The new American Newspaper Directory OF
Geo. P. Rowell s. Co. is volume of more than
thousand pages, and undoubtedly the most
elaborate and complete work of the kind ever
issued. The arrangements Of the lists by
States and in alphabetical order, is such as to
make reference easy and besides there is
for.every town in which newspaper is pub
lished. statement of location, population,
lines of communication, and distinguishing
characteristics that is very valuable to all who
seek information of general nature. The
mechanical execution OF the work would be a
credit to any publisher in this country.
From business relations with Messrs. ROwell
e. Co., extending over about dozen years,
and tolerab!y familiar acquaintance with
their publications, we never have been in
clined to-and do not nOw-believe they are
actuated by any but the most commendable
motives in the compilation of their Directory
They have shown admirable independence
and determination in the prosecution of their
task; but as was inevitable they have incur

why and more whose attempts to swindle in
the matter of circulation have been to some
extent thwarted. In an age when knavery is

/ Professor Heidenhain has been doin!
some remarkable things at Breslau, Ger
1 many, ID the way Of hypnotism. This sci
enlist has been invited by the City Father
to repeat and explain ina rational way th'
marvellous =, I'D which Herr Hausen, thu
Danish 'magnetizer," had been producing
| in series of public exhibitions. Many
well-known persons had been hypnotize(
| by the Dane, the modus operlndi being fol
each to look fxedly at a bright glass but
ton held by himselfabout eight inches from
and above his eyes.
The subject hypnotized became insensi-
Bile to pins thrust into his hands, initiated
sounds and motions made before him, and
performed many strange and absurd an
tics. On awakening he was unconscious
as we'll as :ncredu1ous Of what he had done.
Professor Heidenhain declared his ability
to repeat all Of Hausen's performances, land
his doings have created a sensation among
the Germans The hypnotic state could
be brought on by slight, constant and uni
form or repeated irritation affecting the
eye, eal. or skin, ''passes' with the hand
the warmth of which is often effective at a
distance-a tuning fork, a watch, or q dis
tinct tixation point, with the thoughts oc-
cupied wholly by the object felt, seen or
hnard --zs-5=.s~ .-5zs-~--G
In one case, each OF five Polish soldiers
was told to hold 4 loud-ticking watch to
his ear and listen intently. In five min
utes two Of them had fallenintoa a profound
cataleptic sleep, and became insenslbie to
pain. On awakening, they declared that
they had not been asleep. A constant
touch on the back Of the neck made some
subjects perfect initiative machines, repro
ducing exactly every word, look and mo-
ton of the person on whom the attention
was fixed. AS soon as the finger was taken
from the neck the repetition stopped imme-
tiately, but stranger still, Professor Held
enElain and his colleagues succeeded with
some subjects in hypnotizing one-half Of
the brain and body, while the other half
remained normal. One side Of the face
would smile, while the other side remained
IN cataleptic state, One arm
and leg could be moved at will, but not
the others One eye would see distinctly,
while the other could see imperfectly on
not at ali.
Professor Hetdenlain's experiments
were made only with men, and he succeed
ed with about one subject in twelve. The
first time was found to be the most difficult
to hypnotize a subject. After the first
time some grew more sensitive to the in
lIuence, while others finally lost the power
of being affected. Some acquired the fac
ulty of hypotnizing themselves. Profes-
sor Heidenhain maintains that the produce
ton Of hypotnism is not injurious to the
subject. The Professors brother was hyp-
Noticed on an average two OF three times d
day for two months and claims to be none
the worse for it.

1t has been strongly doubted whether
Joan of Arc ever suffered the punishment
that has made her a martyr, though details
of her execution and last moments grace
the civic records Of Rouen. Several books
have been published discussing the ques-
ton. A Belgian lawyer is the author Of
one of these. He contends that the histo-
rians-who have done nothing but copy
each other III the narratives Of her death
err exceedingly i'll saying that it took place
on the last day of May, 1873, the fact being
that she wins alive and well many years
after that date. There are good grounds.
too, for believing that the pretty tale of
Abelard and Heloise is nothing but pure
fiction.
Nobody has yet unriddloa the mystery
of the Man in the Iron Mask, and nobody
seems likely to do so, while the identity OF
the writer of the ''Junius" letters is as fa1
from being settled as. ever. These are two
insoluble enigmas, impenetGable mysteries
that battle solution, and about which, per-
haps, the public has become tired Of sur
prises.
An extremely witty and characteristic
anecdote told Of Lord Beaconsfcld will
bear repetition. An adherent from very
distant county brought his two sons to the
then Mr.. Disraei, and asked him to give
them word Of advice on their introduc-
ton into life 'sNever try to ascertain,

where Booth Is Buried.

The Washington correspondent of the
Buffalo Commercial writes: 1t was only
after some patient inquiry that ! could as
certain the facts. which are Interesting,
and so far as know are yet unpublished.
Boo tn died, DIS Will be remembered, in a
barn in Maryland, from Il wound received
from the muslSet Of Boston Corhett. His
body WAS brought 10 Washington, and af-
ter having been identified by the court
martial before which his fellow-conspira-
tors were tried, was dissectel by the sur
geon-general of the army, The brain and
heart aud some other parts Of the body
were preserved in alcohol, and are HOW on
exhibition in the medical museum of the
surgeon-general's Office. The building in
which the assassination occurred was
Ford's theatre. The government confis-
Gated it. but afterward Ford was paid its
full value, and it has since been used as
the headquarters OF the medical crops Of
the army The brain and heart of Booth
are in jars, standing in Il case that is Still
ated very near the @crnal scene Of the
assassination.
After the surgeon had done with Booths
body it was buried in gaave in the ar
senal grounds. Onif hnlf-a-dozen persons
knew the exact spot, which was unnark-
| ed. In 1867 Edwin Booth, the actor, sent
Mr.. Weaver the sexton Of Ghrist's Church,
Baltimore, to Washington, with a request
that the sen1ains Of his brother might be
taken up and removed 70 the family burial
place. After come delay, thc request vas
granted by President Johnston. who was
finally appealed to, and Ar. Weaver took
the body to the cemetery in Baltimore and
buried il beside t!it elder Booth and others
Of ttle family. Ihe removal was conduct
ed with great secrecy, ana was concealed
from Secretary stanton: who hali refused
10 give his consent.
