EXECUTIVE CHAMBER, HARRISBURG, Feb. 81, 1871.
" DIR. SCuALLESBEEGER:
Dear Sar:-I regard your Antidote
as public benefaction.
In the fall of 1851, it proved itself in my case,
well in many others that came under my observa-
ton a most invaluable remedy for Fever and Ague,
only prompt and powerful in curing the disease,
but singulary pleasant and beneficial in its general
effects upon the system"

time and again been written of, and if any
are capable of giving their personal experience
of such an occurrence clearly, Captain Mills
can do SO, for he was so nearly drowned that
lie must have known all but the final gasp of
death
How narrowly he escaped being buried
alive may be imagined from the fact that up
to the time Of opening the box there was no
idea that he lived Even then he might have
been sent to his grave had not the peculiar
flush upon his face attracted attention. One
may well sliudder, remembering how difficult
it sometimes is to tell the living from the
dead, and that the imagination can picture
nothing more horrible than breathing man
consigned to tomb. We have heard of other
incidents where the living have been all but
buried, and indeed buried, but we do not call
to mind a case as wonderful as this in all its
details. AS bearing upon the affair, the in
tense cold about March IL should be remem-
bered

A MIRACULOUS EscAPE-A SUPPOSED
CORPSE COMES no LIFE.-The Philadelphia
Press of Saturday says The fertile imagna-
ton of the most sensational novelist or play
wright seldom produces anything at all
probable which has not its parallel in strict
truth. We are now to tell story of three
cities, Lewes (Delaware), Philadelphia, and
New York, which would be incredible were it
not that our facts are obtained from wholly
trustworthy sources. On the 18th of last
month (Marcll, Captain S. II. Mills, of New
York city, was drowned or, as it has since
turned out, merely supposed to be drowned,
ut Lewes, Del He fell overheard from his
schooner. Upon the body being recovered,
and after every attempt to restore life had
failed, it was placed in a coffin, and then again
in the usual outer box, and shipped by Adams
Express to the friends of the unfortunate man
in New York city.
1t remained in Philadelphia from p. NJ.
to / A. NJ. Upon its arrival in New York the
certificate of the Lewes, Del, doctor was
discovered TO be somewhat informal, and the
advice of the Board of Health was asked. 1t

when this was done the man was found to be
alive. The best medical aid was Immediately
called in, and it was ere long possible to re-
move the captain with safety to the Bellevue
Hospital, where he now is He is not only
doing well, but there is every probability of
his speedy recovery. How he existed confined
within these airless cases passes comprehen-
sion. He was boxed up for thirty-tiSe holrs
length of time very few persons would care
to attempt existence merely without food or
drink.
He will live to tell his strange experience.
The would-be novelist viii find here mine.
Was he unconscious the while, or was the
terrible fate which seemed inevitable present
to his understanding 4? are questions it would
be interesting to have answered. We trust
that in mercy it was not permitted him to
know aught until his awakening, for if he was
conscious during his journey, the mental tor
ture may have SO worked upon him that he
will live his term with darkened mind. His
ease is certainly most extraordinary one, and
should have the examination of medical ex-
perts. Doubtless the officers of the Adams
Express Office in this city will give any addi-
tonal information to those who wish to study
and are capable Of studying the affair. The
beauty and pleasure of death by drowning has
