF fire
