Famala Physicians.

A great stubborn prejudice, represng IN ~
sway, was efectually broken down when the mss
female medical college was established, more
than twenty years ago. But the work OF edu-
Gazing woman in the mysteries OF the heaiine
art has gone on steadily since then, and college,
with liberal facilities Tor the purpose, have bseq
established and are now aourishiog in many OF
the States. The FemaIe Medical College Qf
Pennsylvania graduated class of twenty-thres
doctresses week ortwo since. According TO the
report of the managers the highest success il at.
tending their efforts in the sphere Of usefulness
they have chosen. The Philadelphia North
American says d" There are some six or eight
regular female physicians. Ooe OF them
keeps three horses in constant use.
It's difficult for some men 10 believe in women.
Young men are seldom open To the charge un-
less, indeed, their affections have been jila d By
some charming Miss. But old, soured orthodox
specimens OF the gender, and bachelors never
guilty of a hime or even a tender thought, pro-
test against the innovation as one calculated 70
desecrate and impair il not utterly dwarf the
sweet sensibties of the feminine character
There is something queer and novel alter sn
in the idea OF young lady physicians to 500 .
pretty girl going the rounds in buisness-lifs
manner, making professional calls here and there
upon rich and poor, going through oil the mystic
operations Of an approved diagnosis, doling out
tinctures and mixing up boluses, may cause .
cold thrill at first, but then we got used to it
and how much more sensible and useful such
visit than the formal, fashionable unmeaning
call where gossip rather than medicine is the
staple.
That women are admirably endowed BY nature
for the calling, is coming to be admitted 10 ell
ranks and we welcome the multiplication ofths
order and so do their masculine associates IN
tho same calling for there is wonderful amour
OF gallantry in the profession. Until poor,
diseased humanity attains higher condition,
we shall need physicians, and there Is room tor
both sexes to try their skill-Sparfa Uhion.

CumDRgN's SAYINGs.-We have two or three
original anecdotes, which amusingly illustrate the
literalness with which children apply the knowl-
edge they gain. A little boy, on the occasion Of
thunder storm, when the sun was suddenly
clouded, exclaimed, " How quick God takes the
sun in " Another little fellow, who was fond Of
flowers, and who called a patch of whileweed
near the house, his flower garden, said, as hc heard
the muttering Of an approaching storm, " I'm
glad it fu,drs, cause flindr always waters my
garden" Little Willie, being told to sit still
during thunder.shower, asked what the noise
was. lie was told by the awe-struok lady who
had him 10 charge, that it was the voice Of God
and again admonished to keep still. But in spite

importance Of the question refers to the

to say the Constitution defines the power
and duties Of the Executive, and provides
punishment for his viol stion ofthem, there
fore he possesses no powers beyond what the
Constitution cOnters and this act beyond
authority can furnish no definite argument
against the legal constitutionality Of what
| things arc done under it, and whatever is
done Is utterly void. The Commission must,
therefore, decide this question before pro-
nouncing judgment. That tribunal like
