President this morning became ap.
parent to the surgeons yesterday
when they found that a drainage
tube of the sizs hitherto used could
not longer BIZ passed along the track
OF the ball between the ribs. The
process of granulatiOn at that point
had gone 30 far as to partially close
the Orifice and the ribs prevented
the pushing aside of the flesh
which Was healing between them
so that the tube could he intro
duced The result of this state of
things was that pus formed in the
deeper pars of the wound rather
faster than 1t could escape through
the half-obstructed openirg be-
tween the ribs, and its gradual ac-
cumulation began to cause dIsturb-
auce. 1t WAS therefore decid-
ed to make new opening
into the track OF the ball below
the last rib so tina; the ribs shou d
no longer prevent Keeping open
the wound by the solid backing
which then affnded to the granu.
lating flesh between them. The
operation was performed, at the
request of the other surgeons, by
DR.. Agnew. AS soon as the patient
had Deen put under the Influence
OF ether, long and slightly curv-
ed instrument was Introduce d into
the wound, pushed between the
ribs, aud carried downward along
the track of the bullet until it's
end could bs felt below the
last rib from the outside. Hold
ing this instrument in the
wound as a guide, DR.. Agrew
then made counter iDcision
below the twelfth rib, cutting dl-
rectly Through the integunent
until the knife met the eud of the
first mentioned instrument at it's
point where he WISHED to iutefs &c
the track Of the ball. The opera
tiOn was not difficult or danger
GUS one aud the patient bore both
1t and the etherization extremely
well. There is now un opening to
the deeper parts of the wound
which does not pass between the
ribs and which can always be kept
free and unobstructed, aud no
further trouble from accumulation
of pus 10 anticipated. Since the
operation the patient has rested
quietly and is now asleep. His

A Petition to the Gar.

The following telegram was sent from
Sofia to the Emperor of Russia one day
after the arrest of the Liberal leaders:
"YOur Majesty: Graciously forgive
us for addressing you by telegram. The
gravity of the moment compels us to do
so. The time is short; the knife is at
our throats. If you do not withhold it
we are lost Do not allow them to de-
prive us of the liberty conferred on us
by your august parent, the Gar Eman-
cipatOr. We are already half slaves.
Yesterday the four best patriots of our
country were deprived of their liberty
in an illegal manner. You fought per-
sonally for us. Could you bear to see
us again slaves? Our best men have
been libeled. We refute this libel.
Your Majesty, these words are our own.
Nobody is telling us what to say-we
are prompted by our own hearts. Be-
lieve US, our minds are not obscured.
For five hundred years we were slaves.
Your august parent wrested our liberty
for us by force of arms. The liberty
that he conferred upon us we will prize
as our lives. We beseech you to com.
mand that our patriots be liberated.
Give but one order-that your subjects
should not aid in trampling on our ma.
tional rights given us by your august
parent. Without the aid of your sub,
iects no one will make us slaves. Oul
priceless national privilege-free cleo
tion-is being trampled under foot

renounce liberty can not be in accord

The Pleasure OF Living Near Volcano.

Wereceived Yesterday morning alarm
ing news from Hilo as to the advance of
the lava. 1t is most certain that one or
more of the streams into which the flow
is divided will push forward to the sea,
doing great mischief, even if it does not
overwhelm the town of Hilo. The flow
which was nearest to the Waiakea plan
tation homestead broke out suddenly,
while Messrs. Kennedy and Charles
Richardson were inspecting it on Sun
day, the Goth ult. A stream of lava,
liquid as water, and glowing with
white heat, broke from the face of the
flow and ran down a narrow and tor
tuous gulch, nearly mile in length,
making such speed that the visitors had
to make haste to avoid it. At the foot
of the gulch is hollow which often fills
up with water, making a lagoon. This
is now being filled with lava, and has
checked the onward flow which had
threatened the mill and other buildings
at Waiakea in such manner as to lead
the manager to remove all portable
stores, and to take measures to be in
readiness to remove the plant itself to
place of safety
Toward the end of the week, how
ever, the supply of lava seems to have
slackened somewhat, and hopes are en-
tertained that if the fiat now being over
flowed should be filled up the stream
may pass forward to the sea without
destroying the mill. There are two out
lets for it. One of these is by a gulch a
little more than half a mile on the Puma
side of Hilo-by this route the lava
would pass comparatively harmlessly to
the sea by way Of the course of the Wa
iolama stream. The other is a shallow
gulch known as Kuhuao, and lies nearer
to Waiakea, and there is much reason to
fear that if this channel is taken by the
lava, it will quickly fill up the gulch and
overflow the level ground, and destroy
the plantation buildings. The fields Of
growing cane are not threatened, the
lava being now past them and at level
considerably below them. Crushing is
being carried on with the utmost vigor
in order to get as much work as possible
done beforehand in case of untoward re-
suits to the mill.
The natives have cleared out their
habitations in the neighborhood, and
are also leaving Hilo. The town itself
10 not menaced by the flow just de-
scribed, but there is another one which,
if it breaks out in a similar manner,
must overwhelm large part of the town,
its course being directly for the main
street. -HOnoIulu Commercial advertiser

ror."
Another man, who had once been UNI
der Christian teachings, but who refused
to be guided by them after he got away
from their influence, said, referring to
the means Of living in tramp quarters:
ave manage it in various ways. We
put up q job on some minister or gener-
GUS Christian, and by the good talking
of some one of our number get a little
money or some good clothes These we
turn into money. The religious women
are easier to beat than any other. We
win their sympathies by professions of
religion, and most always get aid to
visit our homes in some far-off locality.
Then some of our number work tempo
rarily. They spend their money in
treating, and thus one helps the other"
But these men deceive no one, it is
said, although they think they are not
read through and through by those who
try to reform them. The Rev. DR..
Tying, before his departure for Europe,
was in the habit on winter mornings of
giving a hot breakfast to the outcast,
bringing them in from the highways.
One morning he fed several hundred to
a good nourishing breakfast. Knowing
that all of them would readily assert that
they desired to give up drink, reform, and
become Christian men, he said to them :
"There are many of you this morning
doubtless saying in your minds, What
soft thing we have got on DR.. Tying.
We will all 60 up and beat him out of a
hot breakfast, and he is welcome to
keep his religion Now | am satisfied
that if can only save one man out of
this large number present here this
morning the object of this entertainment
has been secured. "-New York Sun.

Cruelty to Fish.

Talking with gentleman of eighty
four years, a few days ago-a man of
great experience in practical life, and
withal one of humane instincts and
principles, we gathered many interest
ing suggestions and ideas, that would be
worth repeating. Among other things,
he referred to lifelong practice he had
always observed. In catching fish, he
never failed to kill them Immediately
upon drawing them out of the water,
which is their natural element. Every
boy knows this fact, yet hardly one in
hundred stops to think that a living fish,
deprived of the peculiar means of respi-
ration that the water furnishes, must
suffer similarly to human being cut off
from its usual supply of atmospheric air.
Death by suffocation is regarded as ter
rible, and fish out of water, being de-
prived of the oxygen that sustains its
blood, doubtless suffers intensely. 1t is
the easiest thing to kill fish, either by
striking it slight blow upon the head,
or by cutting its throat. 1t is well
known that the flesh of animals wounded
and left to die, is unfit for food, and ex-
perienced fishermen say that fish
should be killed Immediately on being
caught, in order to render it fit for the
table. But aside from the question of
food, the subject should be considered
as one of principle. We know by the
fierce struggles of the captive fish it is in
severe pain, and humanity dictates that
it should be speedily put out of misery.
We have no right to inflict needless suf-
fering upon any creature, axd the tor
ture Of fish is quite as bad as the tor
ture of dog or horse. Nearly every
day during the fishing season may be
observed boys carrying large strings of
fish through the streets, the movements
of which show that they are alive and
in great pain and misery. In most cases
this is the result of thoughtlessness or
ignorance. Most boys would dislike to
be thought cruel, andoif they were in
Structed by their parents and others on
Sthis S6bject, would probably follow the
rule of humanity in the treatment OF
fishes, as they DO in the care of domestic
animalsS We trust our young friends
VINO read this article will not only follow
these suggestions themselves, but will
try to induce their companions to do

A Chicken Runs Away with a Lady's
Finger.

Last Tuesday curious accident hap.
pened to Mrs. S. X. Smith at the Sisters,
or st. Nincent's farm, near Laclede.
She was at the barn with her little child
when by some means a garden hoe,
which had been lately sharpened and
was hanging on q peg in the wall, be-
came dislodged and was about to fall
on the child; Mrs. Smith, seeing the
danger, warded off the hoe, which struck
her on the forelinger of the right hand,
completely severing it at the first joint.
The dism.smbered portion, falling to the
ground, was at once picked up by a
chicken, and both chicken and finger.

The City Farmer.

When formerly a city man who had
made his "pile," and, as he drove
through the country and became fas-
cnated with the beauty of the growing
crops and things in general, would make
up his mind to try his hand at so pleas
ant business his actions were care
fully watched by the old farmers and
his many biunders laughed at. He was
not satisfied to have things after the
fashion of the general farmer, ne must
have them all much nicer and better,
and then he couldn't help but succeed.
He bought imported cattle, sheep, swine,
chickens and what not, the finest and
most expensive implements and farm
machinery. some of which had scarcely
been read of by agriculturists generally.
He hauled his manure from the city by
scores of loads; guano was applied pro-
fusely and everything done on scale
that threw all his neighbors entirely in
the shade. When they protested against
a great deal of this useless expenditure
and waste of labor he would reply that
he had his own ideas about matters and
things, and as he thought they were an
improvement on the old fogyisms of the
day, he would try what he could do,
having no doubt of his entire success,
and others would he glad to follow him !;
but no success followed, at least, not in
the shape or to the extent expected.
The next year was still less satisfactory,
as several of his fine cattle died from
overlooking. The following year the fly
got into his wheat so as to leave not
more than one stalk standing where
there ought to be twenty. The worms
destroyed his apples. His potatoes rot
ted. Some rowing, worthless dogs killed
or mangled twenty of his Southdown
sheep in single night. The lightning
burnt down his barn. Hence, at the end
of five years he found that there was
neither pleasure nor profit in farming
in fact, he was quite sure of it. His fam.
lily complained, too, of being away from
the city, from their friends, from par.
ties, operas and theaters, and were ter.
ribly tired, anyhow, of the country,
Papa, therefore, backed by his family,
who had come out with such eagerneSs
