A PEEP INTO A LIVING MANS
STOMACH.

The case of Aleris, St. Martin is one with
which the public, and especially those who
have given particular attention to the sub
ject of physiology in connection with mcdi-
cal science, arc already somewhat familiar.
1t is indeed most extraordinary one-per-
haps we might say, the most extraordinary
and singular one known in the annals of
surgery. St. Martin is of French descent.
In the year 1922, when he was eighteen
years old, and while employed in the SER
vice of the American Fur Company, in Can
ada, he was accidentally wounded by the
discharge of il musket loaded with duck
shot, as he calls it, but which must, we i'll
fer, have been the size of buck shot He
informs US that he dM MT tcd or know that
he had been hit, but moment or two af-
terwards he .tM u coM chiN, as if pail
of cold water had been dashed over him
The charge entering latcrally from behind,
passed quite through his body tearing off
the muscles, carrying away half of the sixth
rib, laceratiug the left lobe Of the lungs as
we'll as the diaphragm, pcrforaing the stom-
ach, aud exposing to the view the pericardi-
UNI or covering Of the heart 4 portion Of
the lung, as large as turkeys egg, lacera-
ted and burnt, and just below this, portion
of the stomach protruded from the wound,
the food at the same time passing from the
orifce thus made in the. stomach. This
orifce has never healed, and through it the
processes of digestion can be plainly seen in
the stomach. DR.. Beaumont, the surgeon
who attended him, published some years
ago, volume made up from the facts con-
nected with this case, aud entitled, CDR
Beaumont's Physiology and experiments. ]"
This work embraced the observations and
experiments on St. Martin, and may be said
to be the foundation of nearly all the posi-
tive knowledge now possessed by the world
on the subject of digestion. In this book
DIR. B. gives the particulars of the treatment
of the case, and the singular recovery of the
patient. Curiously and happy enough by
the adhesion of the sides Of The protruded
portions of the stomach to iucuro costolis
and the edges of the external wound, free
exit was afforded to the contents of the Or
gan, and efusion into the abdominal cavity
was thus prevented and the mans life saved.
Probably not one man in million, if woun-
ded in similar manner, would recover at
all while the chances against Just such a
direction apd result of another accidental or
even an intentional shot, would be so enor-
nous as to defy computation and almost to
surpass belief The case Of St. Martin is
probably the first, the last, and the only one
of the kind that the world will eyer seq and
tho opportunities which it aiInTde for the ac
QUESTION of positive knowledge concerning
the human stomach and digestive functions

father the attention he required. The fourth
son, Julian, represented to me that it proper
ly belonged to him to support his father, as
he was the youngest and unmarried.
In truth I knew not what to resolve, my
heart was so affected by the extraordinary
picture presented to me. As 1 contemplated
this scene in silence, the old man, Clemento
said "NIy dear children, my heart overAows
with satisfaction in witnessing your disputes
respecting which of you shall take charge Of
your father. would gladly give content to
you all, and therefore propose that I be per.
mitted to breakfast with one, dine with an.
other, sleep in the house of the third, and
thus keep changing from day to day; but if
you do not consent to this, let his honor, the
Judge, determine what shall be done with
me-"
The young men unanimously rejected this
proposition, because they said their father
would lead an idle, errant, unquict life. |
then proposed to write on separate pieces OF
paper the names of the SONS, and let the de-
cisiou of chance settle the question. While
I wrote these papers and doubled them, and
put them into the hat of Clemento, which
served as ballot box, death like silence
prevailed, and there Was plainly to be seen
expressed in the countenanee of each Of the
sons his hopes of being the lucky receiver OF
the desired prize The old man put his
tremulous hand into the hat and drew out
the name of Antanacio, the second son My
friends, I hardly know how to express to
you the new scene which then broke in upon
me Antanaeio, upon hearing his name
called out, broke into praises to the Omul
scient for according him such boon. With
his hands claspcd and eyes directed to Hea'
ven, he repeated over and over his thanks,
then fell upon his knees before his venerable
parent, and bathed his sandaled feet with
tears of frantic joy.
The other brothers followed his example,
and embraced the feet of the good old pa
triarch, who remained like statue, opprcs
sed with emotions to which he knew not how
to give vent.
Such scene as this melted all who wit
messed it, among them was the lieutenant OF
police, the Alcade Don Altano, and some
other friends. The brothers then retired,
but soon returned with fresh demand
which was that should command that since
Antanacio had been favored by lot with the
charge of the father, they could not be de-
privcd of the pleasure of taking out the old
man to walk, by turns, in the afternoon
which order 1 gave magisterially, in order
to crafty these simple, honest people, and
they then retired coutented.

A STORY OF FILIAL LOVE.

The following most remarkable and beau

the Herald of Lima, (Peru,) to which it
was communicated by the Alcade of Callao ::
GENTLEMEN There having passed in
my office (Justice of the Peace scene Of
great interest and most rare at auy time and
place, I cannot refrain from communicating
the same to you, believing that you will con-
cur with me in the opinion that an act SO
humble and worthy the best qualities of hu-
man nature, deserves to be commemorated by
means of the press.
About s o'clock this morning, a tumultu-
Gus assembly of people invaded my house,
bringing with them a venerable looking man.
They inquired for the Justice. On demand
ing of them the reason of semi-riotous col
lection, they all began to speak at once, so
that I was for time unable to comprehend
what was the true state of the case. Having,
however, at last obtained silence, the old man
addressed me thus:
Mr.. Alcade, having buried my wife, the
mother of these four lads, I ordered this one
named Jose Maria, to take charge of the
other three, who have already made choice
of the elder brothers profession. These
two Antauacio and Dionisio, are both mar

The father had hardly finished speaking
when the generous dispute commenced.
Antanacio, the second son, said that his
father having been hitherto living with his
eldest brother, it was now his turn to have
possession of him by order of birth. Dioni
