Marshall County Republican. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1856-1878, 1869-11-18
A Curious Case.

The New Orleans Republican tells the
following curious circumstance:
About week ago woman known as
Mstte Davis, living on Basin street, just
below Perdido, quietly crossed the road
from her house to the one opposite. then
apparently in as good health as usual She
had scarcely reached the door when her
former quiet manner changed INTO strange
actions. When spoken to by one of her
friends she did not reply, but apparently
exerted herself to intimate that something
was the matter. Barely able to move her
hand and cry in plaintive way, was the
extent of her ability. Her companions
kindly and gently removed the suf-
ferer to her own apartment, where she has
lain ever since, utterly unconscious. When
an investigation was er tered into by com
petent physicians, the discovery was made
that her five senses had deserted the frail
body. She has from that time remained
almost as corpse, but her cSmplexion in
dicates the presence of arsenic. Three at
tending physicians are somewhat in a
quandary. but are studying the case, and
making all due effort to restore her to con-
sciousness, If not TO health, Her pulse has
almost ceased to beat, and she has no,
tasted food since the attack. Her former
habits are represented as having been very
regular, not often leaving the house. and
never drinking liquors. Her previous his
tory is one somewhat romantic, but with
that we have nothing to do.

Sixteen Months without Food.


G. W. Lewis has handed US a well writ
ten translation Of letter from Wales,
which we haven't space to give in full, but
from which we condense the following sin
gular statements the truth Of which is
vouched for by the writer, Mr.. j. S. Grit
fiths, of Cincinnati, Ohio, with whom sever
al Of our readers are acquainted. He states
that he had just been to see young girl
named Sarah Jacobs, daughter of Evan
Jacobs, farmer residing at Llethrneuadd,
Llanfihangel yr- arth, Characteristic,
close to the village of New Inn, two miles
from Bencader, and twelve miles from
Carmarthen. She will be twelve years
old the 18th of next May, and is said to
have Hoed the last sixteen months without
eating or drinking. Her parents are,
members of the Congregational church,
and have six other children, two of whom
are older than Sarah, who is described as
very intellectual and beautiful. She sleeps
from twelve midnight till five A. NJ, and
passes the day in reading, and in reciting
psalms, ect. Her case has attracted con-
siderable notice and drawn many visitors.

For Attorney General---Hon. E. L.
Browne, of Waupaca.

In discussing the merits and presenting
the claims of the various candidates for
nominations on the Republican State tick
ct it is naturally expected that the ques.
ton of locality will have much to do in
determining the preference of those who
may have somewhat to say on the subject.
The Esprit of the press in each Con-
gressional District will be poured out for
the candidate living within such District,
and all claims, of proper nature, will
be considered by the Convention which
will be called in due time to place in NOM
ination candidates for the various Offices
to be filled at the November election.
With this premise, it will readily be
seen that it is with feeling of State pride,
and with sentiments of the highest per-
sonal regard for the man, united with an
appreciation Of his eminent fitness for the
office, that we present the name of Hon.
4. L. Browne, of Waupaca county, in the
Fifth Congressional District, for the office
Of Attorney General of Wisconsin.
Mr.. Browne is native of the State Of
New York, and when lad of Is came TO
the then territory of Wisconsin in 1916.
lie has since resided in this State, and
has been to a great extent identified with
its history, growth and prosperity. Uni
ting with the Republican party at its or
ganzation, he has continued working
member, ever loyal, and in the front
rank. He has been twice Cor thrice
elected to the State Senate, and in 1868
was chairman of the Judiciary Committee
of that body, position for which his ac-
knowledged ability as a lawyer rendered
him well qualified. His political sound
ness and legal accumen are only excelled
by his personal merits. Uniting an obi
cling disposition with an excellent address,
he has host of warm personal friends
throughout the State.
These, in !" BRIEF" are some Of the
"points" of the man who asks for, and
stands a very good chance to receive, the
nomination for the Office Of Attorney Gen
eral

BSg-The effect of the recent action of
the President and Congress on reconstruc.
ton, especially in Virginia, is said to be Of
the most cheering character. Letters from
Richmond say that it seems as if load of
depression had been lifted from the spirits
of the people, and that satisfaction with
the action of Congress, is well nigh unani-
nous, the only exceptions being some few
sullen reactionists who still harbor the
ghost of the rebellion, and spit on the flag.
Business is already reviving, as conse-
quence, and the doubt and uncertainty
which have been consequent upon their
chaotic condition being removed, people
are already beginning to forecast plans for
the future and preparations for largely
increased business activity. 1t is believed
that the material interests of the State will
be advanced many millions by this action
of Congress. Grant will be President o.
the whole country yet.

n@Considerable dissatisfaction exists
among leading Republicans in regard to
some of the nominations made by the Pres
ident of men for foreign missions, and it is
said that the Senate Committee on Foreign
Relations will request the President to re.
call some of the obnoxious names. 1t is
understood that some of the nominees are
not famous for personal integrity and dig
nifty of character; that others are not com.
plete masters of the spelling-book and OF
the art of English composition; that others
besides are not over distinguished for devo-
ton to the cause of loyalty that, at
least in one case, there are strong pro6a-
bilties that the nominee is not even nat
uralized citizen. An exchange says "there
appears strong disposition on the part OF
| the Senate to have the list undergo
thorough wedding, or, IN default OF thas
accomplishment, to make wholesale
slaughter of the nominations in executive
session. We are glad to discover the evil
dences of such resolution. We trust
this point will not be surrendered: Unless
we are willing to lose cast with foreign
nations, and stultify our dignity 10 our
own eyes, we must resort to our Iepresen,
tative men to fill our foreign missions. ,
Nor can the great and lasting interests
of the Republican party suffer such a StiS-
ma with safety. BY sending abroad such
swarm of ''little men" --some OF them
little in character as well as in capacity.
the administration would be laying itself
open to the most aggressive attacks and to
the most merited opprobrium. When II
might so easily fortify its position, ana
satisfy the reasonable expectations OF the
people, it is the very height of madness
and folly to thus tamper with the foreign
appointments. Weed out the lists OF ap-
pointments. Weed them out remorse-
lessly.'
