A GIRLS JAW DISLOCATED,

The Janesville (Wis.) Gazette con-
tains the following: cover TWO months
ago a young lady at Monroe went to a
dental office TO get tooth extracted,
and during the operation the lower
Jaw was disocated. The misfortune
prevented her from either speaking
or eating any solid food, and besides
it was the cause OF intense pain. Ply
sicians were summoned, but tor some
time none knew The true nature of the
case, After several weeks had passed,
one Of the physicians OF Monroe gave it
as his opinion that the jaw was dislo-
Gated. Upon this discovery, a council
of physicians was called, ami the best
means OF resetting the Jaw was dis
cussed. 1t was decided to put the un-
fortunate young lady under the influence
of an8stheJics, anu make an
attempt to repair the injury.
This failed, and second at.
tempt was made, which likewise failed.
AS a last resort physician from this
city was called, and on Wednesday
evening he went to Monroe to examine
the patient, and once more concluded to
administer anasthetics, and make Q
third tlial to reset the jaw. 1t had been
dislocated for sixty-three days, and con.
| seauently he worked under what might
be- considered discouraging circum.
stances. In three minutes after the
| an@ sthetics were administered the Jaw
was put in its place without serioul
dihcu!tyY

upea as an act OF special heroism OF re-
Mgious devotion, We can probably con-
slider suicide as an Institution peculiar
to civilization.
savages very seldom resort to it in
grief or sickness, and they are not
driven to it by the reverses of hard times
or threats Of poverty. Many of them
treat death with heroic frmness or a
stole Indifference when it is inevitable,
but they do not seek for it as something
to be desired.
In this country the depre ssion in busi-
ness for the last few years, the lack Of
employment, and gloomy apprehensions
for the future have furnished excuses
for an alarming number Of suicides,
while many more have sought relief in
death from the tortures OF disease or the
horrors of intemperance.
In addition to these, however, there
have been some most extraordinary
cases, wherein the provocation to sui.
eide seemed to be of very trivial ma.
ture. Only rev days since young
man in one of our Eastern cities retired
to his room and shot himself, merely be.
cause a pickpocket had relieved him oi
his watch. Not long ago an English
gentleman resorted to selt.destuction
| offering the novel excuse that his wife
was "altogether too good for him." A
school-boy in Brooklyn dozed himsel
throughly on arseric because The
little maid Of his affection declined
to answer his love letters, and Rus
Sian Prince shot himself few weeks
ago in St. Petersburg apparently fol
no earthly reason except that h'
wanted change. Suicides we shal
probably have always, or until tina
time when "the earth shall blossom al
a rose" and the sea of lite shall become
so smooth and placid that no man shal
longer seek refuge from her storms il

OUR men OF great wealth are pecu-
liarly unfortunate In the selection OF

every instance they choose a period
when they are of uusound mind and
totally incapable of disposing of their

work of their lives to accumulate. II

SLICIDES.

Suicides have been designated as cow
ards, and 1t is undoubtedly true that in
nearly every case they have been i'm
PEELED to their crime by the belief that
in shuffling off this mortal coil they were
at the same time escaping from the trou-
bles and torments of life which could not
be augmented by death. This might be
termed cowardice, but strictly speaking,
it is question if he who refrains from
suicide only because he fears to take
the chances of that undiscovered coun-
try is not as great coward. In other
words, the rational suicide, ii any such
there be, is the man who fears life and
fees from it, while most of his fellows
fear death and avert it with every effort
Which shall we say is the cowardi
The question of suicide is one that b has
demanded the attention of society since
that remote time when Judas Iscarlol
sought refuge from q guilty conscience
In selEdestruction. But while suicide
has been regarded as a crime, 1t is one
in which the criminal has always sue
cessfully placed himself beyond the
reach Of earthly punishment, and exhib
itsd a sovereign contempt for all human
laws, ....

HThe Conflict of Ages.

Men differ on nearly every issue. There have
always been opposite parties IN politics and
day may he universally adopted at another,
and those sacrificed regarded as heroes and
martyrs. Medicine has also been subject to
revolutionary disturbances. When Drs. Har-
vey and Jenner announced their discoveries,
they were held in contempt anu lidicuie by an
incredulous and ignorant public, yet to-day
they are received and honored by all as pene-
factors. When DIR. Pierce announce his Dis
covery, many seemed to doubt, and were skep-
tical concerning all medicines ana doctors,
but proof of merit has dispelled all doubt, and
to-day the Golden Medical Discovery is the
standard remedy IN curing the most obstinate
diseases Of the liver and blood, having almost
entirely superseded the old time sassaparIllas
by reason Of It's superior merits.

groes in Crawford, Oglethorp County.
A preacher, Luke Johnson, has been
gathering the negroes of the neighbor-
hood toge her Elm secret meetings every
night for the past month.
The whites determined to discover the
character of these meetings. Monday
night the Marshal OF Lexington, with a
posse of IN N, marched 10 the meeting
place. A large crowd of armed negroes
rushed out and fired an effective volley
into the ranks OF the whites. e..
Two OF these were wounded, the Mar.
shal, MIR. Morris, being shot seriously
in the breast and hands. Several OF the
negroes were arrested and thro wn into
