Bitten by Spiders.

Under the heading of "The
Spider Epidemic" the Memphis
(Tenn.) appeal says: "Last
Sunday Mr.. Thomas Walsh,
master mechanic at the Louis
Vile Railroad shop at this point,
was bitten by a spider. The
wound inllamed, and last even
ing Mr.. Walsh was in a critical
condition on account Of the
poison injected into his system
by the venOmous insect. To-
day he was much better and is
out of danger. This morning
Mr.. j. d. Danbury was bitten
also by spider, and he had TO
summons medical aid, as be was
suffering intense pain from the
wound. 1t is reported that he
also is seriously i'll from the eff
fects of the poison. On Satur-
day last q little daughter Of
Capt. S. S. Garrett, while at
tending The Templars' picnic
down the Mississippi and Ten
nessee railroad, was bitten on
the face by a black spider. Her
face became terribly swollen
but no dangerous effects be-
came apparent. The spider
whose poison is SO vcnomous is
a small black one, which gencr-
ally has red specks on its body.
Its bite is exceeding poison
Gus, and from it many persons
have died on account Of not at
tending to the wound in time"

The TRANSMISSION of Blood.

The Loudon Telegraph says: We dare
say that Mr.. IA Irwin, medical student
of Manchester, has no idea that he Is a
peculiarly heroic person. Peradventure,
like many others Of his craft, he has had
to work SO hard in the cause of charity
that custom hath made it unto him n
property of easiness' to be generous
Yet we can not help thinking that the
following facts, as narrated in the col
umns OF medical contemporary, tell
tale of simple devotion to duty on the
part of Mr.. Irwin such as lifts us high
above that sphere ofksordid self seeking
which too often bounds the horizon Of
workaday life On the 22d Of July last,
we are informed, weakly, scrofulous
youth had one of his limbs amputated in
the Manchester lnirmary. -Four days
atterward he was found bleeding to death,
and in snch a desperate plight that, to
save him, Mr.. .Hariie, the surgeon. re-
solved to try q desperate remedy, known
as TRANSMISSION that is, the act of
transferring to the moribund patients
Where was the blood to be had In old
historic stories we read of gentle queen
who brayely sucked the deadly poison
from her royal husbands wound in or
der that she might save his life. But as
these days of ours are said to be only,
the days of small things, we dare hardly
expect TO find even such reasonable her
oism merely for the asking. Yet when
Mr.. Hardie announced his intention, one
of the students, MIR. II. Irwin, with as
generous spirit as that of the royal la
dy aforesaid, offered to supply from his
own veins the blood required to revivify
his pulseless fellow creature. A pint OF
the vital fluid was drawn from the veins
of the kind-hearted student. Having
been freed from fibrine, four ounces of it
were then slowly injected by means of
an extern po rized apparLtus into tho lar.
gest visible vein in the patients arm"
In couple OF hours the dying lad recov.
cred and recognized those around him,
and since then be has got well enough to
be transferred to the Convalescent Hos
pital at Cheadle. zs---
