The Good flirr of a Profession. Thousands of poople everywhere will acknowledge the justness ol the following tribute to a certain profes sional class: Th, Joinih/ Phyrinan.? 11c is hut a man; be pursues a science,founded on shifting sands; his work is largely experimental, and in many places he gropes in a more than twilight gloom. But to our ignorant hclpfeissness his limited knowledge seems 10 be the clear sight of a god, his slightest averment a thing to treasure i?p and consider carefully for its storo of truth, his decision an affair as immu table as the laws of the Universe. I f wo die, wo cling to his hand as we step into the dark river, while he is like the comforting rod and staff of the Scripture; if we live, we feel as through his determination an 1 b : cause of his effort. Not that we ignore, b / any means, the great and merciful Power.behind him; but wo recognize him as the agent of that Power, who has put into his hands, as it were, the issues of birth ami the grave. The doctor, jiV :d, seems to us un like all other men. He is i in person a I as a spirit. We send for him in our troubles; we go to him with our griev ances; we confess to him the ailm >nts we would hide from all the world; we no more try to "put the best foot for ward,' with him than wc won hi if ho were omniscient, for we are aw.ire that unless he sees us as we are, he can afford us no aid. He, indeed, and no other, is the "Tonib of Se crets." He is acquainted with the inner recesses of households, with the histories of tortured liveS; he knows over what homo peace broods; ::o knows where neglect and contention and abuso work havoc, hud where dark stains run in the bloo I from generation to generation, to reveal themselves somo day in foul fungus or dislraight brain. To all he brings a consolatiou of his own, a delicate sympathy, a promise of the wh ole that be has an assurance of best effort, ft sense that everything which .-kill aud8cicnce can do is being dune, and that the rest is only in the hands of God. And when we arc in the dreadful presence of some sickness whose un known issues touches upon the awful mysteries of death, who is there that comes into the room so like the com mander of the forces of light, scatter ing those of darkness, as tho family physician? Who seems, liko him, to bo the actual vicegerent of tho groat spirit of good, fighting the inroads of evil? IIow he labors, how, indefatig able he is, how be suffers w'ith'us, and wrestles with fate for us! He rises in tho dead of night, perhaps to walk through the furious storm perhaps to skate over fro/en rivers, perhaps to drive miles in biting wintry wind--. Light comes in with him, then, out of the thick darkness. In the morn ing he brings in the outside vigor of the healthy world. He is sure, to como and give us reassurance just when the sun is departing and taking all our little cheer with him as the dreadful night sets in again. And when the balance bangs so that a hair's weight may incline it cither way, up into the happy light or down into the dark region where all aban don hope, then he spends sleepless nights heside us, discards less serious matters, is away only on Hying visits, makes our woes hi j own, and mani fests on his errand of mercy all the devotion of love. And what motives are they that urge him to this sublime usefulness, thi.i work of suffering? It can be only the love of science and love of his fellow men that spur him to this heroic duly, to this unfailing sacrifice; and beyond his success from day to da)', the chief reward ho has is that his very work at onco refines enlarges his nature, and gives his soul all the time a stronger and nobler existence. Never, then, can we pay or attempt to pay a good family physician the obligation of gntitude that we owe him. Tilden and Ewing. Tilden has undoubted and uncom promising strength among the people, lie is stronger to-day among the mas ses of the people, two to one, than ho is among tho poff'idatis. We doubt whither any aspirant could beat him in Kentucky, and, if Robinson carries New York in November, all tho poli ticians on earth couldn't beat bini for the first placo on the ticket in 1880 And, if Ewing lilts Ohio out of the Radical ruts, tho ticket ought to, will be and. shall be, Tilden and Ewing.?
