REMORsE of CONSCIENCE.

REMARKABLE ELoPEMENT OF VEST VIRGIN
la pAIR-A LOVING COUPLES PEDESTRIAN
Ish-TRUE LOVE THAT DID NOT RUN SMOOTH,
BUT THAT RAN FAR OVER THE MOUNTAINS
THE ARDoR OF LOVE COOLED, AND A SIN
SOMEWHAT AToNED FOR.
About four years ago James Townsen, OF
Pocahontas county, West Virginia, eloped
with his brother Ezekiel's wife. The dis
consulate Ezekiel started in pursuit Of the
fugitives, but after an unsuccessful hunt OF
a week or two returned homo to lament, in
tho solitude of his widowed home, the incon-
stancy of tickle woman.
Years passed on; the loving couple took
''the even tenor of their way across the
mountains of West Virginia, and crossed
over into OHIO, all the way on foot, where
they tarried for while, seeking that copJu-
sal bliss always dreamed of, but never p's-
sesssd by truant lovers. Finding that the
course of true love does not always run
smooth, they pulled up stakes, and, like the
''star Of empire westward took thelr
course.
They crossed ''the father of waters" and
still pushing os, travelled the plains, and
then, to cool the ardor Of heir love, ascend
ed the snow-capped SUBMITS of the Rocky
Mountains. Descending from these heights,
they tried living in the fertile valleys west
of these mountains, aud pitched their tents
in the neig borhood of Omaha. But, after
a while, James became tired of the felicities
of married life-the responsibilities attending
them became irksone. The idea of having
to supports wife-and she another mans
wife, TOD was too much for him. Remorse
Of conscience preyed upon his mind. He
found, toe late, that he hal destroyed the
happiness of brothers household, only to
bring additional care and grief to himself.
Willing to make what amends he could, he
resolved to return with his stolen wife and
restore her to the bosom of her liege lord,
and his injured brother. So back he came,
bringing his fair charge along. A few weeks
ago. one morning as the sun was just be-
ginning to cast its rofulgent beams over and
around the mountain cabin of the widowed
Ezekiel, and he having cooked and eaten his
breakfast alone, was washing the dishes,
lifted up his eyes, and looking towards the
door, beheld the former partner Of his joys
his long lost vito. Either supposing it
to be an apparition or unwilling to have his
affections blasted again, he fed through the
other door, leaving tho inconstant wife to
try life without partner for a while. James
left Immediately after delivering his charge,
and it is not improbable that he is in Wash
ington by this time, expecting an appoint
ment as minister to Spain, vice Sickles.
He is sufficiently qualified for the position,
in the eyes of the present administration
Let him have an appointment, Mr.. Presi-
dent, if you have to send him to Utah.

THO THE MEDICAL GENTLEMEN
il OF VIRG INA.
GENTs:-At the last meeting of the Medical So
ciety Of the State Of Virginia, held in Richmond,
the following resolution was unanimously adop-
ted, and the undersigned appointed a committee
to carry it into execution:
'Resolued, That Committee be appointed to
address the medical profession of the State in re-
gard TO the objects Of the Society,"
The objects of the Medical society of the State
are two-fold. The first object contemplated is
the collection, diffusion and the advancement of
medical knowledge. The second is to throw
around the profession such safeguards as shall
require every member to make such requirements
in medical knowledge as to justify his admission
age the hope that he will reflect honor upon the
cause he thus espouses. 1t is a source of great
concern and regret that the profession we repre-
sent has been, of late years, SO much injured by
idle, illterate and unworthy members, and de
graded by unprincipled charatans, whilst the
efforts Of tie true sons of science have been to
promote the standard of medic al learning and
contribute aid to suffering humanity.
1t is to do away with these evils, to discard
from the profession and from society the empiric
to make mems health and lives more secure, and
to promote unity of action, social and profession
al good feeling, that we thus address you.
'Deornm im7nortaliun tnuentioni consecrata est

wisdom of Hippocrates, the patriotism of War
rem and of Arthur Lee, the inspiring example of
the founders of the Medical art in America, and
above all, the command of the great Physician,
Ito 60 cut and heal the sick, are appeals to ev-
cry physician in Virginia to contribute hearty
and prompt assistance in the completion of our
stare Medical organization.
We would, therefore, earnestly solicit the CO.
operation of every intelligent Physician to carry
out the closing part of the resolution, viz: that
the Physicians in every town and county of Vir-
gina, shall at once organize County Medical So
cietes and shall require of every member STRICT
observance Of the Code of Medical Ethics as
adopted by the Medical Association; that each
local Society shall adopt rates Of charges suited
to their particular locality and ahal require ev-
cry Physician with whom they may consult, to
subscribe to the same compact.
The undersigned believe that so soon as the
above suggestions are brought before the Medi-
cal gentlemen of the State they will unite heart
and hand in promoting tho best and highest In
terests of our noble profession. A soon as the
County Societies are organized, they are respect
fully requested to report to the Secretary of the

thousand counties in the Southern states
show What needed no showing, that with
negroes freedom is Synonymous With death.
When slavery existed the negroes in the
South increased ten fold in fifty years, but
within the last ten years their multlplica-
ton has been scarcely pereeptlble, and SO it
becomes very probable what legal slavery ins
creased illegal slavery has diminished. Once
the masters were men now they are want,
