MT FIRST AKD LAST PATIENT. ’Twos in Iho year 18—, when having altoincd my twenty-third your, and received my degree nt the Cullcgo of Medicine at Paris, I bogon to look rather closely about to find a suitable place for mo to ‘hang out my shingle,’ nnd commence my profos* sionul career. At length 1 found a suite of rooms,Hint seemed to suit my wants exactly. There word very cbm do* dlous rooms at No. 47 Rue st. Marie, when, after some (rifling vexation, from want of knowledge in household afF.nr*, I finally managed to gel every thing in complete readiness to receive my first puticnl, whoever it might bo. My unpretending tin sign, on which was painted in mudest stylo, A do G ■ , M. D., appeared to attract little or no notice for eome time, and I began to bo quite impatient at not seeing s single person 'cross my threshold, nor even a footstep ontho stairs, except that of my faithful valet Juan. 1 had waited in this stale of Impatience and anx oty for about a month, when ono day, just as 1 had finished my dinner, 1 heard a hurried step upon the stairs. O 1 how my heart throbbed,my nervosquick coed, as 1 listened to Iho reply to Juan’s, ’Well Monsieur, what do you wish ?’ The interrogation was immediately answered in a deep manly voice. As I listened 1 hoard him say: ’ls Monsieur do G , the physician within 7’— Juan replied, ‘ho is, Monsieur this way,* and ho led the stranger in. As they advanced into my room, I arose to receive my visitor, who with a gentle, manly grace extended hia hand, ard with a dignified bow, addressed mo with on inquiring look, ‘Dr. G , 1 beliuve 7’ •The some, Monsieur. Have you business wtlli mo ?' I pointed to a chair, which ho politely declin ed, saying i ‘My business, Monsieur, Is of (ho utmost Impor tance. I have a dear friend taken suddenly ill; you being the nearest physician in tho vicinity, and having heard a very fluttering account of you from (ho Principal of Surgery, Mons. Caiot, I came hith er. Do ready on the instant to accompany me, (ho coach is st (he door,' 'You can drive on.l will bo (hero In five minutes;' I have to arrange my medicines,' 1 replied. Ho then prepared to depart, first presenting mo with Ills address. - 'IT Monsieur gives satisfaction in this instance, It may be ofgroat value to him in (ho future, and my Influence shall bo turned to your advantage;' (hen hastily crossing the apartment, ho withdrew. After he had retired, I turned Iho card over to see the address. Imagine my astonishment at be holding the words‘Duke do B—vlUo, N«. 8? Rue do Oulear.' Truly, (bought I, my fortune is made, If lam successful! What a remuneration for my patient wailing these twenty days I If felt greatly cheered at tho prospect before me, and at once sol about making my proportions for my first profes sional visit. 1 look several bottles from my pre scription case, and placed thorn In my porto medics, then hastily arranging my tuiletto, I hurried away to tho ptaoo designated on tho card. How many thousand thoughts rushed through my brain, as 1 quickly wended my way to tho place ! Anticipations of years—long, studious, (ailing, self* sacrificing, gollingyosrs woio now to bo realized in a degree. Now my labor,R seemed, was nut all spent in vain. 1 was at last to receive some little compensation Tor my long sought, dearly wrought knowledge. Feelings of pride and timidity, pleasure and pain, confidence and distrust, passed simulta neously through my mind, os I contemplated with pleasure and doubt my first undertaking in which I was to receive reward or oensuro. I soon reached (ho house, and ringing. I was ad mitted, and following a sweet little girl of 12, who conducted mo op two flights of marblo slops to a room, a knock at tho door of which was answered by Lolilioi, Mod'llc do E—villo’s chamber maid, I entered, and on one side of (ho room, which was beautiful In (ho extreme, beneath a dark purple 'em broiderod curtain, which entirely obstructed the rays of tho sun, and effectually concealed all appearances of its contents, lay s young and lovely Tomato about the ago of seventeen, with nil tho roundnosaof youth and freshness, but her cheeks worojnow flushed with the beautiful roseate tints accompanying lover, her eyes wore largo and glistening, her Ups bright red, and her color,constantly changing,made a being so lovely (hat 1 thought I had never seen puoh a beau tiful faeo before. A short, stifled moan, was alt that escaped her as I approached, and a beseeching look of almost nngolioawootnosa lit up her coimlo. nanoo oal informed her that 1 was hor physician, and quickly disappeared, leaving hor face calm and serene as on inland lake of a calm summor’s day. She was, as I.saw plainly, hbprlng under the Influ °- C .t °v. tt r°' fcr » which 1 soon after discovered to bo on (ho brain j tho case I know was a serious one, !.?. u J rod caution and skill, and 1 Honed that with a good degree of good nursing,-and groat *ll l . * u , ocecd ,n restoring her tq health eguln, not much mcdicloo was needed, except to “OUR OUNTRT—-MAY T ALWATB'B® HIfIHT—BUT RIOIITOR WRONG, OUR ODONTItt.* * CARLISLE, PA., THURSDAY, MARCH 16, 1854. allay tho feverish agitations and convulsions, which I readily did by administering narcotics. I gave morphine freely till (ho convulsions, shuddcrings, and wild ravings had abated in a measure, and then 1 applied myself to the task of relieving all her Wants und watching her constantly. She continued in this situation about twolvo days, without a Sha dow of returning reason, till at last I began to sco faint signs of consciousness. Mow I'watched each now symptom, and how eagerly I greeted each now sign of returning health and beauty, as day by day 1 she continued to improve in health, her eyes to renew (heir looks of softness, and their bright azure hue to return, tho deep scarlet of fever receiving in Its place the faint rosy hue so expressive of tho bloom of youth and health. Never docs beautiful woman look moro beautiful,or Jovolook lovelier, than when recovering from a severe illness—when tho mind has heed af* fcctcd so I hat tho senses have lost thoir sway—and as each feeling of nature returns, tho effect is pleas ing, bewitching in the extreme. So thought I, ns wearied with intense watching, I at last was glad dened with a sight of native beauty reassuring Its away, where but a short time since delirium and madness ran rampant. Fourteen days had now elapsed since the fever had commenced, and as she was gradually growing boiler, I thought il safe to leave her for a while to (ho care of her attendants, and seek that repose which I had*bccn robbed of so many nights, by con stant calls to assist hoc,- and as she was now out of danger, 1 deemed II a luxury to enjoy one entire night’s reel. I took my leave of her with this in tent, but vyhon 1 had disincurobcrcd myself of the clothing that I had not removed from my person for fourioen days,-nod throwing myself upon my bed, I saw how sadly I was disappointed. I could not .sloop. No sooner did I fall into a gentle nap than visions of beauty, of sickness, of loveliness implor ing of bright azure eyes gazing into my own. In fact everything that presented itself before mo that night had (ho form and appearance of Pauline do E—ville. Il was impossible even to obtain as much sleep as I had procured at tho house of my patient, when I was in momentary expecta tion of being called to aid io some matter that con. cornod my patient. In (his way I worried through the night, and found myself in tho morning instead of being recruited in spirits-, just the contrary. I. looked haggard, and my nerves were unstrung. I wus certain that if anything transpired to cause mo unu*uitl excitement, il would completely undo mo r or the day. In (his state of mind I visiledmy pa tient, ond found her In every respect much Improved, except the general debility incident on so severe and iongihy illness. As my eyes fell upan.lier’e that rooming, and witnessed the bright light illuminate them, as I complimented thorn upon her fine appear once, and tiro rapidity of her recovery. How boon lifal did her face appear os I look her hand in mine and expressed tiro pleasure it afforded mo of being near hor, and iho sorrow I should experience when she was convalescent, os it would deprive mo of her presence. At lifts she seemed somewhat displeased, and spoke rather quickly and with a voice that de noted anger. ‘Mons. de G —,’ said she, ‘I shall alwoys honor you as n kind and attentive physician and gentle man; but, if you have ony regard for my reelings, you will no longer intrude your flattering compli ments upon me, while in a state where it cannot bo resented with proper punishment. You can leave roe, Monsieur;’ and she turned hor head away and and burled it in (ho clothes.' Guilty and abashed, I withdrew from behind the curtains, and began furioualy-lo propafa to Wo med icines for her before talcing my leave, as nothing was now wanted os much as a row tonics to restore hor strength. I proposed giving hor small doses of Sulphate Quinine. Acting on this principle, I sot about preparing somo powders of Sulphate Qui nine, in tho doso of two grains every two hours, through the day, and at night I thought somo change might bo apparent, and I would-come again. I prepared the powders from a littlo 1 had with mo, and, giving some hasty directions concerning their administration, I suddenly look roy leave, in a state of mind anything but tranquillxcd at the late scones . I had passed through. Whnt strango fantasy should' Imvo seized mo and carried mo through, I know not. All that 1 con recollect is, that in taking out tho bullies from my can, about two hours after, I found the morphine gone. A thought flashed through my brain 5 I looked at the quinine—and, O! horror! It was un touched—-’twos just as I had procured iffrom tho manufacturer. Tho horrid reality forced itself upon me ! I hod given morphine instead of quinine— one half (ho dose I had given would be sufficient to produce death in a few hours! What was to bo done 7 In tho present state of mental excitement, I was totally unfit for anything; but something was to bo done Immediately. I seized my hot darted with almost the rapidity of lightning to (ho place whence 1 h«d just returned in such a stale of ex citement. 1 flow up to hor chamber, nearly upset ting, in my rapid passage, (ho chambermaid, page, and one or two other personages oflcss importance; and as I entered tho room, I saw by tho anxious faces of (ho friends who were present that my wursl anticipations wore painfully realized. I ashed a few hurried questions, to which they gave low sul len answers, and (ho wholo appearance of the family seemed to indicate (hat they were awaro of some* thing unusual having happened, and that (hero was something besides tho common indications of dis ease present In the still, deep sleeping being before them. Looking al tho clock, 1 found it would bo over two hours since 1 had loft the medicine, and direct ed it lo bo taken on the instant. If sho had token it as 1 hod ordered, she must have had it in her stomach near that length of time. Wo could do nothing. I informed the father of the cause of the trouble ; ho turned such a look at mo as I shall never forgot—mingled feedings of pity, scorn, con tempt, grief, rovengo, flashed In that brief instant from his eyes. I turned away, more like a man without his senses, than a reasonable, thinking man. I fail guilty, .VII our efforts to orouso her wore unavailing. I procured a stomach pump, but all to no parposo ; the stomach was by this time complete ly paralyzed. In half an hour at most life would bo czlinot ; and I—groat heavens! in a convict's colt, charged with the honioue crime of mordcr I A sudden thought seized mo and I pul it into execution on the instant.* Under the pretence of gelling some article* thnl might bo of some benefit, or afford lomo relief, I flow from the house, and, running as fast as my nervous feelings end the fear of being overtaken could urge mo, I stopped at my office again, then giving some directions whore ho might And mo in ono month, to Junn, I hastily packed up the most of my valuables, leaving the rest to tho core of Juan, and took tho earliest con* voyanoe to tho coast, from thonoo across tho straits to tho British Islo. I travelled all over tho United Kingdom, again visited tho continent, sauntering leisurely through-Italy, Spain and Holland, spent many years at the fashionable resorts of pleasure, seeking society in tho vain hopa of banishing tho remembrance of tho falql day ; but whorovor 1 go. in whatever situation 1 em placed, if I boo youth and beauty, I: think of Mad’llo do E—villo. And till my miserable llfo (made miserable on that bo. count, and by thoso circumstances,) is spent, I shall always romoinbor with hosier My First and Last Patient. Oriental Origin of a Highland Custom.— At a Jewish marriage 1 was standing, beside tho bride* groom when the brido inlorod; as sho cruised (ho threshold he stooped down and slipped oiT his shoo, and struck her with (ho hool oh tho napo of tho nook. lat nnco saw the Impression of tho passage' ofSorlpluro, respecting the transfer of tho shoo to auolHoc, in oaso tho brother in law did not exercise his privilege. Tho slipper in tho East being taken o(F in doors, is at hand to administer correction, and is hero uied in algn of tho obedience of the wife and of tho supremacy of the husband* The Highland custom Is to strike for 'good luck,* as they say, the bride with an old slipper.

Il was then explained that in the combinolinn of tho two powders lay tho luxury, end Ilia twelve white powders were quickly dissolved in water, and ns eagerly swallowed by his majesty, with a shriek that will bo remembered while Delhi is numbered with tho kingdom : (ho monarch roso, staggered, exploded, and in his full agonies screamed 'hold mo down.' Then, rushing from tho throne, fell pros tralo on (ho floor.

Sebastopol. Tho harbor of Sebastopol, which is a( (ho present time tho chief naval depot of (ho Russian fleets in tho Black Sea, is situated on the South-western coast of the peninsula of Crimea.'

The last traveller in that region, a French savant, writes as follows From tho summit of the mountain which wo have just described, this strange sea, which all writers describe as presenting the most dismal aspect, appeared to us like e splendid lake, glittering in the sunshine, with its blue waves gently breaking on the sands of the- softest beach.
