As result of these experiments he
supports Admiral FItzroy in the con

Insomnia is rightly regarded as one
of the marks of an overwrought or

lasting for reasonable period, say
from SIX to nine hours in the case Of
adults, is fair test Of nervous com
petence. Various accidental causes
may temporarily interfere with sleep
in the healthy; but still the rule holds
good, aud normal brain reveals its
condition by obedience to this daily
rhythmic variation. Custom can do
much to contract ones natural term
of sleep, fact of which we are con-
stantly reminded in these days of high
pressure; but the process is too artlti-
cal to be freely employed. Laborous
days with intervals of rest go far to
secure all the needful conditions of
insomnia.

ALEXANDRIA GAZETTE.

The GAZETTE, chronologically,
is in the NINETIETH year of its ex-
istence, and is rot only the Oldest
paper in the State, but, with few
exceptions, in the country.
! Notwithstanding the fulness of
its years, it has kept, and will con-
tinue to keep, abreast of the times
in all that pertains to NEWS paper,
furnishing its readers daily with a
perfect mirror of passing events,
domestic and foreign.
Its facilities for obtaining news
as they increase are taken advan-
tage Of and used for the benefit OF
its readers, who are thus kept
thoroughly posted as to all that is
Of interest politically, socially, f.
financially or commercially.
Special attention is given 10 mat
ters concerning the State and It's
welfare, while its local columns
contain all that is Of the slightest
interest to Alexandrians.
Its regular correspondence from
Washington and Richmond are fea-
lures Of peculiar interest, as attest
ed by the eagerness with which
they are read and copied by other
papers, while its editorial depart
ment, conducted with reference to
the best interests of the city, State
and country, will continue to ad-
vocate what is believed to be right,
just, honest and patriotic.
With view to the interest of
merchants, farmers and all inter-
ested, its commercial columns are
carefully edited and it's market re-
ports are acknowledged by all to
be faithful and accurate.
Through all this section of the
State, and in all parts of the coun-
try where Virginians have located,
there will the GAZETTE generally
be found, and thus as an advertis-
ing medium it has few equals out
side the large cities.
In the household, counting room
and workshop it is an ever-welcome
visitor, acceptable alike to old and
young, the grave and the gay.

desperate fight recently with mammoth
turtle. Mr.. Drew fret discovered the tur.
tie in mudhoie, q hundred yards south of
the bridge on the east eide of the river, and
thought it 70 be negro boy crawling on all
fours, As he watched it no saw that 1t was
an immense turtle, apd calling Baldwin Set
about to capture IL. This is usually done by
Selling the turtle by the tail and carrying
Ii off in triumph, bot In this case th- plan
did not work. As soon as the two men
were near enough the turtle became the ag-
sreesor and attacked his woud-be captors
so savagely that they we're obliged to rec
treat and cal. for help. Several road men
came to their assistance with ropes and they
succeeded in lassoing the turtle and drawing
il up to the signal tower at the east end of
The bridge and tied it to telephone pole,
wkere crowd soon collected. Under the
signal tower Is deep vault, reached by
seven high stone steps and covered oy
heavy drop shutter, which, when closed,
forms part of the floor Lotto this vault they
placed their prizs for the night and closed
the door. Various duties called them away
for an hour, and when they returned their
captive was gone. The turtle had crawled
up the steps, opened The heavy door and es.
capped. 1t was afterward recaptured, but it
took six men to get it back to prison from
the railroad track, where it succeeded in
stopping an express train and soaring an
engineer. The turtle measures three feet
across, aud its head ia more than five inches
in diameter. 1t is so large that its upper
ehell would make an umbrella large enough
to cover two men. 1t has DOT been decided
what disposition to make of the turtle. but
1t is probable that it will bs kept and fatten
ed until Stafford's two hundred and fftieth
anniversary, which takes place 10 October,
and then made into soup for the thous'
auds of visitors.
