SUNDAY MOKNING, JUNE 23, 18ti7. lieadiiig ;Hai«er os*. Every Pas«. 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. ! i,. rs . He bad lost documents, jewels and fami ! |y records on board a vessel which liad found ered at sea. JJe was unhappy, and he wanted *\ i Squares.

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.
