Sleep

I think the intellectual and moral
connections of sleeping have not been
sufficiently appreciated, Men and boys
have been praised for "buruing the
midnight DILL" Now this midnight
oil' is a delusion and snare. The
student who is fast asleep at eleven
o'clock every night and wide awake at
seven o'clock every morning, is going to
surpass another student of the same in
tellectual ability who goes to bed after
twelve and arises before five. In sleep,
the plate on which the picture is to be
taken is receiving its chemical prep
aration; and it is plain that that which
is the best prepared will take the best
picture.
Men who are the fastest asleep when
they are asleep, are the widest awake
when they are awake.
Great workers must be great resters.
Every man who has clerks in his en-
plOv ought to know what their sleep

is the undetiled faith, as this is taught
as in the Bible. DO not Join that great
crowd which either neglect5 entirely
the Bible as the sole source of truth, or,
at best, misinterprGt5 it to suit its own

The reason why education is
usually so poor among women of fash
ion is that it is not needed for the life
which they elect to lead. With a good
figure, good clothes and a handsome
equipage; with a little reading of thf
daily newspapers and of the fashiOna
bic reviews; and, above all, with the
happy tact which often enables womer
to make a large display of very small
requirements, the woman of fashion
may never feel the need of true educa
ton. We pity her none she less, since
she will never know its peace and de
light. Julia Ward H0JOe.

THE NINE sUITOBS.

A British ship at anchor lay
In the harUOr Of New York;
The stevoiOres were packing her
With Yankee beef and pork.
Nine slim young men went upthe plank,
And they were tall and good;
But none of them had ever loved,
They said they never would;
But whether they wouldn't,
or whether they couldn't

The passengers were all ON board,
The vessel got un steam,
And ilOaJCd down the river like
The of a dream.
a pretty girl came up on deck
And near the railing stood;
She never loved a tcllOw-mau,
Aud said She never wOuldi
But whether Size couldn't,
Or whether She wouldn't
Or her father said she shouldn't,
The world Will never know
The nine young men stood I'm row,
Each trying not to stare,
The lady looked embarrassed, and
They offered her chair.
The nine young swells were very rich,
And 10 was understood
That each of them could marry
whatever girl he would;
But whether he COu dnt,
Or whether he wouldn't
Or the lady said he shouldn't
The world will never know.
50 things went on as usual,
The weather soon grew thick,
The nine young men were gallant,
The pretty girl was sick,
She certainly was charming,
When they brought her dainty food,
'Id cat &c all now really
And truly If COuld;'
But whether she couldn't,
Or whether Sine wouldn't
Or hor stomach said she shouldn't,

But whether she couldn't,

The world will never know.
The lady asked the Captain how

Said he: "Tbe love Of these young men

Grain freights from Chicago to the
seaboard are at the lowest point ave-
known. The fifteen-cent rate per
hundred pounds is for the time being
the regular one, the twelve a-half-
cent rate is reported, and is not re-
ceived with incredulity. These rates
barely pay the cost ofhauling, and leave
nothing of interest charges or the low
est conceivable returns for capital actu-
al invested. This is said to be in &C.
cordance with the predictions of twelve
years ago. As suggested with much
force, that the stock watering and ap.
parent monopoly could be remedied by
the building of certain lines of state
railways, which, though likely to be a
burden to the state, would justify their
cost by the fact that they would fix the
maximum rates beyond which the cor.
porate companies would not be able tc
go. The forty millions of "water" in.
jected into the so-called capital of the
New-York Central and Hudson Rive,
Railroad was the indirect, if not the di
rect, source from which sprang the
West Shore Railroad, and that road
with all its endorsements, is to-day
the most important fact with which the
Vanderbilt direction has to deal.

The Steamship Wreck off Nova Scotia.

Captain Scronhonen of the steamer d. Stein
man, wrecked at sambro, N. S., gives the fol-
lowing particulars: Tho steamer had fine
weather on the passage, with the exception of
the last two days, which were very foggy, it
being impossible to getany reckoning, and he
thinks he must have over-run his time. Al 10
p. m. the Sd lust, he saw q light ahead, which
he first took for the Chebucto light, the fog
making it appear about five miles off; but It
could not have been more than
one. He discovered, as lie
neared the light, that it was Sambro, and before
he had time to reverse the engines, he was
among the lodges northeast of the island. The
steamer struck twice, and began filling fast.
He then tried to run her ashore, but she sank
a few minutes. AS soon as the ship struck
the captain ordered the passengers all on deck,
butthey were all sweptoverborrd and drowned
by the heavy seas which swept over her. Two
passengers and five of the crew got into a boat,
II dmanaged to reach shore. The captain, who
was at his post III tho bridge when she went
down threw off his boots and coat and took
to the forward rigging, but she sank faster
than he could climb, SO he was obliged
to let himself float, and after considerable
trouble caught the top gallant yard, and chung
there with one of the passengers, who also
managed to keep himself atiost until 5 q. ~,
Friday, when a boat put Off from the island and
rescued them. The surviving passengers and
seaman OF the Inflated steamer are:
Henry Sc%hoonhoven, Antwerp, captain; Eu-
gene Nftkola, Matford, Luxenburg; Locco Mic
ola Vincengo Salano, Italy; John Mederman,
Echenhofen; Ober Bayen, Otto Kranz, Witch
