But there were no signs ot e,lher indignation or faintness, as he listened in calm, courteous manner to all they had to say, and at it's conclusion. rose quietly from the chair Mrs. WyllyS had rendered him on his entrance, and, with polite 5ow and smile. said atAbly;

WAsHINaToN. July 3l.-Reierring
to the regrets nat have been expressed
in some quarters that General Grant is
not TO be buried in his uniform with one
Of his swords by his side, and to the
superstition that meme of his uniforms

pose, because they were all turned over
to the Government some months ago
with his other military relics, Adjutant-
General Drum to-day said to an Asso-
ciated Press reporter that any or all OF

while they remain in the War Depart

The YadkIn Railroad Wooilen- VI Ills.
Correspondence ofthe Richmond Dispatch.l
SALISBURY, n. c., July 90, 1885.
Pursuant TO call, there was large
attendance of the directors and stock
holders at the meeting Of those in-
terested in the Yadkin railroad Ito run
from Salisbury TO WadesboroO, the
meeting being held here recently. a
meeting of the directory was held and
some important business that has
not been made known was trans
acted. Some Of our best bust
ness men are in the directory,
and to make it stronger Mr.. Samuel II.
Wiley, a director in the Western North
Carolina railroad, and largely interest
ed in the Richmond and Danville syn
dictate, was added. This gives assur-
asce to the scheme, and as it was found
that many stockholders, several years
ago, had paid in per cent. in cash
on the stock to the treasury, and some
were not present, the meeting was ad-
journed and general call made to at
tend the regular annual meeting, to be
held here on 10Th Of August, when it is
thought definite action will be taken
to build the road at once. In fact, it
was said at the meeting that the cars
would be running in year from Sails
bury to Wadesboro', and thus open up
to Salisbury and Richmond a country
rich in gold, silver, iron, and copper,
cereals, cotton, one Of the best timber
sections in the country; besides the
water-power Of the Yadkin river,
which, for its size, is not surpassed in
the United States. Much interest is
being taken in the road by the people Of
this, Stanley, and Arson counties,
through which the road is to pass, as
it is known that the popular Rich
mond and Danyille people are behind
the work.
The new Salisbury woollen-mills are
in full operation now, and are already
on the road TO success, turning out good
work in jeans, cassimores, fannels,
linseys, blankets, &c. Our tobacco
factories and warehouses are doing
well. We now want cotton-mill and
expect to have one, as the scheme is on
foot. With the new railroad building
and completed, new manufactures
SpriDging up, Salisbury must boom and
have an increase Of jobbing business
that is now good.
A new census of the town is to be
taken in August, which, it is thought,
will show 1900 inhabitants.
The United States Government work
Of cleaning out the Yadkin river above
the Richmond and Danville railroad
bridge has been resumed.
A rich find Of two-foot vein, show
ing much free gold, has been made at
the North shan, ninety level, Gold
Hill mine. The Hunnicutt mine is still

"HYPNOTISM."
| Remarkable Medical Experiments at Nancy.
France, with Mesmerism.


France, with NIesmerism.
lRevista Contemporaries, OF Madrid
For some time past, it is stated,
mesmerism has been used in Paris to
save from inanition those demented
ones who refused to take any nourish-
ment. The patients are mesmerized
and then commanded to eat. Those
who would not have touched food un-
der any other circumstances while in
the mesmeric state eat whatever is
given them.
1t is in Nancy, however, that most
surprising results have been obtained.
Dir. Focachon, a pharmacist in Chormes-
sur-Moselle, after having studied in the
clinic of DR.. Liebault in Nancy, devoted
himself for more than two years to a
series Of continuous and methodical ex-
periments of various kinds. There is
one of these which deserves particular
attention. Elise N, thirty-nine
years old, had been suffering since
the age of fifteen from attacks
Of hysterical epilepsy, which re-
Cured from three to five times a
month. Mr.. Focachon succeeded in
subjecting her to somnambulism, and,
by means Of simple passes, caused the
attacks to become less frequent and
finally disappear altogether. In graft
tude for her radical cure Elise con-
scented to subject herself to various ex-
periments in the interest OF science.
Focachon devoted himself to the in
vestigation Of the problem whether,
with the aid Of mesmerism. the physi-
cal condition of person might be mod
fled, and to discover direct material
proofs Of the influence.
During the slumber into which Elise
was thrown, Mr.. Focachon, by the
power of Lis will, succeeded in Affect
ing the action Of the heart, diminish
ing by six the number Of pulsations in
minute, and augmenting them by
more than twenty. DR.. Beaunis. pro-
fessor Of physiology, made this obser-
walton by means Of the esphygniograph
in the laboratory Of the medical faculty
at Nancy, in the presence Of Messrs.
Liebault, Liegeois, and Rene, the last
being chief of the physiological &C.
partment. This curious observation
was communicated to the Biological
Society last year by Mr. Beaunis.
Bus here Is what is truly marvellous.
The same person, Elise NJ, having
