Sweet Blanche, !bo i art lovely child,
Aye I a huclv (lower ail thou;
The rose is budding on thy cheek,
And the lilly on thy brow.
Thine eyes are of slarry luster,
Llllle eyes of laughing blue,
And around Ihy head does clusler
Waving hair of golden hue.
There is music in thy whisper,
rvecter than tin- singing bird,
For thou ait a ceaseless lisper,
Fond of many a prct'y word.
Long may'st thou be a rhilj at heart,
As jdai ful and as Iree
As now thou art, my little niece,
In the days of Ihy childhood's glee.

In n quif't little i Ou vr on the Western
Reserve, in Ohio, i-ays the PreaCott Tran
Hcript, lliere lives n mun who, pliyhiolo
licully i-on-iib red, i cerUiinly one ol the
wonder of die world. Hi joinu ara
cooipletely os.silied. turned lo bone, aud he
is not capable of matiino; the slightest
movement, except iilternntely opening and
hhuitiiisr two liiii,'eri,of his nzht hand.
IIh IhmIv is ns riyid as iron, and it couldn't
be bent without breaking some of his
hone. This singular process of ossifica
tion bus been going on in his system for
more ibnii twenty years. He is now
about f.rty-ix yenr old, mid has not had
the use of his limbs ho thnt lie could Wlk,
since he was niueiei n. Ossification com
menced first in his nn'Je joints, gradually
FxteiidinZ ittelf through hi system until
he wai entirely helpless ; tince that time
be has been wholly under hi mother's
care, und site waudies over him with an
nnxietv only a mother can feel. When
1 1 i i
a hoi it twenty-six years no nc m-cumu en
tirely blind from some unknown cause,
and has remained so ever tince. At
about thirty he so ill-red greatly from
tootbaihe, and finally had them all ex
tracted. A year or two afterwards his
linger nnd toe nails came off, and were
sujipliet by others growing out from his
fingers and toes at riirht angles and pros
si niio'' the ai l) 'arance of horns. -. What
is Kijll nnire singular in regard to Us
iiflil, ir the end of the nail is cnt off it

number of si ii'i'tinc men fr.uu ail parts ol
the world, but nil have failed W givo'any
plausible reason of the causn of his trans
forinaiion from flesh to bone. Singular
as it may apnea r. although his jaw-bone
is firmlv set in his head, he not only talks
fi ly, but fluently converses with his
friends and those who visit hiiu. mi all or
dinary topic uf the day. mid he sliowt
hiin-clf well informed, and of good uiiud.
He i always cheerful, ajijiears contented

will live many years to eome.
