before long. 1T is claimed that Gray
son county is filling up so rapidly that
before another decade no less than To-
OG0 inhabitants will be within her bor-
ders, and this number Is 200 unwieldly
for one county "a pump-handle could
not stand it to shake hands with all

Politics are at a stand-still. The
coming elections are but little dis
cussed. That horny-handed yeo-
man and toil-worn agriculturist,
who is at present our lieutenant

about. The opinion is freely express
ed that, like Mrs. Partington, every
time he opens his mouth he puts his
foot in it'll AS an expert woodsman
in the selection Of gubernatorial tim
Der, he is not a success.
The only fence trouble reported was
on 200 acre tract of land owned by
Messrs. Hall & Paddock, proprietors of
the Junction hotel. The land WAS
fenced Ia for q pasture, and AZ it had
previously been a commons, the action
was objected to by some unknown par
ties, who, having the fear of the stat
ute on fence cutting before their eyes,
attempted to carry their point without
eliminating themselves, and proceed
ed TO pull up several fence-posts, thus
opening gap for the cattle TO enter.

fame. fell with apoplexy, induced by a.
publication in behalf of jackson, deigned
to prejudice subscription arranged
in New York for Morton's benefit When the
people of Boston raised a monument in the
public gardens to commemorate this greatest
of medical discoveries, they inscribed it to
the unknown discoverer of an@sthetics. 1t
should have undoubtedly been dedicated to Dr.
the hazardous amusement of chemical lecture
rooms, and left it the sovereign anodyne OF
the human race in its moments and hours Of
agony-its stupor as safe and manageable as
the calm sleep that follows an ordinary opiate
Sir James Simpson, most eminent of Scotch
physicians followed Morton's discovery, in
1847 by the application of chloroform as an
anesthetic, and in 1868 Liebrich discovered
chloral, which breaks up into chloro-
form and formic acid in the blood.
Various anesthetcs are adapted to medical
use. Nitrous oxide, or laughing gas, is not east
ly portable and its effects are transitory.
Ether is preferred where an@sthesia of several
hours duration is required; chlorofOrm is be-
lieved by many to be safer and more speedy
than ether in its effects. Dr. Chisholm, of
Baltimore, has given chloroform in twelve
thousand cases without accident. But no an
aesthetic is absolutely safe, for an@sthesia is a
partial suspension of the vital functions; it is
in itself step toward death. That the pro-
fession of medicine has added perfectly safe
forum in the struggle against pain and dis
ease in the use of muriate of cocaine, is a
matter of congratulation to physicians and
possible patients alike.
