A PROGRESS THROUGH EGYPT.

HOMAGE TO GREAT BENEFACIOR.
The Diary Of a Physician" by DR.. War
ren, thrilling and interesting as il has been
considered is not more marvellous than the
actual experience of the celebrated Professor
Holloway in the various countries he has
visited. While in spirit of general philan-
thropy he has devoted himself to :he CON
servaton Of the public health, without dis
tinction of nation or class, he has been the
intimate friend of princes and an honored
guest at the table of kings. His courjly man
ners varied Information, and the fascinating
style in which he gives his impressions of
the countries and peoples with whom his trav-
els have made him familiar, render him the
most delightful Of companions. When in
Egypt, (whither he went several years ago
for the purpose of investigating the antiquities
OF that cradle of learning and science he re-
coiycd a special invitation from lbrahlm Pasha
TO become his guest at Alexandria, and that
remarkable man is said to have offered him an
enormous income as an inducement to become
his physician-in- Failing in that he
ordered a guard of honor 20 attend Professor
Holloway to Thebes, and presented him with
a special firman, addressed to all civil aud
military officers in Egypt commanding them
to afford "the friend Of lbrahim Pasha' every
facility in the prosecution Of his researches.
Thus he journeyed, the guest of the nation,
through the realm of the Pharaohs. Nor was
his progress simply devoted to antiquarian.
Travelling as usual with an ample supply Of
his invaluable remedies, he was enabled to do
an infnity Of good in that unhealthy region
watored by the Nile. Wherever his tents
were pitched. the sick were conveyed there.
Nubian and Abyssiuian princes brought their
sick wives and children on ltters seeming to
believe that he could heal them with a touch,
and Moors, Copts and Turks-in fact, repre-
sentatives of all the races that make up the
population of Egypt We'd with each other in

II' Carl Schurz, whose scathing reveiw Of
Douglas career in his speech at the Cooper
Institute last Thursday evening has attracted
so much attention, is native Of Bonn, in
Germany. He received a collegiate educa-
ton under Professor Kiukel, passing much Of
his earlier life in Dusseldorf In the revolu-
tionary movements of lS48, Mr.. Schurz took
an active part, and in 1919 was sentenced to
death for treason to the State His escape
from the pursuit of the Prussion troops was
quite markable, as for three days and nights
he was concealed on the top Of building oc-
cupy by the soldiers, unable to abandon his
forced assumption Of the character of st. ST.
neon Stylites, lest he should be discovered.
On the fourth night, however, he took ad-
vantage Of darkness and rain-storm to leap
from the roof, and managed, by the connivance
of some friends and by an unpleasant passage
through a sewer, to escape He then went to
Paris, where he remained several years.
Professor Kinkel, his old friend, about this
time became obnoxious to the Prussan Gov
ernment, and though a man of education, a
poet, and accustomed to the luxuries OF af-
huence, was imprisoned as a common felon
in the Spandau prison, near Berlin, and SEN
fenced to hard labor. Schurz determined TO
release him, and with forged passports pro-
ceeded to Berlin. Six weeks were occupied
in the vicinity of Spandau, and at last, hav-
ing brbed the jailer, Schurz succeeded in
carrying off Kinkel. They hastened to the
sea shore and embarked for England.
In 1851 Mr.. Schurz came to this country
and took up his abode in Philadelphia. He
was, at that time, almost ignorant of the En-
glish language, for although he had been for
some time in England, he had associated al
most exclusively with Germans. On arriv-
ing in this country, however, the necessity of
learning our language became at once too OBJ
vious to be overlooked and the German exile
set to work reading nothing but English. To
his constant perusal Of the daily papers, Mr..
Schurz attributes much of his successes in
learning our language. He now speaks it
with perfect fuency. correctness of pronun-
citation, and familiarity with our idiomatic
phraseology. Indeed with the exception Of
Rufiini, the Italian writer, and Kossuth, we
remember no foreigner who has more com
pletely mastered the English. As regards
accuracy of pronunciation Mr. Schurz is far
in advance Of the illustrious Magyar
After remaining in Philadelphia some three
or four years, Mr.. Schurz removed to Wis
consin, aud commenced the practice of law at
Milwaukee His residence is, however, at
Watertown, same distance in the interior of
the State. 1t is only two or three years since
Mr.. Schurz made his first political speech in
English, in one Of the western towns. He
was successful, and since that time has spoken
frequently in all parts of the country. 1t
may interest those who attended the Cooper
Institute ratification meeting to learn that his
speech delivered on that occasion was writ
ten on Lake Erie steamboat, during a days
detention at Detroit by stormy Y. EVc.
