UT The n. Y. Tribune contains the following
notice of this great Engli,h Surgeon
"My receipt" says he, "for the first year
was .ej .js the second .f26; the third G6i
the fourth cog; the fifth Gl00; the sixth
f20O the seventh f400 the eighth G6l0 ;
the nil III fll00,"
But his practice afterwards became more lu-
cratve than that of any Surgeon that ever liv-
ed. In 1873 his professional receipts were
G2l, ,000.-Through all his active life he was
in his disscctiug room at G in the morning, at
s dressed for the day, aud at the service Of
gratuitous patients til halt past o; at 10 his
rooms were thronged with patients till l, when,
often forced to escape the crowd by back door,
he lectured at Guys till 2. then rushed across
the street to deliver his anatomical lecture !;
at 3 he went again to his dssectng room at
half past, rode on his rounds, giving the post
boys ''lhree pence mile for bad driving, four
pence for good and sxpence if they would drive
like the devil" till Z; then he took dinner,
regulating his diet upon the principle that after
such labor he "could digest any thing but saw
dust"-Slept just ten minutes, then lectnred
and was on his visiting till IL and often till 2
o'clock. This was the usual industry by which
his whole active life was marked.

About fifteen years ago a woman LETT Phila-
delphia and settled IN Natchez, and commenced
the humble business ola huxtcr, by selling
apples, candy, &c, at the corner of the streets.
After time she obtained small shop and vent
into the retail business, and advanced from step
to step and now she is supposed to be worth
three hundred thousand dotiars, and is doing
an extensive wholesale business. She is the
owner of about dozen houses. She arrived
at Natchez alone, poor and friendless woman,
and has accumulated her great wealth by her
own exerion and industry, The following is
given as an illustration of her character: About
four years ago she came to the determination to
obtain a husband, ami it seems she supposed
money was all sufficient to accomplish that de.

From The StcubcnuiWe Union.


Mr.. William Cock, Of Brownvile, Pa, ia.
ther of Judge Cock of this county, has made a
discovery, which is thought to be of great i'm
portance, particlarly to surveyors. 1t is des-
cribed as follows
To find the area ofa circle or plat of land
by weight and rule of three, draw the plat on
pasteboard, on scale Of any number of perches
to the inch, then cut piece an inch square
out of it, which will be the number of perches
to the inch Of the plat, then with gold scales
weigh the inch and find the number of grains,
then cut out the pla, and weigh it with the inch
piece in it--thcn say as the number Of grains is
to the number of pcrchcs in the inch piece, so
is tho number Of grains in the plat to the area
required.
Or, it may he done by drawing a square
round the plat and cut it out and weigh it,
then cut out the plat and weigh it, and work
it BY the rule of three after measuring the
square, but the first plan is thought to be the
best, because it will take the least figures.
The discovcrer was first impressed with the
following incident:
lie was about selling 2I acres of land in
BrOwnvlle to two men which had fourteen cor
ncrs to it and to be divided into two equal
parts to suit them, he drew the plat on paste
board and cnt it as near equal as he could, and
afterwards adjusted them in the scales, by cut
ting from the heaviest and placing the piece
in the scale with the light one until finding an
equilibrium in the two parts and this result
SO simply obtained, led him to extend its appli-
cation to the men>uration of supericcs lie
has sent to the Patent Office to have his right
ofdiscovcry secured.
The Brownsville News, in speaking of thi.
discovery, says: ave rccollect last spring o
seeing description Of an archotype the paten
ed invention of Mr.. Thomas Wood of Smith
field, Jefferson county, Ohio, for which the
Franklin Institute of Pennsylvania, presented
him with n silver medal, and why is not Mr.
Cock entitled to- gold one 2"

M ~ p. Willis, the correspondent Of the Ma
tiona Inelligencer, gives the following account Of
Count D'Orssy, who is acknowledged to be the
beau ideal of dandysm:
"D'ORsAy-There is report going the
rounds ofthe papers that Count D'Orsay, the
great king of dandy y-doom, is about TO visit this
country. do not believe it, for star more
completely unsphered than D'Orsay would be
in Yankee-land can hardly have been seen in
its travels by the late "enterprising" comet. II
he should come at all it would be to commence
backwoodsman at the start, for he is man
suited only to extremes Of civilization. Dress
D'Orsay how you would, he could not put his
foot into the street of a city without crowd
after him. He is an unusally tall man with
herculean bust, but otherwise absolute symme-
try of person, and with all hIs look of personal
strength is almost ftmninely beautiful in face,
and of unparalleled grace and style in every
mot on. His CONSPICUOUS personal appearance
made it impossible for him to walk the streets
of London He was never seen by those out
of doors except in his cabrolet, and even that
| partial view drew all eyes aler him for half
mile But he would make splendid "trapper,' v
and backwoodsman Ilei is the admirable Crieh-
ton" Of all manly exercises-the best boxer, the
best fcncer, the best rlfie.shot, the best horse
man, the bodest sportsman at every thing. And
for the look of thorough bonhOmmie and frank
good fellowship, | never saw his equal. Every
man loves him who sees him. But between
the lavish splendor of the expensive and rrivi-
legged circles in which he has always moved,
and the lawlessness and wild dangers of a life
in the backwoods, can lima CINE no sphere en-
durable by D'Orsay, and, indeed, no position a
chievabe. LucIter, "just come down." with
his wings on, would hardly be more a marvel
in Broadway, and hardly more out OF place in
! New-York society"

No doubt hut heav'n will stand our friend,
And treat as well as chihien send
So fares the hen. in farmers ward,
To live alone she finds it hard
I've known her weary cv'ry clnw
In search Of corn amongst the straw
But when in quest of nicer food,
She clucks amoncs: her chipping brood;
With jry I've seen that self same hen
That scra'ch'd Cor 0pe. could scratch for Zen
These are the thoughts which make me viii.

And f,r the self same cause,1'ye see,
Jenny's resolved to marry me.
