Of ragged flowers.

The Face a Record
The record of a man's moral and intellec
tual life is written in his face in such indeli
ble and striking lines that anybody tolerbly
well skilled in the science of physiogouly can
quickly and accurately measure subtle, un
seen character. There is an old maxim that
"blood tells," and it does reveal its gentle or
boorish, its virtuous or vicious nature in
physical movements of the body, and modes
of expression, and also. in prevailing and re.
lated ideas. So likewise character is perpe
tually struggling against the bonds of re
straint and pushing out into the broad day
light of actual recognitioc. By a careful re
ticence at the right time, and a sort of nega
tive habit of life, combined with a shrewd
management, a man may pass current for al
together more than his actual value. But
sooner or later the muscles of the face and
the speaking eye let out the secret of interi
or lite.
It is a great study, these human faces
looking up from the audience room, the so
vial circle, the street, dm car, beaming out
an effulgence of sympathy and wornness, or
frowning under the rigor of disappointment,
or flashing out contempt and defiance for the
source of their discomfort. The young man
who aspires to nothing higher than the char
acter of a universal bruiser, may forgbt that
his coarse passions are photographed upon
his face in such a manner as that all discern.

the first glance. We "cannot see ourselves

very much of the impudence and swager of
the multitude, which passes for genuine en

'an acquaintance than ago, occupation, ca
pacity and temper ; if you would inspect the
secret sources whence he draws support of
impulse.and comfort along life's toilsome and
dusty highway, look into his face and read
the whole elaborate story o f his siriv

_Romance and Matrimony -
The dull monotony of the town of Bunker
Bill, Virginia, as we learn froth the newspa
pers of that section was broken on Tuesday
by a little episode which threw impeach
'went, talk and eicitement completely into
the shade, and Clearly_ demonstratgd that
truth is oft-times stranger than fiction. The
facts are these : A young and rather pre
possessing lady residing in the neighborhood
of Bunker Hill, was - engaged to be warded'
to a gentleman living in Missouri. Tuesday
last was the day fixed .for the celebration of
the nuptiala. _ The bridegroom and his at
tendants had arrived. Monday evening
found a convivial party at the residence of
the bride's father—ationg the number, the
expectant bridegroom, his attendants and
several near relatives, together with the
youth and beauty of' the Surrounding coun
try. And there was present, also, as an in
vited guest, a former affianced and discarded
lover of the prospective bride. But there
was in this nothing strange. The hours, on
rosy wings, flew swiftly by. It Was'a
rie companie." The bridegrooM, in blissful
ignorance of 'breakers ahead' was gliding
smoothly and peacefully along in Fancy's
barque, counting the hours that intervened
between him and the consummation Of his
happiness. But alas! for fleeting hopes and
woman's fickleness. A change had come oer
the spirit of the blushing maiden's dreams—
of her who bad promised, on the morrow, to
become the partner of his joys and sorrows. '
tier heart wandered back to her first love.
What high tricks 'does Cupid sometimes
play !
It was near the 'witching hour of night,'
and the bridegroom: was there, the license
had been procured, the attendants were in
waiting, and everything in readiness for the
peifortnance of the nuptial rites on the fol-
owing morning. i u i w r
bride had changed her mind—an easy thing
for women to do. She had ,uddenly con
cluded not to give her hand to him who had
journeyed from the far West to claim it.—
Her determination was made public, and
there WEIEI a sensation in the assemblage.—
She said she would only wed the man of her
first love. Tears and entreaties finally pre
vailed, and the 'old gentlemen' in a relenting
mood gave her permission to reverse her
choice. She did it. We leave the reader to
judge of the feelings of die expectant bride.
groom when informed of the sudden turn af
fairs bad taken. It must have given his
faith in women a pretty heavy shock, to say
the least, but be must remember that there
is 'many a slip 'twixt the cup and lip,' and
that nothing is certain_except death.
The wedding came off in the Presbyterian
church on Tuesday, according to previous
arrangement, but it was like the play of Rich.
and 111, with Richard left out. There was
a change of partners. The discarded lover
was the bridegroom, and the bridegroom that
was to be, became a discarded lover. The
affair afforded much food for gossip and has
been the 'town talk' ever since.
The disappointed lover bore up under it
manfully. Instead of taking 'a cup of cold
pizen,' be took the first train for his western
home, preferring not to look into happiness
through another man's eyes.
A Very Old Lady
I recollect returniog from school one eve;
ning when a child, and finding myeelf, as I
entered the 'dooryard at home, in the midst
of a group of visitors, who were taking leave
of the family, a very old lady, in a black
scoop shovel' bonnet, was leaning on the
arm of her daughter, who was also an aged
woman. Several others were standing about
my own dear grandmother among the rest—
and all of them seemed to me old enough to
be the daughters of Methuselah.
I stood peering at them curiously, sun bon.
net in hand, when the very old lady came
slowly towards me.
glow old are you, little girl ?' she asked
'Six years old.'
'Are you? I was six years old a hundred
years ago.°
How I started and looked up wonderingly
under the deep black bonnet. She.amiled as'
she added, 'My dear child, I am a hundred
years older than yOtt are,' and as she kissed
my forehead, and laid her thin hand tenderly
on my bare head, I felt even then that it was
a benediction.
How honored we all felt' by her presence !
No one else was spoken of for a week; and
we children all felt that it would be very plea

It is only a few`Yeiud'aiiice *omen 'have
begun to lock to the practibe of medicine as
a profession; hut there are. already. consid.
erable nurubcin of educated capable female
physicians. 'lt is believed that there are

regularly ethiblifed female Physicians there
areiri New 'York, as rainy women :have ta
ken .up.the profession without having had
regular medical education:
Oppositien has been made, both - thii3
country and in England, to women practis
ing or studying medicine.. When Miss'
Nightingale undertook to prepare herself for
the education of nurses, there , was no insti
tution in England suited for l her. waits;- and
she bad to go to Germany' to study. In•
1856, Miss Meriton White applied - at four.
teen of the London medical institutions for
admit eance.to the benefice 'of their , instrne,
tion, but her request was refused by every
one of them, - though Several were legally'
bound by their charter to receive her. - Miss
Garret, soother English lady, obtained ad.
mittance to the.Apotheparies Bail, by legal
compulsion, having influence, and means suf.
&lent to secureister rights, bin was forced
to pay ten times the ordinary fees in order
to pass through the course of study:
A number of institutions for the ednea.
tion of nursee'have been established in Eng
land, one of the largest of -which is in Liier•
pool; it contains'sisty women. No . objee.
tion has evec been made to - women becoming
nurses; and it would seem that they should
ho equally fit to become physiziaus. In med
icine, as in nearly every other_ profession,
women hope had to contend' against Many
• des et a' e suoceedin_ in e • ire of them.
Their means of education have been inferior '
to those afforded to-man, and have been made
still worse by poor accommodations inefficient
inattuotors, and limited facilities for dissec
tion. Another great irapediment in their
way is the want of opportunities for associa
ting with other students and discussing diffi
cult points in their studies, which men can
always enjoy.
Women, having a personal ktrowledge of
their own organization, and thoroughly un.'
derstanding its workings and disorders ought,
if thoroughly educated, to be even better fit
ted to prescribe fur and cure diseases pecul
iar to their sex, than nieo, whiff must gather
all their evidence from hearsay, or from ex
ternal symptoms.
It is sometimes urged as an argument a
gainst women becoming physicians that they
have not enough nerve, and would fail in
performing dissections and surgical opera.
tions, or in treating serious cases. But it is
probable that - women well, trained. have as
much nerve as men. The female nurses in
the English hospitals assist during surgical
treatmeut as efficiently as men, and women
in this country have performed operations of
the severest kind with perfect success. Du
ring a very moving demonstration by Dr.
Wood, at Bellevue Hospital, at which thirty
five women and over eighty young men were
present, nearly a dozen of the latter had to
leave the room, but not one of the former
gave way. Every person 'who has had any
medical experience can recall cases where
women in the sick room have shown remark
able ability and coolness. In England, Bliss
W bite, afterwards an admirable physician,
first attracted attention ,by her skid in . set
ting a broken limb, and was advised by her
family physieian to study medicine.
Mediciee is perhaps the only profession in
which women have assumed a perfect egad
ity with weu. Their charges are the same,
and they have in general demanded all the
privileges and rights of male practitioners.

Hen. Wade and Back-Bone.,
Gen. James S. Briabin is„oontributing, a .
series of articles to the. Cincinnati' Gazette
entitled the 'Ben Wade Papers.' In
three the-General rtlaliut-the following eon
derning Mr. W.ade's first appearance in the:
'Uoited•Stafeit Senate, about 1861: -
'Senator Wade inaugurated the practice
ief setting up Northern backbone in the
Senate: Semi after taking his seat, the
ivituessied. one of those . ; scenes so common
iu the Seaatd in those days. A Southern
fire-eater made an attack on a Northern
Senator, and Wade was amazed • and dis•
gusted' at the cringing, cowardly way in
which the Northern men bore the taunts
and insults of the ha-headed - Southerner.
As no allusion'was made to himself or
Slate, Mr. Wade sat , still,. but when the .
Seciatg adjourned, he said openly, if ever
a Southern Senator insde each .an attack
upon him or his State while he sat on that
floor, he would brand him as a liar. This
coming to the ears of tle Southern taco,
Senator took occasion to pointedly Speak '
few deys,afterwards of Ohio and her peo
ple as negro thieves.' Instantlk Mr.' Wade
-sprang to his feet and pronounced the Ben ,
ator &liar Yrite. Southern Senators were
thunder-struck, and gathered around their
champion, while the Northern men grouped
about Wade. A:feeler was • put . ont, from
the Southern side, looking to., retraction,
but Mr., Wade retorted in peculiar style
and deintinded 'an apology for the instill
offered him and the 'people he represented.
The matter thus closed, and a fight was
*lied upon as certain. The next • day a
gentleman called on the Senator from Ohio,
and asked 'the usual questien flinching his
acknciwledgemegt of the ecide. e
am here,' he responded, 'in a- double
capacity. I represent the State of Ohio,
and Ire 'resent Ben Wade. As a Senator,
lam opposed to ue ; en. ae,
I recognize the code.' .
'My friend feels, aggrieved,' said the gen
tleman, 'at what you said in the Senate
yesterday, and will ask for an apology or
sat i-ifaetion.'
. . 1 .1 was, somewhat embarrassed/ contin
ued Senator Wade, 'by my positton yea

chamber. I now take this opportunity-4o
say what I then thought, and you will,, if
you 'please , repeat it. tour Medd is a
foul-mouthed old blackguard:
'Certainly, Senator Wltfloryou do not
wish me to convey such a message as that ?'
'Moat _undoubtedly I do; and will tell
you for your own benefit, this friend of
yours will never notice it. I will not be
asked for either retraction, explanation, or
a fight.
Next morning Mr. Wade came into the
Senate. and proceeding to his 'seat, &fiber
from under his coaF--
rt --- ely drew horn under his coat — tV - vo large
pistols, and, unlocking his desk laid them
inside: The Southern men looked on in
silence while the Northern members en
joyed to the fullest extent the fire-eater's
surprise at the proceeding/ of the plucky
Ohio Senator. No farther notice was taken
of the affair of the day before. Wade was
not challenged, but ever afterward treated
with the utmost politeness and considers.

Absurdity of Drinking
It hat; beeettie l a sort' ,of popular..--41 - most
Mitional=faith; that it is net possible to be
truly happy unless ytindtiolc. - Among cer ,
tale classes—and they are by no means ex
clusively the lowest—dtink is the beginning
and end of everything. The very name of
liquor is held to 'be synonymous with ern.
'ploynient, and the dearer the liquor • the
more it is prized and coveted. Yet every
man who is not a downright drunkard is well
aware that the pleasures of drinking are,
beyond a certain point, a mockery, a delusion
and'a snare. Put it to any one who has
stood half the , night at a bar or sat half the
- night - at - a -- olub - roorn - , drinking-kingand
bandying reckless talk; if the enjoyment of
such an evening has been anything like that
of a.few quiet hours spent at bows with-a
book or newspaper ? The evil influence of
tavern pleasure on the health is too obvious
to be denied by any one; and the illusory
nature of the pleasures themselves would be
undeniable also if the persons who indulge
'in them did not deceive themselves and put
the truth out of sight. Nobody ever brought
any good out of a drinking yet. It is
a short, feverish spasm of animated enjoy
went, which leaves nothing behind but mo
roseness, regret, bad temper, self-reproach
and headache.

Men who can tell the truth and look the
