A BEAUTIFUL COMPLIMENT TO Wo-
MEN.-Dr. Samuel Henry Dickson, OF
South Carolina, one of the Professors
in Jefferson Medical College in Plila-
dclphia, iu addressing the recent gradu'
a'cs of that institution, paid the follow
ing compliment to to "oman, which we
know every woman will appreciate:
1t hos often been remarked that the
physician, above all other men, should
be gentleman aud man Of honor. l
avow myselfss of those who hold in pro-
found reverence the grand old name of
gentleman whether it represents the
chivalrous knight of the ancient legends,
the Beyord without fear and without
reproach-or the madmau of Cervantes,
the peerless Don Qui1ote ; the hero of
Thackeray's charming fiction, the dear
old Colousi Newcome, the bright poeti-
cal picture of noble King Arther, as
drawn by Tennyson, or the glorious
rtatucsqids model of history, Sir Philip,
Sidney !; regard honor as the bright,
Hagrant flower of morality aud virtue.
Our profession is one of the highest and
most sacred turst, which to violate must
entail all the penalties Of the basest
,reachery. Our relations with our pa
tients, and especially with women, are
inexpressibly confidential and delicate,
and afford US no opportunities, which
should never be disrcgarded, of sustain
ing the feeble and protecting those who
need sympathy and help whore faces
we should not permit the winds of hea-
ven to visit too roughly
Depend upon it that in the proportion
as you fulfil such duties in the domes;;
tic circle where you are received as
guardian and guide, will be your future
success. I am proud to say that large
part of the purest happiness I have en-.
joycd,in my cheekssrsd ooat9e !t; has a.: re-
suited from my professional relation
*ith Eemed, and the 6: close an! and valuable:
friendships originating therein. 1t is
to them that we must look for teLdcr-
ness, gratitude and fidelity. -
Woman.s soft hand my early cradle spread,
Her gentle care bedecked my bridal bed;
By woman let my dying hours be hurst,
Her love the last fond so!ace, as the first.

LUCK AND LABoR.-Mauy persons
complain of their bad luck when they
ought to blame their own want of Wis,
dom and action. Mr.. Golden, dis tin.
guished writer in England, thus wrote
about luck and labor: ...
Luck is everything waiting for some,
thing to turn up.
Labor, with keen eyes and strong will,
will turn up something.
Luck lies in bed and wishes the post
man would bring him news Of legacy.
Labor turns out at 6 o'clock, and
with busy pen or ringing hammer, lays
the foundation Of competence.
Luck whincs.
Labor whistles.
Luck relies on ehapces.
Labor on character. -.
Luck slips down, to indigence. :, q.
Labor strides Upward to iudepend-
ence. -, s,-s--

commands the homage of the most de-
