By drawing a line from tbs western end of the Aleutian Maoris to the eastern end of Maine, it will be found that the Golden Gate on the Pacific is in abont the middle of it. The New York Giaphic tells abont a fine dinner for eighteen persons, at which “the center ot the table was filled by a large, low glass receptacle home eight feet long, which was im beded in moss and ferns, and in which swam gold fish and terrapin, in the middle rose a fountain whose spray reached almost to the chandelier. At each lady’s plate was a uniqnely bean titnl bequet— a palm fern forming the background for a splendid bunch ot La France roses. Each place was designated as belonging to a guest by an ivory taolet, on which the name was embossed in silver. The table was ornamented with many rare sreas urea of silver and china. Eiob salt cellar was a silver awan, and tu each was an ‘apostle apron,’ Mrs being the fortunate possessor of a set to those beautiful examples of the ■■kid ot silversmiths of the middle ages.

Leibnitz tried the task of formulating such a lau guage in the latter part of the seven teenth century, but gave it up in de spair. Bishop Wilkins, Abbe Sicard, Bachmeier and MezZofanti have at in tervals continued to rekindle the world in interest in the scheme. Leibnitz, Bachmeier, and Mezzofan’i all hailed from Germany, and from the same philological nation comes the latest apo'tb, the inventor of Tolapnk. v olapuk (pronoonced folapiek) is an attempt to invent an international language drawn in part from all civil ized tongues. Its grammar is almost nothing, consisting in a few simple rales which have no exceptions or ir regularities and which, when printed, makes a small four page leaflet. The vocabulary embraces now only a few thousand words, those of most com mon use, but is steadily growing, In terest in this country hae hardly been awakened as yet, but in Italy, there are already seven Yolapuk societies and others in Spain, Franee, Germany, Austria and lower Russia, numbering 120 in all. Pamphlet has followed pamplet, lecture has succeeded lecture, and nine periodicals are published in Xolapnk exclusively. The inventor is a humble Catholic priest, Johann M. Schleyer, living at Constance, Ger many, on a pension 250 a year, wboj has taken advantage of his retirement to study more or less thoroughly sixty languages and dialects.—['V'oioe. A Twelve Xear Nap. A Winona (Minn ) despatch to an exohaßgs says: Hetman Harms of Utios, near this place, who has attract* ed considerable attention throughout the country by reason of his extended sleep, being termed the Minnesota Marvel,” has at last awakened from his somnolent state which has extend* ed over a period of nearly twelve years. He came from Hanover, Germany, and with bis family settled in St. Charles, Minn., in 1869. He had previously been troubled with fits of somnolency, but in the snmmer of 1875 the strange disease took a firm hold npon him, and he lost consciousness and remain ed in that state, awakening for two or three miuutes at intervals and partak ing of the lightest kind of nourisb* rnent and theu falling to Bleep again. In December, 1882, he awoke to fall consciousness, and after recuperating his lost energies wont to work as if nothing had happened. All went well with him until August, 1883, when he was bu id nly taken sleepy wh.le carrytug a cup of tea to his wife, who was sick in bed. H** fell to the floor unconscious, and remained ever since in a deep slumber, awakening only at brief intervals as before, between the boars ot 7 and 11 a. in., uutil his final awakening this week. When first attacked by ih's strange disease Hanns was about thirty eight years old and in apparent perfect Ueaitb, weighing 180 pounds. But he is now bu In tie more tuan a skele ton. weighing scircely sixty pounds, and whbn he first awoke his hair and beard weie long and straggling. A canons lecture of his illness wts that neither snouts nor blows awakened him, and strong electric batteries were up plied, but with no avail, the only effect being to cause a slight contraction of the mnssles. His case baffled the skill of physicians, who uuited in the opinion that the excessive nse of qui nine undoubtedly tended to aggregate the complaint. A correspondent visited him Feb 15 and found him sitting in a chair reading German newspapers. He appeared rational. He eutertained san guine hopes that he would be able to be about again by warm weather. Mr and Mrs. Harms have five children, the eldest ot whom, a boy about nine teen, has furnished almost the sole support of the family by his daily la bor, the remaining four children Do ing quite small. The family have lived in utica about a year and a half, daring which time Haims has been visited by hundreds of people, who came from all parts of the country. Strong hopes are now eutertained of his ultimate complete recovery. Daring the passage of a merchant vessel from Plymouth, Bngland, to Groeningen, Zealand, recently, a pig eon fell exhausted on the bridge of the vessel. The captain carefully fed and tended the bird and it became quite at home. When the captain landed on reaching the port the b>rd flew aear him wherever he went, and even entered a coffee house with him. Legal Notice*. Georgia, jTo all whom U Banks County, ( may concern: 0.
