THE DoCToR's SToRY.-Canon Mac
Coll quotes a remarkable case related
to him by physician who had been a
pupil of Sir Charles Bell, the eminent
author of The Bridgewater Treatise
on the Hand" Sir Charles used to tell
the following story to his class
"a surgeon who went over the field
of Waterloo after the battle found a
man lying with his scalp cut off by a
sabre stroke. He picked up the scalp
and, finding the man breathing, though
unconscious, he ordered him to be
placed among the wounded, clapping
at the same time the severed scalp on
his head, in order that it might be bu-
ried with him, for he did not expect
that the poor man would recover. The
following day, however, he found the
man conscious and his scalp adhering
to his head. but with the ends reversed,
for the surgeon, thinking the man was
dying, took no pains to fix the scalp
properly. The man recovered, but bad
to wear his scalp the wrong end for

Hickman VS.. Norfolk &c Western
Occupies the Entire Day.

Tho entire day of Roanoke County
Circuit Court yesterday was occupied
with tho examination of Messrs Briggs
and Simpson, umbermen, who testified
as TO the amount and dates OF shipment
of the many carloads OF lumber set forth
In tho declaration Of N. Hockman. The
next proof will, no doubt, be as to the
date Of Hockman's receiving the same.
According to the opening statement of
Colonel Hansbrough, the plaintiff did
not claim damages for any material re-
ceived by him twelve days late, but only
for delay above that time, some lum Der
being delayed forty five days. Many OF
the carpenters formerly employed by
Mr. Hickman will be called 70 testify in
mis- behalf to show that their time was
not fully occupied on account of delay
In receiving lumber.

Harry MacAbee, charged with being
one OF the burglars who entered the
barroom of Il. S. blackwell, near Cave
Spring, on the night of the 3Ist ult.,
and stole therefrom Sl53, was before
Justice Camper yesterday afternoon.
He was defended by Attorneys Lcckett
and McClung, whilst Major Ballard rep

Of people from Roanoke were present,
including one or two soiled doves and
Police Officers Mack Morris, Eakin,
Rigney and Smith. The prisoners

and Salem dummy, sat beside him
during the trial and seems confident
that his son will yet be able to prove
his innocence.
Mr.. Blackwell gavo his testimony
pretty much IS has been published in
TIE TINES previously, and Dr.. White
testified to hiring buggy TO tho pris-
oner that night. Other witnesses were
called, and whilst one OF the young
ladies of easy virtue" was tesftifying
the commonwealth sought 30 impeach
her testimony. Shortly afterward At
torney Lockett endeavored to return
the compliment as to Officer Morris,
whcreupon the eX-chief nipbl. arose
with the intent OF -'clawiug" the attor-
ney, but was restrained by his fellow
officers. Then ensued regular STAN
pede, everyone making for tue door, ex-
pecting fight or @ funeral, or both.
One poor fellow not being able to get
out into the street fast enough jumped
smack through the glass in Justice
Campers door. Order being subse-
quently restored the case proceeded
and the attorneys went on speaking
until dark, when they came to an end,
and the magistrate sent Macabee on to
the grand jury, remaining him to iail
in tho meantime.
