aS slight token OF esteem ana grpuiuue tolhe
manwho had rendered each most invaluable
service. The Pitchers bear suitable insertp.
tons, and are certainly highly credltable 10 ~
manufacturers, as we'll as to the TASTE and gen
crosby of the donors. Ed. E. Moyle, M. d.,
who was depilted to make the presentation,
espressed the hope that DR.. Alsophert would
lang be spared to follow in the path he had
chosen: and where he met with so much sue
cess: and TO whom the medical profession was
sd much indebted, not only for his valuable
work ON diseases of the Ear and Eye, but for
the many refurmations introduced in the treat
ment of these delicate organs. It's notorl.
ans fact, said DR.. Moyle, that the practice Of
Atral Surgery is as sealed book to nine tenths
Of PHYSICIANS, and the difficulty Of those suf-
fering from defective sight or hearing, in OBJ
timing relief may be imagined. DR.. Also
phert assuredly deserved The highest praise
both from fhe professional and unproiessionai
classes Of soclelyi for derotng his energies
and talents TO branch OF the heallag art
where both frame aud pecunlary reward are
doied out most scantily. Or. MOVIES remarKs
were eloduent and fattering in the extreme;

knowing they were we'll deserved DR.. Also
phert feelingly and most appropriately replied,
relating some of his experience since he COM
menced practice in the United States, and de-
picted in graphic and glowing ianguag', the
Feelings experienced by those who had been
deaf from infancy, or who had.lornerly grooped
I M darkness, on their being restored to'hghl
and to the world Of sounds. The'ieelngs OF

Dir Alsopnerrs own words:
= The Merchant may feel proud and elated,
when his schemes for arHasslng wealth have
been successful; Kings may exult, when iheir
dom Mons have been extendedi the sculptor
may gaze with admiration on the Hle-like
statue his chisel has created; the eye oil the
student may bIighten, as the treasures oil learn
ing are exposed tohis view, or the great truths
of science drawn upon him; or the Warriors
l.heart may bound with exuliatlon, as his thun-
derinr sduadrous shout the cry Of victory or
when The wreath Of laurel enclrcles his brow;
t.yet all these emotions cannot exceed the pleas
IIe Of that hour when the Physician sees his
elF,rts crowned witlusuccess; when he knows
that he has been the humble agent in remoy-
ing The cupof bitterness from the lips Of his
fellow man.
