Irswicn. Dtc s.—We regret to state, that subse-
quent conflagrations at Witham and in its vicinity, of
ford the strongest reasons to b Bove that they have
been occarobed by the hand of one or more incendirry.
To the melancholy proofs which lead us to such a con-
elusion we have to add, the deArucion of the produce
of duee acres and a halt of whrot, one acre and a half
f oats, and about seven loads f hay, standing in thief
parcel-, upon a small farm ( .ithout a blithe) called
Mitt's, ,belonging t ) Mrs. S. Ducane, near the nine
miles one, between Witham and Kelvedon, occupied by 1
Messrs. Henry and Charles Barwell, whose' loss is esti-
mated at about one hundred and twenty plumb, which
is partly covered by the insurance in the EWE Equit-
able Office. The fire broke out about 7 o'clock tn. the
eireming of Saturday last, and began, it is-supposed,
with some haulm, which was in a tumbrel, the latter
being also burnt ; a barn near, from which the wind
blew the times, was saved. Monday evening, about
halt past six, a timber built and 1114 C-bed barn, occupied
as a wheelwright's shop, the property of C. C. Western.
E%q. with several adjoining buildings, were discovered
to be on fire, and the stiff breeze that was blowing
threatened destruction to a great portion of the property
in the immediate vicinity of thefurnpike. The stack
yards of M .Porter and Mr. Like were very dangerously
situated, and had it not been for a considerable sinking
of the wind, the putting down a abed, and an ample
supply of w ler, which confined the fire to the spot
a here it broke out, we should have had the painful
task of recording a further destruction of property.--
The residence of the Misses Blackbune was at one time
in great peril. This is the fourth time within less than
a month that the inhabitants of Witham have been
called out by fires in the town and vicinity. Tpat the
fireswere the work of an incendiary there can be no
doubt, and every endeavourjs using to discover the per-
pets ator of such heinous &edit

An Italian Paper, II Giornalf d'Amodei, of October
last, contains an extraordinary account of a case of total
abstinence from food 4/f every kind during the long_pe.
riod of two years, eight months, and eleven days. • The
patient in this case was a woman named Gathern. of
Racconis, in Piedmont, who died on the 19th. of
May last. aged tor ty-eigl.t years. During the period
above stated, she had remained without taking any
sort of sustenance, solid or liquid, but she appears to hare
retained her mental powers until within a few hours cif
her death. Thia•woman was regarded in the place where
she resided as a saint, and was daily visited by crowds ;
but from the examination of the body after death, by
two eminent professors of anatomy at Turin, Rolando
and Gallo, it appeared that the abstinence was to be
accounted fur by one of the rare effects of pathological
phenomena. These professors, after describing the
appearance of the body, which had become similar to
that of a mummy, state that tbe.cause of the abstinence
arose from a mechanical injury, by which the tranverse
Colon was carried into the cavity of the pelvis, and the
stomach, osiopbagus, and pharynx, so acted upon, that
deglutition became painful, and at length impossible.
The patient being reduced, like some animals, to lire
bpon her own sub tance, no longer sustained loss by
Cutaneous or ether secretion, except pulmonary, which
was so slight as not to soil a glass when applied to the
lips. These Gentlemen imagined that the absorption
by which life was sustained was assisted by some prin.
ciple•in.tbe atmosphere-_the nutritive support derived
by the patient from her own sub 'mice and absorption
from• the atmosphere being no longer sufficient to repair
the losses sustained, rte substance which. was in the di-
grieve canal previously to the mechanical injusq
brcinght on a slow inflammation, accompanied with
fever, arbichroduced vngrece and death. •
