Mr Hr. ib-tAifVqd his appoint

Aliihllclowu. notice I lull
his services uirml to bold
I an inquest on tin* body ol !\liss
Sarah Wilson. In describing the
cifcuiusdaiiceii of Miss Wilson' ,
death. Dr. Ilervey said that lie
lore beginning !he operation he
itdtiumslered an ordinary dose of
chUiroforin. As soon as I lie pa
tient. was under ils inlluem-e lie
MeuLto work and extracted live
teeth. Then the patient showed
sigys of returning consciousness,
and tqial out some blood. I Ik*
anaesthetic was again applied,
and the dentist went on with lib
port. lieogtfueled four or live
more U'eth; he couldn't toll the
number owing to the ex
citeiiieitt he w;vs under, for the
paliyut w;is suddenly seized with
"spasms,” and in spite of his ef
forts to resuscitate her she died
in the chair.
Mr. Beguiuc appears lu have
befell the only person, besides Dr.
Ilervey, wlm witnessed the oper
at ion and the consequent death.
He agreed with the doctor that
after the second application of
chloroform the patient went into
convulsions, and died before -lie
could be released from the inllu
eitfo *ol' the anaesthetic. Dr.
ilfpjy* supposed that the pa
tieut was suffering from an over
dose of the chloroform, and treat
"either accordingly to the best of
his ability, when in fact she died
of asphyxia, the result of the co
ugulated blood running down
I I aud lilling the trachea.
The post mortem examination
prior to holding the inquest was
made by Dr. Feeney, of Staple
ton, and some horrible tacts
were revealed by ib "I made
the post-mortem examination
ver> thoroughly." said Dr. been
ey last evening, -in order to a<
eertaiu*A‘\ttci ly what was the
cause •! death. I didn't know
but thuf. someone of the vital
organs might have been diseased.
Bcsidts, it was rumored among
* the m tirfd mrs that another oper
ation had been attempted, and
that her death resulted from that
and not from the extraction of
her teeth. To begin with, I ex
uiuined the mouth to see what
teq-th hud been extracted. 1

three more had been crushed, the

Peter Bennett and tli<‘ Doctor.
11. W. ('. has been interview'
ingllon.A. 11. Stephens for the
New York W orld, and reports the
following incident, as related hy
Mr. Stephens of his law practice:
A doctor named Royston had
" T mo7| I'eter Beimel t tor Ills lull,
long overdue, for attending the
wife of the kittor. A. 11. Nte
pliens was on the Bennett side,
and Robert Toyinb , then Senator
of the I niti*d Stale . was fir Di.
Royslon.
The Doctor proved In', number
of visits, their value according
to local custom and hi* ow n an
Ihority to do medical practice.
Mr. Stephens told his client tluil
Hie physician had made out his
case, and as there was nothing
w herewith to rehut or offset the
claim, the only thing left to do
was to pay it. " No," said Peter;
•■I hired you to speak in my #nse
and now speak."
Mr. Stephens told him there
was nothing to say ; In' had look
ed on to see that it was made out
and it was.
Peter was obstinate, and at
last Mr. Stephens told him to
make a speech himself, if he
thought one could he made.
• I will," said Peter Rennett,
•• if Robin Toombs won't lie too
hard on me."
Senator Toombs promised, and
i'eter began : "Gentlemen of the
jury, you and 1 is plain farmers,
audit we don't stick together,
those ore law vers and doctor* will
get the advantage of n< 1 hift't
no lawyer or doctor, and 1 ain't
no objections to them in their
proper place, but they ain't far

"Now, this man Royston was a

"I don't," Ihlmdored the'siloetor.
"Did yon cure hi iff n ' asked IV

The Doctor was silent, and Pe

The physician again put in his

you think I am no doctor."

The man of medicine was now
in a fury, and screamed out. "ask
my patients if I am not a doe

*•! asked my wife," retorted Pe
ter, "an' she said as bow :she
thought you wasn't."
-Ask my other patients," said
Dr. iiovston. •
Tills seemed to be the straw
that broke the camel's back, for
Peter replied with a look and tone
of unutterable sadness; "That is
a hard sayin’, gentlemen of the
jury, and one-as require* me. to

to bring the angel Gabriel down

and say to "urn as is at last at rest
from physic and doctor’s bills,
‘Get up here, you, and state if
you died a natural death, or was
hurried up some by doctors ?'—
He says ask his patients, and gen
tlemen of the jury, t hey are all
dead! Where is Mrs. Beazley’s
man Sam ! Go ask the worms in
the grave yard, where he lies.—
Mr. Peake's woman Sarah was at

was appointed, and he had the

Johnny Sanderson is a bad boy.
The day before Christmas Johnny
made some “fish hooks" by bend
ing a great many pins-in a peon
i liar shape. Christmas forenoon
jho had t hem in the dining room
and, hearing some boys w histling
! in the shrill way all hoys under
stood, he rushed out, leaving his
; pin hooks lying on the table and
lon the chairs. Johnny never
gave another thought to them un
till two o'clock, when the family,
including Miss Giggins and the
minister and Elder Dalton and
wife, cordially invited guests,
were about to take their seats to
an ylegaut dinner, --Sitjright down
here said jTLfs. Sanderson to Miss
G , "Ouch!” exclaimed
the latter lady, in a voice of ago
ny, as she rose from her seat and
carefully settled back again. Par
son. take this seat; Brother Dal
ton, iSister Dalton, this way;" and
Mr. Sanderson beamed with noble
Christain grace, hospitality. "My
savever!’' suddenly exclaimed the
w ortny’parson in stentorian tones
that fairly shook the windows.
•Immortal Zaehariah' echoed bul
ly Deacon Dalton, and Mr. San
ilerson, startled at such an unu
sual exhibition, actually gasped
a-he dropped like a pile driver
into the chair. "Pull’cm out!" he
at once howled, as lie leaped, with
i start Haig eyeballs, half across the
room. An immediate investiga
tion divulged the trouble, and
: quiet and goodhumor were restor
ed. The only remark made after
Johnny gave his explanation was
hy the parson, who, as he eyed
Johnny sharply, quietly said:
-These pins are bent in a very pe
culiar shape for fish hooks.’*-t’u/-

Look at those lingers, how nimbly

The Result of Idleness.
The wind was blowing keenly,
the snow lay thickly upon the
ground, night was setting in dark
and dreary, tlie lowing herds were
hastening to their stalls—still, an
old man sat on the wayside, shiv
ering, with stiffened limbs, and
his head bowed on li is staff. A
little boy passing, cries, Poor old
man ! Do go home to the lire,
you will freeze there.
<>h! my kind little boy. I have
lioM'oine, no comfortable fire.
When I wasyOungl was idle, Wo
ing nothing but play marbles,
tops, or ball, or rob birds nests.
Mv paifnts tried to get me to
work or go to school; hut 1 would
play truant and deceive them.
Thus Ldiil, day after day, until
they were no more. Now 1 was
left, pennyless, vet the habit of
idleness had become so fixed that
I only worked when I was obliged,
for bread. Now you see my head
is white, my limbs tottering, and
not being able to work. I am com
pelled by hunger to beg, wan
deling lonely in the world. Peo
pie become tired of feeding me
every day. tlio’ they may be able
to do so; and many would give
me a morsel, who have it not for
themselves. So take warning,
my dear little boy, and work
while you are young, laying up
your pennies for sickness and old
age, if you do not wish tx> be
come a beggar, and throw dis
grace on your father's and moth
er’s name.
