' ' â€"Aud now Ingersoll is convulsed to its Very center by excitement over a system. And we may, say Ingursoll is noted for its mysteries. The present mystery assumes the form of a human hand, revealed to the astonished vision at the natives not in the act of inscribing unknown characters on the walls of their banqueting halls, as in the days of Nebuchadneazar, but amid the mud and mire of some of the by-ways of that hamlet. The News, in speaking of the cir~ cumstance-says: Our readers will remember the great excitement caused on account ot the mysterious disappearance of Thomas Becord from this place, in September last, and that all efforts to find out his whereabouts proved fruitless. Rewards were offered, the country was secured by iriends, detectives were engaged, arrests were made, yet not the least clue could be had toWarda unravelling- the mystery. It is true but small hopes were entertained of finding him alive even then, and as several months have since passed away without tidings from~ him, all~hopes of his being alive haVe been completely swept away. Many people, hereabouts, have been under the impression for the past two or three days, that at least a clue has been found which may lead to the recovery of his dead bodyâ€"4n the shape of a man‘s hand! It is true aman’s hand has been found, but whether it has been detached from Secord’s body or not is, another question. A lady having seen, on Tuesday last, what she sup- posed to be a man’s hand lying exposed on a street running north and south, close to the edge ot King’s mill pond, in the south; western limits of the town, reported the same to Councillor Budworth, who, in company with Mr. Constable, editor of the New; im- mediately hastened to the place and found the hand. They brought it to this office, and as soon as possible acquainted their neighbors of the fact. The news spread like wild-tire, and during Wednesday the book store in the front part of the oflice building Was crammed with excited people who hadeorne to see “ the hand of the murdered Second." Thousands must have viewed it before night, and the great topic at conversation throughout the town was the ‘‘hand." Who the hand he- longed to, how did it get where it was found, was it the hand of a murdered man, or was it, apart of a student’s “subject,” were ques-: ticns asked but not answered. We must! conicss, with the rest of the people, that it is i a mystery we cannot now solve. From the I appearance of the hand we should say it had been severed from the body about six monthm there being considerable flesh on the upper-i part of the hand but none on the finger-8.?

The doctor claims that by the rise of this agent the duration of the disease has been reduced to ten or eleven days.
