Water being1 of tbe utmost importance to wounded meu, care should be taken, when be- fore tbe ette nay, not only tbat .the barrels at- tacked to tbe oonvayawM carts nare properly filled with good water, r suck other means as are commonly used in th country tor carrying it, should be procured and duly fi ted. 2. Bandages or rollers, applied on tbe field of battle are, iu general, o many things wasted, ai they become dirty-'un- d stiff, and are usually cut away and destroyed, without having been really useful ; they are therefore not forth-coin-ia- g when required, and would be of uo use. 2. Simple gunshot waundi require nothing more, for the first ttro or three days, than the application of a piece of wet or oiled Hnen, fastened on with a strip of sgfcking piaster, or if posftible, kept constantly wet aad cold with water. AVhea cold disagrees, warm water should be substituted. 4. Voeud made by swords, sabers or other cutting instruments, are to be treated principally by position. Thus, a cut down to tbe bone, acrocs tba thick part of tbe arm, immediately below the shoulder, ia to ba treated by raising the arm to or above right, angle with the body, ia which position it is to be retained, however inconvenient it may be. Ligatures may be in- serted, but through tbe skin only. If the throat be cut serosa In front, any great vessels should be ti3, and oosing stopped by a sponge. After a few hours, when the oozing is arrested, re- move tho sponge, and the head brought down toward the chest, and retained ia that jsition without ligatures ; if thU is done too ob, the sufferer may powibly be suffocated by tbe infil- tration of blool into tbe areolar tissue parts ad- jacent 5. If the cavity of tiw chest is opened into by a sword or lance, it is of the utmost importance that the wound in the skin should be effectively closed", and this can only be done by sewing it up as a Uilor or a lady would sew up a seam, skin only Being included ; a compress iist soould be applied over the st ekes, fastened on by stick- ing piaster. The patient is then to be placed on the wounded side, that .the lung may fall down, if it can, upon, or apply itself to the wounded pH, and adhere to it, by which happy and koit$llr iuciden: life may in all probability bepreserted. If the lung should be seen pro- truding in the wound, it should not be returned beyond the level of the ribs, but be covered over by the external parts. G. It is advisable to encourage previously tho discharge of blood fiora. the cavity of tha-ches- if any have fallen into it; bat if tbe bkeding from within should continue, so as to place the life of the sufftirer in danger the ex ernal wound should be clojed and events awaited. 7. When it is doubtful whether the bleeding proceeds from the cavity of tho chest, or from the intercostal artery (a surgieal bugbear.) an incision through the skin and the external inter- costal muscle will expose the artery close to tbe edge of the rib having the internal intercostal rcusel behind it. The vessel thus exposed may e.tted, r the eud pinched by the forceps, until it caases to Weed. Tying a string round the ribs is a destructive piece of cruelty, and the pings, etc., fonnerljr recommended, may be con- sidered as surgical incongruities. A gun-sh- ot wound in the chest cannot close by adhesion, and must remain open. The por- tion of the sufferer should therefore be that which is most comfortable to him. A small hole penetrating tho cavity is more dangerous than a large one, and the wound is lesi dangerous if tbe ball goes through the body. The wounds should ba examined, aud enlarged if necessary, in order to remove all extraneous substance, evan. if they should be seen to stick on tlte sur-fec- e of tho lungs ; the opening should be cover- ed with srt oikd or wet lint a bandage when acneable. Tbe ear nC tbe surgeon and the frShioscsWja Mrataable Eaasjaad ought al- ways tonsed : indetd, bo kp&y oT the chet can be scwutilically treated without them. 9.

If it cannot be passed, an opening should be made in the perinteum for ike evacuation of the urine, with as little delay as possible. 11. In tun-ah- fractures of the skull, the loose, broken pieees of boae, and all extraneous J substances are to be removed as soon as pwsiuw, and depreaseid fractures of bono are to be raised. A dees cat made bv a heavy sword Ihroucrk the bane, into the brain, generally causes a consid- - erabla depression ot too inner laow oi none, whilst tho ouler may appear to be merely di- vided. 1 2. An arm i rarely t be aranuiated, except from the effects of a cannon shot. The bead of tlM bone is to be sawn off. if neoessary. The elbow-joi- nt w to be cut onj, if destroyed, and the sufferer ia eitner cose, may nave a very usoiui arm. 13. In ease of gun-sh- fracture of the upper arm, iu which the bon isjuuch splintered, incis ' removal of all the ions are to be made, broken pieces whiclfliii feasible to take atvay. The elbow is to be supported. The forearm is to be treated in a swmilar manner ; the splints used should ba solid. 14. Tbe hand is never to be amputated, unless all or nearly all its ports are destroyed. Differ- ent bones of it and of the wrist to be removed when irrecoverably injured, with or without tho nudArenrnal bones tad fioeers or the Aarnb ; bat a thumb and ono finger should always be preeervd when possible 15.

The knue ioiut should be cut out whan ir recoverably injured ; but the limb is not to be amputated until ;t cannot bo avoiaeu. 17. A gun-sho- t fraeture of tho middle of the thih. attended bv treat sminterincr, is a case for amnutatiou. In leas difficult cases, ttio aslintor should be removed by incisions, par ticularly when they can be made on tbe uppet and outer side of the thigh.

Berhans. admissible, but if it should ag?ui spread, or its ceesaticm be doubtful, amputation should take place forthwith, altbougn uuaer ns favorable circumstances. Tbe mortification is becoming, or has become, constitutional. 23. Bleeding, to tbe loss of life, k not a com- mon occurrence in gunshot wounds, although-man- 3o Weed considerably, seldom, however, requiring the application ot a tourniquet as a matter of necessity, although frequently as one of precaution. 24. When tba great artery of the thigh is wounded (not torn across), the Lone being uu- - iured, the sufferer will probably bleed to death, unless aid be afforded, by maEing comprtiuii above, aud on the bleeding part. A long, but not broad stone, tied sharply On with a hanker-chie- f, will often suffico until assistance can be obtained, when both ends of the divided or wounded artery are to bo secured by ligatures. 25. Tho upper eud of tho great artery of tho thitrh bleeds scarlet blood, the lower end dark vcuous-colore- d blood; and this is not departed from iu a case of accidental injury umess mere have been nrcvious disease in the limb. A knowledge of this fait or circumstance, which continues lor several aayp, m piovuui upt- ake at tho moment of injury, and at. a subse- quent period, if secondary hajmorrhaga should occur. In 4he upper extremity both end3 of the principal artery bleed scarlet uiooa, trom.tno freo collateral circulation, and from tho anasto- moses in the hand. ai. From this cause, mortification rarely takes nlace after a wound of the principal artery of the arm, or even of the arm-pi- t. It frequently follows a wound of the principal artery in the under, middle, or oven lower parts of the thigh, rendering amputation necessary. 17. It is a creat Question, when tho bono Is uninjured, where and what part the .amputation should be pei formed. Signification of the foot aud leg, from snch a wound, is disposed to stop u little below tbe iiuee, u it snouia not uesixoy the sufferer : and tho opsration, if done in the first instauce, as soon as the tallowy or mottled aDDearanco of the foot is observed, should be done at that part ; the wound of tho artery, and tho operation for securing the vessel above and below tbe wound, being left unheeded. By this proceeding, when successful, tho knee-joi- nt is faveu, wmio an amputation aoovo mc miuuie ui the thigh is always doubtful in its result. 2S. When mortification has taken place from any cause, and nas oeen arrested oeiow me knee, and the dead parts show ome sign of sep- aration, it is usual to amputate above the knee. By not doing it, but by graduallyseparatingand removing the dead parts, under the use of disin fecting medicaments ana iresn air, a good stump mav be nltimatolv made, tho knee-joi- and life being preserved, which latter is frequently lest after amputating under such circumstances. 20. Hospital gangrene, when it unfortunately occurs, should be considered to be contagious and infectious, and is to be treated locally by destructive remedies, such as nitric acid, andihe bivouacing or encamping of th remainder of ho wound, it f. caa be enacted, oruneir removal to tho opeai&jr. 30. Pfulfices have been very often applied in gun-sh- ot wounds, from laziness, or to cover neg- lect, and should bo used as seldom as possible. 31. Chloroform may be administered in all cases of amputation of the upper extremityand below the knee, and iu all minor operations ; which cases m3y also be deferred, without dis- advantage, until the more serious operations are performed. Hi. Amputation ct tno upper ana miauie parts of the thigh are to be done as .soon as pos-- aiple after the receipt of tho injury. The ad- ministration of chloroform in them, wheELthere is much prostration, is doubjful, and mSst be attended to, and observed wifli great care. Tho question whether it should not be aamiuistered in such cases being undecided. 21. If tho vounir surrreon should not feel quito equal to the ready performance of the va rtous operations recommonded, many of them requiring great anatomical knowledge and man- ual dexterity (and ft is not to be expected that he should), he should avail himself of ovcry op- portunity which may offer of perfecting his knowledge. The surgery ot tbe JJntisb army snouia do at the liiibt of the surp-er- of tho metronolis. and the medical officers of that service should reco!- -' lect, that the elevation at which it has arrived has been on many points principally due to the labors of their predecessors, during the war in the Peninsula. It is expected, then, that they will not only correct any errors into which lheir predecessors may have fallen, but excel them by the additions theiroppcrtunities will permit them to make in th imnrommant of the W art-an- d A Fortunate KIkh. Iti the rnivTJfSrry of Uremia, in Sweden, lived a young student, a lovoly youth, with a "great love tor studios, but without the means of pur suing them, lie was poor and without connec- - twnp. btill be studied hard, lived in great pov- - e.-ty- , but keeping up a cheerful heart and try-ta- g not to look nt the future which looked so grimly at mm. 1I13 good humor and good qual- ities made him beloved by his younr com rades. Once he was playing with soma of them in the great square of Upsula, whiling away an hour of leisure, when the attention of the young men was arrested by a very young, elegant lady, who at the side of an elderly one, walked over the place. It was the daughter of the Gov- ernor of Upsula, and the lady was her governess. title was generally Known lor ber goodness aud gentleness of character, and was looked upon with admiration by tho students. As the young men now stood gazing on her, passing on like a graceful vision, one of them exclaimed : " Well, it would be worth something to have a kiss from such a month." The poor student, the hero of our story, who was looking intently on that pure and angelic lace, exclaimed, as if by inspiration : " Well, 1 tninlc 1 could have it." "What .'"cried all his friends, in a chorus, are craiy 1 Do yoa know her J" ' Not at all," he answered ; "but I think she would kiss me now if I asked her."

" Well, if she will cive von a kiss in tuat manner, I will irive you a thousand dollarsT'' exclaimed ono of the party. " And 1 ! And 1 J" cried three or four others; for it so happened that several rich youncr men were in the group, and bets ran high on sLTiin-probab- le an event ; and the challenge was made and received in loss time than we take to re late it. Our hero (my authority tells not whether ho wits handsome or plain ; I have my ideas for believing lie-- was rather plain, but singularly good looking at the sama time) our hero imme- diately walked off to the young lady, and said : "Mein Jrctdtitt, my fortune is ia your hands." blie looked at turn in astonishment, but arrested her steps. He proceeded to state his name and condition, his osDiration. and related simDlv and truly what had passed between him aud his companions. . The youne lady listened attentively, and when be had ceased to speak she said, blush-ingl- y, but with great sweetness, " if by so little a thing so much - good can be effected, it would be foolish in me to retuso your request;" and she kipeod tho young man publicly in the open square. ftext day the student was sent tor uy tne Grovernor. lie wanted to see the man who uarea to seek a kiss from his daughter in tbat way aad whom she had consented to kiss so. He received him with scrutinizing brow, but after an hour's conversation he was so pleased with him, that ho invited him to dine at his table during uis stav at Unsula. Oar voaner friend now pursued his studies in a manner which soon made him regarded as the most nromisinrr scholar in the University. Three years wero not passed after the day of the first kiss, when the young- - mm was allowed to give a second to tho daughter of the governor, as his intended bride. He becamo one of the greatest scholars in Sweden, as much rospected for his learning as for his character. His wo k will endure forever among tho works of scjonco, and from his happy union sDran;? a family well known in Sweden at the present day, and whoso wealth of fortune and position in society aro regarded as small things compared with their wealth of gooduos: and love. i rcdcrtlia isremer.

Every one, I think, experiences a sense of be- wilderment on first entering the bnilding, and an effort of analysis and classification of its contents seems boyoud tho reach of the raost pa- tient industry. 1 hirty acres of land, when used for farmers' purposes, is a quantity easily com- prehended, easily known how long it takes to plow and plant it ; but when such a number of acres is used to hold silks and laces, engines and Armstrong cannon, aad this quantity duplicated by galleries, it baeomes an incomprehensible magnitade The galleries of tha British and foreign schco's of painting contain many of the finest pictures in the world, and recall fo us tho most illustrious names of the art ; and tie grace- ful forms which marble has been matfo to as- sume assure us that the trick of the oarly Greeks is ss wed understood in our own tirao ts in that of Phidias. "Zarobia," by Hiss Hosmer, is a rare work, attracting much attention, and ol which its author and her American countrymen may well bo proud. This, with the Inevitable Eve, and one or two other statues hr Powers, constitutes the contribu'ion of American art. The industrial department devoted to tlte United States very poorly represents its iiech&nical skill. It had been much better if ouj country- men had not sent .ny tiling to the exhiiitio- -, for, notwithstanding the contributions nay bo the boat of their kind, yet the whole lepartment shows so meagerly, in contrast with tiosc of eth- er nations, tbat the result is not flittering to American pride. The efforts of single individu- als to place their works ia tks exhibition arc re- garded as the efforts of the Republic ; and, however creditable tfiese may be and are, it is sot to be expected' that unaided individual tft'ort would bo equal to such reprasentatioubf Ameri- can art and mcchanioal skill as would exclude damaging comparison.

Occasional. 1 he Capture of Gen. DlcCall. In our condensed narrative of the contest be fore5' Richmond, we have been nccesiitated to omit many interesting incidonts, amorg which is that of the capture of Major-Gener- McCall, the commander of tho reinforcement sent lo McClellan, and second to him in command. Tho Richmond Dispatch, in its account of Jia fight of Monday eveningsays : On "a hill, obliquely to the right of General Hill's advaute, was posted a battery of soma twelve pieces, which b.2d been twice captured during the afternoon by our forces nnrir Gen. Longstreet, but recaptured by tho enemj. This battory, the brigade of Gen. Fields red iced ia numbers and worn out with fatigue frosi their participation in every general engagement since Thursday was ordered to charge. With spirit and alacrity they responded to the order, aud with close rank and steady step they moved for- ward to its execution. In their approach, to the battery, they fired three or four rounds, atd then engaged the enemy with the bayonet. Here the struggle was bloody and determined, but after a most obstinate resistance, the enemy was, driven from .his pieces, and pressed back some two hun dred yards in a hand-to-han- d engagement. This chargo was mado by three regiments the47tb, 53d and GOth Virginia. Tho other brigades of tho division coming up to the support oflields, finding tha enemy routed, commenced cheering vociferously. The Federal General McCall, hearing this cheering, and mistaking the source from whence it came, rodo up and said, " Hurra, boys; I am glad you have held the battery. Hold on lor a short time aud reinforcements will bo up to sustain you !" He was accompanied by Major Biddle, his Major Williams, another aid and two couriers. SnspectiDg that ho had, perhaps, made a mistake, ho asked what regiment it was that held tho battery. An officer present replied, tho 47th Virginia. On obtaining tho information, Major Williams and Biddle and tho two couriers .wheeled about and endeavored to effect their es- cape. They were fired upon, and Major Biddlo shot through the head and killed instantly. The others, so far as is known, escaped without in-- ' jury. Hen.

From the ii From a gentleman who has just arrivoJ in our city from Louisiana, and who haa to go a great distance below to get over the river, we gather the following items : The Yankees have taken all the negro men be- longing to the plantations of Messrs. Joe and Jeff. Davis, Jama3v Lovell, Henderson, Searg-en- t, Cooms and Tucker. Those placss are on the river. At Mr. James' they showed themselves in their true light. On Tuesday the 1st inst., they landed at Mr. James' place and told lilm to have all his negroes oa the levoe next day for them or they would take him prisoder aud send him to Fort Jackson. To this Mr. James re- plied that the negroes were there, and if they could get them to go, he could not help himself. After the Yankoos went away he told his negroes what they had said, and toll them that all of tljom that wanted to go, to be on the levoe next morning. The next morning there was only four negroes on tho place, all having gone to tho woods, and when the Yankeescauft they wanted fo know where tho negroes were ; on being told by Mr. Jam js, they took him prisoner until the negroes were forthcoming; they kept him on their gunboat four days before the negroes wero found. Thsy then came, and not only took thirty-- five negroes from him, but also seventeen mulos, and soma of them broke opea his cellar and took all tu bacon, flour, sugar, rice, lard and many other things away with them, and there being a barrel ot molassos and a barrel of lamp oil, they pulled the spicket out of the barrels and let the contents flow on tbe floor. They then visited his dwelling house and demanded tbe do- - livery of all the silver ware in the house from his lady, who, in her alarm for the safety of her husband, gave up all sho had without a word. Ia the nouso they found ono erun, wbich they took with them, also all the foal on the place. This latter achievement was accomplished while they bad Air. James conn aod in a room where be could not see anything, not even being awaro of the depredation until they h&d released him, when ho was threatened that if ho told it so that they would heor of it again they would shell his house. The reason assigned by them for this ontrago was that Mr. James had two sons in our army, and that thoy intended to torment all persons, on the river who were in the army or had sons there. At the Davis places they not only took the negroes and mules, but they had set fire to the places, but the burning wa3 prevented by the neitrhbors after they had left. At Col. Geo. Lovell's place they took all the negroes and mules, and made the overseer, Air. (Joe, opou the dwelling, from which they took all the silver- ware they could find, and told the overseer that if there was anybody who wonld fire on them from tho different places on the river, that they would spell the houses in a tew hours alter. Jilr. Coe had heard of thoir coming, had taken all tho most valuable things and had them put in tho ground. Among them were the portraits of Gens. Quitman and Lovell, and President Divis. These aro safe. A colonel being in command, and Mr. Coe being auxious to know what they who replied, that they had given up the idea 0f taking Yicksburg; that tbe batteries there were tho worst they ever had to contend with : it was impossible to find their location, and that they no;v intend to cut a canal ovor the point oppo- site and leave her to dry up, and it was for this purpose they were taking all the negro men along the river. At Messrs. Henderson, Coons, Saargentand Tucker's plantations, they took every negro man, mule, horse, and all tho pro visions, poultry and silverware, with many valuable pictures, Messrs. Seargont end Coons have left their homes aud gone to the woods with their families. These planters are in a bad condition, having nobody to work their crops but a few negro women. Tho Yankees have also gone back from tho river in Louisiana as far as Tnllula Depot, a distance of twenty miles on the Yicks- burg, Shreveport and Texas railroad, and have taken all ilia, ncorn, imh f t- - 'Ur;':"" nionttitj rcute.

We saw yesterday, at tho office of Messrs. Blount &, Dawson, a negro man named Robert belonging to Mr. Francis M. Scarlett, of Glynn county, who has just returned from a visit to hi3 friends at Hilton Head, James Island and other Yankee localities. He ran away from his mas- ter's place, near Waynesville, March last, took a boat and went to St. Simon's Island. Ho discovered three gunboats off St. Simon's, one of which hailed him. H approached tho steamer, received from them a countersign. He was then told to go to another one of tho gunboats, and when hailed to give word " contraband." then approached tho steamer indicated the Pocahontas gave the countersign, was taken on board. He on board the Pocahontas eicht . . . .1- - .1 : 1 T 1 1 1 uays, uunug wiiicu uaie uo was Kepi steauiiy at wotk, scouring aecks, etc. While on board th gunboat, she attempted to go np the Atlsmal rivdrbnt was prevented from" going as far Darien in consequence of pilings, which they were unable to remove. While ou this trip she sent a boat with eight or nine men ashore to pro-ca-re fresh meat other pickings. The boat was into by Confederate pickets, killing three and wounding two others. The survivors immediately returned the Pocahontas, and fhe dead wero subsequently buried on St. Simon's Island. From tha Pocahontas he was transfefred to a steamer, the name of which ho does not remem-bo- a, and taken down on the Florida coast. Hero he was placed on board tho Wabash, and short- ly afterwards taken Port Royal. at tho last named place, ho worked on ths wharf in loading unloading Yankee steamers, for which he was promised Sd per month. He work- ed months but received pay for only one. He afterwards worked short time, a saw- mill, and received no pay. He was then em- ployed by Major White, of Massachusetts, as a body servant, The major promised to pay him $10 a month, but after repeated application for pay, stated that he had no money. He asked Robert how he would like go to Massachus- etts, who replied " very well," but says he had then determined come back koine as soon an opportunity offered. From Hilton Head Robert followed the Yan- kee troops to North Jisto, finally to James' Island. He remained on the last named1 island three weeks, during which time the battle of was fought. A few days after the battle he succeeded in eluding the Federal pick- ets, and passed into our lines. Hi wa3 subse- quently sent to Charleston and afterwards turned over his Blaster. Robert states thatf'tha Yankees are organizing companies of contrabands, at a place called "Fish nail" Hilton Head, and it is their intention to form into a regiment. s modus operandi by which the negroes are induced to enter tho service. Religious meetings are at stated periods, at which Rev. Mr. Wilson officiates. At these meetings an "enrolling officer" was present, who proceeded to take the names of tho able-bodie- d maa present. These were asked volunteer, and those who refused by far the greater nitn-be- r were forcibly sent to Fish Hall and mus- tered into service. Ha attended one meeting, which was addressed by colored brother from the North. A sentinel stood at the door (as was the invariable custom) while the colored brother L harangued his audience iu becalt of a church in Canada, and a forced contribution was taken up at the expense tho imprisoned contrabands. TJiid was tha la3t meeting Robert attended, and he reports that tha audience were at last ac- counts growing distressingly thin, the general impression being tbat their colored orator pock- eted tho money, and allowed tho church in Canada to look after itself. Robert Teports tha negroes on Hilton Head dissatisfied, and many of them anxious to escape. The island is clcssly guarded, and escape is impossible. A negro attempted to away, while ho was on the island, and wa3 shot. Tho privileges, ambare very cruelly treated, and on very slisrht they are closely confined and' al on brflad and water.

The business of tho city is entirely stagnant, although tbe importation of so many gunny bags would look as though tbe Yankees were expecting an abundance of cotton.

wounded meu, care should be taken, when be-

fore tbe ette nay, not only tbat .the barrels at-

tacked to tbe oonvayawM carts nare properlyfilled with good water, r suck other means asare commonly used in th country tor carryingit, should be procured and duly fi ted.

2. Bandages or rollers, applied on tbe field ofbattle are, iu general, o many things wasted,ai they become dirty-'un- d stiff, and are usuallycut away and destroyed, without having beenreally useful ; they are therefore not forth-coin-ia- g

when required, and would be of uo use.2. Simple gunshot waundi require nothing

more, for the first ttro or three days, than theapplication of a piece of wet or oiled Hnen,fastened on with a strip of sgfcking piaster, or ifposftible, kept constantly wet aad cold withwater. AVhea cold disagrees, warm water shouldbe substituted.

4. Voeud made by swords, sabers or othercutting instruments, are to be treated principallyby position. Thus, a cut down to tbe bone,acrocs tba thick part of tbe arm, immediatelybelow the shoulder, ia to ba treated by raisingthe arm to or above right, angle with the body,ia which position it is to be retained, howeverinconvenient it may be. Ligatures may be in-

serted, but through tbe skin only. If the throatbe cut serosa In front, any great vessels shouldbe ti3, and oosing stopped by a sponge. After

a few hours, when the oozing is arrested, re-

move tho sponge, and the head brought downtoward the chest, and retained ia that jsitionwithout ligatures ; if thU is done too ob, thesufferer may powibly be suffocated by tbe infil-

tration of blool into tbe areolar tissue parts ad-

jacent5. If the cavity of tiw chest is opened into by

a sword or lance, it is of the utmost importancethat the wound in the skin should be effectivelyclosed", and this can only be done by sewing itup as a Uilor or a lady would sew up a seam,skin only Being included ; a compress iist soouldbe applied over the st ekes, fastened on by stick-

ing piaster. The patient is then to be placedon the wounded side, that .the lung may falldown, if it can, upon, or apply itself to thewounded pH, and adhere to it, by which happyand koit$llr iuciden: life may in all probabilitybepreserted. If the lung should be seen pro-

truding in the wound, it should not be returnedbeyond the level of the ribs, but be covered overby the external parts.

G. It is advisable to encourage previously tho

discharge of blood fiora. the cavity of tha-ches-

if any have fallen into it; bat if tbe bkedingfrom within should continue, so as to place thelife of the sufftirer in danger the ex ernal woundshould be clojed and events awaited.

7. When it is doubtful whether the bleedingproceeds from the cavity of tho chest, or fromthe intercostal artery (a surgieal bugbear.) anincision through the skin and the external inter-

costal muscle will expose the artery close to tbeedge of the rib having the internal intercostalrcusel behind it. The vessel thus exposed may

sidered as surgical incongruities.A gun-sh- ot wound in the chest cannot close

by adhesion, and must remain open. The por-

tion of the sufferer should therefore be thatwhich is most comfortable to him. A small hole

penetrating tho cavity is more dangerous than alarge one, and the wound is lesi dangerous if tbeball goes through the body. The woundsshould ba examined, aud enlarged if necessary,

in order to remove all extraneous substance,evan. if they should be seen to stick on tlte sur-fec- e

of tho lungs ; the opening should be cover-

ed with srt oikd or wet lint a bandage whenacneable. Tbe ear nC tbe surgeon and thefrShioscsWja Mrataable Eaasjaad ought al-

ake at tho moment of injury, and at. a subse-

quent period, if secondary hajmorrhaga shouldoccur. In 4he upper extremity both end3 of theprincipal artery bleed scarlet uiooa, trom.tnofreo collateral circulation, and from tho anasto-

nlace after a wound of the principal artery of thearm, or even of the arm-pi- t.

It frequently follows a wound of the principalartery in the under, middle, or oven lower partsof the thigh, rendering amputation necessary.

17. It is a creat Question, when tho bono Isuninjured, where and what part the .amputationshould be pei formed. Signification of the footaud leg, from snch a wound, is disposed to stopu little below tbe iiuee, u it snouia not uesixoythe sufferer : and tho opsration, if done in thefirst instauce, as soon as the tallowy or mottledaDDearanco of the foot is observed, should bedone at that part ; the wound of tho artery, andtho operation for securing the vessel above andbelow tbe wound, being left unheeded. By thisproceeding, when successful, tho knee-joi- nt isfaveu, wmio an amputation aoovo mc miuuie uithe thigh is always doubtful in its result.

When mortification has taken place fromany cause, and nas oeen arrested oeiow meknee, and the dead parts show ome sign of sep-aration, it is usual to amputate above the knee.By not doing it, but by graduallyseparatingandremoving the dead parts, under the use of disinfecting medicaments ana iresn air, a good stumpmav be nltimatolv made, tho knee-joi- and lifebeing preserved, which latter is frequently lestafter amputating under such circumstances.

30. Pfulfices have been very often applied ingun-sh- ot wounds, from laziness, or to cover neg-

lect, and should bo used as seldom as possible.31. Chloroform may be administered in all

cases of amputation of the upper extremityandbelow the knee, and iu all minor operations ;

which cases m3y also be deferred, without dis-

advantage, until the more serious operations areperformed.

Hi. Amputation ct tno upper ana miauieparts of the thigh are to be done as .soon as pos--

A Fortunate KIkh.Iti the rnivTJfSrry of Uremia, in Sweden, lived

a young student, a lovoly youth, with a "greatlove tor studios, but without the means of pursuing them, lie was poor and without connec- -twnp. btill be studied hard, lived in great pov- -e.-ty-

, but keeping up a cheerful heart and try-ta- g

not to look nt the future which looked sogrimly at mm. 1I13 good humor and good qual-ities made him beloved by his younr comrades.

Once he was playing with soma of them inthe great square of Upsula, whiling away anhour of leisure, when the attention of the youngmen was arrested by a very young, elegantlady, who at the side of an elderly one, walkedover the place. It was the daughter of the Gov-ernor of Upsula, and the lady was her governess.title was generally Known lor ber goodness audgentleness of character, and was looked uponwith admiration by tho students. As the youngmen now stood gazing on her, passing on like agraceful vision, one of them exclaimed :

" Well, it would be worth something to havea kiss from such a month."

The poor student, the hero of our story, whowas looking intently on that pure and angeliclace, exclaimed, as if by inspiration :

" Well, 1 tninlc 1 could have it.""What .'"cried all his friends, in a chorus,

are craiy 1 Do yoa know her J"' Not at all," he answered ; "but I think she

would kiss me now if I asked her."What! in this place and 'before all our

" And 1 ! And 1 J" cried three or four others;for it so happened that several rich youncr menwere in the group, and bets ran high on sLTiin-probab- le

Our hero (my authority tells not whether howits handsome or plain ; I have my ideas forbelieving lie-- was rather plain, but singularlygood looking at the sama time) our hero imme-diately walked off to the young lady, and said :

"Mein Jrctdtitt, my fortune is ia your hands."blie looked at turn in astonishment, but arrestedher steps. He proceeded to state his name andcondition, his osDiration. and related simDlvand truly what had passed between him aud hiscompanions. .

The youne lady listened attentively, andwhen be had ceased to speak she said, blush-ingl- y,

but with great sweetness, " if by so littlea thing so much - good can be effected, it wouldbe foolish in me to retuso your request;" andshe kipeod tho young man publicly in the opensquare.

He receivedhim with scrutinizing brow, but after an hour'sconversation he was so pleased with him, thatho invited him to dine at his table during uisstav at Unsula.

omit many interesting incidonts, amorg whichis that of the capture of Major-Gener- McCall,the commander of tho reinforcement sent lo

Thisbattory, the brigade of Gen. Fields red iced ianumbers and worn out with fatigue frosi theirparticipation in every general engagement sinceThursday was ordered to charge. With spiritand alacrity they responded to the order, audwith close rank and steady step they moved for-

ward to its execution. In their approach, to thebattery, they fired three or four rounds, atd thenengaged the enemy with the bayonet. Here thestruggle was bloody and determined, but after amost obstinate resistance, the enemy was, drivenfrom .his pieces, and pressed back some two hundred yards in a hand-to-han- d engagement. Thischargo was mado by three regiments the47tb,53d and GOth Virginia.

Tho other brigades of tho division coming upto the support oflields, finding tha enemyrouted, commenced cheering vociferously.

Hirer.From the ii

From a gentleman who has just arrivoJ in ourcity from Louisiana, and who haa to go a greatdistance below to get over the river, we gatherthe following items :

The Yankees have taken all the negro men be-

longing to the plantations of Messrs. Joe andJeff. Davis, Jama3v Lovell, Henderson, Searg-en- t,

Cooms and Tucker. Those placss are onthe river. At Mr. James' they showed themselvesin their true light. On Tuesday the 1st inst.,they landed at Mr. James' place and told lilm tohave all his negroes oa the levoe next day forthem or they would take him prisoder aud sendhim to Fort Jackson. To this Mr. James re-

plied that the negroes were there, and if theycould get them to go, he could not help himself.After the Yankoos went away he told his negroeswhat they had said, and toll them that all oftljom that wanted to go, to be on the levoe nextmorning. The next morning there was only fournegroes on tho place, all having gone to thowoods, and when the Yankeescauft they wantedfo know where tho negroes were ; on being toldby Mr. Jam js, they took him prisoner until thenegroes were forthcoming; they kept him ontheir gunboat four days before the negroes werofound. Thsy then came, and not only took thirty--

five negroes from him, but also seventeenmulos, and soma of them broke opea his cellarand took all tu bacon, flour, sugar, rice, lard andmany other things away with them, and therebeing a barrel ot molassos and a barrel of lampoil, they pulled the spicket out of the barrels andlet the contents flow on tbe floor. They thenvisited his dwelling house and demanded tbe do- -livery of all the silver ware in the house fromhis lady, who, in her alarm for the safety of herhusband, gave up all sho had without a word.Ia the nouso they found ono erun, wbich theytook with them, also all the foal on the place.This latter achievement was accomplished whilethey bad Air. James conn aod in a room where becould not see anything, not even being awaro ofthe depredation until they h&d released him,when ho was threatened that if ho told it so thatthey would heor of it again they would shellhis house. The reason assigned by them forthis ontrago was that Mr. James had two sons inour army, and that thoy intended to torment allpersons, on the river who were in the army orhad sons there.

At the Davis places they not only took thenegroes and mules, but they had set fire to theplaces, but the burning wa3 prevented by theneitrhbors after they had left. At Col. Geo.Lovell's place they took all the negroes andmules, and made the overseer, Air. (Joe, opou thedwelling, from which they took all the silver-ware they could find, and told the overseer thatif there was anybody who wonld fire on themfrom tho different places on the river, that theywould spell the houses in a tew hours alter. Jilr.Coe had heard of thoir coming, had taken all thomost valuable things and had them put in thoground. Among them were the portraits ofGens. Quitman and Lovell, and President Divis.These aro safe. A colonel being in command,and Mr. Coe being auxious to know what they

who replied, that they had given up the idea 0ftaking Yicksburg; that tbe batteries there weretho worst they ever had to contend with : it wasimpossible to find their location, and that theyno;v intend to cut a canal ovor the point oppo-site and leave her to dry up, and it was for thispurpose they were taking all the negro menalong the river. At Messrs. Henderson, Coons,Saargentand Tucker's plantations, they tookevery negro man, mule, horse, and all tho provisions, poultry and silverware, with manyvaluable pictures, Messrs. Seargont end Coonshave left their homes aud gone to the woodswith their families.

These planters are in a bad condition, havingnobody to work their crops but a few negrowomen. Tho Yankees have also gone backfrom tho river in Louisiana as far as TnllulaDepot, a distance of twenty miles on the Yicks-burg, Shreveport and Texas railroad, and havetaken all ilia, ncorn, imh f t-- 'Ur;':""nionttitj rcute.

A Contrnbaual Hemmed from the Ynu-kce-

the Savnnnah News, 3fb.)

We saw yesterday, at tho office of Messrs.Blount &, Dawson, a negro man named Robertbelonging to Mr. Francis M. Scarlett, of Glynncounty, who has just returned from a visit to hi3friends at Hilton Head, James Island and otherYankee localities. He ran away from his mas-ter's place, near Waynesville, March last,took a boat and went to St. Simon's Island. Hodiscovered three gunboats off St. Simon's, one ofwhich hailed him. H approached tho steamer,

received from them a countersign. He wasthen told to go to another one of tho gunboats,and when hailed to give word " contraband."

then approached tho steamer indicated thePocahontas gave the countersign, wastaken on board.

He on board the Pocahontas eicht. . ..1- - .1 : 1 T 1 1 1uays, uunug wiiicu uaie uo was Kepi steauiiy at

wotk, scouring aecks, etc. While on board thgunboat, she attempted to go np the Atlsmalrivdrbnt was prevented from" going as farDarien in consequence of pilings, which theywere unable to remove. While ou this trip shesent a boat with eight or nine men ashore to pro-ca-re

fresh meat other pickings. The boatwas into by Confederate pickets, killingthree and wounding two others. The survivorsimmediately returned the Pocahontas, andfhe dead wero subsequently buried on St.Simon's Island.

From tha Pocahontas he was transfefred to asteamer, the name of which ho does not remem-bo- a,

and taken down on the Florida coast. Herohe was placed on board tho Wabash, and short-ly afterwards taken Port Royal. at tholast named place, ho worked on ths wharf inloading unloading Yankee steamers, forwhich he was promised Sd per month. He work-ed months but received pay for only one.He afterwards worked short time, a saw-mill, and received no pay. He was then em-

ployed by Major White, of Massachusetts, as abody servant, The major promised to pay him$10 a month, but after repeated applicationfor pay, stated that he had no money. He askedRobert how he would like go to Massachus-etts, who replied " very well," but says he hadthen determined come back koine as soonan opportunity offered.

From Hilton Head Robert followed the Yan-kee troops to North Jisto, finally to James'Island. He remained on the last named1 islandthree weeks, during which time the battle of

was fought. A few days after thebattle he succeeded in eluding the Federal pick-ets, and passed into our lines. Hi wa3 subse-quently sent to Charleston and afterwardsturned over his Blaster.

Robert states thatf'tha Yankees are organizingcompanies of contrabands, at a place called"Fish nail" Hilton Head, and it is theirintention to form into a regiment. s

modus operandi by which the negroesare induced to enter tho service. Religiousmeetings are at stated periods, at whichRev. Mr. Wilson officiates. At these meetingsan "enrolling officer" was present, whoproceeded to take the names of tho able-bodie- d

maa present. These were asked volunteer,and those who refused by far the greater nitn-be- r

were forcibly sent to Fish Hall and mus-tered into service. Ha attended one meeting,which was addressed by colored brother fromthe North. A sentinel stood at the door (as wasthe invariable custom) while the colored brother L

harangued his audience iu becalt of a church inCanada, and a forced contribution was taken upat the expense tho imprisoned contrabands.TJiid was tha la3t meeting Robert attended, andhe reports that tha audience were at last ac-

counts growing distressingly thin, the generalimpression being tbat their colored orator pock-

eted tho money, and allowed tho church inCanada to look after itself.

Robert Teports tha negroes on Hilton Headdissatisfied, and many of them anxious to escape.The island is clcssly guarded, and escape is

impossible. A negro attempted to away,while ho was on the island, and wa3 shot. Tho

privileges, ambare very cruelly treated, and onvery slisrht they are closely confinedand' al on brflad and water.

Eo5,erf8 experience has given him a very unimpression of tho 1 ankeedoodles gen- -

eraMy, and thoir military colony ou HiltonHead particularly. From his own report he hasgood reasons for preferring to Hvo in Dixie.

Tho bard of Twickenham, though very shertand deformed, was nevertheless very partial tohis person. One day ho asked Daan Swift whatpeople in Ireland thought ef him.

" They think." says the Dsan, " that yoa area groat poet and a very little inin.

A mechanic having taken a new apprentice,awoke him the first morning at a very early hourby calling out tbat the family were sitting' downto tha table. " Thank you," said, the boy, ashe turned over in bed to adjost htaaself for anew nap, " thank you, but I never eat anythingduring the night."

A surgeon aboard a ebip-of-w- ar ased to pre-scribe saltwater for his patients in all disorders.Having sailed one evening on a party of pleasure, ho happened, by some mucbanee, to bedrowned.

" Yes," answeredJack, after a turn of his quid, " he wag drownedlast night in his medicine chest."

Chandler, of Michigan, a prominent memberof the soap and tallow chandler family, is quitelively in thk branch of business, but devotesthe most of Lis immense capacities to tbe

poses upon the decency, good manners and pa-tience of the Senate as much as any man in it.

When talking, his face lights up very muchas an excruciated lobster does whea being boiledand he remindsrone of Clay or Wetwter, just asa hog suggests the idea ot a canary bird or anangel. His jestures are very graceful, aad eug-ge- s

The Pkaytme in allusioB to late news fromMexico says :

If the news circulated in this city and credit-ed by French and Spanish citizens, derived fromprivate letters, be reliable, tae rosea havewitathis small force succeeded ia entering the capi-tal. If this result has twn achieved by thecorps of Gan. Lorencez, of less thaa five thousand men, it is certainly a ortiitant exploit,which carries us bc.dk. to the days of the oldHidalgos, who, under Cortes, penetrated to thepalace ot the Montesamas and 9Ubjuga:ed thewhole kingdom with less than a thousand Spanish soldiers.

The business of tho city is entirely stagnant,although tbe importation of so many gunnybags would look as though tbe Yankees wereexpecting an abundance of cotton. Butler'sorgan gives the following account :

With the exception oNsoaie tow transactionsin the great staples, sugar and molasses, thingscommercial acd social are settling down intosummer lassitude and quietness. The great leveeand landings with the exception of some' fewvessels discharging and otheur. receiving sugarand molasses, with some rewMies 01 cottonpresent! a scene of dullness, gloominess anddismalness, never before witnessed in the mostdevastating ravages of sickness. A few drogh-

ers coma in daily and depait for the coast, bring-ing in some fow hogsheads of sugar and barrelsof molasses, carryintr. m return, some lew articles of provisions to meet the requirements ofthe almost ramishing plantations. At the greatsngar depot there are a few hogsheads on sale.A general desire is evinced on the part of planters and factors to meet tbe demand, particularlyas,roasy pladters ore entirely out of the neces-sary article, pork.
