Extraordinary Affair at a Lunatic Asy-
luna In Ohio

From the Cleveland (0hiol Herald, March 81
Among the iomates of the Northern Ohio
Lunatic Asylum is person named Whesdoo,
once highly respectable citizen in good cir
cumstc noes, and said to have been a member
of the former coal firm of |. G.. Pendleton & Co.
He has been in the Asylum for some time.
For some time past he has manifested a strong
disposition TO escape, and The utmost care ard
vigilance has been exercised to Illustrate his
designs, but not always with success. Before
being placed in his sleeping room al night, he
has been always stripped and carefully exam
ined 10 prevent the secretng of any instru-
ment, and all his clothes but his shirt, panta-
looms and stockings taken away. In spite of
these precautions, he has succeeded three times
within few days in escaping from his room.
About two weeks since he took set of false
teeth cut of his mouth, and by constant work
contrved with them TO saw hole through The
floor of his chamber, making an aperature sufi-
Gent to admit of his dropping through into ano-
ther part Of the house, and then escaping. He
was traced and caught at the house OF Mr. PEN
dleton, on Euclid street.
A few days since he secreted pia and with
that exceedingly unlikely instrument managed
to pick the lock of his door and escaped into the
hall, where he was fortunately arrested. He
then stated that pin was of more value than
$4,000 when he wished to escape from room.
Last Saturday night he was carefully exam
ined, as usual, before being placed in his room,
but succeeded in secreting small brass ring,
split al one part, in his hair. On being locked
up for the night, he set to work, and with the
ring he cut through the window sash and shut
ters, so as to enable him to remove them from
the window. He then took the coverlid of the
bed, and tore il into strips, with which he made
rope reaching nearly to the ground, distance
of some twenty-five or thirty feet. Some of
the cotton batting with which the coverlid ives
wadded he placed in his stockings TO protect
his feet, as he had no shoes. Then dressing
himself in shirt, trowsers and stockings, he slid
down the rope and escaped.
Striking across the country TO Eight Mile
Lock, he then took the towpsih of the canal
and walked down to University Heights, where
he arrived yesterday afternoon. The officers
of the asylum on his track, came on him yes
terduy Sunday afternoon. He was very quiet
when arrested. and spoke freely Of his escape
! and made no Resistance to being taken back Ia
! the asylum. We question whether this series
of extraordinary escapes can be well matched

Then going to the drawer in which her wax
doll was laid, unlocked it, and taking out the
beautiful effigy, placed il on the pillow beside
her. How sweet the two faces looked; the
living and the inanimate. / gazed at them
until my eyes were blinded by tears, and then
went back to the sitting-roon, where made
another effort to resume my wsrk. My hand
had grown little steadier, but the heart was
gone. For avery short time endeavored 10
force myself TO keep on with my appointed
task; but mind and body both dissented so
strongly, that the garments l had hoped to
complete were finally laid aside, not to be
touched again until To- morrow.
AS was doing this, a sigh for my lost day
passed sadly from my lips. At this moment
heard Hetty's feet and voice; she had awaken
ed, and finding Dolly by her side, had forgotten
all the past, and was as happy as child could
be.
"Dear, dear, sweet Dolly !" she was singing
as bithely as if grief had never laid finger
upon her heart.
"Oh, mamma !" she exclaimed, as she eu-
tered the sitting room, "yon are so good to
give me Dolly TO play WITH" and she came
dancing to me, with her dewy lips put up to
mine for kiss.
There was no rebuke on those precious lips
oh no. That kiss was loves own best ex-
preston; and yet stung me with remorse.
Hetty's irlal-wa over; her griefforgotten.-
But on nay bosom was laid the burden of regret,
and could not throw it off. Her state of dis.
turbance had passed like the morning cloud nd
the early dew but mine kept pulsing on and
shsdowing the hours that mig ht have passed in
cheerful work.
counted that day lost, except for the lesson
it taught me. for when laid my aching head
upon iis pillow at night, could not look back
upon any useful thing accomplished. There
had been fruitless efforts to do many things
but my restless state kept me fitting aud chan
ging, aud my hali-formed purposes wrought out
no sure results. ....

WHo ARE WHrE CITIzEEs.-The Cincin-

Of Judge Cholson, of the Supreme Court of
Ohio, affirming the right OF man whose father
was white. without the admixture of any Atri-

three-fourths white and one-fouh African blood,
to exercise the right Of suffrage. This deuis.
ion was mades Notwithstanding the Constitu.

stitutlon OF PcnDsylsania, restricts the right Of

The Atlantic Gable.

There is projects on foot for laying another
Atlantic Cable. We perceive by the English
papers, that meeting Of the Atlantic Tele.
graph Company was to have been held in Lon
don. on The first day of February, at which a
proposition would be made for enabling the di-
rectors, "ei,her with the whole or portion Of
the stockholders. or with other persons" 10
make arrangements for raising the injured por-
ton of the injured cable, and for making an
other effort, next summer, to complete the ori-
ginal undertaking of the Company. 1t is con-
sidered hopeless. we understand, to make ary
effort to recover the line whose magnificent
failure, after a brilliant fash of success, SO as
tonished the world in the year 1858. .
In the Atlantic Monthly for the present
month, an article on the Progress of the Elec-
trio Telegraph" concludes thus:
"When Shu kspeare made Puck promise 10
put a girdle round about the earth in forty
minutes he undoubtedly supposed he would
thereby accomplish a remarkable feat; but
when The great Russo American line via Beh-
rings Strait and the Amoor is completed, and
the Atlantic cable is again in operation, we can
put an electric girdle around about the earth
before Puck could have time to spread his
wings!
ain view of what must actually take place
at no distant day the girdling Of the earth by
the electric wires--a sIagular question arises
If we send current of electricity east, il will
lose twenty-four hours in going around the
globe; if we send one west, it will gain twenty
fur, or, in other words, will get back to the
starting place twenty-four hours before il seis
out. Noy, if we send current half way round
the world, it will get there twelve hours 10 ae'
vance of or twelve hours behind our time, sc-
cording as we send it east or west; the queit
tion which naturally suggests itself, therefore,

not be ufactured. II is the spontaneous

suppose that either Of these journals expresses
