Mr. JOhnson's malignity seems to increase
as the days for its exercise approach their end
His latest performance is to attempt the re-
movai of Mr.. Lincoln's Private Secretary from
the Paris Consulate, to which he was ap-
pointed shortly before the assassination. The
effort Is Of no consequence, save as an exhb-
ton OF the Presidential temper. OF course,
neither this nor any of the other new nomi-
nations sent in to the Senate yesterday will
be apt to receive any consideration.

NEVER RAISE A CHILD By THE
HAND OR WRIST.

1t is common practice Of nurses and
parents to grasp children by a single
hand or wrist, and lift them bodily, as in
stepping over cutters, streams, etc. o.
casiOnally a child is seized by the hands
and swung around with great force, the
body being held nearly at right angels.
This feat is not always followed by i'm
mediate i'll effects, but it is liable to re-,
suit in most serious injury. At this PEI
Rod of life the ends Of the long bones
are united to the shafts by cartilage,
which renders them weak and liable to
be distorted by force. There are three
of these bones in the arm one between
the shoulder and elbow, and two be-
tween the elbow and wrist. The arm of
the child is, therefore, very weak. When
extentiOn is made at the hand, the force
is not expended upon long firm bones,
but rather upon bones broken at several
points and very loosely united. A small
force, far less than is required to fracture
a fully formed bone, will separate the
cartilaginous portions, or permanently
bend them. There is also another form
of injury which may occur at the instant.
Of this l have seen several examples. 1t
consists in a slight displacement Of the
cartilsges in one Of the joints, either the
wrist or elbow, attended by pain, swell
ing and tenderness. The joint is fixed
in a semi flexed position, and the little
sufferer will not allow it to be moved or
even handled. 1t can be easily rectilied
by surgeon, by fOrcible flexion and exs
tension. Finally, by lifting child in
this manner the ligaments about the
Joints may be extended, and this will
weaken the joints, and this weakness
may remain as a permanent disability
