a Breath FJc

DIR. l.. &. Woodman, of Paw Paw,
Michigan, contributes the following
interesting though incredible observa-
ton; | have singular phenomenon
in the shape Of a young man living
here, that / have studied with much
interest, and / am satisfied that his
peculiar power demonstrates that
electricity is the nervo force beyond
dispute. His name is VIM. Under
wood, aged q years, and his gift is
that of generating fire through the
medium Of his breath, assisted by
manipulations with his hands. He
will take any body's handkerchief, and
hold it to his mouth, rub it vigorous
ly with his hands while breathing on
it, and Immediately it bursts into
flames and burns until consumed. He
will strip, and rinse out his mouth
thoroughly, wash his hands, and sub
NIT to the most rigid examination to
preclude the possibility of any hum
bug, aud then by his breath blown
upon any paper or cloth, envelop it
in fame. He will. when out cunning
aud without matches, DESTROYS Of a
fire, lie down after collecting dry
leaves, and by breathing on them
start the fire and then coolly take of
his wet stockings and dry them. 1t
is impossible TO persuade him to do il
more than twice in a day, and the ef-
fort is attendant with the most ex.
IRENE exhaustion. He will sink into
a chair after doing it, and on one occa-
sion, after he had a newspaper on fire
as narrated, placed my hand on his
head and discovered his scalp to be
violently twitching as il under intense
excitement. He will do it any time,
no matter where he is, under any cir.
and have repeatedly
known Of his sitting back from the
dinner table, taking swallow of wa
ter, and by blowing on bis napkin, at
once set il on fire. He is ignorant,
and says that he first discovered his
strange power by inhaling and exhal-
ing on a perfnmed handkerchief that
burned while in his hands.
1t is certainly no humbug, but what
is itl Does physiology give a like
instance, and if SO, wheres-[ Michi-

An honest Confession.

The Co,rier-Jownal says IL would

NOT 70 BIO Fooled With

On Friday man named William
Mallory, a resident of Delaware coun.
ty, and possessing mind ever on the
alert for solving things of a mysterious
character, visited Forepaugh's circus in
Philadelphia 1t would appear that
William had lonl been anxious to
knc W whether an elephants trunk was
Composed of solid meat or whether it
was Of a porous nature In order to
satisfy himself on this point he pro-
ceeded to insert his cane into the nos.
tril of one of the largest elephants pro-
boscis, and having extended his explo-
Iations about ten inches, his elephant
ship objected to further proceedings of
that character, aud lifting his Sara
toga" he struck Billy such a blow as
sent him on a pin wheel pilgrimage to
the opposite side of the tent where he
rolled himself up like a scroll, and
wherefrOm he was carried out to the
tuneful shorts Of the victorious shout
der or trunk hitter. A committee
waited on William last night and from
what could be learned from him it is
safe to say that elephants trunks are
composed of solid material-very solid.
1t has never been decided as to who
struck Billy Patterson, but not so as to
who struck Billy Mallory.

MrS EcOyiile visits Guiteau.

Guiteau's sister, Mrs. Scoville ar
rived at Washington on Friday, and
visited the assassin at the Jail tor the
purpose of inducing HIM, if possible,
to change his attitude towards her hus-
band, and failing IN that to have him
make an assignment of his worldly
effects to her Tor his benefit. The pris.
oner was very surly toward Mrs. SEQ
vile, accompanied his denunciation
intention not to have anything more to
do wi h the Scovilles. Mr. ScoVille
accompanied lis wife to the jail, but
did not want to anger him unnecessa-
rily. Mrs Sooville betrays her usual
solicitude for her unfortunate brother,
and says that she will stick TO him to
the lat. She is still firmly of the
opinion that he is insane, aud therefore
incapable of caring for himself and says
that her only desire is to minister TO
his wants.

PERFECT PEACE.

1hr ughout the t. nglsd ways OF life,
Restless, we como AID 20;
And mid our cares, and toll and strife,
We little quiet know.
but, when In dilense, soft and sweet.
Is ended life's sh ort lease,
Gently as day the night doth meet,
We pass to perfect peace.
Eyes that are close to earthly sight,
Gan never wake to weep;
Nor pain, nor woe, nor grief, nor blight,
Tan move that slumber deep.
Ears that every sound are stilied,
Can nevermore be stirred
With sorrow never can be flied,
Nor panied by cruel word.
So hearts Of dust all griefs for.ske,
They never break mo- bleed;
Tt Q living hearts that throD and ache,
our lender pity need
Oh, restful sleep! ih. calm repose
Where all llfe's tri ais cease,
Thy silver stream forever flows
10 land of perfect peace
Then lot US In good deeds forget
the grief that II Is our eyes;
And from those days Of sad regret
shall fraprance sweet ari o.
And sanctified this life shall be,
v ith pure and holy aims,
Until, at las We come TO see
all human needs and claims.
And and In them our power to make
The lives of 9th .rs blest,
So they with US to hope shall wake.
To sense OF 10y snd rest.
And whether painless fleep ia d .ath,
Or quicker cd lite's increase,
Its gentle touch is but the breath
hat Yiveth perfect peace.
