The daily phoenix. (Columbia, S.C.) 1865-1878, October 13, 1874, Image 1
BY JULIAN A. SEL/BY.
The latest phenomenon id a fellow in
Stauutou, Va., who eats glass. *T
went out," says the physician who de?
scribes it, "und secured a piece, about
one-third of u brokeu pane, und
brought iu suveral friends to witness
tho sight. He took the glass anil de?
liberately bit out a pieco about tho
6ize of a silver half-dollar, and chewed
it up with as much gnsto as if it hud
been a piece of bread, swallowed ir,
takiug afterwards a swallow of water
and bread, bo Baid, to get the particles
out of his teeth. He would have eaten
the whole picao, if I had requested, us
he had frequently eaten tumblers for u
drink of whiskey. He 6aid bo would
eat any kind of gluss except the co?
lored bottle glass, which hud poison iu
it. Ho was first induced to try tbo i s
perimuut about tbreo years ago, at the
?ape of Good Hopo, by a surgeon in
the British navy, who bet ho could est
all the glasses (eighteen iu nuinlni) at
a dinner party, which he did, aud bo
saw no reason why he rould not do ns
muoh, bo be tried it by eating ouly
three. Since that time he has eatt ti
gluss for the amusement of others, 1
over a thousaud times, with no disa?
greeable effect. The only difference
ho sees is, it gives him au appetite."
From Cbiua we have intelligence
that 60,000 Ohinese troops, bttug sta?
tioned uc Tientsin, a conspirucy was
discovered nniong them to eeizo the
city and massacre all the foreigners,
and that tho ring-lenders huvu beeu
' arrested. . This animosity ug<iint>t fo?
reigners is as deep-seated und genuine
in China as a similar feeling is in
California against tho Chinese, aud
probably springs from the budio cause,
as tho introduction of American
steamers on the Chinese rivers has
taken away the business of thousands
of male and female owners of small
boats. The conduct of many Ameri?
cans and Europeans who land in China
is well calculated to increase this feel?
ing, and the English war especially
gave foroe to it. A steamer plyiug be?
tween Cauton and Macao has been
seized by the pirates, the officers aod
crew murdered and tho vessel robbed,
bat the triumph was brief, bb the
pirates were captured.. Piracy seoms
to be a ohronio evil in Chinese! waters.
