LETTER FROM PHILADELPHIA.
PHILADELPHIA, March 4, 1874.

PHILADELPHIA, March 4, 1874.
To THE EDITOR OF THE NEW NORTHWEST:
Icannot forego thetemptation to steal
an hour or so from my studies to con-
gratulate our good friends Of Salem and
other parts of Oregon in their late work
in the good cause. All honor to those
noble men and brave women whO-were
not ashamed to step upon the platform
of equal rights, and allow their names
to go forth to the world as opposers of
wrong and injustice. This is step in
the right direction, which will form a
bright place in Oregon's best history
The people of Oregon are becoming
thoroughly awakened TO the necessity
Of this issue. They are being convinced
that there must be breaking up of po-
litical parties. Farmers, Changers, Me-
chanics, Good Templars, and women
particularly are thoroughly Disguised
with rings and partyism. They cry out
as with one voice: "Give US men with
principle, honor, brains, and broad
views, and we will support them. Let
rings, stealings, whisky and political
schemers go by the board" The people
all over the State are being ro1sed up
to the fact that they must sake a stand
for right. Thank God it is, to use a
medical term, a "eontagion," which
will spread and purify some of Oregon's
filthy political pools.
thought when came to Philadelphia
to study medicine that 1 should have
abundant time to write you once a week;
but find that time is a very scarce ar
tiele with ME. Attending lectures all
day, taking notes, reading up, preparing
for the quizzes and attending clinic pa
tients, you will readily see, must require
much time. consider clinic practice
one of the greatest advantages medical
students have. One hour each day is
set apart for the purpose of examining
clinic patients, who are brought before
the class and treated free of cost by the
college for the benefit of the students.
They are then turned over to the young
Doctors (students) who visit and prescribe
for them at their homes. This practice
embraces every form of treatment, sur
gerry included. Many poor, deformed,
mangled, crippled or diseased subjects
are laid upon the table, and after an
aesthetics are administered, the knife in
the hands of the surgeon is busy at
work, cutting away a tumor, an ulcer, or
perhaps a cancer; perhaps it is a carries
of bone; if so, he makes an opening
with his bistoury, and with the handle of
his knife and fingers, be tears away the
the flesh to prevent cutting arteries and
veins. When the diseased bone is
reached, it is thoroughly scraped and
eleansed, after which the parts are drawn
together with sutures and nature is left
to finish the work
Seeing that this article is sufficiently
long for your crowded space, 1 will alb
ruptly close for the present.

Hon. Rufus Choate, the great lawyer,
rarely failed to show mental supremacy
anywhere, and generally came off with
flying colors from any play with judge,
lawyer, or witness. But occasionally, when
teasing witness, he found his match and
was silenced. Here is case :
Choate, in an important assault and bat
terry case at sea, had Dick Barton, chief
mate of the clipper ship Challenge, on the
stand, and badgered him for an hour, that
Dick got his salt water up and hauled by
the wind to bling the keen Boston lawyer
under his batteries.
At the beginning of his testimony Dick
had said that the night was dark and
rainy.
Suddenly Mr.. Choate asked
"Was there moon that night?"
eyes, sir"
"Ah, yes moon"
Yes, full MOON"
"Did you see it?"
"Not,a mite"
"Then how do you know there was
moon?"
"The Nautical Almanac said SO, and
willIbelieve that sooner than any lawyer in
the land"
"What was the principal luminary that
night, sirP"
"Binnacle lamp aboard the Challenge"
"Ah you are growing sharp, Mr.. Bar
ton"
"What in blazes have you been grinding
me this hour for-to make me dull ?'
"Be civil, sir. And now tell me what
latitude and longitude you crossed the
equator in ?"
"Sho-you're joking!'
"No, sir, am in earnest, and desire
you to answer me-"
81 shan't."
"Ah you refuse, do you?"
"Yes; can't"
"Indeed You are the chief mate of
clipper ship, and you are unable to answer
SO simple question:"
eyes tits the simplest question I ever
had asked me. Why, thought every fool
of lawyer knew that there was no latitude
at the equator"

That's Whit Allied Her.

A few days since a woman with an ale
bottle in her hand, called at a liquor store
in Hamilton, Ont, and asked for pint of
gin. The bottle was one having less than
pint capacity-a good "nip" remaining
after the filling. The surplus the woman
offered to dispose of by drinking, and at
once carried the idea into effect. Smack
her lips with evident gusto, she gently in
timated that she had some business down
street, and would call for the bottle on her
return. She has not yet returned, and now
the proprietor wants the pay for the drink /;
he has emptied the bottle into the cask.
