For all the purposea of a Family Fhyaic ;
and for curing CoBtiveneas, Jaundice,
Indigestion, Foul Stomach, Breath,
Headache, Erysipelas, Rheuma
tism, Eruptions and 8km Diseases,
Biliousness, Dropsy, Tumor
Worms, Neuralgia; as a Din
ner PUi, for purtiyinK the Blood,
Are the most
effective and
congenial pur
gative ever dls-
ti . i Tlk arc mild, but
i i"i5 effectual in
their opera
tion, moving
the bowels
surely and
without pain.
Although gen
tle in their op
eration, they
are still the most thorough and search
ing cathartic medicine that can be
employed: cleansing the ptomach and
bowels, and even the blood. In small
doses of one pill a day. they stimulate
the digestive organs aud promote vig
orous health.
Ayer'3 111.1.3 have been known for
more than a quarter of a century, and
have obtained a world-wide reputation
for their virtues. They correct dis
eased action in the several assimila
tive organs of the body, aud are so
composed that obstructions within
their range can rarely withstand or
evade them. Not only do they cure
the cvery-day complaints of every
body, but also formidable and danger
ous diseases that have baffled the best
of human skill. While they produce
powerful effects, they are, at the same
time, the safest and best physic for
children. By their aperient action
they gripe much less than the common
purgatives, and uever give pain when
the bowels are not inflamed. They
reach the vital fountains of the blood,
and strengthen the system by freeim;
It from the elements of weakness.
Adapted to all ages anil condilions
In all climates, containing neither
calomel nor any deleterious drug,
these Pills may be taken with safety
hy anybody. Their sugar-coating pre

SLEEP WALKI.X;.

j LISM KKLATEI) HY PHYSICIANS.
j That jiersons walk in their sleep and
j are unconscious of ordinary impressions,
but yet retain sensations, there is, we
1 admit, no doubt. One curious instance
' occurred in a school-giil who was obser
I ved to rise every night about midnight,
and walk about licr bedroom and the
j lobby outside her sleeping apartment.
' After some time on returning to her led
; she was in the habit of examining it and
all about it. and finally selecting for
some hours' rest a clothes-basket which
'the house-niaid kept on the flat roof of
' the cradle-bod in which she lay. After
carefully examining the clothes-basket.
she. climbed im on the head of the era-
dlc-led and circling her body as a cat
would alove the clothes in the basket
I she comiosed herself to sleep, in which
she remained for an hour or more, then
rose, and returned to her lied. In the
j .morning she awoke at her usual time,
having no consciousness of what had oc-
cured during the night. Her sister
i watched her proceedings, but never in-
terrupted or awakened her, and after
i some time the nocturnal climbings'ceas
' ed,
j The second case that came under my
I observation was more varied and more
I embarrassing. A young lady from school
became a somnambulist. She rose from
bed and walk ad in her sleep. The la
dies who conducted the school liecame
alarmed, partly on the girl".s account,
i and partly for the character of the school,
: as it might injure their establishment
were it known that the young ladies
practiced the habit of walking about
; the lawn in their night dresses in
fjle
. moonlight. They had an impression
I that if the girl were suddenly awakened
' death or immediate deprivation of sense
might be the result : and this led to the
attendance of two maid-servants, who
were strictly enjoined to tollow the foot-
steps of the somnambulist, to watch that
no mishap should occur to her, and to
have all the doors opened, and the way
kept clear for the return of the sleeping
pedestrian. This continued for some
time. Hut nt length the somnambulist's
fancy took a more adventurous turn.
Slaters had come to work on the roof of
the house, and the sleeping precipatetic
evinced a desire to star-gaze. Accord
ingly, on the next night, she turned to
the slater's ladder, and to the horror of
her attendants, ascended it, mounted to
the roof, and walked along the gutter, j
with a sloping roof on one side and a
low parapet wall on the other. The at-
i tendants now became almost frighten
' ed out of their wits, and knew not what
j to do or think. The feared to call ; for
' return to consciousness in such a place
, would almost inevitably lead to her
' stumbling on the roof or falling over
the parapet. . Theirterrorwas, however,
i not yet at its height. The somnabulist
: came to a sliglit obstruction in the gut-
: ter : fche paused for a moment, and then, i
! without hesitation, stepped upon the ,
: I'.arapet, and continued her walk uion
, uie narrow stone coping, a single sup, ,
.,...... oiv. v..'1'iug. .-..!.,- s...f., :
se step, would have preciialed her j
a height of thirty or lorty feet ; yet i
. 1.11:
: from
to awaken her would almost certainly
have led to the same catastrophe. The j
I slee;er continued her walk to the end of I
the coping, and then turning round, re- i
' sumed her walk to the dormer w indow, '
' deoended the ladder, reached her lied-!
I room in safety, and lay down in her bed ;
ii waiving 111 1 nt; morning qune uncuii- .
j sciotis of her midnight danger and f I
her narrow escape. ;
1 I was then a very young practitioner ,
in medicine, was up to this period, al-
tablishment for ordinary cases of illness,
not consulted on this jierplexing ca.se, as
it was naturally desired to keep it con
cealed ; but after the stroll on the par
apet wall, aud the terror created by it
it was thought that, with the object of
preventing a recurrence of a night walk
that might end in some terrible accident, 1
the voung ladv should be consigned to i
some temporary asylum, where there
w ould alw ays be a night and day watch.
I was taken into consultation next
morning, and earnestly discussed the
gravity of taking such a step. It would
be imjiossible to keep it secret, and even
were it possible, in her waking hours,
she would look with horror on the com
ing night, when she should be sent to
lied in a strait-waistcoat. In after
years, too, when perhaps she might have
a young family around her the thought
might arise that she had once been an
inmate of such an institution, and the
reminiscence would make her miserable.
1 duly considered all this, and sugges
ted various expedients, such as sedatives,
sleeping draughts, and network to lie
put round the bed at night. All, how
ever, had been tried in this instance,
and all in vain.
1 then thought
for a litt'c. and hit 1
upon the following plan. I directed
her night dress to be sewed up at the
foot, so that it formed a large bag, and
then I had the sleeves lengthened so
much that each s'eeve, after going
round the body, reached the front, where
it met the other sleeve and was securelv
fastened to it. The whole dress was
loose ; but the long sleeve prevented the
j hands from being 'used to get rid of the
I . " "
dress, while, from the end beinc sewed
up, the feet could not be used in pro
gression. At thf same time the dress
freely permitted the sleeier to ioll
about from side to side in her slumber;
and thus it differed from the hideous
straight-waistcoat then in vogue. Night j
came and our charge retired to lrd in
her new-fangled night dress, with which j
she was amused. The usual hour fur i
the night-walk came. Ifer attendants j
were enjoined not to stir. She raised i
herself as usual in the sitting osture, !
then stood upright, and commenced to j
walk. The second step was a trip, for j
the foot behind held the bottom of the '
bag, in which she stood. She stumbled j
fell forward, and awoke, and was put j
DacK into bed, ami soon fell asleep.
Next morning there was no bad conse
quence except that her face was slight
j ly bruised by the fall. 1 recommended
a continuance ot the .sleeping chemise
for a short time as a cautionary measure.
And now came a curious change in the
phases of the a miction. She would rise
from bed each night, but made no fur- j
ther attempt to walk as before. She j
would stand erect, and kerning the )
knees perfectly rigid, spring straight
upward from the tloor, and thus dance
about the room in what was vears after
ward known as a popular music hall 1
dance under the name of the "Perfect j
Cure." This she would continue until j
thoroughly fatigued, and then retire
quietly to lied and to sleep. I am glad
to add the case did end in perfect cure.
This strange state is generally called
somnambulism. It is really alternating I
i identity in which the ordinary state ol" ,
! mind is susiended. and another identity J
I I do not know what else to call it j
I takes Kssession of the individual, and '
like warp and weft alternates without i
: mixing, the warp presenting continuity :
j at one time, and the weft the same at
! another. One of these alternations !
j occurs most often in sleep, when the or- j
dinary mental jviwer is no longer gov- I
, erning, and hence the attack is called i
somnambulism. The somnambulist will I
weave the somnambulism of one night
with that of the preceding into a con- i
tinuous wrap or weft, and so with the ;
ordinary mental power; and thus the i
two identities alternate but do not mix. .
A young lady under my observation '
exhibited an instance of this. Forsome !
time a somnambulist, the alternating ;
identity at length liecame strong enongh
to intrude upon her waking hours. Her
! ordinary perceptive and voluntary pew
if ls would be suddenly arrested during
the day, and whether at music or work
no matter how employed the interrup
tion was sudden and instantaneous. If
at the piano or harp, voluntary move
ment ceased at the moment ; if walking
' across the floor, she lemained in the po
'. sition in which she was when it occur
I 1 - J , e ... , i .
, ieu, aim icmamcii ior a longer or snort- ;
er time. She would sit at dinner i!-
j parently as cheerful and as collected as j
J any one at the table. At the time of ;
I which I speak it was customary for !
1 guests to take wine with one another, i
: A gentlemen would ask her to take wine, j
i She bowed her head as usual ; and in i
i raising the glass to her mouth there I
suddenly passed over her face and figure ;
j a slight but indescribable shudder, she !
j immediately lost all knowledge of those !
! about her, and would address them with 1
; names quite foreign to them. This j
f state would continue for two davs. un- i
J til at dinner on the third day she would :
turn to ner relative, and say, in her na
tural tone. ' In'd you ask me to take :
w ine ?"' Her natural state then return-
ed ; but those alternations became more i
frequent and more painful, and at length
! me uniorinnare gin was deprived ot tne '
society of all but her nearest relatives.

would awake him. These arrangements
completed, he fi ll asleep in an easy .' tate
of mind. He dot s not know how long
lie slept until he awoke suddenly and
found to his chagrin that the forger was
gone. It is a rule of our agency that if
a man is sent hjmih the trail of a depre
dator, and fails in bringing him back,
lie loses his place ; so you sec that his
reputation as well as his jmsit i"U de
pended uivm his proinpt action. He
piickly decided upon his line of action,
and, walking with assumed carelessness
through t he cut ire car, he examined every
nook and corner that the prisoner could
possibly lie stowed away in. His search
was fruitless. On his return he was ac
costed by a hrakenian, who inquired :

whether there was any i-ossibJe chance
of his getting back to the town that
night. Very fortunately the train Mop

in order to allow a freight train going

in the course of an hour or so was stand
ing in the little village w here he desired.
It was a primitive Ohio hamlet, and the
only alleged hotel it could boast of was
of the most wretched description. The
detective concluded that he could do
nothing at that late hour and in his ex
hausted condition ; so he determined to
obtain a little sleep and scour the coun
try in the morning. With infinite diffi
culty lie succeeded in arousing the
sleepy landlord of the hostlery. 'There
were, no accommodations," he said, in
reply to the detective's qui stion. unless
he was willing to occupy the Mine room
and bed
WITH ANOTHER MAN.
"The detective thought it was better
than sleeping out. so he asked to be
shown the room. He had just disrolied
and was about to extinguish the tallow
dip, when something prompted him to
take a look at his bedfellow. He did
so, and w hat was his surprise to iin l his
whilom prisoner snuggled up in the bed
clothes. Accustomed as he was to re
pressing his feelings upon all occasions,
he could scaicely refrain from a joyful
shov.t at his good fortune, and it was
some time before he recovered bUilicient
calmness to a t w ith coolness. ATter
much self-congratulation he secured tha
forger's clothing to a piece of twine and
suspended them from the window. He
then resumed a portion of las own
clothing and hid the remainder, locked
his door and placed the key in his pock
et, and getting into Hied he placed his
revolver in such a isition that, al
though out of sight, it was vxithin easy
reach, and sank into peaceful slumlier.
In the inornir.g he was awakened by
the sound of some (die talking in the
room, and jM-ering cautiously around he
noticed the forger rumairing alout,
clothed only in an abbreviated under
garment and endeavoring manfully to
give proxT vent to his fel lings in choice
but emphatic expletives. His s'anh
for his clothing proving unavailing. h
approached the 1 w-;I 'pHisite to investi

to Washington, stating that IongstrtH t and
iVauregard were in front, and that all of the
troops in East Tennessee were Ix-ing concen
trated under them. "To give them battle."'
i added Kosecrans, --is a useless sacrifice of
th" venerable Archbishop I'urcell of ( 'inein-
nati, to come at once to bis headquarters.
The Archbishop was somewhat dazed at the
reiptest, but complied w ith it. and procedcl
direct to Chattanooga. When he reached
there Itosearans told him that he expected a
battle, and that it would be fought against
his iK'tter judgment, but underdirect onleis
from Washington he had only one of two
things tn do either to resign or to nb.-y or
ders. The Archhisin ji aurved with kose
crans, that it would not do under the rir
cumstanses to resign, but that he was a
soldier, and that it was his duly to die a
soldier under orders rather than disoh.-y
them. Thereupon Kosecrans told lhe Arch
bishop that a terrible battle was imminent,
and that if he was defeated and fell he w isli
ed hint to vindicate him in history. The
Archbishop proceeded to Nasbvi',1:'. and in
Hospital No. 14 assembled all the Sistets of
Charity and such Cat holies as were tlcie,
and he'ld mass. An altar was i-xtoinpoi ized
out of a piano. The Archbishop s.ii, in suti.
