HOW TO GEC SLEEP.—This Is to many
persons a matter of the highest impor
tance Nervous persons, who are tremb
led - with wakefulness and excitability,
usually have a strong tendency of blood
on the broil', with cold extremities.
The pressure of the blood on the brain
keeps it in a stimulated or wakeful state,
and the pulsations in the head are often
painful. Let such rise and, chafe the
body. and extremities with a brush or
towel, or rub smartly with the hauds, to
promote circulation and withdraw the
excessive amount of blood trout the
brain, and they will fall asleep in a few
moments. A cold bath, or a sponge
bath and rubbing, or a goad run, or, a
rapid walk In the open air, or going up
or down stairs a few times Just before
retiring, will aid In equalizing circula
tion and promoting sleep. These rules
are.-simple and easy of application In
castle or cabin, and may minister to the
comfort of thousands •who would freely
expend money for nn ltnedYne to pro
mole ltnatitre's sweet restorer, balmy
sleep!"

A PIXCKY old fellow, whose son was
a student at a New England College,
spent the day with him and stopped to
tea. When his cup was filled he seised
a howl of salt, which he supposed to be
sugar, and put the usual quantity in his
tea. Sly glances and suppressed "snick
ering" led him to suspect thatsomethlng
VW wrong, but the old fellow, who
didn't like to be laughed at, worried It
down; and puttingoo a face that was In
tended to make everybody think that
he liked his dpse of salts, he willed tar
another cup, and upon receiving It, said
to the head snlekerer: "Young man,
will you be kind enough to pass that
bowl of salt?" The salt was passed, and
In the most breathless *llene°, he dipped
a couple of spoonsfuls into his tea, stirred
It up, and tasted it with a look of appa
rent satisfaction. "Wby, Mr. -,"
said the young man opposite him, "doyen
drink salt in your tea?" "Always," an-.
swereti the plucky old man, with great
emphasis, and in his pleasantest tnanner.
Jonas W—, who some years ago
filled the office of county judge in
County, though a good lawyer, was very
eccentric. When a session of the Court
wag to be held, he would often take it
into his head to walk to the county seat,
a distance of thirty miles. On one oc.
casino, however, he employed a horse
and buggy, and after spending a couple
of weeks in the hearing of causes, started
for home on foot. When he had traveled
something like a dozen miles be called
at a hotel for rest and refreshments._ The
landlord, recollecting 'that the Judge
drove a horse when he went to main,
inquired;
"Judge, what have you done with the
horse and buggy you had with you when
you went to the other day r?
"Thunder?" replied the Judge; "I
have left them behind. I knew as soon
as I started that I ha Jra sPROMPIE

Jr may or It may not be that moat
of our young men, In going to the Far
West, are actuated by a laudable spirit
of enterprise and a desire to extend the
humanizing influences of civilisation,
but we fear this Is not always the case.
Occasslonally an example comes to light
that discloses a different Impulse. For
lailtltriCel In the summer of 18fw four
young gentleman met for the first time
In Omaha City, and purchased a team to
cross the Plains. After having traveled
a hundred and fifty miles west of the
Missouri River, one of the party thus ad
dressed his companions:
" Boys. We are now safe from ollieera
and the laws; let each of us some out,
tell what our real names are, and what
we ran away for!" Particulars of col
loquy not given.
A NEW definition pf constitutional
laziness comes from Ohio. Standing on
the steps of one of the "single-team"
taverns of that State was an unwashed
Buckeye, whose shabby exterior did not
indicate an industrious man. A gen
tleman On the opposite side of the street
remarked to his companion ;
"There le old Tim, again ; wonder how
he got out this cold day! He is the
laziest man in town by all odds."
" Lazy!" replied hie friend, "he isn't
lazy • what's the matter with him la he
was horn tired!"
THE residivtio , gr the Efahrow race
Dot gpdiug spe,cipus answers to the com
plaints of the who deal with them was
never better set forth than in a recent
instance where an eating-house keeper
of that persuasion sold soup at two cents

his basinful complained that he had not
had his money's-worth—the soup was
bad, and he had found In it a piece of
worsted stocking. Isaac sort ed

A FERVID young OCR Vert In Minnesota,
during a recent revival, feeling great

• NEW TOWS SCANDAL.
Just now the fashionable portion of
the city are revelling in a new excite
ment We have Pere a gentleman who,
through hts_business, is as well known
as is Bonner, Harper or Stewart. He
lives In fine style, has a splendid house,
and. is surpaesed by no one In the ele
gance of his turnout on Central Park.
It was long supposed that his housekeep
er wax his wife. It turns out that he
does not live with his wife, and that she
has been for a long time supporting her
self in this city by her needle. She is a
very elegant and accomplished lady.
For her children's sake she held her
peace for a long while. The elegant
gold embroidery which made such a
sensation at the Paris exhibition was
from her needle. She found a friend in
the head of one of our fashionable estab
lishments, and the fashionable and elab
orate embroidery worn by the ton of
New York was the handiwork of this
lady. Recently her husband made a
proposition to her. lie promised to set
tle on her a handsome sum of money if
she would allow him to obtain full di
vorce under our laws. The proposal
was so infamous that the lady resolved
to bear her neglect and sorrow in silence
no longer. She issued a beautifully
printed circular, announcing herself by
her husband's name, meting Ma bust
peso, ao there could ?Jo no mistake about
the identity, offering her services to the
fashionables of New York ; assigning as
a -reason for the offer that she wished- to
obtain bread for herself and children,
and stating that she could be found dai
ly at a fashionable dress making estab
lishment on Broadway. These circulars
were scattered broadenst among the
fashionable families of New York, and
any quantity of them were sent by pri
vate hands to the husband. His indig
nation is unbounded, for he has great
personal pride. New York has a nine
dap' wonder. People crowd the rooms
where the lady is advertised to be seen,
and where she sits day by day, with
"stitch, sticth, stitchl" with the golden
thread of her embroidery. What the
illSda will he remains to hr Seep.—New

SCHOOL Boy's COMPOSITION.—Winter
Is the coldest season of the year, because
It comes in winter mostly. In some
countries Winter comes In the summer,
and then it is very pleasant. I wish
winter came in summer in this country,
which is the best government the sun
ever shone upon. Then we could go
skating barefooted, and slide down hill
in linen trousers. We could suow-ball
withQUl getting our fingers Gold, and men
who go sleigh-riding wouldn't have to
stop at every tavern to get warm, as they
do now. It snows more in winter than
It does in any other season of the year.
SOMEBODY, speaking of the hurrying
propensities of the Yankees, nays: "If
a uig 121Prtfir could be constructed,
which would throw en immense bomb
shell, containing fifteen passengers,
from St. Louis to Boston In five min
utes, •wlth an absolute certainty that
fourteen would be killed by the explo
sion, tickets (or seats by the 'Express
Bomb-shell Line' would at once be at a
premium, each passenger being anxious
for the chance to prove himself the
lucky fifteenth."
J.tatEs M. OnANT, at Bridgeport, re

notice was the first she had heard of the
matter. Last week Mrs. Grant received
information from England that a de

1101C6IBLE ATOOCITY IN LOUISIANA
[From ttiel'inw Orleans Timm]
Some time ago Eddie Smith, a white
boy of eleven years of age, was killed In
the moat cold-blooded manner In the
parish of Fel Wane. The deed created the
most Intense excitement, and two ne
gross, John Cook and Edmond Harri
son, were arrested and held for trial,
which took place on the 2St.h ult., and re
sulted in the conviction of Edmond Har
rison and the discharge of the boy John
Cook, who became State's evidence, and
made a full confession, which Is subjoin.
ett : My name isJohti Cook, am fifteen or
sixteenyearn old, was born and raised
on the plantation adjoining that of Mrs.
West, where Eddie was killed. Had
been living with Mrs. West one year.
Uncle Edmond Harrison, three weeks
before Eddie was killed, came to me and
wanted me to kill Eddie. He said that
Mrs. West had taken away his mare,
and he intended to have vengeance on
her fot It. He offered me S:11 to kill Ed
die, Mrs. West's grandson. I told him I
would not do-IL—he kept on at me to do
it, telling me that the boy was in our
way, and I had better kill lihn. Uncle
Etlenoud came to me mix times to kill
Eddie within the three weeks before I
would agree to do it—always offered me
money to do it, On the morning that
Eddie was killed, Uncle Edmond came
to my tether's house before daylight.
(Edmund lived on Mr. Ogden's planta
tion about a mile from our quarter.) He
called me out and kept on persuading
me to kill Eddie, and said I must do it
that morning. I refused to do It. After
awhile Uncle Edmond said that Eddie
had come out and started hunting. Un
cle Edmond told me now is a good
chance, go do It, still offering me money
to do so. I at laid agreed to do It, and I
went In my father's house and got his
gun. I went to my brother's house and
got about a half a load of powder and
one hall, And loaded my gun, using a
tow wad. Uncle Edmond and I then
started oft together; I 'didn't know
which way he was going, but followed
Uncle Edmond. We overtook Eddie
about' one hundred yards outside of the
gate and about two hundred yards from
the house. When we drat got near him
Uncle Edmond told me to step up cud
shoot, as I had such a light load. Eddie
was looklr gat me and laughed. I then
stint Eddie—ho fell on his knees and
kept grunting. Uncle Edmond then
leveled his gun on him to shoot him; I

but he mild he would, and lie would be
glad If all the damned reps were killed.
He then put hie gun close to Eddle's
head, and shot a hole through his head.
Eddie was not killed by my shot—and I
felt sorry for having shot him, as I had
nothing against hiw—nud I told Uncle
Edmond that I was going to tell Mrs.
Smith, Eddie's mother. He told me no:
to do it—if I did they would hang me.
Uncle Edmond then took Eddie and
threw him on my shoulders, and told
me to take him Into the woods*nd cover
him up in the leaves, and that he would
stay there said cover up the hiltiwat. Un

A PARAMUS!: FOR DEBTORS.
It Is proposed to admit Arkansas into
the Union with the Constitution said to
have been adbpted recently. Among
other striking provisions In that
Constitution, the article on "exempt
ed property" provides that the per
sona/ property of any reshloot,
to the value of two thousand dollars,
and a Homestead to the value of five
thousand dollars, shall be exempt
from sale on execution or other final
process of court. This leaves a pretty
good fortune in the bands of a debter,
amounting to seven thousand dollars.
Bs may snap his fingers at any creditor
or any score of them, to whom he owes
from $5O to 31,000 each, and live on un
disturbed with his seven thousand dol
lars, worth of property, The Radicals
are charged pretty generally with a pro
pensity th plunder. But the Arkansas
Radicals are determined that creditors
shall make no raid on debtors, and that
the Radical rascals of that State shall
not be subject to any judgments at law
for their debts. At all vents, they
shall forever be worth seven thousand
dollars, if they please, to be in good per
sonal and real property, and no creditor
shall - endanger a dollar of It. We won
der how much such a constitutional pro-
vision will add to the credit of citizens
of Arkansas? Or, whether it will tend
to Induce traders to extend oredlt to the
people of that State?
A TREE IS WHIRLED THROUOH A

A few nights ago a terrible storm visited
the country some sixteen miles from
Nashville. The Nashville Banner says:
On Wednesday night Mr. Simpson
and the other inmates 9f his house bad
retired to bed, when, about 10 o'clock,
and while the storm was fiercest, he was
awakened by a tremendous crash, fol
lowed by the fulling of timbers upon
and r.ear his person, after s }Lich he re
membered nothing until so far recovered
from his numerous bruises ae to realize
the awful havoc which had been done.
On the floor lay his wife and daughter,
covered with blood, and apparently
lifeless. In the fireplace he found his
infant child, badly cut, but not serious
ly injured. A tree, which measured
fully three feet to diameter, and the
butt of which passed completely through
the house, explained the disaster.
Hurled by the violence of the tempest
from the summit of the hill, It had come
down on its mission of destruction with
terrible force. After entering by a rear
door, it crushed to pieces the beds In
which Mr. Simpson, his wife and
daughter, were sleeping, dashing them
against the walls, and co severely injur
ing the two last mentioned that but lit
tle hope of their recovery is entertained.
As the huge butt of the tree crashed
through the front of the house, it carried
all before it t and brought part of the
roof- His wife and daughter may not
