Patent Elastic Saddles.

A WORD TO THOSE WHO ARE FOND OF EASY
RIDING.
The complaint against hard and uneasy
saddles, which is for the most part just
and general one, and is really great grle.
vance 20 those who have much riding to
do. has caused him to turn his mind par
ticularly to that ,ubject, with view, II
possible, to remedy the evil. He can
with confidence assure the public that he
has accomplished it. The plan projected
is by means of strong aud well tempered
steel springs, so constructed as TO support
the saddle seat and give much greater ease
to both rider and horse, than saddles made
IN the common way or any other that he
has ever seen can possibly do. The plan
is entirely different from the English elias
tic saddles with spring bars of steel,
whalebone, &C. and also from those with
wire springs, aud be conceires much su'
perinr 10 either, as the elasticity is great.
er, and The tree not beng put oct OF ITS o.
rieinal form, will rot be subject to hurting
horses on Journeys, which is complained
OF in the saddles with spring bars A
number of gentlemen have those saddles
now IN use. and out oRe sentiment exists
among them in favor OF lhe!: superiority.
The invention is equally as applicable 10
ladies' saddles as to gentlenen's. 10
point of durability they will be warranted
equal 10 any other saddles and superior 10
most. JAMEo 'hNoAN 1.

SIMULATED DEATH.

A very extraordinary case of this

Hammersmith, in the person of Har-

housemaid in the family OF Robert
Emmer son. Esq. of Oxford-street. -
Thi girl, it seems, had. about three
years ago, been thrown from the top

severe Commissions. both internal and

her strength, and brought on gra-
dual decay of nature. Being inca

business, she reiinquished her situa-
tion.and obtained an ASYLUM beneath
the roof of a female relative at Ham.

her total cessation from all corporeal
labor. her complaint still advanced ;
she every day grew weaker, and was

day week she had been taken out for
an airing, and returned home with
renewed strength. and in rather bet.

some refreshments, she complained
of excessive inclination to sleep, and
was therefore placed in bed between
the hours of six and seven in the af-

In apparent enjoyment of profound
repose, she remained until q far adj

fell destroyer death. The last OFF,
ccs to her remains, which are direct.
cd by decency, were then performed;
the corpse was attired in the usual
grave clothes. and laid on a bed.
where It remained from Friday noon
until Sunday morning. the afternoon
of which day was fixed for the inter
ment. Happily, however. the horri-
BILE event, which We fear occurs but
too often, was frustrated. On the
removal of the body from the bed to
the coffin, one of the persons engaged
inadvertently placed her hand "n the
bosom, and fancying its touch inn
parted sensation far more warm
than the damp and clammey feel of a
corpse, she naturally expressed her
opinion to those who were assisting
in the melancholy office: closer ex-
animation convinced them they were
about to commit to the cold grave a
living subject. The cheeks were
still livid and colorless the eye ex-
hibited no sensation of vision, but the
vital principles reigned about the re-
rion of the heart, and on the appli-
cation of a glass. breathing was once
more perceptible. The physician
who had attended during her illness
was instantly sent for: on his arrl-
val, signs of returning animation
were so manifest, that he concluded
| bleeding and the application of warm
bricks would be productive of imme-
date restoration. He, therefore. o.
pcned a vein, first in one arm, and
then in the other, but without effect;
every other effort proved equally un-
| a, aiIing, until about o'clock in the
evening, when a rapid change took
place; the throbbing of the heart and
pulse became audible, the cheeks and
lips partially regained their crimson,
respiration returned with ease and
vigor. and in few moments all the
animal powers assumed their func'
tons. During the interesting inter
val. the various insignia of death
were removed, in order that she
hould not be terrified by their APP
pearance when perception returned
but being questioned as to her health
| in the customary manner, she mani.
tested no knowledge of what her 81
tuation had been. merely saying tina,
she felt cold and weak, with an OK
traordinary oppression and a sensa-
ton of fear, not unlike that which is
experienced i'm dreams, when atiict-
ed with the complaint commonly call
ed nightmare. She has improved
not only in health. but in spirits, eve
ny day since her visi: to the other
world, and is now likely to be long

THE LORDS PRAYER.

The following is a literal transla-
ton of the Lords Prayer, as written
by talfrida, Bishop Of Lindisfarne,
a.ou the year 700, and which is the
earliest specimen of the Anglo-Sax
on language now exta't, viz:
Sour Father. which art in hca
ven, be hallowed thy name !; to come
thine kingdom ; be thine will so is in
heaven and earth our loaf super-ex
cellent ,give us to-day and forgive US
debts ours. as we forgiven debts of
ours and not lead us into tempta
ton, but free US each from eviL-a-
men,"
By a literal translation of this
Prayer, as rendered two hundred
years after the period above alluded
to, the only material alteration that
appears to have taken place is the %.
mission of the sentence, be hallowed
thy name.'
About the year 1850, in Henry the
Seconds reign, the Lords Prayer
vas translated by Pope Adrian ~.
as follows, and sent into England:
TIRE Fader in Heaven rich,
Thy name be hailed Itch;
Thou bring us thy michall biisse,
Ais his in heaven y doe
Evar in yearth been it also,
That holy bread that lasteth ay,
Thou send it Gus this ilka day,
Forgive Gus all that we have done
As we forgiven other mon.
Nclet us fall into no founding
Ac shield Gus fro the fowlething .-Ame@."
In the reign of Henry the Third.
the LORDS Prayer was rendered in
English, in verse like the former, but
differing in a tritling degree.
In Richard the Thirds reign the
Lords Prayer was altered by Wick.
life, in his translation of his New
Testament. 1t is brought back into
prose. The words gifus this day
our bread are followed by 'over o.
Their substance There is the same
addition in the Prayer of Henry the
Sixth's reign; and what is singu-
lar, the Prayer Of both those periods
is more similar to the form now Oh
served than the Prayer of Henry the
Eighth's reign, (l5sl,) which is as
follows:
sOur fader tat arte in huen, sane
tifyed be thy name. thy kynsdoRe to
VS.. The wyA te done in earth as in
