' i ,! The St. Louis Medical society have ap pointed committee 'to inquire into the case of Susan C. Godsey, known as the Sleep ing Beauty, who, as is alleged, has with the exception of brief daily intervals," slept twenty one years. Susan C. Godsey, ; the subject of the inquiry, is 29 years of age, nnd was born seven miles west of Trenton, Gib ion county, Tens., where her parents kept a small farm . On the 1st of August, 1848, when she was nearly eight years of age, she fell into a torpid, insensible, benumbed con ditionTirr-whichras it is -veraciously stated, she has remained daring the last twenty-, itine years, varied fJyby - a very singular mm nnparallelef -jn.pnenomena, avjucu f, oa witn wnyuiicj m ciock worn, very morning, precisely at the 'first dawn ing Of light, she is found awake. 1 This stato of wakefulness, however, does not ordinarily last for more than fiom four to eight minutes. During its continuance she eats and drinks and talks. After laving been awake for the time stated, the pijtient is then seized with a kind of convulsion, her head moves from one side of the pillow to the other, in what ts called a lateral motion." 'i nese motions are very rapid, and appear entirely uncon trollable. She thea bends forward her bead, and a kind of hiccoughing is heard in her throat, and she fintllv relapses into her for mer torpid condition; her eyes are closed, her lips are firmly comnressed. and , no motion is visible except a constant agitation of the hands, which move about perpetually. This process is repeated every time she wakes, ana also at interval when asleep. Among the cunous facts mentioned in connection with this case is that of the numerical regularity of the symptoms which precede the awaken- ing.w In a few minutes after she s seized with the convulsions and the lateral motion as described, she has twelve hiccoughs, then adding one each time until she has sixteen, This usually takes half an hour. ' The order of number is then reversed. After having had a convulsion, followed by sixteen hic coughs, the number Tsrgradualiy lessened nntil eleven is reached: then she awakes. From 8 to la in the morning she wakes once every hour. .In the afternoon, however, sue sleeps until 3 o'clock, and then at sun down.. During the night she awakes at 9 and at 11 o'clock. The - next time is 3 in the morning. v-if-f 8 ' ' 1 ' '. 1 When asleep she is alike insensible to the effects of both sound and pain. ,., ; , The reputation of the physicians who have charge of the case is such, that the facts stated Km unquestionable. ....

She had no' power to read : further, but staggered to the' window: and kneeling on the floor,;laid her head on the window sill, thinking only ;'He was making love tome while she died. OT I thought him so good, I cannot believe it." '' Presently Tom came in,' and going straight to her, .said : " You must not stay at this open window, your hands are like ice." But she would not move ; she listened in a half absent way while he explained to the scared crowd that the boom they listened to was a ship in distress, and said, he was oing to the beach. .Tlien turned to Bell and said, " God bless' you, good-bye my dear, my darling." The last was a gasp, almost a sob, and he kissed her forehead and strided quickly from the room. . She watched , him in the flashes of the lightning fighting his way against tho wind, towards the shore ; and she heard a voice outside say he had gone to help save the 'wreck, but it was' 110 use ;- he , would be killed. Then she semed to wake from the stupor that had possessed her, with a great anguish'Ifi'lrcrheart'-NTJtrToai. She could not lose Tom. -He ;was all she had left her, and ..he was ; true gold; but he would die thinking she bad thrown his purejove "awayfoi- the ashes-of a dcW heart: 'She could not bear it she could not sit quietly there and know her . lover was wrestling with death, and opening the lower half of the window, she stole out. The first gust of wind drove her against the house breath less and blinded, but in a moment she saw some women passing 011 their way to join the crowd on tho rocks,, and she begged them to take her so pitifully that they wrapped a shawl about her and they strug gled on together. She never knew how she reached the shelter of the high rock, where they placed ber half fainting. But she saw a boat being launched..) Tom was going to his death, and she could only watch and pray for him. Would they ever reach the boat alive t It seemed that every wave must dash the frail thing -to atoms and send the bravo men to:ittoiuity. The high waves were already dahiug over, the wreck; and every moment seenrtd her last. Would she hold on' till the 'life-boat oould 'reach her? One after another 'the poor creatures .were washed into the raging waters, that seemed so eager to swallow them.r At last ; they reached the wreck, but how could they help them? " It was all darkness,' and the poor creatures oushpxeheld;. their breath and waited.,; It was a mad attempt. It seemed like daring the ocean to do its worst, j Sud denly a shrill cry 'was heard and 'the, next flash - showed the boat .upset the, wreck goue-nand a, body, was; washed .on shore. Bell knew , it. was, Tpin. Ol she bad de served this, but it' was hard so hard and he Would never know she had loved him. " Strong men-lifted him reverently and carried him to tho hotel, and. Bell begged her new found friend to take her back. One went to look for her husband, and another helped poor Bell. 'The -wind 1 blew :them quickly along and they reached the parlor 1 before the mournful procession. 'They brought him in and shut her out. . "Is he dead f" she heard a mun ask, and her heart stood still as the doctor said 1 tj "I cannot tell; perhaps we cab save him,", ivi-lf God would only spare him to her if she , could only tell him how truly she loved him and know that he forgave her for her heart less conduct then 1 she could die herself. But'what could she do ? " Her' Aunt was in hysterics in her room, and no 'one could comfort her. . It seemed ages that she walk ed her room, praying wildly for the life that 'seemed already gone in the room opposite her own. Every time the door opened she watched for a word of hope, ; . Al last the good old doctor came out aud said to her: "You may look at him, ray dear, but don't, speak. If he can be kept quiet there is rea son to hope he will pull through." 1- '"- i r She went softly in but she could not beg any.pardon then the, wild eyes had no re cognition for her and she crept away. There was no sleep for her and all night she listeh-. cd to the steps in his room. ' i!' In the morning the doctor sent for her and.said: .,: ; I" "My dear, our patient has brain fever, and you are not to make yourself sick fretting about him for when he- is liettci1 you will want.tdhelp nurse him." f ! . ! ,:, "Oh, doctor, let me sit by him now.", t - "Not now, my child, but you shall see him every day, and as soon as he is rational you shall be with him all you desire." j , How long and miserable the days were! But at length Bell was called and told Tom had asked for her. She went in and told him not to speak and kissed him, then after a little went away for a good cry they were joyful tears this time. i . . j ; . Some days after when he was nearly well' he said with a sad look in his great eyes : ! "Well, Bell, when are you and Will going to be married?" ,; ' ' ' " '' ' j . "Never," cried Bell. : " .

There was a wedding soon alter. White satin and orange flowers were: very becom ing to Bell, and , Tom was quite irresistible in his white vest and kids. j Miscellaneous. Horace H.
