UNPARALLELED SURGICAL OPERATION. On
Monday, December I'd, 1872, surgical op-
Grafton was performed by Drs. Gable and
Walters, of Pittsburgh, Pa, which is with
out a parallel. A young man, residing in
Stubenville, Ohio, was so unfortunate as to
get mouth-plate with five teeth thereon
fastened in his throat. Medical assistance
was summoned, and all efforts to withdraw
the plate were unsuccessful, and the physi-
clans in attendance pushed the plate further
down into the gullet The patient suffered
greatly, and efforts were made to employ a
surgeon that would undertake to cut the man
open and recover the plate, but a surgeon
could not be found in the city who would
risk the delicate operation. Finally, Drs.
Gable and Walters, of Pittsburgh, consented
to perform the operation. Chloroform was
| administered to the patient, and an itcision
was made in the neck, and the surgeon cut
steady to the top of the stomach. In the
language of DIR. Gable, "the mans heart
was beating against my right hand, while
the lungs and arteries were throbbng against
my left hand. An instrument was inserted
and the plate successfully removed" Our
informant, printer in our office, left Pitts
burgh, on the seventh day after the opera
ton, and the patient was recovering rapidly,
and later report by letter informs him that
he is entirely out Of ger.-Eureka Sem

he assisted her into the carriage. She drew
her hand away and buried her face in both
as the carriage rolled away. 1t was late in
the evening before Mrs. Everard returned.
Laurence, sitting in his own room, heard her
light step pass his door on her way up. He
listened with bated breath till her football
| sounded no more; then he threw himself on
the sofa and gave his mind to bitter rehec-
tions. The window was up and the radience
of full moon flooded the room. About an
hour afterward he was awakened from
troubled slumber by a peculiar roaring noise,
and found the room full of smoke. He
sprang up in an instant and made bis way
to the door, his first thought being of Cornne.
When be entered the hall he saw creeping
tongues of flame on all sides. He compre-
hended the situation at glance Corinne's
rooms were on the floor above. If he could
survive the flames long enough to reach her,
there was scarcely chance that they would
reach the ground alive. He dashed up the
stairs and opened the door. A stately figure
stood in the center of the room, the moon-
beams radating in halo around the proud,
dark head. Corinne's eyes, bright and fear
less, rested on Laurence as he stood in the
doorway with arms outstretched to her.
The fire was creeping up the floor.
"Corinne" Everard's voice rose, clear
and thrilling, above the roar of the cracking
flames. A faint shudder moved her from
head to foot-that was all.
"Cornne!!' There was no mistaking the
longing love and agony which thrilled through
his voice. Her head dropped and faint
flush stole across her cheek, plainly visible
in the hot, fierce glare that filed the room.
She lifted her white hand and motioned to
him to save himself alone
"Corinnel!!'' For the third time he called
her-with entreaty and command. With
light steps, with clasped hands and heavng
bosom, with eyes alight with love, she glided
to him through the fire that barred her way,
and was folded close in bis arms.
Soul had spoken to soul in the face of
death; heart had called to heart and an

DEAD,


Tell me, how long have been dead,
Oye that have walked to life
How long have been in this cell
With murderous phantoms rife I?
In this narrow, cold, earth-dark bed,
Tell me how long have been dead,
Coldly desolate, Dead
The walls of my casket have crumbled to dust
But a handful of earth am +;
The silver and jewels are tarnished with rust
Alas that ever should die
I, SO proud, with such stately grace,
Others reign queenly in my place,
Cold!y forgotten-dead.
They have buried me in the church-yard,
tritle too near the street;
can hear the tramp, tramp, tramp,
OF hundreds of passing feet;
Some times hear naughty tread
know It's his though am dead,
Long-forgotten, dead
Months have passed and the years have fed,
count not time by the hour,
The wind sghs dreary over my head
And rustles each dropping flower,
The glow-worm creeps at eve DER my bed,
But knows not how long I've been dead,
Coldly, chillingly, dead.

THE GREATEST NEWSPAPER.

The New York Hearld of the 9Th instant
Sunday is justified in congratulating itseli
upon appearing in quintuple form, with
twenty pages and one hundred and twenty
columns, feat scarcely paraleled in the
history of the daily press. The Herald has
family earned the position it now holds at the
head of the newspapers of the world. 1t
has been original bold and lavish in its ell
terprise in the collection of news. Few per-
sons appreciate the amount of labor expend.
ed upon single issue of a great daily.
The Herald celebrates its extraordinary is
sue by a description, which, with little mod
ification, serves as well for every issue of
any great metropolitan journal, and which
the readers of the Sentinel will thank us for
reproducing:
The Herald contains to-day one hundred
and twenty columns of matter, of which sew
enty-eight are occupied with compact, solid
advertisements. There are in these one
hundred and twenty columns about one mill
ion ems. To stereotype to-day's edition one
hundred and forty eight plates are cast, each
plate weighing thirty-eight pounds, thus
making total weight of five thousand six
hundred and twenty-four pounds of metal
used in stereotyping this single edition.
The paper is printed on FIVE Hoe rotary eight
and ten cylinder presses and two Bullock
perfecting presses, being seven presses in all
which enables us to issue the edition at the
rate of 600 sheets per minute, taking two
hours and halfto issue the $50 900 papers
AS this work is all'done within the space of
twenty-four hours, the labor can be readily
imagined even by those not familiar with the
business. Day and night the endless round
of work goes on. While men in ordinary
occupations rest and sleep the ceaseless task
of journalism knows no ntermission. Click,
click, click 60 the types into the sticks day
night, night and day, until the one million
ems have been set up and the matter proved
and corrected. Day and night, night and
day, the telegraph is at work bringing us in
telligence from all quarters of the globe, the
corps of correspondents, reporters and editors
are busy obtaining news, putting it into shape
or commenting upon the events Of the mo-
ment; the proof readers are at their post,
pursuing their onerous and wearying tasks
the stereotypers, pressmen and assistant;
are awaiting the instant when their services
are to be brought into requisition; for there
can be no delay, no pause, no rest, until the
daily paper is off the press and ready to 60
into the hands of its readers. All this for
each days paper, and all to be done within
the space of twenty hours Day and
night, night and day, the press. the great
engine of civilization, the educator Of the
people, the bulwark Of our free institutions,
labors and tolls for the people, and the ap-
pearance of the Herald to-day is sufficient
proof that the people appreciate the work
when it is well and faithfully done, and are
prepared to extend to it commensurate
reward.

Vegetables in Hop Gardens.

An English writer says: It is well
known in the southeast of England that
the hops are planted in rows, the hillocks
being. usually six feet apart; and that, as
they do not bear crop worth picking
until the third year, it is customary to
grow beans Or some other vegetable be-
tween the rows during the first year, and
in some places during the second year
also, so that the land should give some
little return, instead ofbeing proftless for
those two years. [ was lately passing
across a hop ground in which the hops
had just been picked, and I noticed in
one field that the hillocks of hops had
been planted at the usual distance from
each other, but that the rows were twelve
instead of six feet apart, and that the in
tervening ground was occupied either by
cucumbers, or bye double row of Brus-
sells sprouts, or by three rows of straw
berries. We all know how uncertain is
the crop of hops, and that partial or
complete failure of the hop crop is by no
means uncommon. Therefore could not
help thinking that this conversion of one
half of the hop garden into a vegetable
garden was a wise and prudent arrange
ment for securing a certain return from
the land every year. =

perhaps worth at thepresent time $50 600
clear OF all claims against his estate. CON.
menced his farm life about twenty wears
ago with but 5000 in cash. This was a
very small capital to begin farming with.
but he took but sar acres : and of the
money, small as it was, he put $500 away
in savings bank, at but four per cent.
Yet he assumed obligations to the amount
of $1,000, at six per cent. This was con-
sidered by those who knew of his plan as
a bad business operation; but the result
proved his wisdom, and he has acted
more or less on the principle ever since.
There are many who in the same time
have made as much as he has; but, as far
as we know, those who have not gathered
it together as he has, have been aided by
extraneous circumstances. Some were
perhaps fortunate in selling a piece of
land at high figures, or met with run of
good luck in some other way. But our
friend has had no such chances. He be-
gan with a love of farm life, determine
ton to make it his sole profession, and to
this end he labored; and, besides this, he
firmly and resolutely determined, come
what might, never to be Caught without
dollar in his pocket" His fortune is
the legitimate result of nothing but his
business. How few young men, with so
small a beginning as he have met with
such success; and yet, on these principles,
at least seventy five per cent of those who
go on the land might do quite as we'll he
has done. -Forney's Weekly Press.
