Double Baby, with Two - Heads, Two 1
Pairs . of Arms, Two Chests,_Two Stem- -;
achs, Two Hearts, and Two Pairs of
Lungs.
We stated a few days since, that a strange
case of-matfOrma.tion.had occurred at Lancas- ,
ter, in this State, end promised a more full ,
description of the curious production, which ,
we hoped to gain at•the hands of some of our
. medical friends.
From the tower extremity of the breast-hone
—where the junction of the two bodi e s ta k es :
place—upwards. there are the -upper parts of
two perfect and well developed infants—two
heads, two pairs .of arms, -two chests, two
stomachs, two hearts, two pair of rungs and
two livers. From the same point t:ownwards,
the blending of the two systems into one be.
comes-more and more intimate, until it seems
almost perfect -and complete. The intestines ;
and all the lower organs. are in common with,;
com mon tertuinii, and the le,; made up of the 1
right leg of one and the left legs of the other ;
sre a pair, standing in the proper position rela
tive to each other and to the organs in _their ;
vicinity. In the rear, however, the union is
less perfect, there being two well developed!
spines, each terminating in a separate is 1
is;-and,_whax-is_p 1
two inner legs, dislocated at the hip joints, are I
thrown backwards and upwards, and joined I
together, are found passing under the true skin
of the back of the body upon the-right. the
feet being extricated - and standing up. heel
t o heel, nearly in its face.
- The child. is a female, with apparently a
perfect sexual organization. The bodies do
not exactly face each. other, but are more near
ly face to face than side to side._ One is ap
parently somewhat more robust than the other,
and it is evident that in many of the character
istics of their constituents they are different.
As one is capable of suffering while the other
is unconscious of pain, it follOws that their
-nervous systems are several, front which it is
inferred that in case they should survive, each
will possess a character and individuality of
its own.
This strange phenomenon is the offspring of
respectable parents at 'Lancaster . . Although
delicate, it is thought the chances are in favor
of its surviving. The case is in the hands of
Dr. Boestler, one of the ablest physiciaps of
the State, whose skill in its treatment is spoken
of in terms of high commendation.
One Week Laterfrom Europe
HALIFAX. Feb'. 14.—The Royal mail steamer
Asia arrived here this morning, with Liverpool
dates to Saturday. February 3d, being one
week later than previous advices.
The , news by this arrival is quite interesting,
and politically highly important;
As.predicted by the last arrival,
,the resig
nation of Lord John -Russell haS been followed
by that (4, the entire ministry. and up to the
latest moment prior to the sailing of the steam
er, no new cabinet had been constructed:
Lord Derby had been sent for and invited to
form a new ministry, but he was unsuccessful.
Lord Palmerston,- Russell and Lansdowne
sre all spoken of in connection with the forma
tion of the new cabinet. The greatest anxiety
prevailed in reference to the matter.
From the Crimea the accounts represent that
no fighting of importance had taken place, but
supplies were arriving and the condition of the
troops improving.
A slight triumph has been gained by the dip
lomacy of Prussia over Austria, the former's
proposition to prevent the mobilization of the
Germanic army having been - carried against
the efforts of Austria in the diet.
England has made a loan 'of .L 1.000,000 to
Sardinia.
The Russian army is to be placed on the
war k oting.
Prussia refuses to permit the French army
to match through her territory.
The French force to guard the Austrian fron
tier is composed of 80,000 men.
The Greek difficulty has been arranged.
Reports from Spain represent Mr. Soule, the
American' minister, as being seriously ill.

cha's Secretary and Two .dmericans.
NEw ORLEANS, Feb. 14.—The steamer Em
pire City arrived here today from' Ila - vana,
with dates to the 9th instant. .It was rumored
that an attempt had been made to take the life
of Concha. At night the palace was illumi
nated for a public reception, but at eight o'-
clock the gas was suddenly turned off, when
it is supposed the conspiracy was discovered.
Eighty arrests were made, including Concha's
secretary and. two Americans.
The Cubans ate extremely apprehensive of
a descent of fillitiusters.
.NEw Ont,EAxs, Feb. 16.—Advices from'Ha
vana slate that a squadron of Lancers had re
v ;lied at Pinar del Rio, and the Island was in
g ea! excitement and confusion. Numerous
a-rests had been made and bodies of troops
were moving in all dtrections.
ORIGIN OF THE FRENCII SPOLIATION CLAIMS.
—There is still much speculation afloat as to
whether the President will or will not veto the
French spoliation bill passed - by' Congress.
The historical facts upon which• these claims
are founded are stated to he as follows:
In the years,l7BB-'9 the United States were
in a state of -quasi war with the then Republic
of France. Privateers cruised and made cap
tures ; national vessels met and fought on the
high seas,: and nn land there was the array of
armies, in anticipation of a formidable war.
Then came the revolution which placed Bona
parte at the head of the French government.
The United States urged upon France indem
nity for the confiscation of the.preceding years.
It was answered that they were made under
authority of a government that had passed
away, and like assignatsand continental money,
they no more had a value. In short, the French
government refused to acknowledge or satisfy
these claims ; but as the urgency of them by
the United States was disagreeahle, they had
inserted in the treaty for the purchase of Lou
isiana a provision that the further prosecution
of these claims by our government should be
discontinued. It is upon this provision that
these claims rest.
A SNAKE IX THE Sxow.—lt is no unusual

the aRUli'
Shocking Scenes EA an Execution 'at New
Orleans.
Wilhem Jung was hung at New 17Ft6a - n:s on
the 2d inst.. for the murder of an orphan hop,
of whom he was the gttardiari. We gather
from the papers of that city the following ac
cottnt of the revolting scenes that preceded the
execution :
_Three days previous he attempted to commit
suicide with a knife, which he had in some
mysterious manner procured and which he had
sharpened on the brick walls of his - solitary
cell. His windpipe had been cut ; and his
throat. from ear to enr. had been hacked with
a desperate, misdirected energy, which left it a
complete mass of mangled flesh. He had also
stabbed himself in the side, and attempted to
butt his brains out against his dungebn walls,
but without avail.—The wounds were bound
op with lint and linen. but it was with great
difficulty he could be kept alive until the day of
execution. It appears, however, - he . walked to
the gallon's with a firm step. So soon as the
drop fell, the wounds' of his neck were opened
afresh, presenting a horrible sight. The knot
of the rope caught him directly under the Chin,
throwing his head back, and he lived for some
time, struggling most desperately. The wind•
pipe was entirely severed—the blood flowed co
- .fl I • s
throat and month. stainin *.his
white neckerchief 'and cap—and the wind rush
ed through the bleeding opening with a fright
ful, most unearthly loud report, which caused
every spectator in the yard to shudder and turn
away his face in horror. The agony of the suf
ferer must have been intense. Ills legs and
arms, although thinly tied behind his hack,
writhed about for at least ten minutes. The
veins Of his hands increased in size. Oct',
hanging about fifteen minutes, Dr. Sabt.stier
pronounced him dead, and his body was cut
down and placed in a rough coffin, and soon the
ghastly,- lifeless form of the child slayer was
forever hid from mortal gaze..
INDIAN HOSTILITIES IN THE NORTHWEST.
Prospect of Wor with the Sioux.—The last
mail brings to the delegation, in Congress from
lowa tidings that indicate a war , ,with the Siou x
Indians. —The =mediate scene of hostilities
is hear the mouth of the Big Sioux river, in
the northwestern- portion--of—the-State ; but,
frcim a letter received from the Governor of
lowa, it appears that about 50(1_ warriors, of
the Yancton and Siston Sioux have also en
camped near Fort Dodge. on the Des Moines
river, in the central 'part of the _State. The
Washington Union says:
It is, represented that the Sioux Indians are
claiMing that they still own the land lying be
tween the Little and Big Sioux rivers, and that
they intend to occupythe same, and plant corn
there during the coming season, notwithstand
ing that portion of the' State was long since
purchased by - the United States, and is now
occupied by white settlers. It will -be recol
lected that the Black Hawk: war originated
under a precisely similar state of affairs 4 and
experience in our. intercourse with the Indian
tribes of the Northwest teaches the importance
of providing means for the immediate suppres
sion of these difficulties."
