Holmes, (physician, philosopher and poet,) in a lecture upon physicians, gives the following account of some mistakes which aro made in medicine :— Soon or late, everybody is tripped up in forming a diagnosis. I saw Velpeau tie one of the carotid arteries for a supposed aneurism, which was only a little harmless tumor, and killed his patient. Mr. Dease of Dublin, was more fortunate in a ease he boldly declared an abeess, while others thought it an aneurism. He thrust a lancet into it, and proved himself in the right. Soon after, ho made a similar diagnosis.— He thrust in his lanoet, as before, and out gushed the patient's blood, and his life with it. The next morning, Mr. Dease was found dead, and floating in his blood. He had divided the femoral artery.. I have doomed people and seen others doom them, over and over again, on the strength of physical signs, and they hav6 lived in the most contumacious and scientifically unjustifiable manner as long as they lived, and some are living still.

FRESH GOODS WX- HAYDEJf, JOI1N UAYDEN, GEORGE BAYDElf. Oh i it id hard HfiK After Ttnfer,1 To lo9e from love's bright chain. And trembling on the grave's cold brink Aladdin began by swapping jack knivea and getting the best, and bartering halves of marbles stuck together for whole ones. When he grew older and sold berries, that he picked on the hillside pastures, lie greased the quart pot, so that a little capital was carried forward to the next measure. He hayed hard all summer and went to evening schools all winter, and learned the golden rule of arithmetic—addition for himself, subtraction for his neighbors ; and in all the games, he held strictly to the rules of Tournabout. "You tickle me and I'll tickle you, if 1 oan j but at all events you tickle me." At an early age, Aladdin was considered to be good at a bargain, which meant that he always succeeded in exchanging the worse for the better—always keeping the blind eye of a horse to the wall when he wanted to sell him. and always looking straight at it when ho wanted to buy him; and the approving villager shook his head, and said, "Let Aladdin alone to sucoe«d." He grew up and left the village for tl)e world. "He'll be rich," said the village, with more enthusiasm and envy than any village says of a departing boy, "He'll be honest, faithful, generous." To Aladdin the whole world was but a market in which to buy cheap and sell dear. For him there was no beauty, no heroism, no piety, no history. To him, all lands and waters are alike, for cach is unhallowed by association. No Homer sings for him along the iEgcan, he only curses the wind that will not blow him to Odessa. No sirens oall to him from the sunny shore; he loves the the sharp oath of the brutal boatswain. With a Bible in his-hand and a quid in his mouth, he squirts about the holy places of Jerusalem, and calculates the cost of the sepulchre. He scratches his name with a jack knife upon Egyptain obelisks by the side of the hieroglyphed names of Kameses and Thothmes—names that shook early history with their grandeur; and the revered echoes of the Lybyan desert that have slept since they heard the shout of Alexander's army marching to find the oracle Amnion are awakened by the shrill whistling of Yankee Doodle and old Dan Tucker.

The heart that breaks too easily is like an empty nut, that cracks readily from very emptiness. festly moribund. In Dr. Elder'a Life of Katie; you will find a story of this sort, told by Dr. Kane himself. The captain of a ship was dying of scurvy, but the crew mutinied, and he gave up dying for the present to take care of them. An old lady, near her end, got a little vexed about a proposed change in her will, made up her mind not to die just then, ordered a coach, was driven twenty miles to the house of a relative, and lived four years longer. Cotton Mather tells some good stories that he picked up in his experience, or out of his books, showing the unstable equilibrium of prognosis. Simon Stone was shot in nino places, and, as he lay for dead, the Indians made two hacks with a hatchet to cut his head off. lie got well, however, and was a lusty fellow in Cotton Mather's time. Jabez Musgrave was shot with a bullet that went in his car and came out of his eye on the other side. A couplo of bullets went through his body also. Jabez got well, however, and lived many years. Per contra, Col. ltossiter, cracking a plum stone with his teeth, broke a tooth, and lost his life. We have seen physicians dying, like Spigcllus, from a scratch. And a man who had a crowbar shot through his head is alive and well. These extremo cases are warnings. But you can never bo too cautious in your prognosis, in the view of the great uncertainty of the course of any disease not long watched, and the many unexpected'turns it may take.

On the 14th of that month at 3 o'clock p. m., the inhabitants of Dhurmsalah, about twelve miles south of the granite peaks of the Dhaoladhar mountains, were startled by the noise of a most terrific explosion, which lasted about three njinutes, and almost persuaded the hearers that the whole of that magnificent range was falling down. The solitary cloud that was visible had settled upon the highest peak, and from that direction something was heard whizziug through the air so near the earth that all hands were involuntarily raised to shield their heads. An instant after a huge black mass was seen to fall in the diiection of its path about a mile away. The spot was at once visited, and an immense block, apparently granite, covered over with a pitchy substance, had buried itself three feet into the ground. When dug out it was found to be of an i,cy coldncss, so that pieces broken from it could not be hdd in the hand. Two smaller pieces of the same substance fell within two miles of it. Thftstructure of the granite corresponds cxactly with that of the mountains, and as they are covered with perpetual snow, the icy coldness of the meteor suggested a conjecture that the explosion tore it from the peak, 1,000 feethigh, and carried it twelve miles through the air. The question was to be scientifically examined. llow many women have been ruined by diamonds, as bird-catchers entice the lark from heaven to earth with sparkling glass.
