Se5-C Considerable excitem ment was oocs-
stoned in Cleveland, last week, by singular
case Of Suspended animation. A young wo.
man was taken sick, and apparently died.
The body began 10 grow cold, and the pulse
ceased to beat while upon the application
of looking glass 60 the lips no breath was
percepuble, The proper persons were sent
for to lay out the body, and on entering the
chamber, the dead woman was discovered
sitting up in bed. At the fret glance the
whole party fied screaming from the room,
and one young woman tainted away. Re-
storatives we're applied, and the ''defunct'
is now in fair way Of returning to healthy
existence.

The COMPLIMENTARY BENEFIT This evening
the young ladies of Cooper Seminary Insisted
by Prof. Rolle, and Messrs. Rice Loves, Kens
ney, Stoddard, and other gentlemen noted for
their musical abilities, will give their second
concert in Huston Hall. The occasion will be
distinguished as substantial compliment to
Mis- ORToS, to whose energy, talents, and exs
quisite musical abilities we were mainly indebt
ed for the late concert, and for previous musical
treats in Huston Hall. What adds materially
to the tribute-to Miss Orton this evening is the
fact that it was entirely unsought, and that the
community is anxious TO offer IL
The programme for this evening will, we
hope, be as nearly that OF last Thursday oven
ing as possible. If the Fair Benefcare will
sing "Dreams," aud another song equally as
sweet, her friends will be highly gratifed; but
we again say-De hope the programme will
not be materially changed. 1t is not necessary
to urge any body to go tonight. Every effort
will be made to seat the audience, but we would
advise the people to procure tickets at the book
and music stores, to avoid the necessary delay
at the ticket office in the Hall.
We say to all--Go early; don't interrupt the
performance and annoy the audience by coming
in when the Concert is half over.

III We have not seen it, but We learn from
a paragraph going the rounds of the papers,
that the question "For what is ValenIia Bay
notedR' is in the Biographies Of the day. aud
the answer to it is "For being terminus to
the Atlantic Cable"
The compiler Of the last geography may be
excused for making brief allusion to the great
humbug about which thousands of our scien-
tifc men went crazy. There is this differences
while the solons aforesaid have not word 10
say about the "great exploded" and deny
having ever expressed any faith in the project,
the geography constantly reminds the public Of
the gullability of the compiler, and his un-
lucky record Of 1t.
We see by the late foreign arrival that the
Atlantic Telegraph Company is endeavoring
TO get the wire again in motion. 1t will not
amount TO any thing. we predict. Some
Yankee is now engaged in experimenting upon
cable which W i'll probably answer the pur-
pose.

~ The Empress Of France has never been
talked about" but letters enough have been
written of her appearance, etc. The last one
tells how at the Tuilleries "her swan like neck
rose out Of bed of diamonds, and her soft
auburn hair lay back upon diadem of the
most exquisite JoeOn She wore diamond
bracelets; but so well does she know what to
do with her hands, that one scarcely notices
them. She was beautiful picture, encircled
in a soft ETHEREAL atmosphere--an atmosphere
of beauty and soul, of delicacy ard refine

The SABBATH IN CUBA.--The editor of the
Columbia South Carolinian, writing from
Trinidad de Cuba, says
In business matters there seems to be no
difference between Sundays and other days
the stores are all open, and things hawk.
ed about the streets as during the week.
Sunday is the great day for Amusement
bull fights and cock fights and balls being
given on that day. Passing by the theater
last evening, on returning from walk, an
immense crowd induced an inquiry into the
cause of it, when we found that there was a
dignity ball Of eolored folks going on. A
man standing at the door had just communi,
Gated the information that the house was
full, and no more could be admitted, At
these balls the coored ladies vie with their
betters, though not recognizing them as
such, and dress in the extreme Of fashion.
The colored gents have equal oretensions,
and their style Of dress is pro minent fea,
ture in the picture.

baronet, was SO deep a sleeper that it was al
ways difficult TO wake her and in the year
1858 fire broke out at night in the family
mansion, when a male domestic burst into her
room, and sualching her, as she lay in led,
conveyed her to place of safety, Strange to
say, the lady's high sense of modesly caused
her preserver to be discharged from her fathers

to ascertain that they can get first class goods

would rent for between $4,000 and $4,000 in

bered by literary people, that the same author
wrote book with the taking title Of IL

critics all over this country. "Woman" is said
to be an improvement upon the former work
II co. it is style Of literature more nearly
adapted to an American climate. II we should
denounce the book, we should probably be
charged with desiring Its snlej as Il is. then, we
will only announce it for the benefit of the Gu.
rious and those who admire the peculiaritics
Of French romances.
