Interesting case of Son1nan,6ulism.-The fol.
lowing facts were communicated to US by a ply.
stefan Of this place, in relation to case to which
he has been called professionally, and Of which
he has been an eve witness:
A female about nineteen years of age, living
in family 10 this town, is frequently known to
rise from her bed during the night, while asleep,
dress herself. and 60 about her daily employ.
ments In several instances she has got up and
set the table for breakfast, with as much regu.
larty as she does when awake, selecting the right
articles, and placing them upon the table exactly
as they should be. In one instance she went in
to the buttery, which was perfectly dark, skim
med the cream from the milk, and poured it in.
to one bowl, and the milk into another, without
splitting any at all She frequently goes to the
drawers where her clothes are kept, changes the
position OF the articles, takes them out, and in
some cases has placed them where she could not
find them when awake. In one instance she took
out her needle book, and it has not been found
since; but at a subsequent paroxysm, she was
found sewing. in the dark, ring upon curtain,
with needle and thread, which it was supposed,
from several circumstances, she could have OBJ
tanned from no other source but the lost needle
book.
This fact, together with other facts in the case,
seem to show some connection between the Sc.
veral paroxysms, in regard to the trains Of
thought; and also an analogy between this and
some cases of insanity, where lucid intervals
intervene. In all these instances she moves
about the house with as much ease and self pos.
session as if every thing was going on as usual,
avoiding persons and objects which are in her
way, although her eyes are often shut.
When in one Of these paroxysms, she usually
talks great deal, and with much more huency
and vivacity than in her waking hours, and oc.
casionally upon religious subjects, SO that the
case may, in this respect, be somewhat anala.
gous to the sleeping preacher at saybrook. One
striking feature Of this case is. that she is gov.
erned in her language and actions by her dream.
ing thoughts or imaginatioas, and all her impress
sions from external objects are made to accord
perfectly with these imaginations. For instance,
she frequently supposes herself 10 some other
place, usually her native place, and calls the
persons around her by the names of persons who
live in that place, and speaks with much interest
Of scenes and objects which she has seen there.
IL inquired of about persons and things in Spring
field. particularly the family in which sbe lives,
she knows nothing about them. Nothing which |
can be said or done to her seems to have the |
slightest influence in changing the current Of her
thoughts. All attempts to awaken her generally |
prove unsuccessful.
At one time cold water was thrown upon, her,
