RURAL LONGEVITY.—In our obituary this week,
we have to record the death of Mr. John Yates, the
clerk of Hale Church, for the extended period of 46
years. We understand that his predecessor, Samuel
Bushell, officiated for the still longer space of 49
years. The village of Hale, has, indeed, long been
proverbial for its salubrity and the longevity of its in-
habitants. The late John Blackburne, Esq., of Hale
Hall, was representative in Parliament for the county
for the unusual period of 46 years. Last Christmas,
we had to notice the death of " Old Nanny Lackey,"
aged 94; and, between the years 1830 and 1834,
there were living at Hale, Thomas Turton, agent to
John Blackburne, Esq., aged 93 ; Sarah Hawks?,y, 94 ;
Ellen Bayley, 99 ; and Esther Halsall, 104 years.—
Mcvichester Guardian.

THE DEAD ALIVE.—A short time agoaninh

‘,
bitant of Nantes, who was supposed to be dead, was
placed in his coffin for interment, but he suddenly
gave signs of life on hearing the de profundis chanted,
having been simply in a trance, and finally recovered.
This happy recovery is about to give birth, says a
Nantes journal, to a law-suit of a singular character,
for the ex-deceased, after having received the sincere
felicitations of his friends, and the extra-sincere ones
of his heirs, has been presented by the cure who su-
perintended the funeral ceremony, with a demand for
219 f. for the expenses of the funeral. The resusci-
tated gentleman, considering it rather hard to pay
such a sum for a funeral which did not take place, re-
fused to honour the cure's bill, on the ground that he had
not been buried, and that if the cure thought he had,
he had better apply to those who had commanded the
ceremony. The cure, on the other hand, declares that if
the interment had not taken place, it was not his fault,
and that, therefore, as he had prepared all matters ne-
cessary for its proper execution, he should persist in
his demand. So the matter rests at present.—Galig-
names Messenger.
