William Robertson smith. TFrorn the Iandon Ssturdav Pavfauo

It Is fully two years since the friends of
 Prof. Robertson Smith reluctantly rscos-
 nizsd that his case was hopeless. Their grief ct his loss is none the less sharp that they were prepared for 1t. His rooms in ChSist's college were a gathering place for all that was bsst in Cambridge; and
 when he himself was a prisoner, confined oftsntimes to sofa, he never wsaried of his pupils and his visitors, and never saved himself the trouble of bsstowing a kindly joke or e pleasant compliment. These rooms were a constant soure of admiration.
 He took the greatest pride in the furniture and the pictures; but, above all In the beau tiful prospects front and back into the first court and into the gardens of the col lege. Besides his pictures and etchings- for he was an excellent judge of most kinds of art he looked most lovingly at his books
 He liked 6 rare editions and admired hand some bindings and wide margins.
 From the time when be succeeded Brad
 shaw at the University Library, the study of bibiliogrspby became one ot the delights of his life, though he had seldom bestowed a thought upon it before; but Robertson Smith could not take up subject, how ever trivial, in a superficial manner. He knew many arts and scienees; few men
 have ever been privileged to know SO many;
 but he made each of them, ss 1t were, 6
 part of his existence, and was specialist
 in each. Apart from the two subjects which have made him famous, he was 8 well-resd mathematician, and, in fact held . mathematical chair for @ time at Aberdt en ss deputy to the professor. He was a pro
 found student of most branches of law, English and foreign. He understood the
 more sbstruss branches of anatomy, espe- cially that relating to the movement and functions of the eye. He was c good the oretical astronomer. He might easily have posed ss an eminent naturalist. He was both botsnist and sgsrdener-sn unusual and c real knowledge of 1t He was su admirable architectural critic, with A strong leaning towards Gothic. He was s great numismatist, so great, snd his colleo- tions so judiciously made, that We must hope his gold coins, st least, will now be | acquired by the university or some other puoIic body. With all this knowledge, | and much more than we can partlculsrize, he was remarkably modest sb0ut his own | requirement., and, when compimsnted on come more than usually brilliant display of unexpected information, he would lsughinsIy refer to his intimate share In
 the production of g well-known encyclo- paiis. It was also to be remarked that he was slways ready to acknowledge ignorance
 and never. gave san opinion on what he did not understand. His genislity and his Il tenderness to the Weaknesses of others
 made him welcome everywhere, and no
 notice of him will be complete which does
 not mention his singular ability as 6 re- | aouuter of atOries

ABOUT A RIGHT.

The Constitution of the United States
 says that the right of the people to be se-
 cure in their persons against unreasonable
 searches and seizures shall not be violated.
 Some interesting questions involving this
 right have lately risen in the State of New
 York. For instance, the girls in Brook
 lyn school protested against having their
 legs vaccinated by young male doctors.
 Unfortunately, perhaps, this matter was not
 brought to legal decision, but a compro- mise was made whereby female doctors
 did the vaccinating of the above mentioned legs.
 Another interesting case is now in the
 New York courts. About 8 year ago the
 legislature passed an act compelling plain
 tiffs who sue for damages because of injury to the person to submit to 8 physical ex.
 animation by physicians named by the court before the action can be maintained. The case now before the court of appeals comes from the city of New York, the plaintiff being Miss Agnes Lyon. She l. also in one sense 6 defendant in resisting I bu0 cAcCutloh oL siko Okooh Sy SdeSo ASSSS' A. Pryor of the court of common pleas, that she submit to have her person examined by two physicians named by him. Her suit
 Is to recover damages because of injuries
 received in collision upon the Manhattan elevated railroad. When Judge Pryor made the order for au examination, Mist Lyon's counsel appealed to the general term, which reversed the order. The csse is before the court of appeals upon the motion of the railroad company. The principal argument of Nelson Smith, Mis- Lyon's counsel, is that under the law { plaintiff demanding damages for injury tf the person cannot have his or her cast tried in the courts of New York without first submitting to assault by order of ths ccurt. By the law, interference with thu person without the persons consent is as sault and battery. That is, a plaintiff must consent to . second Injury to hel person through . physical examination by men who are not restSained in the least fl making tests.
 It is said that this case will be taken tt the Supreme Court of the United States The real question ts, we suppose, whethe such examination as that a uthorized by tn New York law is "unreass uable."

From the Paris Correspondence st James
 GaEstte
 The late Prof. Brown-Sequsrd was typicial example of the thorOughness with which men of foreign origin embracsFrench nationality when they have once decided upon this step. The son of an AmercIan named Brown, and born in sn Euglish isl and, his preference for his mothers nation slity never seems at any time in his life to have been a matter of doubt with him. And yet the Anglo-Saxon was so strong in his character that he made 1t felt by his intimate friends to the end of his life His pertinscity, his moral courage, his coolness (soms would say cold bloodsdnsss). and his indifference to opposition were thoroughly Anglo-Ssxton. But with these qualities were mingled much of the viva city and genial temper of the French.
 His passion for scienos was 60 genuine that long before he had any right to dream of the distinction that destiny reserved for him he did not allow poverty, violent pre- | iudice, or ridlcule to turn him from exper- timsnts which some forty or fifty years ego were generally regarded as either wicked or absurd. Many are the amusing anecdotes told of thst sarly period of his life. After obtaining his doctors degree in Paris be rsturnedto Msuritius, where his exper- | imsnts upon living animals caused him 10 | be looked upon by some ss madman and | by others as . wizard. Indeed one can | auite understand the sstonishment and horror of simple minded people when they found that he had grAfted rats tails upon | cocks' combs The inhabitants were more | scandalIz sd than amused by the fantastic | effects he produced by the mutilstion of animals. Mauritius was no place for him, and after come experience in America he returned to Paris.
 | His ardor for vivisection encountered | lees prejudice here than elsewhere; but he | was poor ss young man that iu the interest of science he felt compelled some times to have recourse to expedlents of ques tionable taste to obtain subjects for | his soalpel. Being at that time on intimate
 terms with Cesar Dsly, who kept guines pigs, he used to pick out one from the num-
 ber, and, after feeling the little besst's ab- domen very knowingly would shske his | head and ssy that 1t was either too hard | or too soft, and that unlees- he took the case In hand there would be a death in the family. No Ruineapig that he ever took away returned to its family. IL was num-

You will need two brushes, and have one dry ing and heating while you use the other. If you brush faithfully till the hair is quite dry there will be sn unwontei gloss on the tressea, the part win be 6 clear pink that will Soon turn to clear white, and the short stubby hairs will be more or lese laid ct least for c time. If they are very discoursging you may use little vas aline near the part, but 1t is seldom sdsis- able. Once e month at least all the hair should be washed according to this meth cd. You will find that the use of vsssline first, and tte brushing with hot brushes till dry, will leave the hair flexible and glossy instead of dry and fluffy. ''Dry and fluffy" used to bs the much desired condition, but 1t is to be avoided now.

LEAVE US BROTHER WAYLAND.
 We shall not join the Register and Cox ey's army in exhibiting resentment against Brother Wayland, the boss and the blos- som of the Yale Law School. We do not feel any resentment because he has decided and announced that what is printed innewspa- pers is not likely to be true. Indeed, we feel that one who has had such training in the law and the gospel as Brother Wayland has Is quite as likely to be accurate and truthful in his remarks as any writer who spends his trivial life in trying to discover and tell the truth about great men and It, tie ones, great things and little things. So we are shaken. And our shskiness in- stinctively and painfully connects itself with some of the remarks which the indus trious newsgatherers and reporters have made about Brother Waylsnd himself. Must we turn iconoclsst and break the image of him which we have lsboriously erected from material furnished by thof @ who he now decides are not likely to tell the truthi We have often read that Brother Wsyland's impressive presence "graced" this, that or the other meeting. Wasn't that likely to be truef Didn't he have sn impressive presence and didn't It gracef We have read that he was seen ex- hibiting elegant horsemanship on occa- sions when 1t would be appreciated. Wasn't that likely to be truea Didn't he ride fine horse finelys We have read that he presided over religious assemblies with great acceptance. Wasn't that likely to be true9 We have read of him as potent philanthropist and an easy solver of social problems. Wasn't that likely to be true9 We have read of him ss being @ power in politics. Wasn't that likely to be trueg We have read of him as bsautifying banquets and generating ferked lightning in electric storms of post-prandial wit. Wasn't that likely to be truea We have read and published long papers said to have been read by him at assemblies which the newspapers have said he adorned and instructed. Wasn't that lk6ly 70 D0 truef 1lQu'I 10 Iehu oE huofu U or instructa We have read of him as the efficient Dean of the Yale Law School. Wasn't that likely to be truea And we read only yesterday in the Hartford Courant that he made some remarks to the Yale law students which were described by the Courant as "bit of cold sense. " Wasn't that description likely to be trusi Didn't Brother Wsyland talk cold sense to the students2
 It Is like losing an eye tooth to realize that what the newspapers have said of Brother Wsyland with such apparent generosity and truth wasn't likely to be true, but we have Brother Wayland's own command for the doubt. We would appeal from the decision If there were higher court to appeal to. But there is none, and all we can do is to beg him to review the evidence and if he can see his way clear to so modify his decision that we can at least retain belief in what we have read about him. Let the rest go if 1t must.

The very best way to know whether Dobbins' Electric Soap is as good as it is said to be, is to TRY IT YOURSELF. It can't deceive YOU. Only be careful not to. get au imitation. There are a great many Elec- tries and Magnetics, all intend ed to deceive the public into supposing that they are Dob- bins Electric, or just as good. We have made this since 1860. It is the original Electric and is guaranteed to be worth four times as much as any other soap ever made. For washing anything, from the finest lace to the heaviest blanket, it is without a peer.

Goethe's Visit to Carlsbad.

There is no doubt that the life of the great poet was greatly pro- 1onged by drinking the waters of the Sprudel Spring. In our day we have the Sprudel Spring brought to us in the form of Salt, which is obtained by evaporation from the waters of Carlsbad.
 The CARLSBAD SPRUDEL SALT (powder form) is in no sense mere purgative, but is an alterative and eliminative remedy which dissolves tenacious bile. al- lays irritation and removes ob- struction by aiding nature. It acts soothingly and without pain. Beware of limitations. The genuine article has the signature of EIS- ~NER & MENDELSON CO, sole agents, New York, on every tottle.

 The largest piece of cut glass ever made in America is now on exhibition in New York. It wss made at the pioneer cut glass factory of the United States, now about forty years running. The piece weighed seventy pounds before 1t was decorated and lost about twenty pounds in the cutting. It is 6 punch bowl eighteen inches high and twenty-four inches in diameter. The actual cost of production was nearly $400, and five men were busied five days in decorating 1t. American cut glass makers admit that one English house surpasses them in some kinds of work, but insist that the continental glass cutters do not equal their American rivals. English glass cutters earn very moderate wages, but the pay of skilled men in the United States is from $25 to ss5 per week. Strange to say, American inventors have not great ly improved the machinery for cutting glass. It still consists of the iron wheel fed with sand for the first rough cutting; the stone wheel with water for the next process; the wooden wheel with putty dust for the next, and the brush wheel for the final polishing.
