THE STEP DAUGHTER.

Perhaps ?V? in less dear
Than those who of iny life arc part?
This is the sin I fear;
And ereriu the dread to err,
My loving tho*c the best,
More gentle have I been , j her,
Perhaps tlmn all the rest.

That may lcbuko demand,
Ere I can speuk a hasty word,
Or lift n chiding hAnd,
An *ngel face comes <?iit:ng by
With look so sad and mild? I
voice tloats softly from the *ky?
"Wouldn't h*rm my orphan child!"
No?-witness ihou and nil nbore,

TlUI.lTIN'a THE C.iSK ACTIVELY. j
I jvvaso**^ sent for in great haste, to |
attend a gentleman of rocnn/?f?l?^'4"
whose wife, n lady intelligence and j
refinement, had discovered him in ,
his room, lying senseless upon the
floor.
On arriving at the house, I found i
Mrs. (i ,in great distress of mind. ,
'What is the matter with Mr. i
G V I asked, on meeting with 1
his'huly, who was in fears, and looked
the picture of distress.
41 am afraid it is apoplexy,' she replifjd.
*1 found him lying on the floor,
wh^jeJje had, to all appearance, fallen
?siiddehly from his chair. His ;
, facp is purple, and though he breathes i
it is with great difficulty-'
I went up to mv patient. He had i
been lifted from n?
...o uuor, ana was \
now lying upon the bed. Sure e-1
nough. his fare was purple, and his i
breatJiing labored, but somehow the
symptoms did not indicate apoplexy- 1
Every vein in his head and facr> was j
tinged and he lay perfectly stupid, j
but still I saw no clear indication of
an actual or approaching congestion
of the brain. ^!
'Hadn't he better be bled, doctor?'
asked the anxious wife.
'I don't know' t Ik* t that is necessary,'
i rcnliod ? -?
r., ilium ii wo let mm
alone, it will pass off in the course
of a few hours.'
'I don't think the case is so dangerous,
madam.'
'Apoplexy not dangerous!1
'! hardly think it apoplexy,' T replied.
'Pray, what do you think it is, doc'
tor ?'
Mrs. G looked anxiously into
mV (ace.
1 delicrtely hinted that he might
possibly have bee.* drinking loo much
brandy, but she positively and almost
indignantly objected.
'No, doctor, I ought to know about
that,' she said; 'depend upon it the
disease is more deeply seated ; I am
sure he had better be bled-, wont you
iw^d him, doctor? A few ounces of
/blood taken from his arm may give
life' to the now stagnant ^circulation
of blood in his veins.'
'Tjuis urged, after some reflection,
ordered a bowl and 1
?HU
bandage, and opening a vein from
which the blood flowed freely relieved
hint of about eight ounces of this
circulating medium.;? But he still lay
as insensible as before, much to the I
distress of his poov wife.11 '
"Something else must be do^e, docV)Ti
she urged, seeing that the bleeding
bad accomplished nothing. 'If
wiy hitsbarid is not quickly relieve ',
he must die.1
By this time several friends and (
relatives who had been ?ent for. ar- .
rived, and urged upon me the adoption
of some more active measures .
for restoring the sick man to consciousness.
One proposed mustard
blasters all over his body, another a I j
blister on his head, another bis im- ^
mersion in hot water. I suggested
that it might do well to use a stom- i
vcn pump. " " ;t< * ' - M
asked one of his
4rimds. f

'Impossible, doctor,1 said his wife.

'No harm will result from it, be as

But my woids did hot assure them
However, as I was firm in my reso
lution nol to do atv thing more fo
the patient until Dr. S came
they liad to submit. I wished to n)ak<
a call of importance in the neighbor
hood, and proposed going, to be bacl
by the time Dr. S arrived, bu
thefriem's of the sick man would no
suffer me to leave the room.
When Dr. S- came, we con
versed aside a few minutes, and
gave my views of the case, and sta
ted what I had done and whv hat
done it. We then proceeded to tin
bedside of our patient. There wer<
no signs of approaching conscious
nefs.
'Don't you th'nk his bend ouph
to be shaved and blisteredV aske<
the wile, anxiously.
Dr. S? thought a mement
and then said,
kYes, b\ all means. Send for i
barber, and also for a fresh fly bliste
four inches by nine.'
I looked into the face of Dr. S?
with surprise. He was perfect 1;
grave and earnest. I Irnted to bin
my doubt of the good that1 mode c
treatment would do. But lie spok
confidently of the result and said thn
it would not only cure the disease
but bo liable to take away the pre
disposition thereto, wil'li wh'vh Mi

I which arrived here on Saturday last,
came the negro man Marshall* a
' quiet, modest, unassuming person on
