A PHYsIoLoGIcAL CuRIosIT Y..Persons who
have read the modern works on physiology,
or any of them, will remember we'll the case
of St. Martin, CaNhdian, whose stomach
had been wounded, SO that an opening was
formed directly into it, and DR.. Beaumont.
o the U. s. Army, was enabled to do some
thing for the science by the opportunity Of
observing the whole process OF DIGESTION
The opening was about three-fourths of an
inch in diameter. This st. Martin, after hav-
ting been aequarter of a century lost TO the
scientific world, has suddenly appeared. in
New York, where he is stopping and submit
ing to experiments. He is fifty years old,and-
in good health. The new York Post relates
experiments tried with this individual on the
29th ult:
"The first performed was that Of iutrodu
cling the thermometer into the stomach
through the opening, from which its temper,
at,re was ascertained TO be 10l Fahrenheit.
Dr.. Bunting next introduced into the stom-
ach the gum elastic cafheter, and extracted
nearly an ounce and a half of gastric juice.
which was presented to DR.. Griscom, and
examined by him and others, as to its taste
and other properties. The third experiment
consisted in causing the patient 10 drink
two tumblers Of water, which was inmedi-
ately poured out through the orifce into a
basin held by Dr.. Bunting. The experi.
men:s being concluded, various questions
were propounded TO Dr.. Bunting in regard
to the time consumed in the digestion Of
verions foods. In reply, he observed that
the carrot would consume fveand six hours
while rare roast beefwould digestin an hour
and half. Melted butter would not digest
at all, but Hoat about in the etomach. lob
ster was comparatively easy Of digestion:--s
Upon application OF the5gastric juice to a
piece Of tissue paper,the colorat once faded.
In relation to the patients health, Dr.. Bunt-
ing observed that it had been uniformly .ex-.

the first effects Of the wound, ] supported a

Found dead-dead and alone,
There was nobody near, nobody near,
When the outcast died on his pillow Of Stone
No mother, no brother, no sister dear,
Nota friendly voice to soothe or cheer,
Not a watching eye or plying tear.
Found dead-dsad and alone
In the roohess street, on pillow Of stone.
Many weary day,vent by, Fss kt
While wre,ched and worn he begged for bread,
Tired Of life, and longing to lie
Peacefully with the silent dead.
Hunger and cold, and. .scorn and pain,
Had wasted his form, and scared his brain,
Til lat last on bed of frozen ground,
With pillow of stone, was the outcast found.
Pound dead--dead and alone
On pillow OF stone in the roohess street
Nobody heard his last faint moan,
Or knew when his heart had ceased to beat.
No mourner fingered with tears or sighs,
But the stars looked down with pitying eyes,
And the chill winds passed with a willing sound
o'er the lonely spot where his form was found.
Found dead yet not alone; s... 8. .-. -

To claim the wander as his own,
