By George Eliot's death, sums up the Inndon Academy, we arc left with only one living novelist who is absolutely of the firstclass. Thackeray died soon after George Eliot became famous, and Dickens when she had yet much of her best woik to do. During all the years in w hich she labored, it is ierhaps true that only one novelist cf extraordinary penius bad arisen. It is -T-hapstrue that the position filled at one and the same time by Dickens. Thackeray and George Kliot can be claimed at the present moment, if claimed at all, only by a sir.glej novelist by Thomas Hardy.

SWAILOWLI) IIIS TEKTir. What ClirUtmai I'g-g-Xos; Rroaght to a Maryland Slaa Wlione Stomach tlie doctor Opened. . (Roltiniore News. A singular mishap occurred to a prominent gentleman freru one of the lower Counties of Maryland, a few days ago, while he was on a visit to relatives in Uns city. The circumstances connected with thearlair are of an amusing character, such as jerhaps were never witnessed before in this city. A few days after Christmas this gentleman came to the city to Lave a good time, and while he was enjoying the convivialities so pecti iar to the season, Le met with this extraordinary accident: It appears that in company with several friends be bad partaken extravagantly of egg-nog and other good things until that condition was produced which is so familiar to the lovers of Christmas cheer. In this semi-conscious ttate, while endeavoring to partake of solid food, Le swallowctl six or seven fak-e teeth, together with the plate to which they w ere attached. The size of this plate by actual measurement was about '.' -xl !j inches. It would .seem almo;t impossible for to large a bod y to traverse so small an opening as the ocf-ophogus. but this can be readily accounted for by the fact that at the time of the accident the party was in the condition of complete muscular relaxation, w hich is very similar to that produced by the inhalation of chloroform. Consequently, under such circumstances, the throat was very expansive, and the foreign body (or set of tcc tli) could traverse it with but .slight resistance. The unfortunate man did not seem to be aware of his conditiou until the f jllowing day, w hen the absence cf his tc ih and intense pain in the region of the btomach excited his atprehensions, which were tubcequcr.tfy verified in all their frightful reality. He at once sought prominent medical novice, but all their efforts in the shape of emetics proved unavailing, while Lis condition was rapidly becoming more and more serious. His stomach n ject d even the most delicate articles of food and his strength was greatly exhausted. Fe.irjng that something unusually serious was the matter, Lis relatives iommoned Dr. A. Hill, a prominent young surgeon, who was not long in responding to the tall. When the Doctor arrived at the bouse, on Kdmoudsoti avenue, above Fulton, he found his patient in a very weakened condition, and after a careful examination, concluded that he was suffering from incipient inflammation of the stomach, which he thouit was produced by the swallowing cf some hard substance. The ustial remedies were applied, but proved futile, consequently the only mode by which the patient coukl be relieved was hy the operation known as "gastrotomy," or opening of the stomach. At'ier the projr incbiovis had been made, to the great surprise of all present, a set of false teeth met their gaze. They were at once removed, and at the request of the patient restored to their former position. The man is now rapidly recovering, and stated toa News reporter lä-t night that he expected to be aole to return to his boiac in a few days, but intended ' to swear off for tho future." A ToucLiot; Scene. A passenger e-n the pacific Railroad, while en route recently for San Francisco, witnessed the? following very touching incident: When the train reached Allen's Junction Conductor Kichardsju proclaimed, "Cars stop here twenty minutes for re freshments."' Then, as the train camo to a dead halt, Le jumpsd down upon the station jJatform, ran along to the front of the Jong line of passenger cars, where the engine was standing, and, swinging hitnsclf up into the cab, said to the engineer: "Frank, I want you to come back with me to the first passenger coach and see a little girl that I hardly know what to make of." The engineer iwddcd without speaking, deliberately wi.d Wis oily, smoky Lands on a bunck of waste, took a look at his grimy, dusty face in the narrow little mirror that hung beside the steam gauge, pulled ofT his frtx-K.put on a coat, changed bis little black, greasy cap for his soft felt hat taking these "dress-up" articles from the tender-box, where an engineer always bns stowed away for any emergency and went back to the coach as requested. He entered the coach and made his way to the seat where the kind-hearted conductor sat talking to a bright-eyed little girl, about nine years old, odd I y-ei resscd in a woman's shawl and bonnet. Several of the passengers were grouped around the seat,' evidently much interested iu the child, who wore a sad, prematurely old countenance, but seemed to be neither timid nor confused. "Here is the engineer," said the. conductor kindly, as Frank approached. She held up her hand to him with a winsome smile breaking over her pitched little face, and said : "My father wtis an engineer before he became sick and went to live on a farm in Montana, lie is dead and my mother is dead. She died first before Susie and Willie. My papa used to tell me that after heshould be dead there would be no one to take care of me. and then I must get on the cars and go to my old home iu Vermont. And he said if the conductor w ouldn't let me ride because I hadn't any ticket, I must ask for the engineer and tell hiru I was James SIcKendrick's little girl, that used to run on the M. and (i. llet'd." The pleading blue eyes were now full cf tcarsj out she did not cry after the manner of children In general. Engineer Frank now quJt kly stooped down and kissed her very tenderly, and then, as he brushed the tears away from his own eyes, said: "Well, hit dear, so you are little Bessie McKendrick? It's my opinion a merciful Providence guided you on board this train." Then turning around to the group of ras: scngers, he went on: "I knew Jim McKendrick, the father of this little girl, wclL He was a man -out of ten thousand. When 1 first came to Indiana before I got acclimated I. was sick a great part of the time, so I that could not work, and I got homesick and discouraged. Couldn't keep my boarikbill paid ur. not to mention my doctors bill, and didn't much care whether I lived or dieeL "One day, when the pay-car came along, and the men were getting their monthly wages, there wasn't a cent omingtome, for I hadn't been free from the ague,, nor worked an hour for the last mouth. "I felt so blue that I sat down on a pile of railroad ties, and leaned my elbows on my kaccs, with my Uca4 ia toy baud, and cried.

like a great boy, out of sheer homesickness and discouragement. "Pretty soon one of the railroad men came along and said in a voice that sounded like music in my ears, for I hadn't found much sympathy out there, although the boys were all good to me in their way: You've been havinga rough time of it, and you must let me help you out." "I looked up and there stood Jim McKendrick, with, his month's pav in his band. He took out from the roll of his bills a $20 note and handed it to me. "I knew be had a sickly wife and two or three children, and that he had a hard time of it himself to pull thiough from month to month, so I said, half ashamed of the tears that were still streaming down my face, 'Indeed, 1 can not take the money. "You need every cent of it yourself.' " 'Indeed, you will take it, man.' said" Jim. 'You will be all right in a few weeks, and then you can pay it back. Now come home with me to supper and see the babies; it will do you good.' "I took the bank .note and accepted the invitation, and after that went to Lis Louse freuuentlv. until be moved wav. and I

gradually lost sight of Lira. I had returned the loan, but it was impossible to repay tle good that little act of kindness did me, and I rather guess Jim McKendrick'a little girl here will not want for anvthingif lean help iL" Then turning again to the child, whose I blue eyes were wide open enough now, the engineer saiu 10 ner: ''I'll take you home with me, Bessie, dear, when we get up to Wayne. My wife will fix you up, ami we'll write and find out whether those Vermont relationsreally want you or not If they do, Mary or I shall go with you. But if the' don't care much about you, you shall stay with us and be our little girl, for we have none of our own. You look very much like your father, God ble-s Lis memory." Just then the Eastern train whistled. "All aloard was shouted. Engineer Frank vanished out of the car door and went forward to his engine, wiping his eyes with his coat sleeve, while the conductor and sympathetic passengers could not suppress the tears this touching little episode evoked during the twenty minutes' stop at Allen's Junction. A JEKIUIOUNIV3 SACIACITY. The Life of a Rattlesnake. River Hnnter Saved by III Dog. (Helena (Mont.) Independent Herman Hutterand Charles Whitman, of Misoulia. armed with rilles vnd accompanied by a decrhound, the other dav went up the Rattlesnake River in quest of game. They climbed the mountains to the left of the stream and separated, taking opposite sides of the ridge, in the hopes of bagging a deer. Whitman came down the Rattlesnake side, and'soon after separating from his companion he slipped and fell, sliding some '00 feet down the ruonntain side. He vainly endeavored ' to stop himself by digging into the snow with his hands anil feet, and clutching at brush and saplings, till just as he was about to be precipitated over the cliff into the Rattlesnake, some forty feet below, be fortunately clapped a strong sapling with one hand, and was left dangling in the air over the precipice. By a strong effort he managed to clasp, the sapling with his- arm in the tlbowvand grasping Lis wrist with tl.e disengaged hand, awaited Lis inevitable fall with'' desperation. The hound, seeing his master fall, followed him to the edge of the cliff and whined pitrously at the predicament of his human friend, Suddenly he dashed off over the hill like a deer and disappeared. When nearly exhausted, Whitman heard his companion, Hut ter, above him, coming to his assistance. He gathered renewed courage, and held on desperately till Hutter came down with a roje and rescued him from his perilous position. Hutter says he Lad gone but a short distance w hen the dog came upon him and seized bold of his clothing, whining: He turned upon him and the dog ran off. Repeating the strange maneuver, Hutter suspected something wrong, and followed the uog to Whitman's rescue. Man.' Kxtracts from an Old Volume.
