Honee, Phyâ€" "0"]‘: siologists, after a patieut and close iuquiry,‘ } have arrived at the important and practical blue | conclusion that the power of the entire man, ‘ #0+ lus vitality, is as much expended by two | itleâ€" | hours of deep mental effort as by a whole: and | day of ordinary bodily fabor; this fact few | seems to be founded on observed physiologâ€" l les, | ieal laws; henee, the man who spends four ling ' hours in twentyâ€"four in earnest mental ave laber, goes to the utmost allowable limit and | for a day‘s work, and all the time that re. rest l mains, after deducting ten hours for eating sleeping and dressing, should be conscienâ€" OW, | tiously expended in museular exercises, rall ' which should, by preference, be those which you / are agreeable, useful, and profitable ; for ' they not only promote the Lealthful condiâ€" &6, | tion of the body, but give rest to the brain, rok | which, by that rest recuperates its power, | Many can remen.ber, when turning back \re } to their schoolâ€"days, that they have gone |. ! to bed feeling that tuey did not know their lessons, yet on rising in the morning, the } n‘t ’ mind would run over them with a gratifyâ€"|.

Sleep is necessary to reoruit the vigour both of body and mind.â€"Sleep has Leen defined as a gemeral repose, durâ€" iug which almost all the bodily orgaus ure at rest. Doubtless, all who have considerâ€" ed the subject are fainiliar with the recogâ€" mnized principle that no living thing is capâ€" able of coutinuous or unintgrmitted activity; (c) The mind finds rest by a change in the subject of study.â€"Fatigne of mind is the outcome of fixed attentionâ€"tie concenâ€" tration and stretch of thought; for, if there is little oy no aiteution, there can be little or no fatigue. Again, weariness of mind has one of its causes in attention bcing diâ€" reeted to one and the same subject so long that it lhecomes to the mind & sort of monâ€" otony. Now, inthe change of ons thing for another, there is au interruption in conâ€" centration and stretel; of thought, which gives relief to the mind; and there is also variety which gives pleasure to the mind; there are, too, new subjects of thought and new turns of thought, which captivate the mind with new interest, lenoe, in the inâ€" terchange of subjecte therp is rost to the mind,and yet there is continued applisation to study. (b) The mind finds rest in the due exerâ€" eise of the body.â€"The due exercise of the body is an efficient means of â€" unburdenâ€" ing and resting the mind from the fatigne of hard studyâ€"a walk, foouball, cricket,and similar games, all tend to relieve the mind by unbending it from the strain of elose ap. plication to study and to reâ€"mmvigorate the mind by imparting unto it fresh power for the prosceution of study. There are great difforences among men as to their need of rest and sleep. Some men can do with fur less rest and sleep than others; but all men require both, pro portionate to their individual constitutions, aud the works in which they are engaged. Our sulject is thus comparative both in it self and in its collateral issues. Lt us so treat it, especiallly in regard to the exhausâ€" tive labor of study. The house was only a 10515 room, and how those Liue eyes did magnify it. At first the mother lookedâ€"well, it passes my power to tell exactly how she did look as she cauglit the boy in her arms and hugged and kissed him, while the tears streamed down her cheeks, but they were tears of thaunkfuluess. ‘I‘ve got it, mother !

Y Rest and Sleop. k4 «B +4 1 (a) Loss of brain power.â€"The activity of the mind causes waste of the brain, which can ouly be repaired by uleep, If we do not, therefore, tauke sufficient sleep to reâ€" pair the waste of the brain, there will neeâ€" essarily ensue a loss of brain power. The best possible thing to do when you feel too weak to carry anything through is to go to bed, and sleep fura week if you can. This is the ouly recuperation of brainâ€"f0rc@, because dnring sleep the brain is in a stute of rest, in a condition to reâ€" ceive appropriate particles of nutriment | 8. The evil consequences, both to body and mind form the neglect of taking suffiâ€" Icicnt rest and slcep.â€"Not a few work on | withont ndequate rest; but they, thereby )snnu break up their constitution, and renâ€" | der themselves comparatively unfit for subâ€" !'scqnem, labor. In like manner some err ! in regard to the quantity of sleep necsssary | to repair the waste of the brain, as others ‘do in regard to the quaiutity of rest necesâ€" sary to recruit the body with fresh vigor. We have often heard it remarked that four or five hours‘ sleep was all that was wanted and all that the human system reâ€" quired. ‘The habit of going without suffiâ€" cient sleep is very injurious. Thousands 10 ’doubt permanently injure their health in this way. â€" We live in a fast age, when everybody seems trying to invert the unls:'l of nature. â€" If folks will persist in turning! night into day, it is not to be wondered nt,l that few last out the allotted term of life. No matter what aman‘s occupationâ€"physâ€" ical or mental, or, like Othello‘s *gone‘ and living in idlenessâ€"the condition caunot ’ last, depend upon it, without a sufliciency of regular,pure and refreshing sleep. â€" John ‘ Hunter, the surgeon,died siddenly of spasâ€" modic affection of the heart, a disease that is greatly encouraged by want of sicep. In a recently published volume by a medical man, there is one great lesson that hara students zud literary men may learn, and that is, that Hunter probably killed himâ€" self by taking too little sleep. Four Lours‘ rest at night, and one after dinuer cannot be deemed sufficient to recruit the exbaustâ€" ed pewer of body and mind. Certainly not, and the consequence was that Hunter died earty. If men will insist on cheating Sieep, her "twinâ€"sister," Death,will ayenge the result. Among the many evils conse | quent upon insuflicient sleep, let us note: | (e) The best time for steep.â€"The hours, from ten to twelve in the evening and from twelve to four in the morning, are the best hours of the night for sound, refroshing sleep. Thisis vernfied by experience and sanctioned by reason as a law of nature. It is so set forth by Dr. Watt in his emâ€" ployment of the mind. Itis also eurrent among maukind in the form of a proverbâ€" one hour before twelve is worth two hours aftor it. whereas irregularity thercin is positively injurious to it. Henece,a fixed hour for goâ€" ing to bed and also for rising therefrom, contâ€"ibute much to the healthy au vigorous condition both of mind and body. (a) Preparation for sleep.â€"Due regard to proper diet, to bodily exercise and to study not too late or before going to bed, contribute much to sound, refreshing sleep. (b) Regular hours for sleep.â€"Regularity in sleep as in diet is highly advantageous to our intellectual and material system ; f fow ; and that the approach of sleep being | accompanied by a gradual diminuation of brain cireulation and by a sensible collapse liu the substance of the braum, as a consoâ€" | quence during sleep more than the normal Iquantity of vlood is distributed over the reâ€" | mainder of the body, more especially over i the surface und extremities. Any cause i tending to promote cirenlation in the brain, such as worry or anxicty, tends to prevent sleep ; and, inversly, any cause tending t> diminish the cireulation in the brain inâ€" duces sleep; too sudden a diminuation or ‘ entire cessation producing syneope or death. Among other influences calculated to inâ€"| duce sleep may be enumerated, warmth of atmospliere, darkuess and monotony of sound. (Many, doubtless, will have had an opportunity of noticing the sopori4c effect of monotony of souad in their churches.) | ' this principle forces itself upon our notice, inasmuch as every act of thought or veliâ€" tion is said to eutail a certain loss or conâ€" | sumption of brain substance, and the perâ€" iod during which the brain.rests for the reâ€" pair of this loss, constitutes that portion of our existence which we term sleep. Sleep is, however, more than a time of rest for the brain, inasmuch as itis the time during which the whole body recoups itself for such waste as has not been made good durâ€" ing the day by the processes of nutrition. In connection with this point, medical seience ‘ leaches that alocal increase of the cireulaâ€" | tion of the blood ; that a large portionâ€"| about oneâ€"fifthâ€"of the whole blood leayâ€"| ing the heart normally flows directly to the brain, and that an increase of activity in this organ â€"â€"as deep thoughtâ€"increases this gy, after a little while, becomes exlinusted and the muscle itself powerless and flaceid. That which is true of the whole body. and of its individual ergans. We aure told that even the heart, the action of which appears to be incessant, conforms to this universal rule, though its motions are more intermitâ€" tent but rhythmical, and that there is a distinet period of rest between each pulsaâ€" tion. But it seems that in the case of the braim more than fu that of any other organ, it being an inflexible law of nature that a period of work must be succeeded by a quicscent state, during which the organisin may repair the loss entailed in its tissues by previous exertion. A muscle is capable of a certain amount of activity,but its enerâ€" .) 12) 1881.

Even before the death of her first husband, Wynlbam Lewis, Disracli‘s colleague and intimate; she was a warin friend of the dead Earl, and aided him by her wise counsel, her fine tact and her accurate knowledge of society and the world. â€" At the age of 33 he married her P â€"â€"she had been widowed but a short ’ timeâ€"and was helped almost as much by hor influence as by her fortune, He bad been ,so disturbed by the failure of his maiden offort, that he was resolved to make good lh?s declaration (hat the time would come when he should be heard. Consequently : he prepared his specches for the House of i Commons with the greatest care, studying them closcly and reading them over atâ€" tentively for the last time before leaving: home for Parliament. His wife always acâ€" companied him, but after she had taken her seat in the carmiage by his side, she never spoke to him for fear of discomposing bis mind, absorbed in the matter in hand. One day as they were quitting their resiâ€" denee, the footman, in closing the door of the brougham, caught ber finger and «hut it in, causing excruciating pain,. But she drove to the JJouse in silent agony, and never reforred to the accident until her husâ€" bond had finished his speech and gone to her, as was his custom, in the gallery set apart for members‘ wives. As man and wife they were a model pair, being nlwnys‘ and wholly in love with one another. l ‘ On his return from his tour of antiquarâ€" | ian research in Southern Mexico, M. Charâ€" ‘ nay reported the discovery of a ruined Tolâ€" | tee city in Tobasco, near the Gulf coast, a | city which covers a wide area and must ’ have been in its day a place of considerable importance. ‘The lorg forgotten town is ‘ surrounded and dofted over with small hills and the builders had utlized these natural ’ elevitions by erecting tlteLreon a number of temples, pyramids, and usoes. had conâ€" nected their sites by bridges. The largest of the pyramids is 500 feet in height and a | second is fully $00. Nature had had more to do with these monuments than art, as the bulders had merely shaped the hillocks into pyramidal form and afterward faced them with stone, and steps were also cut in | the sides, paved with a mixture of cement | and pebbles. From a careful stady of the remains of this ancientecity M. Charnay is inclined to believe that it was founded Leâ€" twees 1150.118), and that it was in a perâ€" feet state of proservation at the time that Cortez invaded Mexico. ‘This opinion was strengthened by a conversation with two wellâ€"informed Spaniards whom the explorâ€" er encountered in San Juan Bautista, who declared that there were to be found in ancsiont Spanish records. statements to the effect that this city was not destroyed until after the town of Vera Cruz ' was laid uut. M. Charnay is satisfied from indicationa he observed that there are reâ€" mainsof at least two other Tolteccities furthâ€" er up in the adjacent mountains, but further investigation is postponed for the present, ' â€"Scientific American, (e) The two facts, just mentioned, conâ€" ditions the mind in the expansion of its faculties. The native effect of them on the mind must necessarily be a stinted and scraggy expansion of the frculties of the mind. (b) Decrease of brain work.â€"The brain is the organ, through which the mind works; but if there is a loss of brain power, there wil necessarily ensue a decrease of brain work,. from the blood, which takes the place of those which Lave been consumed in preâ€" vious labor, since the very act of thinking consumes or burns up solid particles, as every turnof the wheel or serew of the steamer is the result of consumption by fire of the fuel iu the furnace. The supply of consumed Lram substance can only be had from the nutritive particles in the blood, which were obtained from the food eaten previously ; and the brain is so constituted that it can best receive and appropriate to itself those nutritive particles during a state of rest, of quiet, and stillness of sleep. Mere stimalerts supply nothing in themâ€" selves. They goad the Lrain and force it to a greater consumption of its substauce, until that substance has been so exhausted that there is not power enough left to reâ€" cieve a supply, just as men are sometimes so near death by thirst and starvation that there is not power enough left to swallow anything, and all is over.
