The physicians in one of the hospitals
of Vienna have made the remarkable dis
covery, in dissecting the body of one OF
their patients, that he had carried about in
his brain an iron nail covered with rust
that, to all appearances, must have held its
singular Judgment since early childhood
The man was forty-fve years of age, a
bookbinder, and always passed for tho
roughly intelligent person. The nail in
his brain did not seem to affect his mental
powers in any particular. There is prob
ably no case on record to parallel this.
