\ long time ago, little boy, twelve
years old, stopped at country tavern,
and paid for his lodging and breakfast by
saving wood. Fifty years later, the sane
boy passed that same little inn as George
Peabody, the banker, whose name is the
synonym of magnificent charitics - the
honorcd Of two hemispheres.
Far back in the teens of the preecut
century, n Young man asked for employ
mcnt in the Springfield armory; but he
was poor and modest, and had no friends,
So he went away without it; but feeling
the man within him, he sought sorl
until he found it. An age later, ne

p5a TALE DEARING.--Ncyer repeat a
story unless You are positively certain that
it Is correct, and even unless something is
to be gained either Of interest to yourself
or for the good Of the person concerned
Tattllug is mean and wicked practice,
and he who INDUCES in it, grows more
fond Of it in proportion as he Is success
full If You have no good to say Of your
nciehbor, never reproack his character by
telling that which is false. He who tells
you the faults of others, intends to tell
others of your faults, and so the dish Of
news is handed from one 70 another, until
the tale becomes enormous. A story ney-
er loses anything by telling, is wisely re-
marked, but on the contrary gains in pro-
portion as it is repeated by those who have
not very strict regard for the truth

An Extraordinary Surgical Operations
The Fish Bone not Found.
To tie Editor Of the Boston Jomual:

To He Editor Of the Boston Jouraai:
Your correspondent " Bureigh," in his
letter Of February Sd, gives a remarkable
account of lady who swallowed a fish
bone, and was subject to an operation in
consequence. So many inquiries have
been made respecting the matter, by per-
sons who knew something Of the case by
reason of the relation existing between the
patient and the writer Of this note, that
take the liberty to make some corrections
Of the published statement.
The lady, some two and half years
ago lodged very minute fish bone some
where in the throat. After few days
of slight inconvenience, symptoms Of
trouble in the wind-pipe appeared, similar
to those III severe attacks of Group. These
introduced a condition Of great Altering,
with continually recurring seasons Of OPP
preston, amounting at times nearly to
suaocation, which has greatly impaired
her health and continued until recently
Careful examination failed to discover
any bone but did reveal an obstruction Of
some kind within the thyroid portion =
the trachca, on one side" As last re-
sort, an operation Of exploration and pos
siblc relief was proposed by a consultation
Of surgeons, and was accepted By the suf-
fcrer 1t was performed on the 10th Of
January, by Dr. Gorden Buck, in the
presence Of other distinguished surgeons,
among whom were Watson, Willard, Par
ker and \. II. Stercns The incision ex-
tended from the top Of the wind-pipe
nearly to the brcast-bone. The cxplora-
tions resulted in the discovery Of uIccra-
tions below the ventriclcs in the locality
indicated by external stcthoscopic exam
nation. The bone was not found The
patient was iusensiblc under the influence
Of ether for about al hour. The opera
tion lasted two hours on the first day and
explorations were resumed on the next
day, extending the work and suffering two
hours more.
Though the patient suffered much, and
at one time almost expired, she uttered no
words after the operation, for this would
have been physically impossible. Nor has
she since expressed any such sentiments
as ynrr correspondent has published. On
the contrary, the relief from perpetual OPP
preston aud sufocations, and the renew
ed luxury of breathing, through a tube
though it be, is matter Of dcyout thank
fulness with her.
During the operation, an application Of
nitrate Of silver was made to the ulcers,
which has been repeated through the
opening left in the trachca, so far as nee
essary.
Since then, the patient has been doing
well, and now uses tube so perforated as
to admit o. speech, when she desires to
employ her voice.
The best hopes are now entertained in
her behalf by her physicians and friends

Fun FOR THE MINERS.-One Of the routes to
the Northern gold fields, that by way of the
Dalles of the Columbia, is through the country
of the Spokan Indians where Col Steptoe was
defeated. If this route should be much travel
ed the miners will soon ''elean out" the troub-
lesome Indians. The Portland Standard says
there are already on the way from the Dalles,
en- route for the mines by way of the Indian
country, more than two hundred we'll armed
miners. About hundred more will start forth
with, for they are by no means disheartened by
the report of this battle. On the other hand,
they seem eager to breast these Indian difficult
ties; and in the event that the troops have met
with repulse, we may rest assured that these
miners will become an important auxilery to
the troops in routing the whole force of the In-
dians from the upper country, and making the
entire ronte frem the Dalles to Thompson's riv-
er free from Indian depredations, aud that too
in very short time. Should the next steamers
from California bring up a few hundred more
of these California miners, they will find it only
fun to push their way on through the Indian
country in defiance of all Indian attacks. We
learn that not man of the fifty miners who
went up on the Mountain Buck on Monday
morning. was in the least deferred from his pur.
pose to proceed, by the report of this battle
With the mines north of these Indians, and hun
dreds of eager miners south desirous of advan-
cling to them, the poor. deluded Indians will end
difficulties in their menacing attacks which they
little expect.
Again. the Indians have not been disposed to
molest miners in travelling through their coun.
try, while they are unwilling that U. S. troops
should make expeditions among them.
