CONVOCATION OF THE PROVINCE OF YORK.—The
Hon. and Very Rey. the Dean of York (acting as the Com-

Harcourt, accompanied by the deputy registrar and the se-
cretary to the Archbishop, after divine service in the
Cathedral at Ycrk on Friday morning last, proceeded to the
Chapter-house of that place, where Her Majesty's writ of
prorogation was read, after which the Dean prorogued the
meeting of the Convocation of the Province of York until
the 14th of January next.
A PETRIFIED WIFE.—A few days since a gen-
tleman residing in Rising Sun, Indiana, who had
married a second time, wished to remove the body of his
wife to a new cemetery. Preparations were made to that
effect, and labourers opened the grave in the usual manner ;
but when they reached the coffin they could not lift it, so
great was the weight. After obtaining considerable assist-
ance, however, the men succeeded in raising the coffin from
the tomb They then could not resist the temptation of
peering into the coffin, and learning the reason for its un-
usual weight, andlound, instead of the remains of a corpse,
a stone figure, the exact counterpart of the woman who had
died. This strange story soon spread, and hundreds and
thousands of persons were present to seethe strange spec-
tacle. The husband took the body of his departed spouse
home, and has it there now, where it is visited by hundreds
of the curious and scientific. The body seems to have been
petrified, and to have become a perfect stone woman. The
probability is that the body has become adipocere, and will,
before long, melt or crumble,—Cincinati Inquirer.
