Richmond Hill 097-]y 59$ (1'58 The record will be found in the pages of Hyginus, a Greek writer, but it has been par- aphased by Archbishop Potter in his “Anti- quities of Greece," and similarly stated in a number of other works. The story may be told as follows. There was a law in force in ancient Athens by which women and slaves were prohibited from occupying themselves in the study or practice of physio. It hap- pened, however, that women often refused to have doctors of the opposite sex, and the sac- rifice of valuable lives was the unfortunate result. Among thOSe whose sympathetic zeal was awakened hereby was a young lady called Agnodicc, whose ingenuity devised, and and whose courage accomplished, a scheme for effecting a charge. She dressed herself in man‘s garments, and succeeded in passing through a course of medical studies under a profcsor named Herophilus, whose reputation was very great, if he is the Herophilus to whom the ancients ascribed various discov- cries in physiology and medicine. From her professor, Agnodicc acquired competent skill in healing art, and began to practice. To those of hcr own sex she privately communicated her secret, and by her ability gained so much influence that the women agreed with common consent to employ her. The gentlemen practitioners were naturally very irate at the less of their practice, and brought an accusation against their rival for leading people astray. Failing in their first attempt, they prosecuted her for breach of the law forbiding women to practice physic, and for encroaching upon their prerogatives. It was simply impossible for her to maintain her ground under such a charge, and there was every reason to expect a verdict ag :inst her. But help was at hand: for the ladies, especially the chief matrons of Athens, came into open court, and avowed before the judges of Areopagus that “ they were not husbands, but enemies, who were about to condemn the person to whom they (the matrons) were indebted for their lives.” This demonstration had more than an immediate effect; not only was Agnodice released, but the old law was repealed, monopoly was abolished, and a new law was made authorising free women to study and practice medicine. The parallel will have been present to the mind of every reader, and very few words need then fore be added. There is in our day, at the city proudly styling itself the“ Modern Athens, “ a regulation which pratically for- bids women to study and prictice medicine. Slaves are not associated women, because fortunately, the Chinese and Greek philoso- phies which gave them an equal place in so- ciety are cifete. Anyhow, the slaves have been emancipated, The Agnodice of this age have resorted to no ruse in order to secure the instructions of the grave professors; they have gone as women in the garb of women, they have knocked politely at the door, they have been allowed‘to state their case and to and to take a seat, andâ€"we can scarcely say little more. It is, however, known that they have not been allowed to remain to the end of their curriculum, and that, if they are to go unto the qualifications essential to regular practice, either they must go elsewhere or the law must be repealed. Public opinion seems to be increasingly favorable to these aspi- rants. Ladies‘ who have espoused their principles have demanded a fair hearing and a fair field for them ; so that we may see the women of England, like the old Athenian mat-rdfis insist upon the removal of obstacles out of the way of_thcse candidates for honor- able usefulness, and urge that, instead of being dealt with as offenders, they should be regarded as benefactors. Here the parallel stops; the verdict is not published, and the new law is not yet inscribed upon the books. â€"- The Queen A STORY ron MODERN ATHENS. It is curious how history repeats: itself, and how historical parallels extended even to petty details. Thus we have at present Miss ch-Blake and other ladies persever- ingly striving to throw open the medical cur- riculum at Edinburghâ€"the “ Modern Ath ens"â€"to lady aspirants to the medical pro- fessions. And so, some two thousand years ago and upwards, a strong-minded young woman named Agnodice, sustained by the sutfrages of Athenian matrons, battled with the exclusive regulations of the medical pro- fession by which ladies were excluded from the field and won a great victory, the renown of which has descended to our day. .â€"-It is said that one of the most powerful remedies for botts in horses, is a strong dc: coction of sage team, made vci‘y sweet.

SR. 497 “ Yes, sire, everywhere I” replied the coil- juror, with modest assurance. The Czaragaiu drew forth his watchâ€"it pointed to a few minutes past eight ; the same ratification had taken place in all those present, and in the clocks of the palace. The exploit was followed by others equally amusing and surprising. At the close of the performance the Czar, after having compli- mented Pernetti, brought back to his remem- brance that in the course of the evening’s amusements he had declared that such was the power of his art that he could penetrate everywhere. “ What!” exclaimed the Cmr, " could you penetrate even into this palace, were I to order all the doors to be closed and guard» ed ?" “ Into this palace, sire, 01' even into the apartment of your majesty, quite as easily as I could enter my own house,” said Pernetti. “ Tomorrow, at midday, I shall have the honor of presenting myself before your maâ€" jesty,” replied Pernetti, who bowed and withdrew. The Czar Alexander, having,r heard Per- nettimueh spoken of, was desirous of seeing him ; and one day it was announcedto the conjurer that he would have the honor ot giving representation of his magical powers at court, the hour fixed for him to make his appearance being 7 o’clock. A brilliant and numerous assembly of ladies and courtiers, presided over by the Czar, had met ; but the eonjurer was absent. ' Surprised and dis- pleased, the Czar pulled out his watch which indicated five minutes after seven. Pernetti had not only failed in being in wait ing, but he had caused the court to wait, and Alexander was not more patient than Louis XIV. A quarter of an hour had passed, half an hour, and 110 Per- netti! Messengers who had beenseen in search of him returned unsuccessful. The anger of the Czar, with dlificulty restrained, displayed itself in threatening exclamations. At length, after the lapse, of an hour, the door of the saloon opened, and the gentle- man of the chamber announced Pernetti, who presented himself with a. calm front, and ‘the‘serenity of one who had done nothing to reproach himself with. The Czar. how- ever, was greatly displeased; but l’ernetti assumed an air of'astonishment, and replied with the greatest coolness. ” Your majesty will pardon me. It was by the performance of this trick that 1 was desirous of making my first appearance beâ€" fore you. But I know how precious truth is at Court; it is at lea-st necessary that your watch should tell it to you, sir. If you con~ sult it now, you will fifid that it n arks the real time.” “Well, then,”vsaid the Czar, “at midday to-morrow I shall have ready in my closet the price of this evening’s amusementsâ€"one thousand rublesâ€"Come and get them. But I fcrwarn you that the doors shall be closed and carefully guarded.” The gentleman of the household followed the conjuror to make are that he quitted the palace; they accompanied him to his lodg- ings, and a number of police surrounded the dwelling 1" e :1 the moment he entered it. The palace was instantly closed, with posi- tive orders not to suffer, under any pretext whatever, anyone to enter, were he prince or valet, until the Czar himself should com- mand the doors to be opened. The Czar, pulling out his watch violently in order to confound what he considered piece of downright insolcuce, was completely amazed. The watch maked seven o’clock! In turn all the courticrs drew out their watches, which were found as usual, exactly regulated by that of the sovereign. Seven o’clock 1 indicated with a common accord all the watches and clocks of the palace. The art of the magician was at once manifest in this strange retrogression in the march of time. To anger succeeded astonishment and admiration. Perceiving that the Czar smiled, Pernetti thus addressed him : These orders were strictly enforced, confi- dential persons having watched their execu- tion. The exterior optnirigs to the palace were guarded by the soldiery. All the apâ€" proaches to the imperial apartments were pro- tected by high dignitaries, whom a simple professor of the art of legerdemaiu possessed no means of bribing. In short, for greater security, all the keys had been car- ried into the imperial cabinet. A few mo- ments previous to the hour fixed for Perâ€" netti’s interview with the Czar, the Chamber. lain on service brought to his majesty a dis- patch which-a messenger ihad handed him through an opening in the door. It was a report from the minister of police that Per- netti had not left home yet. “Well, then,” said Pcrnetti, “let your majesty dcign to look at your watch, and you will perceive that I am exact, and that it is just 7 o’clock.” ‘~Just so!" exclaimed tfie Czar, at the hight of exasperation. “Did n51: your majesty command my pljes- encg at 7 03210015 prccifsely '2” Aha! he has found odt the undertaking is impracticable, and he has abandoned fireb- served the Czar with a smile.

About the be- ginning of the present century a species of Ca1iostro,a rather superior kind of Wizard of the North, made his appearance at St. Peters- burg, and astonished the natives by his mar- vellous performances. His name was Per- netti, and his fame is yet retained in the memory of those who witnessed his unrivaled talents. A‘mi mrgile $66 hfiétfiefids' iiédr ~ AScmbmr’s for June.

The spectators of the various gat. s all de- clared that at ten o’clock, precisely, Pcl‘netti, whom they all perfectly recognized, passed through. Pornetti could not leave like an ordinary mortal ; it was necessary that he should crown his success in the Russian capital by something surpassing his previous cflorts ; therefore on the evening preceding the even- ing of the day fixed for his departure, he an- nounced that he should leave St. Petersburg the following; day, at ten o’clock in the morn. ing, and that he should quit by all the city gates at the same moment! Public curiosity was excited to the highest degree by this announcement. St. Petersburg at that time had fi‘tcen gates, which were encom- passed by a multitude eager to witness the marvelous departure. “I could do so, sire,” said Pcmetti; but far from Wishing to quit St. Pctersburg stealthin and mysteriously, I am derirous of quitting it in the most public manner posâ€" sible, by giving to the inhabitants of your capital astriking example of my magic-a1 power.” “ N0,” hastily observed the Czar; “ It and moreover," continued he, with a. smile, “I should vainly endeavor to keep you against your will.

Simultaneously with her the satelites get their share much in this fashion: ‘Miss A, don’t throw your eye about in this manner ; you’re always looking at the orchestra stalls.’ ‘ I don’t look at the stalls., ‘A good actress,’ resumes the stage manager, sen- tentiously, ‘is so enwrapped in her part that the world ends for her at those foot-lights.’ (Miss A pouts). ‘Miss B,’ goes on the stage manager, ‘pronounce four times over the word “harrowing,” which you just pronounced “arrowing.” ‘ H-h-h-arrowing, then, then,7 cries Miss B, fiercely ; ‘hut you’re always at me about something} ‘Miss C,’ proceeds the stage manager, imperturburba- hly, ‘ three times have I told you to assume an outraged expression when you are asked to betray your family for gold, and you don’t look outraged in the least.’ ‘I shall look outraged at the performance,’ answers Miss C.

One society has nearly 17,000 members and another 10,000. The income ofa single society is over a million and a half pounds. So great is the confidence oi the public in these enterprises that many of them have reduced the rate of interest to 4, and even 3 per cent. in order to check the influx of deposits which still come flowing in. Though the societies fre- quently loan large amounts on the security of mills and factories, yet they mainly do business with the working classes or with a class slightly superior to them in stat10n., In the northern counties they have proved l of great service to the working classes, by} encouraging the construction of small houses, ‘ thereby keeping ,the rents of that class of , dwellings at a moderate sum. l 01d Homblower was talking very big about being entirely ,a selfâ€"educated man.

There is ample room about an excellent access to it, and it lies almost midway between the premises of the chief parties interested. As proposed, the new dock will measure about four acres, and admit vessels at ordinary spring tides draw- ing 19 feet of water. The excavated ma- terials will be deposited so as to forma road- way to the Spittal, and also up to the south end of Berwick Bridge. The North-Eastern Railway Company have, we understand, agreed to form a branch line connecting their main line with the dock, and to erect coal stuiths at several of the berths in the dock. This will supply a want long felt to errist at the port of Berwiek, when vessels alter delivering their cargoes, had to take in ballast, and proceed to a coal port to loud coal. The harbor trustees, unlike many of their neighbors, are quite free of debt, hav- ing, since they built the North Pier at the cost of about £70,000, cleared off the whole of that sum. l VieeChaneello‘r Malins gave it decision lately which may form a valuable precedent in sales by auction. A medical man in Rugby bought an estate for £2,500, and only discovered afterwards that there were mortâ€" gages to the extent of £2,500, which he took with the land. It was submitted that this fact was mentioned by the auctioneer; but the Vice-Chancellor animadverted strongly on the piaetiee of refraining from publishing the conditions of sale until the last moment, amid the hubbub of an auction room. The contract is, therefore, to be cancelled, and defendant is ordered to pay the costs of the suit, as he had refused a compromise offered by the plaintiff. â€"A b‘cotch paper tells a good sfory ofa worthy minister, a famous story teller over the “flowing bowl," who had the misfortune to tumble out of his gig and break his leg.
