Biep to Dratn sy Crrtino a Wart.—a.
J. Barrington employed in Belcher’s salooa,
Philadelphia, bled to death-from cuiting a
wart off one of hisfeet. Ife had attempted to
stop tho hcmmorrhage by tying a piece of cord
around his leg but could aot, aad whea found
was dead, lying oa his face oa tho floor. Doceased was over fifty years old.
Pyfrno, the head of a sect called after his
name, asserted that thero was ao differeace
betweea life aad death. Some person, in ridicule of this position, asked Pyrrho why le did
not die, as life aad death were the same.
© For that very reason,” replied he, “ becaase
there is no differenco betweea the two states.”
