LKTIK.V xi FIN o ?riTiiovT FOOD OR DRINK. [Several C-.trioas Examples. The pending investigation concerning thc death of the Welsh fasting girl reminds the Tal! Hall Gazette of several curious instances of long abstinence from food in the sixteenth century. It .ays : In 15S4 there was a case of a girl at Heidelberg which caused so much wonder that the Count Palatine appointed a commission of Ave matrons to watch her, and they reported that her absti? nence both from food and drink was complete, and in an account published in Frankfort in 1587 there is an advertisement to the effect that the girl still remained In the same state. A few vears after, Jane Baton, thc daughter of | a locksmith in a village near Poictiers, became celebrated nuder the title of the "Maid of Confo lans" or of "Poitou." In her eleventh year, alter a violent attack or vomiting, she remained specch . less for nearly a month, and thenceforth, though sh? recovered all her faculties except the com? plete use or one hip, she could take neither meat nor drink, and even declined thc sucking or sweet? meats, which thc Knghsh narrator truly tells us are "agreeable to such young years." At thc time he tells thc story, she had fasted near three years, but in all other respects had . et urned to her ordinary occupations-sleeping, spinning and marketing, and making herseir in no way an object or compassion, although "sometimes rrom her eyes Issued a few tears." But a fuller and more interesting account is that or a boy named Codean, given by "Simeon de Provcncheres, M?decin du Boy," or which wc have before us the fourth edition, printed at Sens in 1616. It consists or live discourses, going vcr r elaborately into all the physical conditions or the case. Including the autopsy or thc youthfol prod? igy. We will not reproduce the scientiito de? ductions or thc worthy doctor, Inasmuch as very few of his premises will stand the test of modern discovery; but the facts respecting his patleut are stated with simplicity, without any apparent credulity, and with no application to any espe? cial theory. The state of abstinence from food and drink lasted four years and eleven months. The flrat essay was written before the chUd was taken to Fontainebleau, to be shown to the King and Queen, and had returned home much exhaus . ted with the journey. At that time the' doctor had only known the case by credible testimony, but he was then de? termined to judge for himseir. Codean was brought to his house by his parents, apparently without any difficulty, and folly examined to hts satisfaction. A short time arter he persuaded the father to leave the child alone with him for some days, and be gives the most complete details or its demeanor and condition. Ile was a pleasant, handsome little follow, rather/nrowte at first, but soon adapting himself to a new life. Ile slept comfortably alone, said lils prayers devoutly, was easily amused, and full of activity. The subject of food or drink was never mentioned, as it seemed to annoy him; but he made no difficulty in Ettling at table with those who were eating, . and would even say grace. The vlBlt was repeated on two other occasions, and at the last the doctor found him stronger and firmer on his legs, but not grown iu height from Ahe time he first saw him. All this time his tongue wes red, his breath pure, and his teeth clean. About the end of the second year or his fast, he l<?t the use of his legs, and was confined. ? ?Q Iiis beti for three months, having before usually slept on a paillasse with his clothes on; at the end of that time he suddenly recovered his strength, and went about as before. A short time after he was attacked with smallpox, which he took light? ly, and the pustules soon disappeared, without in? jury to the skin. His usual occupation was that of watching in the fields, and he was very adroit In snaring and netting birds. One day having returned from Seas, and complaing of the heat", ne asked his father to go and see a surgeon who had promised him a gun, and during his absence fell into a high fever. In Uils condition he put a pitcher of water to lils lips and wetted them, but would not swallow 1 a drop, thongh evidently enjoying the coolness on his face and hands. His rather returning with? out the gun, he seemed vexed, but soon said, "It would do me no good now," mid attrr two days' unconsciousness, expired. The dissection showed that the child died or inflammation of thc lungs. The upper portion or the oesophagus was found to bc tightly compressed, but the lower part open and tull or thiuk phlegm. There were several dead worms in the body. M. de Provenchcres's theories on this prodigy excited much controver? sy and objection, but there does not seem to have arisen In auy quarter any suspicion or Imposture or collusion, in another account or the same chHd, lt is mentioned that Monsieur Siby, another doctor, geing to see him, could not get him to take his hands from his face, which the mother explained by his terror, lest food thould be pre? sented to him by any one. Instances are not wanting or three strange affections among the higher classes or society. A certain Marquis de Pizany, an Italian diplo? matist, was never known to drink; and on a visit or the King and Queen or France to Blois in lois, a gentleman rrom Provence was presented to them who had the pecu Iarity or living without food or drink, with the exception or sometimes rinsing his mouth with a Utile sugared water. He was apparently a man or condition, and at? tended by two servants or line person, lively con? vection and good manners. Under thc pre? tence or not knowing where he came rrom, but no doubt for tho purpose or testing his physical Singularities, the magistrates kept him m dt-r ar? rest for a fortnight, but they could detect no fraud, and alter having borne his imprisonment with much good humor, he was conducted back to his hostel, which he soon left to return home. Now, allowing every scope for exag?ration, and every probability or occasional deception, these stories assuredlr Indicate a most singular physi? cal state of the human body lu relation to its or? dinary ailment, lt would be well ir the case under investigation at this moment could beso thoroush ly examined that it could bc known on how little nourishment this Welsh girl really futislstcd. and what were flic nervous conditions under which the abstinence became, as her mother expressed ir, "her only pleasure." The case or the Derby? shire malden, Martha Taylor-Mirablle Peed which was presented to the Roj ai Society towards the end or this same ccutury, deserves a" separate notice.
