-Four men often cannot weave a quarter oil an

DEATH CAUSED BY A CORPsE-A sad acct
dent happened some time ago in farm house
near Liberty, Missouri. The mistress of the
house became ill one morning, having, accord.
ing to symptoms, received an attack of chole-
ia. Her husband had left the house at day
break, and her only daughter, who was then
with her, sent for physician. After few
hours the latter arrived, but was already at
the door received by the sobbing girl with the
cry ''She is dead" Lie was conducted into
the room where the corpse lay, examined it,
and directed the daughter not to allow the in
terment until twenty -four hours had elapsed
He had scarcely done when the corpse nodded
significantly. The daughter saw this motion,
and was SO Mortified that she fell down dead
on the spot. 1t is well known fact that per-
sons who die of cholera retain the warmth of
the blood for a long time, and frequently alarm
bystanders by contraction of the muscles
When the poor farmer came home in the ove-
ming he found nothing but corpses. The doc
tor, however, had to suffer most he had to
leave the State.

dREAT Observation-Disclosures TAKEN From
THE HUMAN SYSTEM BY ELECTRICITY.-Hayi
nearu a rumOr on the street that mercury had
oeen extracted from the body of a sick man in
the form of quicksilver, and being anxious To
witness such an experiment, we accompanied
DOCTORS foumans and Seltzer the operators
yesterday, for the purpose of Judging for curse
of the truth Of the statement.
We found Mr.. Jacob Hymrod, the nat;ent
living in the south part of the oity, who has
Deen afflicted with the chronic rheumatism for
the last ten years, lying upon the bed in an en-
1eebled state, who told Us that he had hereto.
lore tried every kind of medical treatment
without success. He had swallowed during his
sickness vast quantities of mercury in the shane
OF calomel and blue pills, from the effects of
which he had nearly lost the use of his limbs
lie showed US globule of quicksilver larger
than good sized pea, which he said had been
gathered from the bottom of the electric hath
in which he had been placed.
tie had been seated upon a metallic stool in
an insulated zinc bath, well coated with paint,
and his feet immersed in calculated water
The galvanic battery was then applied, and
the positive pole held in the hands of the pa
tlent, the negative pole being in the bath. 1t
Is claimed that the power of the electricity
upon the system is such as to eradicate eyery
metallic substance; and by means of the wire
it is deposited in the bottom of the tub. II
requires some twenty-four hours for the globules
to collect themselves, so as to be perceptible
to the naked eye, when they may be seen by
thousands clinging to the sides and bottom Of
the bath
We were informed by the doctors that three
drachms of quicksilver had already been taken
from the patient; who, together with his
friends and relatives present, confirmed the
statement.
Although this pumping quicksilver out of
the BODY OF man by the means of galvanic
battery may seem strange, and smell little
of humbug, we trust our scientific and medical
men will not pass the experiment without a
thorough investigation. - Columbus (Ohto)
