LES MISERABLES.

When | was little boy-twelve or fifteen
years ago-a kind relative who had charge of
the medical department of Marine Hospital
in one of the New England States used to
sometimes lead me by the hand through the
wards of that institution. 1t came to my
knowledge during these ramble5 that there
we're certain old sailors who hung about the
place with a pcrtinacity which suggested a
suspicion of their unreadiness to embark upon
the raging main and renew their maritime oc
equations. The hospital authorities termed
these hangers on "sojers 1t was standing
Joke to administer brisk emetic to one of
this sort, or, possibly, treat his back to a
smart pOultice of mustard. 1t is to be said
that under such ministrations the "soiers"
showed a surprising tendency to convalescence
and corresponding alacrity to resume their
sea-going duties. | think [ have detected,
here and there, ''soier' among my fellow
hospitallers There is a certain generic lugu-
briousness about ''sojer which
is readily recognized There is a
labored effort to preserve the old
imp and even to magnify it that is very
characteristic. Furtive glancings of the eye
to see ii their distresses are duly observed,
these are to be noted among the more marked
symptoms. Self-pity and stout appetite for
sympathy are among the phenomena devel-
oped in the "soger' who is of both the
sexes. There is a considerable basis of dry
rot under these peculiarities Folks whose
ambition has gone to seed; tired and faded
men and women whose lives have been
weary, profitless struggle; poor, unfortunates
who are homeless and friendless, these do not
like to leave the bed and beard and shelter of
the in6rmary. And why should they? Sup
pose they do sham little pain and exagger-
ate their woes; who shall blame them! Do
