will remain for the present.
KEEL, Sept. Is.
Field-Marshal Won Gablenz, the new
Governor of Holstein, has arrived here,
and has issued a proclamation addressed
to the inhabitants of the duchy. The
Field-M Marshal expresses the hope that, as
the representative of the Emperor of
Austria, he would meet with The same
kindness which had been shown by them
to the Austrian troops.
The proclamation then continues =
81 rely with full confidence also on your
manly character, which has already shown
itself on former occasions, and on your
sense of legality. This reliance facili-
tates the fuIflment Of my mission, the diff
fculties of which | do not fail 10 under
stand. These difficulties can, however,
be overcome by your quiet attitude and
your real patriotism. l will maintain
the autonomy Of your Administration,
which is SO splendidIy developed, and,
above all, | will allow the native-born
citizens of Holstein to share in the public
management of the affairs of the duchy.
81 promise you the conscientious ap-
plIcation OF the existing laws, the utmost
possible advancement of your moral and
material prosperity, energetic and rapid
execution of the duties of Government,
and the strict exercise of an impartial adj
miniStralion of the law. Holding aloof
from the exercise of any decided policy,
l am inspired solely by Tire deSire uf-rt-
naming a stranger to all party i~ntrigues,
of striving necessarily to develop the
prosperity of the country, and, strengthen
Ell by the confidence of the popula-
ton, of meeting the justly founded wish
es of the people"
CURIOUS ELECTRICAL EFFECTS PRoDU-
cED BY LIGHTNING.-A very strange pro-
perty has recently been observed in the
bodies OF persons, &c, struck by light
ning-the power of giving a strong cleo
trio shock when touched. It might be
supposed that the electricity would be
completely carried off by the conducting
power Of the human body, and especially
II that power were rendered more COM
plete by the presence of moisture. Such,
however, is not the case, and it is not
possible to explain the anomaly by means
of any principle furnished by the present
state Of our knowledge. The facts, how
ever, are ln~disputable, the two following
cases having been brought before the
Academy of Science, at lis sitting on the
10th Of July, by M. Boudin On the
3Oth of June, 1854, a man was killed by
lightning in the Jardin des PIantes, at
Paris, and the body remained exposed for
some time to a very heavy rain. When
the storm was over, two soldiers, who
attempted to take the dead body away.
received a VIOLENT shock the moment thew
touched it. The artillerymen, charged
with the removal of telegraph-posts,
which had been thrown down at lara,
IN Dalmatia, by q storm, on the slh of
September, 1858, at first, on laying hold
OF the telegraph-wires, two hours after
the lightning had ceased, experienced
slight shocks, and then were suddenly
thrown down, one of them having his
hands severely bu rned, and the other re-
manning without any sign Of life. Al
