CIRCULATION SOOq
Perils of Frenaiare Burials. We remember vividly the horror produced, while yet in our boyhood, when an elder sister read from the Utica Obtcrvcr a story entitled "Buried Alive." fc- The person had fallen into a cataleptic condition, becoming cold and rigid while yet con--r acionit, and was duly coffined and buried. He was exhemed by resnrrectionists," carried to a medical college, and placed on the table of the demonstrator of anatomy a few .shocks of the galvanic battery partially aroused him, and on the wounding of his breast with the knife, he gave signs of life, and by proper treatment he was fully resuscitated. TeD or twelve years afterward a relative where we were visiting, told us of having been present when the body of her son-in-law was made ready for the coffin, and perceiving, as she imagiued, a warm spot on the left breast, a daughter who was sittiog by as this was told, cried oat with horror, Do not talk anj more of it the idea is too dreader ful to think of." But wo did think over and over again of the horror of interring a living person. It was hardly probable, in the case in question, that such a case did occur, for the body remained unburied long enough to allow a return to consciousness. But in this country the peril of interment, before death has actually taken place, is often very great. For years past it has been very common for persons in supposed health to
fall
down suddenly, with every appearance of having died. We do not regard sudden death with horror, as it is often painless, and exempts the person from .jqi, the anxiety and other uapleasant experiences which so often accompanies a lingering dissolution. But there is a
Tearful liability of being prostrated
by catalepsy—
THE COUNTERFKIT
O DKATII
ut^jer such circumstances that the persons having the body in cliargc will not hesitate about a prompt buriif al. We could wish that the old Oriental practice of cremation was iu fashion among us. There would be at least the comfortable reflection of no suffocation in a coffin besides, the application of fire would generally arouse the cataleptic person to a manifestatiou of life. Some two years ago a story vas copied into the Rochester
Democrat, purporting to be tho expeTience of a man in a low state of health, who was compelled to seek shelter in a deserted house in Illinois, where he fell asleep. Lie was fouud there in a cataleptic trance, and supposed to have died. In this condition he was removed and prepared fur burial, couscious all tho time of what was going on, but unabie to utter a sound or make a sign of life. Ilis condition was fortunately discovered bnfore it j- was too late. Tho story may be a fiction, but it did not read likeijne. Wo .'•have several times repeated the story, although it is too serious for a jest, except whon regarded entirely oa the
rated with bis blood. We know nothing of the accuracy of the story. Bod ies have been removed from old to new "burying-proands, several of them haviog toroed over in the coffin. Perhaps this phenomenon is produced by the 'mechanical force of the gases which
TOTAL EXTINCTION OF LIFK are not so unequivocal a3 many suppose. Cessation of respiration aod circulation cannot afford positive evidence, for the external senses are not sufficiently acute to enable us to detect cither respiration or circulation in the smallest degree compatible with mere existence. Loss of heat is not conclusive for life may continue and recovery take plrce where no perceptible vital warmth exists. 1^ is customary in some places to cut or amputate a finger, relying oo the flowing or non flowing of thc^ blood to re* veal the actual fact. Perhaps vesciation would be equally sure. Heat or an irritating substance could be applied to the skin—the occurring of a blister is evidence of vitality. Foubort proposed as a test, to cut into the intercostal spaces and feel the heart with the finger. Holding tho fingers before a light is said to be sure—a redness being apparent in the living subject, but none iu case of death. Galvanism has been supposed to furnish a certain test. Irritability is extinguished first io the left ventricle, then the intestines and stomach, next
ludicrous side, of a wom-m, who, while in the bladder, afterward in the right borno to the place of interment., was aroused to consciousness by the jost.f ling of tho coffin against the walls of a .«house, as the bearers clumsily turned the corner, fehe
W.H speedily released
from her ceroinents and conveycd home, where she lived several years longer. She fell into a decline and died the funeral agaiu took place and tho processioa set, out for the grave. AB it drew near to tho house at the oorncr, tho husband wiped his eyes hastily, and cried out to tho bearers,
BE CAItKFUi, AS YOU TURN THE CORNER!" It Is, howevrr, no topic for a jest when wo consider the subject from the proper point. Persons are buried alive, and have a terrible period of "Ropy before death comes to their relief. We execrate the old Roman law whioh authorized the magistrates to •bury alive their incontinont vestal virgias. The Thraoians, after the prac
tice of India, burned widows. Amestris or Esther, queen of Xerxes of Persia, caused fourteen living children to be interred, and till lately, Hindoo widows were buried or burned-alive at Suttees. But we, in our reckless carelessness, do as badly as they. A wri*be Nineteenth Century informs that at the public mortuaric of PariHs about onein every threo hundred persons supposed to be dead actually comes again to life. At that rate ono hundred persons must be buried alive annually belonging to the city of New
York and hero, too, not a tithe of the precautions are taken that are required in France and Kngland.
A well authenticated case is on record of a strong man dropping away suddenly, whose gravo or tomb was opeood lour days after, and the body found twisted around in the coflin, and a hip dislooated, the hair turned white and torn out, and the features distor ted inn horrible manner. Fearful was the struggle nf the man in his ghastly conflict for Iifo with every odd:1 against him. A young woman also, beautiful io person and intellect, was buried ia the usual hurry, some ten years ago. The body was afterward taken up l'or removal to a distant cemctary. She, too, had been engaged and worsted in ,a terrible struggle for life. Her face was gashed, her hands and arms frightfully torn, her feet drawn up in a wild endeavor to extricate herself from the Horrible prUoo, her face furrowed and lacerated by her Sogernails, so desperate had been the struggle. A young man in another city waa thus buried, and his grave opened •is days afterward. The body had turn«d upon tbe face, and the arm was bitten to tho booo, tod there were other EVIDENCES OP TBE DEATH-WRESTLlkO.
We remember that the ptory was told, several years ago, that Lorenzo 5'
~P*rd' lawyer of "b® diad in the apparentactually recovered after TaUraeot, and that tba cloths •bo«t his faca were t«uad to be lata-
ventricle, then in tho oesophagus, and after that in the iris. The muscles of the trunk finally give way, the ex tremities, and tbe auricles. The col lapsed edge of a wound in a dead body in tbe distinction from a gashing wound in a living "one, is the re suit of a peculiar irritability, the extinction of which is one of the surest indications of death. Flaccidity is a certain sign of death putrefaction is is unequivocal. Belladonna or the Calabar bean applied to the eye, it is said, will sensibly affect the iris if the person is living. The number of persons who have
REVIVED AT THE LAST MOMENT about to be consigned to the coffio, is fearfully great. The numbpr known to have been actually buried alive is already sufficient to justify extraordinary precautions in e*ery case. Babier collected tho details of fifty-two cases of persons buried alive, of fiftythree who recovered without assistance, after they were laid in their coffins, aud out of seventy-two falsely reported a9 dead. Legislation ought to bo interposed in this matter. The law should require the examination of tbo body by a medical man or expert before, permitting his interment. When a physician has been employed he should be obliged to certify to actual death, unless the unequivocal evidences of dissolution had already appeared. Undertakers and others having charg6 of funerals should be compelled to ascertain that death has occurred before coffining tbe remains. The idea of suffocation in a coffin is more terrible than that of torture on the rack or burning at tho stake. Carelessness cannot be innocent even ignorance in such a matter is akin to crime. A mockery is our sorrowing, our tears are little better than bypoc risy, when wo negledt precautions against this terrible fate to which every one of us is thus liable. 'i_
Daniel Webster's Kscapes. In connection with the recent calamities on tbe Mississippi, tho following passage from the exordium of Daniel Webster's address in the Supreme Court, in opening the case of the Merchant's Bank of Boston vs. the owners of Steamboat Lexington, will be of interest.
In January, 1840, the steamboat Lexington was destroyed by fire in Long Island Sound, on a voyage from New York to Stonington, in Connecticut. The Merchant's Bank of Boston owned a sum of money in specie, whioh had been shipped on board tbe Lexington, and brought his action, in the form of a suit in Admiralty, against the owners of the boat, to recover the amount so lost. On tl.e 14th of February, 1840, just after my return from Europe, I lefc Boston for Washington, and expected to embark at Stonington on board of tbe Lexington for New York. On tbe evening of that d»y I arrived at Stoning-
ton, and was met by the shocking news that the night previous this boat had been burned, ^nd that out of one hundred and forty passengers only two escaped. In May, 1845, I was to leave Albany (whither I had been on professional business) at srt o'clock in
are generated by decomposition, bat the afternoon. Two steamboat* were' who knows? We have reflected much at the landing bound for New York— upon this subject,'and not without the Rochester and the Swallow, ij much anxiety. There is actually little asked a friend at the inn which boat protection for any of us from this I should take. He remarked that terrible peril. We exhaust our ener- both were good vessels. I bade him gies by overwork, excitement, too decide for me. He decided in favor much fatigue of the brain, the use of of the Rochester. I went on board tobacco, sedatives and anaesthetics, of that boat. Both started at the same I
and by habits and practises which hasten trie three sisters in the spinning of "the "fatal thread. Apoplexy, palsy, epilepsy, are likely to prostrate us at any moment and catalepsy, perhaps, is not far from any of us. This la^t affection is characterized by a loss more or less complete of consciousness,
with a peculiar rigidity of the muscles, of November, 1846, I intended to have causing the body and each part of it left Boston for Wa-ihingtoD. so a3 to to retain the position in which it may intercept the steamer Atlantic at Norhave been at the moment of attack, or wieh, but the threatening weather inin which it may afterward be placed duced me to put off my departure. It may attack both siJes of the body. On the 27th I left, aod reached Nor one side only, or a single limb or org» wieh at one o'clock in the af'ternojn, Sometimes it preceded by signs of but found the boat not there. She nervous disorder, and at other times left on the 25th. and was seen riding it occurs without any previous waru- at anchor, off Fisher's Island, with mg symptoms.
ANY STRANUK K.MOTION,
and unusual or protracted intellectual exertion, :reat physical eshjiustioo, unsatiated sexual desire or excessive indulgence, the retrocession nf a cutaneous eruptioB—in shorr. anything that debiliates the system will produce this singular attack. Of course, as with most disorders, it is occasioned in males by disorders of the digestive system, and in females with disease of the womb. Caution should, therefore, be observed and surfeiting, undure exposure to extreme heat or cold, overtasking the brain, excessive bath ing, mental excitement, sexual abber rations, the uso of tobacco or anaesthetics, unwholesome postures in bed, &c., should be carefully avoided. When a peculiar feeling of stupor is perceived, the limbs "fall asleep"' without apparent cause, or there is an uueasincss and rigidity of any of tho muscles, with vertigo, lassitude, debility, and caprice of the mind, susceptible person should be on the alert, for there may be no time to waste. These are incipient symptoms of au attack. The signs of
ome of her machinery deraoge-1 (as was supposed.) but no one imagined ishe wa.j iu danger. A steamboat had gone to look alter her, and would be back it 4 o'clock on the 27th to take us on board, and proceed on our voy age. The hoar came aod with it the boat, her colors flying at half mast. The whole city rushed to the scene. Their feelings may be imagined when they saw twenty or thirty corpses laid oo the wharf—the dead from the wreck of the Atlantic. I
Moving amid the scenes of human life .«o near to disaster and accidents— if accidents they can be called—it may well bo supposed that I approach a subject like this with an earnestness beyond that arising from professional duty. In one aspect of the case, it involves ao important discussion—a discussion respecting the responsi bility of the steamboat owners, who are bound to use extraordinary care and vigilance in the preservation of the property and life intrusted to their hands
Anccdotc of
Stent:i
A. Douglass.
In his reminiscences of public men by Mr. Forney, prepared for his Sunday Press, he gives in his last some recollections of Stephen A. ,I},ouglass. lie says "To him I am indebted for my first aud ou]y speculation—the better to be recollected because it was success ful. Aod the incident is the more interesting because, just now, the region where I made my money is the point whence one of those empire lines is going forth to penetrate the wilderness and to convert it, into a garden— I mean the North Pacific Railroad. Stephen A. Douglass came to me one day in 1853, and said, looking uo at the map, 'How would you like to buy a share in Superior City, at Fond du Lac, the head of Lake Superior and, before I could answer, he got on a chair and told me that from thai, point, or near it, would start the greatest railroad iu the world, except in the oue on the thirty-secoud parallel!, just surveyed by Captains George B. McClellao, John Pope, and others, which was to open up the South. 'But,' I said, 'old fellow, I have no money, and to buy a share in the proposed location will require much.' 'No, he replied, 'I can secure you one for §2.500, and you can divide it with naming of the best of the i'u tuic Confederates, aud he will be greatly obliged.' I knew uothing of the location, had never been there, had no money of my own, but I saw Judge Djuglass was in earnest, and wanted to s^rve me, and when he left I borrowed the $2,500, bought a share, divided it with the Southern gentle man referred to, who honorably paid his §1,250, and after cutting my share into five parts, sold and gave threefifths to other friends, and with my two fifths bought the Waverly House iu WashioSton. The proceeds of my moiety of the share of Superior City realized rt §el,000. For that I was indebted to Stephen A. Douglass— God bless him I believe my Confederate friend has held on to his interest, and I shall be glad if be is as fortuuate as I was."
An Unfortunate Editor.
If there is an unfortunate editor in Indiana, it is F. S. Bedell, of the Crown Point Register. A year or so ago, the Editorial Association of this and the Tenth.District passed resolu tions of respect upon his death, which were copied by nearly every paper in the two districts, notwithstanding Mr. Bedell repeatedly, and at last indignantly denied that he was dead. And now the State Editor's and Publishers' Association, at their meeting in In dianapolis, last week, have passed a series of resolutions regretting the demise of F. S. Bedell, aud he has to again come forward and deny that he has taken the long journey. Editors, like ministers of a certaiu denomination, rarely die, and when one is reported dead, as in the case of Mr. Bedell, it is a difficult matter to hive it corrected, as he finds out.—South Bend Register.

It therefore behooves ths anti-Pruasian writers in this country, when they visit Europe, to give the dominions of King William a wide berth, or they may get into trouble.

noofland's Gorman Tonic
Was compounded for those not inclined to extreme bitters, and is intended for use in cases when some alcoholic stimulant is required in connection with the Tonic propcrlio3 of tho Bitters. Each bottlo of the Tunic contains one bottle of tho bitters, combined with pure Santa Cruz Rum, and flivored in such a manner that the extreme bitterness of tho Bitters is overcomo forming a preparation highly agreeable and pleasant to tLe palate, and contai ling the imdicinal virtues of tho bitters, Tho price of the Tonic is SI 5t) per bottle, which many persons think too high. They must take into consideration that the stimulant used is guaranteed to bo of a pure quality. A poor article could bo furnished at acheaper price, but is it not better topayalittle mora an I gat a better article?
