years ago would have been absurd. You
would have been laughed at, and branded
as fanatic for holding such ideas. To
talk Of woman using calomel and the
lancet was prepos,erous. She could sit
by the bed side Of the invalid watching
day in and day out; t.ut to feel ihe pulse,
look at the tongue, and prescribe for the
disease was outrageous. Who would
dream OF trusting his life in the hands Of
female doctor! Yet such things are com
ing to pass, and we at. glad Of it. The
sphere OF woman will be extrnded-she
will not be duomed to waste her life in
scrubbing, sewing, or idlencss and We
will be better doctored, for to tell the truth
we would rather he doctored by at old
woman, with synrh<,' who has never read
a line Of Ma'eria Mcdica, than by halt the
young nincompoops in the country, who
have NJ. D. suftixed 10 their naInes. A
woman appears to have an ,ntuitive
knowledge, as it were, OF disease and its
remedy, and will use every exer'lon to
save the life OF her patients. She is a bet
ter nurse than man and why wont she
make better physician She will Her
greatest pleasure is to watch o'er, and
minister to the distressed And when
she commences the study Of medicine
the art Of aii-v!at,ug and curing those
distrrsscs, her whole soul will be in the
task, and she will not be found, like ma
jorty Of our male medical students loune-

cal College Of Philadelphia, we see in It
the harbinger OF better and brighter

MY SPECULATION IN CHINA WARE.
By MRS. JOHN SMITH.

MY SPECULATION IN CHINA WARE.
This happened very iew years after
my marriage, and is one OF those feeling
incidents i'll lite that We never forget.
My husbands income was moderate, and
We found 1t necessary to deny ourselves
many little articles tournament and luxu-
ry to the end that there might be no Sc
rious abatement in the comforts Of lite
In furnishing our house, We had been
obliged to content ourselves manly with
things useful. Our parlor could boast Of

walls, MOI ornaments on the mantle pie.
Ces.
For time after nv marriage with Mr..
Smith, ] did not think much about the
plainness Of our style Of living; but, after
while. contrasts between my own parIors
and tho,e OF one or two friends, would
take place in my mind, and | often found
myself wishing that we could afford Set
OF candelabras, a pair OF china vases, or
some choice pieces OF Bohemia glass. In
fact, set my heart on something OF the
kind, though concealed the weakness
from my husband.
TiGe stole on, and one increase after
another to our family, kept up the me-
cess,ty for careful expenditure, and at no
time was there money enough in the
purse to Justify any outlay beyond what
the wants Of the household required.
So my mantel pieces remained bare as At
first, Notwithstanding the desire Tor
something to put on them still remained
active.
One afternoon, as I sat at work reno-
waiting an old garment, With the hope OF
making It look almost Gas good as new"
my cook entered and SAID
"Thetp's man down Stairs, Mrs Smith
with basket full OF the mos, beautiful
glass dishes and china ornaments that you
ever did see, and he says that he will
sell them for old clothss,"
"For old clothes!' + responded, but
half compromising what the girl meant.
"Yef ma'am. II you have got an old
coat, o: pair Of pantaIoons that amt
good for nothing, he will buy them, and
pay you in glass or china"
l paused for moment to think, and
then said
Tell him to come up into the dining
room, Mary"
The girl went down stars, and soon
came back in company with dull look
ing old man, who carried on his arm
large basket, in which were te,nptlnglv
displayed ricn china vatps, motto and pre-
sentation cups and saucsrs, glass dishes
and sundry other articles OF like char
acter
"Any old coats pantaloons or vpsts9"
SAID the old man, as he placed, carefully
his basket on the floor. 'D"n't want
any money. See here! Beaut,tuIn'
And as he spoke, he took up pair OF
vases and held then: before my ewes.
They were just the thing Tor my mantle
pieces and l coveted them on the instant.
'..What's the price! enqu,red.
"Got an old coat1'' was my only an.

pretty good service, and which he had

There was meaning in that vote, and disposition
evinced to check certain ultra Southern course
which is deemed fraught with danger: let US see
whether the Senate is equally determined to check
the course of the Northern fanatics.
Gen. Cass,s resolution may meet with consider
able opposition on the part Of Messrs. Clay, Cal

eated in the Senatei but it will certainly pass the

observe it. We stated that Vile Tedesco had been

left her is true but affairs not as bad as repre-
sented Mr. Thomas-we think that is his name

are the children of widow Thomas, rich trader,
whose business has always been transacted by one
of Ghe most respectable houses in this city,. The
son consigned to this house by his mother, with
a liberal credit; and when Mile Tedesco called OF
the merchant to ascertain his character and stand

out taking from her any of her property. He is no

AERoLITEs.-There is, in the January number
of SiIliman's Journal Of Science and Art, cir
cumstantial account of the falling Of an aerote in
the county Of Cabarrus, N. c. on the 31st October,
1919. 1t is represented as blush gritty rock
Of irregular form, eight inches long broad and
four thick, bearing marks q recent fracture and
blackened in other parts asfrom heat and smoke.
1t fell on the plantation Of Mr. Post, and tho noise
OF its fall being heard from different points 81 him
self aud his negro man, they both took the direcs
ton of the sound and near the intersection q these
lines found the stone. 1t split pine log lying on
the ground, and sunk itself about ten inckss below
the surface, into the clay. The stone has Blush
slaty appearance with bright metallic points, and
curved indentatons as if it had been soft by heat.
There is no doubt that this fell from large meteor,
which was seen by tract of light from the line Of
Virginia to Sumter District, S. c., distance of
2J0 miles. Nearly five minutes after the disap-
pearance of the light an explosion was heard and
rushing noise as Of falling bodies. As IS usual
in cases of extraordinary celestial phenemena
were terrified by the supposed approach Of the day
of judgment, or Of war, or Of some dire calamity
and militia colonel, in spirit quite professional,
said that " there must be war in heaven, for they
were throwing rocks.s There can be little doubt
that in this case, as in the case Of The stone which
fell at Weston, CT, in 1907, and many others on
record, some small, erratic heavenly body ap-
preached very near the earth, and getting entan-
ged in its electrical atmosphere, excited as
to throw off lot Of splinters. We trust, with that
| relief, it went on its way rejoicing-so says the
