Biology Extraordinary.

We have been informed of most sim
gular case of animal magnetism that oc-
CURED at Northampton about fortnight
since. A young lady and gentleman, for
the sport Of the thing, undertook to look
each other out of countenance.' After
looking at each other earnestly for some
time, the young man went to sleep, and
others in the room endeavored 10 wax
him, but could not succeed. They then
became alarmed, and sent for physician.
He, however, succeeded no better than the
rest, and suggested that the lady was the
only one that could wake him. The
waking process, however, was one which
she did not understand, and the somnam.
bullst was taken OFT Of doors and walked
about the streets, and was not awakened
until late hour in the morning. The
main statement of this singular case we
are assured is entirely correct, as we have
given it.-[Sprngfeld Rep.
