to be treated precisely as their own ;end the workers
when they emerge, perform the various duties of
the community with the greatest energy and appa
rent good will. They repair the nest, excavate pas

REMINISCENCES OF TUE Resusermrsio.—lt has
been asserted by several very honest, but probably
incompetent persons that they have experienced a
consciousness of being 'out of the' body. Tlie case
of Carden and Von He!natant have been already
mentioned ; but perhaps the clearest and most posi
tive testimony to the fact is that given by Dr. Adam
Clarke, the learned
.Wesleyan, who when relating
his recovery from drowning, stated to Dr. Letisom
that during the period of his apparent unconscious
ness, he felt a new kind of life. These are his
words.—. All my views and ideas seemed instantly
and entirely changed, and I had sensations of the
most perfect felicity that is possible, independently
of rapture, for the human mind to feel. I had no
pain from the time I was submerged; a kind of
green colour became visible to me; a multitude of
objects were seen, not one of which however, bore
the least analogy to any thing I had ever beheld be
fore." When preaching in aid of the Humane So
ciety, at the City road Chapel, in London, he said ,
was submerged a sufficiently long time, accord
ing to my apprehension, and the knowledge I now
have of physiology, for me to have been so com
pletely dead as never more to exist in this world,
had it not been for that Providence which as it were
once more breathed into me the breath of life."
Mr. Green, in his Dairy, mentions a person wholtad
been hung, and cut down on a reprieve, who being
asked what were his sensations, stated that the
preparations were dreadful beyond expression, but,
that, on being dropped, he instantly found himself
amidst fields and rivers of blood, which gradually
acquired a greenish tinge. Imagining, that if he
could reach a certain spot, he should be easy, he
seemed to himself to struggle forcibly to attain it,
and then he felt no more. Here we find a green
color again mentioned as the last Impression on the
mind, which perhaps may be explained on the prin
ciple mentioned in the chapter on light. The first
effect of strangulation, is a retardation of blood,
which caused a red color to appear before the eye;
but green always succeeds to red, unless the eye
be directed to some - other color. It is interesting
to observe how, in the midst elite most violent strug
gle to which a human being can be subjected, the
soul dissociates itself from the past and the pres
ent, and interprets impressions in keeping with its
desire which seems ever to be capable of conferring
a new world of thought according to its kind.— The
use of the Body in Relation to the Mind, by Dr.
llfoore.
HIEROGLYPHICAL MICA PLATES MOH TIME MOUNDS ;
by E. Geo. Squire, (in a letter to Prof. Silliman)—
You have probably observed a paragraph, going the
rounds of the newspapers, credited to a journal
published at Lower Sandusky in this State, to the
effect that a number of inscribed plates or mica
were recently discovered on excavating an ancient
mound near that place. These plates are repre
sented in the account as oval in shape, measuring
seven by ten inches, and covered with hyeroglyphics
of different and beautiful colors, betokening a more
advanced and entirely different state of the arts
than has heretofore been discovered in the remains
of Indian tribes." As this announcement has creat
ed soma degree of interest, and elicited some in
quries, it will not be out of our place to observe
that one of the plates has been placed in our hands,
through the kindness, of a friend residing at the
point mentioned. The form of the plate and their
size are correctly represented, but the hieroglyphics
are nothing more or less that discolorations caused
either by the infiltration of a mineral solution be
tween the laminw, or by its presence at the period
of crystallization. The material is very well
known as graphic or hieroglyphic mica, a deposite
of which occurs upon the Schuykill, not far above
Philadelphia. AlthOugh the discoloration, follow.
ing the Planes of crystallization, fulls in places into
right lines, it seems utterly unaccountable that
they were mistaken for the work of man. This is
another illustration of the very loose manner in
which facts relating to our antiquities have been
placed before the world t—a looseness, unfortunate
ly, not entirely peculiar to newspaper statements.
The plates are very pretty specimens of the mine.
ral, and are each perforated, near one of the ends, I
with a small - hole. They were undoUbtedly used
for purposes of ornament. Mica is common in the ,
mounds, sometimes cut into the form Of scrolls
and other ornamental plates. I have taken a bushel
of the sheets from a single mound.
Tux Lotnsvmt.E MYSTERY.—A. few days ago, a
young lady walked into a clothing store dt 'Louis
ville% puMhased a suit of clothes (as she alleged) for
her husband, and then walked out. Not many
minutes after th 6 transaction she was seen in the
neighborhood of the store in the very. garnients she
had purchased for her husband. Curiosity `was ex.
cited—the police were on the qui tine—bat the
young lady some-bow or other, could not be found.
The Cincinnati Herald thus 'solace the mystery :
"We have at last found oui the secret of the
mysterious' lady who was the cause of so much
speculation at ; Loniseile. On Wednesday, as we
were informed by respectable authority, a drayman
on Main street,riear Sixth, was accosted by a young
gentleman, who asked him if ho knew where a car.
Lain person lived, mentioning the name of a keeper
of a house of ill fame. The drayman said that he
did. Whereupon the young gentleman offered him
five dollars if he would show him the hou se . R e
dtaedoind on 'arriving' was requested by the gen
tlemar"-co walk with him up. stairs, which he did.
When uo 6 .4irs,Lhe,strangernsked for Mary
e cur' 4° Wh ston he announced hiniself as her
bruhsyr whel n b s'.4:t not seen for years. Quite
a cant ensued when Mary asked for her slater and
family.—The supposed young gentleman announc
ed himself the sister, and opening his vest proved
it. Thereupon enusued tears showing a world of
natural affection, which was too real for doubting.
The couple then went out of the house, and taking
the Pittsburg packet, left the city. The disguised
sister had learnt the condition of the one here, and
had assumed this disguise that she might safely
gain admission and induce her to leave. She took
the drayman with her that she might run no risk of
personal danger."
What more touching illustration could be fur
nished of a sister's love?

ship, of that county, aged 14 years, was instantly
killed by lightning. The deceased was sitting on
a load of hay with two brothers, and a son of
Major Huston, when the electric fluid struck him
on the back part. of the head, and passed down the
spine, discoloring the skin slightly. None of the
other young men received any injury.
The horses attached to the wagon, four in num

killed. The deceased's eldest brother was on the
horse at the time he was struck by the fluid, and
received only a slight injury by the full of the

Look on this bridal robe of stainless snow:
Like this my cheek Is chill and marble-white ;
Thus droop my lunged eyes, while my young brow
Front Heaven's fair sunshine turns and prays for night.
Because I feel the gall of vain desire
Well o'er toy sick heart, like a veil of fire
Fainting and exiled here, my footsteps rove—
God keep thee, Mother, we shall meet above:
Those freshly knotted flowers—this bracelet fair,
I clasped so fondly—the gay masque—the ball,
Where whispered voices praised my steps and air—
They charm no longer. Smiles seem mockery all.
My spirit trembles with the leaf that leaps
Down where the clear lake, lapped In silence sleeps;
My spirit flutters with the ascending dove—
God keep thee, Mother, I ant thine above:
Oh ! fear not for thy child, nor let thy heart
Faint nt the footsteps of the coming One :

plaints arising from impurities of the blood, are re
quested to read the following testimonials, in proof

medicine.
READ! READ!! READ !I, I.
We, the undersigned, having visited Mr. Isaac
Brooks, jr., at the office of Messrs. Rowand and
Walton, 376 Market street, Philadelphia, consider
his case the most remarkable one we have ever
witnessed or heard of.
His disease was SCROFULA, and terrible must
have been his twelve years' conflict with the des
troyer !
His Palate, the entire roof of his Mouth, Nose,
Upper Lip, and Lower Lid of the Right Eye have
been destroyed, his Face nearly eaten up, and part
of the Jaw Rone carried away. And yet we can
give no description of his case.
B. informs us that in January last the whole
interior of his mou'h, as well as most of his face,
was a mass of deep and painful ulcers!
On the 14th of January last, lie commenced
taking Dr. CULLEN'S INDIAN VEGETABLE PANACEA,
which checked the disease to a few days, and from,
that time the cure has progressed without inter
mission.'
New flesh has supplied the place of the deep
ulcers, and though badly disfigured, his face is
sound, and his general health is restoted.
We are assured that in the treatment of Mr.
Brooks' case, no Mercurials, Ointments, or Caus
tic applications have been used—in fact the Pana
cea alone, has wrought this wonderful change.
