Slaving understood that the colored citizens
have taken the impression from reports in the
Sunday papers of the inSeting of the Commit

Bowman Sweitzer there denied having invited
them to join the procession of his

not requested Marshal Callow to assign them
Wills division. Deenase he had already invited
them. as will appear by his original order.
Published on >londay morning. May 11.1. which
read. ar follows:
"Colored soldiers and cis 'rens are requested

large underground cis rn, with pump.

fine vegetables, many of e now ready
for use. There are many' attractions too
numerous to mention, such as patent
swings, &e. It is' certainly the' most de

MONDAY MORNING,: MAY 30, 1870.
0;a: of the most extraordinary instances
of fenacity'of life is recorded in late Eng
lish papers. A woman died at the age of
for-sox, w'
from the age of two years,
had been confined to her bed—an idiot.
blind, and terribly 'deformed—and vet in
such a state as never to have suffered nor
acute pain. and never to have required
medical aid. Bread and cheese and ale
were her accustomed food, and 11, Appe
- tile was unfailing and her digestion per
fect; so that she is said to have passed her
time—if such a thing can be conceived—
pleasantly and happily. She died eud
tienly and unexpectedly, after her astral
supper, passing off, as it were, in a sleep.
A:1;00-mortem examination revealed the
'remarkable facts, that her chest was de
formed and her heart at n considerable
distance from its natural position, being
very large and a mess of fat, with no mus
cular tissues. The
were
WAS doublyeurvtd,
eurved, the bones were limeless and ph

out of place and deformed. The head was
.misphapen, and contained two quarts of
?
water. - It is marielous that such a mal
formed being co Id have lived at all, but
that life shouldtaro been prolonged as it

physical phen tenon .
which we . think
must be with , ut parallel. It is painful
to realize that the flesh in which we live
in heir to such ills; and the contentplation
of such n sightless, mindless, shapeless.
aimless, profitless existence,sets at naught
all. t henries of creation and of Providence.
