SAYINGS AND DOINGS OF SYDNEY
SMITH.

sydney Smith net unnaturally pre-
ferred conversation to music, but at a
musical party one evening, as he was
stealing on tip-toe from the cOncert-room,
| held up my finger at him, when he
whispered: 'My dear, it's all right You
keep with the dilettanti; | go with the
talketanti." Afterwards on my expostu-
lating with him, and telling him that by
such habits he was running risk of be-
ing called to order on some future eternal
day with, "Angel Sydney Smith, hush!''
if he did not learn to endure music bet
ter, he replied, "Ob, no, no! "Pm cul-
tivating judicious second expressly for
those occasions" OF his lamentations
for the flashes of silence" which, he said
at one time, made Macauley's intercourse
possible, one has heard; but when he
was so i'll that all his friends were full of
anxiety about him, NJ having called
to see him, and affectiOnately asked what
sort of night he had passed, Sydney
Smith replied, "Oh, horrid, horrid my
dear fellow! | dreamt | was chained to
a rock and being talked to death by Har-
riet Martineau and Macaulay." One
evening at my fathers house, the cheap
ess OF living abroad and in England
having been aiscu ,sed, Sydney Smith de-
clared that for his part, he had never
found foreign quarters so much more rea-
sonable than home ones, or foreign hotels
less exorbitant in their charges 81

Mr. Rogers gave US many amusing de
tails of various visits he paid him at his
plac' IN Somersetshire, Combe Flory
where, on one occasion, Jeffrey was alsC
one Of the party. 1t was to do honor tC
these illustrious guests that Sydney
Smith had pair of horns fastened on his
donkey, who was turned into the paddock
so adorned, in order, as he said, to give
the place a more noble and park-like ap
pearance; and it was on this same don
key that Jeffrey mounted when Sydney
Smith exclaimed with such glee-
''As short, but not as stout as Bacchus,
As witty as HOratius Flaccus,
AS greats q radical as Gracious,
There he goes riding on my jackuss."

BOYS AND GIRLS.

Why do more boys die than girls? For
every hundred girls born into the world
there are one hundred and four boys, and
ii used TO be imagined that the extra
four bays were supplied in order to meet
the extra wear and tear of life which
must be borne by the bread winners of
the world. But the odd thing to which
DR.. Biddle calls attention in a medical
contemporary is that the extra four per
cent. OF boys is wiped out by death be-
fore they attain the age of years. Why
is thisY DR.. Biddle makes two sugges-
tions-first, that the greater "waste" of
boys may be due to their higher organ
ism; and, secondly, that it may be "due
to the fact that our little boys are given
over to the tender mercies of mothers and
maids instead of being reared by those
who understand them" 'Those who
understand them would seem to refer to
persons of their own sex, SO that DIR.
Biddle would seem to look with favor up
on the appointment of male nurses for
male infants. The non-medical observer
would be inclined to accept heavy odds
that, if DR.. Biddle's suggestions were
acted upon; the 'waste" of the higher
organism, instead of being reduced, would
increase at a very alarming ratio indeed

4 WARNING TO DENTISTS.-It has
been abundantly demonstrated that op-
erations in the domain of the fifth nerve,
under chlorOform carcosis, are peculiarly
dangerous. The reason is obvious. The
nucleus of the fifth and the nucleus of
the pneumogastric lie in close juxtaposi-
ton, and intimate reflex relations, if not
direct commissural connections, subsist
between them. The impressions made
on the end organ of the fifth, in tooth
extraction, exert a powerful stimulant ei-
feet on the inhibitive fuAction of the
pneumogastric. Such is the mechanism.
1t is readily illustrated on a rabbit. IF
placed in a Czermak's holder, and a
needle, having a paper flag attached to
its outer extremity, is thrust through the
walls of the chest into the muscular sub
stance of the rabbits heart. the move
ments of the paper flag will indicate the
hearts movements. ChlorOform yapor
must be very cautiously administered,
and when insensibility is induced, and
any irritation, as drawing tooth, is sud-
denly applied to the jaw, the heart is i'm
mediately stopped. The danger of tooth
drawing under chloroform anaesthesia
being so pronounced and so readily ex-
planned, we hold that no physician is JUS
titled in encountering such risks.-PhlI-
adeZphi0 Medical Ne1os.

A SNAKE SHOT FROM GUN.-Cos-
mus Eckenrode, who lives on the Blue
Mountains, near the line of the Berks
and Schuykill, was out hunting on Mon
day last. As he was crossing small
clearing he laid down his gun for while
to gather some Blue Mountain tea. Short
ly after ne picked it up again, and was
startled to hear very close to his ear the
peculiar whirring which is the signal of
the proximity of rattlesnake. He look
ed hastily around, but could discover
nothing, when suddenly he discovered
the tail of the snake protruding from the
muzzle of his gun. He dropped the gun
quickly, but instead uf coming out his
snakeship crawled into the barrel again.
After fruitless efforts to dislodge him Mr..
Eckenrode resolved to fire the gun, which
was loaded with powder and shot, This
plan was very successful, and the snake,
after taking trip in the air, came down
in shreds, badly used up.-NiJord DIS

A MEDICAL JOURNAL ON GAR
FIELDS MEDICAL EXPENSES.

The Medical News, published in Phil
adelphia, thinks it matter of honor
that the bills presented by the physicians
who attended President Garfield after his
assassination should be paid by Congress
without demur. The amount to which
the bills have been scaled by the board of
audit is, in the opinion of the News, "to-
tally inadequate to the services rendered"
In the first place Congress deemed $685.
900 too much, and, "atter wrangling over
the subject all winter" finally decided to
give to board of audit the sum of $685.
600 with which to settle these accounts.
Now the board, after receiving the bills,
"has scaled them down to $500, and,
as if to still further depreciate the SER
vices of the surgeons, they have awarded
$1,000 to Drs. Boynton and Edison, who
were employed in the case solely as
nurses With reference to the mode in
which Drs. Agnew and Hamilton fixed
upon the value of their services, it is
stated that these gentlemen Calculated at
the rate at which they were ordinarily
paid by well-to-do patients for services
rendered out of the city and requiring
the same amount of time" The News
seems net to admire the feeling which led
Congress to estimate the value of their
services in connection with the result of
the case. Had the result been different,
the bills at first rendered would, from
the point of view of the average Congress-
man, have been altogether reasonable.

BEER GLASSES IN BERLIN.-Th large
breweries that surround Berlin sell con-
siderable quantity of beer on draught,
each brewery being provided with large
garden or saloon, not unlike Lion Park,
New York City. On Sundays and holi-
days a great concourse OF people, many
Of them whole families, assemble there
to quaf the national beverage fresh from
rock cellars OF course it requires IL
large number Of beer glasses (SeideD to
supply them. The Moabit Brewery uses
II 900 glasses; an export brewery there,
22,500; the Union, Friedrichshain, New
World and Spandauer Book, each use
10000, while 10000 are used in the
"Zelton." Beer is also sold at the ZOO
logical garden, where $4,000 Seidel are
in use. About 10000 more are in use at
the large breweries Oh the south side of
Berlin, where the Tivoli, Society, Hasen-
haide, and Book breweries are situated.
This total of nearly 100000 glasses does
not include smaller establishments like
Belle, Alliance, Walhalla, and hundreds
of other gardens, hence the total number
used annually is estimated, says the
Amerikanischer Bierbrauer, at 5000, 900,
or four glasses to each man, woman and
child WHAT may seem more surprising
to our readers is that 10 per cent. Of the
glasses used in Berlin are imported from
this country, mostly from Wheeling, W.
V. Many of the other glasses are ''im-
itation American" and come from Schle-
sia, the rest from the Rhein. About one.
third of the whole number pass, through
the hands of a single house in Berlin.

THE MORGAN MYsTERY.-Maj. Ben.
Perley Poore, the Washington correspon-
dent of The Boston Journal, speaking of
Thurlow Weeds alleged exposure of the
Morgan mystery, says: Careful of his
reputation, it was not strange that Mr..
Weed, as the end Of his eventful life ap-
preached, desired to remove the stigma
that be had been prominently concerned
in extracting a front tooth from the body
of drowned Irishman and of saying de-
family that "he'Il make a good enough
Morgan until after election" His state.
ments about the taking off Of Morgan,
which are all hearsay, were doubtless be-
lisved by him, but they are not evidence.
When in Smyrna some forty years ago L
gathered a good deal of information about
"a mysterious American who had come
there soon after the Morgan excite
ment. He received quarterly remittances
and finally died there. Were | disposed
to give heresaY statements | that | could
show that the mysterious stranger was
Morgan, who was paid literally by the
anti. Masons to absent himself, but who
koped after some years had elapsed to re-
turn to the State of New York. But |
cannot prove the statement, and my own
oath would not make my statements OF

in a Dublin restaurant. Then he sent
for glass of brandy and glass ofGuin-
ness Xxx beer and put an oyster in each.
In very short time there lay in the bot
tom of the glass of brandy tough, leath-
cry substance, resembling the finger of

hardly trace of the oyster to be found.

ARCHBISHOP PURCELL AND THURLOw

ARCHBISHOP PURCELL AND THURLOw
WEED.-The recent death of Thurlow
Weed, the great political manager of
New York, recalls an incident in his life
which illustrates the manly and tender
strength of his feelings of friendship.
Forty-three years ago the venerable Arch
bishop and Mr.. Weed crossed the Allan
tic Ocean together. Landing at Queens
town the Archbishop plucked rose and
presented it to his tellow-traveler with
hearty welcome to the land of his fathers
The Archbishop little thought that this
simple, triaing expression of kindness
would be remembered nearly half cen
tury. But it was. When the Archbish-
op was in New York in 1879, he paid a
visit to the aged politician. Calling up
memories of bygone days, Mr. Weed sent
for book in his library. Opening its
leaves, he gave back to the Archbishop
the pressed and faded leaves of the flower
that had been the symbol ofgreeting on
the shore of Ireland, The perfume of
the dead rose had long departed, but the
sweeter fragrance of true, living friend
ship clung to it through all those many
years CdtboHc Telegraph.
