Hon. E. Reed Myer.
MR MYER represents the 17th Senatorial
district, composed of the counties of Bradford,
Susquehanna and Wyoming. He is a son of
Mr. MYER, of Bradford county, who was a
member of the Legislature from that county in
the winter of 1822—'23. He was boru in
AVysox, Bradford county, one of the most
beautiful valleys along the Susquehanna river,
on the 25th of July, 1818. That port of the
country, at the date of his birth, was newly
am l sparcely settled, and the opportunities for
obtaining an education were exceedingly limit
ed. After taking the usual course ut a com
mon school, he was sent to a high school, but
W;l s soon called home by bis father to assist
him in his business. His father died at Col
umbia, Pa., in 1842, after which event he com
menced business for himself in lumbering and
firming, in which he has been engaged most
of tlm time since. In politics his antecedents
ore Whig, having always supported, with firm
ness and zeal, the principles of that party so
lone as it had any life and vitality. In 1855
he was the chairman of the Whig county com
mittee of Bradford county, and united in a se
ries of resolutions recommending to the Whigs
the propriety of taking into consideration, in
their primary meetings, the question of dissolv
ing the organization, which had become soni
fies and was a lucre living skeleton, and form
ing a Republican organization. The sugges
tion was adopted, and in 185' V he was nomi
nated as the Republican candidate for the Sen
ate, and was elected by a majority of over live
thousand one hundred, over the Hon. \\ M. M.
PIATT, late Speaker of the Senate, one of the
most popular Democrats of the district. This
is his first session in the Legislature, and but
little opportunity has yet been afforded him to
exhibit his qualities as a debater aud a public
man. His report, however, on the resolutions
relative to Kansas, made in the Senate, the
other day, ami just published, stamps him as a
writer of no ordinary capacity, and as possess
ed of a high order of talents. A career of use
fulness as a public man lies before him.— Har

An Extraordinary Appetite.
Charles Sumner, M. I)., of Rochester, com
municated the following particulars of a surgi
cal case which came under his practice, to the
li ihi Union of that city :
" Tin- subject was a young lady, nineteen
years of age, of nervous temperament, very
(j-althy, and the daughter of a respectable far
:.-r in Butternuts, Otsego county, N. V. She
t -t came to my office April 28th, 1853, to
. ive a needle extracted from her left arm,
: n. she said, ' got in accidentally as she was
ving a bundle of carpeting.' This, a medi
; sized sewing-needle, was soon found, and
extracted from the interior side of the fore
•::i. about midway between the wrist and the
• ibow. In less than a week she called again,
ving she had another needle in her arm. I
uimii-.ed and found deep in the bond of the
in, a hard substance, which proved to be a
■ die similar to the first, and accounted for
i a similar manner.
"One week after this, six needles were
bund, deep iu the flesh, about three inches
:n the elbow. May 29th, fourteen were ta
il eat, higher and more on the posterior side
the arm. 80th, seventeen were taken from
u arm and shoulders. Some of these were
- lfieial, lying just under the skin, but most
of them lay deep in the flesh, and a number
1 !y under the biceps muscle, One, of
ge size, lay with two-thirds its length im
e-idi-ii in the brachial artery. One large darn
needle was found lying directly on the bone,
' the intersection of the deltoid muscle ; this
it some inllamation and suppuration, which
to its detection. June 4th, twelve were
ivi-d from tin- left arm, two from the wrist,
veil from the left, and one from the right
•;ist. The whole lnunbci extracted during
month of June was eighty-seven ; Septem
r, ten : October, twenty-eight ; mostly from
left breast and left side of the abdomen.
About the last of November, 1853, she
attacked with violent spasms. These con
' ed about three weeks, and subsequently a
number of needles were found i> all parts
r left side, from the shoulder to the knee,
ii apparently asleep she would converse
i her mother, and tell Iter where the needles
-lit lie found, but when awake she could
nhe induced to speak of them. Also,
iin this sleeping or .somnambulic state,
" was entirely unconscious of pain. While
"J'-ir through deep muscle, or in the most
stive parts, we never could perceive a mo
■ii indicative of feeling—a number were cx-
V| i in this sleeping state—on the contra
'• ten awake, site experienced acute pain,
from the least incision.
! " From January, 1854, no needles were
• until the middle of the following sum-
"■viieii she resorted to pins, cutting ofl'the
■ mid thrusting them into the flesh. Snb
' i!y she used hair pins, either strnighten
:"i'i put in whole, or the broken halves.—
• were found deep in the large muscles of
' ugh. Several pieces of wire, and parts
• largest size of knitting-needles, nearly
•iches in leugth, were found lying directly
' hone of the thigh on the anterior side,
'lie whole number extracted was, of sew
' eclles, 29?, and these were of all sizes ;
'•7 ; darning needles, 2 ; hair-pins, f> ;
" tig-needles and wire, each 5 ; total, 383.
-t every means has been resorted to to
'iie reason for so strange a fancy ; but
- r has yet developed it. She is firm in
tiial of knowing when, how, or why she
-imply saying, ' It must be that I do
' 1 know no one else does.' She is per
i'fauc on every other subject.

Buchanan left suddenly for Wheatland.
COAI. FOUND.- —The Ilorseheads Republican
states that a very pure sample of anthracite coal
has been taken from the stone quarry on the
lands of JUDGE BENTT.Y, north of that village.
Something over a bushel of this coal has been
taken out of the rock fissures, where it was
found in layers of several feet in breadth, and
from two to three inches in thickness. It burns
readily, leaving a light white ash. The coal,
in qualiiy and appearance, resembles the Scran
ton. Along the same side hill out-croppings of
anthracite have been found at vaiidus times,
but not in large quantities, hitherto. The im
pression, that a large bed of anthracite exists
in the hill, gains probability with each new in
vestigation.
LANCASTER BANK. —In regard to thO affairs
of the Lancaster Bank, which institution may
be considered defunct, the Lancaster Intelligen
cer says :
r 'The Inventory of the assets of the Lancas
ter Bank, taken and filed by the Assignees,
shows a recklessness and profligacy of the
Directors truly surprising. The wonder is, that
the Institution did not blow up long since.
Thousands upon thousands of dollars were
taken from its vaults and converted to the use
of the officers without any responsible endorsers,
alnd in several instances no indorsee's at all.
In fact, the Bank seems to have been used as
a sort of a family concern, without any regard
to the interests of the stockholders or the pub
lic at large. The Inventory shows that the en
ormous amount of over 8300,000 is considered
entirely lost, the Appraisers considering those
debts of no value whatever."
ADJOURNMENT OF CONGRESS. —Both houses
of congress adjourned at 12 o'clock, M., on
Wednesday. The House adopted a resolution
of thanks to Speaker BANKS, offered by Mr.
AIKEN, of South Carolina, by a vote of 119 to
26.
The new coinage bill provides that the Span
ish and Mexican silver coins shall be received
at the United States Mint fur the space of two
years, at their full nominal value, in exchange
tor the new eents, the coinage of which is au

In this boronph. on the Ist instant. MARIA, wife of WM.
Unices, in the cist year of her aire.
The deceased made a profession of the religion of Christ
and was received into the Presbyterian Church of Athens
I'a., about thirty-four years ago, under the ministry of the
Rev. James Williamson. From that time until her death
ir may truly lie said, she adorned the profession she had
made in all the relations of life ; but under no previous
circumstances did the reality and the excellence of her
christian character appear so conspicuous as during her
last protracted and very painful illness. She endured as
seeing him who is invisible.
'• blessed arc the dead who die in the Lord."'
In the residence of J. A. Record, in this borough, 0:1 the

53 years and 1 day.
She Was born and always resided in this neighborhood.
Death came upon her suddenly ; —the struggles of nature
were severe, but her earthly sorrows were si on over. At
an early period in life she made a public piohssion of re
ligion-united with the baptist church in this b rough,
and remained in its fellowship until the day of her death.
Indeed, ou the very day 011 which she was seized with her
last illness, she had attended to church duties, took her
part in these with unusual earnestness ; and lias left roi m
t 1 indulge the hope that she has now entered into the joy
of her Lord. Her five children, and a large circle of other
relatives and triends—while they submissively bow to the

doing honor to, and in conferring a sub-t intiul kindness
011 the subscriber. This occasion, which took place at the
hospitable homestead of deacon J. HOMCT, was the more
note-worth}', as it was the fourth of the sort which had
taken place in their midst during tlic present season, the
interests of the other ministers in the It-trough having
been wisely considered. The manner in which the whole
was conducted would have <1 >ne credit to city-life any
