To ----
It cannot be a sin that I look back,
Behind the cloild that (liras my wasted years,
And sec thee shining o'er its flower-gemmed track,
The first to flush my blood, the first to wake my
tears
It cannot be a sin, however vain,
To worship still a love I ne'er shall know again.
Tho' Time has sprinkled well my locks with white,
And tho' another, faithful, be my bride ;
And thou art wedded, and art happy quite,
Thy sons and daughters growing by thy side ;•
It cannot be a sin to linger yet,
To gaze upon a star that ne'er for me will set.
Thou will come to me ; and I may not strive
To wave away the vision of a girl
Whose presence palpable is here alive
I hear her voice, and see the auburn curl
I kiss the lips, and press the yielding hand
As tho' the glass of life had lost no grain of sand !
Iv. •
It cannot be a sin 1 It lifts my soul
Above temptation, oft, when I would sin :
It was thy memory caused me dash the bowl,
The Lethe bowl I longed to revel in.!
In gloomy hours dejection flies to thee,
And, as by magic spell, comes back tranquility !
So, thou art in my spirit—and my heart,
Its wild waves beating, still are swayed by thee.
Yet we are many years and miles apart,
But all my precious youth is s till renewed by thee I
It cannot be a sin, this chastened love,
So with my holiest thoughts and deepest reverence
wove,
And that we wed not was no fault of thine;
It might have been I But youthful blood is hot;
And mine was vain and proud. I missed thy shrine
When, In thy soul's soft font, I found 11 not.
0, then was madness! But my act had sealed
To me a sweetness never since revealed.
VII.
I have not worshipped since, except as erg
1 bowed before thee. So this lesson learn :
Till death, this soul's religion, as at first,
Upon thy altar, thine alone, must burn.
The love around me were indeed a shade,
But for the light my early love hath made.
Is this a consolation'? Thou bast made
No wreck of me because I wear. thee not ;
I come to' thee with what does not upbraid !
In all life's frosts thou art the summer spot
In trials sore, in tierce temptation'ssway,
The rudder, thou, my passions ail obey.
And sweeter far than all the thought, that thou
Thus rulest o'er me as th' unconscious star
On whose serenity 1 gaze e'en now.
Thou haat forgot me, save with thoUghts afar 1
And never bath thy gentle spirit known
One jar of discord in its ripe, full tone.

HOW TO JOIN ANIMALS AFTER MA
TURITY.—A curious and interesting experiment
was lately made at Strasburg, to effect the union of
two animals, so that they might, to a certain de
gree, have a life in common. It was, indeed, pro
ducingpliificiaily what nature produced sponta
neously in , those extraordinary phenomena, the
Siamese twilit. - Two white rats, of the Albino spe
cies, were selected for the experiment, probably as
being more manageable than their darker brethren.
.An incision was matte on the right side of the one,
and on the left side of the other, engaging the skin
and the cellular tissue under it. The surfaces of the
two wounds were :kept closely together, by sutures
and bandages, until the sixth day, when union by
the first intention was found to have taken place.
'They then walked: side by side, being united by a
fleshy band. An attempt to poison both by the
mouth of the one did not succeed, but an injection
thrown into the jugular vein of one animal was
found to have entered the superficial femoral veins
of the other, showing clearly that an intimate vas
cuter union had already taken place between them.
This interesting experiment may have a most im
portant bearing on restorative surgery.
ANGLO-REBEL WRITERS.—The Mobile Regis
ter publishes - a private letter from London,
which
states that the editorial sanctum of the haler has be
come the focus and rendezvous of Southerners in
LondOn. It is ti seminary of Southern intelligence
and a school of Southern writers, not for its own
columns, but for the other London papers. J.E.:

WAS THE MOON EVER A COMET i—Accord
log to M. Arago, the Arcadians thought themselves
of older date than the moon. They maintained that
their ancestors bud inhabited this planet before it
had any satellites. Struck with this singular opi
nion, some philosophers have imagined that the
moon was formerly a comet, which, in performing
its elliptical course around the sun, came into the
neighborhood of the earth, and was drawn in to
revolve around it. Such a change of orbit is possi- -
He, but evidently it could not have taken place if
the comet's perihelion distance had been great. The
comet must, therefore, have passed very near the
sun, and have experienced an intense heat, capable
of issipating every trace of humidity. The'atmost
entire absence of an atmosphere around the moon,
the scorched appearance of its vast mountains and
deep valleys, and the few plains that are seen, have
been cited as proofs that this luminary was once a
comet.
REMARKABLE MAGNETIC PHENOMENA.
—A notice has appeared in a foreign journal of cer
tain very remarkable magnetic phenomena which
were observed in Russia. It appeare that while
making a survey with pendulum experiments in the
neighborhood of Moscow, the officers employed were
surprised by finding a marked inclination of the
pendulum towards the city. With a view to obtain
data for comparison, the observation was repeated
at another station some miles distant, and after
wards at others, until an entire sweep had been
made round the region, as it may be called, of the
ancienteapittil of Muscovy. But in every instance
the result was the same—an attraction, so to speak,
of the pendulum towards the city as to a focus. Geo
logists might be questioned as to the nature of the
strata within the circumperambulated area. Mean
whilelhis fecal attraction remains a very curious
subject of speculation.
NEW ... GUN DIETAL.—A composition has been
proposedin Austria as a substitute for ordinary gun
metal, consisting of copper and tin. It is composed
of sixty parts of copper, from thirty-four to forty
four of spelter from two to four of iron, and from
one to two of tin. The iron, which must be wrought
iron, is put at the bottom ofi a crucible with the cop
per upon it, and the whole exposed to a very high
temperature. The tin is then added, and afterward
the speller. The metal is stirred, left for a minute
or two, stirred again, and afterward cast. A twelve
pounder gun, made of the alloy, was heavily charged
with powder, rammed full of sand, plugged at the
muzzle with a piece of iron, and in this state fired.
All the gas resulting from the ignition of the powder
escaped through the touch-hole; and not only was
the gun found to be uninjured, but, on a careful exa
mination, not the smallest alteration in its internal
diameter could be detected. This indicates extraor
dinary toughness and elasticity.
" WAVERLEY'S" MEMORY.—Mr. Carruthers,
in the course of a lecture on Scottish history, de
livered in Queen-street Hall, Edinburgh, recently
mentioned an instance of Sir Walter Scott's won
derful memory : "I have heard Campbell relate how
strongly Scott was impressed with his (Campbell's)
poem of Lochiel's Warnings.' . read it to him in
manuscript,' he said ; 'he then asked to read it over
himself, which he did. slowly and distinctly, after
which he handed to me the manuscript, saying,
"Take care of your copyright, for I have got your
poem by heart," and with only these two readings
he repeated the poem with scarcely a mistake.'
Certainly an extraordinary instance of Memory, for
the piece contains eighty-eight lines. The subject,
however, was one which could not fail powerfully
to arrest Scott's attention, and the versification and
diction are such as are easily caught'up and remem
bered."
EFFECT OF SHOT ON VESSELS.—A shot does
not make a hole of its own size right through the
wood, but indents it, the fibres springing back after
the shock. Generally the course of the shot can
only be traced with a wire, sometimes by a hole as
large as a man's finger. The damage most ofterthap
pens on the inside of a vessel, in splintering and
breaking the wood, after the main force of the shot
is spent. Forts Hamilton and Richmond, which are
about a mile apart, with a vessel lying between
them, could not with their guns send a shot through
two feet of its timbers. There is rarely an instance
where a ship was sunk by a solid shot. Hot shot and
shell do the mischief. The latter will sometimes
make apertures of several Net through the aides of
vessels.
AN IMPROVEMENT IN TELEGRAPRY.—
The Viscount de Vougy, director general of the
electric telegraph throughout France, has invited
several scientific members of the National Institute,
and some of the chief clerks in the telegraph de
partment, to assist at experiments about to be made
with the typo-telegraph invented by the Chevalier
Bonelli. 'the typo-telegraph of this scientific engi
neer can print 500 despatches of 25 words within an
hour. According to the system of Morse now in
use, it would require not less than 20 wires and 5 . 0
clerks to accomplish a similar work. Should the
experiments prove satisfactory, it is said that the
Government will concede to the Chevalier Bonelli
the working of the line from Paris to Lyons and
Marseilles.
GOETREIS CORRESPONDENCE.—At Wei
mar (Upper Saxony), it is stated 'that the corres
pondence between Goethe and the Duke Karl Au
gust may be expected to be published in the course
of the corning summer. Dr. Vogel, one of the sur
viving representatives of the "great time" of
Weimar, along with the Grand Duke and the cham
berlain, Herr von Goethe, is engaged in the prepa
ration of the letters. The entire numberamounts to
430, of which the Grand Duke possesses 130 (which
are therefore by Goethe), while 416 are from the
archives of the Goethe family, (which are from Karl
August to Goethe), an d the remainder will be ga
thered from other quarters ; including, for the sake
of completeness, a few that are already published.
• THE LATEST PARIS CARTOON OF WIT.—
The Charivari gives a wood-cut representing the
year 1863 (under the guise of a young woman) look
ing round in great alarm at a scene of the utmost
confusion, in which the. Northern States of Arne-
rice, the Southern StateS, Greece, Turkey, thello
man question, the new Boulevards of Paris, the
new opera-house, are all flung pen. mell together at
her feet. She exclaims, as 1862 is seen stealing away
in the distance : " What a mess my predecessor has
left me! And just to think that I have the tisk of
-setting all this confusion in order!"
A FIREARM TO SAVE LIFE.—A very suc
cessful experinient was made two days since at
'Havre, with a gun, invented by Count Haudetot,
for throwing a rope from the shore to a ship in dis
tress. The lope was carried a distance of 240 yards
by a shot weighing ten - pounds. The inventor says
that the greatest distance to which a rope has been
thrown by a similar instrument is 200 yards, and
that the s hot usrd weighed twenty pounds.
DIEM )1)R "PAPER GENERALS."---ann
powder med i c of paper is the latest novelty. A letter
from Copenhagen says that the Royal Artillery
Board, of Denmark, has just made successful expe
riments with the new material. Common packing
liaPer was, in.the course of ten or fifteen minutes,
.rallSrottned into a very powerful kind of gunpow
der, and a number of shots were fired with it.
A LARGE PEARI..—In the " Loan Collection"
recently exhibited at, South Kensington, London,
was a pearl, which is believed to be the largest now
!known. Its Wright is three ounces; it is two inches
In length, and four and a half in circumference ; its
'sides are nearly straight, somewhat widening to
ward the lower part.
THE CRIME OF MURDER.—There are four
murders committed in England for every million in
habitants; 1(7 in Belgium ' 20 in Sardinia; 31 in
Trance; 36 in Austria; 68 in Bavaria; 45 in Lom
bardy; 160 in liome; 90 in Sicily; 200 in Naples.
Murder is almost unknown in the valleys of Van
dola.
A CURIOUS FACT.-'--Some curious genius states,
as the result of an estimate, that a million ono
dollar trenitiry notes would weigh over a ton, and
make a pile as high ns the Washington monument.
This will give some lien of the labor of preparing
aor treasury note issue.

THE CORN EXOITANGE ASSOCIATION.—
The annual meeting of this association was held last
evening at the hall, eorner of Second and Gold
streets.. Mr. H. Hinchman acted as chairman, and
Theodore Wilson as secretary. The annual report
was read, showing that the association has added to
its list during the past year sixty-four membeFs,
making a total of three hundred and fifteen indifti
duals and firms, and eighteen subscribers, repre
sented in the rn Exchange Association. The
treasurer's report states that the balance in thet
treasury January, 1862, was $ 866 67
Receipts from all sources for the year 3,376 60
$4,242 67
Payments for the year • ' " 4,490 23
Balance due the treasurer $ 247 7t
A register of the daily receipts of produce by rail
road and tidewater has been kept during the year,
and although it is not as accurate as desirable, still
it gives a better approximation to the actual receipts
of the port of Philadelphia than we have ever had
before. They foot up as follows
Flour, barrels •
Bye, barrels
Corn Meal, barrels.
Wheat, bushels....
Corn,
Oats, IC
Our exports have been large for the latit year.

former years, white wheat and corn show a slight
falling offfrom last year. They are as follows :

a de
crease of 87,265 bus. wheat; and 21,710 bus. of corn.
We still hold a broad pre-eminence as the great
cloverseed market of the United States. The foreign
exports for six years past hada been as follows : .
4,460' ! 1860, buslieb3
16,02111861, "
21,93911862, "
1857, bushels
1858, "
1869, "
, Besides the shipment of 7,971 bushels of wheat, • 1
50,000 bushels of corn were shipped via New York. '
Thc report further alludes to the energy of the
Pennsylvania Railroad, in its success to deliver
promptly the immense amount of freight poured:
upon her by the various lines at Pittsburg. This
company has recently completed a fire-proof grain
elevator in this city, at the foot of Washington
street, on the Delaware river. It is thus accessible'
by cars bringing the grain from the West, and has
ample wharf accommodations; With sufficient depth!
of water to float the largest ships to carry the grain
to foreign ports. The storage capacity of the present:
building is about 475,000 bushels, but it is so con
structed that it can readily be doubled. It is esti
mated that 5,000 bushels of grain per hour can be
taken from the cars, and either put in store, or
placed at once on board vessels, as the consignees
may require. All of the latest improvements in ma
chinery for securing the most economical and effi
cient 'treatment of grain, have been introduced in
this building.
The company has adopted a liberal scale of charges
for receiving, storing, and. shipping grain. It is an
ticipated that the trade of our port will continue to
improve under the additional facilities thus offered
by the railroad company for either shipping the
grain to foreign ports or for consumption in our own
market.
The association unites with the Board of Trade
and our citizens generally,
.and earnestly urge upon
the General Government the importance and de
sirability of locating the navy yard at League Island.
It is useless, says the report, to reiterate the vari
ous reasons why this should be done, as they have
been fully set forth, and must be apparent to every
thoughtful mind: .11 gives us pleasure to announce
that the project for the establishment of a first-class
line of steamships between this port and Liverpool
is in a fair way to be brought to a successful issue.
We refer to the Randall line, and from the well
known character and ability of those having the
matter in charge, we hope before the year closes to
see this line in operation.
At a special meeting of the Association, held on
the 24th of July, it was unanimously resolved that
the Corn Exchange Association would organize and
equip a first-class regiment of volunteers, for service
in the United States army. Two thousand dollars
of the funds of the Association were immediately
appropriated, and subscriptions by two hundred and
ten individuals or firms 01 the Association obtained,
amounting to $25,111, making a total of $27,111. A
etllntnittee of twenty-one members of the Associa
tion, with Mr. A. G. Oattell as chairman, and Mr.
•Samuel L. Ward as treasurer, were appointed to
take the supervision of the affiirs of the regiment.
This Committee have faithfully and well performed
the arduous duties imposed upon them. The regi
ment numbered nine hundred and seventy-two men
and thirty-seven officers, fully armed and equipped,
as noble and well-organized a body of men as any
which have gone forth in the defence of our coun
try, were quickly - taised and put in the field, and on
more than one bloody field of battle have realized
the high expectation of this Association and of the
country.
The following gentlemen were elected officers for
the ensuing year : President, A. Getty ; vice presi
dent, Thomas Allman ; secretary, George Oookman ;
'reasurer, Samuel L. Ward.
TEE ORGANIZATION OF CITY COUNCILS.
—lt Is expected that to-morrow afternoon the regu
lar business of ,the City Councils will be resumed
without further difficulty respecting the organize;
Lion. The .:People's Party members of Common
Council Will, of course, enter a protest against the,
admission of members who claim seats without'
right. Their protest will be disregarded, as the De
mocrats will, by their own showing, have five ma
jority, and can use that power to party advantage.
The clerk will call the names of Messrs. Meese;

THE KETCJILINE lioM C IDE—INVESTIGA
vox CONCLUDED.—The coroner's jury empannelled
to investigate the cause of the death of Mr. John
Tetchline reassembled yesterday afternoon, pursuant
to adjournment. The following is the substance of
the evidence elicited:
Mr. J. Alexander Simpson, for the Common
wealth, WAS present.
Mr. McGinnis was recalled to the stand, and was
asked to look around the room and see if he could
identify any one present who wore a fur Gap on the
night of the attl•ay.
The witness could not identify anybody.
James Francis was recalled.—He identified a per
son who wore the fur cap ; has had no conversation
with him to-day, nor since the night of the affray;
I think, to the best of my knowledge, he is the same
man NVho wore the cap ; saw him before the fuss oc
curred and afterwards, also; I think that he is the
one who struck Mr. Keichline.
Mr. Franke recalled.—l saw Mr. Jordan; (the man
pointed out by Francis;) stew him doing nothing at
all ; when Keichline was struck I did not see Jordan
anywhere near me. ; the nearest one to me when
Keichline was struck, was Frazier; I only think he
WS the one who struck the blow.
Wm. G ehay was recalled.—Jordan and myself were
together that evening; did not see him strike a blow.
Wm. H. Thackara sworn.—ln relation to the
striking of the blow I know nothing; one of the per
formers jumped from the stage, and I stopped him
from going into the fight.
William John :Jordan was called.—He made a very
plain statement of the whole affair. When Keich
line threw the glass on the stage, witness asked him
"What he did that foil" Keichline replied, " What
are you going to do about itl" witness said "he was
going to do nothing;" presently the fuss was kicked
lip; the two performers, who were on the stage,
jumped to the floor, and got into the fight; I cannot
say I saw any body strike n blow; after the fuss was
over I returned to the saloon, and, while standing
near the stove, 1 saw a man raise his hand; it had a
kid glove on; on shaking his fist, he said: " Look !
here Is some f his blood;" the wearer of that glove
is that man Sitting there. [Here witness pointed out
Charles 'Newkirk, otherw.se known as Frazier.] I
am certain as to his identity; mind, I. do not say'
SAW him strike a blow.
Charles D. Peterson was present at the hall on the
night of the atfray, but he saw no blows struck.

A " GOOD Trmn" COMINCI.—We are in
formed that a musical fostival, of a highly attrac
tive character, will be given early in February, at
the Academy of Music, by the New England Sol
diers' Aid Association, for the relief of the suffering
New England soldiers now contined in the Phila•
delphia hospitals. This association; it is gratifying
to know, is accomplishing a vast deal of. good. Its
working committee consists of about forty members,
gentlemen of acknowledged worth, who are zeal
ously laboring for the relief of their suffering breth
ern. The committee visit all the hospitals, and
afford such assistance as lies within the scope of
their ability. With the co-operation of their
friends, the gentlemen composing the New England
Soldiers' Aid Association will be enabled to extend
their sphere of usefulness, and render the associa
tion one of the most efficient of the numerous chari
ties that have been evoked by this gigantic rebel
lion. We sincerely trust that the proposed enter
tainment may be honored with the smiles and sup
port of the charitably inclined.
THE THIRTEENTH PEN NSYL V ANIA
OevaLny.—This fine regiment, which was mostly
recruited in Philadelphia, has broken camp at Balti
more, and is now doing service in the neighborhood
of Point of Rocks, Md. A few days ago Lieut. John
O'Reilly, in command of a detachment, captured,
near Berlin, four rebel soldiers , who proclaimed
themselves deserters from the Ist Maryland (rebel)
Regiment. A civilian was also arrested, on sus
picion of being a spy, and there were subsequently
found about his person several letters to. parties in
the North, from their wayward brethren in Rich
mond. The 13th Cavalry made numerous captures
of this kind, and their service to the Government is
exceedingly valuable at this time.
TITE BOARD OF CONTEOLLERS.—At a
recent meeting of the Board of School Controllers a
resolution was adopted by which a special com
mittee was authorized.to inquire into the right of
Mr. Isaac Leech, controller from the Twenty.fourth
ward, to hold his seat in that body.'" Mr. Leech is
one of those aspiring gentlemen who claim, without
any apparent right, the high privilege of a seat in
Common Council. The recent decision of the Su
preme Court in the Connell case, in recognizing Mr.
Kerr as president,•recognizes, of course, Itir. Leech
as a member of Common Council. Mr. Leech, it is
thought, will now resign his seat as a controller,
and go into that body where his own Party wields
the majority power. If this is not done his seat will,
no doubt, be declared vacant by his fellow-con
trollers.
LITERARY CELEBRATION.—This morning
a series of interesting exercises will be held at
Haverford College, consisting of declamations and
addresses by the Junior class. Last evening the an
nual oration before the Loganian Society was de
livered by the vice president, Richard Thomas Jones,
of the senior class. His subject was "The Literary
Genius of America."
REORGANIZATION OF COMMITTEEI3.n
consequence of the admission of several new mem
bers into the Board of School Controllers, in lieu of
others whose terms have expired, the president has
resolved to reorganize the committees, with a view
to have an equitable distribution of the labor and
honor of committee duty. The announcement will
be made at the next stated meeting. The political
complexion of .the Board remains unchanged.
BREADSTUFFS FOR EllROPF..—Yesterday,
the ships Tonawanda and Westmoreland left this
port bound for Liverpool. The former took out a
cargo consisting of 3,843 bbla flour, 37.423 bushels
wheat, 95 bales rags, 210 bbls apples, 10 hhds bark,
and 34 bags cloverseed.
Cargo of Westmoreland consists of 23,356 bushels
wheat, 4,535 do corn; 5,218 bbls flour, 46 Wide bark,
61 casks tallow, 19 bales wool, and 36 boxes bacon.
DIED FROIff•THE EFFECTS OF HIS IN-
Jllnins.—A boy, named Eugene Livingston, who
was caught in the belting; at Spitzer's boot-webbing
manufactory, on Third street, above Poplar, on
Monday afternoon, has since died.
THE POLICE_
[Before Mr. Alderraiu Dougherty.]
Lnirceuy;
A man, named Joseph Francis, hailing from the
Island of' Cuba, and professing to be a sailor attaehed
to a vessel that arrived at this port recently, .was
arraigned, yesterday morning, before Alderman
Dougherty, on the charge of purloining a piece of
cassimere, from the store door of Messrs. Steelman
Co., Second street, above Market. The fellow
having secured the. booty, ran into Ledger place,
where he offered one-half of the plunder ton boy if
he would hide the remainder for him. The police,
however, traced the fugitive to his place of conceal
ment. He was committed to answer.
[Before Mr. Alderman Hutchinson.)
Charged with Larceny.
A-young woman, named Rebecca McClintock, had
ri - flhal hearing before Alderman Hutchinson on Mon
day evening, on the charge of the larceny of a dress,
the property of a Mies Patton, whe resides in Vine
street above Thirteenth.
The evidence developed the fact, that the accused
resided as a domestic in the family where Miss Pat
ton boarded. The defendant left this place of ser
vice a short time since, and a'numberbl articles were
missed—among them some of the clothing of Miss P.
On Sunday evening, as the defendant was coming
out of church, having on her person a stolen dress,
she was arrested. -Miss Patton identified her pro
perty. The accused was committed to answer.
[Before Mr. Aldo:innan Lentz.)
Disorderly • Houge.
Maria Hall, chai•ged "with* keeping a disorderly
house, on Federal street, above Eleventh, in the
First ward, was arraigned yesterday morning. It is
unnecessary to go into detail on this /intr. ' The
alderman ordered the accused to enter bail to. an
swer at court
[Before Mr. Alderman Beiller.)
Delinquent Juveniles.
Acase was adjudicated before Alderman Beitler,
on Monday evening, in which there was a remarka
ble similarity of names, Two 'boys, calling them
selves William Farraday and Edward Allbright,
were arrested on the charge oflarceny.- The defend
ants had been employed by Mr. Walter M. Smith, _
on Walnut street, above Third. They were arrested
by Officer Samuel R. Smith; on the charge of steal
ing .the.proPerty of James H. Smith. The facts, as
elicited before the magistrate, are, that one of the
Mr. Smiths some time since published a large num
ber of war songs, and other kindred literature, but
not finding ready sale, deposited them and a conside
rable amount of stationery generally, with the other
Mr. Smith, who had the boys in employment. The
work of pilfering, as is alleged, had been going on
for several months, until the entire stock has been
almost exhausted. The high price for paper has
produced a mania among boys, and it is suggestid
this fact led the juvenile defendants into temptation.
They were committed to answer.
Salutary.
The arrests of quite a number of persons for wheel
ing harrows on the sidewalks, or driving horses,
carts,
cars, wagons,and drays so close to each other
as to seriously interfere with personal travel
across the street intersections, has had quite a
salutary effect. The officers, under instructions,
based upon complaints made to the magistracy of
the city, are determined to abate the nuisance if
possible.

ture of "phosphate fertilizer,a a ground bone,! and

great obligations I am under to you for snatching as, as
it were, from immediate death. About two year_ ago.
while a resident of Cincinnati, Ohio, I was visited wan
an attack of paralysis of the lower extremitie.i, which.
rendered me almost entirely unable to stand min my
limbs. I employed some of the most celebrated ma
clans to be found in thas - section, but received no appa
rent benefit, and after a lapse of about eighteen months
was taken with a spasm, which one of my physicians.
pronounced a fit of apoplexy. Two weeks elapsed from
that time before I became the least conscious of anyth!sr
that had transpired, nor could I concentrate my minf or
converse upon any subject without becoming vry vi
sionary and excited, until I placed myself Inkier ryas
