Early ON the morning of March 11th.

Early on the morning of March I1th, a
singular and mysterious affair occurred
at Warrington, England, in connection
with the death of a man named Gibson, a
discharged soldier. About half-past 3
O'Clock he went TO the bake-house of MIR.
Pemberton, and asked the baker in
charge, named Peter Knowles, if he
might be allowed to warm himself. His
request was complied with, and Knowles
left Gibson warming himself in front OF
the oven, the gas being lighted at the
time. Knowles returned in about ten
minutes, but Gibson was nowhere to be
seen. His coat and waistcoat were ly-
ing on the kneading' table. Upon cane
fully searching the bake-house they
found that Gibson had fallen into the
trough in which the sponge was set. and
that he was completely covered in the
soft and yielding dough. The body was
pulled out, but life was quite extinct, the
deceased having no doubt been immedi-
ately sutfocated by inhaling the earbonic
acid gas generated in the process of fer
mentation, and the soft dough stopping
his mouth and nostrils. The supposition
that the deceased committed suicide is
by the fact OF his taking off
his coat and waistcoat and placing them
on the kneading table.

On the wall over the bed of a dying
woman in Cohoes, N. Y, a cross ap-
peared. 1t began with a mere outline
deepened in cslor until the woman died,
and then faded. She saw it, and super.
stitiously regarded it as a premonition
Of death. The neighborhood was in
tensely excited, and hundreds went to
see the cross. AT length matter of fact
newspaper reporter investigated, and
learned that leak in the root had let
water into the plastering, the discolora-
tion taking the significant shape bv
chance, and that when the rain storm
was over the cross faded. 1t is probable
that fright aggravated the woman's dis.
ease and killed her.

An English lady-pickpocket-Miss
Clay, alias Spencer, alias Wilson-was
some little time ago sentenced in Paris
to three years. Imprisonment. In the
female penitentiary Of st. Lazare her
conductis described as exemplary. She
knelt down devotedly at mass, very
frequently communicated, and so gained
the confidence of the Sisters of Charity
in charge that, alter an unusually short
period Of probation, she was allowed the
run of the prison without being watched.
Availing herself of this privilege she
slipped into one of the Sisters cells, and
speedily dressing herself in the costume
of nun, walked straight out into the
street, the warders saluting her as she
passed. She was not missed till three
hours after her escape, and the efforts of
the police to apprehend her have been
hitherto unsuccessful. Being well known
to her countrymen of the light-fnger ira
terRity domiciled in Paris, it is supposed
that their gallantry has found means to
send her TO London.
