Three men ; erre immediately dispatched for surgical aid, mid a number of the faculty were ou the spot in a law minutes.

His humortal soul tinted to the inausion of rest, and left in its now mouldering duo, the index to a mind alive to every amiable and dignitii it recline of human native, and a heat t glowing with I tttttt anity and patriotism. There can be 110 possible reason dtvinctl for promoting the monster to so foul a -tier, but the satiating of a fiend use. liguity.
