Remarkable Instance Of
ss Petrifaetion.

About six years ago Mr.. Amos
Broughton died in Wayne county,
in this State, and was buried there.
After his death his widow and
children moved to Buskirk's
Bridge in this county, where they
now reside. A few days ago the
family of the deceased resolved to
bring the remains of the father.
from Wayneeounty, and have them,
deposited in a cemetery near their
residence. In furtherance of this
purpose the grave was opened and
the coffin exposed, but all ordinary
efforts to lift it from its position
proved Intellectual. The coffin lid.
was therefore removed, when it
was found that the body was in
the most perfect state of petrifac-
ton. 1t was covered with a dry
mould, which, when removed, re-
vealed surface almost as white.
and pure as marble. The body
showed not the least particle of de-
cay. Every feature and lineament
was perfectly preserved, and when.
stood upright it presented the ap-
pearance of afnely chiseled statue.
When Mr.. Broughton died he
weighed about 200 pounds, while
the remains had increased in
weight by petrifaction to 500
pounds. Before the body was in.
tered at Buskirk it was seen by
the family, friends and many 9th
ers there. 1t is the most perfect
and wonderful instance of petrifac-
ton of human remains that has
overcome to our knowledge.-7roy

A PRETTY IEc1DENT.-A very
pretty incident is related OF a ca.
nary bird by a Georgia paper
The door OF the birds, cage was oc.
casionally left open that he might
enjoy the freedom of the ROOM
One day he happened to light on
the mantl-eshelf whereon there
was a mirror. Here was a new
discovery Of the most profound In
terest. He gazed long and curl.
ously at himself, and came to the
conclusion that he had found a
mate. Going back to his cage be
selected a seed, from its box and
brought it in his bill as an offering
to the stranger. In vain the ca.
nary exerted himself to make bis
new found friend partake, and be.
coming weary of that tried anoth-
ter tack. Stepping back a few in
ches from the glass, he poured.forth
his sweetest notes, pausing now
and then for a reply. None came,
and moody and disgusted, he few
back to his perch, hanging his head
inshame and silence for. the rest
ofthe day. and although the door
unexpectedly opened, he refused
to come out again. 9a -

In Vanwert, Ohio, last week, as
the mail train rounded the curve
near the stave factory, in the west
part of town, while the train was
running at the rate Of twenty
miles an hour, Israel Adams, the
engineer, saw a child, about two
years old, on the track, not 200
yards ahead Of the train. He sig
nailed "down brakes" reversed his
engine, but on came the train
At this instant the child's danger
was discovered by its mother, who
was too far away to snatch it from
its impending fate. The hearts
OF. strong men stood still with hor-
ror, as, in the next second they ex-
pected to see the little one crushed
to atoms by the iron monster.
No one was in reach to call the
child's attention from its gambols
to its danger. On came the train,
twenty feet more, and human
being, yet SO young, is swept away
from earth forever. The engineer
springs from the engine and the
nea second has the child from
the track and is back at his post be-
fore the train has stopped. One
misstep, one lost move, and the
child would have been killed.

The Humboldt Medical Archires

The Humboldt Medical ArchareS
mentions several cases OF tetanus
(vulgarly called lockjaw) winch
had been successfully treated by a
local application of chlorotorm to
the entire spinal column by the
the means of cloth saturated with
il. and evaporation prevented by
covering the cloth with oiled six.
The application was made just at
the approach of paroxysm; AS a
result of the application the par
oxysm was averted, and the Pa,
tient fell into calm and natural
sleep. On feeling a returning
naroxysm the same application
was made and the paroxysm again
ayerted. For forty-eight hours

In Quitman county, Ga, last
week, on what is known as the
Teunille plantation, a negro had
been detailed to watch a pile of
corn that had been "growing small
er by degrees" without the con-
sent of the owners. Near the
hour when 'sgraveyards yawn,"
the negro discovered something
near the cereal, and hailed. Re-
ceiving no reply, and the object
moving off, he fired three shots at
the spectre from we'll loaded re-
volver, and the third one brought
down the thief and proved almost
instantly fatal. The body was
recognized as James Stewart, .

A New Wonder.

At Lexington, a few days since
we were invited to the gardeR OF
Captain Moore to examine what
our friend, Colonel Werth, would
call an 'impossibility" in the form
of an apple growing on a grape
vine, not grated, nor budded, nor
any such thing, but simply an ap-
pie growing on the stem of the
vine. The apple, which is per-
feet in form emanates from the
vine at the foot of a leaf where
there would have been a bunch
of grapes had not the apple taken
its place. A close examination
revealed a remnant of the bloom
of the grape, at the point of union
of the fruit with the vine, and the
theory we formed was that the
grape was fertilized by the pollen
from an apple tree which over
shadows the vine; but the strange
part is, that apple pollen should
be received by grape stigmas.

FRUITS OF RADICAL Rule
Here are some of the fruits of
Radical rule in North Carolina:
In Fayetteville, a two-story
brick store, which rented since
the war for 1915 per annum, was
sold under the hammer for 81 ,050.
A dwelling which sold in other
days for $4,000, sold under Radi-
cal rule for 1854 so. A vacant
lot which rented under former
rule for $40 per acre, sold under
Radical rule for $40 per acre, and
would have gone lower, but was
desired by other parties whose
lands it joined. aF
