union of the Siamese Twins, the secre; of
their vital organs and the direct cause of
their mutual interdepcndcnce for health
and life and growth, as well as the full in.
sight to their mysterious mental ana physi-
cal relations, are soon to be ascertained.
To that band of heroic and enthusiastic
scientists who, in the face Of the most ex-
IRENE difficulties, have found their way 10
the dreariest quarters of the south and
brought hithcr this quaint and curious hu.
man coalition, concerning which the curl
osity of the entire world now seems 10 be
greatly aroused, their professional brethren
generally render the hcarliest praise The
first official report Of the commission of
physicians recently returned from North
Carolina was rendered to the college Of
physicians and surgeons Of philadelphia on
Monday evening.

DR.. Pancoast then appeared and related
fully TO the meeting the difficulties and
perpeXlties of the trip. Dr. Pancoast was
then ccnsured for giving such publicity to
his movements, the plea being that he ap-
pearcd to be seeking a too great newspaper
notoriety. The Doctor then made full ex-
PLANTATION, and so clear aud conclusive were
his arguments that the college endorsed
both his action and the action of DR.. Allen
who was his companion.
The college then allowed the doctors the
sum Of $3.50 each for their trip, after
which a committee was at once appointed

CONTRACT WITH THE FAMILY

/
was read. It's full substance is as follows :
The doctors will be obliged 20 conduct
their work with the greatest care, as the
contract made with the wives OF Chang
and Eng is Il strictly legal document, and
wordcd so that the slightest variation from
it may be punished with the most severe
penalties. The document places the bodies
| of the twins in the hands Of the physicians
upon the condition that the examination
| be conducted only SO far as to settle sci
cntifc mysteries, and forbids any unneces
sary mutlaton of the corpses. 1t also
states that no photographs or cuts Of the
bodies, when under autopsy, shall be given
| to the world by either the physicians or the
photographers, and while the document
does not prohibit the practice of photo
| graphy during the post norton, il especial
/ ~ states that all negatives of such photo
graphs shalt become the direct property Of
Mrs Chang and Eng, and all money revert
| ing from sale Of the same shall be their
| own.
/ THE LIGAMRNr NOT 10 RE SEVERED
The contract forblds the cutting of the
connecting band in front, and strictly in
sists that all dissection of the same shall be
made from the rear SO rs not to interfere
with the appearance OF the bodies after
scientific curiosity shall have been satisfied
| The document Furthermore states that the
bodies shall be carefully disscctcd, with the
view Of covering up subsequently, all in
cisons made Ivy the knife.
PROBABLE EXHIBITIos or THE TWINS.
1t is evident that The families of the dead
Siamese iatend to use the corpses hereafter
for their own pecuniary emolument, and
that they intend to conform all photo
CRAPS and prints of the different stages of
the autopsy to their own personal advant-
age. 1t is denied that the Commission paid
any large amount of money to secure the
bodies, but in case of breaking of the
above contract the family will be able to
recover immense damages should the bodies
be found TO be in an extreme state of de-
composition. The contract cannot be pos
sbly adhered to. Though the bodies were
well cared for, and by means of all the re-
sources of the profession used in the en-
balming process, one of the doctors told
me that 1t was probable they had suffered
considerable decomposition, but not SO
much as to prevent perfect and satisfac-
tory autopsy. The autopsy will be placed
in the hands of the committee, and the
time of commencing the same will be left
to them. 1t is certain, however, that /,
will begin soon and that the next two days
will develop all.

tie in a bow knot. At the first
check he will generally go dancing

3. Take the tail of the horse be-

MONEY AT HOME AND ABROAD.
The nations of Western Europe, 1t Is
known, have contracted their cIrcu!a-
tien largely within year past, and
vet the prospect Of extreme abun-
dance in the money centres was never
more certain. In fact, in a late mum
Der of the Economist, anticipation Is
expressed that che extreme ease may
induce the German government 10
absorb part of the excessive supply
for their new coinage, their drafts on
the London market for gold having
for some time been suspended Com
pairing the condition OF affairs in Eu-
rope aud America, we find 1t identi
cal in two important resPects-the
dullness Of trade, and the sdperabun-
dance of idle money. Here, Us there,
the banks have more money than
they can employ with due regard to
security. Unfortunately, the resen-
blance extends no further. We are
shipping off our gold to Europe until
it has become drug in Londcn.-
Our CongreSsmen, says the Ledger,

smother the country with some hun
dreds of millions more greenbacks
and bank notes. although there is not
sufficient employment fol the millions
we have. The late Secretary OF the

In the absence of Congress, and the

his better judgment full sway, and,
instead of watching the money mar
kets of the great centres as to wheth-
er money Is tight or easy, look to the
credit of the country: and especially
to the bringing in and canceling of
