lyranI's Curiosity.
The following remal kable case of sus
pended animation is related by a writer in
Chambers Journal: A certain ''joghee''
(Hindoo anchorite,) said to possess the
power of suspending at will and resuming
the animation OF his body, was s~nt for by
Runjeet Singh, and declining to obey was
brought by force into the tyrant's pres
ence and ordered to give, under pain OF
death, practical proof of his supposed
power. He submitted perforce He was
put by his disciples through certain pro-
cesses, during which he became perfectly
unconscious; the pulses ceased, his breath
did not stain a polished mirror. and the
European doctor who was present declared
that the heart had ceased to beat. To all
appearances he was DIS dead as Queen
Anne. In this state he was put into a
carefully made box. the lid was closed and

A Noble Life,

Some lives are SO beautiful in their com
pleteness that their unwritten biographies
are a veritable loss to the public. A few
years ago American society lost one of its
few truely ''grandes Danes woman
who had filed the highest places in both
the social and political worlds, enc whose
daily round of duties was so completely
and conscientiously observed that she
might well have served as a model to her
successor. The gentle dignity and scrupu-
lous exactness with which she performed
all tho arduous round OF society obliea-
tions in Washington, the equally careful
attention given to the minute OF her house
and the complete and watchful care with
which she superintendent the education
and health of her children bespoke mind
of the rarest equipose. This combination
is more often seen among the political
great ladies of England than in this coun-
try-this painstaking, asserting and at
tending 10 every obligation as duty, and
doing everything in its own time and
place, 'decently and in order, as the
prayerbook hath it. Ike very way such
women their calls and write their notes ex-
cites our admiration. "Noblesse obi ge'

4 Man Found Oh All Unknown Island Fifty
Miles From san Joe.
News received from San Joe, the cap
ital of Costa RIGA, says that in recent re-
turn cruise from the coast of Patagonia
to the port of Sana Cruz, the Argentine
revenue cutter San Juan sighted and came
to anchor off an island hitherto unknown,
fifty miles from shore, three miles long
by one mile vide, avera ging probably
thirty feet above high tide, with rocky,
almost perpendicular coast line, extreme
iy tedious OF ascent. In the interior,
however, it was found to be we'll wooded,
and the captain of the cutter reports hay
ing encountered in his rambes many
species Of wild animals and thousands OF
birds. A number of clear, sparkling,
tresh~water springs were seen. Beside
one of these human footprint was dis
covered. A search of the vicinity led to the
finding of a man asleep upon the ground,
close by the beach. He was perfectly de-
void OF clothing; but a snow-white beard
and hair reached nearly to his knees.
When first awakened he attempted to
escape and acted like d wild man, but,
being captured, soon recovered his
speech.
He was native of Spain, 40 years old
and gave his name Mariana Rodriguez
He s"id ne had shipped from Montevideo

New York, bound around the Horn A
violent storm had cast the vessel upon the
rocks, and he alone Of all the crew had sue
seeded in gaining shore in safety. No
other ship had been sighted since the day
be landed until the San Juan came. He
lived on raw shellfsh and birds eggs,
which were obtainabe in abundance: but

at times variable and bitter cold. had been
