That born idiot can be cured looks
reasonable, after an operation per-
formed at New York short time ago.
The cause of idiocy is that children
are born with q small cranial cavity
and perfectly hardened skull, 80 the
the brain has no chance to grow. The
average child is born with six soft
spots in it's skull, which doctors call
fontanels. The object Of these is to
give the brain a chance to expand.
DR.. Lannelogue thought that if part
Of the skull should be removed in an
idiotic child, the brain could expand
and cure be effected. Accordingly
an idiot child in the juvenile asylum
at Mount Vernon was operated upon,
a section of skull being removed. Al
ready marked Improvement is no
ticeable in the child, and it is expect
ed that time viii complete the cure.

A NOTABLE ANNIVERSARY.

Thirty one years ago the 18th inst,
the first gun of our civil was was fired
against the starving garrison of Fort
Sumter, and the echoes of that year
have been heard and are yet to be
heard in every nation on the globe.
The first shell from the guns Of the
mortar batteries near Fort Johnson
sounded the death kneH of slavery,
although fired in it's defense.
At 2 D. M of the 18th of April, 1861,
Gen. Beauregard, commanding the
confederate forces at Charleston, de-
manded the surrender of Maj. Ander-
son and his gallant and half-fed little
garrison, offering to remove the troops
with arms and private property and
permit them to salute their flag as
they hauled it down from Sumter, but
every officer in the fort seconded An
derson in his positive refusal. At II
D. M. of the same day Beauregard
proposed that Anderson should fix the
time when he would evacuate Sumter,
to which he replied that if not other
piled by the government, he would
evacuate Sumter at noon on the 10Th.
The response to this reply of Ander-
sons came at 1920 on the morning of
April II, 1861, informing him that
Beauregard's batteries would be open
on the fort in one hour. In one hour
and ten minutes thereafter the
fatal gun was fired that summoned
nearly 100000 people to engage in
the greatest war of modern times.
Thirty one years have passed, but
the work done by the soldiers of the
North still ives-lives a blessing to
the human race. Slavery has been
abolished in every civilization in the
world, and a generation of unexam-
pied progress in industry, in COM
merce, in trade, in science and in ev-
erything that ennobles man, has tes-
titled to the echoes of the first gun
fired against Sumter. -RutJard Herald.
