A SISour.AR C1ncu.sTr.rx.-The Cu':
paper (Va.) (.h,erreer says : A Fauquir cor.
responlent has written us a letter from
which we give the following current facts
About. thirty five years ago, a lady was
interred at Elk Run Church, in a heavy
black walnut. coflin. The earth wherein her
body was depoaited w(e.dry and )elloo, as
it. is for the most part in that locality. Of
two bodies burled in the same grave. thi'
lady's was laid deepest in the grittnd, an.
there being occasion to i"rtove the bodies
owing to the destruction of the grave yardi
enclosure by the Federal army, the grav.
was dug up nnew : but to the surprise of,
tha digger, when h1e had removed ilhue upet
colin, he perceived a quaantiay of hair, taat
had mado its way through the slits and crev.
ices of the coflin. The lid being taken otl,
there appefired a perfect resemublanoe of a
human figure; the eyes, the ,nose, mouth,
ears, and all other parts, being very dis.
tinct, but from the crown of the head to the
soles o' tle feet, it. was covered with very
long, thick and frizzled hair. Tte gravd
digger after examining it for sometime, hap
peneel to touch lie upper part of lie head
hut. was move suarpri,ed ahan before. ,mt
seeing ilie entire body shrink, and nothing
at last remained in Iis.hanl hut. a bundle of
rough hair, wtuich inscnsibly assumed a
brownish red colur.
Professor Rawls is of the opinion that
hair, wool. featthors, nails. hurus, teeth.
&c., are nothing but vegetables, and that it
is not, therefore. surprising t. see them
grow on liodies.a atimaailr after their death.
ltd goes so far si" to say these productions
may be Iransplanted ns iegdtables, and may
grow on a different plhtde f'ron that where
they first germinatet.
