DRESSING WoUNDs.-Dr. AlphOnse
Guerin, an eminent surgeon of the Hotel
Diem, in Paris, has presented to the
French Academy of Sciences a memoir,
of quite an interesting and important
character, on the influence of atmos-
pheric germs on surgical maladies, and
in which he strongly advocates the use
of tow dressing for wounds. He states,
as the result of much observation in
this line, that, when this material is
packed upon the injured part, the pus
is completely preserved from putrid
fermentation. He used the tow, in
brief, as a filter for the air, which cir
culates freely through it, and, i'll fact,
produces an arrangement which is de-
scribed as highly analogous to the cotton

Rapid Increase of Population.

Baltimore has had a sensation recently
in the sudden increase of its population
by the birth of quartet sisters. The
mother of this interesting progeny is
an American woman, about thirty years
o age, and the wife of a cigar maker,
whose pecuniary circumstances are
hardly equal to the drain on his purse
which this extraordinary event must
necessitate. He expresses a willing
ness, however to do the best he can
under this visitation of providence.

quite as good humored rs c0uld be ex-
pected. The ladies of Baltimore of
all classes of society evidence quite an

THE CARE OF THE FEET.-A few days
since young lady, who suffered from
almost constant and severe headache,
though perfectly healthful otherwise,
consulted physician with respect to
her malady. The first question asked
by the physician was, "What do you
wear on your feet ?" For reply the
patient put out her foot, incased in a
thin cotton stocking and a morocco
slipper. Further inquiry elIcited the
fact that she wore no more clothing on
her feet or the rest of her BODY in win
ter than she did in the hottest part of
the summer. Do you suffer from
cold feet?" asked the physician. "Oh.
yes was the reply; my fee haven't
been warm for a year; they're always
cold" 1t ought to be needless to say
that the prescription of the physician
was wooden stockings, thick shoes, and
a covering of flannel over the entire
person.

CURIOsITIES OF LANGUAGE.-The Hin
docs are said to have no word for
friend" The Italians have no equiv
alent for oar humanity" The Rus
sian dictionary gives a word the detinl-
tion of which is, mot to have enough
buttons on your footman's waistcoat ;;
a second means to "kill over again ;"
third "to earn by dancing" The
Germans call thimbIe " finger hat, "
which it certainly is and a grasshopper
"hay-horse. A glove with them is
a "band SHOE" showing that they wore
shoes before gloves. The French,
strange to say, have no verb "to
stand nor can a Frenchman speak of
" kicking" any one. The nearest ap-
proach he, in his politeness, makes to
it, is to threaten to ''give blow with
his foot" the same thing, probably, to
the recipient in either case, but 1t
seems to want the 6irectness, the en-
ergy, of our "kick" The terms sup
stairs and down stairs " are also un-
known in French.
A FEW Sundays ago the Rev. Father
Martiguon preached to a fashionable
audience in the Church of NOtre Dame,
and in his sermon mildly remarked
that those who should frequent the new
opera-house would go to hell, without
any hope of rescue. Carpeaux's group
of sculptured Racchus and Baechantes

WHAT is GENTGLITY p Chesterfield
states that immoderate laughter is the
most vulgar stamp. In New England,
in the last century, it was considered
vulgar for man TO be without a queue.
Mrs. Somerville relates that when she
demonstrated with her father for wear
ing one he remarked, "If cut IL of by
= the head must go with IT,. Out in
Kansas met an Enghshman engaged
in stock raising and he gloried in dining
at half-past seven nj night, the same as
he used 70 in his fathers house in Lon
don. Dining in a swallow-tail coat at
half-past seven was his idea of gentility.
