We have frequently called attention to the

South Of the trade with the Northern cities.
The steamers running from Norfolk, Charles
ton Savannah and other Southern cities have
for years supplied Northern cities, especially
New York, with large quantities of early vege-
tables and fruits. This trade has become a
necessity to the large Northern cities. and they
anyiousIy desire to augment 1t. Surely we
have. or should have, the same desire, since
our interest in the subject IS that OF the seller,
and the erjoyer of the Profits OF the trade
We observesthat a New I ork Journal (the Sum

slider the project, composed of persons In the

From the following list OF articles shipped

SURGERY BY LIGHTNING.-The London
Lancet" says: ga boy Of twelve, belonging
to Korsk, (Western Russia) who used to walk
with crutch, on account of anchylosis of the
right knee was on horseback in the fields when
he was overtaken by violent storm. After q
severe clap Of thunder the horse ran away, and
the boy, completely stunned; fell the ground.
When his senses returned, and he tried to rlse
be found that his right leg was gone. His un-
Gle, who had ridden by his side, and his own
horse bad&disappeared. The poor boy, at first
somewhat collapsed, fell asleep. His compan-
ion, however, at last returned, after having Sc
cured the horse, and on examining his nephew
he observed that the right leg was entirely
wanting The patients shirt and clothes were
in shreds, and burned along the seams, and on
the body were many scars. The boy was con-
veyed the villagein cart, suffering severely
inthe stump, and much alarmed at the hem
orrhage. which, however, soon stopped. A few
days afterwards Dr.. Ragowitch found regu-
lar wound as usually made by the amputating
knife, surrounded with granulations, and pre-
santing 10 the centre a few gangrenous spots.
The division had been effected by lightning,
through the superior extremity of the t!bia, the
pete!la and femur being intact. The healing
Of this wound was very rapid, and by the use
Of ordinary means. The severed leg was found
on the grass several days after the sccidens,
just where the boy had been thrown from his
horse. 81 a- @gsaes a-sa :. .1:s35s1>
