Surgical separation of the
Siamcsc Twins, Chang and
Eng.

The scientific world, and especially that
portion oft who have made the study Of
medicine and surgery their profession,
cannot fail TO be intensely interested IN the
fact which has recently come to our knowl-
edge, of the determination of Chang and
Eng, the Siamese twins, TO submit to a
surgical operation for the purpose Of dis
severing the wonderful link that has so
long bound them together. Some forty
years ago these twins were introduced TO
the notice of The civilized world, having
been brought to England from Siam in the
year 1927 or 1928, by Cspt. Bunker, at
present living in New-Yo k, and for a
series of years they were exhibited TO the
public at all the great centers Of civilza-
tion. Having visited America, they de-
terniined to make this land their home.
They bought valuable tract Of land in
North Carolina, married tive sisters, and
settled down in the ordinary routine OF
farmers daily life. Each of them is now
the father of nine children. The reason
for their determination, at this late day, TO
call in the art of surgery TO produce an
entire physical separation, is, that having
reached such an advanced age Go years.
they are fearful that ono may become the
subject of disease, which may prove fatal
to both. The interesting question arises,
What arc the probabilities of a successful
operation being performed? twill bc re-
membcrcd in pursuing these inquiries that
the twins are held together by quite mas
sive link of thoroughly normal and perfect
| ly yitalizcd integumcnt, some 10 or u
inches in circumference, situated near the
vital organs, and in close proximity to the
heart and lungs; and the connection is so
intimate that each seems to be thoroughly
an organized portion of the other, as much
so as any of the ordinary members of
naturally constituted human body. Sen.
sation, nervous impression, mental phcno-
mcna, morbid, physical, and ncrvo- mental
conditions, all show a most perfect physc-f
ical unity in this wonderful dual physical
existence. The question in regard to the
| result OF an operation Is no new enc, Dut
soon after their first appearance in London
aud Paris it excited the minds of the fore
most intellects in the surgical world. If
we remember rightly, the Twins" were
exhibited before the Academy of Physi-
| clans and Surgeons in Paris at that time
| for the purpose of asccrtaining their opin-
ion in regard to the probabilities OF . sue
cessfui operation. The disagreement in
regard thcrto we believe led to the aban
donment of the project. Has the science
of surgery so rapidly advanced that to-day
successful results can be promised when
there was so much doubt score or two
of years ago? We understand they con-
template visiting Paris for the purpose of
having the operation performed.

as a warning to young men, in the follow
ing language:

out Of the black depths, could / he heard,
would cry out to all those who have set
a foot in the perilous flood. Could the
youth to whom the flavor of the first wine
is delicious as the opening scenes Of some
newly discoveIed paradise, look into my
dissolution and be made 10 understand
what dreary thing it is when he can feel
himself going down precipice with epcn
eyes and passive will to his destruction,
and have no human power to stop it, and
feel it all the way emanating from himself;
to see the godliness emp,iel out Of him,
and yet not be able to forget a time when
it was otherwise; bear the piteous specta-
Gle of his own ruin; could he see my fe-
vered eye, fevered with last nights drink
ing, and feverishly looking to to-nighfs
repeating folly: could he feel the body Of
death out of which [ cry hourly to be de-
livered; it were enough to make him dash .

Out Of PlaCc-A few Words to
Soldiers.

A soldier ''training" with the modern
Democracy, is as completely out of his
element as fish is out of water, or mem
Der of the Peace Society in rcgimcntals.
So clearly defined has the position Of the
rebel Democracy been, ever since Sumpter
was fired on, that the soldier who casts his
lot with that party, feels at once chill
and shadow passing over his military
spirit and his military fame. He finds
himself soldier, but associated with men
who opposed him through all his martial
career. The patriotic glow which carried
him into the field and won him honor and
renown, dies out in the presence of man
who coldly discouraged his efforts and i'm
peded his success. He knows that the
Democratic party rejoiccd over all his
failures and defeats, and mourned and de-
cried his victories. He knows that what
ever of encouragement, aid and sympathy
he and his cOmrades-in- arms received du-
ring the war, came from the men whom
the Democracy now, as then, denounce,
malign and abuse. He knows that but for
the patriotism and enduring loyalty Of the
Republican party, the cause of the Union
must have been speedily lost; and he
knows that the politicians and office seek
crs, who will gladly use him for their own
selfish ends. hate him for every blow he
ever struck at the rebellion. This is the
plain truth. The soldier who puts himself
into aflilation with modern sham Democ-
racy, cannot possibly hope to retain his
personal self respect. He must stand be-
fore the community and in his own esti-
nation as one who fraternizes with and
asks favors from men who gave him the
cold shoulder when he needed comfort and
support, and who had no heart for the
canse in which he periled his life. The
more of a soldier he is, the wider is the
gulf between him and the party which now
seeks his aid. AS he falls into their ranks,
he feels that he must change his step. He
is no longer marching TO the eNulting mu-
sic Of the Union, but to the dismal croak-
ings and groans and sighs that filled the
camp of the Democracy with every new
loyal victory. 4 real soldier, willing to
be lifted into any Office, no matter what,
on the aims of fcopperheads, sustains ia
tai loss. He should forever after hide his
title and uniform, and avoid the associa-
tlon and acquaintance of those to whose
devoted patriotism and zeal he owes his
military existence and fair fame. a loyal
soldier and a Demccractic Office seeker
are two things rs foreign 10 each other as
fire and watcr-Erchdngc.

well as passive interests of common
wealth, must have right to partake ofll-
cially in the function to establish the COM
mon will. lie must have the right to vote
for and to be voted for as member of the
oflicia State power.
His personal rights and interests in ev-
cry regard arc restricted conditionally for
The common welfare and it docs not matter
whether il is tax in the form of money,
services or conditional restrictions, of per-
sonal liberties, all these sevcrally or col
lectivcly amount to contribution and here
comes in the old democratic doctrine very
nicely: "No taxation without representa-
tion."
No collective right resp the official COM
mon win, resp. the State power once es
tablished can be denied obedience TO, with
out the channels provided for such purpo-
ses. These channels are the judiciary and
voluntary expatriation.
While, as long as the common will is
within the bounds of legitimate sphere and
cannot be disobeyed therefore and consc-
quently every individual participant Of the
commonwealth in case of supposed in
fringemcnt upon personal rights has the
privilege ofjudiciary courts, is expatria-
ticn either legitimate or an illegal act. 1t
is legitimate when the person or persons
have tie consent of the common will and
have fulfilled the condition before hand
stipulated for such an act; but then the in
dividud does not destroy any rights
once conceded TO the commonwealth;
and in consequence of which the commu-
nifty has become an organized integral body
a persona morals with its own condi-
tions Of vitality and its rights TO SUCH
Any col travcntion TO such a legitimate ex-
patria,ion is crime against the life Of the
persona mOrdiis of the commonwealth
and is to be in its execution resisted
And any individual participant in the
crime is answerable 10 the CRIMINAL and
civil codes of the commonwealth, whether
he acted alone or with others.
Thus we have the rational premises up
on the ground of which the discussion ard
decision as TO whether the Democratic or
Republican party is the party of rational
liberty, is to made. NJ.

Bread on tue Water.

A California adventurcr was trying 10
get back to San Francisco from the mines
where he had worked and searched with
out success, until his means were exhaust
ed. He came to a river, but the rerryman
asked dollar to take him across. The
adventurcr said: "Then | must walk up
the stream until can ford it, for l have
not a dollar in the world" ''If that is so, y
said the fcrryman, Jump in; neverrefuse
to take clever man across because he Is
broke" When they had reached the sp-
posite shore, the ferryman who had eyed
the adventurer very closely on the way,
said: 'Is not your name Jones:" at is, +"
replied the adventurer. "And your father
used to live in-street, New York;"
"He did," replied the adventurer with as
constituent to find himself recognized.
Thereupon the ferryman drew from his
pocket a bag and commenced counting out
gold pieces. 81 have made five hundred
dollars by ferrying passengers; here are
three hundred of them for you. You can

accepted; by its aid the traveller was able
to reach San Francisco, carn enough TO
repay his benefactor, and return safely TO
his home.

The difference between the ideal and the

A BRIDES DIsAsTER.--A bridal
party recently arrived Mt Houston
frOm Galveston. AS the car contaiu-
ibg the newly welded pair was cross
Ing the draw, the fair bride leaned out
of the window to get q farewell
glance of the Island City. Her af-

the srfety Of her who was all tho
world "and the rest of mankind" to
him, tenderly encircled her slender
waist with his coat sleeve, and softly
whispered, "pray take care Of your
self-don't fall overheard, darling 4"
Scarcely were the words out Of his
mouth, ere the blushing beauty utter
ed faint but audible scream, and
sinking back In the cushioned scat, !,
pressed her embroidered handkerchief
TO her face. "Poor darling Is fright
ened," said the loving benedict, SYM
pathetically. But "poor darling"
bowed her head, and would not be
consoled. TO tell the unvarnished
truth, she had lost set Of bran new
teeth
