GS- TnE Losr MAN HEARD FRoM.
We learn from late number of the
GrOCnbrier Independent that It Is the
impression there that q man named
Cassady was murdered near Lcwisburg
afcw days ago, and his body thrown
into the river. From some clothing
found under q log near tho
river, aud tho papers found therein, il
was a,certained that the mans name
was 0uSIady,-that DO came from
Lewis county-tllat no had purobaSod
land in Nicholas from Mr.. John w,
oiell-just as we described In our mar.
sgpph referring to his disappoarance
from Nicholas. Tho body ofa man
was seen floating in tho river bv Some ,,,,1
boys; but the high waters carried Il
of before they could secure assistance,
So, for the present, we presume, hi, 4
tho last Of Mr.. Cassidy. 'souiro
Wooftor has made diligcnt iRquiryi bul
so Ear 10 has failed to hear Of any rela.
tiyOs Of tho missing man.

Some time ago tie Academy of
Sciences in Paris offered a prize of
"a, 600 for some simple and positive sign
of death, which any non-professional
person could understand and apply.
Such test, suggested in Virchow's
Archiu, is considered very satisfactory
by the British medical press. 1t con-
sists in tying string firmly round the
finger of the supposed corpse if the
blood circulates in the least in which
event death has not taken place-the
whole finger will swell and turn blush
red 1t is conceivable that such test
would be very useful in cases of drown
ing and asphyxia. 1t may be legitimate
to cite a case which occurred not long
ago at Brussels. A drunken man fell
into a canal, and remained SO long i'm
mersed that very little hope was enter
tanned of his recovery. He was to all
appearance corpse. DIR. Joux, physi-
clan to the police, to whom application
is made in such cases, did not share the
convictions of the bystanders, and, hav-
ing used the most energetic means Of
restoration for three hours, ended by
applying hot iron to the patient, who
instantly moved slightly. The former
measures were reverted to, and the sup
posed corpse stood up in less than half
an hour, branded, indeed, but none the
worse for the accident.
