We have, says the New York Evening
Post, puhlislied several betters respecting
this extraordinary case of suflering ; they
are important to scientific men, and painful
ly inttresting to all. The following in writ

Advocate .
-Mrs. Hayes is not yet dead I leave
seen her several times. And alter reading
all that has appeared in the Advocate in re
gard to her. venture to communicate a few
thoughts upon her case. Before ,she passed
into this peculiar and effecting condition,
her health was for some trues extremely
poor. She ate but little, and that occasion
ed a considerable amount of suffering Some
timen It threw her into spasms. For nearly
5 year before she ceased to take refresh
ments altogether, she lived wholly. or near.
ly, upon the juice of dried raspberries. until
that became a source of suffering. Theo,
for a time, she took occasionally • small
quantity of cold water; and it is nolo .inetir
ly a year since she swallowed any liquid, to
the knowledge of any one. Indeed I have
no doubt that a teaspoonful of litinid, put
into her mouth would be the occasion olio r
(loth, unless tlinipasniudida action orher
throat should expel it. Any person to ace
her ten minutes must be satisfied that thirq
is no decePtion in her case. 11cr head rind
shoulders, one or the other, are in perpetual
motion. Shots frequently thrown forward,
until she is nearly doubled togetherand then
the head thrown Lack, and her neck li:erally
doubled, and the body forced back. and the
whole face, chin and all, entittl3 Luned in
the pillow. This is done several firm 4 tille•
CeSSIVely lit less time than I take in writing
it The last time in the sere: the face will
remain nearly buried in the pillow, and she
does not breathe for ten or fifteen minutes.
Once she remained sixty-two minutes with
out breathing• When this is over, and the
spasms passes off. she stniggles for hr call,
and her head is rolled from side to side al
most with the velocity of lightning (or a
moment or two ; the fare lw tomes red n the
the rush of blood to the head. and the skin
quite moist with perspiration. Then the
imams subsides into a gentle motion - Of the
jaw and shoulders, keeping bine, as one
would think, with the action of the heart.—
Iler akin about the face, neck, chest and
hands is delicate and hialthy as the Skin of
an infant. The pulsations of her blood a
bout the chest, neck, head and arms. gm'
exceediogly delicate, are quite regular.—
, Iler hair does not grow, nor is it WIT oft
her head, as one-would naturally suppose,
except a little just upon the crown. The
I , action of the liver is entirely suspended, of
course, The action and state of the lungs
are perfectly healthy. fhey hair! been
thoroughly examined by skillfol physicians
with the aid of a stethoscope, and are sup
posed to he perfect. Iler nourishment is
wholly from the attuo srhere. The last nu
triment, indeed the last swallow of water
she wasknOwn to take, was in the last of
June, 1857. The last time she was known
to be Anions widarbsaLd December_ When

and he rep. sled the blows until life u tii'ses•

were witnesses to the damning spectacle.
Aftei Morgan found his wife was dead, he
bade one of the stttldron bring him a log

Meantime the rumor of the murder had
been spread by the little children, who frsn

Morgan, who, it seems, made no effort to.

The prisoner, together with dire. Chain•

The Patent -Umbrella.
Beard, the Cincinnati artist, has•invented
a plan to atop that most incontrlnient and
unpuninhable crime, umbrella theft, which
we Intend to make public at the rink of vio
lating the patent laws.' We will tell the
story as he related it'.—
" had bought a line silk umbrella, and
/darted for the Burnet (louse, on a rainy
day, when I began to reflect urron my' ex
travagance, and to wonder, as IT tripped a•
long proudly under its broad and safe c..iv,•r,
whether or not it would go the way of all
umbrellas, and' leave me to the pitiless
peltinga of the atorit" before the fifty MBA
over, True I could by my hand ; but
then occasionally T wee-so absent-minded
that , l would be Joat as apt to aet down in a
publicbar-mm, or even to hare it quietly
taken out ofniy hand by some adroit pur
loiner." Suddenly an idea occurred. T
stepped in a hardware store and pnrebefted
a small padlock.
On arriving at the hotel, I closed my um-

the most perfect confidence in the public
rack,. Lie.ai not Int eraiting_for a custom
er. A splendid looking follow, with a goatee
and moustache, stepped up with the moat
'erfect nonchalance and took my identical
umbrella,. I quietly sauntered toward the
door, giving a casual glance at the weather :
my herb essayed to spread the sheltering silk:
but alas! it was no go—again I Still worse.
What the deuce was the matter I lie look
ed, saw the trap, and the fall of his counte
nance was exactly the step from the sublime
to the ridiculous I had so often heird or,
but never seen before. My umbrella was
quietly deposited in its place, and my gen
tleman meekly sauntered towards the slid
ing room and slipped out of another door um
brella-less.
I was by no means satisfied with one ex
periment. In a little while I Raw one of the
most bramfrapprciriators of small things
(he was especially hard on lunches and
drinks—free) in all Cincinnati•
" Now," said t, "ix My chance. , '
This customer had an article in his hand,
which might in courtesy be styled the "ghost
of a umbrella," and cotton at that. With
a gran. iloquent air, be deposited it right a
long side of mine, and wont to the bar.—
There he picked up a treat and eat crackers
and cheese enormously. Thence to the read
ing Tooth, with my eye still on h'm, And in
less than a minute, with a shrug, and but
toning ttp his coat an extra button, he pass
ed in a rapid business manner to the door,
picked up My umbrella, with scarcely a
glance, as 6e went along. I was on hand.
With II sudden movement he attempted to
raise it ; no go !
Again ! Still a failure ! With a decision
perfectly Napoleonic, and worthy of the oc
ciution, he was about to tear away the slight
obstruction, when I stepped up and said :
" Don't do Unit ! I'll lend you tho key:'
"Ah ! Mr. Beard. Ila ! Strange mistake
—thought it wow my own. Unol device
think I'll adopt it."
And with the most perfect cam, he put
my umbrella down, took his own and ea
'nosed,
I was satisfied. I had found out how to
keep an umbrella—and now I am on my
way to Washington to get a patent for it.
Beautiful Anecdote.

which even a child may answer by it the
greatest of questions, and solve the sublira

, A little boy was asked in writing, " who
made the world I" Ile took the chalk, and
wrote, underneath the question, " In the be
ginning God created the heavens and the
earth." The clergyman then inquired in a
similar manner, " Why did Jesus Christ
come Into the world "1" Al smile of delight
and gratitude rested on the countenance of
theiittle fellow, as he wrote:
This is a faithful saying and worthy of
all aoception, that Jesus Christ came in'o
the world to save sinners."
