A negro child got a grain oi corn ia his windpipe which produced greut suffering. One of the physician* above referred to was sent for, but was unable to afford relief, finally ht concluded to cut into the child's throat and take the grain out, »n»l invited his brother physician to assist him. They went over to the house of a neighbor near where the negro lived to npend the night, expecting to perform the delicate and difficult operation the next morning. The parents of the child became greatly alarmed when told that the doctors intended to cut the child's throat, and pent for an olu colored root and hero doctor in the neighborhood, and employed him to save their offspring from such a fate. "Uimme a rope," said the old man of and herba, and being supplied with a plow line which the father took from tho gears that hung up in the wagon shed, be quietly took the afflicted child from the bed, fastened the rope around hia feet and swung him ■p to the joista. Then, in the awful stillneaa of that night, and while the phyßclans in a neighboring house were holding a midnight consultation aa to how the next day's difficult operation was to be M performed, an J speculating upon its possible results to the science of medicine first, and the negro boy after wards, the old man, holding one hand on the suspended boys mouth, with the other punched him in the itomaoh. The boy coughed, and out came the grain of corar * " They htd to hide the root doctor tai the shucks up on the "loft" to keep the physicians from eatting hit throat, the next morning, when they went there and found their subject sitting in the door munching % pieee of pone.—Charlotte OAsereer. MPVMNCIIKT lOWN, Some time since one of the brightest and wittiest of Cincinnatii's girls weut abroad,.and when she returned home, about the first person to congratulate her on her sale return was B——, a young blood of the city, whose dollars exceeded bi» sense in the ratio of about a million to one. . - 'Aw, Miss X——/ he said, -permit me to greet you. 1 know you have had a very pleasant trip abroad 1' •Yes,' she answered, 'very pleasant in deed. 1 wee alt over the continent aud through England, Scotland aud Ire 'Ah, in IrefciNlf aud did you see the Blarney stoneP ♦Yes.

'I know, but I have not done eo, but why shouldn't I kiss it by proxy ? You linve been there-and kissed it, why shonld 1 not take the Influence ol the Blarney from your hps?'—and the smart Altck stepped lor ward to proxify the young lady. But she drew buck aud looking bku in the face, said: 'I beg your pardon, my dear Mr. B—, nut 1 aat upon the Blarney atone.' Like a man with great sorrow, B , sank down in a heap, aud be basu't said 'lreland' since, and the very word 'Blar* ney' makes him delirious. weniNasrHMi in fiiuml. rjsiA, There are about forty female physicians fo Philadelphia iu full practice, at least ten artists (painters}, aud one sculptor, Miss Blanche Neviu, lately selected by the State to execute the statue iu marble «t Mnblenberg.
