Some were cool aud seemingly indifferent to pain, while others would beg to be made insensible, and often those who were slightly hurt made more noise than those that were fatally injured. Two serious cases out of the many T dealt with occur to me. f remember them more readily, perhaps, because they were Michigan men, with the rank of Captain I believe. You re¬ member the battle of Winchester, Seiatember 19, 1861? Yes? Well, on the morning of the light the cavalry brigade to Yvhich 1 was attached made an attempt to effect a crossing at Burns’s Ford, some miles below Win¬ chester. The hospital had been es¬ tablished in a little piece of woods on the east side of the Opequan, near tho ford. Three times did the brigade try to cross before success crowned their efforts, the sharpshooters ou the bluff opposite being very hard to dislodge. Iu a short time the wounded began to come in, some slightly and others se¬ verely hurt. Arnoug the latter was one of the officers I have mentioned. A sharpshooter’s bullet had struck him on the point of the elbow, pass¬ ing up and emerging about three inches from tho shoulder, shattering the bone in its passage. It was a bad wound, and a difficult one to deal with, the arm having to be cut off so near the shoulder. However, T de¬ termined to do the best I could, and soon tiie patient was ready for the knife. I wanted to give him chloro¬ form, but he would have none ol it. He assured me that his nerves were good, and that, he needed nothing to help him bear the pain. I was afraid of him, but at last concluded to let him have his way. He was true to his word. During the entire operation he never uttered a groan nor made any intimation that he suffered in tli3 least. Tins was the best exhibition of nerve I had ever seen in my army practice, not excepting the one I have mentioned. “The other officer alluded to was «.f a different type, but not a whit less brave than his companion in arms He was brought in later ou with a gunshot wound in his arm, which had shattered the bone and necessitated amputation. When he arrived at the hospital he was struggling like a mad¬ man to release himself from the at¬ tendants Yvho had placed him in the ambulance. I saw at once that the pain of his wound had made him crazy, and. directing the attendant to lay him on the operating table, I soon had him under the influence of an an¬ esthetic. He was very stubborn and it required a good deal of chloroform to quiet him, but finally he succumbed and I cut off his arm. When he came to his senses he scarcely seemed to realize what had happened.' He looked at me, then at his arm, and finally it came to him that his arm had been amputated and he could fight no more for many a day. With a sudden bound he leaped from the table, and seizing a carbine that was lying on the ground near by, he start- ed on a run in the direction of the tiring in front. He ran like a deer for a short distance, when the pre¬ vious loss of blood told on him and he suddenly collapsed and fell to the earth. He was picked up by the at¬ tendants, brought back, placed id an ambulance and started on the way to the rear. Tliere’a the difference be¬ tween two wounded men.’’ (xijjaniic Petrified Ojstsrv. A bed of petrified oysters was found on the top of Big Mountain, just back of Forkston, Wyoming County, Penn , a short time since. A. Judson Starke and William N. Reynolds, Jr., of Lafayette College, amateur geologists of Tunkhannock, spent a day on the mountain and brought back a fine col¬ lection of them. Some of the speci¬ mens are of mammoth size, one meas¬ uring twenty-two inehe3 long by nine inches wide, aud weighing forty- pounds. The specimens range in all sizes, from this down to the ordinary edible oyster of the present time. Some of the specimens show the eye oi the oyster perfectly, and ia all of them the meat is easily removed from the shell. The bed seems to be con- fined to a small mound resting on a broad plateau, at the extreme top of the mountain, near the Sullivan County line, and was first unearthed by workmen in grading a railroad from Lopez to the Jennings Brothers’ lumber tracts.—Philadelphia Ledger. It is a curious fact, if true, as stated by Seaboard, that the “great manu¬ facturing city of New York uses only about five times the steam power de¬ veloped by the engines of the steam¬ ship Lucania or the Campania.” Highest of all in Leavening Power.—Latest U.

The World told some time n^o of the coat of chain mail which Crispi, the Prime Minister of Italy, wears to protect himself against a stiletto or pistol in the hand3 of some Yvould-be nssassiu. Ah Itulinu newspaper lias recently published in detail the daily expense incurred by the Government in guarding King Humbert’s Minister of State, which is probably tho first time that unpopularity has been meas¬ ured by a pecuniary standard. According to thia paper Ctispi’a person is watched over by two com¬ missioners of police at 31.(3.) a day, twenty-two “agents” or detectives, at a little over ninety cents a day for each, and two vice-brigadiers at sixty cents each (one would suppose from their titles that vice-brigadiers would cost more). A carriage at 32.5 ) also iigures iu the bill. The total, reduced to American money, is $20.10 per day, $9526.50 per year. This, however, is only during tho time when tho Prime Minister is in Home. When he travels the expenses are three or four times as great, which bring tho annual amount up to about $1*2,000.—New York World. Honey Hies as Let.or Car: i *rs.
