An Eccentric Physician.

AMONG eccentric physicians we cannot
select a better instance than Garrick's
enemy, the facetious DR.. Monsey. A
poor doctor at Bury St. Edmunds, he OBJ
tanned a patron by saving Lord Godol
phin, who was ON his way to Newmarket
from an apoplectic attack. In Londor
he became the friend of Sir Robert Wal
pole.
Glow is it," said Sir Robert, "that
nobody will beat me at billiards or con
tradict me but DR.. Monsey?"
"Other people," said Monsey, "ge'
places; l get dinner and praise"
One of Monsey's oddities was his way
of extracting teeth. He would some
times fasten bullet to a piece of cat
gut, which he fastened to the guilty
tooth. He then loaded pistol with tht
bullet and fired. He once prevailed OF
friend to try this strange operation
but when ali was ready the patient re
pented and bawled out to Monsey tt
stop.
"Stop, stop! I've changed my mind.
"But haven't, and you're fool ant
a cowardr' said the doctor, pulling thu
trigger with malicious speed. Monsey
in old age became miser, and there il
| story told of his returning from "a jour

of noble content. He had hack in

"Thank me?" she said wondering.

Edna, all the old love there cries out for
you Can you love me little now?"
"Not little," she said in low voice,
her checks flushing rosily, but with my
whole heart, Walter"
"Then will you grant me my hope and
be married here and now, coming to my
old home as my wife, to help me in the
life-work to which your words guided
me?"
And Edna, loving him, granted his
wish, and in his old home proves, as he
hoped, true wife and helpmate in his
noble works of charity and usefulness

ROOM FOR ALL.

BY II. CLAY PREUss.
MEN build up their worlds like poor, blinded
With just room enough for their own narrow
souls.
white,
And there's only one line 'twixt the wrong and
the right.
Firmly believing their creeds to be true,
They wonder that others don't think as they
do.
In the ages agone they tortured each other,
And forced down their creeds in the throat of
a brother.
They forgot, in mechanics, no two clocks will
strike
Throughout all the hours precisely alike;
That our species, like clocks, are of different
kinds,
And mankind arc fashioned with various
minds.
All! tits a great truth to learn-a prize, if YOU
win it
"Thcre's room in the world for all that is in
itn
This life is play, where each human heart,
To make the denOuene,,t, must act out its part.
If all men, like sheep, should follow one way =,
Then life would, indeed, be very poor play.
'Tis the law of our being most pointedly
shown,
That each man must live out a life of his own.
All! be not too rash to judge of another,
But ever remember that man is your brother.
God made the owl see, where mans sight is
dim,
And the light that guides you may be dark
ness to hiHt
'Tis a great truth to lcarn-a prize if you win
it
"There's room in the world for all that is in
it."
Our mission on earth is well understood:
To root out the evil and cultivate good.
Down, deep in the innermost depths of the
soul,
A voice ever sings of q far-distant goal;
And it whispers so soft, like faint, mufllcd
breath,
There's something within us that's stronger
than death!
That souls arc but sown in this hard, earthly
clod,
To blossom and bloom in the garden Of God.
Oh, brothers! there's only one God for us all.
But his voice unto each makes a different
call.
Some see him in rags, as Jesus of old;
Some mitred, and blazing in purple and gold.
All! let us not proudly monopolize right,
Nor demand of a brother to see with our
sight.
'Tis great truth to learn-a prize if you win
it
There's room in the world for all that is in
it,"
-Georgeto,cn Courier.

A Bullet in His Brain.

THE Landis- Carruth shooting affair
has been the means of bringing to light
few remarkable cases of shooting and
remarkable recovery of persons whose
brains have been perforated by pistol
or rifle balls.
William V. Robinson is aged thirty
three years, and is bother by profes-
sion. In 1861 Mr.. Robinson enlisted in
Company K Capt. Timothy Moore, of
Camden) Sixth Regiment, New Jersey Vol
unteers, which regiment was attached to
Hooker's division of the Third Army
Corps He participated in every battle
fought by the Army of the Potomac ex-
cept Antietam and Burnside's mud cam
paign against Fredericksburg, and was
in over thirty general engagements, be-
sides a number Of minor ones, and was
three times badly wounded. Robinson
received his first wound at the battle OF
Williamsburg, being severely wounded,
and it was supposed for long time fatal
ly wounded, in the thigh. His second
! wound was received in the battle known
as the second Bull Run. The third
wound-in the muscles of the left arm
was received during Gen. Grants sue
cession of battles before Petersburg.
The second wound was received on
Aug. 80, 1862. The Sixth Regiment, to
which Robinson was attached, was sup
porting the Fifth Regiment, New Jersey
! Volunteers, which had been deployed as
skirmishers and was charging on the en-
emy. Of the shooting Robinson recol-
lects that a sharp pain darted through
! his ear and into his head, and then he
remembered nothing more. He was left
for dead, and remained on the battlefield
at least an hour, but was finally removed
and taken to the division hospital, suffer
ing untold agony from musket-ball
wound. The bali, either mimic or a
musket- ball, entered the left ear, cutting
off the pendulous lobe and taking an up
ward course through the brain, and
lodged near the upper part of the occlpl-
tai bone. The wound bled profuse-
! ly, and semi-consciousness returned to
him. Dr. Wiley, now at Cape May
who was the division hospital sur
geon at the time, probed for the
ball, but was unable to reach it.
Robinson convalesced rapidly, and in
a short time was able to bear Transports
ton to the United States general hos
pital at Chester, Pa, where the wound
was again probed in vain for the ball
In three months time Robinson was re-
turned to his regiment and performed
faithful service with it, for which he
was promoted to Sergeantcy, and re
mained with it until the close of the war
In "a conversation with our representa-
tive Robinson informed him he was un
able to work in the sun, and when he at
tempts to his head becomes almost i'm
mediately nuddIed and spins round like
a top, while sharp pains dart from his
left eye to the seat of the bullet. "But
how do you know the bullet is in youl
brain ?" remarked the interviewer. Be
cause feel it," was the reply. Although
shot directly through the ear, his hear
ing is unimpaired, and is as acute and
sensitive to sound as anyone's car. His
intellect and memory are good and but
"rarely is he troubled about the head. ,

TIE TWO FOXES.

On winters night,
As the moon shone bright,
Two foxes went out for prey.
AS they trotted along,
With froIc and song
They cheered the lonely way.
Through the wood they went,
But they could not scent
A rabbit or goose astray;
But at length they came
To some better game
In farmers barn by the way.
On a roOst there sat
Some chickens us fat
As foxes could wish for their dinners,
And the prowlers found
A hole near the ground,
And they both went in-the sinners.
They both went in,
With n squeeze and a grin,
And the chickens were quickly killed;
And one of them lunchcd,
And fcasted, and munchcd,
Till his stomach was fairly filed
The other, more wise,
Looked about with both eyes,
And scarcely would eat at all:
For, as he came in,
With a squeeze and grin,
He remarked that the hole was small.
And the cunning elf
Said to himself
"If | eat too much, it is plain,
As the hole is small,
shall stick in the wall
And never get out again
Thus matters went on
Till the night was gone,
And the farmer came out with pole;
The foxes both few,
And one went through,
But the greedy one stuck in the hole.
In the hole stuck he,
As stuffed as could be
With the chickens he had been eating.
He could not get out,
Nor turn about,
And so he was killed by beating.
Thus the fox, you see,
So greedy was he,
Lost his life for single dinner.
Now hope that you
Will believe it true,
And never be such sinner.

BY glory, fame and fortune led,
The armies of the white man tread
Ger fields with the same yerdurc on
As when they kissed creations morn
Where will their columns halt and rest {?
Our in the West, the bOundless West.
Without the trumpct's sound or drum,
! see their peaceful banners come
10 where, through waye-wOrn, canoncd
walls,
The lordly Colorado falls;
And where the grand Sic ras rise
Their snow-lincs on the golden skies.
The red nan climbs his rugged sleeps,
And, looking to the Western deeps,
Behold, where, on Paciilc's shore.
Ills home was once, but his no more.
EastV ard aS far he scans the plain,
He sees the never-ending train.
He hears hls peoples feudal strife,
In all this tide OF busy life
TO hIm its very touch will fall
Like lightning on his mountain wall;
He knows those all-levourng waves
uave long swept DER his fathers graves.
Where in homc-his father land
Safe from the white mans grasping hand?
Where can he with his people ny?
Where can he go in peace and die ?
Each way he turns. but death awaits
The palc-taced man is at his gates.
The ocean marks his setting sun
His doom is sealed-hlS race Is run.
LEBANON KY. May, 1874.
