he was no religious- bigot, no crazy
fanatic, no wild radical. lie was a statesman,
he looked to practical ends bv practical

impracticable hh a fact, that if the condition
of' the slave Virginia was evil it whs
an itierftdicnl evil, and was to be left like
the other institutions of society,^ to the

elusion, and I put it t:? you, there wan no

GOOD HTJF.SIHO.
nv FI.OUKNrK NIGllTIN'G Al.te.
Never to allow a patient to bo waked, inteniioually,
or accidentally, is a sine qua
von of all good nursing. If lie is roused
out of his first sleep, ho is almost certain to
have no more sleep. It 13 a curious hut
j quite intelligible fact, that if a patient is
| walred after a few hours, instead of a few
J minutes* sleep, lie in much more likely to
I sleep again. !3eenu*o pain, like irritability
J of the brain, perpetuates and intensifies itj
self. ]f you have gained a respite of either
! in sleep, yon have gained more than the

renec arid cif the same intensity will hi
diminished; whercm both will l>e terribly
increased bv want of slcp. Tbis is the
rea<on why sleep is so all important. Thi?
is the reason why a patient waked in the
early part of his sleep loses, not only hi?
sleep, but his power to sleep. A healthy
person, who allows himself to sleep during
I the day, will lose his slonp at night. Hut

les*ness (resulting in cruelly, quite uninten

hoi.I a long conversation just in the room
j or pas-sage adjoining to the room of the'pn
| tiont, who is either every moment expecting
I them to come in, or who has just seen their
land knows they are talking about him. 1

pi-led conversation in the prune room, ther
lit h :?l?-??! tit ? ! y cruel; for it is impossibh
tii.it tli?* j?:?*i*?nl*A attention should not b<
involuntarily M rained to lu-nr. Walking
on lip-toe, doing anythingia the room ven
slow ly, are injurious for exactly the sami
reasons. A firm light quick step, a stendi
quick liancl, aro the rfcsiderafii ; not tlx
-low, lingering, s-hufllirig foot, the tiir.u
tuii'Crlaiii touch. Slowness is not gentle
ness, though it is often mistaken for such
quickness, lightness, anil gentleness, are quili
compatible. Agnin, if friends and doctor
j did l?ut watch, as nurses can and shoult
watch, tlie features sharpening, the eye
growing almost wild, of fever patients win
are listening for the entrance from the cor
ridor of the persons whoso voices they an
hearing, these would never run the risk ngaii
of creating such expectation, or irritatioi
of mind. Such unnecessary nois has un
doubted ly induced or aggravated deliriun
in mnny cases. I have known such?in <>m
case death ensued. Ft is hut fair to say tha
this death was attributed to fright. It wa'
the result of n long whispered oonversalioi
within si^ht of the patient, ahout an im
I pending operation ; but any one w ho ha
known the more t hat) stoicism, the cheerfu
j coolness, with which the certainty of ai
j operation will bo accepted by any patent
capable of bearing an operation at all, if i
is properly communicated to him, will la-si
tale jo believe that it was mere fear wbiel
produced, as was averred, the fatal resn!
in this instance. It was rather the uncei
tainty, tho strained expectation as to whai
was to he decided upon. , ,
I need hardly say that the other couimoi
cause, namely, for a doctor or friend to leav<
