TIME «JOE!* BY TURNS.
[The following lines arc by Robert South
well, an ßnglish Kornau Catholic, born in
1560, ahd executed at Tyburn in 1595:]
The lopped tree la time will grow again,
Most naked plants renew both fruit and flower;
The sorriest wi^tjmaj flnil relcaae from pain ;
The dry«nt toil sacks in dome moistening shower;
Time gbei by turns, and chances by coarse,
From foul to fair, lrom bet ter bap to worse.
The sea of fortune does not ever flow :
She draws her fàror» to the lowest ebb ;
Her tides have equal times to come and go ;
Her loom doth weave the tine and coarsest web ;
No joy so great, but all its irlow doth spend,
No hap so hard but runneth to an end.
Not always fall of leaf, nor ever spring ;
Not endless night, nor yet eternal day;
The saddest birds a season find to sing;
The roughest storms a calm may soon alloy ;
Thus, with succeeding terms, God tempereth all,
That man may hope to rise, yet fear to fall.
A chance may win, that by mischance was lost;
That net, that holds no great take« little fish;
In some things all, in all things none are crossed ;
Few all things need, and noue ha»« all they wish.
Onmingled joys here to man befall ;
Who least, hath some; who most, have never all.
A T brkibls P bebiotiom .— Professer Le
onidas, an Indianapolis astrologer, aftef
looking at the ringsaronnd the sun, makes
the following horrible prophecy;
I observed by the planets that a dread
ful plague will commence in Russia, otig
inutiog 'from silks brought over from
Egypt, Cairo, and Turkey. It will extond
acroaa the Baltic sea, England, and then
spread to the United States. This dread
ful epidemic will spot tho people liko a
leopard, and then turn the ilesh to a pur
ple black. The pestilence will carry off
»uch an amount of mortals that there will
not be enough left to bury the dead or give
them christian burial. The streets of our
cities, towns, and villages will be swarmed
with the dead and dying. The groans and
yells of horror will fill every breast with
consternation. Confusion will abound ou
all sides. The death knell will cease to
toll as the malady rages in fury. The in
flicted will fall and die wherever they take
it. The stench of the dead will become so
common that the survivors will not
heed it.
S leep and F resh A ir .—A paper read to
the French Academy of Science by M. Del
brück, broaches a now theory. He thinks
it "singular that while all medical men are
unanimous in prescribing several cubic me
ters of pure air for each person sleeping in
a room as absolutely essential to health,
all animals appear to shun the open air as
much as possible, in order to compose
themselves to sleep. Thus, the lion and
tiger retire to some dark cavern, where the
air is confined; the dog goes to Iii» kennel,
and thrusts his snout under his belly; birds,
to which the open air would appear to be a
necessity, whether asleep or awake, retire
to some private corner, and put their heads
under their wings. Nay what does the
school-boy do when left in a dormatory
aiied with particular care i If he finds he
cannot fall asleep, the fiirst thing he does
is to bury his head among the bed-clothes.
Hence,if, when awake, we must inhale a
certain quantity of tili« gas during sleep,
just as plants exhale by day the oxygen
they absorb during the night." Hall's j
Journal of Health quotes this passage, and, |
instead of discussing it philosophically, |
vents its indignation in harsh words.
We have lio doubt there it> a partial truth |
in the suggestion of the French savan.
Sleep is trie lowuriug of the lino of thu j
body and brain', during which the temper
ature of both, as tested by the thermome- j
ter, is lowered. The lungs, during; sleep, i
take in very much less of air; and ifivom j
any cause the inspiration of the sleeper i* !
as frequent and full as that of the waking
man, his sleep if fevered and without re
freshment.. If the ordinary air wasoxy
?:enated, a person breathing it would hard
y get any sleep, unless of a congestive sort
Air in which a portion of the oxygen has
boen consumed would have a contrary ef
fect. The phenomena of respiration have
been compared to those of combustion.
When we wish to put the coal-fire to sleep
over night, we put ashes on it to keep off
the fresh air, or we reduco tho draught to
the minimum. If we allow the air to be
deoxygenized the result is the same.
The object of sleep is to suspend many
vital functions, and to retard and give re
pose to others. It is not perfect when tho
'•combustion" is lowest; though of course
there are imitations to such a theory. The
hybernation of polar animals, and the
phenomenon of the long life of frogs,e tc.,
imbedded in stone, which have been un
explained, may derive some light from the
theory we have advanced.
l-gf In our telegraphic news Sunday,
brief mention was made of the death of
Judge Ilaliburton, who years ago became
celebrated as the author of -'Sam Slick' :
and|various other amusing works. Judge
Ilaliburton was a native of Nova Scotia.
Early in life he was admitted to the bar,
and ho rose through the different grades
of the profession till he became ono of the
Judges of the Supremo Courts of his na
tive Province. Ho, however, had a pas
sion for literature and even when profess
ional duties pressed on him most heavily
he alwaytf managed to find a leisure hour
in which to indulge his favorite pursuit.
His first work of any iniportauce was his
"History ofNova Scotia," an able, impar
tial and dignified production, which es
tablished his reputation, at least in Pro
vincial circles. About thirty years ago ha
contributed to a Halifax newspaper called
the jfoiaecotian, then under tne editorial
îuauagoraent of the Hon. Joseph Howe, a
series of sketches entitled "Sayings and
Ooings of Samuel Slick, of Slickville."
These sketches, founded on the eccentrici
ties of Yankee and Provincial character,
became exceedingly popular both in Amer
ica and üurope. Eventually they were
collected and published in book form, and
passed through more editions than any
modern work. "Sam Slick" was followed
by various other works lrom the same pen.
About, ten or twolve years ago, Judge Ilal
iburton removed to England where he per
manently settled, and eventually he was
elected to a scat in the Parliament of Great
llritain—an unusual honor to a colonist.
Though fluent in speech he never became
celebrated as a debater. Of late years his
health failed him, and now lie has gone
down to those narrow halls where "the
weary rest," at the ripe age of probably
three scoae years and ten. He was an able
jurist, a good writer and a worthy man.—
A r . 0. Times,
Abe H ops R unning O ct .—The compar
ative failure of the crop in portions of Ot
sego and otlior counties, says the Albany
(New York) JourruU, has led some to fear
that hops are running out. For three or
tour years the vines have been covered with
small white insects. They are called îiee;
aie very annoying to pickers, and in many
instances destroy the bulb, causing the
leaves to have a black and blasted appoar
unce. They are rather more numerous
and destructive this year than usual. Va
t ions effort* to exterminate them have been
made, but hitherto without success.
