Noble EUuity.

Some time last year Mr.. JOHN p. BROWN, Of
Petersburg, Va, insured his life for g. 900 In tho
EQUITABLE LIFE ASSURANCE SOCIETY OF THE
UNITED STATES, 90 Broadway, New York, of
which Colonel WILLIAM G. ALEXANDER Is presi-
dent, and j. HORACE LACY, OF Fredericksburg, Ia
general agent for Virginia, and J. Ii. MONTAGUE
for Richmond.
The policy, as usual, prescribed geographical
limits. These Mr. BROWN transcribed, igno-
ranty, by travelling beyond them, and died in New
Mexico by disease contracted In violating the ex-
press conditions of his policy. This relieved the
Society from all legal claim. But the widow re-
dnced by the caiamites of war from comfort To
want, struggling TO support by her labor six small
children, paid two quarterly premiums on her hus-
bands policy, believing that he was protected by
Its provisions The Society, though relieved of all
legal claim recognized 1t as an equitable one, and
have generously paid the widow the policy. See

4 SUGGESTION on ACCIDENTAL DROWN
ING.-A correspondent OF the alta Cdtu0r-
MA, alluding 10 paragraphs which appear
from time to time of accidental drowning,
states that it is proven by anatomical ex-
uerimeuts that the weight OF the human
body is about equal TO the weight OF the
same bulk Of salt or sea water, or IN other
words, the amount OF water displaced by
the human body when submerged in the sea
is very nearly equal in weight to the body
so displacing it. A further proof OF this Is
the fact that after certain length OF time,
in cases of drowning, the body rises to the
surface, and this, often, when lncumoereo
with clothing, boots, or other matter heavier
than water. In cases Of persons who can
not swim falling overheard encountered
with clothing, if they will not attempt to
struggle 10 keep more than the mouth
out Of the water, at the same time
kicking downward with their feet and
padding with their hands under water.
they can sustain themselves for d
considerable length Of time. Most persons
who fall into water lose all presence OF
mind, and either draw their hands up or
wildly dash them through the air and
water. The moment the weight OF the arms
is added to the weight of the head above
the water, the inevitable consequence Is to
submerge the body. A few struggles OF
this character close the scene. The same
struggles with the arms and feet under the
water will certainly sustain the mouth
above the water and could the senses con-
trol the impulse TO throw the arms up, and
keen them down, there would be less
recording of "accidental drowning.' Our
correspondent cites the case of a man who
could not swim falling overheard from a
sailing ship at sea, whose life was saved
BY surgeon on board crying out to the
struggling man in authoritative tones
to a. keep his hands under the
water" Accustomed to obeying or
ders, his hands went under the water; but
as the ship receded the impulse TO throw
up the hands overcame him, and down he
went. Selling the speaking-trumpet, the
surgeon ordered him, as he rose 10 the sur
face in his struggle, to down with his hands.
Tn the mean time the sails were "hove
aback," boat lowered, and the man
reached in time TO save him. Obeying
orders was his safety. Our correspondent
is correct in theory, and the practice would
almost invariably result as in the case
cited if the shock on falling into the water
did not throw the struggler into mortal ter
ror. and inyoluntarily cause the arms 10 DC
raised above the water. The suggestion Is
worth slowing away in one corner ot the
memory.

The MUSICAL PRODIGY.-Master Willie
Coifman, the infant pianist, now perform
ing daily at Messrs. Dayies's Musical Ex-
change, is attracting considerable attention
by his wonderful musical intuition. We
have witnessed his performances, and while
panied to see SO young an afflicted one, Co
creed very often against its inclinations to
give specimens Of his musical precocity, we
could not but feel that God had gifted the
child III most remarkable manner. He is
yet but q prattling babe, and he shows in
addition TO his musical talents considerable
powers of mimicry. He is a very smart
child, though at times a little perverse
When in bad humor he seems fatigued,
sick, and worn out, and refuses to play.
His performances consist mostly of accom-
paniments. His father sings for him; he
strikes the keys with his little fists and one
of his elbows, producing remarkably accu-
rate chords. The wonderful talent of this
child should be nurturrd, and if he be ex-
ercised as he is when at this tender age,
his parents will never see the dawning OF
his brilliant musical genius.

A DIFFICULT SURGICAL OPERATION
Mrs. Abby Kelly Foster, of this city, who
has for the past two years suffered from
dropsical affection, suffered the operation
of "oyariotomy on the 30th ultimo She
was placed under the influence of ether,
and the time consumed by the operation
and dressing was some twenty-five minutes,
when she was unconsciously removed to
her bed. The weight of the morbid mass
and its contents was thirty-fye pounds.
There was very triAing loss Of blood. In
about one hour after the operation she
awoke to consciousness, rallied from the
influence of the anesthetic and operation
very happily and favOrably, with none of
the frequently subsequent results, as nau-
sea, etc. She still continues in conforta-
bic condition, with favorable symptoms and
good prospect of complete recovery. Her
friends anticipate her restoration 10 com
plete health and return to her former life
of active usefulness, from which she has
been withheld by Worcester Spy,

VIEWING THE HEART AND LUNGS OF A
LIVING MANA man named Sack Stead,
who had been shot by an Indian, was
brought recently to the hospital in San
Francisco, being considered almost incura-
Bile, and it was there concluded best to cut
the man open and take look inside of him.
He was placed under the influence of chic
roform, and an incision of six or seven
inches in length made in his left side
through the cavity containing the heart
and lungs. Looking through the incision
when it was held open, the heart could be
plainly seen. The lungs could also be
distinctly seen, and the left one was found
to be collapsed, fiat, and dead-he was only
breathing by the aid of the right lung.
One of his ribs was found to be shattered,
and section some three inches in length
was cut out of it, leaving the ends smooth.
Several pieces of splintered bone were
taken out of his chest, and water or some
other liquid was then poured into the cavi-
ty of his cheft, agitated therein, and after
wards turned out, when the incision was
sewed up. The man kept about half an
hour under the influence Of chlorolorm.
1t was not supposed he could recover.
