Tilden is a grand old man. No one ofNew York's states men has ever comanded the respect at home and in the Union as he iu the opinion of many. Whether he be an actual candidate for the presidential nomination or not, everything concerning him is eager ly, longingly sought by his country men. There has been much talk of late about -the broken; down condition of Mr. Tildeii's health. In view of the interview published in the New York "Times" of yesterday the fol lowing from" todays Xew York "World" is interesting. The editor of the.Worll accident ally enjoyed the pleasure -of Mr. Tildeii's company while the latter came iu yesterday from Yonkers. We are prepared to di.sMise alike of the sensational stories of Mr. Tildeii's weakness and of the equally sensational stories of h'is exceptional vigor. In the first place Mr. Tildeii must 1 an early riser, as he lioard ed the train that leaves Tarrytown a few iniiiiite.s- alter eight. In the next place, Mr. Til.len's walk is perfectly easy and his figure more erect than that of most people of his age. . He walked down Hie aisle of one of the ordinary cars quietly and naturally. With his plain straw hat, his clfan-shaven face, he at. traded ni more attention than any other of the thousand business men who come into New York on the morning t rain of the Hudson riv er road. As to his health, we are not pre pared to give-a physician's diag nosis nor a physician's certificate. But if clearness of complexion aud brightness of the ey e are safe' indi cations. Mr. Tilden is certainly as healthy a liian as he Avas seven years ago. His complexion i.s. cer tainly fresher aujl healthier and his look has no indication of weak ness about, it. The partial paralysis or ',a!sy, or nervous allci'tion. or whatever it is of his right arm and hand, contin uesamd he is probahly unable to make any efficient use of that arm. But as for his going to sleep or slipping lrom Ins seat or necUjngi assistauce, it is absurd- The "Southern ( -ongressmairs" descrip tion is so evidently borrowed from Dickens description of Grandfath er Small weed as not to need ..no tice, i Mr. Tildeii's voice was not chang ed noticeably. It. is hardly strong enough to be liea: il aenvjj Hie room amid the rattle of Jriiilroad train speeding by the cuts and hill sides, but his , voice was never strong. When a man habitually talks in a low voice as Mr. Tilden has done always if is a sin that his low tone of vocal muscles and organs sire not strong. A low voice is a ty pe of character, just as a loud voice is a ty pe of another kind of character. At no period-of his life could Mr.. 1 Udell have been a loud voiced speaker like one of Shakes peare's "robustious, periwig, pated fellows," but his enunoiation is not affected in any way by the noise of the train, Ins remarks ifachedhis hearers. ' He talked freely and fluently; whatever impairment his body may have snlleieil his mind is as clear as ever. His memory is remarkably-retentive and accurate, extending to trifling incidents that one would hardly expect, him to re call. He talked about politics, aboiitthe electoral ::oniuiission, the dangers of interviewing and other natural topics of a half horn s ride There is no doubt that he still maintains the same keen interest in and intelligent attention to poli tics and to business. A Plea for the Wife. "To become a husband, is as seri. ous a matter to a man," writes Dr James O. Jackson, 'ji it is for n woman to Itecome a wife Mar riage is no child's play; it brings added care, trial, jnsrplexity, vexa tion, and it requires a.great deal of the haiipiness w hich legitimately springs out of it to make the bal ance heavily in its favor. Very fewpeople live happily in marriage, and yet this is not liecause uuhai -piness is germane' to the relatioii, but iKH-ause those who enter it do not know, first, how to get married, and second, how to live happily.

SLEEP.' FOR YOUXG 31 EX. One of the most important things to know about any man upon whom you are going to place any dependence is how he sleeps .Sleeplessness may sometimes le in voluntary. There may- have been some shock to the man's nerves which has made him insomuolent; but sleeplessness is more frequent ly voluntary. Men choose to push their studies or their work into those hours when they should lie asleep.' It does not mutter for what cause any nran may do this; the mere fact of not sleeping spoils his case. He mar spend his nights ni the theatre, in the study, or in the "protracted meeting." It will j make no difference; the result to the oody will Ite the same. The sleep was not had, and for that the man iniist pay . One man may do with little less sleep than another; but as a general rule, if you want a clerk, lieutenant, a lawyer, a physician legislator, a judge, a president,' or a pastor, do not trust. your interest to any man that docs not, take on an average eight good solid, hours of sleep out of every twenty-four. Whatever may lie his reason for it if he does not give himself that, he w ill snap sometimes just when you want him to be strong. The intellectual and in oral con. mictions of sleeping have, I think not been sufficiently appreciated. Men and boys have been pnysed for "burning the midnight oil." Now this "midnight oil" is a delu- sion and a snare. The student who is fast asleep at eleven o'clock every night aud wide awake at sev en o'clock every morning is going to surpass another studeui, of the same intellectual ability, who goes to bed after twelve o'clock and rise before five. In sleep, the plate on which the picture is to be taken is to be taken is receiving ts chemi cal preparation, and it is plaiu that which is the best prepared will take the best picture. Men who are the fastest asleep w hen they are asleep arethewid- est awake when they are. awake Grat workers most be great rest i ers. ".'. Every man who has clerks in his employ ought to know what their sleeping hours are. The young man who is up till two, three and four o'clock in the morning, and - must put, in his appearance at the bank or store at nine or ten o'clock and work all day, cannot rejieat this process many days without a cer tain shakiness coming . into his sysrem, which he will endear or t o steady- some delusivt stimulus. It, is in this way that many a young man begins his course to ruin. He must. not necessarily have lieen in bad company. He has lost, his sleep; and losing sleep is losing strength and grace. Here is the outline of the history of a suicide within my own knowledge: A y oung man, a stranger in New York, in a good situation, ina large boarding house, has pleasant young companions, spends his evenings out; goes to midnight par. ties, from eleven to seven: his nerves become disturbed, then a me ,lrlllka ilUie mistake in bus iness another drink reproof from employer more drink more mistakes loss of situation no help from frivolous companions money all gone then credit all gone then turned put of the boarding-house wandering in the street- inortincation shoots himself. j Now, It does not always come to this; but all people w ho are losing j sleep are somewhere along this I line, they are somewhere in the ; rapids. j We must begin a reform in this department. People who "ca!l and profess themselves Christians" must refuse to out in the evening i to aI1.y amnsement.

In this age of rapid transit and accumulated work we must more and more pro vide for the necessity of sleep. Instead of asking our acquaint ances,, when we meet the usual ques tion of '-How do you do!'' we might teach a good lesson by that other question, "How do tou sleep!" An Ineihanstible Fisn Supply. In the opening lecture licfore the Fisheries Conference, in London, Prof. Huxley presented facts sub stantiating his statement, that in fishing districts aii acre ot sea was 'more -profuse in -food: production than an acre of land. He said that he had no doubt that there were some fisheries which - were inex. liaiist ilile. Instancing the salmon rivers, lie said it was quite clear that .those who would protect, the fish must address themselves to man, who was reachable by force of law, and that it not. only might be possible, but it was actually practicable to so regulate the action ofmauwith regard to a salmon river that no such process of extir pation should take place, lint if we turn to the great sea fisheries, such as cod and herring fisheries, the case was entirely altered. He be lieved that the cod, herring, pil. chard, mackerel, and similar fish. eries were inexhaustible, and were entirely beyond the control of man either to diminish the number of fish or to increase them by cultiva. tion. But there were sea fisheries capable of lieing cultivated and controlled, in .part at least, byl man. John Raskin on Courtship.

It w as glorious night iu July. They had long been acknowledged and devoted lovers, and as they stood breathing words of unuttera ble ami undying devotion w ith the sottrays of the moon glittering through the tall tree tops they looked the picture of confiding hive. Her head with its wealth of golden hair, leaning trustfully and loving ly upon his manly shoulders, there seemed to lie an especial fitness in their mutual love. He, cast in Na ture's manliest mould, graceful in every inurement,' with a physique such as few. could- boast, seemed a picture of protecting care while she, slight, graceful ami sy Iph like, w as the embodiment' of womanly de- rotion. At their feet rippled'- a hcuuti tul streamlet, known to the deni zens, -of the aristocratic suburb through w hich it Hows as "College- branch.'' At the trunk of a giant oak they kneeled ami together they dreamed .iu that sweet com munion of which only lovers know? all unmindful of the Higlit of time, until the moon had sunk far out of sight. She had lingered with de light upon the tende syllables which had rolled a fountain of un utterable joy from the .lips of her darling, when, all at. once, she lo gau to manifest feelings of disquie tude. '. "What is the matter, my darling!'' inquired her lover, as he noticed with alarm her 'continued uneasi ness of manner.-', "It is nothing of consequence, my love," she ". replied, but to his ever watchful ey es her actions be lied her w ords," and he said: "There is certainly something the matter, and I fear that I have wouuded the feelings of my pre cious dore." "Xo,uo,l' she replied, while her tear-diinined eyes looked their .re proach to think he should suspect himself capable of inflicting pain upon her sensitive nature. "You are all the world to me, and the rich wealth of my heart's purest lore is but a feeble expression yf my sense of the ijlebt: I owe' -yoh. But, for, to-night you must leave me.

At a ceTtain point they "met the elder brother disguised as a minister. The marriage ceremony was per formed and the young couple start ed to settle down in the moutains. Four weeks afterwards the.lady was informed that -she had been de ceived and she returnel home and told her story. The Claytons were arrested and tried in Itic'jie coun ty last week aud found guilty.

THE PRESIDENT OPENS THE LOPISVILLE EXPOSITION. G It EA T EX I'll I 'S TA S M. ;. Louisville, ' Aug. 1. President Arthur opened the Southern Ex-v losition this -afternoon at 12:.5,' o clock, iu the presence of 12,00( peyple. His Nirlors at the Gait House were thronged with prominent Kentuckians this fore noon. Among them were the ex.Confederate Generals S. B. Buck uer and William Prestou. The President was luxuriously -quartered in - apartments siKM-ialir fitted up for his use. The IhhI on w hich he slept was of carved black walnut and cost ?2,iKM. The IhmIiwiu furniture alone cost ,000, and it was completed, alntnt two weeks ago. Secretary Lincoln, who finds himself among many of his fathers ' lioyhood acquaintances, has Khmi cordially received, and was called upon by quite as many ioople as the President. At 11 o'clock the President, Sec retaries Folger and Lincoln, Gen. Gresham, .Commissioner Erans', Gen. Sheridan, Senators Bayard and Beck, Gov. Blackburn, and Coiigrossiiieii Morey ami lowiy of Ohio entered carriages iu freut of the hotel to start for the Kxjo sition. As the President 'left the hotel on the aim of the "Mayor the dense crowds in tiie streets sent up' jmi enthusiastic cheer. Main streeot was impassable with peo ple, and very house on the line of march was gay w ith colors. A mil itary escort of five companies pre ceded the Presidential paVly, and a police guard follow ed. The crowd on Main street, conqHised of men at the start, w as ho enthu siastic that President Arthur stood in his carriage and liowed- his iu knowlcdgelncnts. This enthusiasm soon diet! out, and the march was quiet and uneventful. There is con siderable eouuneut on the lack of popular enthusiasm for the distin guished visitor. His visit is coin"- pared with that of Grant, which was an overwhelming popular ova. tion. On arriving at the Exposition President Arthur was conducted to'.;. the stand, embowered iii shrubs and flow6rs. It was placed at the intersection of the naves,crossing the almost square parallelogram of the bnilding,aiid faced tho grand organ, iu front of which were seat ed 500 choristers and the Seventh Regt. Band of New York. When the President appeared at the back of the stand there was .wild enthusi asm. Aliout 200 distinguished ersons aiM'-ompanied him. The on ly ladies were Mrs. P. II. Sheridan and the wife of Col. M. Sheridan. After a prayer by the Rev. E. T. Perkins, of St. Paul, ttosi lion. Charles!). Jacobs, "Mayor of the city, addressed the President, briefly welcoming him to the State Exposition. In conclusion he said: '' The Exposition is for the rc geueration of the South, to give un to her beauty for nshes. the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness, and all on this day of rejoicing are grateful to you, Mr, for your presence, which give as surance that? you are in full sympa thy with its purjiose. Mr, Presi dent, we of Kentucky are your JK-Ople, as are those tf Massachu setts, New York' or Ohio. What-, ever honors are heaped upon you illustrate us as American.' citizens, rvhatever'grief touches you sears our hearts as well. ' The sejitiment wan cheered' and the applanse repeated when the im pulsive Mayor shook the President by the hand. Gov, Blackburn then introduced President Arthur, who. altera few- moments' hesitation, said: Fellow CitIZKNs: I count my self fort urate in that I am upon the borden! of this beautiful city of the South on a day w hich must he henceforth famous in its history; for a great undertaking, an under takingof national interest and im IKirtance, enter here and now upon its career. I congratulate the pro- fmoterB aud managers of this -,x-k sition that even at ihis very thresh old of its existence it gives abund ant pledges ol success. The zeal and enthusiasm which they have displayed in their latiorw of preparation, aud the frequent" tidings of encouragement am! cheer by which those labors have been lightened and made glad, the uplen did triumphs of American geniui, activity and skill which are arrang ed within these walls, the jiresence of the eager multitude who throng these hospitable streets, all are tok ens that the ent-rpr'e Iag-' : nratexl will be crowned with bril liant, far reaching and enduring rv" suits. After delivering his speech, the -President started the Exposition machinery. -
