A MYSTERY STILL.
Nearly a t enlurv ago a young fellow with a
smartish air, I hough of a small, ill proportioned
figure, landed at Die Cape of Good Hope, bring
npr IctlcrS of inirodueiion to (lie governor of
that colony from a well known eccentric Scot
tish nobleman. This lair-faced slender youth
licit! the humble i.nik of an assistant surgeon
in the army.
He soon showed that, tie possessed the power
of BClf-appri'ciaiion to such a degree as required
a liule taking down. Hut this was found to he
no easy lisk. He had the faculty called, in
French, Vuvrftt' often a good substitute ior
ability, but when the two go hand in band they
carry a! I before them, in one shaped or other;
and as the young surgeon was as clever. ns be
was impudent, tie made a position for himsetl,
and what is more, be kept it.
Dacia,- Janie we give part of bis name as i t
stood in lb.; Annv List in iSf,.V-was a physi
cian by Edinburgh diploma. As we shall show
by and by, lie never held any regimental rank,
pa sing, I mill ary to all precedent, to his lull
surgeoncy on the Malt.
llv dales tvom unqueslionaide records, he
seem • to have received his diploma at the early
~j {ll ! C , n. Whether these dates correspond -
‘i d Willi his ccrtiiiea'.e of baptism it is impossi
ble to sav, as under jtll cireumstances, u may he
doubtful-Whether aicha document ever existed.
wi,.e' -lit have been the status ot mili
tary medical t’.i'ii tifr.v years since, James liked
bis calling, .uni, socially speaking, was a g..'»-
tieman every inch ol him ; though this is not
illei iliV saying very mut li tor him, seeing lie
was but a little-man. He had a fair Allowance
1,0111 some source o|* other; Inii. lie- never spoke
of any relatives or friends out of the military
profession. His liahits were too expensive to
tie met by his mere pay and allowance. He
kept a horse and a private servant, and, as a
■ triet. vegetarian, would touch none hut the
most delicate fruits of the earth. Potatoes and
apples were, to him, "filthy roots;” the odor
of cabbages turned him sick ; but he liked peas,
and craved for asparagus, sea kale, peaches,
grapes, melons, tigs custard apples,.and, above
all, mangoes. Go I fee was the only stimulant be
could bear, except when ill, and then he would
sip diluted champagne or brandy, medicinally.
gome called him a toady ; but his letters ol in
troduction placed him at once in the best society
of the colony. Neither had he health lor gen
eral visiting. With those among whom lie lived
he made friends, and kept them. His testiness
was harmless, his abilities were unquestionable;
and it having been intimated to the governor
that the young medico’s duties were to he made
as light as the rules of the service would permit
Jie was installed as honorary physician to his
: • ' i' . z#
Excellency’s family, and soon obtained such a
reputation, both as physician and surgeon, that
private practice came to him without his seeking
it. liis queer ways and irritable temper rather
increased than diminished Ills prestige, and ho
held his own through good report and evil re
port.
When first called in to a patient he would
have, the room cleared of everything previously
prescribed, and would almost invariably order,
as preface to his course of treatment., a hath of
Cape wine! Happen what might, he claimed
the whole credit of a cure, or blamed others for
failure. lie was, to he sure, sent lor at times as
a last resource, li the patient recovered, Dr.
James had ail the merit; if death ensued “ Dr.
James had unfortunately been summoned when
the ease, was hopeless.”
IDs Excellency spoiled him. lie became a
kind of tame imp, encouraged as amusing and
harmless enough ; but, like such imps, he took
advantage one day of his position, and was im
pertinent. He had the enlre ol the governor’s
private cabinet. One moriiing, sauntering in,
he had the assurance to make
remarks on an official documenton the
table. Finally, he. worked such *
Hail t'»
tip by the collor of him
over the window siißi few fSßnbove the
grassy garden—and shook him. James screech
ed and cried pcecavai. He was forgiven, and
never offended there in the same way again.
Still, every one was persuaded that such un
warrantable humors as lie exhibited were only
tolerated by reason of certain influences that re
main a mystery at this day. Jlis next adventure
might have ended his career. The story from
Government House got. bruited abroad, and
much fun was raised at Doctor JainesVxpensc.
Home laughed about it in sueli away that
James could not but be aware of the fact. He
had been looking out for a chance of checking
the sauciness of some of the young fellows in
the garrison, and here was the chance at last.
One morning a tall cornel, \v hot# contemptuous
manner had much irritated him, was sauntering
under the trees Os a charming walk, in one of Die
most public parts of tin pc Town—where, to
Ibis day, tlie people arc wont lo sit. upon the
sloops, men smoking, women knitting, and
grave little Dutch children toddling up and
down —when James strolled up to the youtig
dragoon, a member of the governor’s stall'.
Janies stopped the way with a defiant, air. Some
ill-conditioned person had made the most of the
cornet’s disparaging jests. James was glad of
this opportunity of asserting himself. High
words ensued, the doctor’s shrill voice piercing
the air, and thus drawing attention (as he in
tended it should) to the encounter, which ended
in a challenge. Next morning a quiet little duel
took place. It ended well. Hands were shaken
and cornet and doctor became good friends for
life. If the affair ever came to the ears of the
governor, bethought it best to ignore it, accord
ing to the fashion of the day.
Doctor James afforded a good illustration of
the triumph of mind over matter. Tetchy as
tie was, lie never excited any professional jeal
ousy, albeit in defiance of all precedent lie was
promoted on the stair as full surgeon without
doing a day’s regimental duly. Frail in body,
unique in appearance, and eccentric in manner,
he insured respect by capacity, and as lie could
lie courteous when he pleased, his oddities were
excused by bis colleagues. He must have re
alized at liie period considerable sums by his
private practice, but be never changed his mode
of living. He kept a black servant, a service
aide pony, and a small dog called Psyche.
Most of Psyche’s successors bore her name.
The queer quartette usually took their walks
abroad in company, and were a well-known
group at Cape Town.
On Dr. James’ return to England he was of
fered an appointment at another colonial station.
Here, owing to the climate, or possibly to non
appreciation, he grew discontented, and, with
outpinaking any official application for leave of
absence, on pica of sickness or “ urgent private
affairs,” look his departure for England.
He would chuckle as he related the story of
bis unlooked-for reappearance before the direc
tor general of the medical department, in Don
don. “ Sir,” said Die doctor. “1 do not under,
staid your reporting you reel I in this fashion.
You admit roc have relumed w ithout leave of
absence. May I ask how Ibis is?”
“ Well,” said James, coolly nttming his long j
while liug| s Ihrou -h his crisp sandy curls, “ 1
have have in v hair cut.”
lie .tliaJlTlllPt* (.im l-lllon of the
.'ic’ryice v.jll; imp’imivand in vul'iiTM V boasted
iMßfr—». i rjjyilftiiiKMMWßr •of n'fKoy err.
Wroftr’-f™Was 'counted a lucky fellow; but
who he was, or what lie was, never ceased to lie
n question or debate among Ids brethren less
fortunate than lie.
It would scarcely be supposed that he would
submit to Die banishment of HI. Helena, bill lie
thought “it might suit him very well,” and lie
accepted it. It did suit him very well, until he
made it too hot to hold him. The climate
pleased him. The fruits and delicate vegetables
were strong considerations with him. His
health was more settled Ilian in former days,
liis'rcpntatioii was high, ami iie had brought
with him his usual letters of introduction.
Despite his shuffling gait, he might have been
no more than thirty, although he had been an
M. D. nearly twenty-four years! His smooth
face, his sandy hair, his boyish voice, and a tol
erable set of teeth, contributed essentially to
his juvenile appearance.
i Me was now' principal medical officer. He
installed himself in a pretty cottage at the head
oi James Town, and revelled in the tropical
fruits, as many wild read this account will re
member. A certain mango tree was bis favorite
bower. He paid well for .all lie had, and those
who had the best opportunities of knowing him
asserted that, selfish, odd,and cranky as he was,
iie had kindness for the poor, and was eliari
lable without ostentation. He would go about,
bestriding his pony in strange fashion, with an
umbrella over his head. His saddle was a cu
riosity. It was so comfortably padded and so
safely shaped that, one wedged into it, it was a
marvel how he got out ol it. In uniform lie
was a caricature. His bool, heels were two
inches above the ground, and within the boots
were soles three inches thick. Add to tlie.-e
boots very long spurs, crown the sandy curls
with a cocked hat, and complete all with sword
big enough for a dragoon, and you have the
doctor complete. The pony was enveloped in
a net from ears to heels, and swung Die tassels
about impatient of the gear. The black man
attended at the beast’s head, and Psyche tripped
alter them, the doctor’s treble waking up the
hot silence of the one narrow street shut in by
barren rocks, and Psyche’s bark making discord
at intervals.
He established himsell in the old fashion at
Government House, where lie was suffered to
talk ol his aristocratic acquaintance, sometimes
alluding lo those of oi lier days in a manner snl
fieienlly puzzling. As at Cape Town, be became
the family physician, or considered himself such,
and gave himself Ids usual airs when called in
to a private family. He. effected some great
cures, and gained the confidence ofliis patients..
His presence at the hospital was a signal for Die
juniors to be all on the alert The soldiers liked
and trusted in ids skill; but woe betide the
laggard medico who was not there to receive
the P. M. 0., or who had swerved one liairs
hrcudlh from Ids instructions.
Ail went on harmoniously enough for up
wards of a year, when the. doctor, in an evil mo
ment, picked a quarrel with an officer of the
garrison. The nil air led to a challenge, which
Die d/irior declined in no dignified way, and it
was followed by pis open expulsion from the
garrison mess as an honorary member. Final
ly, I iie governor called (or a court ol inquiry,
whirl* recalled ill James being sent home under
arrest.
The writer of this article witnessed bis exit
from James Town. On one ol those still, sultry
mornings peculiar lo the topics, the measured
step of the doctor’s pony woke up the echoes
*»t Die valley. There came the P. M. (>., look
ing faded and crest fallen. He was in plain
clothes. He had shrunk away wonderfully,
liis blue jacket hung loosely about him, ids
white trousers were a world 100 wide, the veil
garnishing l»is broad straw lint covered Ids face,
and he carried tile iitevil:ib)e umbrella over his
head so that it screened him Iroin Die general
gaze. The street was descried, but other eyes
besides Die writer’s looked on t he group, through
Die Venetian blinds. No sentry presented arms
at the gates, and the fa ntiliar quart cite proceeded
Unnoticed along the lines to the ship’s boat in
waiting.
Ilia influence had been at work for him before
lie landed. He was released from arrest, out
rageous as Ids conduct bad been, and again had
his choice of quarters. He went to other sta
tions, in the tropics, to Greece, and the Med
iterranean. He retained his facte for Govern
ment House society, and as he grew older got
less testy. He begu nto think of death and so
pulture, and would have had a friend in the
West Indies take an oath that if he (James)
died there lie should he buried in the garments
iie wore at the time. The friend declined to
swear, but Janies did not quarrel with him.
His last voyage was made as an amateur. Onr
winter drove him to the West Indies again,
j where lie gave out “confidentially” that, his
reasons for leaving England were very sad ; “a
! broken-ofl engagement with a young and beau-
I tiittl creature, and some trouble in money mat.

; solace.” Ilis former opponent in the duel was
! commander-in-chief, and lie and James were
cipital friends.
The summer ol ’6l brought him hack to Eng
. land, with Black John and a little dog whose
name was not Psyche. As the creature is pro
bably living she shall lie nameless. Doctor
James must now have been quite seventy years
old. His friends of former days held by him
to the last; be was often ailing, and the kind
ladies of his Cape patron’s laiiiily would take
him out driving in the park, and would have
him to dinner, with provisions of suitable fruits
and cakes and coffee.
It was asserted that he aspired to the honor
of being a K. C. 8., and his new uniform was
ordered for the last levee of the season. No
doubt his services entitled him to some distinc
tion ; and his influence still existed somewhere.
One day he returned to his lodgings I t orn a
carriage ride, shivering and feverish. lie went
to lied, and dispatched Black JohAwitli his
excuses from a dinner engagement ®pr next
day, Sunday. I
On that Sunday morning Black Jim went
into his master’s room, as usual, to layout his
1 body linen. Six towels were among Die invari
able items of bis toilet, and though Black John
never assisted at it personally, he was aware
that his master wrapped these cloths about
him; whether lie did so lor warmth, or to con
ceal any personal defects in his emaciated form,
was a mystery. No wonder the form was ema
ciated, lor James had accustomed to himself
for many years to periodical blood-letting either
by leeches or lancet.
On Black John’s return to his room he found
his master worse, but nothing would elicit bis
permission to send for the medical friend who
had been in attendance on him previously for
bronchitis. The faithful valet was alarmed, but
lie and the dog were the only watchers of the
sufferer throughout the sultry July day. James
lay dozing and powerless. It was after mid
night when lie rallied.
lie sat up and spoke to John, wandering at
times, and expressed eoneern at his long attend
ance, through so many hours—lie would have
John take some slight stimulant, which the
lailhful soul declined. Suddenly James faint
ed on his'pillow. The valet used restoratives,
which revived him.
“John,” gasped the invalid, “ this must he
dentil,” but John did not think so.
“ You are only weak, sir,” he said, “ let me
give you seme champagne and water, or Die
least drop of brandy in the wineglass of water.”
For James would lake such stimulants in great
extremity, and lie was now in great extremity.
He sipped a little from the glass, and said,
more gently than usual, “Have some yourself,
John ; you need it, and you will not mind
drinking after me.” They were his last dis
tinct words. John again declined refreshment,
fearing lie might fall asleep, but, at his master’s
request, went to lie down in an adjoining room,
thinking that “ the General,” as James chose to
he designated by Ids valet, would get some
rest.
Always considerate to Ids dependents, “Die
General ” bad been almost tender to John. lie
had spoken to him ol his lonely life. “it was
not always so, John,” lie had said. “Oncol
had many friends. I have some still, and
Diose are very good tome; but they arc not
Die friends of early times; they will lliiuk of
me, (hough, and if you want help, they will
remember you for my sake. Now, go and lie
down. 1 think I shall sleep.
He never awoke again. At daylight John en
tered the sick-room. The curtains were closed
so he took the night light and approached the
bed. “The General” had died without a strug
gle. IDs eyes were closed. The worn features
were calm. There had been apparently no
pain
John drew the sheet over the face, and de
scended to the kitchen l'or a charwoman, whom
lie knew would be there at that hour. He sum
moned Her to. assist at the last toilet of the
dead “General.” As shccloscd the door of the
room, he retreated to his own, and laid himself
down, tired out. lie was closing His eyes, when
the charwoman hurried in. “What do you
mean*” she said, “by calling me to lay out a
general, and the corpse is a womau V”
1 John was utterly unprepared for this, although
like many others lie had fancied the “Genera!”
to be “different from oilier people some way or
another.” There had been floating suspicions
respecting the sex ol tlie doctor, but John de
clared he had never thoroughly shared in them,
lie had lived with the “General” three years,
and, whatever doubt be might have had at first,
he had latterly dismissed from his mind.
Aicording lo John’s account, the poor crea
ture—the “ okf girl,” as Die ghostly adept in’
her calling termed her—was not treated in her
last toilet with the courtesy she had never
wanted during her military career. Before the
poor corpse was laid in its grave news reached
the registrar general of the discovery, and he at
once called for a report from the proper autho
rity. The report was, “ that alter a post mortem
examination, it was found that Doctor James,
of her Majesty’s service, was not only a woman,
but had at a very early period of life been a
mother.”
The deceased's effects were taken possession
of by accredited agents. Notwithstanding the
large sums of money sin: must have received as
fees during her long course of private practice,
she died penniless. The question arises; How
had she spent the fortune she had made? As
hush-money, or in support ol the child who, if
still living, must be an elderly person?
James left no will. There was nothing to
leave but Die poor dog. A nobleman's valet
came for the animal, and settled accounts with
l»l:u k John, even lo giving him the return pass
age money to the island whence he came; and
no one lias since appeared to claiin apy relation
ship witli the eccentric being, who was even
more mysterious in death than in life.
Doctor Janies was buried at Kcusal Green
late in July, 1805, and is registered under the
name borne from the time of his entering the
army as hospital assistant.

fciT A YOUNG LADY RETURNING T«a HER
country home, after a sojourn of a few months it the
City, was hardly recognized by her friends. of a
coarse, rustic, Hushed face, she had a soft ruby complexion
of almost marble smoothness, and instead of twenty-iliree
she really appeared but eighteen. Upon inquiry as .to
the cause of so great a change, she plainly told then that
she used the CIRCASSIAN BALM, aud considered it .tii
iuvalu ble acquisition to any Lady's toilet. By its use
any Lady or Ueutiomau can improve their personal ap
pearance an hundred fold. It is simple in its cotibina
tion, as Nature herself is simple, yet unsurpassed in its
efiicacy In drawing Impurities from, also healing, cleans
