THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 30, 1807.
THE ZOUAVE JACOB.
Pari Las been ringing with stories about a
non-commissioned oflicer of Zouaves, named
Jaoob presumably a Jew who, it seems,
claims the power of working miraoles, or, if
not miraoles, cures without any agency save
his own will. According to popular rumor,
he can cure all diseases in an instant by the
glance of his eye, has cured the heir of the
Itonapartes of scrofula, has cured Marshal
Forey of hemiplegia, has cured the Count de
Chdteauveillard, or some such name, of long;
Standing paralysis, has oured this chiflbuier,
and that fishwife, and the other Auvergnat
porter of most distases known to man. So
profound is the belief in his powers among the
lower classes, that the street in which he ope
rates is blocked up, and the police, either
moved by the annoyance, or warned by
the priefats that cures of the kind did not
tend to increase belief in Christianity, or
dered the exhibition to end. All this is
Very vngne, too vngne for comment, but it
appears from really respectable testimony
that a man of this name, wearing a Zouave
uniform, has really claimed a power of curing,
by an ellort of the will, such diseases as hare
their origin in paralysis of the nerves, that he
has either cured, or deceived, or bought cer
tain protectors, and that he has excited a sort
of furore among the lower classes. Further,
it seems that one .Englishman, presumably
Intelligent, and certainly educated, has had
access to his room during the cured. The Bir
mingham Journal is not, we fear, a paper
quite so much read in London as it deserves
to be, but it possesses a Paris correspondent
who is certainly a great gossip, and we fear
given, when hardly pressed, to trust a little
to a very fertile imagination, and who makes
upon the subject of this Zouave the following
extraordinary statement, by far the most
minute that has yet appeared in England. We
cannot help the leDgth of a narrative which is
well worth the time it takes to read, and
which is absolutely essential to our purpose:
"The Zouave admits no one to his presence
who is not really alllicted with disease or in
firmity those who are led to the Rue de la
Koquette by curiosity being compelled to re
main in the waiting-room. Fortunately, I
was furnished with a letter from his best
friend, and became privileged at once. I en
tered the room with twenty of the most ragged
and dirty of the whole mob, and am thus
enabled to describe the scene. The Zouave
was standing as if in a revery when we entered
yellmell into the long, low apartment where
the cures were performed. He was leaning
against the wall, with his eyes half open, after
the fashion of Sonnambula before entering
completely into transe, the only difference
being in- the intense light shot out from the
living orbs beneath the drooping eyelids, lie
neither spoke nor moved while his father
busied himself in arranging the visitors upon
the low wooden benches before him. Every
crutch and Btick was taken from the infirm
patients, and placed in the corner be
hind the door, amid the timid whines
of the poor frightened creatures, accus
tomed to look upon the help afforded by
these objects as absolutely necessary to their
safety. When all were seated thus, leaning
the one against the other, the father going
close up to the son, whispered in his ear. He
was aroused in a moment, and, coming for
ward with a movement brusque and hurried,
savoring of the military camp, and not in the
least of the solemnity of the magician's sano
tuary, he walked up and down for a few
minutes before the eager line of sufferers. To
each he told the disease under which he or she
was suffering, and the original cause of the
malady; and, a3 no objection was made in any
one case, I am led to suppose him to have been
right in all.
"Presently, however, I observed him to
stop suddenly, and fix his eye upon one of the
patients who sat at the extreme end of the
second bench, and after examining him for a
moment, turn aside with a slight shudder,
which I observed was neither of disgust nor
dread, but a kind of involuntary recoil, lie
said abruptly, pointing with his forefinger
Straight into the face of the individual he
addressed : ' I can do nothing for your dis
ease ; it is beyond my power ; go, and re
member it is useless to return.' This was all,
but the words acted upon ' the man like a
magio spell. He shook from head to foot,
like the aspen leaf, and tried to gasp out a
few words, but whether of prayer or expostu
lation it is impossible to say, for his tongue
seemed paralyzed, and clung to the roof of his
mouth, while the Zouave turned aside with
n indescribable expression of fear, certainly
indicative of a kind of intimidation. But
this was soon shaken off, and he again passed
before the line, uttering simply the words,
'Rise and walk I' The sound which simulta
neously burst from the assembly could find no
fitting description in any language. It was a
sort of moaning whine, a kind of infantine wail
ing, evidently produced by fear and daubt.
One feeble old beggar woman, whose head had
stopped its palsied shaking from the moment
the Zouave Jacob had fixed his glittering eye
upon her, was the one who gave expression to
the feeling which had evidently taken posses
sian of them all. 'Oh, how can I move with
out my crutches?' and, having turned a yearn
ing look towards the corner where these old
friends and supporters were standing, with a
host of others, she began to mumble and moan
most piteously. But the Zouave looked for
an instant down the line, with an ominous
frown on his brow, as he found that not one of
the patients had obeyed his orders.
"No pretension to the sacred character of a
prophet, or inspired seer, was there, for he
stamped with Buch rude violence on the iloor
that the casement shook again. He almost
littered an oath, but it was unfinished, as he
once more'uttered the command to rise and
walk, so that others might be admitted in
their place. Then came the most strange and
mysterious moment of the whole ceremony.
One by one did every individual seated upon
those low wooden benches rise and stand erect.
No words can describe the singular spectacle
offered by this fearing, hoping, doubting
crowd, as each one found himself standing
firm upon the legs which for years had ceased
to do their office. Some laughed like foolish
children, some remained wrapped iu stolid
wonder, while many burst into the most heart
rending paroxysm of weeping. It was then
that the Zouave stretched forth his arm and
bade them pause. All wa3 hushed and silent
for a moment. The Dause lasted for some
time. 1 have been told that it is always
so, but have not been able to account for
its necessity; and then the door was
thrown open, and the crinnW
lyzed, and the halt and the lame of the hour
before, walked from that
darkened chamber, with a somewhat timid
gait, it may be, but with straightened limbs
aud measured steps, as though no ailment had
ver iached them. One or two amonrai .
number turned to thank their deliverer, but
the Zouave dismissed them brutally. iia 0fl';
don't stand shilly-shally. You are cured.
ain't vou f that's enough now pietiez-moi U
mum!' Iu vlain English 'Cut your stick.
mid 1, crmm Before leaving the room I
turned to look at the single patient whose case
Jacob had tironounced as being beyond his
iowr to ;Urv tJe wwi WW H11 W Us,
aims, and his neck twisted all awry. It cer
tainly was a harg-dog countenance, worse than
any I ever beheld, and the expression of rage,
and hate, and fear, which it conveyed was un
mistakable. His feet were paralyzed likewise
and twined outward.
"The Zouave's father searched amongst the
sticks and crntches left in the corner for those
which belonged to tLe only cripple destined
to remain so, aud as he touched each one, look
with inquiring glance towards the unhappy
wretch, who unswered with an awkward jerk
of bis wry neck, until ho seized upon a sort
of wooden shelf or go-cart upon wheels,
which the cripple had been used to push
before him. A boy cmne in to help him from
his sent, and as he disappeared, supported by
this aid, he uttered a poignant groan, which
roFounded through the place with the most
weird and terrible effect imaginable. I subse
quently inquired of the Zouave by what im
pression he was made aware of his inability
to cure. He answered simply that in cases
of this kind a veil seemed to fall before Lis
yes and impede his view of the patient."
We need not say wo do not ask our readers
to believe one word of that most extraordinary
siatement. We know nothing whatever of
the correspondent of the Birmingham Journal,
except that for years past he has been telling
stoi ies in that paper better than almost auy
one tells them; we do not know his name, and
are wholly unable to decide whether he saw all
this, or deliberately invented all this, or, as is
most probable, pieced together all thin from
other men's stories, and then made himself
the hero of the narrative. That remark about
the veil looks decidedly like an invention, for
it is Scotch. Old Scotch was the mode
adopted fifty years ago by the "seers" of
Skye to describe the modus operandi of
their power of predicting death. Nor do we
care much to explain, or try to explain, the
impression the zouave has unquestionably
produced in Paris.
Our own impression is, we confess, a very
strong one, that ho is not a fanatio at all, but
an Impostor, who gets up this drama as an ad
vertisement, with the view of creating au im
pression highly profitable in Paris that he
can cure what quacks call "nervous diseases,"
but that is only a plausible guess. But the
story irresistibly suggests the old query, what
amount of evidence will justify an intelligent
human being in believing the facts related of
the Zouave t Clearly no statements from un
known newspaper correspondents would jus
tify Lim, because we have no sufficient proof
that they are certain to tell the truth, or intel
ligent enough to detect falsehood. But how
much evidence would do f Suppose, instead of
au ui'known gossip, a known man, say Mr.W.
II. Russell, had signed that wonderful tale,
would that have been sufficient f No; for any
individual might have been the victim of an
illusion. Well, but suppose a group of known
men, say, to make the supposition perfect, the
Archbishop of Canterbury, Mr. Maurice, Lord
Stanley, Mr. Lewes, Professor Huxley, aud Sir
Henry Thompson the operator, we mean
had added their signatures to the tale, would
that nave been suiiicient f V e believe one-half
the educated men in England would say imme
diately no, that no evidence whatever could
prove an occurrence, or rather a series of oc
currences, so nearly approaching the miracu
lous. Aim yet, if the testimony of many men
morally incapable of lyinc, intellectually more
conipt-tent to test deception than any average
doubter to test their statements, is not to be
accepted, why do we believe anything f
Most of us have no better proof that the
Queen exists, for, after all, one's eyesight, if
fairly considered, is by no means so complete
a demonstration of any fact as the testimony
of those six men would be. Their six eye
sights are worth more than our one, on any
lule ot evidence worth discussion. There is
no proof that we know of that the earth goes
round the sun, except the testimony of a good
mnny competent and honest persons that they
have seen, or otherwise convincea inemseives,
of certain phenomena which can be explained
only upon that theory. Jacoo, as we say, seems
to us a vulgar impostor, who has taken in the
clever raconteur whose account we have quoted;
but our contention is that if the six gentlemen
n:mu d had seen the same incidents, and tested
their reality, and signed the storyteller's state
ment, we should either be bound to accept the
facts their meaning is another matter or to
state honestly that there are incidents so new,
so unusual, and so unlike any previous ex
perience, that evidence in regard to them has
no meaning or weight at all. This is the
point to which we want to bring our oppo
nents oh this subject, and never can bring
them. Is there any occurrence not involving
directly or indirectly a contradiction in terms
which they would, upon the testimony of
these six men, when specially interested in
investigation, refuse absolutely to believe f
And it so, upon what grounds do they accept
anything, or build any scheme of scientific,
antiquarian, or judicial research f What is
the limit, short of a statement which contra
dicts itself, beyond which testimony has no
value Is there no amount of testimony which
would prove, prove to a demonstration, that
the mere will of a Zouave named Jacob could
enable a paralyzed person to walk like a
healthy man; and if so, how much 1 or, if not,
what is our ground for believing a statement
of a gradual cure of similar disease iu any
hospital in fireat Britain? Upon the answer
to those questions, upon the establish
ment, if it be possible, of some dis
tinct canon as to the value of evidence, de
pends the whole utility of inquiry into the
moie recondite phenomena of nature, and half
the value at least of modern theologic discus
sion. You are trying, we shall be told, to prove.
on scientific grounds, the scientific value of an
unscientifio credulity. Well, well, well !
never mind about names. Call it credulity or
faith, superstition or conviction, the point
remains the same. Is there, or is there not, a
possible amount of human testimony which
oujht to produce certainty as to a particular
event in a reasoning mind, which in truth, for
all purposes of subsequent investigation or
theory-building, maiex it a fact, as much to be
reckoned with as the appearance of an unex
pected comet in nn astronomer's calculations ?
o contend that there is, and must be, and
have as yet seen no answer from the
honestly skeptical side which does not
involve the Bcientillo conclusion that there are
facts not impossible in x, which yet are so
unlikely that no amount of evidence would
prove that they occurred. The uulikeliest
tLing we know of is that a grain of wheat
should be buried, and then months after
wards shoot out sixty other grains he was a
speculator, the genius who first tried that 1
but still one believes it, aud acta on the
belief. Why, testimony to the unlikely
has a limit to its force r wuwn spectator.
