to his asheS!l once wanted to blister some
one in farm house, TAR from home. He
had nothing with him to do it with. He
asked his wife to tud him hammer

tea.ketlc ever the fire, aud, after the water
steamed and bubbled we'll, he lifted it out and
gently touched it to his patient in half dczen
spots over the seat OF pain, with very positive
effect: Boiled hammers were, for many years,
used 10 that neighborhood for pleurisy; and
every old lady knew nothing was equal to a
hammer; and there was long dispute whether
Ii should be caw-hammer or not. | think the

"a SHANE TO Our LAw.MAKERs."-C
ner Taylor was yesterday called upon TO-
view the dead body of Mrs. Emily J. Chick,
Il lunatic, who died in the city Jail Sunday
night about Z o'clock. Mrs. Chick was fifty
one years of age, belonged to a respectable
family, and with her husband long resided
in Chesterfield county. Having become in-
sane, she vas twice sent to Jail by the all-
thorlties of that county, they being unable
to procure accommodation for her in either OF
the insane asylums Of the State. About three
months ago she was committed 10 our city
Jail by acting Police Justice ". Ball Crew,
and efforts were again made to secure q
place for her in an asylum, but without avail.
She vas sick for good portion of the time
of her last Imprisonment, and it was in eVi-
dence before The jury of inquest, held yes
terday afternoon, that the nursing given her
was ouly such as the humanity of the pri-
soners about her prompted. DR.. Peterfeld
Trent, the attending physician, expressed
surprise that the mortality among such un-
fortunates confined in Jail is not greater.
he, however, cheerfully bore testimony
TO the eXcrtions made by the Jail
officers to relieve them as far as lay in their
power. In this instance, when Mrs. Chick
was raring the ja:lor had to lock her up in
room to herself. The jury of inquest, of
which Mr. B. c. Galloway was foreman
alter the examination of several witnesses,
returned the verdict following:
THAT the deceased came to her death by
pneumonia, on the 22d of March and they
are further of the opinion that the existing
laws under which the insane are confned in
Jail, with criminals for attendants, with the
chance of dying among felons, are shame
| to our law W-makers''
