EXTRAORDINARY AFFAIR.

on Monday last, lady about 40 years
OF age, presented herself to DIR. A. D.
Cutter, of this place, Cor his advice and
treatment. Her case is strange and
perplexing one Languaged would fail
10 convey any thing like an adequate
idea of the sufferings which she constant
ly endures. She is reduced to a mere
skeleton--is never still.-looks worn and
hagard, and says she is only kept alive
by the pain and torment which She en-
durcs.
There is a kvc reptile, or something else
Of similar character, in her stomach.
and extending up into her throat, nearly
to the roots of her tongue Externally,
its movements are seen perfectly plain;
and by applying the hand to her throat
or stomach, one can feel its motions dis
tinctly, and cannot use pressure enough
with the hand to stop these motions.
When she does not eat at her regular
times its contortions are much worse,
am. almost past endurance. When she
attempts to eat, she cannot use knne
and fork, she has to use her hands to
cram the food into her throat, in order to
satisfy its craving voracity, after her
meals are over, she is troubled less with,
it's writings and contortions for short
time. She says that she is always trav-
cling, seldom or never sleeps, She ap-
pears on the verge of the mania and has
commissions at times. The movements
of this thing, she describes to be worse
than the cutting of a Knife. et
BY pressing down t1ne back part of tho
tongue SO as to open the upper part of
her throat; a portion oS the head of this
thing has been distinctly seen, resemLlne,
IN appearance, the end Of the head of an
eel. -37
Many ladies and gentlemen of unSoubt>
cd veracity all testify to the truth Of these
statements.
This lady says that soas years a,Eo.
IN taking a drink OF water one night, 10
felt some live thing slip down her throat
with the water; tliat after some time had
elapsed, she felt uneasy sensations ID Her
stomach, which gradually grew worse add
worse up to this time, that she had not
endured SO great an amount Of suffering
only since last September.
DIR. Cutler, does not pretend to give
any explanation whatever of this case.
The lady is under his medical treatment.

o. The Washington correspondent Of the New
York Journal Of Commerce writes:'
There is rumor that Russia has determined
TO close the Black Sea to the commerce of the
United States, and of all nations
The rumOr is extremely improbable. Russia has
no more right to shut up the Black Sea than Mo-
rocco has to shut up the Mediterranean, because
she has territories which border it for a long dis
lance. The Black Sea is more nearly under the
sovereignty of Turkey than Of Russia, for the
Turkish territories cover one side, and both sides
OF the Strait by which access is obtained are within
the Turkish territory. So long as both shores Of
the sea were within the exclusive Jurisdiction Of
Turkey, she had a right to exclude all nations
When its Northern coasts came under the do.
miniOn of Russia, the sea became open to her nav
igatOrs, and of all maritime nations besides. After
the crossing Of the Balkan and the humiliation Of
Turkey by Russia in 1929 the treaty to which the
FIVE great powers were parties, expressly recogni
zed the freedom of the Black Sea and of the Oar.
danelles to the commerce Of the world. This was
designed for the benefit of Russia-who would
otherwise have been shut up within the seattle
Straits being under the control of the Porte 1t is
therefore absurd to suppose that Russia has the
design of violating that treaty, and claiming abso
Lutte sovereignty over the whole sea. The right O.
entry into the Black Sea only extends to merchant
vessels. The same treaty recognized fully the
ancient rule of the Ottoman Empire, that no ship
ofwar should, of right, be permitted to pass into
the sea. The Sultan regulates that matter by spe.
cial tfTmans with each nation.
The Commercial Treaty of the United States
with Turkey authorizes the merchant vessels Of
the United States to enter into the Black Sea- and
go and come, in like manner as vessels of the most
favored nations The rumored design of Russia
would conflict with this treaty, we'll as with the
| Treaty of AdFianople, and would therefore be an
act Of war with Turkey and with the rest of Eu-
rope, as well as of offence and injury to the United
States

than nine thousand letters, but the papers were

"extra mail consisting of letters too late for the
Ohio, and such as were marked to go by her, to.
gether with dispatches for the U. s. Squadron on

arrive until ten minutes before three, and many
