8 A Romnnoe of the Pestilence. Lnut yeur vclieu the epidemic wan inglug in Memphis, among tbo Cincinnati pliyot clnna who tondered tlielr services and lives to Health Oflloer Minor was young Dr. Collins, of this city, an unusually bright nnd Intellectual man, who was making ft preoarlous living at his practlco, not through lack of ability, for of that ho had abundance, but from tho lack of imtiouts. His sorvlooa, together with Ave others, were aoccpted, and on a certain evening they all wont to the Ohio and Mississippi railroad dopot to take the 0.80 train for the Bouth. Young Collins In taking leave of the health oillcer, who had gone down to see the little band off, said : " Doctor, I will either make a reputation In Memphis or never come home again." lie arrived in the city, and reported to the Howard association for duty, was given an Assign ment in a part of the town where the diseaBO was carrying people off by the scores. Among others that he attended was tho family of a wealthy planter, lie was suo--cessrul in bringing the children through the sickness, one of whom was a beautiful and intelligent young lady. Within a short time the doctor himself, worn down by uuceasiug labor, was smitten -with the scourge, and lay tossing feverishly in his small room. The young lady, hear iug of the circumstance, went to the house and nursed him teuderly through his ill uess. It is almost needless to say that by this time the youthful pair became mutually attached, a proposal and acceptance fol lowed, to which consent was unhesitatingly given by the parents. Thoy were after ward nianicd, tho father investing his new BOn-iu-law with n, handsome interest iu his large plantation. Dr. Collins is now oue of the rising youug physicians of Memphis, and is the ciliciout secretary of its board of health. Cincinnati Commercial-. A Cool Woman. The following incident of railroad travel is related by the Syracuse N. Y., Courier : "A r.iro instance of nerve and coolness under trj ing circumstances recently came to our knowledge. A few weeks ago two ; sisters were journeying over the Ceutral railroad, on route homeward to Albany 'from Colorado. They bolonged to a wealthy Albany family, and one of them, for whose health the journey to Colorado had been undertaken, was dying of consumption, anxious only to dio at home. The two sisters occupied a compartmont lu a draw iugroom car. Just before rcachiug Syra cuse tho consumptive's life went out, and the surviving sister who was attending her was left alone iu the compartmont with her sister's corpse. Sho was aware of a rule of tbo railroad company that, In case of death on the cars, the corpse must be removed from the cars at the first Btatiou thereafter. To avoid tho delay that this would entail, sho resolved to conceal all knowledge of her sister's death until they should roach Albany. To the frequent iuquirios made at the door of her compart ment of sympathizing fellow travelers, ns to her sister's condition, she gave evasive replies, as also she did to the train officials. She telegraphed at the first opportunity to her brother to moot her at Schenectady, not, however, mentioning that her sister was dead. He met her there ' with her sister's corpse. At Albany thoy called a hack and assistance to carry a ' very sick lady,' closely veiled. They drove to their residence and called an undertaker. That lady certainty showed nerve equal to the requirements of a battleOold." Laid Out Before Dead. Mrs. Herd I, wifo of an Allegheny brew er, had been paralyzed for some time. Last Thursday she grow worso, and during the afternoon died, as was believed by all. There was no apparent sign of life about the. body, and it seemed that she had en tirely ceased to breathe. Later in tho evening, wheu preparations were being made to lay the body out, it was thought some signs of life were noticed. A careful medical examination was made, and It was found that life had not been extinct at all. The signs of mourning about the house were quickly removed, and every effort made to strengthen the fluttering flame of life, but death would not be cheated thus, and about four o'clock Friday morning the physicians made a very careful examination and ascertained beyond a doubt that she ' was dead. The event created considerable excitement in the neighborhood. A Strange Meeting. The Nashville " American" says : While walking around the publio square yester day, Mis. Johnson, who is visiting here, her residence being in Pulaski, and Sam Owens accidentally met and recognized each other. They were married before the war and had been separated. Owens sug gested, " Let's kiss," but Mr. Jobuson, who just then came along, demurred " Oh, no, you don't kiss my wife." Owens said to her : "I have long thought you were dead, and have only recently re married." "And I have long thought you were dead," said Mrs. Johnson, " and 1 now have a house full of children." There was nothing more to be said after this, aud the parties went their respective ways.
