SE A HOSPITAL HERO Itwasacold dark night in December, and the wind blew along the slushy London streets; the blazing lights in the butchers’ s| in Clare Market waved about like infernal ban- ners. The policemen stood stiffly up in the doorways for shelter; and w: were snugly ensconsed in the house-surgeon’s room of old St. Barnabas, were perhaps the only people perfectly comfortabie in the paae of St. Clement Danes. Our party consisted of Brown, (we'll call him Brown,) myself,and a small thin man, called Jourdan. How small and fragile he looked ashe saton the arm of the old horse-hair sofa, discussing with Brown and myself a question in physiology. How red the spots grew over his cheek-bones, and bow bis cough rattled as he called Maller, Kolhker and Seroeder von der Kolk to witness that he was right, and we two signally and mdserably — “ Well, so be it,”’ said I, at last. ‘How the wind bo It must matter but little to these poor neighbors of ours under the Adelphi arenes whether their sensory nerve fibres can be traced upward from the posterior columns of the cord or net. For my own part, I don’t believe a—"’ “What!” shrieked Jourdan, “when Wagner has demonstrated that’’— “Oh, please, sir,’ said a nurse, bouncing into the room, ‘‘that man in the Top-Ward has got out of bed, and is jumpin’ mad.” * Well, make him go back again.”” “Tean’t,sir. He's got the crutch from the patient in the next bed, and I daren’t go near him.” ** Heigh ho!”’ said Jourdan, “it’s always thus in our profession. We just taste occasionally the sweets of scientific discussion, when we have to leave them for the disgusting practical — iid ip stairs we went. past wards were the suf- ferers were most of them forgetting in sleep the distresses to which they would presently awake. All was quiet in the old hospital, save the howl of the wind and Jourdan’s cough. “Confound the pedantic littlechap,”’ I thought to myself, “he'll weaken that operation case.”’ One more stairs to climb, and we reached the Top Ward, where there was unusual excite- ment; the patients sitting up in their beds; the poor fellow with heart disease. the consumptive, the dropsieal patient, all watching « tall stal- wart figure standing ina flannel night-gown, with his back to the fire, leaning f his ehin on acrutch, and evidently in deep thought. Directly he saw us he shouldered the said piece of timber, if not to show how ficlds were won, to give as good & representation as cireum- stances would allow of how he intended win- ning the field on the present oceasion. Wisk came the handle over my head, as I ducked and eseaped the blow. “My good man,”’ said Brown, “now do go into bed. Is there anything [—"’ Wisk came the erutch over our heads, and as we ducked, the msniac leaped rapidly past us from bed to bed, gained the door, and ere we had time to intercept him, he was in the pas- 33, 2 the ceiling of the passage just cutside this door was atrap which led out upon the roof; it was not far from the floor. With the activi- v of madness he leaped. caught the edge of the trap. swung himself up. and was upon the roof. Ve looked at each other. *Here’s a business,”’ says Brown, ‘he'll be down in the street in a twinking, for he'll nm stand agains: this wind.”” ~ What a mess we shall get into!’ was my selfish thought. We gota pair of steps, and etting up them put our heads out of the trap be moon was shining bright, but the wind was shrieking through the old stacks of chim- neys; and now and then atile detached would slide down the roof and drop into the street. ~: By jove,”’ says Brown. *-he must have fal- Jen; Lcan’tsee him anywhere. Let me look. Ah, there’ Good heavens! how could he have gut there, right at the end of this pointed old roof, covered with slippery tiles?” Across this, in the moonlight, we could see a long shadow, and what 1 at first took to bea chimney-stalk. was the madman, standing gaz- ingon the moon. Ateach gust of the fierce wind his body swayed as though he would fall; but there he stood in all the sublimity and strength of mania, gazing at — whose supposed influence over sach unfortunates as himself, has given its name te the most awful of maladies. What could we do? The nurses, the porters were assembled at the foot of the steps. Our feeling of responsibility was in- tensely peinful. An exclamation. a sudden noise, might send that poor wretch tumbling into the street. What were we todo? I felt something push by me on the stepe, and then, for the first time, noticed that Jourdan had re- joined us. A paroxysm of coughing had kept im below stairs when Brown anc [ hurried into the ward. I saw his eyes spackling, and heard his rough breathing as the little fallow said * Hold these.” and put — ot half-Wel- lingtons into my hands. as he mad, too, taking off his boots in such a place?’ ~* Why. Jourdan, what—”’ *Hash'’’ said he, as he raised himself through the trap and stood on the roof. We now saw he was going to seize the madman. The latter, as I have suid, was a tall, stout man in 4 state of acute mania; our friend was diminutive, and his naturally small frame was wasted by disease. He got on the sharp apex of the slooping roof; a blast of wind came, and down he went, but he caught something, raised himself, and walked along, like one on a tight ro} The madman does not seem to notice him. We watch them both, and our bearts beat not only with anxiety but shame. The ‘ibilit of such a fate never had éntered our own imagi- ations. Now he nears the maniac, who notices him, taras half round, and throws his arms up in defiance. But on Jourdan goes. Their shadows now mingle on the roof. The wind seems to howl louder, and our eyes less able to distinguish objects * ‘Great Heaven! they're down,” said Brown, Squeezing wy arm, us something ratiled over the roof. No—it was only a tile What are they doing? They are nearer us now—Jourdan walked wearily backwards, and leading the maniac, whom he had grasped by the breast of his night shirt. Still are these mad bands held out threateningly over the frail figure guiding him to safety. They reach the tray Brown and I descended the steps to make room for this strange pair. Down they come. We seize the great mad arms and pin them down, and put the man to bed. We turn to look for Jourdan, he is quietly pulling on his boots again; and so we all re- tara to the house-surgeon’s room. I shall not trouble the reader with any moral reflections, which he may draw, as well as myself, from this little adventure. Poor Jourdan’s brave spirit is now, I trast, where he obtains a clearer insight into those great truths he so en- thusiastically investigated in his shert and use- fal life. The patient whose life he saved was only suffering from temporary mental excite- meat, and is now « strong and useful man. —_——.20e-____ Wasy't Acgvarstep.—Two drunken fellows were walking aloug in the rain.
