who invented sleep. Professor Fulton tells us
that one of the greatest improvements intro
duced by tbe Greeks into the art cf sleeping
was the practice of undreseiag before going
to bed—a thing unheard of aati] bit upon by
their inventive genius. Ere* now there are
nations who never enjoy the laxary of taking
off their clothes at night. Tbe Romans went
t, bed to eat I heir dinners, and there are whole
races now who don’t know enough to sit down
like rational beings, but pqaat on their hams
instead. Tbe Romans went to bed early be
cause they hadn’t genius enough to invent a
candle. They trundled off to bed as tbe dark
ness began; and in AtbeQ, Egypt, Palestine,
Asia Minor, everywhere, the ancients went to
bed, like good boys, from seven to aine o'clock.
“Taroniaius,” says De Quincy. “ might be a
superb fellow, but we doubt whether he ever
saw a farthing rushlight.” This absence of
extensive artificial light among the ancients
was tbe ranee of all tbe magnificent shows
going on by daylight. Tbe exhibitions of the
amphitheatre and tbe circus all took place in
the daytime. Bat bow incomparably greater
would hare been the splendor by Ismp-light!
Even so simple a matter as breakfast was not
ioreoted for several centuries after the repub
lican era of Rome. It took as much time aud
research to arrive at that great discovery ss at
tbe Coperrican system. The morning meal of
tbe Romans was but a bite of bnircuil—tea
aad coffee bad aot been beard ot then. Pro
bably onr descendants, some centaries hence,
will laugh at our ignorance of many of the
ronrenienciee of life that will then be in rogue.

The New York World says: “That to the
already published works of J W. Forney—the
Jauieison letter, and letters from Europe, with
out width no (Radical) gentleman’s library is
complete, must lie added an interesting volume
of eighty-seven pages, edited by J. W. Forney,
Secretary of the Senate, who certifies to the
entire correctness of certain payments from the
contingent fund of the Senate for a single year,
amounting in the aggregate to the trifling sum
of $164,892 04.” The editor says:
This money was laid out for pen knives, for
which two thousand dollars were paid to a sin
gle dealer. It required seventeen hundred
K rs of scissors to merely cot at the Gordian
ot of reconstruction in the Senate. Another
lot of penknives cost $67 66; two and one
half doxen more were procured at the expense
of $98, and still more knives brought the
second bill for cutlery up to $487. Of the
whole pages of individual bills, the following

occurring item, “one gallon of alcbohol, $650,”
can best be explained in connection with such
other items as “Corkscrews, $24,” “ Lemon-
squeeaers, $2;” “ Four boxes of lemons. $40;”
“ 168 lbs. of sugar, $36 60.” These items for f houses in the city of London, and likewise

Developments. — It is quite probable that
Gen. Meade has asked to be relieved of the
command of the Third Military District. The
position was distRteful to him from the begin
ning, and it would appear from facts now com
ing to light that he has been made a “ cat's-
K w” by hit superior. It is announced that
considered it proper to postpone the Florida
Convention, but was not allowed to have hU
way; still warm, the communication he sent
upon the subject was withheld from tbe Presi
dent. We bapnen to know that a few days
after Gen. Meade assumed command, in Atlan
ta, he was visited by Gov. Patton, of Alabama,
and the impropriety of the election order for
that State, issued by bia predecessor, by which
an election for officers under the Constitution
framed by the Convention in that State was
directed to be held at the same that the people
were to rote upon its ratification or rejection,
was laid before him, Governor Patton urging a
change and Gen. Swayne urging an adherence
to the order. We bays the best reasons to
know that Gen. Meade laid these fact* before
Gen. Grunt, and approved Got. Pntton * posi
tion. Gen. Grant ordered him not to change
tbe order iaswxi by Pope. Perhaps these com
munication* wen also withheld from the Pres-
idtDt.

ciliaen and the latter a criminal.

calculated to advance the cause of Reconstruc
tion. We see but little here which will in
spire confidence in the intentions of Govern
ment to deal fairly with all of its citizens.—
Sueh facts as the above do not breathe that
spirit of reconciliation for the maintenance

should earnestly labor—Sae Repuh'.rean.
