The Opelousas patriot. [volume] (Opelousas, Parish of St. Landry, La.) 1855-1863, 1856-01-12
"Thc Beautiful sleepcr.''

A young and frail Scotch girl. scarcely more
than a child, and beautiful as any of Walter
scott's heroines, has lately attracted the public
attention in Paris by sleeping wherever she
goes Her name is Erina Walton, and her
mother has brought her to Paris to try by
travel to cure her Of her singular malady. At
the opera she no sooner takes her seat in box
than she falls to sleep, and thus remains until
she is awakened, and it is while in this position
that she has gained the title Of I" La Belle
Dormeuse." While she sleeps she is said to
enjoy dreams so lovely and SO attractive that
the awakening into thecommon-plac surround;
ings of this world displeases her, and she hast
ems back again back into dream-land. AT
home, in carriage at the theater, she settles
into a calm, sweet sleep and with lovely and
child-lke face, and dreams such as she enjoys
one can readily imagine that her face in sleer
is the center of attraction for all eyes, and
ttha she well merits the title Of " the Beautiful
Sleeper" The symptoms of this case betray
one of the curious forms of hysteria, and ne
doubt after time has.cured her Of the abnorma
| condition in which she now finds herself sht
will look back upon that period with as mucl
fear as she now docs with delight.
| Aside from the dsordered condition of thi
child's nervous system, it would be curious tt
know how much there is of materiality, how
much of immateriality, in this Swedenborgian
like communion with the land of dreams

unreasonable, resisted the attempt Of the Office
keeper to tempt me by different tickets, and
We had nearly left the shop without purchase,
when the clerk who had been examining diff.
lferent desks and drawers said to his principal |:
think sir, the matter may be managed if
the gentleman does not mind paying a few
shillings more. That ticket, 2,224, only came
yesterday, and we have still all the shares !;
one-half, one quarter, one-eighth two-sixteenths.
1t will be just the same if the young lady is
set upon it." '87
The young lady was set upon it, and the
shares were purchased. ~
The whole affair was q secret between us,
and my father whenever he got me to himself
talked over our future twenty Thousand pounds
just like Alnaschar his basket Of eggs. I'M
Meanwhile, time passed on, and one Sunday
morning we were all preparing to 60 to Church,
when o face that had forgotten, but my father
had not, made its appearance. 1t was the clerk
Of the lottery office. An express had just ar
rived from Dublin, announcing that number
2,224 had drawn prize Of twenty thousand
pounds and he had fastened to communicate
the good news.
All, me! In less than twenty years what was
left Of the produce Of the ticket so strangely
chosen? What? except Wedgwood dinner
service that my father had made to comlnemo-
rate the event, with the Irish harp. within the

Miss NIltford's Lottery Ticket.

The following strange incident in the life of
Mary Russell Milford, related by herself, may
not have been before brought to the notice OF
our readers.
What my fathers plans were l do not
exactly know; probably to gather together
what disposable money still remained after pay
ing all debts from the sale of books, plate, and
furniture at Lyme, and thence to proceed
(backed by his greatly lessened incomc) to
practice in some distant town. At all events
London was the best starting place, and he
could consult his old fellow-pupil and life long
friend, DR.. Darlington, then one of the physl-
clans to Guys Hospital, and refresh his medi-
cal studies with experiments and lectures,
while determining in what place to bestow
himself.
In the meanwhile his spirits returned as
buoyant as ever, and so, now that fear had
changed into certainty, did mine. ln the in
terval of his professional pursuits he walked
about London with his little girl in his hand ;
and one day Gt was my birth day, and was
ten years old, he took me into not very
tempting looking place, which was, as speed
ytound, a lotteryotfice. An Irish lottery was
upon the point Of being drawn, and he desired
me to choose one out Of several bits OF printed
paper Il did not then know their slgnlllcance)
that lay upon the counter.
Choose which number you like best said
the dear papa, "and that shall be your birth
day present"
Il Immediately selected one, and put it into
bis hand-No 1924.
"Ah," said my father, examining it, yot
must choose again l want to buy whole
ticket, and this is only quarter. Choos
again, my pet"
"No dear papa, like this one best"
Here is the next number" interposed tn
lottery office keeper, Z" No. 1929"
All said my father, F" that will do just
well will it not, Mary? Well take that"
"No!" returned I, obstinately;" that won
do. This is my birthday you know, paps
and am ten years old. Cast up my number
and you'll find that it makes ten. The other
only nine"

was struck with my pertinaclty, and with tt
reason gave, which he liked none the LEI
