,• "The Man with tue Brotien 'Ear." Translated
I ow the French of Edmund About, by Henry
• Holt. Leypoldt Holt, New York. According
to veracious chronicle before us, to which Wc .
have already briefly referred, Professor Johann
Meiser, deeply interested in physiological studies,
and especially occupied with the theory of desicca
tion. flourished in Panlzic during thu early' part of
this century'. Wrapped in the pursuit of science.
this violet -wigged naturalist had but one desire.
viz.: to try the experiment of desiccation upon a
human subject.. Rotiferi and various crawling
things had been dried up and laid away for a
number . of years, and on being subjected to
immersion, had again entered upon ,a mu, life.
The success of such processes, which, in terms
rather than in fact, suggest certain religious rites,
40 1 11 . 1tini to believe that a•human being 'might
with safety be submitted to similar tests.'
But how to obtain a subject was a considera
tion which seriously puzzled the worthy pro
fessor. How to satisfy so many quarts Of irate,
and so many quarts of clay that the dried-up out.
line of his elegant form would, on the proper oc
casion. receive its due moistening; how to con
vince the undesiccated and unwilling patient that
his emotions and reason were nothing but water,
and that if he would allow science for a while to
deprive him of their possession, science would,
in return,obligingly pump them into him again
these, it is readily Conceived, were prOblems not
so easily solved.
Could we but feel assured that to be dried Up,
and laid away would involve no danger of drying
up and blowing away, how many of us could
thus indulge in an' occasional vacation, and, to
use an Hibernicism, quit the world without
leaving it! How many of the nervous conser
rativeswould-like_to_step_ out _ the_ all-im
portant question of women's rights is being ad
justed! How many a poor devil would be willing
to be laid on a shelf until certain inheritances had
matured!—for rich uncles and aunts are always
tardy in keeping their engagernents with expec-
tant heirs. Nor can we easily overrate the ad-
vantoges of a system :which would allow the
worker of mischief to withdraw hiniself from the
scene of his misdeeds, only to return when the
lapse of yetirs had helped his victims to forget the
sufferings he had occasioned. We might instance
other cases in which a quasi sleep, unlike that of
Rip Van Winkle's, since it would not add to our
years, would be eagerly indulged in by dissatis
fied samples of humanity. But to return to' our
story.
In the winter of 1813, Colonel Fottqas, of the
GYunde Ann;e: while bearing an important mes-sage from Napoleon to General Rapp, fell into
the hands of the allied forces, "as he was trying
to pass the Vistula on the ice, while' on his way
to Dantzic." He was brought into camp as a
prisoner, and, with Mexipan despatch, sentenced
to be executed as a spy. In obedience
. to that
immutable law in nature, which prevents a tra-
gedy catastrophe' from coming in before the fifth
act, and which invariably leads the fuming
and ranting comedy-uncle to determine, that his
ward shall marry the man she does not desire,
lest the play should end too soon, Professor
Meiser found a subject in Colonel Fougas. While
- awaiting execution, the prisoner had been con
. fined in the tower of Liebenfeld,and when,on the
12th of November, the Professor called to bid the
Colonel a last farewell, he was informed that the
Frenchman was " frozen to death."
The Professor, however, soon satisfied himself
that the Colonel had only "fallen into that pro=
____fsLundandlethargie.sleerozhich- soperindifeeti
by intense cold, and which, if too prolonged,
slackens respiration and circulation to a point
whore the most delicate physiological tests are
necessary to discover the continuance. of life."
Without dwelling upon the casuistic considera
tions with which the Professor satisfied himself
as to the propriety of his course, suffice it to say
that he purchased the body of the Colonel for a
• trifle, and subjected it to the desiccation process,
with what iesult the following extract from his
last will and testament will show:
"I appoint as my executor my nephew, Melt.
olas Meiser, a wealthy brewer in the city of
Dentzie.
"I bequeath my books, papers and scientific
collections of all kinds, except item No. 3,712, to
my very estimable and learned friend, Herr von
Humboldt.
"I bequeath all the rest of my effects, real -and
personal. valued at 100,000 Prussian thalers, or
375,000 francs = to Colonel Pierre Victor Fougas,
at present desiccated, but living,
and entered, in
my catalogue opposite No. 3,712 (Zoology).
"I trust that he will accept this feeble compen
sation for the ordeals he has Undergone in my
laboratory. and the service he has rendered to
science."
Another clause constituted Nicholas Meiser his
legatee,. in the entirely unexpected event of a
failure.to resuscitate the Colonel.
The desiccated Fougas, incased in. three coffins,
and entered in the eatalvte, received but little
consideration at the hands of the brewer of
Dantile. A morbid dread of ghosts; and au aver
'siou to any . division of the rich inheritance,
moved the surviving Meiser to rid himself of No.
3,712 with all possible despatch. He inconti
nently sold it to' a rag merchant, and in 1859,
forty-six years after ,desiccation, M. Leon Re
_mull while on his return from the Ural mines,
purchased it in a junk-shop, in Berlin, in order
to present it to his father, who, being interested
in zoological studies, welcomed the gift with
genuine joy.
Space forbids us from entering into the details
of the revivification of the Colonel. Ills subse
sequentmeeting with Nicholas Meisel., his falling
iu love with his own granddaughter, and his re
markable interview with "that young man," Na
poleon the Third, furnish delicious passages
abounding in quiet as well as boisterous fun. M.
Abont's style is at times brilliant, at others for
cible, but always lively; .while, through all,
the most amusing feature is the quasi -scientific
tone which pertatdes the work.
Mr. Holt has paraphrased M. About's little
book in strong, idioniatic English, the graceful
periods of whi4, with rare exceptions, flow as
smoothly as those of the original, while his clever
dedicatory letter is almost a model in its wa .
"Bench and Bar," recently published by liar
per & Brother's professes to be "a complete digest
of the wit, humor, asperities and amenities of the
hiw;" and the compiler, Mr. L. J. Bigelow, in his
p reface, infonas his readers that the field "has been
faithfully gleaned." But when Ike- remark that,.
with the exception of one comparatively flat retort
of Mr. Ingraham's, there Se not a single specimen .
of the rare wit and humor for which the bar Of
Philadelphia has been pre-eminent for genera
tioust.it is unnecessary to add' that the author
has done his work very badly indeed. A volume
as large as this could easily have been compiled
from this field alone, which he has so strangely
neglected. Not to know Philadelphia as the
fetaittibitsadf - lqarWit - tua lefela — to argue
himself unknown; and Mr. Bigelowr should his
book ever reach a second edition, will do well to
repair the singular defect of the first, by adding
a due proportion of thefirrethw of the Pbilallel
phia bar to the material which be hf 6 laboriously
collected, but which is rather deficient in spiciness'
and point, in many of its anecdote:. For sale by

CITY BULLETIN.
A DIELI6IIIIIII. Titiver.—On Thursday, Dr.
' Schenck, the proprietor of the famous "Pulmonie
f3yrup," with characteristic liberality, gave a pie-
LC a t bis'elegant'cOiiii try scat on the Neshamony,
to his employes. The party numbered about ig
persons of both sexes, and the fete was lino of the
most delightful that could be imagined: The
weather was all that could be desired, and the
liberal host took good care that his guests should
have "a good time." Dr. Schenck's country-seat is
One of the most elegant in the vicinity of Philadel
phia. The mansion is built in the form of the
letter L, with a wide frontage. The whole of the
first story is surrounded by a piazza, upon which
will climb clematis and other shading vines. The
house is crowned by a tower 120 feet high, elabo
•rately ornamented, surmounted by an adaptation
of the Mansard roof, on the summit of' which is a
round house or obserVatory, bearing a flag-staff.
W,9,- 1 7extis,pu.potped. to the summit of thisAower to
ittippdtinMstie uses alit° tle available in case
of fire. In a separate building, some distance from
the house; is the gasTworki, where all the gas
consumed in the house and other buildings is
manufactured. There are all the apartments
necessary in a first-class country seat, including
a billiard room, which is rendered cool by being
immediately over the Ice house. A level lawn
sweeps away from the building and Merges into
an immense farm of 225 acres, divided into two
parts. The Doctor expects to garner 200 tons of
hay from theSe aeresthis summer. Dr. Schenck
makes a judicious and liberal use of the large
means which have rewarded his professional skill,
and his business tact, energy and - en rise.
NEW YORK ANI) LONG BILANCII.—WC would
call the attention of tourists, and the public gen
erally, to the advertisement of the Raritan and
Delaware Bay Railroad, which they will find in
another column. Parties visitingtNew York will
find it a very attractive way of reaching that city.
After a ride of sonic ninety runes in the cars,
passengers are transferred to swift and elegant
steamers, which afford a splendid sail of twenty
Miles,- showing—the—lower- bay, Sandy Hook,
and the entire harbor of New York,
with all its shipping and fortifications,
making a fine panorama, whose enjoyment is
enhanced by the lukury of a pure sea breeze that
completely destroys the feeling of dustiness and
fatigue which unavoidably accompanies a long
ride by rail at this season of the year. This road
also gives the- only direct method of reaching
Long Branch from this city, going through in
four„and a half hours without change of cars.
The rates of fare are very low, the cars new,
clean, well ventilated, and comfortable in every
way. The trains run with great o, and
the traveling community will find their wants
provided for in a very acceptable manner. •
