himself, and to have been received with
timidity, on account of suspicion that

cotsista mostly of an effort'on the part
of the interviewer to impress his host by
very sauguinary stories illustrating the
condition of the South. The following

~ Remarkable Story

A correspondent, observer" In your
Issue OF the 2lst inst. details " A Remark
able Story" of James Barton, wounded ut
the first battle Of Manassas. OF the per-
soual history Of this soldier | know moth
ing, but the surgical history Of his case is
SO remarkable that it is worthy Of being
put on record. The wound was received
on Sunday-the day Of the battle. On Mon
day he was received ut Bellevue Hospital.
On examining the head bullet seemed to
have opened the scalp along the forehead,
and glanced, piercing the lid OF his cap. He
showed us his cap, with the bulet-h0le
through it. The surgeon on the battlefield
believing the scalp only wounded, had
closed it with stitch and adhesive plaster.
No bad symptoms appeared until the fol-
lowing Friday, and, rs your correspondent
says, he was permitted to 60 to q private
family (Mr. John Ncttles) as an out-pa-
| tient, and to walk the streets. On Friday
the writer Of this was summoned to see
him. and found him In stupor, though he
could be aroused and his mind was clear.
| He was at once removed to the hospital.
This stupor gradually increased, and i'll
rather less than q week he died.
A poSt-mortem examination made by the
writer revealed The true nature Of the
wound. The ball entering obliqucly, had
come in contact with the outer table Of
the skull, which had split it in half, one
| portion Of which had passed through the
| lid of the cap, and the other portion had
| buried itself three or four inches in the
substance of the brain--not, rs your cor
respondent says, between the skull and
the lining membrane of the BRAIN" This
case is remarkable from the nature of the
wound, which was entirely obscure and
deceptive, ,and more remarkable from the
fact that man had walked about for four
days with halt musket-ball buried in his
brain, without bad symptom.
