In the year 1856 I WAS reduced 10 the verge OF the
grave by dyspepsia, which had existed forfour years
Iurelieved by the best medical treatment. my Oh
crstion was so feeble that ! was unable to eat either
vegetables. meat, butter, or any other rich article OF
food. I was restricted to n dict of bread milk, mo
asses. &c, and was greatly pmaciatcd. For two
wears I had been very feeble, and was unable to do
even the lightest work. being generally confined 10
the house, and often a walk of twenty yards would
completely exhaust me-. l suffered greatly WIN
nervous debility. and my sleep was broken ana
Irregular.
In this condition In the summer Of 1866 / came 10
the STRIBLING STRINGS TO try the waters as i LAST
resort, and having only a faint hope that they might
benefit nc. For about elk weeks | used the alum

pally upon the alum. eat the end of this time | felt
like \ new, man. My digestion had greatly I'M
proved, and my strength had Increased SO that i
could walk three miles Z day without serious fatigue.
NV sleep also was sound and refreshing. When L
left the Springs took five gallons OF the water with
me, and used It ut home occasionally. continued
to improve and strengthen until the next summer
when I returned to the Strihling Springs, where l
remained two months. using tho water as before. i
again derived great benefit, and the next year could
eat nil ordinary articles Of food without inC"nyeni-
,pcr. and was strong enough to do almost any kind

A New Anestlletic--. Hydranyl.
From the Baltimore American, February II.

from inc Baltimore IQcElCAu, r tDTluary II.
DIR. Richardson, of London, has been
investigating a new anBstheuic, to which
he has given the name of hydramyk.
An account of his experiments is given
IN the "Half-yearly Compendium of
Medical Science, Part IX.' Gust pub
lished), which will be found interesting
even to those who never expect to I'M
dergo any more painful surgical opera
ton than the dislodging of a tooth or
the lancing Of a boil. DIR. Richardson
was in the habit of using a mixture OF
Iamvl hydride and rectiied ether for
producing anmsthesia; that is, by
freezing the spot through which the in
cision is to be made, by the rapid evap.
Grafton of the volatile substance
spurted upon it in the form of
spray. He noticed that when the
spray was uGed for an operation about
the nose or mouth the patient often
passed into a state OF general insensi-
bility to pain. The sleep produced was
so gentle, so deep, and yet so tempor-
airy, that DR.. Richardson rightly sup
posed he was on the track of a most
valuable discovery. He forthwith be-
gan a series of experiments in order to
ascertain whether it was tue vapor OF
the ether or of hydrlde which produced
the lnsensibility, and it was not long
till he assured himself that it was the
latter. When inhaled it created no ir
ritatlon, induced perfect insensibility
TO pain, and the recovery from its in
fiuence was singularly rapid. The most
interesting fact connected with the in
halation Of this gas is, that in many
instances it induces perfect insensibili-
ty to pain, and leaves the consciousness
comparatively unimpaired,
DIR. Richardson has also been eXper-
imenting with ~methylic ether. In sew
eral cases the patients, although quite
| ~insensible to pain, were able to obey
every request made of them, and some
of them kebt insisting that they were
not yet ready for the operation, because
they were entirely conscious, whereas
the cutting was going on all the time
| and they felt it not. One lady took
the anmsthetic and then pointed out
| successfully the teeth which she wished
TO have extracted, adjusting herself in
the chair after each tooth was drawn,
and vet no pain whatever. From this
and oth,r cases which came under his
notice, the Doctor very fairly assumes
that "ln the course Of time we shall dis
cover manageableandcerta angsthetic
| substances which will paraly re sensa-
ton only, leaving the muscular power
unaltered and the mental little dis
turbed."

Another coal mine explosion in Great
Britain and eleven lives lost. Science
seems helpless to prevent these dlsas-
ters IN the bltuminous mines OF Eng
land and Wales. In America nearly all
our accidents are the result of gross
negligence and defiance OF statute laws
on the part of the companies nearly
all of them occur. too, among the an
thracite mines Of Pennsylvania. Our
bitumincus coal is mostly taken from
near the surface of the ground, the
"shaft" being often merely a horizon
tai passage cut in the side OF the noun
tain, with ramiiications on the right and
left. Even our anthracite mines have
in few cases extended deeper than 600
feet. In England aud Wales, however,
the shafts sometimes extend II distance
of 5000 feet-more than half u mile
underground. The miners life IS like
that of the pearl diver; he constantly
faces well understood danger for the
sake Of gaining a livelihood. Ia enter

him not only the light and beauty OF

Science, however, has done much for
him. It has provided him with a
safety.lamp, and its efforts to yentilato

full. How many more lives must be
lost before the success is completed z
The record of the last year has not

A Ballad OF Calden Water.

-
Forward and backward from shore to shor'
All day the boat hath wendell;
But now old Andrew drops his oar,
As IL his task were ended.
nThe clouds are gathering black" he said,
"The pine trees wildly toesing;
The Traveller must be sore bstead,
Who seeks to- night the c~fossing."
He looks, and sees from vale or blu
Nc lated horseman riding;
Hut what In this so white and still,
Adown the pathway gliding?
He fears TO meet some spirit pale,
Or wrath from out the water;
He sees the " Daisy Of the Dale"
The proud Lord Gowen's daughter.
Oh many a time that timid dove,
Swift from her shadow flying,
Hath braved the darkness, all tor love,
To Caiden water hying.
And many q time before tonight
Hath Andrew rowed her over,
When softly through the waning Light
She stole to meet her lover.
But that was in the DAYS gone by :;
Alas the old sad story
Twas ere he heard the bugle-cry,
And turned from love to glory.
Twas when her foot came down the hui
As light as snow-iakes falling;
While over Calden water, still,
She heard her lover calling.
She heard him singing, clear and low,
.'The flower of love lies bleeding -
The very echoes long ago
Have ceased their tender pleading.
And he who sang their sweet refrain
II sleeping where they found him
Upon the trampiod battle plain,
with silent COmEGdes round him.
While shc-for months within the vale
Have tender maids been signing,
Becau g the Dai y Of the Ddle,'
Ils sweetest flower, wac dying.
And Andrew, rowing many p night,
Hath sadly unused about her;
While from her chamber, high, the light
Stroamed DER Calden water.
What marvel that he clasps his hands,
u prAys the saints 10 guide him
As, crossing now the cold vet sands,
Size takes her seat beside him.
She srcaks no word Of sweet command,
The proud Lord Governs daughter =;
She signs him With her flower-like hand
To cross the Caldsn water.
Trembling, old Andrew takes the oar,
Silent he roHa her over;
Silent she steps upon the shore
Where once she met her lover.
There is no sound of mortal tread,
Or mortal voice to greet her,
But noiselessly, aa from the dead,
Her lover glidcs to meet hor.
one moment they each other fold
In clasp of love und'lDg,
The next but shadows deep and cold,
Upon the shore are dying.
And sect the darkness grows more drear-
The pines more wildly tossing,
Aud backward TO the shore in fear
Old Andrew swift IL crossing.
Ho drops his oar. he leaves his boat,
lie haods not hend nor mortal;
ue's crossed the castles bridge and moat,
lie stands "tthin the portal.
stu on, as one who has no power
OF pausinR or of turning,
He mounts unto the very tower
Whore yet the light ia burning.
And there he secs n snow-whitc bed,
And secs with eycs afIrightad,
Set At the feet and at the head

LIVELY MINING ACCIDENT.
