IN WINTER

Tie Wilkesbarre pa Record gives
an account of the discovery of u recluse
on the mountain, about five miles from
that city. \ party of sportsmen were
making their way through a dense
wood in search Of game when their
attention was attracted 70 a campfire,
but not a person was il sight, and the
camp had evidently been abandoned.
Near the fire was q heap of brush, and
q closer examination revealed the form
Of a man lying underneath, wrapped in
a blanket. He appeared angry at being
disturbed in his lonely retreat, but soon
became communicative, and consented
TO tell them how he came to take up his
abode in the wilderness. He was thirty
two years OF age, rather preposssssing
in appearance, and comfortably clad.
He would not divulge his name, but
said he was q native OF South Carolina,
and with his father and two brother
fought in the rebellion, all of them
being killed except himself. He had
travelled through the country for several
months past, and, being unable to find
employment, had decided to spend the
winter in the woods rather than become
q beggar. He had plenty of clothing,
ana said he was subsisting On crackers
and dry beef, at about fifteen cents a
day. He expects to leave winter quar-
tiers in March should he survive the ex-
posure with the thermometer at
fifteen below zero.

POWER Of IMAGINATION.

Our readers are probably familiar
with that story which relates the fate
OF a murderer, who, being hanged
badly hangeG-came to life again and
found himself upon a dissecting table.
So overcome was he by the horror Of
the situation that, after one moment of
breathless agony, lie left him. The
ma was slain by his own imagination.
Another instance Of this kind is afforded
by the experience Of a young married
woman, who dreamed that she would
die on the first anniversary OF her we'd
ding. To her husband and her rela-
tives she mentioned her strange dream
on several occasions, and it seemed TO
prey upon her mind. At last the dreaded
day came--the fifth of the month !; and
so impressed Was she that 1t would
prove her last upon earth. that she
actually made a present to II of her
friends OF u sum OF money wherewitE
to purchase mourning. Strange to say.
before midnight arrived the poor woman
was a corpse. A striking instance o.
the power of the imagination over the
human organism has attracted some at
tention in Paris. A poor Old Tatch7
maker, Frederick Stiebmann, WHO lived
in the Rue des Halles, has been the
prey of a singular delusion for the pas
few months. He imagined that his sou]
had passed from his body into a pei
culiar watch which he had ~inventedI
and upon which he had worked fo1
twenty years. son the day that my
watch stops" Stiebmann was wont I'd
