THE ART OFSLEEPINO.
(Prom the Bcistoa Traveller.l
5.31:118 persons have the gift of sleep,
and reed not cultivate the art of sleeping.
They can lie down and go to sleep any
where, and et any time, and under al
most any conceivable circumstances.
.They can sleep when they are sick, and
sleep away their sickness; they can sleep
when they are in trouble, and forget all
'their cares. They sleep on a soft bed, or
-on a hard one; with.comfortable pillows
under their heads, or without them. They
:could lie down "in the midst of the sea,"
, or "upon the top of a mast," and eleep
—sleep.
And even if they cannot find a place to
stretch themselves, they can still sleep,
bolt upright, in a chair,
„in a car, or any
their heads wagging around, to be
sure, but their senses locked up quietly in
,the arms of sleep—sweet sleep. They
,can do all this on an empty stomach, and
rso forget their hunger; and they can do it
;equally well on a full stomach, and leave
',nature to take care of its load. Such
;people may truly be said to possess the
, ',gift, of sleep. borne persons may call
;them "sleepy heads.;" yet they contrive
to get through the world very comfort
;ably.; and though they may not be lean
and hungry-looking, and may even be in
',closed in their own fat, some of them,
!they are not necessarily heavy and stupid
'when awake. We chance to know some
this breed of sleeping men and wo
men; who are a match for anybody when
!awake. But sleep to them is a gift. not
ian art, nor an acquisition.
There is, however, another class of
ihumans—and much the more numerous
class too—who are poor sleepers, light
'sleepers, dainty sleepers; with whom
;sleep—good, sound, refreshing, continu
ous sleep—is the exception in their ex
. Iperience; and not the rule. These people
,need to study the art of sleeping. And
iirst and foremost, they must carefully
!guard against the use of indigestiblefood
and everything that tends to the derange
:ment of the stomach. Three.quarters of
[all our sleeplessness arises from inquiet
'•ude of the intestinal canal. A plentiful,
hut digestible and simple dinner, a light
and very plain supper taken hours belore
'1 bed time; a sponge bath before "going to
bed, which anybody can have in his own
ichambail a well aired bed room, and not
lover heavy bed clothing, rather light to
begin with, with a- reserve blanket for
;after midnight, if needed—are all wise
precautions for the light .sleeper.
• Light and pleasant employments and
'enjoyments for somi hours before retir
ing are also quite desirable. The diver
ision of the mind from any absorbing, and
I particularly any discomforting and tron
. blesome subject of thought, is also quite
-:lziecessary, and then, a good fair start to
sleep, when the bed is first reached,
its very important. Every man, when be
lgets into bed, should settle himself quiet
.: , at once, and then say—" Now I lay
me down to sleep," and suit his actions
• 'ito the words. If he once begins to turn
• ,
from side to side, it is all over with him.
• It will be all night with him..
There is more in this getting of a fair
' • Start at once, than most people are aware
of. It is like getting a good start in a race
the inside of the ring. After all, how
.; ever, one may be beaten. But the
tchances will be greatly in his favor, if, in
addition to previous precautions and pre
' iparations, he lays himself down at once
Ito sleep.
But suppose he wakes out of his first
. !sleep after an hour or . two. Why then
-: ;he must play 'possum and pretend sleep,
;and Insist that he is only half awake at
• most, an& by no means allow himself to
be fully roused, if he can possibly avoid
!it. People go to sleep by.sections, and
'they wake up ordinarily lathe same way;
•• .and if care is used, the whole man may
--
not be roused, and only a part will have
= ito be quieted again. Yet, atter all, the
`' sleep-seeker may miserably fail of his in
•: 'tended' rest ; for the best device of men
!.!and mice will sometimes gang awry ; and
!then there is nothing bettelto do but to
• • get up for a walk round the room, a
draught of water, a quiet rock in an easy
• *chair, a thorough cooling of the person
=and the bed, and another attempt at sleep.
Above all things avoid getting into a
fret because of your sleeplessness. Don't
• think it a very grievous or unusual thing
for one to be awake three or four hours
on the stretch. It won't kill you. You
' • will soon get used to the thing, or by
patient painstaking will partially over-
come the restless habit. We know men
• who are reasonably hale and hearty,
.lhongh approaching their threescore years
• ! and ten, who yet hardly know from their
!own experience what an uninterrupted
night's sleep means, and whole nights
' are ordinarily broken by hours of wake
. _ fulness. ' •
The will has much to do with one's
sleep. By training, the mind and body
i! may be taught to obey pretty generally
•, the determination of the will, John
Wesley learned to go to sleep when he
would, and where he would, and to sleep
!sisking as he would. If he had half an
i• • _hour's leisure, and needed sleep, he
would throw himself down and take the
required rest. Daniel', Webster, if we
mistake not, had something of the same
power of going to; sleep when he would
And though everybody cannot do ex
scaly as Wesley and Webster did, they
may approximate towards them, by the
persistent exercise of the, will-in control
ling mind and body; and even partial
enemsa will pay well for the trouble

Convention, at. Newport, Rhode Island,
on Wednesday:
AmEannitv, 12th , B m o p, 18 49 , —my
,Dear Frvind : havelreceived Ay letter,
inviting me to attend the convention in
_
behalf 9,f woman's suffrage, at Newport,
- 'I., 'on the 25th inst.', I do not see how
it is . possible for,me to accept the Invite
_ ton, and were it possiblegor me to do so,
the state of my bealth.latdd prevent me
from taking such a pail in the meeting as
would relieve me from the responsibility
•• of seeming to sanction anything in its
, action which might conflict with my own
'views of duty or' policy. Yet I should
do myself great injustice if I did not em
brade this occasion to express my general
sympathy with the movement. I have
seen no good reason why mothers, wives
and daughters should not have the same
' • rights of person, property and citizenship
which fathers; husbands and brothers
have. The sacred memory of mother
w • and sister, the;wisdom and .dignity 'of
women of my own religious communion
who been' aeelehmeo eWeihAl
.
like equillty in rights ea - veil - as duties,
my experience as a co-worker withmoble
and self sacrificing women as graceful
and helpful in their household , du
ties as firm and - courageous - in their
public advocacy of unpopular truth,
the steady friendships which have
inspired and strengthened me, and
the reverence and respect which I feel
for human nature irrespective of•sex,
compel me to look with something more
than acquiescence on the efforts you are
making. frankly confess that I. am not
able to forsee all the consequences of the
great social and politiaid change proposed;
but of this I am at least sure, it is always
safe to do right, and the truest expedien.
cy is simple justice. I can understand
without sharing the misgivings of those
who fear that, when the vote drops from
woman's hends into the ballot box, the
beauty, and sentiment, the bloom and
sweetness of womanhood will go with it.
But IL this matter it seems to_ me we can
trust nature stronger than statutes or con
ventions.,l She will be conservative of all
that the true man loves and honors in
woman. Here and there may be found
an equivocal, unsexed Cheeller D'Eon,
but the eternal order and fitness of things
will remain. I have no fear that man
will be less manly or woman less IVOHNUI-
Iy when they meet on terms of equality
before the law.
On the other hand, Ido not see that
the exercise of the ballot by woman will
proves remedy for all the evils of which
she justly complains. It is her right as
truly as mine, and when she askd for it it
is something less than manhood to with
hold it. Bat, unsupported by a more
practical education, higher aims -and a
deeper sense of the responsibilities of life,
it is not likely to prove a blessing in her
hands any more than in a man's.
With great respect , andhearty sympa
thy, I am truly thy friend,
' JOHN G. WIUTTIPIL
The Coster a California Trip.
A traveler gives the following list of
his expenses from New York to San
Francisco :
Through to New York $l5O
Pullman car to Chicago $3
Pullman car to Omaha 3
Pullman car to Promontory 8
Pullman car to Sacramento 6-20
Meals, seven days, all included .. 15
Total greenbacks 1185
The figures from Chicago, at this rate,
would be about $l6O.
The same writer says:
I rode in a Pullman palace car every
step of the way, and slept soundly every
night, with good, square meals eve ry day.
It is simply a magnificent pleasure ex
cursion and is certainly the most agree
able and comfortable journey in my life.
You engage your Pullman car at the
depot in Chicago as you are starting. On
the way to Omaha you book'(by the car
conductor) to Promotory, and on the way
to Promotory you book to Sacramento
City, (per conductor.) I occupied the
same Pullman car all the way from Oma
ha to the steamboat landing at Sacra
mento, and came down on the steamer
Yosemite. The cars land you directly at
the steamer wharf.
The whole road is in splendid order,
and is a better road than the Erie or Pan-
Handle roads. The Pullman car runs
easily and the road has the "Fish JOint"
all the way from Cheyenne to Sacramen
to City.
Meals are, to Omaha, 75 cents; on the
plains, $1.25; through Nevada and Cal
ifornia, 75 cents, coin, or $l, greenbacks-
Greenbacks go all the way to Bacramen.
to. The first coin I paid out was for
dinner on the Yosemite.
No trouble with baggage, u it is checked
all the way, per the baggage master, as
he passes through the ear.
Peaches
. The esthetic, the sensuous and the sen
timental part' of man seldom meet so
agreeably as they do over a basket of red
peaches, whose cheeks yet seem to burn
with the sun they left in Maryland or
chards. The Persiansi signified love by
the gift of half a peach: Let us love our
selves many times then, while this amber
sun of August lasts. The peach is the
rose cf fruits. Unlike love, it is harmless
in any of its effects. A man once wished
to commit suicide, and, looking about for
an easy death, decided to eat himself to
death on peaches; but the more he ate the
better he felt, till, at the end of his
basket, he cried, "Let me not leave the
world that contains such a beautiful
fruit." An amiable way of partaking of
the peach is to slice it, cover it with
sugar, :end let it remain on ice for an
hour, or till it freezes; then pour equal
parts of sweet wine and cream over the
fruit, eat and realize a, vegetable passion.
A peach club has been formed among
some of our gentlemen of refinement,
who solemnly departed for the sunniest
orchards of the , . Southwest to indulge in
their favorite fruit, as anglers do in trout
fishing. Only one bite is taken out of
the crimson side of a peach. The last
account was 1,331 peaches eaten by the
best sportsman of the party.
The International Boat Race.
A corrected sketch of tbe rice says:
The Oxfords passed Barnes' bridge only
two lengths ahead, the Harvards having
made s brilliant spurt before reaching the
bridge, by lvhich they gained about
tbree•quarters of a length. The cock
swain merely sprinkled water in Loring's
face. The judge says the Harvards were
only half a length, clear water, in the
rear at the finish.
After the race the two crews dined at
Mortlake with Mr. Phillips, who invited
alarge party to meet them. During the
dinner, the Oxford men, in speeches said
the race was, if not the hardest, at least
as hard as any they had ever contested,
and praised the pluck and work of the
Harvards.
The Harvards consider that their steer
ing was rather out, making a possible
difference of from half a length to a
length. Loring was rather unwell, owt
ing to overtraining.
The Harvards aro well satisfied with
their work and • pleased with the arrange
ments which prevented any difficulty dur
ing the race.
The general opinion Is that the racewas
thoroughly well-conducted. Great praise
resounds on all sides for each-crew.
PHILIP GARAUD, of Sank Rapids, Alin
nesota, was bitten by a rattlesnake the
other day. It fastened its fang in his
forefinger, just below the fist joint.
With great presence of mind he forced it
to loosen Ito hold, killed it, tied a string
tightly aroundbis fliger above the bite,
and then. after applying some tobacco to
It, made his way to town for whisky, of
which he drank ,a pint and a half. He
has felt no serious axle from the bite of
the snake.
