A RENARKABLE MAN.
Death Of . Singular Parsonage In
Warrington C0unsy-Living Under
Difficulties.

Death Of . Singular Parsonage IN
Warrington C0unty-Living Under
Dimeulties. .-.
From a Washington county paper we
obtain the following account OF rather
remarkable man, Mr.. William W.
Hawthorn, who died at his residence
in Millsborough, the county mentioned,
few days ago. At the age of about
thirteen he was afflicted with rheuma-
tism, which affected his extremities 80
seriously az to deprive him Of the use
of both legs and also bis
right arm. His feet were drawn
up against the thighs, and his
right arm and hand contorted into every
thing but natural position. The flesh
on these limbs gradually shriveled
away, while his head and body con-
tinued to grow into all the proportions
of a well developed man. For the
purpose of locomotion he was placed
in a box, in which, constantly lying on
his back, he attended to all kinds OF
business for the last SIXTY years. He
acquired common English education,
and taught school for q number OF
years, and at the time Of his death was
serving his seventh term as a justice OF
the peace, having acted in that capacity
for nearly thirty-fve years. He used
the pen with his left hand and wrote a
very accurate aud legible hand. In
1853 he was awarded contract for car
rying the United States mail on the
route between Pittsburgh and Waynes-
burg, and also another route, which we
have forgotten, and at the expiration Of
the first term he was awarded the con.
tract for a second term. He kept a
number OF horses and faithful employees,
but hesuperintended the whole business
himself, frequently driving in a one
horse spring wagon to Pittsburgh,
Washington and Waynesburg, with
only small boy for company.
At the age Of % or %, he eloped with
a Miss Wilson, and was married with
out the consent Of her friends, but she
being of suitable age for matrimony, no
trouble ensued. His wife proved to be
a valuable helpmate for a man in his
peculiar situation, and as time sped
away she bore him twelve or thirteen
children. He possessed an iron will,
and almost an iron constitution, and
by dint of indomitable energy and
economy, he accumulated at vari-
Gus times quite a respectable amount
of property. Compelled, as be was,
to remain continually in a recumbent
position, he wrote with his paper on a
small board placed across his breast !;
and by the necessary habit OF keeping
his head raised upward and foroard,
the muscles OF his neck acquired suf,
fc;ent strength to enable him to hold
his head in that situation for hours
without apparent fatigue. Being
native of Washington county, and for
many years intermixed with a very
large amount of public business, he will
be long remembered as one of the most
remarkable men OF the day.

concerts have been appreciated where they
have been presented we append the following
notice, taken from the Baltimore Go-elt OF
yesterday -
The Grand Opera House was filled last even
ing with a fashionable and critically appreci-
alive audience. The throng which had gath
cred attracted by the distinguished name of
Patti, was a sure proof that Baltimore still re-
tains, in high degree, that devotion to music
for which we have so long been noted.
Carlotta Patti has, in her few years abs e1oc
greatly improved in style, and now is dcserv-
cdly ranked as one of the most popular of con-
cert singers !; her voice, which is naturally ad-
mi,ablc, has strengthened since her last visit
| the improvement being most noticeable in the
medium register, and yet the charming purity
| of her upper notes is well preserved. She has
moderated her fire and brilliancy, but has
more than gained in her emotional qualities,
| and now is equal to the most diverse style OF
music-as witness the manner in which she
sang the cncorcs in each case the opposite In
all respect 10 the numbers on the programme
Miss Carey S voice easily Won her favor here
and when we say She, too, has improved it will
readily explain the most flattering reception
with which she was greeted, Il" of her num-
bers being warmly cncOred.
