oddest chereeter. These they act with such truth to

then have boon consummate actors. A young man
about RD year; old, seemed to be most thoroughly
under the mesmeriser's control; Ise fixed his eyes on

startled; but by and by, as the absurdity of their
position is manifest to them, they generally smile a
rather foolish smile. Ono of the patients was caused
to imagine himself a horse, and when the mesmeriser
pointed out to him the "beautiful grams." the patient
went down on all fours, sod began to bite away, as he
