This traveler was named George Seineimrt, and he had Just made a pleasure trip uroatul the world. The voyage began badly. Pujol's wife.

Was It not a precious era solation for his widow and mother to hat a coffin to cover w ith flowers and bathe in tears! in fact the will and testament ol the real Pujol, found in his trunk, left all the property to the beautiful Antoinette.

SURGEON AND PHYSICIAN. Dew the Use of Ana-xthrtlrs Hu Uslssd Ihe Chsrsrtrr of the Newer Profession. Tlie physician and surgeon are now sorts! equnls. and receive exactly the same pres fcssionql education; while manv grnenil prartitionersan- men of the highest attainments and skill, obtained from familiarity with the Protest! forms of disease. The universities now grant adcgrec in surgery, and tbe colleges of surgery hare ceased to exact apprenticeship In even the nominal form demanded thirty years ago. Surgeon*who have been made knights sr buroucU are quite as numerous u the member* of Ihe sister branch of physic siul the income* t-araed by the tqwrntorm aft~assundly a* iyge s» those enjoyed by the pre-scriIs-rs. But the surgeons hsee won the position they now occupy only by the brilliant advances which their art hat made, and by the skill and courage of a long line of practitioners. From Ambrose Parc, tbe barber who followed the armies of Francis], to John Hunter—who. as a Hunterian orator only lately remarked, more than any ..flier man hrlp<d to make surgeon* gentlemen—it a long -" jump. Yet even John Hunter was a rough and ready person compared with the tenant* of Harley street today. Those who remember Liston, Syme. and Chassaignac. Travers, Clive. Ferguson and Von Grafe, Hit- lAngenU-vks.and Aheraethy, and Astley Cuqs-r, Brudle. Bell and Guthrie, cannot hut wonder at the progress which the art. as known to those great men, has made within the last thirty years. Indeed. It has advanced more rapidly—or, at least, iu ermenl* are more obrious and spahlc—than has hern the ease with medicine. In which advance must nccesvirlly Is- tentative and discovery has to retain for a longer time iu tl.e hypothetical l««e. The surgeon dors not now use his knife » freely as his predecessor* did.

Autisejitic* have within the last twenty years reduced Uie mortality from operation* lo an extent which was seareely credited when Uster Introduced them.
