The compromise bill to provido for

Mr White, in the product of some of

persons to examine all elaims and to

the niost important one, declares that iu
?11 cases taxe? shall be rcai-idol to tho
parties who actually nujtuined the bur
den of the tax, as follows: First, the
producer or owner Jo such cases as he
may prove the payment of tho tax; and
secondly, to the merchants or factors
who in all cases whore they have paid
aujh taxes as agents in their own name
rony collect the same lor tho benefit of
the principal, and hold it subject to
reasonable settlement of their respec

cases the producer or priucipal may come
into court at any time befora tho hear

objections to the money being paid over
to the agent or factor. The court is

station about six miles below Columbia.)
It is supposed he went to sleep and fell
off; for, shortly after the cars started,
terrible shrieks were heard, and the
train being stopped, the unfortunate
man was found to have been badly
crushed about the body and one of his
legs nearly sovered. Ue was conveyed
to Hopkio's Turnout, where he claimed
to reside. It is hardly possible that ho

How Long to Slkkp.?The fact is
that as life hecomos concentrated, and
its pursuits more eager, short sleop and
early rising become impossible. We
take more sleep than our ancestors, and
wa take more because we want more.
8ix hours sleep will do very well for a
mason or brieklayer, or any other man
who has no exhaustion but that produced
by manual labor ; the sooner ho takes it
after his labor is over the better. But
for the man whose labor is mental, the
stress of work is on his brain and
nervous system, and for him who is tired
in the evening with a day of mental ap
plication neither "early to bed" nor early
to riso" is wholesome. He kcops letting
down to the level of rep >so. The long er
the interval between the aotive use of
the brain and hia retirement to bed,.tho
j bolter bis chance for sleep and refresh
ment. To him an hour after midnight
iB probably as pood as two hours bofore
it, aud evon then his sloop will not so
completely and quiokly rostora him as
it will his noighbor ? who is physically
tired. Ho must not only go to bed later,
but lie longer. His best sleep pr bably
lies in the early morning hours, when
all the nervous exo'tcmont has passed
away, and he is in absolute rest.

New Code of Health.
, 1.?Winter and summer, spring and
autumn, always take your breakfast in
bbd.
2. In eating and drinking, deny
yourself nothing which you iancy. In
clination is the only safe rule in these
oases.
3. A light supper h your best safe
guard against sleeplessness, indigestion,
dreams of unpaid bills and poor relations,
and other nocturnal disturbances. A
lobster, or a buttered crab, or some
pi? kled salmon, or a nice veal cutlet, or,
if there is nothing olso at hand, a hearty
meal of toasted cheese, will have a
wonderful effect upon you, and oausc
you to feel in the morning cjuite another
man.
4. Thick soles to boots and shoes
would bo a laughablo mistake if they
did not lead to such deplorable conse
quenccs. They make the wearer uu
comfortable, and cause the feel to pre
sent ( n umighlly appearance. Besides,
the noise they produce inflicts positive
harm on persons of scuiiiive ujrves.
5 Never get up later than twelve.
Never go to bed after three. Nino
hours'. sleep is enough for any one.
j Perhaps a simplor rule is never to get
up or to go to bed until you loci dis
posed.
6 If you have tbe chance ofjidiligi
do not waste tims and, tissue, aud boot
and shoe^JuaUlST,"'by walkiug. Those
J>ld -firRifmned notions which Borne pcoplo
still entertain about the necessity of
exercise only show how long a suporsti
tion will linger on.
7. It is only necessary to think of
tho incredible number uf young and del
icate females who go out to dinners,
dances aud other evening entertain
men's, et the most inclement pcrio Is of
the year, lightly and airily clad, to be j
convince 1 that it is sheer nonsense to
take precautions ugain.-t dump and the j
night air.
8. If business, or some other disigroj- j

9. Always aleep after dinner, and, if
you have t he opportunity, after 1 mehe.in |
^which should be hot and heavy) as i

10. If you must pay uttuution to
your diet, rehtrict yournelf to porL, veal,

The walls, tho hangings and thti scats
arc all in pale blue satin, (she is fair,)
edged sparingly with volvot of the same
shade, and embroidered daintly with
moss rose bu^sswathed is still paler yel

exact, gives no idoa of tho effect produc
ed by that wondrous tissue, of tho in
credible effect of delicacy and thorough
feminine elegance which it sheds
around. The room is filled with vague
floating grace; its very detail is com
bined to uid and sustain tho almost fairy
aspect it presents. Tho bed is shroud
ed thickly wadded satin curtainu, in
side of which haug othors made of mus
lin bo vaporously filmy that its folds
seem almost mist, the eoverlet, which
hide ptho lace trimmed sheets and pillows
is in blue satin, lined with eider down
and covered with the same veil of float
ing white, hanging down in a deep
flounce over tho woodwork of the bed
The toilet table is tho ;ame?a nestling
maze of transparency and lace, with
blue beneath and kntts andstroamers of
mingled satin and velvet round. On
th e chimney piece stands a clock and
candlesticks of Sevres china. The piano
is in pale boit de rose (not rosewood,
which is a very different substance,) in
luid with ptates of painted Serves to
match. At night light comes from
above, whore hangs a lamp of Sevres
again. In our days, with our active
idoas an actual wants, such rooms as
these are typical. They represent the
highest form of realization of modern
tasto without its faults, or rather with
as little of them as is consistent with
the expenditure of ho much money and
so much thought. In then* rare vases
vanity seeks for another satisfaction
than that of glare; but vanity is at the
bottom all the same. The only differ
ence is that it in accompanied by a true
fense of srt.

neck an extraordinary wager : fie
bnoked himself to dare his trotter in a
light carriago to Lyons before the Com to
Philippe de Novule would reaoh the
plao* on hiH veloeip 'do. The distance
was 356 kilometres, or 222J miles
which was run in 60] hours, and wub
wou by n neck by the Due de Foltre,
who drove into the court yard of tho
Grand Hotel at Lyons just two minutes
before the Comte rattled in on his velo
cipode. The first days journey was 80
kilometres, or 50 miles; the second was
104, (65 miles ami the la?t day both
competitors ran 172 miles. Neither the
horse uor the niau s?cmed much beat by

A Lively Oroanibt.? At a recent
fa* hionable wedding in Boston, it was
announced that the cor cm o iy * would
take palec in the church at half-past
Bevcn o'clock in the evening. A well
known musical gentleman w.is requested
to preside at the organ, and, at the timo
appointed, opened the service, with the
"Wedding March." The church was
filled with a large audience, hut tho
wedding party was late. Tho organist
played the ' Wedding March" through
twice, u? a prelude. By tho time the
church bull had tolled nut ui;-ht utrokes,
he had. gone through the limited reper

occasion, had executed a number ot
sacred airs in a style so rapid and novel
that lew, if any, iu the uudience recog

variations of an exceedingly original

thoroughly vexed at the delay, began
and played a lew measures of tho air,

closed his introduction with the
"Rogue's March," to the movement of

prevailing, Mr. .Junten F. Sydenstricker
and Miss M. A. Wluteman wero, by
special request, united in tho bonds ef

Va., by the pastor, Rev. Mr. Highley.
Tho party hud ridden twelve miles to
meet the offioiuting clergyman at the

Why Chuhb Mourned.
When Chubb's wife died wo-called iu
to mourn with him, ami if possible to
console bitn in bis sflliction. Tho old
mm out in the rocking chair, with his
oych closed, chowiog a toothpick and
rocking to and fro as he apparently
mused over the years that had sped so
happily i.i company with h? late part- j
tier. Wc gently approached tho sub
ject of Mrs. Chubb's departure. We
assured him that we sympathized with
him in his deep affliction, and the more
sincerely because we well knew tho
eeiimable qualities of his wile and were
familiar wit), the virtues with which she
adorned her home. "She was, indeed,"
we said, "an excellent woman ; a re
tnarkable woman ; a woman of sterling
qualities nod unaffected piety." Chubb
Mopped rocking and looked at us
; mournfully. "Unaffected pioty'(" be
i exclaimed ; "unaffected piety 7 That's
just what's the matter. I tell you,
Adcler," he said, bringing his hands
down emphatically on the arm of the
I chair, "the'way that there woman eould
I roast a sugar-cured hum would bring
J tears to the eyes of a graveu image."
