In the course of the evening, the conduct of one of the speakers gave for a short time an amusing turn to the discussion, which for a great part had appeared to many extremely dry and tedious. The gentleman in question, (not a medical man), in order to show the opinion he had entertained of the object of the meeting, proposed to read for the audience a letter which he himself had written to the chairman of the committee, asking permission to attend. He began, but he had scarcely got through a few words when he declared he was not able to make out his own writing, and requested the chairman to assist him. The chairman made the attempt, but was not more successful. Another gentleman then undertook the task, but with no better effect. The audience received each unsuccessful effort with loud laughter, which so much annoyed the writer that he took back the letter, and again tried to go through with it, but not being able to make it out, he proposed to read for the meeting two letters which he wrote on the same subject to the editor of a Sunday paper. (Loud laughter followed this proposition, which was increased, when, on an attempt to read one of them, he had no more success than before.) The gentleman, after complaining of the want of courtesy in the meeting, resumed his seat, declaring that he would give the letters to the reporters.--_Times, Wednesday._ HOSPITAL REPORTS. GLASGOW ROYAL INFIRMARY. _Injuries of the Head._ D. M'Millan, æt. 40, seaman;--while he was employed in the hold of a vessel, a heavy iron block, of a round form, fell from the rigging, a height of 20 feet, and struck him on the head. He was knocked down and stunned, but was able to rise and to walk with a little support. He was brought about a mile and a half in a hackney-coach to the hospital, and admitted by Mr. Cowan at one o'clock P.M., half an hour after the accident. At this time he had a stupified look, but was quite collected, and was able to walk across the ward; breathing and pupils both natural; pulse 75, of moderate strength. There was a wound in the scalp, commencing nearly over the centre of the sagittal suture, and running about three inches backwards and towards the left; along this a portion of skull, corresponding to the wound in size, was felt fractured, detached, and irregularly depressed. His right arm was benumbed and nearly powerless, but no mark of injury was observed on it.
