A Woman instantly Struck Dumb,

The Leavensworth (Kan.) Times Of the
f22d ult,, relates the following: GA re-
narkable occurrence took place in Salt
Creek Valley day before yesterday. Mrs.
Chapman, wife Of Samuel Chapman, of
Pleasant Ridge, went into the pasture ad-
joining the house for the purpose Of catch
ing a horse whichshe desired to drive to
town with. In CESS than hah an hour
she was seen making her way back to the
house waving her arms, above her head,
and making all sorts of ludicrous gestures.
Her husband, who was standing on the
porch, thought it was remarkably strange
that Ibis wife, ordinarily so staid and dig
nified, should be acting so strangely, but
took ne further notice of her, supposing
she was making fun Of him. But when
she finaky reached the house very serious
matter'was developed, and all the strange
actions fully explained. The woman had
by some eUnaccountable nseans been strucl,
speechless, and has not up to last accounts,
been able to speak a word to make known
the cause Of her misfortune It is the gen
eral opinion that the spell was either
brought on ~ fit or some terrible fright,
which the woman received while in the
pasture, and the nature Of which her
friends have as get been unable TO learn. .
