DAGUERREoTYPEs BY LIGHTNING.

A country woman has recently arrived In
Paris, from the Department of Seine et-Marne,
who should be presented to the Academy OF
Sciences. This woman was, short time since,
watching COW in an open field, when a violent
storm arose. She took refuge under a tree,
which, at the instant, was struck by lightning
the COW was killed, and she was felled to the
earth senseess, where she was soon after found,
the storm having ceased with the fash which
felled her. Upon removing her clothing, the
exact image of the cow killed by her side was
found distinctly impressed upon her bosom.
This curious phenomenon is not without PIE
cedent DIR. Franklin mentions the case o. a
man who was standing in the door of a house
in thunder storm, and who was looking al q
tree directly before him, when it was struck by
lightning. On the mans breast was left q per
feet daguerreotype of the tree.
In l84l, a magistrate and a miller's boy were
struck by lightning near a poplar tree, in one Of
the provinces of France; and upon the breast
of each were found spots exactly resembling the
leaves of the poplar.
At meeting of the French Academy of Sci
ences, January 18th, l847, it was stated that 9
woman of Lugano, seated at window during
q storm, was suddenly shaken by some invis
BILE power. She experienced no Inconvenience
from this, but afterwards discovered that bios
som, apparently torn from a tree by q lightning
stroke, was completely imaged upon one of hel
limbs, and it remained there until her death.
In September, 1925, the brigantine II Boun
Servo, was anchored in the Amino bay, at tn,
entrance of the Adriatic sea, where she wa
struck by lightning. In obedience to a super
stition, the Ionian sailors had attached horse
shoe to the mizzen-mast, az a charm agains
evil. When the vessel was struck, sailor VIII
was seated by this mast was instantly killed
There were no marks or bruises upon bis per
son, but the horseshoe was perfectly pictures
upon his back.
| A Spanish brigantine was once struck In tn
Rade de Zante. Five sailors were at the PROV
three of them awake and two of thum sleeping
One of the latter was killed, and u,on undress
ing him, the figures A, plain and well formed
were found under his left breast. His oomraae
declared that they were not these before hi
death, but their original was found in the rig
ging of the vessel. But the most singulsr facs
connected with this affair are set forth In tn
report of ths physician, Dicapulo, who ssys:
After undressing the young sailor, we foun

band of linen tied about his body, in which
were gold pieces, and two parcels done up in
paper. The one on the right side contained a
letter from Spain, three guineas, and two half
guineas; the other, letter, four guineas. a
half-guinea, and two smaller pieces. Neither
the pieces, the paper, nor the linen, presented
the least appearance of fire. But upon his
right shoulder were six distinct circles, which
preserved the natural color, and appeared as
though traced upon the black skin. These
circles, which all touched at one point, were of
three different sizes, and exactly Hcorresponded
with the gold pieces in the right side of his
