The Russellville Democrat., 1880-05-27

A very large bulk of the 4,2S4,. S85 democrats who voted for MT. Tilden in 1876 have seen no reason to change their opinion, and as the democratic leaders then promised that if they would submit to be rob. bed of their choice in an uncenstitu. tional way for the sake of peace they should have an opportunity to prove in 1880 that they did alect MT. Til. den in 1876, they now demand that the chance be afforded them. Let MT. Tildeu be c-nominated at Gin. cinnati, and an enthusiasm never be- fore equallsd will burst up in the hearts of the rank and file of the party.

A Singular Disease.


 MuLERsBURe, March 29.-Miss Lizzie Col lins of this place, fifteen years of age, was taken i'll on January 1 with some trouble con- nected with the spine. The nerves in all parts of her body are super sensitive, so much so that the pressure of one's hand is excruciatingly painful. Her lungs, heart, etc., are normally healthy, and she has good ap- petite. Some days the nerves of her body are less sensitive than on others and she is allowed to move about the house on crutches About six weeks ago strange phenomena in connection with the disease began to mani fest themselves. Atirregular intervals, some times in the morning, but generally in the early evening, the girl to all appearances falls asleep. always on her right side, with her right arm doubled under her head. Her eyes close, her breathing becomes short and spas modic, and low moaning escapes her lips. The muscles above her eyes twitch convul- sivsly. and her mouth is frequently thrown to one side. While in this condition she manifests what in mental philosophy is called double consciousness.
