"Sleep and Its. Derangeruents,".by William
A.' Hammond, .31.. D. Dr. Hammond has
discovered, by means of an ingenious appa
rates, that the cerebral pressure is considerably
lessened during healthy •slumber, undoubtedly
because of the diminished quantity of blood then
, lowing through the brain. He separates this
• proper sleep from the abnormal stupor caused
by partial congestion, and from his analysis
of these two outwardly like but diametrically.
.4posed kinds of reose, be argues the patho
.' logy, of sleeplessne p ss, nightmare, somnambu
lism, and other, unhealthy conditions. The
book has the advantage of a clear theory,
substantiated by new and interesting experi
ments, and is filled with ingenious advice and
methods of restoring the system to a whole
some condition of periodical rest.
An admirable little text-book for ° seh'ools on
the interesting- science of' geology is " The
Earth's History," by D. T. Ansted, M. A., F.R.
S. In th's minute but pregnant reprint the
great outlines of geological change are made
• clear for the comprehension of youth, and the
still more interesting history of the strange
tribes of living creatures which have sue
' eessively peopled the globe and sunk into its
linty cemeteries is expanded in a style in
tensely interesting to the young and inquiring
• - • mind. The work 'is abundantly illustrated'
with the most telling restorations, copies of
fossils, and diagrams of geological sections,
which last, by the by, generally avoid the fault,
so common in similar pictures, of immensely
exar,gerathig the dip of natural' strata.
The "Early History of the Falls of Schuyl
MU," by Charles V. Haver is insubstance the
combination of two historical lectures delivered
by Mr. Hagner at St. David's Church, Mana
lnnx otSchnvildli the other-.
on
the, beginning of the last dentUry, when a party
.f Welsh epicures from' Philadelphia built a
retired fishing-house bri, the banks of the
Schuylkill, and amused themselves,vvhile dally
ing with the - catfish which then blackened the
narrow passages of the river, by dubbing their
10g-house "Fort St. Davit's" and themselves the
"garrison." , The beautiful Schuylkill at that, date,
as shown in the'frontiipiece to the book, made
a rapid and perilous cataract'' ; opposite the
"fortress." Here originated the. Schuylkill
Navigation Company, which, by creating the
water-power or )31in-seats at Manayunk, was the
primary cause of that town's origin. The name
of Fort St. Davids survived tlie.Revolution (as
Mr. Hagrienstates in contradiction , of Watson
the Anna kt), was mentioned as that of a
pest-route in the almanacs oflBo7, and was used
by the old inhabitants of the "Falls" not many
years back in dating their letters. Our author
suggests replacing the misnomer Falls of
Schuylkill by this historic designation. The
book goes on to describe the settling of Mana
yunk and inception pf the Fairmount works.
It is filled with such personal reminiscence as
can only come from one whose interest has a
'birthright on the soil. It, has little biographi
cal sketches of the worthy millers and manu
facturers who formed the place, as well as of
less pretentious settlers, such as old Godfrey
- Schronk, who, as late as 1817, ,could catch
three thousand catfish in the river
with his - Alp-net'in •a ~ single night ;
good Joseph Neef, the schoolmaster, himself a
disciple of Pestalozzi, who raced and played
with his boys, and . whose mental-arithmetic
class easily put, Zera Colburn. 'to confusion;
and the hermit liontelier, who lived in a hut
with his cat and his Chinese porcelain, and of
whom a portrait sketched by Mr. Breton is in
serted. Beading this book is to dream a
drearn of the olden time, and to establish many
indistinct traditional figures and anecdotes
with the appurtenances - of Local - habitation and—
name. It is neatly published by Claxton,
Nemsen & Haffelfinger.,
"The Young Debater and Chairman's As
sistant," written by an ex-member of the
Philadelphia bar, furnishes, m handy shape, the
rules of parliamentary order, with hints and
forms for the preparation of petitions, resolu
tiOns, and various semi-official documents.
“The American ,Housewife and Kitchen DV
rectory" has minute instructions for rich and
pain cooking, housekeeping recipes, and illus.
tmted directions for carving. It is one more
added to the countless "cartloads of good in-
Structions"•which render inexcusable the sins
,cof that grant criminal, the American House
keeper. What • is wanted, however, is
soros inventiveness and novelty in the
variation of cheap dishes, such as
the French minagire is such a proficient in.
Would not a collection of every-day French re

not afford expensive marketing, have 'a mn . in

An Affecting Incident at Vicksburg—The
Difference Between 1869 and 11569-l U
ntimely Death of Col. Leonidas Slasher.
VICKSBURG (which is in the State uv 2dissis
sippi), Oct. 12, 1809.—One uv the most affectin
insfflents wich ever come under my netts
transpired at the Southern Cross Hotel, in. this
city, yesterday. I hey wept oshens uv tears in'-
nay day, and hey seen all Sorts uv horrible
deaths, but never one with teched my heart as
the untimely decease uv, Col. Leonidas Slasher.
uv the interior, wich took place yesterday.
I`regretted the kernel's death for meny
• reasons.= I hed only made his acquaintance
five days (he bed bin in town that time), and
hed consekently only succeeded in borrowing
$l3 uv him ; $3 at one time and $5 at two
other times. He bed money • and wus flush
with, it; and I hed confidently counted on sub
sisten on him for at least roar weeks. Troo
his death settles wat borrered uv him, but
that's no consulashen. Ez soon ez he got well
acquainted with me he'd a never thought uv
askin me for it anyhow. In addishun to this
greet', with is purely personal to myself, the
colonel Was - a chivalrous southerner uy the old
sltool, He wuz n't in the confederit Beryls
hisself, but; sich wus his deyoshen to the coz
- thab 40 forced into tbe field All the poor whites
in his visinity, and hunt% sich es woodcut .go
out us , the country with dorgs. He was, a troo
gentleman. He wore, ruffled • shirts, took the
National Intelligenteri and drank his brandy
and-water without water.
'_The kernel knowd that the war wuz
that the South bed bin subjugated and recoil,-
strueted, but hedn't any idee ,uv the changis
wich hed taken place. He hed lived •on his
plantashen out uv the reech 'lv the world. all
this' time. ' He sposed that reconstruction
meant simply that ef he shoed be elected to
Congris he wood hey to go' to Washington to
set lasted uv Richmond, wich he expected to
_do next t m. _ •
The kerne, and I wuz in, the' orfis uv the
hotel, when his. bebmin eye happenin to
rest onto the' register, it lighted onto this
name:
" Wendell Phillips, Boston, Mass."
The kernel staggered ez tho he hed bin
struck in the face. "Wendell Phillips ! in
Vixburg! Good Heavens! where is he?"
Capt. McVay, wich wuz settin by, pinted to
a tall, gaunt man, in a stove-pipe hat, wich
wuz settin by the stove readin the Noo York
Herald, and remarkt "That must be him."
The kernel gritted his teeth, and au expres
sion uv intense pleasure rested ontolds counte
nance. "Captin, git a rope. Major, see of
that lamp-post is high enuff to string this Yan
kee-up to, and, gineral, git some -of the boys
together immejitly. I'll help hang one more
Yankee, afore 'I die, anyhow I" - - -
And the impetuous kernel made for the sup
pozed Phillips. He slapt him in the face, at
• web the Yankee riz and floored the kernel,
and at it they went, tooth and toe-nail—the
wust small fite I ever see. They wuz finally
dragged apart by the clerk of the hotel and the
bystanders—the two wuz arrested by a police
man handy by, and draged off to a magis
trate's (Ails, when upon a heerin uv the case
the kernel was fined $2O and costs..
"Wut 1.5 this?" he asked. "Fine me for Hokin
a Yankee wich we wuz about to hang? Why,
square, do you know who 1 am, and who
he is ?"
"Shl Sh I" said the kernel's friends, wich
hed jest rusht in. "Pay yer fine—it woodent
do for us to hey you let off for lickin a ablish
nist. The niggers woodent like it, and it wood
lose us their vote. Pay, and say nothin."
"Wat !" replied the kernel, turnin pale. They
said nothin, but paid the fine for him and hur
ried him away.,
The kernel went to his room in a most fear
ful state uv mind, =Merin ez he walked,
"Can't lick an ablishnist in Vixburg? Fine
me for lickin ablishnists to please a set
uv d-d. niggers Can't lick an ablishnist—
wat--."
When he got to his room he sat down and
drawed a long sigh. Buryin.his face into his
bands, he wept a half hour, and then fell
faintin from his chair. • I picked the old
man up and put him to bed, after which. I.
chafed his limbs with whisky and put a bottle
uv it to his Bps and mine. - He showed Some
signs uv life, and in perhaps an hour cood utter
words in a faint and feeble way.
"I—can't—hang—a ab—lishnist any more 1
Oh!" • .
. "And the poor old man relapst. struggled
with hirli for fifteen . minks, When he agin.
.opened his eyes; This time he wuz calm, tho*
he spoke with an evident effort.
"Nasby," sed he, in a hoarse • Whisper, 4 .103
time I wuz cone. It's time that the old stock
either died peacefly or committed sooicide.
There ain't no more room for em. I 'never
thot ten, years ago that the time wood ever'
come when I cood'ent hang a nigger- or a
Ablishnist in Mississippi; but it hez come and
Pm a comberer nv • the ground. First, sly
niggera is set free ; next, they vote ; then I'm
lined for lickin s Ablishniat; and finally Pni
told that I musn't bang one uv em. ' Good
Lord uld, is there left to live for ! 11ere,;take
this rope, take these pistols, and this !bowie
knife, and hang em up in remembrance {iv me.
I die sad and glad. Sad, to think things is ez
they is—glad to go ez 1 can't better em."
At thi:spint I fed hira a,L,fttle. 'nv

• An Incident of Frontier Life.
General R. B. Marcy's new chapter of “Bor
der Reminiscences," in the November number
of Harper's Magazine, contains the following:,
"The regiments are usually so' widely dis
persed in small garrisons that it is difficult for
them to establish anything like regimental
messes, such as are found in the English army,
Yet at. one station in Tekas c quite a respectable
mess was formed, and the Majority of the offi
cers of the' regiment joined it. But,unfor
tunately for the aspirations of some of the
young subalterns, their finances had become so
low,
and they were so deeply involved
in debt, as to be unable to pay the
somewhat extravagant mess bills of thelarge
association, and they were obliged to 'rough
it' by themselves in a more frugal manner,
chiefly upon supplies obtained at low rates
from the commissary. Indeed, I heard of one
lieutenant (but I will not vouch for its literal
authenticity) whose purse became so perfectly
depleted at one 'time that for several weeks be
was compelled to subsist upon'';rice alone.
During this period of fastinc , it, unfortunately
so fell out that a friend Of his' from a neighbor
ing post paid him a most unseasonable visit,
not having the
,slightest previous conception or
warning or th scanty fare he was destined to
encounter. -
"The impoverished lieutenant put the best
possible face upon the meagre conditiOn of his
larder, and received him with..hts usual urbane
hospitality at about the hour for.dinner, when
it was too late, however, even had it been in
his power, to have made much change
in his bill , of fare, except to borrow a
-little mustard from a brother officer, which he
imagined might make the rice diet more palata
ble. The dinner was soon announced, thetwo
friends seated themselves at the pine camp-table,
when the host raised the solitary cover, and,
in a very beseechhag way, inquired of his guest
if he should help him to rice. The latter, con
ceiving this dish to be the preliminary courie,
like 'raw, oyste.rs on the half shell,' replitet‘
'No, I thank you; I never eat rice.''Then,'
said the lieutenant not a, little perplexed asio
what be -should do or say next, and as a des
perate dernier ressort under the exceedingly
embarrassbig circumstances, 'help Yourself ,to
Imustard, for, if ir,ouean'get anything else in this
ranch you are smarter than I am. ' . '
Posthumous Letter of Andrew Jackson.

HERMITAGiI, May 11, 18:37.-=-Gentlemen :
Your kind letter conveying your charity of two

hearing that I was broke, and a bill drew:by r
me for $6,000 had been returned protested, has
been received r and, as you have been imposed
upon by . the vile falsehoods; that are daily cir
culated by the Whiggs, your charity is herewith
returned to You, that you may dispose of it, in
charity, to such of the Whiggs that may hate
been erriyklyed in trading in stocks and lands
and swindling the poor. Have the,goodness
to inform all your , friends that I have not
drawn a draft for .any sum on any one Sot'

charity, having lona ° since learned to liVe withL
in my own means. Your charity is therefore
,returned to you[ in the same envelope you sent
it, supposing, from the material and great care

the objects of charity in : your city would be
much injured if not returfiedto you.
With great respect and- grateful feeling for

October 21, 1809.—Hon. Benjamin Ilari•is
Brewster, AilOnley-General—DEAß SIR : . You
have on several occasions told me that. when
ever I might deem it to my interest, or the
welfare of the CommOnvrealtb, you would at
once relinquish the office of ." Attorney-
General" into my hands. That time has now
arrived, and I, therefore, respectfully and
earnestly request that you immediately tender
to, me your resignation, to' take effect 'without
delay.. Your compliance will much oblige
'Yours,'etc., JOIEi W. GEARY.

terday Me, Harmer handed to me your letter
of the 21St of October. It requires my re.sig,
nation "immediately and without delay," and
assigns no cause for the request. It is a per=
omptory .demand most unusual arnotiggentle
men and uncalled for in this particular case, -
After my receipt in July' last of the letter Of
Nr. Covode, made public in the columns of the
'daily press, in which he requested my resigna
tion, and assumed to do so by your authority,
you sent a special message to me by. Mr. Lewis
. Walu Sinith,lhe Deputy Attorney-General, de
' siring me not to regard his letter, and assuring
me that it was unauthorized and that its pub
limtion. was nnainhorized. - Notwithstanding -
that I felt,a sense of wrong in your silence and
neglect to make a public disclaimer of that let
ter, yet I submitted quietly for the sake of
the party and its cause, knowing well that
any
.agitation.: of the subject .on my part
would involve you and peril your election.
This you applauded at Corry a fortnight ago,
when, „of ysur own accord, you came to see
me, and when we last saw each other; and
then you expreSsly said to me and Mr. Lowry,
and, I telleve, to Gen. Kane, that our relations
were tuichan r ged ; to nie you said that all of
the action" Of Mr. Covode, in the letter . before
mentioned, and in a telegram sent by him to
me, and which I: exhibited to you, was unau
thorized, and you then in severe terms con
demned his conduct. as • brutal and
meriting " punishment. You • wished me
to wait until after . the , election,
when I might deal with these men who had
put au affront on me. You then tbariked_me_

your personal and official confidence in me
and left me, making arrangements with me for
an important official duty to be performed with
you . . To Mr. thniimings; who--went -to you,
Specially deputed by me, to confer. With you
on the-subject•about three-weeks-ago, you ex
pressly iterated and reiteratedlyour confidence
in me, saying that you had no cause
of complaint, and no wish to
remove Me or have me resign. The otter of
my resignation, referred to in your letter,
was frequently made by me and Others for_
me, and was always refused - tit:yeti as hurtful
to your prospects. It was made from motives
of personal convenience; and to help your re
nomination and silence,the calumnies of men
--w-ho-were-your—enemies—As an instance of
your feeling towards whom I would recall to
you your course in reference - to Xt. Keiiible,
whom you 'told Me you suspected of being a
defaulter, and by your express direction had
me, send you twice an . accountant from • the
city, to verify' your supposed • discovery of his
delinquencies, and against whom you said I
should proceed as soon as you were re-elected.
Now you write to me demanding my resig
nation, and assign no - canse,tnt leave me open
to imputations, to which I will not submit. I
will not permit you, at the instance of a class
- you denounced to inc as,corrupt factionists,
and one of whom you instructed me to 'prose

convenience . and received _my . help,] thus •to
evict me from a place' I never. sought, and
which you'iloliCited me to accept, and which I
have held with due respect to my public duty
and my own honor.
After this course of duplicity or vacillation
to me it is indifferent whieh—serve with you I
