LAW IN THE SOUTH.
In the periodicals of ora day, Litera
ture is well represented by the Southern
Magazine of Baltimore; Theology and a
'ride range of cognate learning by Dr.
Bledsoe s Southern Review of St. Louis:
and the Law by ‘‘The Southern Law
Review of Frank T. Reid & Co., publish
ed at Nashville, Term
The April number of the Law Review
now before us is extremely attractive.
The first article is from the pen of one of
the most profoundly learned jurists in
this country, Hon. W. F. Cooper of Nash
ville, at present a Tennessee Chancellor.
Mr. Cooper, after haring been a Judge of
the Supreme Court of his State, sojourned
for several years in Europe, frequenting
Courts in England and France, and
thoroughly mastering the jurisprudence
of the Old World. Mr. Cooper’s article
before us is entitled “Modem Theories of
Government,” and is the second of a sc*-
ries he is publishing on that subject.
They deserve the serious study of the
statesmen and jurists of the South. Wo
think President Grant would have made
a happier selection than even Chief Jus
tice Waite had lie appointed to the head
of the National Judiciary Mr. Cooper.
Another article, and perhaps the most
fascinating to the general reader in the
April number of the Southern Law Re
view, is from the pen of a Georgian. It
is entitled “The Parkman Murder,” and
the author is Mr. Chas. J. Swift of Cols
umbus, Ga. This article presents a con
densed history of one of the most remark
able murder cases that ever came before
the Courts of the United States. Dr.
Webster was an eminent Boston Profes
sor of Chemistry, and owed a hard-fisted
wealthy money-lender .$427.27. Dr.
Parkman, the lender, was “pressing”
Webster with duns. The latter received
Parkman. by appointment, into his Chem
ical Labratory, slew him, obtained and
destroyed his note, and then destroyed
the greater portion of Parkman’s remains
in his Labratory furnace by chemicals,
and by heat. It is a history which is
truly “stranger than fiction.” But the
murder would “out:” and Webster was
hung. W. G. M.
CHIEF JUSTICE WAITE.
The successor of Marshall, Story, Ta
ney and Chase, recently appointed by
President Grant and confirmed with great
unanimity by the Senate of the United
States, occupies too distinguished a posi
tion not to interest the public in the
events of his personal history.
Morrison Remiek Waite, son of the late
Chief Justice of Connecticut, H. M. Waite,
was bom at Lyme in that State November
29, 181G—was graduated at Yale College
n 1837—and was admitted to the bar the
following year in Ohio. In 1849 Mr.
Waite was elected to the Ohio Legisla
ture. In 1871 he was appointed one of
the counsel for the United States at the
Tribunal of Arbitration at Geneva, which
transacted its business in 1872. In 1873
both parties in the Ohio Legislature (of
which he was a member) united in making
him the presiding officer.
President Grant nominated him as
Chief Justice, vice Judge Chase, dec’d,
in January last, and he was unanimously
confirmed by the Senate, March 4. 1874.
Some opinions of his, already delivered,
give an earnest of great judicial ability.
The excellent “Eclectic Magazine (pub
lished by E. R. l’elton, 108 Fulton St.,
N. Y.) contains a sketch of the Chief Jus
tiee accompanied by a very fine steel en
graved likeness. This number (May,
1874) contains also the usual variety of
the very best articles gathered from the
latest European periodicals—forming the
richest bouquet of magazine literature
anywhere to be found.
MARY SOMERVILLE.
The learned and unrivalled “Soutnem
Review” of Dr. Bledsoe, for April con
tains a fascinating article on Mary Som
erville and her writings.
The career of Mrs. Summerville was
certainly a most extraordinary one. Ac
quiring knowledge, not only without en
couragement, but in spite of potent ob
stacles thrown in her way, she became
finally the companion and the equal of
many of the most learned scientists and
authors of modern times. The Edinbur
Review of April, 1832, in allusion to her
popular summary of the “ Mecanique Ce
leste ’ of La Place, says, “ This is unques
tionably one of the most remarkable works
that female intellect ever produced in anv
age or country ; and with respect to the
present day, we hazard little in saying
that Mrs. Sommerville is the only indi
vidual of her sex in the world who could
have-written it." In 1834 Mrs. S. was
elected a member of the Learned and
Scientific Society of Geneva ; in 1835 she
was made an Honorary Member of the
Royal Astronomical Society; and in 1869
she was presented by the Royal Geograph
ical Society with the Victoria Medal.—
The President of this Society then spoke
of her as being engaged in “abstruse
mathematical problems” at that date, in
her 89th year. And over all her long life
was shed the halo of a real and genuine
Christianity. Yet with all this devotion
to Science, and authorship of several sci
entific volumes, this marvelous woman
was noted for her attention to her house
hold duties. She was unexcelled for her
vigilant care as a housekeeper and as a
mother. "What a glorious illustration
she affords of true “Woman’s Rights ”—
the rights of Christian goodness, Learn
ing and Greatness!

THE SOUTHERN MAGAZINE.
We observe in one corner of the Green
Table of the May number of the Southern
Magazine by Turnbull Bros., Baltimore)
the following sonnet from the pen of a
lady of Milledgeville:
TO THE IIJ.ISTKIOIS DEAD.
Dedicated to the family of Gen. K. E. Ltit.
O mournful South ! still thy afflictions fall
With heavy hand—still frown the darkened .-kies,
And o'er thy Chieftain’s home the shadows lies
Deeper and deeper, til! the triple pail
Enfolds great fattier, wife and daughter all!
Hut with a sun-ct glow, half light, halt gloom,
Bcnde Immortality to gird eaelt tomb
With Fame’s eternal ever-lasting wall!
I'haiik God that in this world’s last crumbling stage,
When Wrong grows rampant, and the holier Right,
Beaten, betrayed, and crushed from age to age
No mote can live, even yet can die arisjkt ;
When the great “pure in heart” from Wrong’s dtre
May mount to loftier realms and bask in heavenly
light. Mailt Faith Floyd.
It will be remembered that the South
ern Magazine is under the editorial
guidance of Wm. Hand Browne, and is
the official organ of the Southern Histor
ical Society. The present number (May
1874) contains two valuable historical
documents touching events of Southern
history,, entitled “Retreat of Custis Lee s
Division, and Battle of Sailor s Creek,
“Extracts from Gen. V a<te Hampton s
Reportof Operations in the Fall of 1864.
Each number of the Southern Magazine
contains valuable publications relating to
events in the great “War between the
States.”
PHYSICAL EDUCATION OF WO
MEN.
Four hundred men were saved from the
wreck of the Atlantic, and one boy of
twelve years of age. Not a single woman
saved. No especial effort was made
to save the boy. He saved himself by a
judicious use of bis feeble strength. But
many men made gallant efforts to save
their wives, their sweethearts and their
daughters. Why is the total failure ?
The answer is plain. The women could
not swim. The women could not climb.
The women could not cling to a rope
stretched from the ship to the shore. The
women were not dressed either to with
stand the cold or allow them the free play
of their limbs and muscles. A little fee
ble boy could climb the rigging, could
crawl along a rope, could safely drop
from the height into a rocking boat, but
the women could do nothing useful to
themselves or others. Yet if the ship had
been filled with barbarians, as many wo
men as men, proportionally would have
reached shores. Our boasted civilization
and the decrees of fashion and miscalled
propriety murder women whenever an
emergency arrives which reduces all
caught in a great catastrophe from “la'
dies ’ and “gentlemen” to a dependence
upon animal strength, cool courage, mus
cular and mental resources capable of
battling with the elements. There never
was a more terrible lesson of the danger
ous folly, not to say the criminal wick
edness, of our civilization in trying to
make women helpless, weak and defence
less creatures such as nature never de
signed them to be; and yet this lesson
will pass utterly unheeded, as so many
hundreds of previous ones have passed.—

OF ADVERSITY.
BY LORD BACON.
PLYMOUTH CHURCH.
The following, extracted from a “ Ba
zaar’ of last year, sheds a flood of light on
the course of Rev. Henry Ward Beecher,
and the scandals that have gone into gen
eral circulation and belief connected with
his name. Mammon is a mighty- power;
and when too much wealth goes into the
Church and the minister’s coffers, there
I? danger that he shall not be able to serve
God and Mammon both.

It was a liigb speech of Seneca, (after
the manner of the Stoics,) that the good
things which belong to prosperity are to
be wished, but the good things that be
long to adversity are to be admired:
“Bona rerum sccundarum optabilia, ad
versarum mirabilia.” Certainly, if mira
cles be the command over nature, they
appear most in adversity. It is yet a high
er speech of his than the other, (much too
high for a heathen,) “It is true great
ness to have in one the frailty of a man,
and the security of a God:”—“Vere mag
num habere fragilitatem bominis, securi-
tatem Dei.” This would have done bet
ter in poesy where transcendencies are
more allowed; and the poets, indeed,
have been busy with it; for it is in effect
the thing which is figured in that strange
fiction of the ancient poets, which seem-
eth not to be without mystery; nay, and
to have some approach to the state of a
Christian, “that Hercules, when he went
to unbind Prometheus, (by whom human
nature is represented,) sailed the length
of the great ocean in an earthen pot or
pitcher, lively describing Christian reso'
luiion, that saileth in the fr ail bark of the
flesh through the waves of the world.”
But, to speak in a mean, the virtue of
prosperity is temperance, the virtue of
adversity is fortitude, which in morals is
the more Iieroical virtue. Prosperity is
the blessing of the Old Testament, adver-i
sity is the blessing of the New, which
carrieth the greater benediction, and the
clearer revelation of God’s. favour. Yet
even in the Old Testament, if you listen
to David’s harp, you shall hear as many
hearselike airs as carols; and the pencil of
the Holy Ghost hath laboured more in
describing the afflictions of Job than the
felicities of Salomon. Prosperity is not
without many fears and distastes; and ad
versity is not without comforts and
hopes. We see in needleworks and em
broideries, it is more pleasing to have a
lively work upon a sad and solemn
ground, than to have a dark and melancho
ly work upon a lightsome ground: judge,
therefore, of the pleasure of the heart by
the pleasure of the eye. Certainly virtue
is like precious odours, most fragrant
where they are incensed or crushed: for
prosperity doth best discover rice, but
adversity doth best discover virtue.

O, Ml’BTI.E I.KSSON !
BY MARY FARLEY.
“Be ye aa wise as serpeuts, and as harmless as doves.
Oh subtle lesson ! Yet divinely dear.
To knowledge simple, but to practise hard;
Reduced to practice it sweet fruit wiil bear,
Bringing us ever as a rich reward,
A harvest of content,—
Oh subtle lessen ! It combines with art,
A worldly wisdom, self-protective, pure,
And ever non-aggressive, keeps the heart,
To God and man nndeviatitig, true
Analysis most deep will herein find,
A thought the scoffing skeptic to enchain.
Philosophy—more deep than yet attained,
By earth s philosophers. And again
Themoarnful doubter sees with vague delight,
Hoping, yet feariog, and with sin dimmed sight,
Alight, to guide his faltering feet alight.
Be ye os wise as serpents—toeontrol,
Discreetly the high power of speech, which gives,
A discord harsh, or an harmonious whole,
To the deep chords of every soul which lives,
A life-song to its God!
Conscience for long an honest guide will prove,
To those who listen to her promptings pure.
Until perplexed by sin. or by self-lore,
The conscience sleeps; then false views will obscure,
The truth, and life’s true interests. God's word
To even the wisest worldling, here becomes,
The safest guide. It we forget or scorn,
The lesson plain, speech will offensive grow.
Ah ! how we hale, the sick the toted breath,
Of Envy or of Calumny, which seeks,
With poisoned words in hidden tones the death,
Of another’s fair repute. Still we know
That evil speech will often times rebound
Upon itself, and often-times it brenks,
The evil heart which gave it utterance.
Turn on tby heart an introspective eye,
Ah ! me my friends, how can we e’er forget,
Audlliarslily judge an erring brotliei's fault.
When we ourselves have sinned and suffered so ?
The heart should mercifully heave a sigh,
Of pity and regret. Alas', we know,
IIow unwise oft are we, my sisters dear,
IIow quick to speak the desolating word;
AM thoughtlessly, perhaps; should we Dot fear,
Justice retributive 7 Itsurely comes,
To him who revels in another’s woe.—
As sin must ever bring its own deep grief
And life is so replete with woe and sin.
Let us to sin-sick souls give the relief,
Of helpful words, of kindly sympathy;
And if witliiu our souls, God’s truth we keep,
Siu never is contagious. We are wise,
If we remember always, even facts
If evil, should be silent kept, to make,
Graves for themselves, in every honest heart.
Be ye as wise as serpents; learn to trust.
The heart and secret counsels to the man,
Who lov'.-tii truth and mercy, and who lives,
Uenuuciatmg evil, on this plan,
“Measure for measure as ye mete it shaM,
Ever be measured unto you again.”
Arid yet, if still decieved, thy trust betrayed,
Forgive always, and thus our hearts may grow,
As innocent as doves; Alt no! Ah no!
A heart so pure tiiis world may never see,
A heart so harmless, mine may never know,
For look again, with self dissecting eye
Our own hearts often so like vultures seem.
Ever remorseless preying onthemselr s
Iiffsecret. Oh how like a wretched dream,
Is life so full of cankering care ami strife.
On stormy sea, with these two gifts combined,
We rarely can our life boat safely steer,
The closer we to heart the lesson bind,
More wise, more innocent, we grow and find,
The light ot immortality more clear, more near-
Life is so complex and the governing laws,
Of sense andspirit.so widely do diverge,
’Tis hard to live a .tight! Society enthralls,
With chains so strong, so heartless, we emerge,
But rarely iuto spirit life from fashion’d world.
Conventionality, a iiimsy veil
Throws over all, and while the starving soul,
Lies faint, and sick, we disapproving feel,
Our work is wasted on the casket frail,
While the rich gem lies perishing within 1
Mothers! Ye love your children, and ye know,
How hard the task their fair young foet to guide,
And keep in God’s pure sunlight, and bestow,
Right training for this nerld.
Behold this law! If rightly ye construe,
Worldly success ensures. Heaven keeps in view;—
Remembering always if God’s good ye geek,
Life’s goods will all be added unto you.

School Teachers’ Vacation to
rope.
It will be remembered that last June
the steamer Victoria sailed from New
York with one hundred and forty-eight
school teachers and professors on board
of her, bound for Vienna and a tour of
Europe. These teachers came from twenty
seven States in the Union, and seventy'
eight were ladies, without male escort.
They were enabled to make the tour at
about half the rates charged to ordinary
persons, through the arrangements of Cook
Son & Jenkins, of 261 Broadway, New
York, the celebrated Tourist and Exciu’
sion Managers. How successful the Ex
cursion proved, and bow delighted the
members were with the many beautiful
and wonderful things, in art and nature,
they saw T in Ireland, in Belgium, on the
Rhine, in Switzerland, in France, and Lon
don, we will leave them to tell; we merely
desire to give, as an item of news, the in
formation that this firm are repeating this
year the successful experiment of last
year, and have chartered the new and
magnificent steamer “Bolivia,” which will
sail from New York on June 30th next,
with another Educational Party, compos
ed of Teachers, Professors, Ministers, and
others engaged in educational work, for
an excursion to the Giant’s Causeway,
Glasgow, Oban, Fingal Cave, Iona, The
Caledonian Canal, Inverness, Stirling Loch
Katrine, The.Trossachs, Loch Lomond,
Edinboro, Melrose, Abbottsford, Alton
Towers and London. The party will be con
ducted fr om New York to London by Mr.
Thomas Cook in person, and will be car
ried in special trains and special boats.
In London, the party will be divided
into three sections: the first will go only
to Parts and after spending ten days in
that city, return to London, Glasgow and
New York—though any who wish may
remain longer. The second section -will
go to Antwerp, Brussels, Cologne, up
the Rhine to Weisbaden, Heidelberg,
Baden Baden, Strasburg, Bale, Lucerne,
over the Bernese Oberland to Giessbach,
Interlacken, Beme, Freiburg, Lausanne,
Bouveret, Martigny, Tete Noir Pass, to
Chamouny and Geneva; thence to Dijon,
Fountambleau, Paris, Ronen, London,'
Glasgow, and back to New York.
The third section will proceed as far
as Weisbaden and Mayence, under the
programme of the second, and will then
strike off to Munich, Inimbrack, Yerona,
Transplantation of Teeth.
In a former number of this Journal,
(April, 1871,)we noticed the fact as estab
lished, that teeth are capable of being
transplanted so as to retain their vitality, j
forming new attachments, like grafts on
trees. Dr Isidor L. Lyons, an eminent
English dental surgeon, furnishes to the
Loudon Lancet for November the result
of his experience in the operation. He re .
fers to the two attachments that are sever- 1
ed in exti acting a tooth first, the periosteal
adhesion, and second the nervous and
vascular connection. There is no reason, ]
he says, why the alveolo-periosteum should !
not again unite to the tooth, seeing that
if a piece of periosteum be stripped off a j
bone it will reunite if placed in contact
with the bone and kept at rest. The union
of the divided ends of a nerve is also a
recognized fact; but even supposing the ;
latter impossible, the tooth would merely ,
be in a condition of one which has had j
its pulp destroyed, a common operation
in dental surgery. Out of twelve on
which he has operated, nine were sue'
cessful, aud three failures. It is difficult
he says, to induce patients to submit to
an operation in regard to which they are
so incredulous. The plan pursued by
Dr. Lyons, be describes in these words:
“A tooth which is to be replanted should
be carefully extracted, and as little as
possible of the surrounding tissues lacer-
ated; it should then unless the operation
be simply for the destruction of the
dental pulp, and where the periosteum is
healthy, be immersed in some antiseptic
fluid, such as diluted carbolic acid or
chloride of zine (the latter from experi
ence being preferred): the socket should
then be swabbed out some half-dozen
times with a strong solution of the same
antiseptic employed. The tooth, if car
ious, should be plugged and returned to
its place. If there is any thickening of
periosteum, fibrous growth, sac of abscess
or absorption at the extremity of the
fang, it should be excised before replan'
tation. Should patient complain of pain
arising from the operation, prescribe pop
py fomentations, although the pain is
rarely more than is due to the tenderness
of parts from the laceration of soft tis
sues after the extraction of the tooth.
This process is subtantially the same
as was described in the Pacific M. and S.
Journal nearly three years ago, and cred
ited to another English dentist M. Cole
man, who had succeeded in nine out of
fourteen cases. Dr. Lyons makes no
reference to him, except to mention that
he “suggested” the operation.—Pacific
