The Late Baron de Palm.

An examination was to have been
made of the body of Baron de Palm,
yesterday, by the medical staff Of
Roosevelt Hospital. but at the hour APP
pointed, none Of the physicians invited
had appeared, and the only visitors
present at the vault in the Lutheran
Cemetery, will " Fiiiiiiiallshb1rg, were several
representatives Of the press, and Brock
hurst, the embalmer. The coffin was
opened, and the body Has shown. It
presented somewhat shrunken ap.
pearance, was ashy gray from its re
cent coat Of powder, aud was like
leather to the touch. The eyes had
dropped IN their sockets, the hair OF
the head was firm in its place, and the
whiskers on one side of the face were
perfectly preserved. The joints were
flexible. An incision made with a
lance ia the calf of the leg showed the
muscles to be nearly dry, while the
body emitted no odor more offensive
than that of carbolic acid. Under the
same treatment continued, 1t would IL
the course OF time become hard and
dry The health authorities Of Brook
lyn have granted certificate permit.

on December 6 it will be taken te

A Wonderful Surgical Experiment.

English surgical and physiological
students will find il the Gazette des Hop
iiea,lz interesting details Of an operation
Of gastrotomy, attended go far with
successful results, which has been per-
formed at the Hospital de la Pitie, by
DR.. Vernenil. The patient. q lad Of
seventeen, had Inadvertently swallowed
4 quantity Of the solution of caustic
potass. This occurred in February,
and in spite Of the most skillful treat
inert, the construction at the upper orr
fee Of the @sophagus became so COM
plete that death from inanition must
inevitably ensued without an operation,
which was accordingly performed on
the 26sh Of July.
The results will be seen from the
medical bulletin Of the 10th Of Septem-
Der. which states thai the patient is in
good health, remains up all day, and
even helps the hospital assistants in
their work; he has almost as much
strength and energy as. had before the
accident. His diet is composed Of
soups, fne-chopped meat mashed veg
etables and drink, which are elected
through large elastic tube inserted
in the insision made in the stomach.
Under this treatment he gained upward
of ten pounds in weight between the
18th Of August and the 18th Of Septem-
Der.
At the moment of the injection
q flow of saliva in the mouth is pro.
sduced, in the election Of which a mo-
ton curiously milling the action Of
chewing is remarked; he can distin-
guish between warm and cold sub
stances, but otherwise all are indiFer-
ent to him. 1t is stated this is the first
time the operation has been successful
ly performed, the last time it was at
tempted, but uusuccessfully, was 1849,

ty Of Medicine Of Strasburg. Paris

An Artists Will.

A biography of the artist Turner will
soon be published in London. Taking
some of the facts given, M. D. Conway
writes:
Turner left a cloudy will. It was
evident that he meant that certain
sums should so to poor artists, but
these requests written in a codicil
with his own hand-were SO full Of in
terpolations and confusions, that When
the next of kin had failed in-their eff
forts to prove that the testator was of
unsound mind, they succeeded so far
as to secure a compromise. What
ever, therefore, Turner may have in
tended, his estate consisting Of fl40,-
600 and his vast number Of pictures,
sketches and engravings-was disposed
of on March 10, 1856, as follows: /.
The real estate to go to the heir at law.
2. The pictures and sketches to 60 to
the National Gallery on the conditions
OF the will. 3. One thousand pounds
to 90 to the erection Of q monument IN
St. Paups Cathedral. 4. Twenty thou
sand pounds to the Royal Academy,
free OF legacy duty. .. Remainder 70
be divided between toe next of kin.
The documents in this chance-y suit,
which lasted four years, are Of several
tons weight. The bills Of cost alone
would fill butchers cart Toe law
yers grew fat on the wealth for which
Turner stlnted himself that he might
endow English art. He heaped up
riches, and it is to be hoped knows not
who may have gathered large pro
portion of Them"
Lincoln County advocate. (Canton, Dakota Territory, [S.D.]) 1876-1877, 1876-12-27

WHETHER, considering their natural
jealousy, which is proverbial, the Mex
lean women could be subjugated to
polygamy may well be doubted, but
certain it is that the men will make the
effort If ever the doctrines of Brig
ham Young take q strong foothoh in
this republic. The Mexican women
are greatly in excess Of of the men; SO
much SO, that the dispro portion is i'm
mense. Leading Mexican minds are
now seriously bordering over this
problem, for so unequal division Of
the sexes produces startling social
results. Within the near future Mexi-
co will be polygamic empire, if moi
frustrated by the United States. - Letter
from Merico.

cation which set in with the tide Of
Greek colonists, and which the vicissi-
tudes OF after-.imes we're in great
measure powerless to affect. As the
traveller breaks through the Apennine
gorges after Benevento, he advances
across the Tavoliere di Puglia, gran.
airy now, as it was in Roman times, d
vast wind-blown, fat surface, unlike
any other region in Italy, and for par
allel to which one must go to the fer
tile but dreary and desolate districts Of
CASTLE and Aragon. There is not a
tree, not bush in sight-.nothing liv-
ing or telling Of life, save here and
there, at great distances, some huge
farmhouse, with high fencing, walls,
and turrets, the tokens of former inse-
curity, and in the home field around it
q shaggy herd grazing, tended by a
herdsman still shaggier. There is moth

notonous vastness. The mountains in
your rear vanish in the autumn
haze before you are in sight
Of the ridge of the Gargano,
q long, smooth ridge, dipping in the sea
far away on your left, and forming the
clumsy space above the heel of the
boot. AS you reach Barletta, and the
railway tends seaward to the shore, the
look of the country improves. The
land is still level, but it teens with the
vine, the olive and mulberry. A few
evergreen oaks and stone pines tower
aloft over the orchard, the acacia lines
the railway track, and each station has
its attemp at flower beds and shrub
berries, as on the Rhine or in Switzer-
land. Towns, villages and isolated
houses, however, as you hurry past
Barletta, Trani, Bari, ETC., almost in

One may fancy what must look like in
the long summer months, glaring in
the sun, unrelieved by the shelter of a
tree or by the shade and freshness Of
more sober hues. The movement
along the line and at the stations was
considerable; the peasantry are in
the main well.dressed and well-to-do
looking people, for Puglia, unlike Cal.
abria and the other Southern prov
inces, is an orderly and laborious COM
munity. In first-class carriage,
however, / should have been alone but
for the company Of priests Of high
rank, in fine, long robes, purple stock

their breasts, portly bishops and mon.

bearing witness to the thriving con-
dition Of part, at least, of the clergy
in Italy, after SO many years of the
squabble between church and state.
