Resurrected After a Month's Burial.
Among the Yaqui Indians recently, according to a traveller, lived a youug girl who was accustomed to fall into trances from which only her mother could rouse her. On one occasion her mother went to Monterey, leaving the girl with the tribe. She had not been gone long before the daughter fell into a trance and no efforts could resuscitate her. The girl lay for several days motionless, and was at last pronounced dead and consigned to the grave. A month later the mother returned, and, learning what had been done, proceeded to dig her child up. The body had not changed in the least since being consigned to the grave, and when the cabalistic words were repeated the girl started up, and, after partaking of a cup [illegible] water, accompanied her mother home.
