In a minute afterward, and while I was still rubbing my eyes, my wife thrust in my face a note from my old friend, Doc- tor Ponnonner. It ran thus: " Come to me by all means, my dear good friend, as soon as you receive this. Come ;iiia help us to rejoice. At last, by long persevering diplomacy, I have gained the assent of the Directors of the City Museum, to my examination of the Mummy — you know the one I mean. I have per- mission to unswathe it and open it, if desirable. A few friends only wi...ll be present — you, of course. The Mummy is now at my house, and we shall begin to un- roll it at eleven to-night. Yours ever, Ponnonner." By the time I had reached the "Pon- nonner," it struck me that I was as wide awake as a man need be. I leaped out of bed in an ecstasy, overthrowing all in my way; dressed myself with a rapidity truly marvellous ; and set off, at the top of my speed, for the Doctor's. There I found a very eager company as.sembled. They had been awaiting me with much impatience ; the mummy was extended upon the dining-table ; and the moment I entered, its examination was commenced.
