Mr. Warde's fat boy, who may paradoxically be ,said to enliven several pages of "Pickwick Pa- pers," has a modern oounterpart, says the Loudon Daily News. This boy was charged with vagrancy in the Willesden police court, and was said by the otfioere to be in the hab- it of slebping night and day about the streets and vacant lots of the neighborhood. Before the magistrate, ' he ap- peared to be dozing, and only re- plied to the questions put to him by a nod. He was remanded in order than a place on board ship might be found for him, presumably in the hope that a life on the ocean wave might succeed in waking him up. . It spay he that the boy will develop into one of the remarkable sleepers of whom many reoords re- main. Margaret Lyall of Denniland, in the parish of RMetryton, three iuiles from Montrose, went to sleep on Wednesday, June 10, 1814,, and did not wake up for two days. She went to sleep again on July lst, and slept until August 8th. When fdlly awake she complained of giddiness, but had no recollection of having been blistered, bled, and immersed in eold water. Slie merely thought she had had a long night. There is also the case of Elizabeth. Arten, of St. Guillain, near Mons, in France, who in 1738; 'when thirty-six years of age, fell asleep for four days, and shortly after waking went off to sleep again for eighteen days. For the succeeding five years she -slept regularly every day from five o'clock in the morning until nine o'clock at night. In 1748 she was prevented by the ague from sleeping for three weeks. lit one of her periodical fits of sleep- ing, needles were thrust into her flesh, pieces of burning rag applied to her nose, and pins places .under her finger -nails; she was even whipped, but nothing could waken her. Samuel Chilton of Tinsbury, near Bath, a robust, stout laboring man, twenty-five years of age, on May 13, 1694, felt into a profound sleep:from which he could not be awakened for a month, when. he suddenly rose and went on with his work. He did not, however, regain the power of speech until another 'month had passed. On April '19, 1696, he had another sleeping at. An apothe- cary bled, blistered, and applied a number of; external irritants, ,but, to no purpose. He was al•tifteially fed f-br ten weeks, when a his jaws becai'ne .set, and soul not be opened, stein with instruments. e slpt for seven- teen weeks, ;then he suddenly awoke, dressed' and walked about the room under the impression that he had slept .;for' only one night; Hip next attack lasted from'Augus 17 to Novembt%r 19, 1697.
