IMPORTANCE OF SLEEP.

DR.. Symes TnompSon's lectures at
Gresham College have the peculiar in
terest of treating popularity s cientifc
subjects from the point ofview Of q frs!
rate doctor. For instance, in this years.
course of his Gresham lectures he has
selected the subject of the connection
between sleep and pain, and recently
he dealt with the physiological aspect
yf sleep.
All the organs of the body need rest;
even the heart and the respiratory or
lAns snatch brief period of response
in the intervals of their pulsations, aud
in this connection DR.. Symes Thomp-
son pointed out the analogy between
Il certain species of respiratory action
which is found in persons whose ner
vcus vitality is at very low ebb and
The breating of hibernaling animals.
This is sometimes called the Cheyne-
Stokes respiration, and consists in Il few
rapid breathings followed by long pc
riod of cessation from breathing. Sim
liar action is to be noted in respect OF
,he hearts pulsations. The dormouse,
when hibernating, exhibits these symp.
oms, and so do old people very often
when they are ill. 1t is as if the nerves
and muscles of these organs were sud
!enly stirred with a sense that their
work must be done somehow,
aud after period of unusual
energy sank back into state OF
ethargy in order to recover. The
most curious point about these symp-
toms, however, is, of course, that they
should be characteristic of hiberDating
animals.
These observations of the lecturer
tere partly in the nature of a digres-
sion, and after them be returned to
point out the conditions under which
he body and the nerves slept. The
blood vessels of the brain must be near
lv empty-though for many years the
contrary TO this was believed to be
true, owing to the fact tnat the brain is
ull of blood during the torpor of apo
plexy. 1t was the observation OF
mothers and nurses with respect to the
where the bones are not quite joined
iogether that eventually put the doc
tore on he right track. Mothers and
nurses observed that this little bone
loss space, the "fontenelle." was de
pressed during sleep, and elevate d
when the baby was active, the infer
-nce being that in the first case the
Grain was empty of blood, and in the
second was full. The next condition
for sound sleep is that the blood must
oe rid Of products of mataboIism-those
waists prooucts of the blood caused by
sxerion, mental or physical. DR..
Symes Thompson concluded with some
very SQUAD remarks upon the necessity
Of sleep. and he maintained that it was
oot overwork, but undersleep, that was
he evil of the day London Graphic.

NORFOLK, VA. July 22.-special.-
There is feet assembling at Old Point
to-day. the purpose OF which can only be
conjectured. II is thought. however that
the simultaneous arrival OF the ships IS
a coincidence without especial signil-
canoe.
The first ship to arrive az Old Point to-
dav was the Roumania, officially desig-
mated army transport. No. q. She Il
is stated. will debark wounded al Old
Point. Following her came the big auxil-
iarv cruisers St Louis and Yosemite.

the young swells from Lake Michigan
The provision ship. Glacier. the name
OF which was changed, because the news
paper wits made fun OF the first chosen
name. Delmonico also arrived from New
York to-day The Morse King followed
later.
All sorts Of guesses have been made to-
day as to what the assembly means. but
none OF them appear TO have had sufii-
Gent elevation TO enable them TO arrive.
The British golfers Massapequa and
Manhansett have their cargoes OF coal
aboard and are lying in the stream on
Lamhert's Point.
The knowing have been saying that
they would Join Waston's fleet, to which
a number OF our golfers now In Hampton
Roads have been assigned, but this IS but
conjecture.
The amount OF coal ahoat IN this har-
Dor to-day is very great. Besides the
