983SÇBI B o b W h it lo w ’ s F ir s t P a t ie n t . How. as a general tiring, young doctors, and lawyers get their first patients and clients is one of the un solved mysteries. I know how it was in Bob Whit low ’s case. Bob, after graduating with honor at a fist class medical college, went West, and, picking out a populous and sickly neighborhood, pitched his professional tent, and hung out his shingle and boldly offered himself as as healer of the people. His moderate patrimony had bare* iy sufficed to meet the expenses of 1Ú3 legiate and medical course, leav ing his sole dependence for the fu ture on success in the walk of life he had chosen. A few months convinced him that the immediate prospect was not promising. Dr. Chincougli had reigned there for so many years with undisputed sway, that the offer of a young and inexperienced practition er to compete with him was general ly looked upon as a piece of imper tinence. True, the neighboring graveyard disclosed a mortality out of ail pro« portion to the population; but no body attributed that to “ Old Chin.,” as some of the less respectful called him. I have already said it was a sickly region: ¡ nd old Chin, had a pappy knack, moreover, when his patients died of laying the blame on Providence, and when they didn’t of ascribing to himself the glory. As for my friend, Bob Whitlow, old Chin, simply ignored his exist ence. Things began to look blue for Bob. His board bill fell behind, his office rent got into arrears, and unless af* fairs took a speedy turn, an unpleas ant crisis must soon be reached. One day a well dressed young trav eler fell sick at the village inn. The landlord—with whom Bob boarded— would fain have got the latter into the case; for the stranger had the ap pearance ot a man able to payq and, if Bob got a good fee, the prospects of his board bill being settled would be decidedly improved. Accordingly, when the sick gen tleman spoke of calling a physician, the landlord would have recommen ded Bob on thè spot; but tli9 stran ger, going on to say that he wanted to consult a man of age and experi ence, his host had no alternative but to name Dr. Chincougli. Call him immediately, said the sick man. Old Chin, found the stranger dan gerously ill. He invariably found his patients so. Catch him under rating the difficulty of a casé. He gave assurance of his ability, liowev- ever, to bring the gentleman round in time, though the process might be slower than could bo wished. Strong medicines and plenty of them was old Chin.’s rule of faith and practice, and on it he eet to work in the present case The result wras singularly unsuc cessful. Every symptom combated seemed only to be aggravated by the remedy wherewith it was sought to allay it, whilst the patient was con stantly complaining of freshpainsin parts of his system not assailed be fore. Old Chin, was at his wit’s end. , He had never in his whole profession al life met a case so obstinate. Meanwhile the patient grew rapid ly worse and at last, to all appearan- ances, lay at 'death’s door, Old Chin, gave it up. His skill was fairly baffled. I feel it my duty to warn you he said, addressing his sinking patient, that your case is beyond the reach of medical aid. If you have any worldly matters to attend to there is no time to be lost. Is—-there—no other—physician in the place ? feebly gasped the stran ger. Old Chin, shook his head. Beg pardon, the landlord ventured to hint; there’s Dr. Whitlow. Oh, I didn’t think of him, old Chin, answered with a sniff. Send for him, said the stranger. Yes, send for him, said old Chin, with evident disgust. A messenger was dispatched, and Bob lost no time in obeying the summons. Old Chin., with a superciliotfs air gave Bob a brief summary of the case, and an outline of the treatment hitherto pursued. I trust it meets your approbation, he added with a curl of his lip. I only wonder the man isn’t dead! ejaculated Bob. What do you mean ? Mr.------W it less? Whitlow, corrected Bob. Whitlow or Felon, bellowed Old Chin, in a fury, I demand an expla nation of your insolence. I only mean said Bob, quietly, that the remedies you have administered were enough to kill a horse. Perhaps you can prescribe better, Sneered'Old Chin. If I couldn’t I. wouldn’t try, said Bob. Suppose you do try, retorted Old Chin, contemptuously. There’s my prescription, answer ed Bob, having written it off hastily. What! replied the other with deep scorn, stimulants for a man in his condition ? I Should think so, said Bob, after tho prostrating treatment he has gone through. I will try the new prescription, whispered the sick man with effort. Bob prepared it, and the patient swallowed it. The effect was instan taneous. The stranger declared himself entirely relieved, and, but for being cautioned by Bob against such rashness, would have gotten up at once. Oíd Chiu, was astounded but not convinced. It’s the temporary effect of the stimulant, he said; when that passes off there will be a relapse. But there was no relapse; and much to Old Chin.’s chagrin, the stranger was up and able to travel the next day. Bob’s reputation was established from that time on, and old Chin.’s began to wane. Indeed the latter found it convenient within a year to retire on the fortune he had already made, leaving the field clear to Bob. It was not till many years after ward that it leaked out that Bob’s first patient was an old college chum of his own, with plenty of time and rnon'ey on his hands, whose journey through Bob’s town and sudden ill ness "there, and wonderful cure, were all parts of a concerted scheme between the two to give Bob a lift, and that the famous prescription, leaving out a few unimportant in gredients, was nothing more than a stiff brandy cocktail. It must have been a severe trial of your friend’s devotion,I remarked to Bob when he told me the story, to swallow Old Chin.’s doses. The worst of them he didn’t swal low, said Bob, but only let on to. After holding them in his month awhile he would spurt them out, pretending that, like Mickey Free’s Emetics, they 'wouldn’t lie on his stomach.’—New York Ledger. A great deal has been said about the enormous income received by the National Grange of the Patrons of Husbandry in Washing ton from subordinate granges in all parts of the country, and much curi osity has been expressed as to the disposition made of the fund which accumulated from the sale of “ dispensations” and the contribu tions of dues, which, it is estimated, must reach several hundred thous and dollars per year. A correspon dent, who is an officer of à grange in Texas, sends us some information on this subject which is explicit and interesting to those who possess curiosity as to the doings of the Grangers. Our correspondent says that the grange of which he is a member sent the_ customary fee of $15 to the National Grange, and in return received one tin box with brass look and key; a blank book for the Secretary, and another for the Treasurer; thirteen manuals and thirteen song books; thirteen copies of the Constitution of the National Grange; one suit of regalia for men and one for women members, as pat terns, together with copies of the different blanks used in the grange, all of which cost probably $6 or $7, winch would reduce the amount from one subordinate grange in the hands of the National Grange to $8 or $9, not counting the annual dues. When the great overflow occurred in Louisiana the National Grange dis.- trib uted $20,000 among the suffer ing Grangers there, and our corres pondent says that it has contributed large sums to the relief of Grangers who have suffered from the devasta tion caused by the grasshoppers in Kansas and Nebraska, while the bal ancé of its receipts bas been invested in United States interest bearing bonds and held as a fund from which to draw for the assistance of dis tressed Granges in case of need. He adds that if all the money sent by his grange to the National Grange had entirely dissapeared, he would have considered is as a good invest- mennt, on account of the benefit which he and his associates had de rived from the organization in many ways.—New York Sun. The trade dollar which has been introduced iu the coinage of the United States promises to" be of great value to tli9 country, It is a hand some coin; unlike the Mexican dol lars, it is uniform in size and weight and the pure silver in it exceeds in value that in either the old American dollar or the Mexican dollar, and is about-the same as that of the Japan ese yen. The Chinese have assayed it, and finding it really more valuable than the Mexican dollar, have given it the preference. In Japan, the Oriental Bank, an important corpo ration, has officially announced that it will-hereafter be received in the ordinary course of business at par with the Mexican dollar. The de sign of the trade dollar was not only' to supplant the Mexican dollar, and thus save a tax of from five to seven per cent, upon the commerce of the United States with the Orient, but likewise to afford an outlet for the silver bullion product of tb9 Pacific States, and both of these ends are likely to be attained. The British merchants in China have fought strenuously against its introduciion in that country, but without success and it is only a questiofi of time when London merchants doing busines with China and Japan will emplpy the new coin for their transactions. One evening last week a material- zied spirit, that had been delighting an Eastern »ircle of the elect, got a frightful whaek on the head from a cane in the hand of a skeptic, and the next day there was pasted on the shutters of the officiating medium’s store a bit of paper containing the following legend: “ Closed on ac count of a death in the family.” Frank Leslie’s Illustrated Newspaper, in speaking of the Force Bill, says: “ The close of the civil war was speedily followed by the disbandment of both the great armies, and before a twelvemonth was over the four- year’s inhabitants of camps and wielders of the implements of war were transformed again into the busy workers in the fields and shops of North and South. And the country boasted of the ease and almoat noiselessness with which the palpable signs of war were removed- and the pursuits of the soldier ex changed for those of the farmer, the mer chant, the artisan, and the tradesman. There was surely reason for thankfulness, if not for boasting, for the obed ience of the people to.law was truly impressive. The event proved that military methods could with us promptly yield to the ordinary course of civ il procedure. We took up the sword -only, when compelled to the l’esor t, and laid it down finally when it had accomplished the purpose for which it was unsheathed. We were ready thereafter to trust to the ordina- ry operation of law for national security, and to leave the defense of our rights when assailed to the ballot-box and legislation. This was what gave the country reason for devout thankfulness in 1865 and 1866. The war was over, there were few revenge ful feelings at the North against the South. We were ready to exercise forbearance and to assist in building up the region devasta ted by war. Mr. Lincoln had only words of kindness and conciliation for the defeated followers-of Lee and Johnsbn, and the bit ter “ penalties of treason,” about which so much had been said in the first years of the war, were not in a single case applied. The South had no. political desires—scarcely any interest in politics. The people were think ing only of recovering their lost fortunes and repairing the ravages of war. It was a wretched evidence of lack o f statesmanship that a halting unsystematic plan of recon struction in a few years stirred these people up to angry discussion of their political rights and almost hopeless contest for hon est government. And now, ten years after the war is over, spite of the evident desire of the South for the peace which they were promised, a Republican Congressional cau cus declares!hat the only remedy for the “ disorder” which has followed the miserable reconstruction blunders, and the only hope for the party’s supremacy in the nation, are resort again to military law, the suspension of the writ of habeas corpus, and the relaga- tion of the South to the tender mercies of the military power of the President. The Bill the Republican caucus lately agreed up on “ for the better government of tho South ern States” empowers the President, “ in his discretion,” to, suspend the writ of habeas corpus in any State of the Union “ whenever in any State unlawful combinations shall be organized or attempted, and so numerous and powerful as to be able, by violence, to set at defiance or overturn any State autori fles.” What does this mean if it does not imply a military despotism over the whole South, if not over the whole nation, in the event of the desire of the President to exeicise it? Is it a suggestion of the end towards which our foreign critics in 1861 and since have said we were. tending! ? Has the country, indeed, returned to the sway of civil law, or are we to have another Secretary Stanton fulminating military judgments against all of enders against the Washington code of loyality ? Mr. Stanton may have well serv ed the country in the time of war, When we were sometimes ready to overlook the means so long as WO attained the ends. But is his the sort of exercise of authority which a free Republic will tolerate in times of profound peace ? If after the vrar the South had been left for two, three or five years under milita ry control, and allowed, undisturbed by political detractions, to purstiA its labor of recovery from the devastations c’ f the four years , it would not have complained. The even and just rule of military law would have been in better condition to-day if it,,had been imposed. But now, after ten yearo, with the States “ reconstructed,” the ballot- boxes restored and the remedies for disorder applicable and enforcibleby the civil courts to virtually declare martial law over the whole South, is to carry us back to 1865 again, and to prepare the way for a military- despotism over the whole country by estab lishing it first over a half on the pretense of a conservation of order. Is the Republi can party prepared for such a step ? Do the leaders in Congress expect to convince the T rvf r.ll l o r/X T * n n L /i PnTuil-ifinnn vinviT T r \-P intelligence of + the Republican party of the ^ necessity of so extreme a measure? The Constitution wisely limits the occasion, and restricts the power of the President to inter fere in the affairs of a State. Unbroken ex perience, as well as sound reason, proves the. value of these restrictions. The State is left to itself to settle its own internal difficulties, and only in the last resort, when a republi can form of government is in peril, or invas ion is imminent,' or domestic violence exists, is it within the province of the National Gov ernment to interfere, to “ guarantee” the one, and “ protect against the others, and then only on application of the Legislature, or of the Executive when the Legislature cannot be convened.” But by this Bill, to which tho Republican caucus pledges itself, nothing but “ the discretion” of the Presi dent is to stand between him and the estab lishment of martial law throughout the Un ion ! It makes him the practical Dictator of the nation, with all the State Legislatures and Governors at his feet. By such steps as these, despots mount to unlimited power. Is the Republican majority in Congress-pre pared to make smooth the road to military despotism in the once United States ? Will it adjourn leaving the country at the mercy of the “ discretion” of President Grant ? It would be easy enough to foment or manu facture “ unlawful combinations” wherever it was desired, and by Pall to make the habe as corpus a popular right known to the Southern people only as a thing of the past. There is a wiser Republican sentiment than that which could even consider such a Bill, among the people, if not in Congress. The Republican Party has not only been in the majority in the-country, but it has also included a large share of the intelligence, justice, conservatism, and patriotism ot the country. It is not a party to be led by its captains in any such direction as this caucus Bill points out. The passage of such a Bill by Congress would soon wipe out the whole Republican organization and consolidate all the thoughtful people of the country in an opposition which, spite of the extraordinary powers conferred on the President, would sweep everything before it in 1876, and again prove to the world that the United States are a Republic and not a military despotism, or likely to become one.
