SAVANNAH, GA, April 16. 1S92.-Edi-

Smith. The latter two were from the ship
Charleston Lieut.. Glasell carried with
him double-barreled shotgun loaded with
buckshot. and heard him say just before
leaving the side Of our vessel: 81 do not in

boat to the ship Charleston (the flagship of
the station, heard Engineer Toombs re-

thought him lost. He was captured and

REMARKABLE FREAK OF NATURE.

A Deaf and Dumb Lad Suddenly Pos
sesssd of a Foreign Language.
CARSON, New, April IA gentleman
who arrived here from Belmont, 100 miles
southeast of this city, tells Of remarkable
freak of nature. John Barnes and his wife
have son years old. Six years ago the
the boy became suddenly dumb and partly
deaf He remained in that condition until
one day last week.
The boys parents were greatly grieved by
his loss of speech and his almost total loss of
hearing, and they We unable to account
for the misfortune, as the boy was unusual
ly healthy. Last Monday the boys mother,
while hanging up her wash in the yard,
heard a loud cutlery in the house.
She entered for the purpose of learning
the source from which the noise emanated.
As sne opened the door tue boy, whom she
had left alone in the house few minutes
before, ran up to her aud shouted some-
thing which she could not understand. She
was SO overjoyed at hearing the voice of
her child, who had been silent for six
wears. that she fell upon the floor in faint.
When her husband reached home, half an
hour later, be found her in a semi-conscious
condition and the lad bending over her
talking TO her, Mr.. Barnes was as agree
ably surprised as his wife, although his
feelings were not so forciblY manifested.
The strangest part Of the matter is the boy
talks what is believed TO be Russian, a
language which neither of his parents nor
any one ia Belmont eau understand.
