We ARE exceedingly sorry that
there has been trouble over the late
election of President of the United
States, in New York. There has
been cry of fraud raised by both
parties, where otherwise everything
should have passed quietly, either
in the election of Mr. Cleveland or
Mr. Blaine. The majority was close
but it has been closer many times
before, and there was no need what
ever Of fraud by either side. If Mr.
Blaine had received the majority of
the votes cast, he would have been
our next President. As it is, Mr..
Cleveland has received the plurality
of the votes cast, and therefore he
will be duly declared President of
the United States. Let all, there
fore, submit to the inevitable 1t is
the choice of the majority, and we
make no comment on the victory OF
the Democrats gained over the Re
publicans. Reforms will be made
so said, in municipal and State
governments. This has to be seen
first before we speak of it. Men
who seek offices for personal aggran
dizemcnt ought to be turned down
and honest, trustworthy men ap
pointed. Lett either be Rcpuh
Leans or Democrats, because ther'
are competent men in both parties
Let every man think that "Puhli'

need be no fear Of corruption an'
frauds. We want to see all the FED
cral offices filled with good men, W
care not what party they belong
WHY need there be changes mad
where men are doing their Who'll
duty, and the public are satisfied
The country are full Of otlicc-seeker
and unless men are fit they ough
not to be appointed TO any Office
We hope for better times, and tina
men of both parties will say ut
all for the best, and peace and pros

Insomnia.

The comforts, the delights of sleep.
are not fully appreciated by any one until
he suffers the pangs of wakefulness. One
of the most exquisite forms of torture de
vised by the tyrants of Europe and OF
modern China was to intlict death by pre-
venting sleep. A case is somewhere re-
corded Of a Chinese criminal who suffered
for nineteen days before he succumbed
Food. drink and raiment are more easily
dispensed with for a considerable period
than is rest for the brain. Insomnia or
inability to sleep is a common enough
symptom of many nervous and mental dis
eases, and deprivation of sleep, if kept
up long enough, invariably results in loss
of reason. The poet Southey laid the
foundation of that mental malady which
clouded his later years by watching at
night at the bedside of his sick wife after
the continuous mental labors of the day.
Many a mental wreck dates from such
over taxation of the brain.
Wakefulness is generally owing to
something that initiates the brain through
the feelings Prolonged or excessive in
tellectual effort, so long as the emotions
are not stirred up, does not naturally pro-
s-uSC IOSS VI SlCOp, buI ldIAOl piCNtASp OSCo
to slumber. When the emotions, espe-
cially those of depressing character, are
aroused, the brain is kept in a state of ir-
ritation, and sleep will not come, no mat
ter how earnestly it may be sought In
fact, anxiety TO sleep, like any other
form of anxiety, hinders the obtaining of
1t. Worry is, therefore, worse than work,
and wears out the instrument of the mind
more rapidly than anything else. The
hard-worked soldier or sailor may sleep
soundly in spite of noises or confusion,
the roar of cannon or tempestuous winds,
while the officer may remain sleepless,
when the night is peaceful and every
thing would seem to favor rest of mind
and body. Care and worry over duty
unperformed or to be done effectualIy

The bazaars of Assiout are large and
well-stocked; for here the caravans ar
rive direct from the interior, laden with
ivory, panther and leopard skins, hoins'
ostrich feathers and eggs, and all the
products of the desert, and take BACK IN
exchange cotton fabric, Manchester
goods. and Scotch wooden shawls. i
am sorry to say that even the Bedoulns
are beginning 70 wear the latter, instead
of enveloping their heads in the hoods
of their white bouTnouSes, or carrying
them with their bright-colored strlped
kefeeyehs. 1t is a deplorable exchange

commonplace, but useful. From the

can think of no other expression TO
convey the idea of the vivid color OF the
wide expanse, which seemed TO SHINE
and simmer like mass of cmeralds, as
the wind swept refreshingly over ana
lightly stirred the blades OF grass ana
corn. There was nothing to break what
under ordinary circumstances would
have been the monotony of the scene,
save an occasional glimpse of the waters
of the Nile, with here and there white
sail gliding over their surface, or OF the
roofs of an Arab village and the tops OF
a grove of palm trees. The view from
this spot is said TO be the prettiest IN
Egypt; and it is certainly quite unique
in character Dean Stanley, in desert
bing it, says that the plain stretches
away for miles on either side, unbroken,
save for the mud-villages which lie here
and there in the midst of the verdure,
