Marrow Escape from the Grave
Case Of Suspended Animation.

The Cleveland Paindea1cr tells tho
following remarkable story Off case which
II says happened in that city:
Some six weeks ago young lady was
residing on Lorain street, Miss Ellen Il.
White, was taken i'll by what was regard.
cd by her physicians az typhoid fever.
For four weeks her condition alternated
from better 10 worse, when about two
weeks since sEo had severe relapse,
sinking gradually until It was thought
she had died, and she was pronounced
dead by her physicians, her mother alone
refusing TO believe her dead. Prepare.
tions were made for her funeral, the
mother all the time Insisting that her
daughter was alive. She was TO have
been buried on Sunday last, and her mar.
row escape from the grave is thus relat.
ed: On Saturday, when one Of the
neighbors and the mother were standing
by the side Of the supposed corpse, the
door, which had been left open, blew
shut with loud noise, which had the CT.
feet of so acting up9n the girl as to
bring her to, and set her life blood in
motion. She sprang up in bed, and
throwing her arms around her mothers
neck wept tears Of joy over her escape
from the horrid cath Of being buried
alive. The young lady described her
feelings during her trance from which IL
appears she fully realized all that was go.
ing on, but her will was powcrless. Her
situation appears TO have been one Of
perfect happiness, except when the
thought of be ng buried alive possessed
her.

POETRY.
" NOW / LAY ME- DOWN TO SLEEP

In the quiet nursery chambers,
Snowy pillows yet nnpresscdj
See the forms OF little children,
Kneeling, white -robed for their rest.
All 10 quiet nursery chambers,
While the dusky ahadows creep,
Hear the voices of tho children
"Now lay me down TO Sleep"
In the meadow and the mountain
Calmly shine the winter stars;
But AcrOss the glistening l0wlnnds
Slant the moonlighes silver bars,
In the silene. and the darkness
Darkness growing still more deep,
Listen to the little children
Praying God their souls to keep.
eff We die" so pray the children.
And the mother's head droops low,
Zone from out her fold Is sleeping
Deep beneath the winters snow.
"Take our souls" and past the easement
Fits a gieam of crystal light.
Like the trailing Of His garments
Walking evermore in white.
Little souls that stand expeetant
Listening at the gates OF life,
Hearing TAR away the murmur
or the tunuit aud the strife;
we, VINO hght otnenth tnosc ohuneFsg
Meeting ranks of foemen there,
Find q deeper, broader meaning
In your simple vesper prayer.
When your hands shall grasp the standard,
Which. to-day. you watch from far.
When your deeds shall shape the conflict
In this universal war,
Pray 10 Him, the God OF battles,
Whose strong eyes can neyet sleep,
in the warning Of temptation.
Firm and true your soul 10 keep.
When the combat ends. aud owly
Clears the smoke from cut the skies,
When. far down the purple distance,
All the n0ise 0f battle dies:
When the last nights solemn shadows,
Settle dawn on ynu and nie.
May the Lave that never failcth,
Take our souls etcruniiy.

DAILY RELIGIoN.-Mr. spurgeon
says of the manner in which true religion
manIfests itself in daily life:
1 have no faith in that woman who
talks of grace and glory abroad, and uses
no soap at homo. Let the buttons be on
the shirts, let the children's socks be
mended, let the roast mutton be done to
a turn, let the house be neat as a new pin,
let the husbands buttons be sewcd on,
aud the home be happy as home can be
aud thun, when the cannon balls, and the
marbles. and even the grains OF sand, are
all in the box. even then there will be
room for those little doeds of love and
faith which, in my Masters name, ! seek
Of you who lore his appearing. Serve
God by doing common actions in heaven
y spirit, and then, if your daily calling
only leaves you cracks and crovioes Of
times, fiji these up with holy services.

serious. Greece Is preparing for war The
sympathy Of Russia with Greece and with the
Christians of Turkey is already SO pronounced
that there can be no doubt as to the tendency
OF Russian sentiment 1t does not mean mo-
thing that Russia has ordered her flag to be
used for Grecian purposes. 1t grants TO
Greeks the favor that the Western Powers
have denied. European war is, therefore,
rendered the more a possibility. No power in
Europe has more to gain by peace and less to
gain by war than Prussia. War creates dan
gers and involves heavy expenses. Peace has
for Prussia, in particular, easy and certain
conquests. Count Bismark knows the fact,
and, as it appears, is not slow to make use Of
the opportunity to advance the cause with
which his name must be lastingly associated.
Austria and Italy are tied up by their debts
and their dangers, and hence they readily side
with Prussia.
This Conference, in fact, means to us on
this side two things. 1t means, first of all,
that, unless the great powers interpose to pre-
vent it, the difficulty between Turkey and
Greece contains within it the germs of Eu-
ropean war. 1t means, secondly, that the
honor of settling European difficulties shall
no longer belong exclusively to Paris and to
the Emperor Napoleon. In other words, 1t
proves that just as Bismsrk played off Nspo-
leon on the nstionalities question and made
that question as much his own as Napoleon's,
so does he now intend to play off France on
what we may call the Paris question, and
make Berlin, SO far as he can, the Paris of the
future.
What will Napoleon do To him this pro-
posal must be surprise. In his estimation
he and Paris, not Clarendon and London, not
Bsmark and Berlin, ought to have settled
this fresh Eastern difficulty. What will Ma
poleon doP He does not want war; he does
not, he cannot object to a congress. II a
congress is good in ITSELF it ought to be as
good in Berlin as in Paris. 1t is, after all, a
new phase of the question. 1t begets new diff
fculties, while it does not mitigate the severe
character of the old. How the affair will end
it is hard to say. Meanwhile it is not easy to
resist the conviction that Bismark has stolen
march on Napoleon, and that Prussia and
Russia have taken the role of France.

How to Stop the Leaks.

From, 0e N. Y. Tribune.
The clouds which still overcast our national
sky are mainly financial; and General Grants 8
administration will prove a triumph or a fail
ure according as it shall demonstrate ability
or inability to reduce the burden of the national
debt. Its first need, therefore, is retrenchment
in public expenditure; but its second, and
scarcely inferior, is to enhance the national
income by putting an end to the gigantic
frauds which have for years reduced the reve-
nue. by from fifty to one hundred and fifty
millions per annum.
How shall this be done?
We expect something from the passage of
Mr.. Sohencks general bill, and something more
from general infusion of honesty and vigor
into the service consequent on the accession Of
General Grant. But there is more specific
means of operating to this end, which seems
to us worthy of consideration. Here is its
outline
Assuming that frst-rate Secretary of the
Treasury is assisted by an equally fit Commits
sioner of Internal Revenue, we hold that the
proper district officers should be held account
able for the success or failure of their efforts
to assess and collect the internal revenue after
this fashion,
Brown, we will suppose, is assessor OF q
specified district and Jones collector. The
Commissioner should give them fair notice
that they must secure to the Government the
internal revenue rightfully collectable from
that district, or must give place to successors.
Each, when appointed, should be distinctly
told, "The fair, honest cost of whisky in your
district is (say) sl'25 per gallon; we shall
keep strict watch over it, and whenever we
find any selling therein for Sl'10 or less, we
shall want your Office for another man." So
of tobacco; so of other heavily taxed articles.
II person caunot collect the revenue, that is
reason enough for letting some one else try in
his stead. "Augers that won't bore'' are out
of place in such service; they must give
place to such as will. Only let the assessor
and collector know that, whenever the prices
current prove them unable to do the work for
which they are paid, they must get out, and
what are now moral imposslbilities will soon
sink into mere difficulties, and then fade away
altogether. At all events, we trust this plan
will receive fair consideration.

A European Conference.

From the ~. Y. Tribune
II may now be regarded as certain that the
Eastern complication will, for the present, not
lead to war. The Czar of Russia, supported
by the King of Prussia, has proposed to the
other great powers the holding of a European
Conference for pacific solution of the intri-
cate question, and the proposition is said to
have been received with general favor, and to
be sure of execution. The frequent meeting
of European conferences for settling difficult
international questions of this kind is one of
the most hopeful features OF the recent history
Of Europe. They have more than once
averted bloody wars, and are creating gene
raj disposition, before rushing to war, to make
the utmost efforts for peaceful compromise.
With regard to the Turkish question, Euro
pean conference is likely TO recommend to the
Turks new concessions in favor of the Chris
tians. A redress OF all or even Of the princi-
pal. grievances of the Christian subjects of the
Porte is out of the question, as it would in
vOlve dissolution OF the Turkish empire, to
which for the present France and Austria
would refuse to give their CONSENT The con-
ference, therefore, hile it is likely to effect a
postpopement of hostilities, cannot be ex-
pected to find au Efficient remedy for the de-
cline of the Turkish rule

were together, and in death twas not deemed
advisable to separate them so the white aud
black, loved and loving, guerilla and damsel
were dropped in one hole together. Had this
been before election, it would have been put
down as q Ku -Klux outraged Now folks can
cay that the ''spirit" was too willing, and the
flesh was weak For In such an hour as you
think not, no man, nor woman, can stand too
much bed-bug poison. They have gone.
