LANCASTER. APRIL %. 1856.
A Waste Of Time.

d. &. Bradley, of South Carolina, APP
pointed collector of internal revenue for
that state, has been confirmed by the
Senate with q vote of q to 10, notwith-
standing Edmunds led the opposition to 1t
in person. The vote shows that it received
the support of considerable number of
the Republican senator's, and as this case
and person were among the most obnoxious
to the Republicans it may be assumed that
they will confirm all the presidential nomi-
nations except such as are so decidedly OBJ
jectionable that the president himself will
withdraw them il the facts are brought to
his notice.
This is the outcome of whole win
ter's debate and delay. The Re-
whim and voted to sustain him
in theory that they never intended
to stand by. The country was subjected
for weeks to the debate in the Senate and
the discussion in the newspapers over a
point so fine that its settlement really
meant nothing if adhered to; and when
ignored, as it has been by some of the slen-
der majority deciding it, is shown to have
been utterly worthless and insignificant.
Had the Senate discarded the president s
appointees he could have reappointed them
all and no doubt would have kept on
doing SO. There are enough practical men
in the body to recognize this and vote to
confirm them. The whole discussion is
seen to have been waste of time and it
is doubtful if it ever had any higher pur-
pose than to prclong the official terms of
Republican subordinates in the offices to
which Democrats were appointed, who it
was presumed would be slow TO remove
their Republican employees while they
themselves were unconfirmed. This part of
the scheme has in some degree succeeded
1t does no credit to its promoters.
While the Senate has spent the winter in
this discussion, the Democratic House has
done very little to help its party Or to edify
the country. 1t seems to be discordant
body, without recognized or acknowledged
leadership, and the promise that legislation
would be facilitated if the appropriation
bills were divided around has not been real.
lied. The prospects for tariff reform are not
very good (; and the bill pending has been so
emasculated that even its passage would
not be any settlement of the question.
Altogether the present session of Congress
does not seem to have been very profitable
one and its end will leave the political stu.
alton far worse muddled than it found it.

A Talk on Sleep

An address was delivered recently before
the Parker Memorial Science class, in Bos
ton, by Walter Crane, on ''Sleep." He made
four divisions of his subject, which were as
follows: First the cause or necessity of
sleep; second, the process OF falling asleep:
third, phenomena of sleep; fourth, modify.
ing agents.
Rest repairs the muscular exhaustion,
while sleep, in addition, repairs the nerve
tissues. There is no part of the body which
does not sleep. The intervals between the
pulsations of the heart amount in the aggre-
gate to a rest of eight hours out of every
twenty-four hours, and this rest Mr.. Crane
called sleep OF the heart An animal OF high
nervous force eNpends more nerve force than
one of slower nervous organization, and re-
quires more sleep to repair the waste. A
large part of perspiration takes place during
sleep, which should vary according to age.
Children and old folks need more than people
of intermediate ages.
The uniformity of darkness stimulates
sleep also the lack OF variety of sounds. 1t
is hardly supported by facts that those who
sleep in the day are not so strong as those
who sleep at night; for the largest class of
day sleepers is composed Of men who use
alcoholic stmuants Sleep is gradual
process. No one perhaps but a child falls
asleep at once. Whatever tends to increase
the circulation tends to prevent sleep. We
can in measure control the action of the
heart Dy Will through the gangliOnic sys-
tens, by action of the muscles which will
couutersct that of the blood vessels
Mr.. Crane touched upon the theory of
dreams, stating as one-third of life is passed
In sleeping, proportion of that one-third is
spent in dreaming He cited Lord Holland )
dream as related by DIR. Benjamin Brodie
In dreams we never seem to be nybody but
ourselves. man never dreams OF being a
woman or another man. " If in state out
side of sleep impressions are made, the sleep
is influenced by them" said Mr. Crane, who
read extracts from "The Philosophy of Sleep
by DR.. Robert Macnish. He referred to ex.
periments which he and a friend had made
| in the Royal lunatic asylum in Aberdeen.
They found that in the brain of an insane per
| son (whose insanity had not arisen from
sexual causes there was a greater circu.
| lation III the brain when asleep than while
awake. Touching the insane when they
| were sleeping would lead them to dream
| From physical torpor the insane could moi
| be so easily awakened as the sane. Mr.. Crane
| was acquainted with man who used to con
verse W hile asleep and who gave intelligiblt
| replies to Mr.. Cranes questions
DR.. Ferrier's theory of the division of the
| brain into several compartments was touched
| upon. Somnambulism, defined as "an ex
| aggerated dream" was mentioned, and tn,
| influence which dreams had had upon some O
the writings OF Coeridge and Thomas d,

No better advice in the present juncture
can be given than " stick to your woolens."
AS contemporary remarks: In this latitude
the transition from the seventies of winter to
the mildness of summer is sudden, and
the question as to what it is advisable TO wear
becomes most important. Hosts of people
recklessly abandon the warmth of furs and
heavy raiment for clothing almost too light
for safety in midsummer. Such people WOO
pulmonary affections, and the proof tha,
they have not sued in vain is to be found in
the health reports. Let every man and
woman look TO it, if they regard health as
worth the keeping, that the raw early morn

not find them without some serviceable gar
ment to protect them.

AT the Friends yearly meeting the Phila,
delpbia, the report of the committee on the
use of intoxicating liquors among Friends
caused something of a stir. Some objection
was raised because the committee included
older among the intoxicating beverages which
The Friends should eschew. A majority of
the members, however, sided with the conf
mittee. We know of some hard cider that
would create great rebellion in the stomachs
of the most orthodox OF Friends; and the

certain consistency in the attitude of the
party upon this question. The prohibition
of the sale and manufacture of liquor isnot
Democratic. It is opposed to and
inconsistent with Democratic principles.
II is an entirely different question from
those of regulation of the sale, taxing of
the manufacture and temperance in the
use Of liquors. The state has entire right
to tax the sale and making of malt and
spirituous liquors it can and should reg
ulate the sale of them by license and penal
laws, to whatever extent is necessary TO
protect public order; the temperance OF
the individual is something it cannot reg
ulate even by law, and that we believe,
must be left TO other agencies than politi-
cal PARTIES or legislative assemblies.

The great antagonists met once only after
the scenes of Appomattox Court House Ii was
in May, 1869 soon after the first Inauguration
Of Grant. Lee was i'll Washington about
some business connected with railroads, and
thought it his duty to call on the president
He was received in the cabinet chamber with
no one present but Mr.. Motley, who had been
recently appointed minister TO England. Gen.
Grant and Motley both described the inter
view to me. Motley said both men were sim
pie and diEnited but he thought there was a
shade Of cunstraint i'll the manner of Lee, who
was indeed always inclined TO be more formal
than the northern general. The former enc
mics shook hands Grant asked Lee TO lie
seated, and presented Motley. The interview
was short, and all that Grant could remember
was that when they spoke of building rail
roads he said playfully to Lee:
You and |, general. have had more to do
with destroying railroads than building
them
But Lee refused TO smile or to recognize
the raillery. He weut on gravely with the
conversation, and no other reference was
made TO the paSt. Tee soon arose and the
soldiers parted, not ~ meet again until their
mighty shades salutei each other in that re
