THE WEEKLY TELEGRAPIT AND MESSENGER, FRIDAY JULY 25 1884. BROKER WICCINS'S EYE. It Mesmerizes Forty Cotton Men, but not tha Ceorgla wonder. Mew York Times. Mr. 'William H. Wiggins, ot Urookly n, is one of tlie handsomest of ihe solid members of the New York Cotton Ex change, and he is noted in the lower part of the city for the grace and dig nity of his tearing. Within the last few weeks Mr. Wiggins has developed mesmeric power, or at leeast his fel low brokers have made him believe he lias, and the dull season has been en livened by a great deal of fun with the mysterious influence thus exerted. It has not been an uncommon thing in the Cotton Exchange for Mr. Wiggins to mesmerize a dozen members at once, and cause them to follow him about at will, though it was always noticed that the spell lasted ouly until Mr. Wiggins approached a bnr, when all the mesmerized gentlemen would insist upon his relaxing his features— i.smiling—to pay them for the ne cessity he hud subjected them to of following him. Yesterday, at a secret meeting ut th- Co%>n Exchange, it was decided to delegate Mr. Wiggins to visit Wnllack’s Theatre and mesmerize I.tila Hurst, and about forty members of the Ex change were present last night to see him ao it. Mr. Wiggins went up on the stage with the second delegation of twelve experimenters that were call ed for by Mr. Paul Atkinson, the per ■petnal smiler, to do the chair act. He sat in statuesque grandeur while the wonder threw a few dudes over the footlights and knocked a brace of ex perimenting scientists througli the wings, and then there was a concerted shout from the forty members of the Cotton Exchange of “Wiggins!” “Wig gins!” Mr. Wiggins rose, thrust one hand into his IsiBom, placed the other upon his diaphragm, and liowed im pressively, while the spectators ap plauded frantically. Mr. Wiggins then bowed inquiringly to Mr. Atkinson and overpoweringiy to Miss Hurst, who giggled admiringly. Then lie advanc ed with a graceful inclination of liis body from the middle hinge that tiire# the audience into convulsions. “I would like,” lie said to Paul, “to test the power of the young lady in my own way, by taking her hand and in ducting her with mesmeric power.” Paul gave him permission, and Mr. Wiggins took Lula’s hand and gazed steadily in her face. “Lookme straight in the eye,” lie said, and tlie phenome non of the nineteenth century stared fascinated. The andieuce screamed with merri ment, but Mr. Wiggins beetled them not, though Lula almost chuckled Pier- sell into hysterics. He continued to gaze steadily into the translucent depths of her soft brown eyes, and , tho spectators cried: “Oh, you wick ed man!” “Stop that, Grandpa!” “Aren’t you ashamed?” until Paul suggested to Mr. Wiggins that he give somebody else a chance. Then the spectators howled for a speech, and “Bob” Frazer led Mr. Wiggins up to tho footlights, where he made another graceful bow, waved his arm in a dig nified refusal, and strutted back to his scat to watch the wonder hold a chair whllo four men attempted to put it down to the floor. But tho spectators would not rest while Mr. Wiggins was in repose, and led by the 40 wicked members of the Cotton Fx:bange, they gMtfamally shouted his name, and he was again and again forced to rise and bow, each time with deeper courtesy and more elaborate gesticulations, while the throng almost wept with laughter. Mr. Wiggins decided to allow Lula to lift him in a chair, bnt. he insisted upon being allowed to straddle it, and sit facing the back so that he might use his mesmeric power upon her. He therefore seated himself carefully,- folded Ids arms, and gazed steadily in Iior face again. "Tip the chair!” shouted the audience with concerted fWvlltry. The Georgia wonder, with malice prepense, gave the chair a twist, and Mr. Wiggins turned a double back somersault over it, made two complete revolutions, and brought up on his back, with his feet pointing toward the flics, whiletlio vast audience got right up on its hind legs and went frantic with delight, and cheered and screamed and howled with overpowering mirth, and and it really seemed as if the forty wicked membersNof the Cotton Ex change would expire with laughter. Mr. TViggina arose sadly, his raiment dnstv and disheveled. He gave Lula one glance of dignified and gentle reproach, and descended haughtily from the stage. After the performance was over his -mesmeric power drew the forty wicked numbers of the Cotton Exchange after him to the White Elephant, where it all deserted him. His friends say that Lsb has drawn it from him, and that he will never be able to control them twenty-four hours, and reaction either commences within that period or the patient dies in collapse or passes on into the tepid stage, which in ninety- nine cases out of a hundred ends speed ily in death. On the other hand, the sick person, having teen in tho col lapse stage of cholera some twenty-four hours lit may bo a longer or shorter period) Ihe temperature of his body may begin to rise gradually creeping up into tlie normal standard; tlie func tions of animal life are slowly restored and the sick person recovers his health. victims of witchcraft. How Two Superstitious Parents Were Cured ot Fancied Maladies. That the superstition of witchcraft still has possession of sonic people in this enlightened age, says the Philadel phia Record, is affirmed by Dr. Rich ardson, of the board of health, who recently ministered to two vic tims of that unholy weakness. They are both young women. One was suf fering from a contraction and paraly sis of the left leg of several weeks’ standing. Her family came from one of tlie northern English shires, and are confident that she was bewitched. After vain attempts to assure tlie pa tient and her people that the limb would perform its functions under the direction of a little will power Dr. Rich ardson stupefied the girl with chloro form. The contracted muscles relaxed with the rest of the system, and tlie next morning the patient was able to walk. Pr. Richardson’s other case Was a lady who was bent almost ’e,aml remained in bed almost constantly for eleven months. When ever the “witch," to whom she attrib uted her misfortunes, approached her, she evinced the most frightful parox ysms of excitement. Tho doctor sent her to the Pennsylvania Hospital, gave her a a harmless potion to take at cer tain intervals, and just as soon as she became homesick the cure of the fan cied malady and the belief in witch craft was speedy and complete. Polly Spoiled the Prayer. Boston Transcript. Mrs. Fogg is an active member of Itev. Mr. Textual's church; but her husband, be it said to his shame, can’t remember when he was laat inside of a meeting house, Mr. Textual's or anybody else'a. However, as be puts it. he doesn't inter fere with Mrs. Fogg’s amusements, and is perfectly willing she shall go to church every day in the week if She wants to. Although Mrs. F. doesn't avail herself to the full of her lord's permission, she is very regular in her Sunday attendance, and It was not at all strange that, after re. peated Invitations, her pastor should take tea at the Fogg manaiou the other even ing. gathered around the do mestic board, with Mr. Textual at Fogg’s right. Mrs. F. vis-a-vis. and the two little Foggs jointly occupying the remaining aide of the raralleloKrnru. The young fry were about to begin op erations, according to custom; but Fogg felt that the occasion called (or something appropriate on his part. So he checked the impetuosity ol their youthful appe tites, and addressing the reverend guest, remarked: "Perhaps Mr. Textual will be kind enough to ask a bleating,” The Immature Foggs stared in open-eyed ed wonder, their appelitea all forgotten, while from tome unknown aouroe came an hilarious: “Ha! ha! ha!" It was evident that such a request, com ing from Fogg, struck somebody as being somewhat excessively fancy. The children giggled; Mrs. F.’t face look like a red sunset, and the parson’s features were a study of bewildered amazement, while Fogg appeared to be in anything but an angelic frame of mind, if one might judge Irons the murderous as pect of hu visage. The parson was tha first to recover his self-possession. He began: "O Lord, we thank thee for tho bounties thou hast aet before us.” He hesitated a moment, when from the direction whence proceeded the Ul-timed laughter came a voice. It was pitched in accents of impatience, saying in an inquir ing tone: •What?’’ John I Mary I” shrieked Fogg in a stage whisper to the young ones, who ware, nevertheless, unable to wholly con trol their cacbinnatlon. Mrs. F. screwed her face into all aorta of contortions, and the parson opened.hla eyas Ions enough to show the wondsr which filled his perplezed mind Rut ha was equal to the emergency and pro ceeded— May this physical food remind us of that spiritual sustenance—” "Oh, cut it short!" brute In tin- Irrever ent Interrupter. "Amen,’’ raid the parson, abruptly ending bis petition. The children forgot their roannera en tirely, and laughed aloud; Mrs. K., as aha afterwards observed, thought she should •ink through Ihe floor, while Fogg allowed something to escape bis quivering lips which sounded very much like an oath. Again came the voice— OEN. JACKSON'S DUELS. His Fight With Dloklnson nnd the Ben tons. Cincinnati Enquirer, Gen. Andrew Jackson, President of tho United States, and immortal as the patron saint of the Democracy, is one of the few men whose record was not materially sullied by his duelling. To fight seemed in perfect accord with the man’s courageous temperament and th < whole drift of his career. The af fair of honor in which the General was first engaged was when he was a very young man and holding the office of district attorney in Western Tennessee. It waa in the summer of 171K5. Major- General Sevier had just been elected Governor and still retained his com mission as general. Jackson wanted him to resign, and they became engaged in a dispute in which Sevier told Jack son that he had run off with another man's wife. This happened in the streets of Knoxville. Jackson replied. “Great God! Do yon mention her sacred name?” Bo h men drew pis- t ils and fired several shots in the crowded street. One man was grazed, hut no ono was seriously injured. When Jackson challenged Sevier the latter declined to light because ho was a poor man and had a large family de pendent upon him. Soon after this meeting tho parties came together on tlie mam road from Knoxville unex pectedly. All were on horseback. Jackson, who was accompanied by Mr. Van Dyke, called upon Sevier to de fend himself. The latter jumped from his horse, which ran away with the pistols in the holster. Sevier’s son drew on Jackson, saving he would pro tectIris father, and Van Dyke drew on Sevier, hut travelers interfered and no blood was spilled. In this case Jackson was popularly adjudged to be in the right, as the lady in question was then bis wife, and had been deserted by her former husband, lie held her name sacred. In 1805 Gen. Jackson heard that Charles Dickinson, a young lawyer, had spoken disparagingly of Mr. Jack- nor went off. It stopped at half cock, j Carefully he recoekea it, and a second i time took aim and fired. Dickinson | reeled, and was caught by his friends. A deadly pallor came over bis face, and his trousers became crimson from the life-blood that trickled from his breast. Tlie hall had entered one side and come out nt the other. Jackson was joined by Overton nnd they hurried from the field. Looking down, .Overton saw that the General’s shoe was full of blood. It was the first he knew that his friend was wounded. “My God, arevou hit," he exclaimed. "I believe he has pinked me a little, but say nothing about it,” Jackson re plied. Dickinson’s aim had been perfect. He had struck the mark where he thought he would pierce Jackson’s heart, but the slender figure and de ceptive dress of his adversary rendered the wound not fatal. Tlie bullet raked the breast-bone and broke two i ribs. Jackson was laid up for weeks, and though he lived to a ripe old age tlie wound was tlie eventual cause ol his death. It was a case in which on< son. This was something he wouUM'went to the post-office, w HOW CHOLERA PATIENTS FEEL. Symptoms which Accompany the Dread Messes. The patient feels well np to within s lew hours o( the attack, or, it mav be, goes to bed and sleeps soundly through tho night, says Twain's Dictionary of Medicine, and immediately on rising in the morning is seized with violent purging and vomiting. If judiciously treated many patients recover from this, tlie first, stage of cholera, but if neglected the tendency of tlie disease grow rapidly worse. . The a of inf patient complains of intense thirst and a burning heat at the pit of his stomach; he suffers also excruciating pain from cramps in the muscles of the extremities; he la terribly restless, and his urgent cry is for water to quench his thirst, and that eonio one ini^ht rub his limbs, and thus relieve the muscular spasm. Tlie pulse is rapid and very weak, the respirations art hurried, ami the patient’s voice be comes husky. Ills countenance is pinched, and tlie integument ot his body feels inelastic and doughy, while the skin of liis hands nnd feet become wrinkled mid purplish !t > color. The duration of the second stage of cholera is very un certain—it may last two or three bonis only, or it may continue for twelve or fifteen honr- hut so long as the pulse can tie leltnt tue Wrist there is itill good hopes of the sick person’s recovery. The weaker the pulse becomes the m-arer the patient b to the third or col lapse stage of cholera, from which irrohably not more than 35 per cent, recover. In the third stare ol the disease the vomiting and purging continue, although in a mitigated form, and tlie . sin is covered with a clammy I-crepitation, especially if the cramps are still severe. The patient remains terribly restless, longing only fa* sleep, an J that he seldom expresses any anx iety regarding worldly affaire, although felly conacioua of tha dangerous condi tion he is in. Sleep arid a plentiful snpoly of drinking water are the eole desires of a person passing through the coliaiae stage of cholera. Thu condi tion seldom lasts for more than The mystery was explained, and the children’s giggle wu drowned in tbs hearty laogliierof Parson Textual, who, pious man though he was, could si st* a good thing is well as any ot the un regenerate. Attamjezo Church Rehbory In Mexico. A most remarkable attempt at rob bery was made the other night at the Soledad de Santa Cruz church in the City of Mexico. It !(not unuanal in that climate to bury people at very early hours in the morning, so the priest did not think It strange when a certain funeral waa set at 4 a. m., and permission was asked to pUto the corpse In the church the night before. The heavy coffin was taken in and placed before the altar and the place locked up. During the night the dogs of the sacristan made a great noise, and on that individual going into the church Im saw a man jumping off an alts'- on which stood ote of the Images. He called assistance, but no trace could be found of the intruder.

He found Dickinson, who toiil him if lie said it he must have been drunk. The matter was for a time amicably arranged. Again Jackson heard that young Dickinson had been talking. The General then went to the younj; man's father-in-law and told him tha: lie wished the young man would hold his tongue anil comport himself as a gentleman. He wanted no quarrel, and counselled Capt. Ervin to exert his in fluence to quiet the young man down. Meantime a horso race was to come off in which Jackson and Dickinson were interested. The stakes were $2,000 a side. Before the raco the horse in op position to Gen. Jackson broke dewn and $800 were forfeited. A young man named Swann, in sneaking of the notes liaced up on each side, said something .hat impugned Gen. Jackson’s veracitv, and Jackson, when the matter was brought before him, promptly said that whoever mode the statement was a d—d liar. Swann addressed a letter asking for an explanation. The Gen eral replied by rciteratinghis language, though ho did not know whom it •track when first need, and referred to Dickinson as a tale bearer, a cowardly ■oltroon and liar. Swann then chaf- onged Jackson, who, in accordance with a threat previously made, caned Swann in a public place. Dickinson next wrote a fierco letter to him and left on a trip for the South, expecting an answer on his return. While he was away another duel came off between two gentlemen, Mr. Coffee and Mr. McNalry, who were mixed up in the same affair, Coffee be ing wounded. When Dickson returned on May 20th, he published a long letter in the Nushville Imperial Renew, full ot cutting sarcasm, and branding Gen. Jackson as a coward and poltroon. The inevitable came. Before tho article appeared In printjDickinson was handed by Gen Overton, Jackson’s second, a lercmptorv challenge. It wus prompt- y accepted, and Dr. Harrison Collet carried Dickinson’s reply, naming Fri day, May 110, 1800, as the dato. Gen. Jackson wsnted to tight at an earlier date, but the other side would uot con sent. The locstion of the duel was a long dsy’s rido from Nsshville, in Ken tucky, across the Red river. It was the general opinion that tho meeting would bo fatal to Jackson. Dickinson was a marksman of unerring accuracy, and was considered the crack shot of Tennessee. Ho was certain lie would kill his antagonist. The morning before the duel he kissed his younp wife goodbye, assuring her he worlt be home the following evening, fihe was in entire ignorance of his mission the two Bentous standing “Now, you d—d rascal to punish you,” said .lack Benton, advancing, rah hand. Benton made a u. draw a pistol, and Jackson still advancing, whip in ha Benton then discharged a pisu.. mailed w ith slugs nt Jackson, literally tearing up one of his shoulders. Jackson fell, weltering in blood. A running duel then commenced in the street, though without effect. Coffee shot at Thomas Benton and knocked him down a flight of stairs, and friends of Jackson tried to kill Jesse Benton, who was wounded with a dirk. Jacksoncame very nearly dying, and carried llenton’s hall to his dying day. This was the last of the important engagements in which Gen. Jackson figured. A Way of Escape. Philadelphia Call. .
