An amusing story Is told Of the poet Whit
tier, who Is as modest as he Is gifted. He
was In the city not long since, and went to
hear Rev. =. II. Chaplin speak and lecture,
somewhere up town. The clergyman was
eloquent, as usual; his discourse, intcrlardod
with hlgh-wrought passages Of rhetoric,
closed with stirring poctical quotation, SO
well delivered that the Quaker bard ap-
plauded with the rest. Some one sitting next
10 him inquired "Do you know, Mr.. Whit
tier, who Is tho author Of that extract Z"
mo, do not. II sounds familiar, and like
the sentiment" why, the limos are yours,
Mr.. Whittier. You must remember them.
They arc from your famous anti-slavery
odss." 80 they are" said Whittier, after q
reflection, and blnshing like school girl
caught reading her nrst love-lctter. ~ really
did not recall them. Indeed, they sounded
so much better than they ever sounded be-
fore, that Il Ia not strange failed TO recog-
nlie them" The poet, thoroughly sincere,
did not recover for some time from the en-
barrassment Of outwardiy acclaiming his
own composition, but has now come 10 re-
gard y as so good q joke that he tells 1t Of
himself.

clear away the skull and expose the brain.
This, Il win b understood, Is q difficult oper-
alton, bat n done, and the animal may live
from three hours to four days.
All this has been done often enough before,
but the difficulty was TO- get sons mode Of

formed o Thousand times without leading. TO

ferrier Is known as faradising.
After uncoycring tho brain he applies the
point Of an electrode TO the eonvolutus OF
