A LIE IiAnG LOVER The writer Of
d scientific article in the ot,te relates n
singular instance Of prolonged lethargy
A farm servant at Rouen who was about
to marry, learned suddenly that his inten.
ded bride whom lie was passionoiely in
love. had deceived him, md was on the
point Of lie omug the wife Of another -
The young man. although of an exctablo
nature, betrayed no signs of impatience,
but yawned, stretched himself, and then
complained Of q heaviness in the head
and feeling Of drowsincss lie went to
bed and fell asleep, but the next day it
was found that he could net be awaken
ed Efforts to arouse him were made
continually ior week, but with no better
success. He was then removed to the
hospital, where he remained for four
months without giving any other token Of
life than an occasional convulsiye move
ment of the eyes An attempt was made
to make him swallow q little wine and
broth, but the process Of dcglutition did
not take place, md tie liquids flowed
from his mouth. AT the expiration OF the
above mentioned period he awoke, aud
manifested his surprise at finding himself
in hospital, and could scarcely believe

The alarming lcanncss 10 which he had
been reduced soon disappeared he re-
covered his strength, aud shortly after
consoed himself for his faithless sweet,
heart by marrying another.

That Sherman had captured Savannah
before the steamer which brought the above
despatch had fairly got out of the harbor of
Port Royal is probable, from the fact that u
messenger who reached here this morning
says that when coming out Of the harbo +,
and when too late to commun cate by signals,
the whole feet fred salute. Upon look
ing toward the vessels they wero being de-
corated with flags, in honor of some great
victory. The opinion that prevailed on
board the steamer was, that since she left
the wharf news had reached the Admiral Of
the fall Of Savannah.

A MAN PolsoNs HIS WIFE AT THE BREAK.
FAST TABLE

The Chicago Tribune of Tuesday says
that one of the most cool, premeditated
and cold blooded murders that has re.
Gently occurred in the city of Chicago,
was perpetrated yesterday. A man
named Frank Spindler, residing on Bun
ker street, three doors from Halsted, pro-
duced the death Of his wife under the fol.
lowing circumstances -
Yesterday morning while they were
at breakfast, the wife saw her husband go
to the teapot and put something into it,
She thought nothing of il at the time and
drank the tea without suspicion. He,
however, hurried away, pretending that
he was in too great haste to wait for
breakfast. Soon after drinking the tea
Mrs Spindler was taken violently i'll with
great pain, vomiting and commissions.
During the forenoon woman living
near by called in, and her liltle girl went
10 the teapot and drank some OF the tea,
AID was likewise soon taken il! Mrs.
Spindler then suspected that she was poi
soned, and related the circumstances Ia
her neighbor. who Immediately took the
teapot and the remaining tea and was
ia ing ii away when Spindler came home
and ordered her to give it to him, which
she refused to do. lie then attempted
to take it from her by force, but she re-
sisted and succeeded III getting away witt
it. Dr. McAllister was called, and fount
the symptoms to be those produced by
mineral poison, and examining the con-
, tents of the teapot found it to contain
, large quantities of arsenic. About fou
o'clock in the afternoon the woman died
Spindler, finding that he had been detect
ed, attempted to make his escape. Blu
Superintendent Tuttle was speedily mott
fed. and officer Miller, of his dctectiv,
! staff, detailed to arrest him, and he wa
taken about eight o'clock in the evening

THREE THOUSAND MUsKErs LOST

AhhHN AhOODAND MI ShGIO LUST.
Under the following, the Savannah
Republican of the Sd has the following
When Governor Brown left Nlilledge-
vile, he took with him all of his own
property of every description, including
his furniture, carriage and horses, poul-
try, and even the cabbages that grew in
his garden. The train was loaded with
these individual assets, and all sent
safely to one of his extensive plantations
in southwestern Georgia. He took good
care of himself.
Was he equally dilligent in looking
after the affairs and property of the
State ? Take few other facts in illustra-
tion of this point. All the powder of the
State at Milledgeville, was left behind to
make room for the "collards" and chick
ems, and was sent forward the next day
by persons who felt greater interest in the
property of the State than the Governor.
Three thousand stand of arms were also
left behind as insignificant when COM
pared with the Governors "plunder,"
and these were all destroyed by the
enemy.
These facts reach us from sources Of
the first respectability.
