MANCHESTER.

Saturday Miss Heisby, a young Lady residing in Salford, about
in years of age, died in a very sudden manner. On the preceding
evening she was invited to a party, at the house of a Gentleman
residing in Broughton, where there was a dance, in which, as she
kit a little indisposed, she declined dancing, but played on the
pianoforte for the dancers. As it was late in the evening when the
party broke up, she slept all night at the house of the Gentleman
who gave It, and rose in the morning, to dl appearance, in good
health. She was in the act of washing her hands, when she
suddenly reclaimed to a young Lady who was its the bedroom with
her—" I have got the cramp in one of my hands; and after paus-
ing a moment added, " and in the other also." In a very few
gninutes she entirely lost the use of both bands and both arms.
Feeling a good deal alarmed at the circumstance, she went down
stairs, and bad scarcely got to the bottom when she began to feel
the same sensation in her feet, and in a very short time wholly lest
the use of her limbs. This torpidity then gradually extended over
her whole frame, and in a few hours put an end to her eshtenee.
After death a surgical examination was considered necessary, when
it was ascertained that her decease was owing to the rupture of a
blood-vessel in the spine, and a consequent effusion of blood spots
the spinal cord.
