Captain Bingham, who seems to have
devoted himself to Napoleonic litera-
ture, has just published in three vol
umes an English version of the more
interesting portions of the correspond
ence of Napoleon l.. Fifteen volumes
of these letters were published in
France during the first years of the
second empire; but ''when," the Lon
don Times says, Sit became a question
of printing letters which showed that
Napoleon had ordered a wholesale for
gerry Of English bank notes that he
might injure the credit Of the Bank of
England, the commission recoiled. The
Emperor was consulted and a new com
mission was issued under the Preslden-
cy of Prince Napoleon, who announced
that for the future nothing would be
published except what Napoleon him
self would have agreed that the world
should see." A mass of letters remain
unpublished, and many have been de-
strOyed.

Sleep.

All the organs of life rest IN some
way or other. The heart has an inter-
val of rest between each combined act
of contraction and expansion, and the
beginning OF a fresh act. Between
each expiration of the lungs and the
succeeding inspiration there is a period
of repose. Psychologists have calcuIa-
ted that the heart reposes during about
one-fourth Of life, and that the lungs
rest one-thIrd of the time.
Some of the other organs suspend
their activity, in part, during sleep,
which Ia as necessary to existence as
food. If a nan does not sleep, he ex-
hausts his nervous power, becomes a
maniac and dies.
Shakespeare had noted these physio-
logicalfacts, or he would not have called
sleep natures gentle nuTse,'' ''sore
labor's BATH and ''chief nourlsher IN
Iifs's feast" Ceryantes saw them as
clearly, for be makes Saneho Panza
say:
snow blessings light on him who first
invented sleepl 1t covers a man all
over, like a cloak; it is meat for the
hungry, drink for the thirsty, heat for
the coldFand cold for the hot"
Old psychologists supposed that sleep
was caused by the pressure of the blood
on the brain. But moderate physiology
regarding the blood as the origin of all
force, and of all the functions in the
body, afiTms that sleep is caused by Il
withdrawal of blood from the brain.
AS a rule, the larger the BRAN the
more sleep it requires. Webster went
to bed at 8 o'clock snd s at 8. Gen
eral Grant used TO say during his
campaigns, 81 can do nothing without
nine hours sleep" There have been
lawyers and generals who did with
much less-but they did little during
their wakeful hours.
Another trait marks men Of large
brain-that is, their power of sleeping
at will. A great general or a great
stat IVAN usually al lie down and
catch Iorty winks" at any time and
place. Bonaparte used to throw him
self on the ground and in two minutes
was fast asleep. Mr.. Pitt was a sound
sleeper and slept night after night in the
House Of Commons, while his c0llea-
cues watched the debates, and ronsed
him when it was necessary that he
should speak.
