'.joined together in holy wedlock." But
while the officiating clergyman was pro-
ceeding with the ceremony in the usual
course, his attention was arrested BY mos,
unbecoming show Of levty on tho par, Of
the bridegroom; and, this continuing, the
clergyman closed his book and lcctured the
man rather severely on the impropriety Of
his behavior. The bride, who seemed
much shocked at the thoughtless conduct
Of the man 10 whom she was being united
for life, At length interrupted the clergy man
to ask il il was absolutely necessary that
the ceremony, after having gone 90 Gar,
should proceed to completion. The clergy
man replied. "Cer.ainly not; unless you
desire H." The lady, on learning tim,
option still remained 70 her, thought better
Of the msiter, and absolviely refused to
qroceed further with the ceremony, and

Where shall we make her grave!
Oh! where the wild flowers wave,
In the free air.
Where the shower and singing bird
Midst the young leaves are heard
Thsss-lsy her there!
Harsh vas the world to her!
Now may sleep minister
Balm for each i'll.
Look on sweet natures breast,
Let the meek heart find rest,
Deep, deep and still!
Murmur glad waters by.
Faint gales with happy sigh
Come wandering Ger
That green and messy bed,
Where, on Q gentle head,
Storms beat no more.
What though for her in vain
Falls now the bright spring rain,
Plays the soft wind.
Yet still from where she lies
Should blessed bresthings rise,
Gracious and kind.
Therefore let song and dew
Thence in the heart renew
Lifs's vernal glow.
And DER that holy earth
Scents Of the violct's birth,
Still come and 60.
Oh. then where wild flowers wave,
Make ye he. lonely grave,
In the free air.
Where shower and singing bird
Midst the young leaves are heard
Thereby her there!

CHLOROFORM APPLIED TO TIE SKIN.
Some cases having recently occurred
in which fatal consequences were utiribu-
ted to the inhalation IT chlorotorm, sur
goons have been turning their attention Of
late to the employment OF this powerful
sedative locally, in order TO deprive II SEN
sation parts intended to be operated upon.
A very interesting experiment Of this kind
was made Al the ROYAL Cornwall infrmary,
40 related by the Cornwall ROYAL Gazette,
by Nj. Spry, on . Young man from the par.
ish Of Broage, who had been suffering for
seven years from very painful tumor in
the sole Of bs left foot. The pnin had been
gradually increasing with the size Of the
swelling since December last, 90 that he
could not make = single step withou, great
y sggravating his sufierings. Folded lin,
ssturated with chloroform was applied 10
she iumor, over which piece Of oiled silk
Vas placed, to prevent ito too rapid evapora-
zion, aud . few turns Of roller were made
around the foot 10 retain the lint 10 contact
With the skin.
After quarter Of % hour had elapsed,
more chloroform was added to the lint, but
the quantity used was rather less than two
tesspoonfuls, and 10 about half On hour
from ito first application, il was found thu.
the skin, which would not before bear the
slightest touch without pain, might nov be
compressed with impunity. The operation
wss then proceeded with, the pa.ien. be-
trayine no sign Of suffering, either by the
sstraction Of the foot, or by the expression
ofshe couhssnance; and he aiierward as
sured the gentlemen present, that the only
part Of tho process 1t which no fclt any
pain, vas 10 the deepes. part Of the incis.
ion, but that il was % little - not to Be
'.worsh talking about" Every one 10 .
ware ofthe peculiar senisiveness Of the skin
Of tho sole, and therefore this case was &C.
lscted % fair test Of chloroform efficacy
when applied externally. The result was
highly sstisfactory, and the poor man look
ID on With the greatest composure, no,
moving limb while the diseased part was
being removed, although be he'd been taught
60 expect, before coming 10 the in6rmary,
that the operation would occasion great
pain, and perhaps even locked,jaw.
