"WHAT was the largest fee ever paid to a physician 7" a frient asks. Doctors, as a rule, are very reticent about their fees; but there is a, story, probably authentic, says the New York Star, that Dr. Williard Parker was paid $100,000 for the successful removal of an execresence from the face and neck of the yon and heir of one of the wealthiest families in the vicinity of New York. Commodore Vanderbilt bequeathed $20,000 to one of his doctors, but millionaires seldom remember the physician in their wills, They leave that to be settled by the executors. Dr. Parker's fee, in the case alluded to, is probably the largest ever paid, in this country, at least,

IN the Queen's Bench Division, on the 23rd April, before Mr. Justice Denman and a special lury, the case of Dow, the London and North. Western Railway Company came on for hearing. The plaintiff, the widow of a Shanghai merchant, who kept an educational establish- ment at Finchley-rond. brought an action for. damages for personal injuries. The case for the plaintiff was that at Rugby the guard simply slammed the door, and it did not become perfectly fastened. When runding the Runcorn carve the plaintiff went to throw some. water out of the window, when the door flew "open and she fell out. The jury awarded the plaintiff £1,200, in addition to the claim for medical expenses, which brought the verdict up, to £1,368.

AMONG recent dicoveries, in metallurgy, the practical processes for the production of alumi- nium as an available article of commerce are recognized as of the highest consequence. The uses that may be made, in the arts, of this valuable metal, are known to be varied and important, and these uses are constantly being extended in new directions by ingenious experi- mete. The latest claim made in favor of alumi ninth is preferred by certain metal-workers in Louisville, Ky., who assert that, in combination with iron and copper, it makes the strongest metallic composition known to science. This wonderful product has far greater tensile strength than,the finest steel, is dactile, malleable and perfectly homogeneous in texture, so that it can be cast in masses without a flaw. Furthermore, it can be produced at very low cost, and will outwear the best iron or steel in any of the uses to which these metals are put,

THE "NANZING” BROKEN DOWN.

The steamship Nassing, Capt. R. Talbot, which left here for Manila, via Amoy, on Saturday last, the 24th inat, met with a rather serious accident between here and Amoy. She was spoken on Monday, about six miles off Rees | Island, by the steamer Hangchew, and reported having broken her shaft.

The Captain of the Hangchow offered to tow the disabled steater into Swatow for the snas of incla 5,000, but Captain Talbot refused this liberal offer-wing no doubt to the fact that Swatow affords no dock accommodation or

defects. engineering appliances to make good his vessel's

|

*

When spoken to, the Nassing was in no parti- cular danger, and there is a good anchorage in the vicinity; but owing to the stiff nor-caster that has been blowing for the past nine days, the steamer was practically helpless and could scarcely hope, without assistance, to reach Amoy. It is quite on the cards that Captain | Talbot may decide, as his best course, on re- turning to Hongkong.

The particular. nuisance complained of was that, caused by throwing the rabbish over, the Praya wall, by which the"drains became choked, resulting in the health of the neighbourhood being affected, He fully admitted that it was a nuisance that aught to be stopped, but it was doubtful if the offence came within the meaning of the words

When he came to deal with that aspect of the case the evidence shewed a grave state of things prevailing, and that by stopping one another danger was removed by the employment of these rubbish boats, over which there was in control, working as they did upon the principle ofthe quicker the discharge the greater the profit, "The whole question was one of considerable diffic ty, and he thought the best course to take now was to forward the depositions for the information of the Government, in order that anything might be done which should be deemd necessary upon the facts stated.

We extract the following from the last issue of the Arizona Kicker, which came out on a half- sheet

EXPLANATORY-We owe our readers an apology for the half-sheet we were obliged to Issue this week.

In this matter Mr. Francis, QC, (instructed, by Mes rs. Wotton & Deacon) moved ex parte on behalf of Samuel et al, for lenye to appeal against the judgment of Mr. Justice Wise. He assignee under a deed of arrangement executed said that the plaintiff brought an action, as by ene Benjamin, to recover $100 for the benefit of the creditors The defendants, Messrs. Samuel and Reuben, were brokers with whom Benjamin had bad dealings. At the end of August there was a balance in their hands of $1000 belonging to Benjamin, and they claimed to retain it, whereupon Perry, as official assignee, sued for its payment on behalf of the creditors.nl Some ime in August Perjamin found himself in difficulties, whilst a, share 'transaction with one Wai Muj Kai was pending. Seeing that he Samuel and Renben to try and sell the shares would not be able to carry it out, he instru ted

as he said, back to Wsi Mui Kai, and as 5 muet and Berjamin alleged, to anybody. They souled it for $1000 with Wai, and guaranteed payment out of money belonging to Benjamin which they expected to receive about the end of the month. Appelt at alleged that even if they ever had any authority to do so it was revoked before payment was made, and therefore they need not have paid the money. That issue was tried before Mr. Justice Wise, who decided in favor of Messrs. Samuel and Reuben. Perry therefore appealed, on the ground that there was no consideration given for the guarantee, and that any authority they might have had to given it was revoked in ample time. He (Mr. Francis) had seen the n tes of the case taken by, Mr. Justice Wise, and as they did not seem to him to be sufficiently voluminous be desired a re- bearing,

Mr. Justice Wise-They contain all the evi- dence I wanted.

Mr. Francis-Yes, but not enough' for 'our purposes.

Therefore, when Wanamaker's Friday demanded an apology, and took us by the ear to enforce obedience, we lit onto him with a weight of two tons, and had him hollering for mercy inside of two minutes. Before letting him up we took his gun away, and in some manner it was discharged, and the bullet went through the palm of our right hand. The wound will prevent our using the pen for some weeks, and we must dictate our copy.
