The flexibility of tub two the usually rigid dead is produced by put ting a powder' called Dosia, into the ears, mouth and nostrils of the corpse. Thc following is related by an eye-witness: An exprimcnt took place in the month of October, 1783, when the cold was very severe. A 3'oang Dutchman having died in our factory, at Desima, I directed the ph'siciau to cause the body fo be washed, and left all night exposed to the air, on a tabic placed near an open window, that it might become completely stiff. Next morning several Japanese, some of the ff!f.nrv. nnd mvself. want to examine the corpse, which was as hard as a peice of wood. One of the interpreters, named Zcuby, drew from his bosom a sautocfc, or pecket-book, and took out an oblong paper, filled with a coarse powder resem bling sand. This was the famous Dosia powder. He put a pinch iuto thc ears, another pinch into the, nostrils, and a third iuto the mouth, and presently, whether from the effect of this drug, or some trick which I could not detect, the which had before been crossed tne arm." over the breast, dropped of themselves, and in less than twenty minutes by the watch the body recovered all its flexibili- A Rat Slory. A neighbor, entitled to implicit credence, relates a story of the cunning and intelli gence of a rat, more remarkable we think than any we have listened to. He says, being plauged with rats about his barn, he made various attempts to secure some of them with a trap, but without success. The trap used was made of wire, and was so constructed that on a rat entering and nibbling at the bait, the trap would spring and cage the intruder. The man, upon frequenth' finding the bait gone, concluded he would watch the trap. Soon half a dozen rats made their appearanc, and among them one that seemed to have more years than the others. He advan ced slowly and cautiously towards the trap, and when the others would make a move as if intending to rush to the bait, the old fellow would wag his tail, and irr trniilfl f?s 1 1 lipJiinrl him. " ... After viewini the trap closely, the oM fellow approached the back part of it and gctteng on it, shook tbe raided part until thc trap sprung and then put a paw through one of the openings between the wires, and taking tho bait off, made his retreat with it. The same thing was re peated the second time thc same afternoon Our neighbor, determined not to be out- generallcd by a rat, set a common trap in a keg, and covered it with Indian meal. culprit entered thc la due- time the old ci keg aud was secured cate. Wilkesbarro Ad- A friend of ours, who possesses a quiet vein of humor, was recently on a visit to ' J Mawland. and relates an amusing account .ml J of a 'colored chorus witnessed by the rc lator at one of the African churches. 1 The masculine darkies were arranged 'like four-apd -twenty blackbirds all in a row,' on one side, and the females on the other. The lattcr commenced the chorus with 'Oh! for a man oh! for a man oh! for a mansion in the skies;' to which the , former responded, 'Send down sal send ' down sal send down salvation to my1 sou!.'
