"BURIED ALIvE."-A correspondent of the
Cincinnati Commercial, who has been reading
some of the late stories of persons who were
supposed to have been buried alive, dscredits
them all. He accounts for the evidences of
motion of the bodies in such cases as the effeot
of iron cofins. He says, referring to recent
case: ra- H
The corpse had been encased in an iron cof-
I'm, called casket made air-tight. The conse-
quence is that the gases generated by the
decaying body produce the most frightful dis
figuration and in some instances shiver the
glass over the face. know all about this, for
had a case come under my immediate OBJ
servation, the death of a friend in the coun-
try, caused by an accident, so sudden and un-
expected that few of the friends and relatives
could be called to the funeral within the ordi-
nary time incident to such occasions. An
iron coffin was produced, the body placed in it,
and the lid sealed and screwed down in the
usual manner, with thick glass plate over
the head. To those who watched the loved
| face through tears there soon appeared a sim
gular change; the veins of the forehead began
to swell, and soon stood cut like cords. Then
the face began to swell, and soon the eyes partly
opened and the lips fell apart, giving to the
face wrathful, Mortified expression that was
painful to look upon. These changes contin-
ed until the dead seemed to be striving to
breathe, and speak, and strange noises were
nearO luSlue. w omen Snrlekeu ana ldlnIeu,
and at last cloth was thrown over the glass,
and persons were forbid looking in. During
the night of the second day lifI remember cor
rectly), an explosion occurred, accompanied
by the sound OF broken glass, and it was found
that the plate over the face was shivered and
the room filled with the most sickening stencil
The dead body was horrible TO look at, and it
required no active stretch of the imagination
to believe that life had returned and strug-
gle ended
doubt whether one could return to life
| from the counterfeit condition that had been
| taken for death, while sealed up in one Of
| these iron cases. Such return must, of course,
| be slow, uncertain and feeble. How long the
| air of the coffin would continue pure enough
to strengthen the lungs, so as to start the Cir
| culatioG, am not prepared to say. But L
should think not long; certainly not su T.
| cient length of time to enable the subject
buried alive to make much of struggle.

ing the frequency with which The distin-

Treasurer of the corporation, employs
the words estimated, and "AbOut" in the
reports with which he favor ns oeeSsion'

is true, for no one after reading them can
say how much our city debt ia. In his
"reporl" which we published yesterday,
he tells lis thst the amount of checks issu-
cd as collateral il abou; SAC, 1000. Why
cannot he tell us the exact amount, and
WHY will not the Finance committee report
to whom these checks are issued, and On
what terms the money is borrowed2 The
fact is, most Of the corporation

their miscellaneous account, and most
of the rascalits in this collateral" bust

thus there is = good thing all around the

NevG within the recollection of the
Oldest ifhabitant, says the Cleveland, Eas
Tenn, Bsqnner, have the crops looked more
promising in this section than they do
the present season. The wheat prospect
has no parallel in the past, and if the pre-
sent faVoring weather continues, that crop
will be abundant. Young corn looks well
and thrifty, and is growing fnelyvthe
frat planting has received its first blowing
the stand is very good. The hay crop
also promises a foe yield. Garden vege-
tables look thrifty and are doing well.
The peach crop is an entire failure, while
there will be about a half crop of apples
We have some cherries and plumbs, but
by no means an average yield of these
fruits.
