being due to some causeless freak of fan

Human Fertilization.

Thomas Callahan of Foote. Iron coun.

alive of the writer died and was buried
in Wood county, o. In 1856 took part
in the work of disinterring the body.
The coffin, which was of walnut boards,
was found to be perfectly sound. After
everything was ready for hosting the
coffin and its contents to the surface we
found that it was utterly impossible to
perform the task with the force at hand
on account of the unusual weight. Four
strong men were then called, and with
ropes and other appliances we finally
succeeded in raising it to the surface.
"The body was found to be in a COM
plete and perfect state of petrifaction.
The person. who had died of diphtheria,
never weighed more than 140 pounds
when in life, and it was the extraordinary
weight of the remains after they had lain
eight years in the earth that prompted
us to make the examination which re-
suited in our astounding discovery. Since
that time 1855 several petrified human
bodies have been disinterred in the same
general locality"

LETTERS OF JUNlUS.
Fresh Testimony Showing That Their Au-
thor Was Sir Philip Francis.


An event of the first magnitude is
about to take place. Lord Beaconsfield
said that there were only two really
burning questions: Who wrote the let
tiers of Juniusp Who was the Man
In the Iron Mask? The former of the
two has at length been satisfactorily
cleared up, and the proofs, based on re-
Gently discovered documents, will be
published in volume to be issued short
ly by a great old firm, whose name will
be a guarantee of the genuineness of the
discovery.
The public will of course guess that
this has been made through the mass of
manuscripts of Sir Philip Francis, which
came into the market some months back.
discovered leaves no doubt whatever
that Francis was the author of the ia
nous letters. A grandson of Sir Philip
is said to be still alive, and to have been
judge in Australia. The little clique
of literary Australians assert that he is
in some way connected with the book
and are very jubilant at the prospect of
Australia once more coming as promi-
nently before English readers as she did
a few years since.
The first of the letters of Junius ap-
peared more than century ago, on Jan.
81, 1869. They were published at inter-
walls from 1859 to 1772, when they were
collected by Woodfall and revised by
their author, whose name not even the
publisher ever knew. They were attrib-
uted to Sir Philip Francis, Warren
Hastings most bitter enemy; to Lord
George Germaine (Sackville), who was
dismissed the army for cowardice at
Mindon, and as minister was responsible
for repressive measures against the
American colonists; to Lord Temple, to
the great Burke himself and at least six
or seven others. There are probably few
of our readers who are not acquainted
with Macauley's summing up to prove
that Sir Philip Francis was Junius:
"The external evidence is, we think,
such as would support verdict in a
civil-nay, in a criminal-proceeding.
The handwriting of Junius is the very
peculiar handwriting of Francis, slightly
disguised. AS to the position, pursuits
and connections of Junius, there are five
marks, all of which ought to be found in
Junius. They are all five found in Fran
els. We do not believe that more than
two of them can be found in any other
person whatever" In dedicating his
collected letters to the English people
their writer said, 81 am the sole deposit
tary of my own secret, and it shall per-
ish with me-" John Wilkes, writing to
Junius in 1771, called it "the most i'm
portant secret of our times" And so it
has remained for century and quar-
ter. But it is soon to be a secret no
longer.-St. James Gazette.
