A Remarkable Operation.

Some months ago practicing physi-
clan in the upper part Of New York
state was thrown from his carriage ane
struck upon the left side of his head
He was able with some assistance TO gee
home, and soon noticed an entire inab1-
ity to articulate, though still perfectly
conscious.
His mind, in fact, was so clear that
he motioned to his wife to get book of
medicines from his shelves, and POINTED
out to her a chapter on cerebral hemor-
rhage, thus making the diagnosis of his
own case. He was put in bed, and by
morning had become unable to use the
whole right side of his body.
This partial paralysis, or hemiplegia,
gradually improved under treatment, so
that he was again able to be up and to
some extent hobble about.
After time, finding his improvement
at standstill, he went to New York
city to see if anything bould be done for
his relief.
In one of the greatest hospitals there
he was operated upon by one of the
most skillful surgeons Round pieces
were trephined from the bone of the
skull at the point where, from accurate
calculations, it was estimated that the
trouble would be found. A clot was
found where it had been looked for.
This was removed as thoroughly as pos
sible, and the wound quickly healed.
When last seen by the writer the pa
tient was walking, still with the aid Of
a cane, in the hospital wards, and had
begun to speak some letters and words
which had been taught him by his
wife.
The injury had destroyed his ability
to make the motions of the lips and
muscles necessary to articulation, and
when he had recovered the ability to ar.
ticulste il was necessary for him 70
learn to talk just as child does, or as
one learns a foreign language, though
he still retained the power Of under.
standing all that was said to him.

Death of an Eccentric American.


Harry Livingston, the descendant OF
the illustrious American statesman,
whose death has just been announced,
had lived in Florence thirty years. He
was universally nicknamed FL Ameri-
cano. Though very eccentric, he was a
general favorite. His chief amusement
was driving six, eight, ten and even
eighteen horses to his carriage. Finally
the municipal authorities, fearing acct
dents in the streets, forbade him to
drive more than six horses.
After this he drove out with a skin
hand, surrounded by servants, each
driving the same kind Of rig. The mat.
ter got to be such a nuisance that COM
promise was arranged, the authorities
allowing Livingston to drive as many
horses as he pleased himself if he would
call off the servants. Another peculiar
ity of Livingstons was that he insisted
upon the good old practice Of kissing as
well as applauding in theater.
This brought him into occasional
trouble with his fellow auditors, who
held different views of the proprieties
But ON the whole he was well liked,
chiefly on account Of his undoubted
goodness of heart. his charities being
many and well distributed. Rome

What Was the Com paniOn Pieoep

Those beautiful portraits which orna-
mented the front of the stage at the
late Democratic county convention and
which so delighted the soul of Chair
man McCord, were irreverently de-
clared to be the likenesses of John l..
Sullivan and "Parson" Davies. The
Republicans present accept the picture
with the plug hat as a most excellent
likeness of Mr.. Cleveland, and suggest
its duplication in quantities for cam
paign specimens of Democratic high
art, but express no opinion upon the
fearfully and wonderfully made com
panion piece. What a relief it would
have been, to settle all doubts, if the
artist had only labeled it.-Nooksack

A BILL has been introduced into the
Legislature of Ohio to encourage the pro-
duclion of beet-sugar in that State by a
bounty of wo-thrds Of cent per pound on
all sugar produced in the State TO the farmer
who raises the beets, and one-tbrd of cent
a pound to the manufacturer. This, with
the Government bounty, ought to develop
the production of very large proportion of
the sugar which our people require. Ohio
has great deal of land especially adapted
to the raising of sugar-beets, particularly
that lying in the neighborhood of Lake Erie,
and with proper encouragement the industry
could be made great addition to the wealth
of the State.

n1oEE pEHyEEsIoN oF HISTORY.


Gen. Joe Wheeler, who attained much
notoriety during the war as the Lieutenant
General in command of all the rebel cavalry
attached to Bragg's army, is now Repre-
sentative from Alabama In debate III
the House last week he made this astonlsh-
ing statement
There has been a great deal said about which
States deserve the most credit for putting most
soldiers in the military service during the war
and | will inform this House that the States which
gave the most soldiers were the Southern States.
1 want TO state this fact, because some people
question its accuracy. The Southern States iur-
nished the Federal army more soldiers thah they
furnished to the Confederate army. They iuf-
nished 39 600 white men, in white regiments or
ganized in Southern States.
They furnished 225,oG0 coored soldiers; ana
then, by means of bounties regarding which mueh
has been said, number of men estimated at w.
Geo. and estimate it higher than that ana shat
is estimated in large degree from the records OF
places OF BIRTH and from these records is assumed
that more than 100 600 Southern men enlisted IN
Northern regiments from Southern States. ihese
three items added together show = greater oooy Oh
men from the Southern States in The Federal army
than were furnished to the Confederate army.
Mr.. Wheeler went on to explain that IN
Southern States" he included Dela-
ware, Maryland, the District of Columbia,
Kentucky and Missouri. It is the old jug
gle with facts and figures. When they talk
about how many men they had with which
to fight the Union army they exclude all
help received from the Border States, but
when it is necessary to make another KIND
of showing then the Border States are
part and parcel Of rebeldom.
When Mr. Wheeler says that the Southern
States furnished the Union army more men
than there were in the Confederate army,
he deliberately contradicts the records Let
us reiterate some facts that we have before
furnished:
/. The Census of 1860 showed that the
number of enlisted men in IL seeding
States, between the ages of Is and 80. was
100000.
q In the Border States there were of the
same class 521 900 men.
3. There came of military age, in the Sc
ceding States between 1860 and 1865, 100000
white men, and in the Border States 260,00O
men.
| 4. Fully 100000 white men over so were
made to do military duty in the rebel army.
s. We have thus total Of ,951, 900 white
men capable of bearing arms, from which
| the rebels could draw for troops. We all
know that the rebels forced into the ranks
every white man who could do any sort OF
| military duty. No one knows this better
than Gen. Wheeler, because great deal OF
the duty done by the men of his command
consisted in hunting up and forcing into the
ranks every available white man.
6. The actual number of white troops
reduced to a three years basis-fnrnished
by the Southern States to the Union army
