" 1 do not know the.t I ex-.u-tly n.vee with

"for we medical men, like e cry one else,
meet with ;i preut de.d th:it is eonimoiii,Ui.-e,
mid therefore imt worthy of lieiir:; reeotded ;
hut grant its tho jn'ivile jo of your novel

not that many of us could pivo you a ro

venture of my life ? "
" You never told me tiny of vour mlven.
tures," 1 replied ; hut if you liu. o a Klnry
to tell, you will iiml me nn ea;;er lislener."
" Very well then, as 1 have it few minutes
to spare, I will tell vou one more wildlv i-i-
nniutie, more ineioihhiy i t loarkahle, if 1 may
so t-pe.ik, th in you jirtjhahly ever found in
a worked' liction."
" I am all allention."
" Twenty.livo years npo," iufsued the
Doctor, " 1 entered the medical eollepo at
V as a student. 1 was then iiuiteyoiinp,
inexiierieueed, and inclined to lie timid and
senliiijeiiUd ; HiUl veil do I rttnemher the
horror I exeriem:od, when one of tjio sen
ior students, under iirctense of nhowinpme
the heaut'es of the institution, quickly thrust
mo into th.: di.-S-'el.inp-room, tunoiip "several
dead hodios, and closed the door upon me ;
nor do I forpct how my screeches of terror,
and prayers lor release from that awful
idace, made me the latyhing-stock of my
older eoinpanioiis.
" Hidieule is a hard thinp to hear ; the
coward heeoiues luavo lo escape it, and the
hrave niiin fears it more than he would a
helchiup cannon. 1 suffered from it till 1
could stand no more ; and wroupht up to a
pilch of desparation, J demanded to know
what 1 niipiit do to redeem my character,
and pain tin houorahle footinp amonp in v
fellow bludeltts.
li ' I will tell you,' oaid tun, his eyes ppark
linp with miachief ; 'if you will go al the
midnipht hour, and dip up a suhjeet.and take
it to your room and remain alone with it till
morninp, we will let you off, and never say
another word uhout your womanly fripht.'
" 1 shuddered. It was a fearful ullerna
tive, hut it seemed less ten ihle to sillier till
Ihe horro.ti that miphl he eoueentiatjjd into
a sinple nipht, tiian to hear, day alter day,
the jeers of my companions.
" ' Where shall I iro ? and when ? ' was my
timid inquiry ; and tin? very thoupht of such
an adventure made my blood run cold.
" ' To. thu Eastern ('emetery, to-nipht, al
twelve o'clock,' vf-plied piy torinentor, fixing
his keen, black yes upon me, und.allowinp
his tlwn lii's'to ciul with u smile of contempt.
' Hut what is the two of nskinp such a cow
ard us you to perform such a manly feat ?'
he added, dcridinply,
" His words stunp me to the quick and
without further rclloction.and soarcelyaware
of what I was savint'', I rejoined holdlv :
"' 1 am no eoxyard sir, as wil prove to
vou, bv porloriiimg what you call a manly
feiit.'
" ' You will go ? ' hp asked quickly.
" ' J will.' .
" ' Bravely Raid, my lad !' he rejoined, in a
tone of Approval, and oxchanpmp his ex
pression of contempt for one of surprise
and uihiiiration. ' Do this, Morris, and the
fu st man that insults yilU afterward makes
an ! omv ol me !
" Apatn 1 felt a cold fihnddor puss through
my Iranie at the thought ol what was bclore
me ; but I had ucceptcil his clmllenpe m the
presence oi many witnesses lor lli:s con
versation occurred as we were leavinp the
hall, nfier listeninp to an eveninp lecture
and I was resolved to nutke my word pood,
should it even cost me my life : in fact, 1
knew I could not do otherwise now, with
out tho risk of being driven in disgrace
from the college.
" I should here observe that iu those days
there were few professional resnrrection
isls ; and as it was absolutely necessary to
have subjecls for dissection, the unpleasant
busincfis of procuring them devolved upon
the students ; who, iu consequence, watch
ed every funeral eapei ly, and calculated the
chances of cheat inp the sexlon of his charge
and the prave of its victim.
" There had been a funeral that i:y of a
poor orphan pirl, who had been followed to
the prave by a very few friends ; and this
was considered a favorable chance for the
party whose turn it wns to procure the next
subject, as the prave of the poor and friend
less were never watched with the same keen
vigilance as those of the rich and influential.
Still, it vvas no tritling risk to exhume, the
bodies of tho poorest and humblest for
not unfrequenUy persons wero found on tho
watch even over these ; and only the year
before, one student, while at his midnipht
work, had been mortally wounded by a rifle
ball ; aud another, a month or two subse
quently, had been rendered cripple for life
by the Kune, mewis.
"-All this was explained to mo by n party
of ibix or eight, who accompanied me to my
room which was in a buildinp belonginp
to the college, and rented by apartments to
such of thestu louts as preferred bachelor's
hall to regular boarding ; and they took care
to add several terrifying stories of phosts
and hobgoblins by way of calming my ex
cited noi veti, j itist as I have before now ob
served old women stand around a weak, f'
verish patient, and croak out their experi
ence iu seeing awful sullerinps ttnd fati.i ter
minations of just such maladies ns the one
with which thcfi helpless victim was then
alllicted.
" ' Js it expected that I should po alone ?
I inquired, iu n tone that trembled in spite
of me, while my knees nhiiust knocked to
gether, and I felt as if my very lijm wero
white.
" ' Well, no,' replied Henson, iny most
dreaded torinentor j ' it would hardly bo fair
to send you alone, for one individual could
not succeed iu pelting tho hotly from the
grave quick enough j ami you, a mere youth,
without experience, would bo sure to fail
altogether. No, wo will po with you, some
three or four id' us, and help you dig up the.
corpse ; hilt then you must take it ou your
back, In inp it up to your room here, and
spend tho night ulono wilh it ! '
" It was some relief to me to find I was
to have company during the first part of my
uiKhrtakiiig, hut still I'l'clt far from npreea
ble, 1 assure you ; nml chancing to look into
a mirror as tho time drew near for setting
out, 1 fairly started it beholding theghHtly
object saw reflected therein,
' Come, boys,' said Henson, who was al
Aay8,by gonorul consent,tho lender (if lmt
evei l'rolio, expedition nr undertaking ho
was to have, a hund in i '-iCajua, boys, it is
time to be on the move. '& glorious night
for us 1' he added, throwing uj the wiudow,
'
and letting in a fierce gust of wind and rain;
' the very d 1 himself would hardly venture'
out in such a storm ! ' '
" lie lit a dark lantern, threw on his long
heavy cloak, took up a spade and led the
way down stairs ; and tho rest of us, three
besides my timid cell' threw on our cloaks
also, took each a spade ami followed him.
" We took a roundabout courae, to avoid
being seen by any citiin that might l
stirring ; nnd in something less than Itali
an hour we reached the cemetery, scaled
the wall without difficulty, and stealthily
searched for the prave till we found i'. in
Ihe pitchy darkness the wind and rain
sweeping past us wilh 'dismal howls and
moans, that to me, trembling with torro
seemed t be the uneartl.ly waitings of the
spirits of the damned.
" ' Here we are," whispered lter.son to me,
as we at length stopped at a mound of fresh
earth, over which one of our party had
stumbled. ' Come, feel around, Morris, and
strike in your space, anl let in see if you
will make as pood a hand at exlnuii'llg a
dead body as yon will some day at killing a
living ore v illi physic,'

The hearts of the people are the bulwarks
of a nation's safety, and the response which
the North has given to its country's call iu
a glorious vindication of its patriotism and
devotion. Hut beyond and almve that, it ii
a new demonstration ol
patriotism thrives best
the old theory that
iu tlio high places
of the eavlh upon the hills and mountains
and that a rugged climate pniduocs a har
dy aud military people.
None have been more astonished al flu
suddenly-developed military capacity and
strength of the Northern people than them
selves, and no Hlroiigor proof was ever of
fered that free labor is tho parent of the
lust armies. New Kngl.ind, the cradle of
muscle nnd nerve, and tho mother of em
piris iu the West, has well vindicated her
old renown, und yet she has not exhausted
a tithe of the surplus strength of her gran
ite hills, or theri liy slopped a spindle or a
watei wheel iu her hol ders.
Nevy York and I'ciuicy vania havo sent
their sons to bit1 lie by scores of thousands,
and yet commerce, or manufactures, or the
great iron or coal interests heed not their
absence.
Ohio and the Great AVcst havo sent nn
army, and yet their corn-fields smile with
plenty and their garners burst with foqd for
a world.
That the North, even handed, has nn ele
ment f strength, in the physical develop
ment of its people, growing out of it lii
nnite, il-- necessity of honorable labor aud
the self reliant, persistent character result
ing the rcfroin, moro formidable when arous
ed than the uuealenl.iling impetuosity pen
crated by a Southern sun, is everywhere
apparent,
This same peculiar character of tho North,
devoted, heretofore to tho "arts of peace,"
aggregated to itsell the capital necessary to
developo its military power, and bus n'l the
confidence in the Covernmeiit und its per3
peluiiy necessary hj b' 'ig out that capital
to the aid "f tho Coveriuiicnt. The recent
exhibition iu Wall street of tho borrowing
of live milliqus of dollars at a low rate of
interest in a single day, deinonsr;te;i both
tho ability uud disposition of our capitalists.
Another great resource of tho North ex3
ists in its vast morelumt marine, and tho
hardy class of men who servo it. We are
now just upon the threshold of a, necessity
for the incorpurittion of u largo portion of
this t leupuit into to our Navy as u volunteer
arm of that service, Tho facility with
which our merchant ships and our merchant
Reunion could be ndapted to our present
wants in tho enforcement of "'e blockade of
our coast, aud to co-operate with our regu
lar Navy, constitutes the chief value of this
arm of defence.
The f(,regoing are but a few of the most
