WILKEsBARRE, Pa, August 10.-The
sequel to the NJ Mysterious disappearance
Of a child in this city is now being de-
veloped, and the facts, as they come to
light transcend in some particulars the
story of the loss Of Charley Ross. It is
another illustration of the fact that,
while circumstantial evidence may be
overwhelming, innocence may yet pre-
vail During the term Of Mayor Kear-
ney of Will1esbarre (now deceased, J,
several years ago. lovely child, 3 years
Of age, strangely disappeared from it's
parents home on Brewery Hill The
mother was distracted and seemed to
support an accusation of the neighbors
that the father, Morgan Thomas, had
murdered it in order to rid himself of the
responsibility Of its maintenance.
Mayor Kearney at once set himself
about ferreting out the matter, put his
force of detectives upon the suspected
parents track, and privately informed
his immediate friends that he was CON
vinced of the guilt of the father, and
would soon hang him for a cruel murder
He believed that he had in his possession
sufficient evidence to more than substan-
tiate the story told by the neighbors and
by himself that the parent had murdered
his child and successfully disposed of the
corpse. The father at first Indignantly
repelled the charge. His character un-
til this time had been untarnished. When
he discovered, however that the wife of his
bosom appeared to entertain q like sus-
plclon, he gave away to apparent remorse
bordering on insanity. In the meantime
the Mayor was active, and was formulat-
ing q theory sustained by an almost in
invincible train Of evidence tending to
show the guilt Of the PROSTATE parenr-
The Mayor was truly sincere in his con-
victions, but ere he had completed his in
vestigation he was suddenly struck down
by death.
Years have passed by and the circum-
stance has long since ceased to be a theme
OF wondement. A few weeks since ped
der, an old acquaintance Of the family
to which the missing infant belonged
chanced to be travelling i'll the vicinity Of
Tunkhannock, in the adjoining county,
and discovered the long lost child. He at
once conveyed the intelligence to the
parent in Wilkesbarre, and they repair
ed to the place named and fully indenti-
ed it, but the people having it in charge
refused to give it up. The parents re-
turned to Wilkesbarre, and, procuring a
warrant from Alderman D0nohue are
now in quest of their child Efforts will
be made to punish the abductors.

CAUSES OF SUDDEN DEATH.-Very
few Of the sudden deaths which are said
to arise from diseases of the heart do
really arise from this cause. To ascer-
tain the real original of the sudden deaths
an experiment was tried and reported to
scientific congress at Strasburg. Sixty
six cases Of sudden deaths were made the
subject of a thorough post mortem exam
nation. In these cases only two were
found who died from disease of the heart.
Nine out Of sixty-six had died from apo
plexy, while there were forty-six cases of
congestion of the lungs; that is, the lungs
were SO full of blood that they could not
work, not being room euough for sufi-
cient amount of air to support life. The
causes that produce congestion of the
lungs are: cold feet, tight clothes, cos
tive bowels, sitting still unlil chilled, af-
ter being warmed with labor or rapid
walk, going too suddenly from close
room into the air, especially after speak
ing, too hasty walking, or running to
catch the train, &C. These causes of
sudden death being known, an avoidance
of them serve to lengthen many valuable
lives, which would otherwise be lost un-
der the verdict Of heart disease This
disease is supposed to be inevitable and
incurable; hence many may not take the
pains they would to avoid sudden death,
if they knew it lay in their power.
