The Healing art.

The Greeks believed that the nearest ap-
proach to the Divinity was successlul
physician, and they apotheosized Aesculapl-
us, and Appolonius OF Tyona for theircures.
The more scientific moderns testify their
appreciation of skill in the healing arts
rather by patronizing the living than deify-
ing the dead ; and this explains the crowd
of patients who have sought the office o'
Dr. Jones, at the Edwards House, IN this
city, coming, sometimes, hundreds of miles
for his treatment, and returning cured and
rejoicing. The Doctor has extended MS
stay until the twentieth of February.

UNCERTAIN CLEWs CONNECTED WITH THE
SCANDAL.

II was stated in several morning papers Yesterday
that the letters for which Mr.. Ovington was subpe-
naed by the counsel for the plaintiff written by
Mr. or Mrs. Ovington and that these letters were
:be cause Of Mrs Tltons sudden leavetaking OF her
husband last July. A reporter of THE TRIBUNE
called upon ex-Judge Morris for the truth concern
ing the story, which was first printed in an
Sunday newspaper, from which these other
journals had copied it, Mr.. Morris was found
in his private consultation rooms with Francis ID.
Moulton MIR. Morris said that the story was mere
s-work. and he would not undertake to correct
any of the untrue statements made Mr. Shearman
said that the story did not come from him, and he
did not think it was true Gen. Pryor. who had
been made responsible for the story in one instance.
said that he knew nothing about the story He had
read it in Sunday newspaper, but he was not ac-
Quainted with the facts.
The young man, William McDermott who be-
heves that in Miss Bessie Turner he has found Bis
ter, with whom he was placed in an orphan asylum
in Brooklyn many years ago. does not appear to
have the sympathy of the Young woman
herself. Mr.. Shearman, who THE TRIBUNE's
authority for the statements published yesterday,
derived bis knowledge from Mr. McDermott, whose
earnest search for his sister has attracted consider
able sympathy. But Miss Turner says that she
thinks the man is mistaken though he still con-
tnues his investigation, and no longer ago than
Saturday he reported to Mr.. Shearman the progress
he had made in the case. Mr.. McDermott, when
child was placed in an asylum with his sister Lizzie,
and Miss Turner has been also known as Lizzie
McDermott. Those facts taken i'll connection with
the obscurty which envelops the earlier events Of
Miss Turner's life, formed a remarkable coincidence
which Mr. McDermott took advantage of, and lie
continues his examination into the facts.
