Mr.. William Whitehead, who resided
near Clayville, Ky, died in June, 1870.
Early in that year he made will, and
bequeathed the sum of $500 for the
purpose of moving the bodies Of the de-
ceased members Of his family, and to
improve the grounds, to Durying-
ground near the mouth of Beaver Creek.
The executor, Mr.. N. X. Whitehead,
proceeded to discharge his duties by
employing Mr.. John b. Hamilton to
remove them, improve the grounds,
and erect head and foot stones at their
graves. Among those to be removed
was child sf DR.. Win Curran of Clays-
vile. MIR. H. disinterred the child,
who was buried in a metallic case on
the 9th day of July, 1855, in the White
head burying-ground in Claysville, and
being unable to remove the screws in
the faoe-plate Of the case, was COM
PEELED to saw II of. Upon removing
the face-plate . sight was revealed that
struck them dumb with establishment.
Instead Of finding, as they expected,
few bones as the remains of
their household pet, they beheld,
as It were, sleeping infant.
The child looked as natural as life, and
was in perfect state of preservation
with the exception Of the nose, which
was gone. The doctor, being present,
Immediately carried it to his home.
This was, indeed, great curiosity, and
many Of the citizens of Claysville and
vicinity came to the doctors Office to
see the body. But the strangest part
is not told. The child, which was two
years old when it died, was very fond
Of flowers, and more especially Of the
damask rose, and when taken by its
grandmother, with whom it was a great
pet, it would 60 to this rose-bush.
When the child was dying its grand
mother pulled two damask rose buds,
not yet Dursted, gave them to the child,
and it died with them in its hand. After
the body for burial the rose
buds were placed upon its breast and
buried with it. When the face-plate
was removed from the case the roses
were not only in perfect state, but the
leaves were as green as ever, and in
stead Of being buds, as they we're when
placed upon the child's breast, had be-
come full-blown roses"

Nine. Adelina Patti, Marchioness Of
Caux, has had in her married life some
such experiences as have befallen other
great singers who accepted as husbands
titled or wealthy spendthrifts. She is
about to apply for judicial separation
from her husband, and it is understood
that the reason is that he spends, in
gambling and other extravagances or
vices, the money she earns by her tai
ents. The first husband OF Mile. Gar
cha, Malibran, was q rich New York
merchant, who, failing in business, be-
gan to spend her money and she left
him, marrying, after his death, DE
Beriot, the violinist. When Mile. Son.
tag, who was as great q celebrity rs
Patti has become, married the Count
Rossi, she retired from the stage. But
the Count gambled away her fortune,
and she was compelled TO resume her
profession to support herself, her chill
drcn, and even her husband Mile. Al
boni, the best Of all contraltos, was
married to the Italian Marquis Of Pc
poll, and he wasted her fortune so fast
that she got Judicial separation, and
as he has since died, she married lately
French gentleman. Other cases OF
prima-donnas welded to wasteful for
ure-hunters could be cited, but these
Of Malibran, Sontag, Alboni, and Patti
are the most distinguished, and Patti
need not be ashamed Of being in the
company in which she finds herself. --
