. AN ELEDIRICAI., LA DY.—A respectable physician, in the
last number of Silliman's Joui•eal. give's the followingecuarrigoeuds
account of an electrical lady :—Lle states, that on' the evening,
of Jan. 28th, during a somewhat extraordinary display of thy
northern lights, the person in question became so highly charged
with electricity, as to give Out Vivid 'electrical sparks from the
g anst
end of each finger to the race' of each of the company present.
This did not cease with
,the heavenly phenomenon, but con-
tinued for several months, Burin which time she w
charged, and giving off electrical sparks to every conductors constantly
charged,
l
approached. This was extreMely vexatious, as she could nut
touch the stove no? any metallic utensil, without first giving off
an electrical spark, with the consequent twinge. The state most.
favourable to this phenomenon was an atmosphere of about 80
Fah., moderate exercise, and social enjoyment. It disappeared
in an atmosphere approaching zero, and under the debilitating
effects of fear.. When seated by the stove, reading, with her
feet upon the fender, she gave spat ks at the rate of three or more
a minute, and under the most favourable circumstances a spark
that could he seen; felt, or heard, passed every second ! She
could charge others in the same way, when insulated, who
could then give sparks to others. To make it satisfactory that
her dress did not produce it, it was changed to cotton and wool-
len, without' altering the Phrnoinentm. The lady is about 30,
of sedentary pursuits. and a delicate state of health, having for
two years previous suffered from acute rheumatism and neuralgic
affections, with peculiar symptoms.
