Great Surgical Feat.
A MAN GIRAFFE LIKE A TREE.


The case of George Gardner, of this
city, who, as our readers may remem-
Der, had his foot crushed OH the H. X.
and Il. II. r., some time since, has Civ
en- rise to an experiment and a result
in surgery of great interest to the pro-
fession and destined to command the
attention of scientific readers every
where. A report of the case will
doubtless find its way to the medical
Journals, -bu. we may, without impro-
priety, give an outline of the expert
ment.
1t has always been difficult to cause
the healing Of wounds where any large
surface of the skin was gone, as moth
ing but skin will produce new skin,
and this only for q short distance (lcss
than an incl) around the marsin.--
Hence, in making amputations, it has
always been considered necessary to
preserve a flap of skin to told over the
exposed end of the limb in order to
form covering of skin and good
Stump But in Gardeners case the
patient was too weak to admit of am
putation, and it was a question OF life
or death to save the ankle-joint and t.
form skin covering for the crushed
and mangled stump. This was done
by wonderful process, viz: by trans
planting or grating on the wounded
part from time to time small portion
of skin from another part of the body

wheat. were taken from the patient

If the latest reports from the Da-
rien Surveying Expedition, under Cap,
tain selfridge, be true, the project OF
an interoceanic ship-canal across the
istllmus may be considered as an idea
soon to be realized. More recent sur
veys of the locality selected by Captain
Selfridge show that along the line OF
the Atrato, Turgra, and Cue rivers
seventy-fve miles of navigab]e waters
can be made available. AS the dis
lance between the two oceans at this
point is only l25 miles, fifty miles OF
canal remain to be constructed, which,
in connection with the natural route
by the rivers, will insure free and un-
impeded communication by ships be
tween the Atlantic and Pacific. OF
these fifty miles thirty are through
level land, and the highest point in the
remaining twenty miles is said to be
not over one hundred and fifty feet
high, and Captain Selfridge has, hopes
of finding a point not higher than sew,
enty five or one hundred feet. A
rough estimate of the cost of construct
ing the canal places the expenditures
at $3.50, 0O0,0O0 ~ b

u A physician in Australia, accord
ing to the British Medical Gazette, mas
discovered way of distinguishing
human blood from the blood of other
animals. 1t, is wonderfully simple,
and is thus described: "A small drop,
not a mere speck, of the blood is to be
placed on microscopic slide, and
carefully watched, at a temperature OF
"a degrees to SO degrees Fahrenheit,
until the picture of network formed by
its coagulation is developed. Human
blood speedily breaks up into a small
pattern network ; tho blood of other
animals takes longer time, and makes
larger pattern--but the blood o.
every animal seems to form charac'
teristic picture" .1

Reasons Why Married Men 0utlive
Bachelors. 9a.s

DR.. Hall, in his health articles, gives
the following reasons why married
persons live longer than those who
remain single: Bachelors are always
in state of unrest; they feel unset
tied. If indoors after supper there is
a sense of solitariness, inducing sad
ness, if not settled melancholy, with
all it's depressing influence and many
hours in the course of the year are
spent in gloomy inactivity, which is
adverse to- a good digestion and al
vigorous and healthy circulation. His
own chamber of house being so unir-
wiling, the bachelor is inclined to seek
diversion outside, in suppers with
friends, in clubs which are introduce
tories to intemperance and licentious-
ness, or to those more unblushing as
sociations which, under the cover OF
darkness, lead to speedy ruin of health
and morals; and when these are gone,
the way downward to an .untimely
grave is rapid and certain. On the
other hand marriage lengthens a mans
life by its making home inviting; by
the softening influences which it has
upon the character and the affections !;
by the cultivation of the better feel
incs of our nature, aud in that proper
ton saving from vice and crime
There can be no healthfnl develop
ment of the physical functions OF our
nature without marriage; it is neces-
sary to the perfect man, for Divinity
has announced that it was "not good
for man to be alone"
Marriage gives laudable and happy
object in life, the provision for wife
and children, their present comfort
and future welfare, the enjoyment il
witnessing their happiness, and the
daily and hourly participation in affec.
tomato interchange of thought ant
sentiment and sympathy; these arr
the considerations which antagonlz'
sorrow and tighten the burdens of life
thus strewing flowers. and casting sun
shine all along it's pathway.
yoltaire said: "The more married
men you have, the fewer crimes Their
will be. Marriage renders a man NOR
yirtuous and more wise. AS unmar
6 ried man is but half a perfect being

Prof. Edward B. Nicely, of st.
,Joseph. one of the most prominent and
successful educators in the State, gives
the Journal of Education the follow
ing earnest word of commentator in
a letter to one of the daily papers in
that city. He says:
"Its editor aud publisher, Mr.. j. B.
Merwin, is known all though the
States as an able writer and lecturer,
and is one of the most earnest and
efficient advocates of popular education
in the West and South. He is the
very man to take hold of this enter
prise to make it a success. l know
him not only by reputation, but per-
sonally, and hence speak advisedly.

director of q sub district or clerk OF

ance to him in the discharge ofhis otfi-
cial duties. Two features, in particu.
lar, render it of special value to school
officers. One is what is called the
"oficial department" which contains
each month the opinions and decision;
of the State Superintendent upon the
doubtful and less understood portion O
the school law. This feature alone
makes it worth more than the sub
scription price to our School Directors
many of whom are Inexperienced ant
at a loss frequently to understand ou
school law with its various amend
ments. The other feature alluded to, is
that each number of the Journal vii
contain an elevation and ground plal
of a school building, designed to &C
commodate from fifty to six hundred
pupils. This is, indeed, a most in
teresting and valuable feature. If th

HEADQUARTERS IN THE SADDLE"
PoPE.-The Senate, Saturday, had un-

priation bill, which finally passed.
One amendment tabled after long dis
cussion) called for an appropriation OF
100000 for building stables for the
use of the military service at Fort
Leavenworth. Mr.. Davis, of Kentuc-
XIV, referred to the fact that John Pope
had recommended the erection of such
buildings. The venerable Senator
from Kentucky then proceeded to say
ssThis recommendation reminds me OF
an anecdote l heard in relation to Cen
eral John Pope during the late rebel
lion. 1t will be recollected that after
the battle of Shiloh, General John
Pope advanced to Grenada and achiev-

locality. He published proclamation
that he had taken, 1 think, ten thou,
sand arms and thirty thousand prison
ers. When the thing came to be ex'
planned, his army had occupied Ger
tain portion of country, and he conjec,
tured the amount of population within
that area of country, men, women ant
children, and he claimed that thu
whole of them were his prisoners
About that time one of his soldiers,

been wounded or had camp fever, from
disease or the casualties of battle, wa
