Notts) Abont the Charming Author. 8. 'W. Oakey in the March Bcrlbner. In tho summor of 18S2 Washington Irving roturnod to America. Tho ex citement produced by his coming and the enthusiostis recoptlon ho had wero unexpected te him, and I think gave him oxtromo ploasuro. Tho dinner given to him in Now York, at which Mr. Ducr epoko with so much elo quence, was an unequalod ovation. He passed somo days at my father's, in Boston. Ho was a very different looking person from tho ono I had cx poctod to -aco. Ho was short, Btout,1 and drcessd in a tight suit ot black, -with a wig; but his boautiful eyes and) dcllghtlul snillo and his expression of bonovolonco and sweetness gavo a pro-! "vailing -charm. Tho meeting between him and Mr. .Newton ustuart Newton), who was, with us, was pathotio. They embraced 4tnd4ii33cdliko Frenchmen, and almost Mr. Irving was shy , and quiot, as 1 beliovo ho always was among stran gers. 'Ho foil asleep aftor dinner, Many i persons camo in tho ovoning. Tho next morning Mr. Irving, .Ur. Nowton and I drovo out to Fresh a?ond. We at upon tho banks, and in 'this so oial-lntercourso ho was delightml, as ho over was to mo afterward. He rand Mr. .'Newton talked and laughed ovor '0ld-sccno3 and evonts with wit, humor iand, pathos; talked of Peter Washing ton's older brother), Jekvil, (Fowoll, and othor old friends, and I am fortt mate in being ablo to recall -such a 'morning. iln 11849, when dining with us in INow York, Mr. Irving told us no was on1 tho dock when the first exporimcnt was mado with Fulton's steamor. The crowd lookod on with breathleso iater- ost.'but as tho boat moved oC evvoico was heard saying: Sho may go very well for a ittme, ibuteive mo a good sloop," Mr. Irving was a great lovor. of mu miIo a tender, not a knowing lover of it; ho-know nothing of tho technique llthavo seen him shed tears at aballad. .Ho enjpyod hearing GUles, tho famous vloloncollo player at that time; and onoo, in speaking of hint, the color rose i to his faco and ho exeIaimed:"Ah iUsxleUghtfull Ho is a Gne follow. I Ho plunges down and seizes a fat -semi breve by the tall and brings it vrrjg filing .up." Irving's lovo for children .and .pa tienoo with thorn was very great, --and oneo oallcd forth from a woman whoao restless children he had amused w&llo traveling, this groatful common t: Many thanks, sir, for your good ness; it is plain you aro tho father, of a largo lamlly." Washington irving's career lis -so familiar to every Amorlcra that it would ibo useless to saytnoae of 'him but tho lovo, affection, and 'tender interest ho inspired can only be known by tkoso who have lived among ihia friends.

Tho historian, the wealth seeker, and the "carious" can hero find a rkahdold and reward for thoir labor.

On tho eastern slops of tho Manzana mountains no quartz has bocn fouud excopting in a very burned and blackened condition. This part of tho country will porhaps yield immenso mineral wealth in time, and further developments and prospecting aro awaited with great intorest to many. Tho walls of somo of tho old ruins at Abo are six foot of solid stone lime and red sand tho walls in places are yet six foot in height and in a state of perfect porsorvation. In tho ruins aro found vessels of various doslgns and slees mado of pottery somo ropro- sontrig birds and animals. Stone hanwnors aro lound hero, but no indi cations that sharpedged tools wero used in this ancient period.

Hobert Nolson, of Rochester, N. Y., has for somo tlmo past boon known among his intimate personal friends, as bolng n filleted to a peculiar and unusual dogreo with insomnia. It was stated that for several months at a tlmo ho was in tho habit of going without sleep whothor from inclination or necessity was not ascertained. Thcfects seemed sufficiently marked to warrant an in vcstlgatlon, and so was sought at his residence. Mr. Nelson, who is frank; nnd gontlomanly, was surprised that ho should bo brought into nowspapor no torloty. "I did not say," oxplalnod Mr. Nelson, "that I had ovor boon wluV out sleep for four months. But last summor I baa no sleop whatovor during any of tho succeeding 'days or nights in moro than Ihroo months. I had no object in remaining awako so long; that condition was the reversoof what I de sired. In fact my frionds iworovery anxious about mo and feared that tho seemingly unnatural 'condition' I was in might dovclop into .physical or mental dorangomcnt.

(I didn't try very hard to sleep, for the truth is, I din't fool sleepy or drowsy. tl went to bed at night as usual but I 'hoard tho clock strike ovory 'timo till morning, and my mind was as activo and full of thought as if I had 'been up and at work all night. There was not a momont of that forgotfulneee or unconsciousness peculiar to sleep. Tot strango as it may soom, I really voetod and kept fresh and strong. Sly oyes wero not blood-shot. 1 did not lose iflesh, and nobody but my wife and othor intimate acquaintances would have known, if I had not told them, that I did not sleep as long and sound as any of them I feel somo peculiar sensations when I havo been without sleep for weeks or months. For instance, men seem ten times furthor off, when I soo thorn from a littlo distance than thoy really aro. Tho funny part of it is.ithat a man looks as tall as a small liberty pole when I seo him just far -enough off. Thon thoro is another peculiar senso- tlon connected with my system. on-such occasions. When I was walking on tao house-tops last summer, after any long sleeplessness, I folt constantly as a man does when he is raised rapidly from tho ground as if I were ascending rapidly in a balloon or olovator, or, perhaps, as a man might fool if ho could fly.

I oan awaken a person in my houso at any hour of tho night that ho may deslro to catoh a train, or loavo his bod for any other ob joct. If I wero asleep nights I could not havo dono-suoh things as those, but I havo demonstrated my wakefulness bo irepeatouly "that nobody who know mo, or, knows anything ot mo, doubts it in ,V lnnaf " A young laly entered a well-known ocsinoss house, with a rather shabby looking book in her hand.

Women have played an important part in Russian history, says tho Phila delphia Record, from Olgo, a wise and ablo ruler of tho embryo empire in tho mlddlo of the tenth century, to Catha rlno II., whoso long and brilliant rolgn of thirty-four yoars, ending In 1790, ex hibits her as tho most successful sover eign of Russia stnoo Peter tho Great It was Sophia, a ntoco of Constantino, tho last Byzantlno Emperor, and wifo of Ivan III., who, toward tho close of the fifteenth century, caused her impe rial spouso to introduce tho arts of civil isation into tho almost barbarous roalm. Tho good Queen Anastnsla, first of tho royal Romanoffs, is rotated to have ox- erclsod tho most beneficent influonco over hor husband, Ivan tho Terrible Tho Grand Duchess Sophia, hall sister of Peter tho Great, was a singularly ablo and ambitious woman, and her ad ministration ea Princess Regent, though brlof, marked a notablo epoch in tho an nals of her country. Catharine I. and nftorwards Anna, in tho first half of tho eighteenth century, wero weak enough to allow themselves to bo controlled, not u nil to many malo rulers, by persons of tho opposlto sex, and thoy may bo regardod rathor as administrative fig- uro.hends than otherwise Ellaboth, who reigned fiom 1740 to 1762, was an empress in fact as well as in namo. Sho dethroned her immediato predeces sor after ho had been tho nominal head of tho nation for about aycar. During horToIgn tho Gorman party was de prived of the unduo influence it had ac quired only to nbuso it; tho senate was restored to tho power assigned to it by Petor tho Groat, her father, and her ca rocr was altogothor worthy of hor illus trlous origin. Her successor, Peter III., was, by a noteworthy repetition of 'history, dothroncd by his gifted and en ergetic consort, who, as Catharine II., entered upon a reign whoso splendor of nchiovomonts and sagacity of govorn mental methods comparo favorably with' tho caroor of anv monarch tho world has ovor seen. Literary Faolllty. Dr. Johnson's "Rassolas" was written in a week to defray tho cxponscs of his mother's funeral. Sir Waltor'Scott's rapidity is ono of the marvels of litera ture; ho wrote literally as fast as tho pen could move, and when he dictated, his amanuensis could scarcely 'keep paco with him. Tho original 'manu scripts of the Wavorly novelsimay still bo seen; they are frequently formany pages undeformed by a singlo blot or erasure.

It is interesting to know, as wo know it on the best author ity, that Shakespearo himself wielded a very facile pen.

Young Man Don't bo Helped. r. l'rlmo has vory little sympathy iwasto upon young men who get thflr -education by forced loans from rolasvos.
