It 18 a well-known fact, and one which appeals to the judgment of every think- ing person, that the physician who devotes his `whole time to the study and investiga- tion of a certain class of diseases, must become better qualied to treat such dis- eases than he who attempts to treat every _ ill to which esh is heir, without giving special attention to any particular" class of diseases. Men, in all ages of the world, who have become famous, have devoted, their lives tosome special branch of sci- ence, art, or literature. A By thorough organization, and sub-division of the prac- tice of medicine and surgery in this In- stitution, every invalid is treated by a specialist, one who devotes his undivided attention to the particular class of diseases to which the case belongs. The-advan- tage of this arrangement must be obvious.

Dickens : Phlnstlnun. _ It is diiciilt to say where, in Dickens, the humorist ends and the sstirist begins. but there are in his works wholo classes of chiiracter in which the sstiriet evidently predom- inates. His method oiassailing social and political sbiuses is to make them ridiculous or hateful, and he makes them ridiculous or hateful by'imperson- sting them in"men and women. .

The intellectual_ limitations of Dickens are also. revealed in his satiri- cal sketches. His heart is developed out of all proportion to his brain. The abuses of a systems blinds his eyes to its merits and its purpose. He is a re- former, but a reformer whose common- `sense is unaccompanied with compre- hensive intelligence, and whose moral sense frequently impel: him to be prac- . tically unjust. - ' HIS TRANBFORMACION Ci? THINGS. Dickens must not only have had ex- ceptional powers of observation and imagination, but extra-ordinary inten- sity of sympathy with ordinary feelings and beliefs. His genius in characteriza- tion tends to the grotesque and extrava- gant; his personages, in their names as in their qualities", produce on us the effect of strangeness; the plots of the novels in which they appear would , with any other characters seem grossly ' improbable, and yet his mind is unmis ' takably rooted in common sense and - common humanity`. He thus succeeds in giving his readers all the pleasure I which comes` from contemplating what is strange, odd,and_ eccentric, without ` disquieting them by any "paradoxes in morals or shocking them by any perversions of homely natural sentiment ' The Christmas Carol, for example, is 5 as wild in grotesque fancy as a dream .- of Homann, yet in feeling as solid and 1' sweet and humane as a sermon of Ohanning. It impresses -us somewhat l as we are impressed by the sight of the ` Bible" as illustrated by Gustave" Dore Thus. held fast to common," homely truths and feelings by his sentiments, he can safely give reins to his imagina- , tion in his `creations. The keenest of ` observers, both of `things and persons, all that he observes is still taken up and transformed by his imagination- becomes,Dickmsized,'in fact--so that, 3 whether he describes a landscape or a | boot-jack, or a building." or a man, we ' see the object, not as it isin itself, but l __ 2; :_ .I-I:..:......I..
