Medical SeIf-Sacrf1ce.

From the LonQOn AanC6Gj
 The principle on which thepractice of vivi- section iustifably rests is briefly this-that even as a man, the ruler of creation, has right to take the life of the lower animals for his sustenance, so he may rightly make use of their suffering to discover means of reliev- ing his pain and that of other living crea- lures. Many scientific medical men have gone beyond this, and have offered in themselves examples of pain frankly under gone for the purpose of establishing truths in treatment or of assuring the recovery of the sick in their charge. It is of this aspect of the question that we wish to speak Take the latest example A student of medicine in France has offered himself as subject for inoculation by M> Pasteur with the modified virus of hydrophohia, with view of testing the protective efficacy of such inoculation. It should be remembered that M Pasteur, before resorting to this experiment on the human subject, has satisfied himself of it's freedom from serious risk and of the immunity it con- fers on dogs. The memory of another exam pie is yet recent in which medical inspector of the local Government Board, with equal disregard to personal consequences, vaccina- ted himself with lymph notoriously diseased in order to prove or disprove the truth of the theory that the poison of syphilis can be thus transferred The founder of this surgical application of chloroform WAS himself the first person exposed to it's influence. He was, moreover one by no means assured in health as to dread no danger in the trial. Ex- amples of similar self-devotion might be null tip1ied Probably the surgeons now alive who have cleared patients wind-pipe in tracheotomy by sucking out the diphtheritic membrane could not be counted on the fin gers We can, on the other hand, recall 8 foolish prosecution of two medical men by 8 father who demurred to being asked to per form this office for his dying child, not then shortly consider the quality of mind on which depends the merit of such courage as we have recorded. There is always something noble in self-sacrifee; there is more of truth than of falsehood in those natures which can sub init to it. It is only just to admit that there are degrees in such nobility of action. Not seldom it has been marred by the want of due necessity for it, by reckless indiseretfon in it's application, or by drawing it's tnspira- tion from 8 high but blind enthusiasm allied to pride, not deeply rooted in principle, and of short continuance In quite another spirit does he proceed who endangers the well being or his life to bring about salutary end, hay ing exhausted all other means and found them fruitless, who gives his health or life, while he still reioices in them, because he IS persuaded by conscience, and not pt1ed up by pride, into the belief that the pfactfcal gain thereby for him and others shaH be greater than his loss This form of seit-sac- rifice alone is truly wise and heroic self- denial.

An Indiana dealer in clothing secured 8 large glass globe, filled it with beans and put it on exhibition in his shop window. He then announced that any person who would buy goods to the amount of fifty cents or
 more from him would receive ticket Zen
 titing the holder to one guess at the number of beans in the globe," and that whoever
 guessed the nearest was to get the prize
 watch. For this scheme the man was in dicted under the lottery law. The case was carried to the Supreme court of the State, and was decided against the defendant. It was argued in his behalf that to find out the correct number of beans in the glass globe was not matter of chance, but of mathe- nautical calculation. But the court said: An expert mathematician might compute the dimensions of the glass globe with reasona- ble degree of certainty. Necessarily, the re- suit would be but approximately correct. To be mathematically correct the exact thick ness of the glass would have to be known. This exactness could not be ascertained by an observation of the sealed globe. Here would necessarily be an element of guessing And if the exact size of the globe were known it would be utterly impossible by the appI- cation of mathematical rules or by any other means to calculate the number of beans con- tained in it. The size of the several beans, so far as they could be observed, would be 8 matter of pure guessing. And besides, only those on the surface and next to the glass could be seen. Those in the center might be larger or smaller. In short, there could be no fixed and definite fact or quantity upon which to base mathematical calculation or demonstration. The number of beans in the globe could be nothing less than matter of guessing

instructed unanimously for the chair

for Savers. There was a unanimous
vote to support Dwyer for permanent
chairman, if presented by the BeXar

to cast his vote for the former, having
signifed his intention TO support Rec

of their own soil Humane. nav.
humtle as was the first object OF the
: Land League, it was suppressed
bv force because the English govern
ment feared that from the brow of
its humanity would spring the spirit
of liberty. The Irish national league,
whose distinct and avowed purpose
/ is the establishment of the sovereignty
of the Irish people in Ireland, is the
| embodiment of that spirit of liberty.
1t cannot be suppressed, for its Spirit
IS immortal. 1t is beyond the scope
of coercion acts, for its life is as end
less as the life of race, The sham
rock, on its banner, tear-bedewed in
its native bed, is the symbol of the
glorious union of that race in three
homes; separated by the seas that
divide continents, united by the deter
animation of a race to achieve the in
dependence of nation"
The enthusiasm during the delivery
OF the chairman's address was un-
bounded. The applause began almost
at the Grst paragraph of his address,
and the speaker was compelled, several
times, to await the subsistence of the
tumult and enthusiasm before he
could continue. When he referred to
the work of the national league of
ireland, the convention, rose, en- masse,
and cheered, which was repeated
when the chairman accused the Eng
lish government of bringing famine
upon Ireland. When the speaker al
luded to the Irish banner, and the
of Irish independence, he
was greeted with tremendous APP
plause and long time elapsed before
quiet was restored. at other points
in the address the scene was repeated. |
