r" r DE. BENJAMIN TDSTEN. Tbe Ideal American Citizen, Patriot, Hero nud M?rtjrSuiscoii. (From the Independent Republican, Goshen, S. Y.) On ?he first day of July 1S06, was organized In the village of Goshen. "The Orange County Aledleal Society," composed ot twenty-two physicians residlog in tbe several townships ol tbe county. Consequently, tl>e next an nual meeting of this venerable society will be Us centennial convocation. An appropriate feature of its commemoration will be a recognition of tbe notable men of tbe profes sion who have graced tbe medical annals ol the county, particularly during the earlier period of its history. 1 have chosen as my subject of memoir Dr. Benjamin Tusten, who stands primus In distinction on tbe roll ol practitioners of tbe healing art Inclusive ol all the physicians and surgeous who have in any field, and at anv time, pursued that honored calling In Orauge County. From reliable data, 1 am able to present In this sketch the salient facts In the life history ol the eminent man whose Illustrious career a essay briefly to depict. Benjamiu Tusten was a native of Soutb old, L. I., where be was born, Dec. 11, 1"43. He was the only son of Benjamin Tusten, ? respectable farmer of that piace. His fatliei removed to Orange County in the year 1740. and settled on tbe banks of tbe Otterkill, two and a hall miles irom the village ol Goshen, on the highway leading lo Newburgb, via Wasblngtonvllie, on what is now the place occupied by Mrs. James A. Price. The sub ject ol our sketch was educated at an acade my In Jamaica, L. I., and at nlneteeu years ot age commenced the study ol medicine un der Dr. Thomas WlcKbam, of Goshen, whose standing as a physician was very high lu his day. Alter spending a year with L?r. Wlck ham he went to Newark, is'. J., and spent another year ander X)r. Bennet, and a third year In the office 01 l>r. Thomas Jones, 01 Worn V/Milr T r* 1 ho PWflimprt hmnft RLltl commenced practice iu oompeiitlou with Dr. Wlckham, Dr. Gale and Dr. Plerson, and soon perlormed several operation* In sur gery which gave him a high degree 01 celebrity. Dr. Tusteu was mild, modest, anu unassuming In his manners, pleasant to hit patients, and affable to a 1. , If the good which a man has done may be measured by the number ol lives which have been saved through his agency, It must bt admitted without dispute, that the greatest benefactor the world has known in any age. or In any vocation or rank whatever, was Dr. Jenner, tbe dlsooverer of the protective powei of cowpox against that once dreaded scourge, the smallpox, and tbe author of the practice of vaccination. The date ol that grand dis covery, which teuds to glorify alike so dis tinguished^ its author and the annals of the medical prolesslon In our era, was in the year 1798. Previous to this discovery of pre ventive method of averting the danger ol Belzure of the malady in question .on expos J ure to iu contagious hazards, such procedure | had never engaged the thoaght ol physicians. The problem which addressed liseil to tbe earnest, inquiring minds ol medical men J was this: nurna trial of feasible, raiiuuai method, whereby, perchance, the viruleuce and fatality of this loathsome disease, small pox, might be mitigated. With this object in view, the experiment was resorted to 01 innocuiaiion of toe virus of smallpox liseli into the systems of those who had nofpre vlously been exposed to the risks ot the malady, and might never be thus exposed. This certainly was a bold proposltiun, and naturally encountered a strong protest on tne part of the more conservative element of the community, lay and professional. But the wisdom of the experiment was vindicated by the salutary results of the philanthropic sug geetlon of ine practitioners ol medicine who exploited It, themselves Incurring all the dangers In commun with those whom tbfey sought to benefit In this procedure. To Dr. Benjamin Tusieu Is due the credit 01 Introduction of vaccination for modified smaupox id urange county. ?uis was m 1770, and for the purpose of prosecuting tilt worK tie hired four bouses, one lu Hampton burgb (then Oosben) ou tue banks oi thi Otterklll, near where he lived, another near btony Ford Bridge, a third at East Division, and the fourth on the little island near tbe I Cedar Swamp, in tbebe bouses ne lnnocu iated about eight nundred persons with sucti success as to entirely destroy tbe prejudice which had previously existed. He Kept toll houses two years, alter which mnocuiation could be performed in private houses. He oontlnued the practice of his profession wan success and deserved reputation until Ibt year 1775. In 1777 he was appointed Lieuten ant-Colonel of tne Goshen reegluient of mi litia, a'nd in 17JS he was appointed Surrogate of the county, wnlcb office he held at the lime of bis tragic death. In early Hi? be married MIbs Ann Brown, of Newark, N. J. They had Ave chlldien, as follow*: James, ben in 1770; Thomas, lu 1771; Catharine, In 1774; Sarab In 177C, and Abigail, in 177S. A large number of tne de scendants of Dr. Tusten have been represent ed in tbe families of Uosben and viciulty during a century and longer. In tbe discussions wblob culminated In the "War of the Kevolution Dr. Tusten took a' aotlve part. Hesitating at no sacrifice be marched with his neighbors in the pursuit ot tbe Indian Invaders in the western preciuci of our county and conspicuously participated In the memorable battle of Allnlslnk. The story, as a whole, of that sanguinary engage - . - - . , ? _ .Ul.?nn mem is so laminar iu iub uuiiouo w viku*,* (Jouuty as to Deed no rehearsal here aud now from ay pen. I shall limit what I have to say concerning the events of thai historic battle to Dr. Tus ten's participation and related connection with It alone. > What mortal tongue can describe or pen itly chronicle the heroism and lurtliudeoi * those gallant men who took part and tell In that bloody struggle on tue distant height* of Mlnlslok, after deeds of mighty vaior? They marched over hill and dale, through the pathless wilderness, 'neath a burning July son. They fought, they were outnum bered, aye, live to one. Alas ! they were con quered, but not until half their little band lay dead upon that blood stained field; not until they had accomplished a feat of arms whlcli will blaze forever on the pages of our 1 history. They were heroes, all. But the incompar able hero of those matchless American pa triots who fell in that deadly strife on that memorable day, was BeDjamln Tusten, Col and Doctor. After the ammunition was nearly gone, the day far spent, and the weak oordon of defense broken; in a word, when the inevitable of massacre or flight was reached In the fortunes of the day, then 11 was that Gen. Hathorn, chief In command, and with authority to speak, proclaimed these words: "Every man for hlmbelf and God for ub all." Bat what of the fate of the ~ wounded who sbou d remain prisoners in the bands of the merciless savages In that crisis of battle? Whiie yet the battle was raging, and before the alternative of massacre or flight bad cul minated in the conflict, Dr. Tusten bad gathered the wouDded In a sheltered place behind a cliff of rocks when the privileged retreat commenced. There were 17 disabled men under his care at the moment to whom be was ministering, and while thus engaged they all were attacked by the blood thirsty savages and with relentless cruelty every one perished under the tomahawk and scalplu*; knife of the merciless foe. Though the oppor lunuy wim iue oiuerM wuu uuu ueu available on the pari of Dr. Tusten, neverthe less he voluntarily remained at tae choseo post of service, performing with sell'-sacriUo log fidelity the humane offices of the ever dutiful and faithful good physician. Thus r died Dr. Benjamin Tusten, whose heroic de mise at the early age of thirty-six, with wounded men In bis charge, as described, renders him assuredly worthy of a tablet in the Hall ol Fame. I know ol no correspond ing example of martyrdom on the part of a surgeon In the annals of war. John H, Thompson, M. D. at. James's Plhce, Goehen, N. Y. TILLMAN'S, POWEK ABSO LUTE In South Carolina, Says n Prominent Baltimore Man. Washington Post. "So absolute is the power ot Senator Tillmah in the state of South Carolina that there is no doubt of the perman ency of his dispensary law." said S. S. Richards, a Baltimore business man, who ba9 just returned from a trip to that section and is at the New Wil lard. "The recent investigation of the sys tem, which was expected to reveal . many evils, was not a success in tbat sense, and there is no doubt that it is strongly entrenched. If there was a disposition to do away with it, the at titude of Senator Tilltuan, who is the father of it would retain it. The sena tor is immensly popular in the state, and the people I talked with there said he could have anything he want ed, and as loner as he wanted it. "His rugged honesty and picturesque personality have made him popular here, but in South Carolina they wor ship him. They look upon him as the greatest man of his state since Cal houn, and they are preparing to give him a rousing testimonial of their good will when they re-elect him to the senate next year. "It is a small wonder, then, that his liquor dispensary system should have met all storms of public criticism.

The splendid library of the late Rev. Dr. Robert Latbao, long known as in cluding one of the fioest private col lections of books to be found in the south, is no more. It was destroyed by fire on May 17tb. The facts were [recited by Rev. W. C. Ewart last Sun day morning in connection with a re quest for assistance for Rev. T. B. Stewart in whose possession the li brary was. Rev. Mr. Stewart married Dr. Lathan's eldest daughter, Miss Annie I., who died about three years ago. The library was a part of Mrs. Stewart's possessions. Mr. Stewart is pastor of Back Creek church in Meck lenburg county. The parsonage which bis family was occupying and which contained tne library, caught fire on the 17th and was burned with its con teuts. Practically nothing was saved. in mis coneciiou iLieje WCJC uuuiw, ousrare volumes, some of the booksJ being each one of a half dozen or le9s of some particular editiou known to exist. One particularly rare volume was Tarleton's Memoirs; but this was only one among many equally valu able. There were also scores of old un published manuscripts that the doctor had collected while searching for his torical and other material, and also a number of unpublished manuscripts of his owu. Aoioug these later man uscripts was a continuation of South Carolina from the war of the Revolu tion up to the civil war. Though the library was not for sale and would not have been sold at. any price, it was worth thousands of dollars in cash.? Yorkville Enquirer AFTER TEDDY NOW. Plot to Af)NflNHlDat?

A hawk was watching from a tree, With fierce and eager eye; A dog with head and tail in line, Was at a "stand" close by. And I, a man, God's noblest work (?)
