Raising tho Dead.

Sir John Pryse, Of Montgomeryshire,
married three wives, and kept the en-
balmed bodies of the first two in his
bedroom, one on each sdo Of his bed.
Finally his third wife died. in 1745, and
he applied to Bridget Bostock, of Che
shire, who healed all diseases by prayer,
faith, and an ombrocation of fasting
spittle, 80 that her salivary glands were
always kept in full employ, to restore his
last wife to life. He writes:
MADAM, having heard by repeated ad-
vices that you have performed many
wonderful cures, even where the best
physicians have failed that you restore
sight to the blind, hearing to tho deaf
and strength to the lame, writo to know
whether you can restore the dead to lifep
Having lately lost wife, whom / tom
derby loved, l entreat you to exert your
self in my behalf, that the deceased may
DO restored to me, and the late Dame
Eleanor Pryso may be raised from the
dead. If your personal attendance is
necessary will send my coach and six,
with proper servants to wait on you.
Any rocompense that you require will BIO
made with the utmost gratitude, and
hope the bare mention Of IL will not be
offensive to you"

A VARIETY OF THINGS.
Tho Scissors and Paste Pot Produce
Their Perfect Work.
Chinese Heart smashors.

Chinese Heart Smnshors.
Philadelphia Press.
A Chinese belle is curiosity to China
mon, as we'll as TO Christians. Even her
own country-womon look upon hor with
as much wonder as admiration. One
reason of this is her rarity. Bellies In
China are rare birds Of rare plumage. No
ordinary community can afford the luxury
of possessing more than ono or two such
dazzling ehsrmers. As speech with the
male sex Is Of course forbidden her, her
features, eyes, checks, and silent lips
must all be eloquent. Her skin must
have great firmness of texture to end ure
the continual coatings Of white paste and
vermillion paint which tho laws of her
being enjoin. Her feet must not exceed
three inches In length, or ono inch in
breadth. Tho finger nails Of her last
three fingers must DO as long us their
fingers. These last two points arc tho
especial glory of Chinese fashion. Her
daily life does not differ much from that
of lady Of fashion In the days OF Pepys
or tho younger Walpole. Suspicious
Of the morning mists, she never
rises before noon. Breakfast Is served
in her own room by her servants.
This languid moal over, sho begins
the serious business of her life. Hair by
hair, supported by three or four hair
dressers, she attacks tho tangled locks in
whose adornment she finds her chief
pride. Both mistress and maids labor for
throe or four hours, with snatches of
rest, and, thoroughly exhausted by their
task at 9 o'clock, sit down to their dinner.
Each province has its separate method OF
dressing the hair, eighteen in oil, and tho
fashion Of womans hair betrays her
residence. The handsomest couture is
worn by the women of Khan Lu, that
boasts tho beautiful cities Of 500 Chow
and Shanghai. Strangely enough, the
belle is the only woman in China who has
q shadow of freedom. She is allowed to
go to thoaters, and oven to pay visits,
with far less surveillance than her less
favored sisters. There is something In
tho black patch that she wears next her
left temple, or by the corner Of her mouth,
that checks any attempt Mt improperly
A belle, of course, never walks, and
rarely waddles, but is almost always
borne in sedan chair. She is on adept
in the language Of the eyes, and through
those silent windows can signal more
persuasive arguments than fame with hei
| hundred tongues.

CLEVELAND IN THE SOUTH.
What u Mississippi Democrat Thinks
OF the Nominations.

OF the Nominations.
Ecksburg (MiSs,) Pod.
The democratic party is again conf
mitted to the stale old plan of carrying
New York, Indiana, and the solid south
in order to get control Of tho government
of tho United States.
At every election since tho war. tho
democra tic candidate for president has
boen taken from New Pork; and at tho
last two elections the candidate for yico
president hus been takon from Indiana
aud always with the same result: u dis
astTous defeat.
We had strong hopes that now plan
and now policy would obtain in tho
democratic council this time, We had
hopes that both Indiana and New York
would DO ignored in tho selection Of can
didates, and that mon would DO put for
ward who, by reason of commanding
ability and craftsmanship and exalted
records, should have commanded the
support Of democrats oil over tho country.
But IL appears that New York and In
diana democrats cannot be relied upon TO
vote the democratic ticket, unless citizens
Of those states are given a nomination.
Clevoland's nomination seems TO have
been dictated by an unwise dosire to
capituato to "eXpediency," and to cap
turo the vote of the independent repub-
licans of New York.
OF course II is expected that southern
democrats must hurrah for Cleveland,
notwithstanding the fact he Is utterly
unknown in our section, and as yet has
done nothing to entltle him to be called

Eight Miles OF Frogs.

F7FTF VUoV NNVlE'I IIVT00IIF'
Tom Barry yesterday morning took a
ride to Almaden, and when just past the
Sycamore Grove exchange no saw some
thing that made his eyes open in wonder
mont. and for long time could not
credit his senses, for tho road was per-
fectly lined with frogs, averaging the size
of large cherry. Ho supposed that they
would last only for little way, but for
eight miles no saw nothing but frogs,
and, to make suro that no was not dream
ing, got out of his wagon, caught whole
box full, and brought them TO town TO
prove the credbility OF his story. He
says that there are millions upon millions
of them, and whero they all came from
no one can tell.
