When the eminent surgeon, DIR. Agnew,
loft the distinguished White House patient
to go over to Philadelphia to look after an
impecunious sailor with a fractured skull,
the country probably thought he was
guilty of buncombe. But he only showed
his appreciation Of his great and sacred trust
as healer Of mankind. He had been en-
trusted with a human life, and profession.
ally and morally his obligation to the poor
and helpless sailor was as great as his Obli-
CATION to the President of the United States.
1t is this sort of devotion that makes the
physician the noblest of the professionals.
In one of Charles Levers stories design
ing woman, being called upon to explain
one of her peculiar sacrifices says:
"1f you were to call at the resi-
dence of Hanover Square physician at
night and tell him that if he would go to the
northeast corner of Regents Park no would
find guinea under stone he would slam
the door in your face and curse you for your
impertinence; but If you should awake the
same independent man out of his bed and
tell him that poor man was suffering with
collie in Chelsea he would rush to his side
feel his pulse, pocket fee Of guinea and
60 home satisfied. What an illustration
of the sense of duty that must actuate men
of oil professions! The advocate, no less
than the physician, must feel the same
obligation resting upon him. When n
lawyer undertakes to defend criminal on
trial for his life, he owes him as much skill
and service as though he were physician
fighting off his diseases. He accepts the
same sacred trust

TO the Editor Of The Erening Critic:
The municipal election yesterday re-.
suited in the election of Pendleton Bryan,
esq, for mayor, ovcr-J. p. Hyde The
WoodsOn brothers were elected as recorder
and assessor. The present council were re-
elected, except Eshman, who ran for treas
urer against Christie and was defeated. L..
III. OFT was elected councilman in his place.
The Readjustcrs declined nominating u
candidate for mayor, although Judge J. ID.
Price was urged for tho place. The cleo
tion of Bryan is q conceded victory for Gen.
John E. Roller over Judge Harris, both be-
ing aspirants for the gubernatorial nomi-
nation.
There is prospect of this place having
water-works in the near future. The Dia-
mond Drill Company, of Pennsylvania,

announcing that at $50 A. NJ, Mari,
Ronx, aged Is years, 5 months and 2;
days, had died at the residence of Mr.
NJ. Chambers. II the stranger VIII,
might pefehance have read one, nothing
more would have appeared than that
death had cut down a life in the bloom
of its youth.
Those acquainted with the pure and
fair victim and the story of her life, re-
ceived the sad tidings with very differ
ent emotions.
Marie RouX was the priceless jewel
whom the Great Ruler had bestowed
upon an humble family, whose pride
and hope she was. Nature seemed to
have delighted in imprintng beauty up-
on her graceful form. To this had been
added an inborn grace and modestv
which attracted the warm friendship of
all those who knew her.
Among these were the good sisters Of
st. Joseph, who had taken her under
their tenderest care. Under their beuev-
oient teachings, Marie had applied her
seff to study, and to acquire those chris
tlan virtues which transform woman
into an angel of the earth. At the close
OF the last session, she had graduated
with high honors, attracting thereby
the special attention OF the vast audi.
ence that witnessed the exercises
Her father and mother, with counte.
nauces radiant with indescribabIe han
plness, watched intently the phases of
her triumph. They seemed to feel that
God had rewarded them for their mis-.
fortunes and blessed them in the person
)f the sweet girl, who returned with
hem to their humble home, where. nm /
Ill six weeks ago, Hope and Happiness
iad taken their abode.
There came a day, then, when Marie
became i'll, while at the home of her

said that Col. Week and DIR. Fahnert

The doors of the fort weYe flung open

themselves in the breach as if they in

their med career by an,obstruction in
the shape of a long table covered with
the finest spread we have seen for many
day. All the Sumter people were OF

splendid dinner to each man. At last
when hunger was appeased, they called
on Jake to "set 'em up" While this was
being done the crowd took survey of
the saloon and saw a complete trans
formation:
The Hall had been newly hoored and
the wells and ceilings plastered and
whltened, in the handsomest style. by
