A Great Natural Curiosity.
Providence (tt. I.) Journal.
For the past day or two there has
been in this city a colored man who
presents in himself a queer physiologi
cal freak. He i 34 years of age,
thick set, of medium height, of" fair
intelligence, and was born in Man
chester, England. He gains a livcli
hood by exhibiting himself to phy
sicians. His abdomen is . naturally,
full, but at will, without the use of
his hands, he given it a wave-like mo
tion and it gradually sinks in as if
being wound up, until it apparently
rests close against the backbone, and
he presents the appearance of a man
with no abdomen, and- then in the
s:une mannerfjhe ; rolls it out to its
original form." He then Irojs from
under his ribs a duplicate set of ribs,
with a breast bone; when the original
ribs and the duplicates can, be dis
tinctly felt t and j .counted,!, .aud -the
whole front o hisiody is, as it were,
iron-clad. Or,. at, will, he apparently
drops his hert" from its natural po
sition' 12 . inches, puts it back and
sends it to the right fide of the bod 5
opposite its natural position, puts it
back and sends it to the lower part of
the body on the right hide, thus put
ting if in four-: different; positions. J
Daring these changes the two o-.imls
of the heart can be distinctly heard in
eiiner 01 inene new urinous, aim uui
wheru tliey . usually are heard. It
seems to be necessary, however, that
after each change it should go back
where it belongs before being sent to
a new quartern . He also has the power
to stop the! beating, of his heart at.
will from ti vej to ten seconds at a time,
the pulse 'stopping at' the same time,
lie seems alak to Jiavp ; considerable
strength, easily bending by a blow on
the arm a heavy iron caue jihicbihe
carries. be veral of wir prominent
physicians have examined hini .from
one of whom we have obtained these
facts, and pronounce him to be the
greatest enriosity in physiology ; they
have ever seen or heard of.

No Danger.
It has been generally known in this city
for a few days past that a case of yellow
fever had occurred on board of the Span
ish Barque Elvira, at the Quarrantine sta
tion about thirty miles below this city, and
that one death had been announced from
the disease. We art now glad to state, on
the authority of Dr. Potter, the Quarran
tine Physician, that perfect health reigns
among the remainder of the ship's officers
and crew and that no danger of a further
spread of the disease among them is appre
hended. The vessel has been thoroughly
fumigated and will be detained at quarran
tine until the last vestige of danger has
been thoroughly dispelled. Dr. Potter has
acted with the utmost precaution in the
matter.
Attempted. Robbery.
An effort was made yesterday morning,
about 2 o'clock, to enter the store of Mr.
Henry Hashagen, corner of Fourth and
Walnut Btreet. The thief was trying to
prize open the front door sufficiently to
loosen the bar, but it happened that the
bar was firmly secured and did not so read
ily yield to the pressure, and in the mean
time Mr. H. heard the noise and frightened
the thief off.

vested in me, do hereby forbid any such public

for a period of FIVE DAYS from the date of
this Proclamation; and I do hereby enjoia upon all
the good citizens to refrain front assembling upon
the streets during the period aforesaid; and I do
earnestly appeal to them to aid the authorities of the
City in the preservation of good order.
