The DoCroR.--It is pleasant to record
the fact that nearly every literary man or
woman With whom I have been acquaint-
ed, or whose lives l have looked into,
have found generous and disintsrested
friend in doctor. I could, Of my own
knowledge, tell many anuecdotes of the
sacrsfces made to mercy by members Of
the srofession; of continuous labors With
out thought Of recompense of anxious
days and nights, by sick or dying beds,
without the remotest idea of fees" I
may tell one--of doctor, now himself
gone home; it was related to me by Sir
James Frye, NJ. d. Unfortunately. have
forgotten the name Of the good physician;
but there are, no doupt, many to whom
the story will apply. Sir James called
upon one morning when bis career was
but commencing, and saw bis waiting
room througed With patients. "Why,"
said be, "you INST be getting on famously."
Well, suppose sm," was the answer
"hut let me tell this fact to you This
morning have seen eight patients; six
OF them gave me nothing; the seventh
gave me guinea, which l have just
given to the eighth" Such q physician
