Long Live the Veterans.

As long as the Grand Army of the
Republic remains to voice the convic-
tions of the old soldiers of the war OF
the rebellion. there will be no doctrine
of revolution or disunion, or of exalta-
tion of treason, or of submission to the
notification of the fruits of that war,
against which it will not protest, and.
if needs be, IFS protest will be backed
by the whole force of organized re-
sistance. The Union and the well
fare and prosperity of the entire coun-
try is the inspiration of the Grand
Army of the Republic. Divorced from
politics, it is yet a power in the higher
and purer politics whose influence is
felt rather than perceived in the po-
litical arena Long may the Grand
Army continue potent factor in pro-
noting the patriotic impulses of the

TRANCE SENSATIONS.
The Feelings of Horror Experienced by :
Seemingly Dead Girl.

The Feelings of Horror Experienced by n
Seemingly Dead Girl.
The sensations OF a seemingly dead
person, while confined in the coffin, are
mentioned in the following case of
trance: "A young lady, an attendant
on the Princess -, after having been
confined to her bed for great length
of time with n violent nervous disor-
der, was at last. to all appearance. de-
prived of life. Her lips were quite
pale, her face resembled the cOunte-
nance of dead person, and the body
grew cold. She was removed from
the room in which she died, was laid
in coffin. and the day of her funeral
fixed on. The day arrived, and, ac-
cording to the custom of the country,
funeral songs and hymns were sung
before the door. Just as the people
were about to nail down the lid of the
coffin. kind of perspiration was OBJ
served to appear on the surface of her
body 1t grew greater every moment,
and ut last kind of convulsive motion
was observed in the hands and feet of
the corpse. A few minutes after, dur
inc which fresh signs of returning life
appeared. she at once opened her eyes
and uttered most pitiable shrek.
Physicians were quickly procured, and
in the course of 4 few days she was
considerably restored and is probably
alive at this day.
The description which she gave of
her situation is extremely remarkable.
and forms a curious and authentic adj
ditiOn to psychology. She said it seemed
to her that she was really dead. yet she
was perfectly conscious of all that hap
pened around her in this dreadful state.
She distinctly heard her friends speak
ING and lamenting her death at the side
of her coffin. She felt them pull on the
dead-clothes and lay her in them. This
feeling produced a mental anxiety
which is indescribable. She tried to
cry, but her soul was without power,
and could not act in her body. She
had the contradictory feeling as if she
were in the body and yet not in it, ct
one and the same time. 1t was equally
impossible for her to stretch out her
arm. or to open her eyes, or to cry, al
though she continually endeavOred to
do so. The internal anguish of her
mind was, however, at its utmost
height when the funeral hymns were
begun to be sang, and when the lid of
the coffin was about TO be nailed down.
The thought that she was to be buried
alive was the one that gave activity to
her mind. and caused it to operate on
her corporeal frame. IN 7. Ledger.
