Tue newspapers contain every once In a
while sensational accounts Of the exhuma-
ton Of bodies that give what is called IN.
mistakable evidence OF having been buried
alive. An exchange in considering this
matter at length says: Change in position
OF the corpse, often asserted to be proof OF
premature interment, usually results from
chemical changes, especially from gases
generated by decomposition. Some 1.-THE
Pennsylvania journals have lately pub.
lisheda high-colored, horrible narrative Of
the unquestionable revival Of q man who
had been entombed three days at a town
OF that State. Doubt Of his death having
been excited, the grave was opened, and
it was shown, according to the local
chroniclers, that he had fought desperately
for his life, imprints OF his nails being
visible on the lining Of the coffin, in some
places torn to shreds. This needs
confirmation. It has in all probability,
been much exaggerated and warmly
hued with Imagination. While such
things have happened, and may
still happen, they are OF the rarcst occur.
renee Winslow, the celebrated anatomist,
is said to have had two narrow escapes
from burial alive, and 10 have published,
in consequence, a treatise on the signs OF
death. Bouchut, Michel Levy, and other
physicians have also expressed their views
On the subject; but all testimony procur.
able establishes the fact that burial alive
hardly ever takes place in these times. In
%corroboration of this, many German cities
have in their cemeteries mortuary houses,
in which the dead are kept some days be-
fore final interment, the bell-pull being so
arranged that the slightest motion OF the
body would sound an alarm. So far these
precautions have been s~uperauous. In
more than forty years not one supposed
to-becorpse has proved to be anything else.

RECENTLY reference was made to the
