Many cases are coming up continually
before coroners, and coroners' juries.
which require judgment to be pro-
nounced on the probable cause Of death
wounds.
DR.. William Macewen. in the Glas-
gov Medical journal, gives careful
study of II cases, including 104 wounds,
produced by 81 different articles. He
concludes:
l. Blunt instruments sometimes pro-
duce scalp wounds having straight out
lines, and sharp. clean edges, which in
these respects could not be distinguished
from the wounds produced by sharp,
cutting instruments.
2. Scalp wounds, which exhibit en-
tire hair bulbs projecting from the sur
face of their sections, have been pro-
duced by blunt instruments.
3. Wounds exhibiting nerve fila
ments. or minute blood vessels bridging
the interspace between the lips of the
wound, toward the middle of the depth
of the section, while the tissues have re-
coded all around them. below rs well as
above, have been produced by blunt,
non-penetrating instruments.
4. When wound, even with sharp,
well-defined margins, bears in contour
a resemblance to an Osseous ridge in
close proximity, there is a probability
that it was produced by blunt instru-
ment, through forcible impact against
the underlying osseous ridge.
.. Cut hairs, found in the immediate
vicinity of wound. are valuable aids
in determining whether sharp or blunt
instrument has been made us Of
6. AS to the diagnosis between
wounds produced by instruments of the
knife kind, and other sharp-edged sub
stances, such as glass, earthenware. etc =,
no dependence can he placed on the
mere regularity of outline or sharpness
of edge, or the reverse.
Z. Sharp, clearly defined wounds, in
certain cases, present peculiarities in
their termination which may he suffi-
cicnt to enable probable diagnosis as
to whether they were produced by a
knife, or portion of glass or earthen-
ware.
8. The same instrument, used by the
same person in delivering several sue
cessive blows, may produce wounds Of
different characters.

WONDERFUL FEATs OF INDIAN Con-
JURoRs.-One OF the many wonderful
tricks of conjurors in India, is to make
the dried skin Of cobra live. They
allow the beholder every opportunity
to see how it is done, and at the last
stage of the jugglery but one, he may
examine the basket, to see that nothing
but the serpent skin is in it. A white
cloth is taken by the juggler and placed
over the basket, after having been we'll
shaken, so that you may be assured moth
ing is in it. A pipe is produced, and
with horrible noise, similar to that al
ways made by snake-charmers, and not
unlike the sound a cracked and badly
made bagpipe would emit, is made. No
one goes near the cloth or basket except
the almost naked man, who cannot pos
sibly hide any live snake in his sleeves,
for the simple and sufficient reason that
he has neither sleeves nor jacket. The
sheet is lifted, and, on the lid being
opened, a most distinctly energetic
serpent is discovered. No sooner is it
stirred than it rises on its tail, spreads
out its hood, and strikes with its fangs
and tongue at the charmer. The snake
gone, stout, strong girl comes for
ward, makes deep obeisance, and then,
stepping back, throws man weighing
fully one hundred and fifty pounds over
her shoulders. Nor does she stop here,
for she seizes her victim once more,
places him crOsswise on her back, and
losses him in the air as though he were
made of feathers, and not broad
shouldered human being. Turning
backward on her feet, she picks up
straws with her eyelids, throws somer-
saults, and lifts weights which would
astonish the ordinary acrobat. While
she is thus performing, jugglers are
changing pebbles into birds, birds into
eggs. and eggs into plants; men thread
beads with their tongues, join innumer-
able pieces of cotton into one long cord,
keep half score Of sharp knives in the
air at once, throw cannon balls with
their toes, and spin tops on the end of
twigs.-PaU Mall Gazette.

WINES FOR THE Stockport wine is
more used than any other kind of wine
for the sick, but it is also wine more
adulterated than any other, and there
fore requiring extreme caution in its Sc
lection. A new adulteration of the arti-
Gle is mentioned as having been recently
introduced, and which is in some cases
actually dangerous, especially when
partaken Of by feeble or delicate per-
sons. This is described as an artificial
coloring, consisting of a mixture of
ozalin and Magenta red. The aniline
colors, Questionable in themselves, are
the more dangerous because they not
unfrequently contain arsenic. The adul-
teration is detected by shaking the sus-
pected wine-and all cheap wines are to
be suspected-with an equal volume Of
amylic alcohol, that is. fusil oil. If
genuine port, the amylic alcohol re-
mains colorless; if adulterated, it dis
solves out the coloring matter, and itself
appears of purple red.

The japanese.

The Japanese are mixed race,
formed mainly by tho amalgamation If
two distinct stocks; one of which,
styled by Mr.. Griffis, the Yamato, from
a province of that name in Central
Hondo, came apparently from the South.
and long before the Christian era, were
in possession of the Southern islands,
from which they set out for the con-
quest OF Hond, which, with Yezo, was
peopled by race contemptuously
styled ebisu, or "barbarians," who had
descended from the northeast of Asia,
and are identified with the Amos, rem
nant of whom are still found unmixed
in Yezo. and are occasionally to be met
with in the capital Mr.. Griffis gives a
characteristic portrait of ono of these.
The complexion is q dark brown; the
eyes not set obliquely; the nose low,
with rounded lobes; the mouth large;
the hair black and abundant, clipped
short in front, but falling in abundant
masses over the back and shoulders;
the beard and moustaches usually long
and thick. They are emphatically a
hairy race, the entire body of tho males
being sometimes covered with fell of
hair an inch long. The Amos are the
stock upon which the other races have
been grated, and whose language forms
the basis of the japanese of to-day.
compelling the numerous words which
have been adopted from the Chinese to
conform to its own laws Of construc-
ton, somewhat as the Saxon masters
the Latin element of the English Ian
guage. ''The japanese vocabulary"
says DIR. Hepburn, ''has been greatly
enlarged and enriched by the introduce
ton of Chinese words, all taken from
the written language and not from the
in Japan. So extensively have these
words been introduced that for almost
every native word the Japanese have an
equivalent Chinese word. But in COM
mon usage the names of things, family
relationships, and the words which ex
press the wants, feelings, and concerns
of everyday life, are for the most part
native words, while the technical. philo-
sophical and scientific terms are Chi
neSe.
The distinctive types of the two races
are still apparent among tho Japanese.
In the upper classes we see the fine,
long, oval face, with prominent, we'll
chiseled features, deeply sunk eye-sock-
cts, oblique eyes, long dropping lids,
elevated and arched eyebrows, high mar.
row forehead, round nose, bud-likc
mouth. and pointed chin; contrasting
strongly with the round, Hattened face,
less oblique eyes, almost level with the
cheeks, and straight noses expanded
and turned up at the roots, which pre-
vail among the agricultural and labor
ing classes. - Harper's Magazine for

IT is difficult to convince an English
jury that man has not an inherent
right to be eccentric. In the will case
of Purdon against Lord Longford, it
was shown: First, that the testator,
Adolphus Cooke, did not believe in
Christianity; second, that he believed
in the transmigration of souls, end
would not allow dog to be hurt, mas
much as the soul of his grandfather was
in the animal; third, thet he used to
have twigs carefully collected, to save
the crows the trouble of looking for
them to build their nests; fourth, that
he had windows shaped like fddles
built in his house; fifth, thai he be-
queathed his property to a son Of the
Earl of Longford, and left the heir-at-
law, the plaintiff, out in the cold. The
jury decided that these eccentricities
were not proofs Of mental alteration.

There are times when everything
seems to go wrong. From seven o'clock
A. NJ, till ten p. NJ, affairs are in twist.
You rise in the morning, and the room
is cold, and button is off, and the beef
steak is tough, and the stove smoke,
and the pipes burst, and you start down
the street, nettled from head to foot.
All day long things are adverse. Insin-
nations, petty losses, meanness on the
part of customers. The ink-bottle up
sets, and spoils the carpet. Some ono
gives a wrong turn to the damper, and
the gas escapes. An agent comes in, de-
termined to insure your life. when it is
already insured for more than it is
worth, and you are afraid some one will
knock you on the head to get the price
of your policy: but he sticks to you,
showing you pictures of old Time, and
the hour-glass, and deaths scythe, and
a skeleton, making it quite certain that
you will die before your time, unless
You take papers in his company. Be-
sides this. you have cold in your head,
and grain of dirt in your eye, and you
are walking uneasiness. The day is out
of Joint, and no surgeon can set it.
The probability is that, if you would
look at the weather-vane, You would find
that the wind is northeast, and you might
remember that you have lost much sleep
lately. 1t might happen to be that you
are out of joint, instead of the day. BE
careful and not write many letters while
you are in that irritable mood. You will
pen some things that you will be sorry
for afterward
Let us remember that these spiked
nettles of life are part of our discipline.
Life would get nauseating if it were all
honey. The table would be poorly set
that had on it nothing but treacle. We
need a little vinegar, mustard, pepper,
and horseralish that brings the tears,
even if we do not feel pathetic. If
this world were all smoothness, we
would never be ready for emigration
to a higher and better. Buster
ing March and weeping April pre-
pare us for a shining May. This world
is a poor hitching-post. Instead of
tying fast on the cold mountains, we had
better whip up and hasten on toward
the warm inn, where our good friends
are looking out of the window, watch
ing to see us come mp.

worked beyond its powers the welfare
of the pupil demands the observation
of this rule on the part OF the master
as well as the parents, moro especially
when the child belongs to that class Of

however, these are generally the pupils
selected by the master to do credit to
his establishment and thus the health
is enfeebled, and even life is often sac
