About seven yeors ago Henry's skin commenced turning white, assuming the lighter color and clear transparent hue common to the Causasian race, since which time his skin has been gradually changing until he is now about two-third white, and he is as spotted as any leopaid. The change, as we stated, has been going ou grad ually, but without any regularity ns to locality. Spots on his hands, arms, face and body are of as clear a color as that of tny European, while tho surrounding spots are in some places almost black, in others brown, and still others of a light yellow, the dif ferent shades marking the different de grees of progress of the change. Tho changed part of his skin, while pos sessing the clear, rosy tint of the Cau casian, retains' the appearance of coarseness common to the African race, but is extremely sensitive to the light and heat of the sun. Tho health of this person has been uniformly good, and lie can assign no reason why Lis 'skin should change." An old lady of Lowell, Massachw setts died at an almost centenarian age a few days ago.
