to Eve hundred Mssourians and South Carroll

BIZ the steamer Edinburg, from Weston, No.,
re learn that when. the steamer Star Of the
West with the Chicago company on board ar
rived at Weston, large party of men boarded
the vessel and arrested the entire company for
the purpose of escorting them back the same

FEW FACTS FOR THE INvALID.--Have our readers
ever heard of Professor HOLLOWAY? I'm
doubtedly they have, just as they have heard OF
HunBoLDr, ARAGo, OERsTEp, S1LLNAN, AGAssIZ,
and other notable men Of learning. But have
they ever asked themselves 1cho and 1rhat he is
Ifthey have no definite information on that mat t.

Professor is an English physician, a native OF
that country which produced Harvey, Hunter,
Abernethy, and other a2umnsats Of medical sci
snce. So much for the WHO and now for the
WHAT. He is to other physicians what Clay,
WEBSTER and CALHOUN were to statesmen,
what WAsHINGToN-rc name was to pa
triots and generals-what SHAKESPEARE was to
dramatsts, and IRVING and CHALMERS to preach
ers-yiz the greatest Of his aye and profession
His reputation has penetrated the cncrusta-
lions OF prejudice, surlnouutcd the barriers OF
malice, and he ayowcdly stands alone, tho
MEDIcAL CoLossUs Of the word. So uuc
for the WHAT.
WHEREFORE do we speak Of him here }? IT.
when onr fellow couItrymcn were dying 10y
thousands, OF yellow fever, at Norfolk and
Portsmouth, we had heard OF remedy which
would arrest the progress of the disease, and
stay the footsteps Of the spoiler, and We had
neglected to communicate it what would have
been our desert? Truly, a very summary pun
ishmcnt by Lynch law. For if there be any
duty more imperative than another, it is this
" to visit the sick in their affection" and to
use every means for their restoration to health
THIS is why we speak Of Professor HOLLOWAY
This is our answer to the WHEREFORE.
Years ago, when the Professor was much
younger man than he is atpresent, his attention
was directed to the great disproportion between
the cures performed by tho Physicians, anG
those which they undertook to perform. liz
observed that not once in score of cases wcr,
they successful. 1t seemed to him, either that
medicine was not worthy the name Of sci
