Show Tweiuj Yfnrn on Trial, We sincerely hope that Dr. Brown- Sequard, of Loudon, und Dr. Hammond, i of Washington, are not playing upon ua j elderly gentlemen a practical joke, My 1 pretending that they can inject into our I shrunken veins the juices of rabbits and i guinea plgn. and thus give to our ad- vuncing ears the strength and vigor of : a renewed nnd buoyant youth. Even I the amount of twenty years taken from the threescore now attained would lie a j a most grateful fact, and, as we now view ihe project, we think we would wllllng-i wllllng-i ly submit lo ihe injected matter unless we felt it would seriously impair our j usefulness hereafter by imparting to us ' the nature of the pig and the counigo of ! the rabbit. Nor yet do we see why this j new leing might not be attended with great success, for. Indeed, we know j many men with all the Inntincts of Ihe I hog. nil ihe moral and mental deHcien- cles uf the ""bunnle," who have admirable admira-ble Hucceps hi life, At all events, we j will try one term of twenty years.
