As I rapidly made the mesmeric
passes, amid ejaculations of “Dealt
dead!” absolutely bursting from the
tongue and not from the lips of the suf-
ferer, his whole frame at once—within
the space of a single minute, or even
less—shrunk, crumbled, absolutely rot-
ted away beneath my hands. Upon the
bed, before that whole company, there
lay a nearly liquid mass of loathsome—
of detestable putrescence.

“And now—now—I am dead."
From this period until the-close of last
week—an interval of nearly seven months
—we continued to make daily calls at M.
Valdemar’s house, accompanied now and
then by medical and other friends. AU
this time the sleep waker remained ex-
actly as I have last described him. The
nurses’ attentions were continual.
It was on Friday last that we finally
resolved to make the experiment of
awakening or attempting to awaken him,
and it is the perhaps unfortunate result
■ of this latter experiment which has given
rise to so much discussion in private cir-
cles—to so much of what I cannot help
thinking unwarranted popular feeling.
For the purpose of relieving M. Valde-
mar from the mesmeric trance I made
use of the customary passes. These for
a time were unsuccessful. The first in-
dication of revival was afforded by a
partial descent of the iris. It was ob-
served as especially remarkable that thia
lowering of the pupil was accompanied
by the profuse outflowing of a yellowish
ichor from beneath the lids of a pun-
gent and highly offensive odor.
It was now suggested that I should
attempt to influence the patient’s arm as
heretofore. I made the attempt and
failed. Dr. F----then intimated a de-
sire to have me put a question. I did so,
as follows:
“M. Valdemar, can you explain to ua
what are your feelings or wishes now?”
There was an instant return of the
hectic circles on the cheeks, the tongue
quivered, or rather rolled violently in
the mouth, although the jaws and lips
remained rigid as before, and at length
the same hideous voice which I have al-
ready described broke forth:
“For God’s sake! quick! quick—put
me to sleep—or quick—waken me! quick!
I say to you that I am dead!”
I was thoroughly unnerved, and for
an instant remained undecided what to
do. At first I made an endeavor to re-
compose the patient, but failing in this
through total abeyance of the will I re-
traced my steps and as earnestly strug-
gled to awaken him. In this attempt 1
soon saw that I should be successful—or
at least I soon fancied that my success
would be complete—and I am sure that
all in the room were prepared to see the
patient awaken.
For what really occurred, however, it

It was evident that so far death—or what i
is usually termed death—had been ar-
rested by the mesmeric process. It
seemed clear to us all that to awaken M.
Valdemar would be merely to insure his
instant or at least his speedy dissolution.

"M. Valdemar,” I said, “are you
asleep?” He made no answer, but I per-
ceived a tremor about the lips and was
thus induced to repeat the question
again and again. At its third repeti-
tion his whole frame was agitated by a
very slight shivering; the eyelids un-
closed themselves so far as to display a
white line of a ball; the lips moved slug-
gishly, and from between then;, in a
barely audible whisper, issued the words:
“Yes—asleep now. Do not wake me
—let me die so!”
I here felt the limbs and found them as
rigid as ever. The right arm, as before,
obeyed the direction of my hand. I ques-
tioned the sleep waker again:
“Do you still feel pain in the breast,
M. Valdemar?”
The answer now was immediate, but
even less audible that before:
“No pain—I am dying.”
I did not think it advisable to disturb
him further just then, and nothing more
was said or done until the arrival of Dr.
F----, who came a little before sunrise,
and expressed unbounded astonishment
at finding the patient still alive. After
feeling the pulse and applying a mirrof
to the lips, he requested me to speak td
the sleep waker again. I did so, saying!
“M. Valdemar, do you still sleep?”
As before, some minutes elapsed ere a
reply was made, and during the interval
the dying man seemed to be collecting
his energies to speak. At my fourth repe-
tition of the question he said very faint-
ly, almost inaudibly:
“Yes; still asleep, dying.”
It was now the opinion, or rather the
wish, of the physicians that M. Valde-
mar should be suffered to remain undis-
turbed in his present apparently tran-
quil condition until death should super-
vene, and this, it was generally agreed,
must now take place within a few min-
utes. I concluded, however, to speak to
him once more and merely repeated my1
previous question.
While I spoke there came a marked
change over the countenance of the sleep!
waker. The eyes rolled themselves slowly
open, the pupils disappearing upwardly;
the skin generally assumed a cadaver-
ous hue, resembling not so much parch-1
ment as white paper, and the circulaf
hectic spots which hitherto had been
strongly defined in the center of each
cheek went out at once. I use this ex-
pression because the suddenness of their
departure put me in mind of nothing so
much as the extinguishment of a candle
by a puff of the breath.
The upper lip at the same time writhed
itself away from the teeth, which it had
previously covered completely, while the
lower jaw fell with an audible jerk,
leaving the mouth widely extended and
disclosing in full view the swollen and
blackened tongue. I presume that nd
member of the party then present had
been unaccustomed to deathbed horrors,
but so hideous beyond conception was
the appearance of M. Valdemar at this
moment that there was a general shrink-
ing back from the region of the bed.
I now feel that I have reached a point
of this narrative at which every reader
will be startled into positive disbelief. It
is my business, however, simply to pro-
ceed.
There was no longer the faintest sign
of vitality in M. Valdemar, and conclud-
ing him to be dead we were consigning
him to the charge of the nurses when a
strong vibratory motion was observed in
the tongue. This continued for perhaps
a minute. At the expiration of this
period there issued from the motionless
and distended jaw a voice such as it
would be madness in me to attempt de-
scribing. There are indeed two or three
epithets which might be considered aS
applicable to it in part. I might say, foj
example, that the sound was harsh and
broken and hollow, but the hideous
whole is indescribable, for the simple
reason that no similar sounds have evei
jarred upon the ear of humanity.
There were two particulars, neverthe-
less, which I thought then and still think
might fairly be stated as characteris-
tic of the intonation—as well adapted
to convey some idea of its unearthly pe-
culiarity. In the first place, the voice
seemed to reach our ears—at least mine—-
from a vast distance, or from some deeii
cavern within the earth. In the second
place, it impressed me—I fear indeed
that it will be impossible to make my-
self comprehended—as gelatinous or glu-
tinous matters impress the sense of touch.
I have spoken both of “sound” and o^
“voice.” I mean to say that the sound
was one of distinct—of even wonderful-
ly, thrillingly distinct—syllabification.
M. Valdemar spoke obviously in rep!
to the question I had propounded to hit,
a few minutes before. I had asked him,
it will be remembered, if he still slept.
He now said:
“Yes—no—I have been sleeping—and
now—now—I am dead.”
No person present even affected to
deny or attempted to repress the un-
utterable, shuddering horror which these
few words thus uttered were so well cal-
culated to convey. Mr. L----1, the stu-
dent, swooned. The nurses immediately
left the chamber and could not be in-
duced to return. My own impressions I
would not pretend to render intelligible
to the reader. For nearly an hour we
busied ours jives, silently—without the
utterance of a word—in endeavors to re-
vive Mr. L---1. When he came to him-
self, we addressed ourselves again to an
investigation of M. Valdemar’s condition.
It remained in all respects as I have
last described it, with the exception that
the mirror no longer afforded evidence
of respiration. An attempt to dravz
blood from-the arm failed. I should
mention, too, that this limb was no fur-
ther subject to my will. I endeavored
in vain to make it follow the direction
of my hand. The only real indication
indeed of the mesmeric influence was
now found in the vibratory movement
of the tongue whenever I addressed M.
Valdemar a question. He seemed to be
making an effort to reply, but had no
longer sufficient volition. To queries
put to him by any other person than
myself he seemed utterly insensible, al-
though I endeavored to place each mem-
ber of the company in mesmeric rapport
with him. I believe that I have now re-
lated all that is necessary to an under-
standing of the sleep waker’s state at
this epoch. Other nurses were procured,
and at 10 o’clock I left the house in com-
pany with the two physicians and Mr.
L----1.
In the afternoon we all called again to
see the patient. His condition remained
precisely the same. We had now some
discussion as to the propriety and feasi-
bility of awakening him, but we had lib-

Sicilian Girls.
In some parts of the island of Sicily
the advent of a baby girl is looked upon
as such a misfortune that a small black
flag is hung out of the window to pro-
claim the sad event. The reason is not
far to seek. Having to be maintained
by the household as long as they are un-
married, and having to dower their
bridegrooms with a “dot,” girls are un-
profitable. Boys, on the other hand, are
soon self supporting, and they increase
the family wealth when the time comes
to bring home a wife by the amount of
the young lady’s fortune. Nevertheless
the girls, although kept in such strict se-
clusion that one hardly ever meets them
walking about, are said to be kindly
treated. At the age of 15 or 16 they are
disposed of in marriage according to an
arrangement, purely financial, between
the families concerned.—National Re-
