In no city in America, writer Amos .1.
( nnnitiiiL:- from New York, cm one full
sick and senseless with ns great a sen of
security in twin# cared for as in New
Y"rk. The city is divided into districts
convenient to the several hospitals, and
more than a score of ambulances, each
running in its prescribed district, arc on
the go all the while. The patient falling
sick or injured on the, street will regain
eoiiseioiisncsa to find himself in Bellevue,
Harlem, Ninety-ninth street. Presbyterian
nr < iouverueur hospital, his deal inat ion de
pending on the district where he cliunee*
to lie stricken down. If it is found that
he tins money and is able to pay if 7 to f 'iO
a week for hospital care he may he taken
to New York, St. Luke’s, Roosevelt, Mt.
Sinai, German. St. Vincent’s, or St. Fran
cis hospital. I f he his no money the city
charges itself with his care. Bellevue is
the great receiving hospital. It is outlie
east side of Manhattan Island, at the
foot of Twentieth street. It i- mi irregu
lar group of buildings arranged around a
grass platted court, and built of rough
atone, with piazzas at each story, that
give it the appearance of a .outhern villa.
The patient is taki n on a stretcher into a
reception room, where lie is examined,
and the attending physician demies to
which department of the hospital he uni t
he sent. If lie has a broken limb or is
otherwise maimed lingoes to the surgical
department. If siekiu sand not death
has overtaken him, lie goes to the medi
cal department. A corps of twelve phy
sicians and forty trained nurses are on
hand. The doctors arc front one of tin
three tiledii ul college corps that have lie
cess to the hospital or from the non col
legiate stafT. There are no hoimeopathic
doctors in Bellevue, lint the patient so
inclined may he transferred to the ho
mieopathie hospital.
A corps of I.irly trained female nurses
from tin- Bellevue training school are on
duty in Bellevue Hospital. They earn
from f|H tu is2o per month and their
hoard, which ninoiints to $lO per month,
the sum being paid to the principal of the
training school. Their course extends
through two years, during which they
have tlie benefit of tho Bellevue hospital
practice, which they, as well as the
physicians, value as superior to any other
experience olitninnhle in America. At
the end of two years they are graduated,
and, if at all proficient, they at once find
employment at from ifto $ol) a week.
The supply of trained nurses seldom
equals the demand. (ireateareis exer
cised in admitting ladies to the school.
A surprisingly lurgo number of well
educated ladies from the higher walks of
life enter the profession. Bellevue at
present has one lady nurse who is the
daughter of a member of the Canadian
parliament, and another who came from
one of tin- aristocratic families of tile
city. Very frequently a young lady who
levs been crossed in love finds relict in the
ai t ivities of the life of a nurse in Bellevue,
amt occasionally one enters the service
with no thought hut her profession, when
one of her patients falls in love with and
eventually marries her. There are some
very pretty women among these nurses,
and their white lace cups and blue and
white dresses become them immensely.
Winn the patient has reached Bellevue
it may lie found that his ease is a chronic
one. and lit w ill, as soon as he is able to
he transported, he sent the Hospital for
Incurables. His ease may lie found to
he one of small pox, or some contagious
disease, in which event lie will he sent to
the hospital on North Brother Island,
one of tile several islands in the Fast
River on which are |>uhlic institutions.
If his ease develops into one ol erysipelas
lie will he removed to the little wooden
pavilion on the hank of Fast River that
forms 0110 of the group of structures
called Bellevue II oqiiial. Insanity may
he the outcome of the disease, mid then
the patient is transferred for a time to
the insane pavilion ol Bellevue, where a
nurse skilled in insanity w ill quickly timl
out whether or not the patient has de
mentia, mehineholiii, religious excite
ment, or suicidal tendency.
In one ward of Ilellevue, separated
from the rest of the room by great iron
grates, are a number of patients paring
the floor like caged lions. They are the
attempted suicides, usually about six in
number, and two or more policemen ure
constantlv oil hand to guard them.
The smell of earholie arid pervades
the great building, and in summer it is
oppressive even in the morgue. The hos
pital is on Fast River, and the most
easterly of the community of buildings
is s one story strut turc built on spiles
out over the river. This is the morgue.
It is sided with red tile from Ohio,
floored with cement and provided with a
block amt tackle to pull up •'floaters”
from the river through u hole ill the floor.
On iron stands at either side of the build
ing are coat sc board eoflins, many of
them so poorly made that they are com
ing apart. The eoflins are made by city
prisoners, and cost the municipality
nothing, except the price of the lumber,
rhere were Inst Wednesday fifty adult
corpses, besides twenty tour little eoflins
at the north end of the room containing
the bodies of children. The practice of
keeping a spray of waUi tailing over a
corpse in the morgue is no longer fol
lowed, it having been found that the
water aids, rather than arrests, decompo
sition. hi the hoi summer months a red
i lay, procured from Baltimore and im
pregnated with carbolic acid, is
sprinkled over the bodies, and keeps them
two days. Every morning tho steamer
Fidelity takes a ghastly cargo of from
eight to twenty of these bodies up to
Hart’s Island, where they arc buried in
trenches, one above another, six in e.
grave, iti the potter's field. The eoflins
are designated by numlver, and no head
stone marks the grave. The relatives of
the dead are not allowed to uccompuny
the remains, and no prayer is s.,id over
the body. If it be au “unknown” the
clothing and trinkets are stored in tin
morgue office for six months, when they
are destroyed. The better class of raiment
is eleased and giv en to prisoner« The ino-t
horrible performance about the hospital
falls to the lot of the photographer of the
Bellevue, who takes pictures of remark
malformations and discs ed organs for
the benetit of medicine or surgery. When
au unidentified corps >:e bes tlie
morgue ho lias to prop it up arid take its
photograph. This photograph is stored
in the morgue office with a gn at collet:•
. lion of horrible pictures of tho dead, and
at tho end of tho twelve months it is de
stroyed. if no one cornea to claim it and

The (list requisite is a very sharp and
suitable sized knife. All efforts or un
necessary exertions in carving arc in very
bad taste, as they show great want of
expert ness in ihe one earving or tough
no-- in the meat. Dexterity and address
in handling the knife, and not strength,
is w hat is necessary to carve well.
The seat should besuflii icntly high for
1 the carver to have complete command
over the joints, and the dish shpuld he of
good size, placed sufficiently near the
foot of the table. For ham, Imeon or a
large, thick joint, a long, sharp pointed
knife is required, while for poultry or
game a short, thin knife is hotter.
In carving fish care should he taken
not to break the flakes. In serving
salmon cut slices along the backbone and
also along tlie flank. Haddock is dished
whole unless unusually large, and should
he split lit the table, its whole length,
1 ami served one half, the head to tlie tail
of I lie other part: it is then carved across.
’ Mackerel and shad should he carved so as
to raise one side of the flesh from the
' hone, the upper end is considered the
best. The roes are much 1 i Is< <I.
In earving turkey cut of the wing near
est. you first, then the leg and second
joint; then slice the breast oIT, inserting
the knife between the bones and separat
ing them. The side hone lies beside the
rump, and I lie d< sired morsel can he taken
out without separating the whole hone.
A goose or a thick should he cut with
1 as many slices from the breast as po- ,iblo.
A sirloin of beef should he placed first
on a dish with the tenderloin underneath.
Thin cut slices should he taken from the
side next the carver first, then the piece
should he turned over and the tenderloin
cut.
A shoulder of mutton should he carved
across the middle of the hone first, then
from the thii lv t part lill it comes to the
grist le.
In a line quarter of lamb, separate the
shoulder from the ribs, which can then
he nicely divided.
To carve a loin of veal, begin at the
small end and cut the ribs apart.
A fillet of veal should bo eut first from
the top
In a breast of veal th • brisket and the
breast must be separated and then cut in
m at pieces.
A ham may bo carved in several ways.
First by cutting long, delicate slices
through the thick fat in tho centre down
to the hone, or hy r running the point of
the knife in the circle of the middle and
cutting thin, circular slices, thus keep
ing the hum moist, and, lastly, by be
ginning at the knuckle and slicing up

Major MajurolT, an artillery ofileor and
nide-dc-cimp to the governor general of
j Odessa, died, as was supposed, somewhat
uddenly, and was interred forty hoars
aft- r v arils. A few days ago, whilst the
family vault iri the necropolis was being
renovated, the coffin lid was noticed to
hive been partly forced open and the
corpse was still bleeding, which confirms
the statement of a workman that his at
tention was first attracted by a noise in
the coffin, and the unfortunate major died
only on the instant of the appalling dis-
I covery.

“THE BLOOD IS THE LIFE.”
Thoroughly cleanse the blood, which is the fountain of health, by using Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery, and good
digestion, a fair skin, buoyant spirits, and bodily health and vigor will be established.
Golden Medical Discovery cures all humors, from the common pimple, blotch, or eruption, to the worst Scrofula, or blood
poison. Especially has it proven its efficacy in curing Salt-rheum or Tetter, Fever-sores, Hip-joint Disease, Scrofulous Sores

ULUluni.o. Golden Medical Discovery as directed by
him for such complaints, and in ono week’s
time I began to feel like a new man, and am now sound and well.
The • Pleasant Purgative Pellets' are the best remedy for bilious or
sick headache, or tightness about the chest, and bad taste In the
mouth, that I nave ever used. My wife could not walk across the
floor when she began to take your ‘Golden Medical Discovery.’
Now she can walk quite a little ways, and do some light work. 1 ’
Mrs. Ida M. Strong, of Ainsneorth, Ind., writes :
HIP -JOINT “My little boy had been troubled with hip-joint
■m wuini disease for two years. When he commenced the
lIIQPICP 1180 °* your ‘Golden Medical Discovery’ and
UIOLHOC. ‘Pellets,’ he was contined to his bed, and could
—not bo moved without suffering great pain. But
now. thanks to your * Discovery,’ he is able to be up all the time.
CONSUMPTION, WEAK LUNGS, SPITTING OF BLOOD.
Golden Medical Discovert cures Consumption (which is Scrofula of the Lungs), by its wonderful blood-purifying, invigora
ting and nutritive properties. For Weak Lungs, Spitting of Blood, Shortness of Breath, Bronchitis, Severe Coughs, Asthma,
and kindred affections, it is a sovereign remedy. While it promptly cures the severest Coughs it strengthens the system
and purities the blood.
It rapidly builds up the system, and Increase* the fleeh and weight of those reduced below the usual standard of health by
“wasting diseases.”
Consumption.— Mrs. Edward Newton, of Earrmcsmith*
Ont., writes: “ You will ever be praised by me for the remarka
ble cure in my case. I was so reduced that my friends had all
given me up, and I had also been given up by two doctors. I then
went to the best doctor in these parts. He told me that medicine
waa only a punishment in my ease, and would not undertake to
treat me. He said I might try Cod liver oil if I
ft II- liked, as that was the ouly thing that could possi-
KJVEN UP bly have any curative power over consumption so
_ far advanced. 1 tried the Cod liver oil as a last
Tfl lllE treatment, but T was so weak I could not keep it
I U uil. on mv stomach. My husband, not feeling satisfied
to give me up yet, though ho had bought for me
evervthing he < tw advertised for my complaint, procured a quan
tity of vour 'Gohlen Medical Discovery.’ I took only four bottles,
anil, to*the surprise of everybody, am to-day doing my own work,
and am entirely five from that tenable cough which harrassed mo j
night and day. I have boon afflicted with rheumatism fora number ‘
of years, and now feed so much better that I believe, with a con- ;
tinuation of your‘Golden M-dieal Discovery,’l will be restored
to perfect health. I would say to those who are falling a prey to
that terrible disease consumption, do not do as I did, take every- I
thing else tipit: but take tho ‘Golden Medical Discovery ’ in the ;
early stages of the disease, and thereby save a great deal of suf
-1 - r 'ng and be restored to health at onoe. Any person who is
still in doubt, need but write mo, Inclosing a stamped, self
addressod envelope for reply, when the foregoing statement will
be fully substantiated by me.”

covering the whole of the lower limbs from feet to knees, then
attacked the elbows and became so severe as to prostrate her.
After being treated by several physicians for a year or two she
commenced the use of the medicine named above. She soon
began to mend and is now well and hearty. Mrs. Poole thinks
tho medicine has saved her life and prolonged her days.”
Mr. T. A. Ayres, of East New Market, Dorchester County, Md.,

procured three bottles of your • Discovery/ which healed it up
perfectly.” Mr. Downs continues:
Consumption and Heart Disease.—“l also wish to
thank you for the remarkable cure you have effected in my ease.
For three years I had suffered from that terri

A- a skeleton: could not sleep nor rest, and many
SKELETON times wished to die to be out of my misery. 1

hopes of curing me. but it would tak" time. I
took five months’ treatment in all. The first two months I waa
almost discouraged: could not perceive any favorable svmptoms,
but the third month I began to pick up in flesh and strength. I
cannot now recite how. step bv step, the signs and realities of
returning health gradually but surely developed then,.selvae.
To-day I tip the scales at one hundred and sixty, and am well

Our principal relianoe in curing Mr, Downs' terrible disease
was tho “ Golden Medical Discovery.”
