Honored and renowned as this noble institution is, however, it has never been revealed in the fulness of its glory until now. In the dark and trying crisis which has ust arisen, when the majesty of the law is violently defied and when maddened mobs are giving rein to their brutal passions in some of our largest cities; when the vast machinery of our commerce is unhinged, and when the safety of, society itself seems to be in deadly peril, the citizen-soldiery of Pennsylvania looms up with a large and fascinating grandeur to ally unprecedented in the history of human heroism.

The behavior of these godlike men, on the occasion of the wounding of one of their comrades by the rioters, ought to be and will be handed down to oosterity. Their majestic advance upon the arsenal in search of shelter from the infuriated mob, their wild and hysterical fright when the United States soldiers refused to let them in, and the fine presence of mind they displayed in abandoning their wounded comrade to the fury of the mob, will live in the grateful memory of the nation as long vites the attention of consignors of produce to the fact that he Is at all times prepared to When we reached the United States arsenal we were refused admission by Maj.

At twenty-eight street the head of the column, composed of the Weccacoe legion and the Washington grays, found themselves confronted by a mob about two thousand strong, while on the hill some four hundred feet high, that faced the riglit of the column, there were ranged an immense at least ten thousand strong. On the brow of the hill were stationed detachments of the 14th and 18th Pennsylvaia regiments (Pittsburg troops), and immediately above the railroad two pieces of Hutchinson's Pittsburgh battery, Sheriff Fife after in vain endeavoring to serve his writs, read the riot act, at which the mob jeered and groaned, whereupon the sheriff and his deputies and Mr. Bassatt and Mr. Pitcairn retired in profound disgust. The troops were then deployed for the purpose of sweeping the mob from the tracks, the grays and Weccacoe legion facing the two thousand or more strikers that occupied the tracks.

The cry arose from the mob: "Stick to it; give it to them don't fall back 1" and the men behind the coal cars began discharge pistols at the soldiers from under and between the cars, while the crowd in front began heaving rocks, with which i a number of the soldiers were hit, and Sergt. Barnad, of the Weccacoe legion, seriously wounded. The firing by the troops then began.

There was no order given for it. It began with the discharge of a single musket and was immediately followed by an almost simultaneous discharge from front and rear, right and left of the brigade. The fighting lasted about ten minutes, men continually dropping in the fast retreating mob. It was at this time that the Pittsburgh troops threw down their arms and fraternized with the strikers, Hutchinson's battery and a cavalry company alone excepted. Within five minutes after the firing ceased the mob was back again, but refrained for a while from further assults upon the Philadel- phians, and therefore there was no more firing upon them.

"It was the most persistent mob," "said Lieut. Elliot "I ever saw." The brigade remained on the field of battle until 6 o'clock, when they were ordered by Gen. Pearson, back to the round house, adjoining which is a building in which was stationed the Second brigade. Tf. wo a fliia rofroof fTinfc vna flu errant Agenta.

Of course the times must affect practice. The doctor is as often a luxury a as a necessity. It is nothing to call him in for a headache when money is plen ty.

His society may bo worth the price of his visit when little is ailing. But when the days of economy are upon us he suffers next to the church. Then comes the trust in nature worthy of a better cause, or wretched make-shifts, the taking of neighborly advice, the duplication of old prescriptions, the consultation of the drug-store man, or the experiment with nostrums. Then comes the counting of visits, also, and goes the smile at his too frequent entrance, the 'letting him know if and, worse than all, the nonpayment of bills for services rendered, and the frequent reference of his claim to the bankruptcy court. And hard times affect the doctor for more reasons than upon the score of economy.

His services are not needed so often then. Money in plenty engenders imprudence and excess, and with them comes sickness. Barring the epidemic, there has been a steady falling off in disease during the last few years; general, we believe, but marked in this community. Thirty-four was the number of deaths in this city last week one in 4,000 people. Let us, at least, try to thank God for his general mercy.

Then hard times affect the doctor more cruelly than they do most men. He must make make show of success in life. This is the world's measure of his capacity. He dare not cheapen his coat, and though his manly bosom may chafe beneath a dollar shirt; he cannot lay it open to the world. He may not walk when abroad nor lessen his style at home, and the hollow tale of "fearfully busy" must still pass on, though he bailiff's visit on the It stands unparullelod.
