It besets inexperienced laying the foundation of future misery, poisoning the nuptial cup with bitter malignity; destroying health, curtailing life, and mating it, during its brief career, a scene of anguish, from the consciousness of humiliating infirmity. The evil is but too rife in our age and country ; and expe rience can often discern the sad results in the early deaths, the hereditary and perpetuated ailments, and the matri monial discords and vandals, described, in convential par lance, as " unaccountable " and "mysterious." In cases of threatened injury to or suspension of faculties whose sound ness and vigour form su:li a prominent constituent in human happiness, sufferers may have their fears removed, the mis chief, however severe and inveterate, eradicated, and their warmest hopes of restoration to life's prerogatives fully realised. Dr. L &WERT, M.D., has been engaged for 20 years in the treatment of these disorders, and his treatise on "Self-Pre servation " describes how all the attributes of Manhood are lost or suspended, and how they can be restored and main tained In health and vigour to an advanced period of life.

THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 29, 1862. _RAILTVAY INTELLIGENCE. NORTH BRITISH. The half-yearly meeting was held at Edinburgh on Fri day ; Mr. R. Hodgson, M,P., in the chair. The report, an abstract of which has appeared in the Times, was held as read. The CHAIRMAN, in moving its adoption, expressed the regret of the directors that the dividend had been reduced to 1 per cent., owing to the depression of trade and the con sequent diminution of traffic. In consequence of the delay and extra expense of completing the Border Union Railway. they had not had for the past half-year the advan tage of tha traffic of that line to compensate for the general diminution in their receipts, and for the burden that had fallen upon them in connection with their sub - scription to the Border Union. But, notwithstanding the falling off, the directors had not hesitated to lay out an extra amount on the permanent way and on the locomotive stock. In consequence of the Amalgamation Act of 1862 the board had now to he reconstituted, and the directors had therefore tacitly to ask, by their re-election, a renewal of the confi dence that had been reposed in them. They had now opened a clear passage by Hawick to Carlisle, and also to Newcastle by Hexham; they had by amalgamations extended their territory from Perth to Dundee ; and almost all that re mained to them now was to perfect the work they had thus far advanced, and develop the traffic on the lines they had opened and become connected with. They had still to make the Galashiels and Peeblesshire, the Langholm and Ormis ton branches, and the Berwickshire and Wansbeck Rail ways, but these were works which they might finish at their leisure and with less cost. Their only Parliamentary contest still in prospect was the line to Dunfermline and Perth. To that project the directors were pledged; but, with that exception, they would not come before the share holders with any new measure for the ensuing session. The extra expenditure on the Border Union line had amounted to about £lBB,OOO. They had still the Langholm branch to finish, some 15 or 16 miles of railway to double, and accommodation works of some magnitude to erect on different parts of that line, and altogether the additional capital they would require to raise could not be much under £300,000; but as the expenditure on the rolling stock would depend on the development of the traffic, he thought, if they went to Parliament for £200,000, that would enable them to meet their obligations for some time to come. He concluded by adverting to the friendly relations of the North British with nearly all the companies with which it was brought into contact. Mr. KINLOCH seconded the motion, and the report was unanimously adopted. Resolutions were passed declaring the usual preference dividends for the past.half-year, and 1 per cent. per annum on the ordinary stock of the North British. The foil owing 16 directors were then unanimously chosen to constitute the new board :--Mr. Hodgson, chairman,the Hon. T. C. Bruce, Sir W. Dunbar, M.P., Messrs. Balfour, Craven, Leishman, Trotter, Sprot, Kinloch, Bowman,Muir, Dunlop, Ronald, Wilson, Donald, and Taylor. M ess " .

VEILLARD AND THE HON. F. CADOGAN. The Hon. Cadogan has letter : pu blished the following " Sir,--I returned this morning from Switzerland, where I have passed the last fortnight, unfortu nately out of reach of letters and papers. I have therefore only just seen your impression of the 18th, wherein you allude to my connexion with M. Veil lard in the refreshment department of the Interna tional Exhibition. I trust that it is not too late to furnish you with the following explanation. My position towards M. Veillard was strictly defined by an agreement drawn by my family solicitors, Messrs. Fladgate and Co., which agreement was further settled by counsel, for the double purpose of securing me against the risks of M. Veillard's engagements, as also against any possible imputaticu of having made an agreement which could offend against pub lic policy in principle or detail. The existence of this agreement was well known, not only to the executive, by whom my position was fully recog nised, but by most of those gentlemen who, I regret to say, are now the largest of creditors of the estate, and who form the committee inspection for wind ing up the affair s . T he payment I received under the above agreement was in consideration of ser vices rendered for now more than twelve months to M. Veillard, in conducting for him the negotiations with capitalists and others incidental to the under.. taking, preparing his tenders, procuring a large portion of the capital, superintending all the con structions and legal arrangements, and, above all, in being the intermediary between the executive of the Exhibition and M. Veillard in all the endless questions of detail and management, which it was manifestly impossible for a foreigner to have per sonally conducted. Her Majesty's Commissioners, and most of M. Veillard's principal creditors and supporters, can bear witness to the number and importance of those arrangements, which for nearly four months required, not only daily, but constant attendance upon the commissioners and their officers. I have received £2,400, which was paid to me by the daily receipt of one-eighth of a penny per head for each visitor to the Exhibition. On the other hand, a large portion of this amount was lent by me to M. Veillard, who still owes me a balance of £550 on this loan account. I am further personally liable for £1,500 advanced to him upon m y private security. It is not for me to decide whether the services rendered, and the responsi bilities incurred, have been over remunerated by the balance remaining in my favour. The sole purpose of this statement is to reply to your natural ques tion as to my connection with M. Veillard's con tract, and to refute the cruel and libellous attacks, of which, in my absence, I have been made the ob ject by some of the press and its correspondents, by whom it is insinuated that I used undue influence to obtain the contract for M. V e i llard, and that I put forward a man of straw in order to victimise his creditors to my so le profit. All the negotiati ons that took p l a ce with her Maj es t y ' s Commissioners ou behalf of M. Veillard were conducted by me, solely with those gentlemen in their official capacity. It amounts to an insult to them that I should be re quired to assert that on no occasion, either by w ord did I receiv e an , or by implication/ y preference or advantage over the other parties tendering for this contract. " My previous knowledge of M. Veillard, con firmed by the result of the inquiries I made here and in France, satisfied me that his antecedents were those of an honourable man, fully able to conduct the department in question, with whom I could safely and creditably enter into the arrangement already named. I left it to her Majesty's Commis sioners to form their opinion of his credit and capa bilities through their own private channels of in quiry. " The result of those inquiries and the reason for his tender being accepted are stated by her Mgjes ty's Commissioners in your impression of the 18th. " To the unexpected detention in Scotland of the gentleman who, cognisant of this business in all its details, would have represented me at the meeting of M. Veillard's creditors, during my unavoidable absence on the Continent, is, I trust, to be attributed the unfounded and scandalous statements that have been coupled with my name. "I am, sir, your very obedient servant, "FREDERICK CADOGAN. "72, South Audley-street, Sept. 24." GARIBALDIAN DEMONSTRATION IN HYDE-PARK. DISGRACEFUL PROCEEDINGS. It having been publicly intimated that a demon stration would take place in Hyde-park yesterday afternoon, for the purpose of expressing sympathy with Gen. Garibaldi, and protesting against the occupation of Rome, the capital of Italy, by French troops, contrary to the wishes and desires of the Italian people, by 3 o'clock, the hour announced at which the proceedings were to commence, from 12,000 to 15,000 people had assembled in that, the largest of the people's park, to take part in and to witness them. The assemblage was such as would have done honour to Garibaldi as well as to England, and the great majority who came there and also mingled in it, no doubt intended that such should be the result of it. But like all Sunday demonstrations of a public and political character which take place in Hyde Park, it has ended in disappointment, not from any backwardness on the part of the multitude who came to witness it or participate in the object for which the meeting was convened, but from a want of forethought on the part of the originators of the meeting, in not taking the requisite and proper steps for having the proceed ings conducted in order and regularity. Up to 3 o'clock there was no appearance of anyone on the ground who had anything to do with the getting up of the meeting, and no preparation made for standing-room for the speakers who were to ad dress it. The portion of the park where it was an ticipated the proceedings would take place was that in front of Grosvenor-gate, where the reviews are held. On that portion, as is the case on Sunday afternoons, were studded here and there groups of people around revival preachers, and people en gaged in doubtful occupations, and from one to the other of these did the Garibaldian sympathisers wander in quest of the meeting they had come there to attend. On the portion of the park in question there is a heap of materials of about 14 by 9 yards at the top, and rising about 3 feet above the surface, and soon after 3 o'clock Mr. Bradlaugh and some others hav ing taken their stand on the northern end of this ready-made platform, the crowd at once gathering round them. On their doing so the last-named gentleman stated that as there was no appearance of those who had convened the meeting, and as he had been asked to take a part in it, he thought it a pity that the people should be kept any longer waiting, and he would there core address a few words to them. He accordingly commenced to dilate upon I the treatment to which Garibaldi had been subjected and the diabolical proceedings of the Emperor of the French in maintaining his troops in Rome,wben he was assailed by interruptions of all descriptions, and for a time was compelled to desist. In order to infuse regularity into the proceedings, a chairman was then appointed in the person of Mr. Charles Murray, who endeavoured to address the multitude, but who in the outset of his speech was hurled with his friends from the seat of eminence by a movement which a few Irish roughs had organised in the rear of them down among the crowd beneath. By remarkable dexterity, however, the chairman regained his place upon the mound, but his efforts to speak were completely drowned in the noise which prevailed. The whole of the proceedings now became a con tinual fight as to who should occupy the eminence which the parties who had convened the meeting had voluntarily chosen for the platform. It was, in fact, a question whether a few Irish roughs were to prevail in marring and rendering nugatory the pro ceedings of the meeting. During one of the lulls in the fighting portion of the affair, Mr. Bradlaugh proposed a resolution to the effect that the meeting ma of opinion that Garibaldi was faithfully doing his duty when he fell at Aspromonte, and desired to express its admiration at the heroic fortitude ho had displayed in his hour of trial. This resolution was sEconded by Mr. Glegg, and supported amid much uproar by Mr. Mantle, from Manchester, Mr. Wade, and others, but, so far as we could see, was never put to the meeting, while it was con fidently stated that in the course of the discussion of it and during one of the encounters for the possession of the platform an attempt was made to stab Mr. Bradlaugh. He was not, at all events, again seen in the fray, which continued to rage un til the chairman and his friends left, when the Irish men seemed to have got the mound to themselves, and then one of their number commenced dealing out invectives against Garibaldi in no measured terms. While, however, the jostling and fighting for the possession of the mound seemed to be taken by the crowd in good humour, this piece of impudence was too much even for the good nature of John Bull to bear, and, headed by a sergeant and a private of the Coldstream Guards, a number of persons rushed upon the mound and kicked the jubilant occupants from the top of it like bundles of dirty rags, and they had the good sense not to attempt to regain it. When it was seen that the business for which the meeting had assembled could not be properly car ried out, the immense multitude got formed into groups around some persons who held forth to them upon some subject more or less connected with the circumstances which had called them together, while these were ever and anon split up and dis persed by the moving to and fro of the crowd as some panic would be created by a mob in this or that direction, and at last, about half-past 4 o'clock, the rain began to descend in such torrents as cooled the zeal of the most ardent and the most mischie vous, and was no doubt the meat's, by clearing the park of its occupants, of saving the guardians of the public peace a great deal of trouble and annoyance. In the course of the proceedings three parties ' were taken int o cus t o d y b y th e p o li ce , as being the most notorious of the roughs in the melee, ot"1 the number of brok e n umbrellas,:torn coats, and dila pidated hats were too numerous to mentionw. the yde It is, however, but right to state th.aotns in propriety of these Sunday demonstdra,ting from the park may be liable to question, j u„„courso which general appearance of the larg e . ,, d e monstration assembled yesterday afternonn,ft:in' one had it been would have been a most success m uosed of the elite large°-- portion of the properly conducted, for it wa of the working classes a nd ere with man for the purpose o f t middle classes, who ca me the great lin expressing their sY m P. a .,.

STAMPED ....sd. COMPLETION OF THE METROPOLITAN RAILWAY. The works of this great metropolitan improve ment may now be said to be complete, the small amount that remains unfinished being very minor details and decorations. Col. Yolland, the Govern ment inspector of the railway department of the Board of Trade, finished his inspection of the line on Friday, and the company now only await the result of his certificate to open the railway to the public. The terminal station in Farringdon-street is a very commodious one, and by the middle of the week the painting and paper-hanging will be finished. The platform, reached by a flight of about a dozen steps, is covered with a light iron and glass roofing. The railway at this point is in an open cutting of nearly 100 feet in width. The Charles -street bridge crosses the railway through the station. It is a level bridge and possesses seve ral very good points. It is 41 feet in width below the parapets, and has a clear span of 95 feet. Seven wrought-iron girders rest upon cross girders, which are supported upon four circular iron columns. The parapets are formed of iron slabs, with panel moulding, which slide into their places down grooves in cast-iron standards secured to the girders. The bridge will be painted bronze colour, and will have a very agreeable appearance from the roadway, The other bridges from the station to the mouth of the tunnel are completed, and will be open for the traffic of vehicles next week.; IThe Charles-street bridge has been built from designs made by Mr. Jacomb, a pupil of the late Mr. Brunel, and who has been appointed by Mr. Fowler, the engineer, to superintend the whole of the iron work con nected with the railway. From the terminus in New Farringdon-street to the commencement of the tunnel under Coppice-row the railway will be open, and not, as is generally termed, an under ground one, and for several hundred yards on the City side of King's-cross the rail will also run in an open cutting, as well as for some short distance before entering the Great Western Railway sta tion. The branch tunnel leading to the eastern side of the Midland and Great Northern Railway at King's-cross has been for some time completed, but a smaller branch is now being made which will enable the trains from the midland counties and the north to run right through to London with out reversing at the junction. For the continua tion of this short cut the contractors have again to overcome their old enemy, the Fleet ditch, which will be carried across the crown of the tunnel in an iron aqueduct. At the King's cross and other stations spring switches have been laid similar to those laid by Mr. Brunel on the main line of the Great Western Railway. These will admit of the trains running through without requiring pointsmen at these parts. The construc tion of the telegraph, which is to connect the vari ous stations, and by which the signal-men are to communicate from station to station, is just finished, and the signals have been partially tested. The rails of the permanent way are steeled by Dodd's process, and the joints are fished and bolted with Low Moor iron. In securing the rails the expan sion of the metal has been duly provided for by driving the bolts through the rails with the points only at red heat, the other portion being cold iron' The engine pit at the station is provided with a tank, into which the water of the condensed steam will be caught, and conveyed away to a reservoir to be again used in the engines, thus economising the water and saving a proportionate outlay for its sup ply, the water rate charged by the New River Com pany forming a considerable item in the working expenses. The line is to be worked entirely by the Great Western Railway Company, to whose line it will undoubtedly prove a most valuable feeder. The engines are constructed upon the plan of Mr. Fow ler, and consume not only their smoke but also their steam, so that no inconvenience will be felt by pas sengers in travelling along the railway. These are now ready for action. Two of them have been at work for some days past upon the railway, making themselves generally useful in drawing laden trucks, and bringing up materials for various parts of the line. The carriages are also finished. These are of very large dimensions, and run upon 8 wheels. They will be lighted with gas. On the top of each carriage is placed a small iron reservoir or gasometer, which is filled at the station from the gas mains in the same manner as the tender is supplied with water. Each gasholder will contain sufficient for several journeys, and the light in the carriage will be very agreeably diffused ,and sufficiently bright to enable passengers to read with ease. Hydrants to be used in case of fire at the stations have been pro vided, and these, where required, are in connexion with the mains of the New River Company, and the pressure is sufficient to throw a jet of water 30 feet in height. The time bill and table of fares will be ready for publication in a few days.—Observer. 1111.21MNSE ARRIVALS OF COTTON IN LIVERPOOL. COTTON EN ROUTE FROM INDIA.

The net profit was £1,603, out of which the directors proposed to pay 5 per cent., absorbing £1,058, and carrying forward £545 to next account. On the motion of the CHAIRMAN, seconded by Mr. T. G. STIRLING, the report was unanimously adopted and the dividend was declared. PORTPATRICK. The report of the directors of this company states that the accounts for the half-year ending the 31st of July last ex hibit a satisfactory increase in the traffic as compared with the corresponding period of last year. The line was opened for traffic on the 12th of March, 1861; the total receipts for the months of April, May, June, and July amounted to £1,357, and for the same months of 1862 to £5,565, show ing an increase of £1,208. The directors look upon the in crease in every month of the present year, arising as it does almost exclusively from local traffic, as affording a hopeful prospect for the future, while the resources of the district still admit of considerable development. Until the line and harbours connected with it are completed, and a daily steamboat service is established with the north of Ireland, the revenue to be anticipated from the undertaking can not be fully realized. The whole line to Portpatrick is now completed and open for local traffic, and if the Government had shown sufficient energy in pushing on the works for the improvement of the harbour at Port patrick the company would now be reaping the full benefit of their connexion with the shortest sea passage to Ireland. Very little progress has been made since the last report on the Portpatrick harbour works, and the directors have con sequently addressed a memorial to the Admiralty, urging, in the strongest terms, the obligation which the Govern ment undertook to have the harbour works concluded as soon as the company should be in a condition to use it in connexion with their line. In the meanwhile, and with the special object of bringing Irish traffic over the line, the directors, taking advantage of the opening of the railway from Belfast to Larne next month, have, in conjunction with the Northern Counties Railway of Ireland, the Castle Douglas and Dumfries and London and North-Western Railway Companies, entered into an arrangement for three years for establishing a daily passage between Stranraer and Larne, which they hope will be the means of adding greatly to the traffic on the railway, as satisfactory rates for passengers and goods traffic will immediately come into ope ration between Londonderry, Belfast, and other towns in the north of Ireland, and the principal towns in England and Scotland. The capital account shows that £529,298 had been expended, leaving a balance of £4,531 against the company. The revenue account for the half-year ending the 31st of July showed that £7,712 had been received and £5,424 expended, leaving a balance of £2,288. To this is added £4,131 from the preceding half-year, making £6,419, and from which is deducted £2,106 for interest on loans, leaving a balance of £4,313. LYNN AND HUNSTANTON. On Saturday the Government Inspector passed over this line for the purpose of examining it previous to the com mencement of traffic. Mr. Moseley, Mr. Robertson, and other officials of the Great Eastern Company in the course of last week made the necessary arrangements for working the traffic. The half-yearly meeti E ng A o M f S t E hi Y s ' company was held last week at Ramsey, Mr. E.

The directors had entered into an agreement with the Great Northern Company to work the line for seven years. Agree ments had also been made for the necessary lands, with the exception of that held by three landowners. The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report, referred to the large amount of calls in arrear, and stated that in future interest would be charged upon them at the rate of 5 per cent. The directors hoped to obtain the land which had not been yet arranged for without unnecessary litigation. The proceedings closed with a vote of thanks to the chairman and directors.

On Thursday a meeting of landowners Wooler to consider a proposition to make a railway held in the central part of N orthumberla nd: Mr. 0 through G. Cully occupied the chair. prop o sed to commence the line It was by a junction with the Wansbeck Valley Railway at Scot's Gap, limestone tracts where the railway intersects the great which traverse the country, to cross the Co q uet near the trinkborn. l re works, thence westward to R othbury, Passi ng into the ll- valley of the Aln near Almain to Powburn, near the Cheviot range, and thence to Wooler and Cor nhill. Resolutions approving the proposed line Were agreed to, sad Mr. Richard licdgeo, NZ) gAd Six Rai, St, raw EGYPT. . _ A letter from Alexandria, dated Sept. 18, says— Beyond the mere fact that the Viceroy is still at Constantinople, we have net:intelligence whatever of his movements.

In the east a body of Bedouins had ad vanced from Syria for the purpose of attacking a rival tribe, but they also promptly retreated 'on hearing that a small body of regular troops had been despatched against them, accompanied by tm , o light guns, the desert Arabs, by the way, entertain ing:a most wholesome dreadof anything in the shape of artillery. The Government has , c9ntrived to cap ture one of the chiefs, who is at this momentim prisoned at Cairo, and the garrison of .El Areesh, the frontier station between Egypt and Syria, has been reinforced. These matters at any other time would have af forded ample food for discussion, but we are now on the eve of the new cotton season, and the attention of the whole country, from the wealthiest land holder down to the poorest fellah, seems absorbed in the contemplation of the dazzling prospects with which the new campaign is opening. A few occa sional lots as yet, it is true, very trifling in quan tity, are already appearing in the Alexandria mar ket, and, although more than doubtingly accepted as new cotton, they are realising enormous prices. Ismail Pasha and Mustafa Pasha, the two largest producers in the country, have commenced cau tiously selling comparatively small lots for forward delivery, and their prices have rapidly risen to 60 dole. the canter. Cotton is, in short, at this moment fully three, perhaps nearly fourfold, what at any other time would have been considered its nature. value. An immense amount of wealth seems, there fore, destined to pour into the country within the six months. According to moderate computations, the incoming crop will amount to considerably more than 1,000,000 of canters, and unless an abrupt and seemingly unlikely change takes place in Ame rican affairs, little if at all less than £8,000,000 sterling will be required to pay for it. It is gratifying to be able to add that in the midst of these brilliant prospects, it does not seem likely to be overlooked that the same causes that are ope rating so much to the advantage of the Egyptian planters are inflicting great and undeserved dis tress in the manufacturing business, whence these vast amounts are to be derived. Halim Pasha, lam informed, has already sent a sum of £2OO to aid in the relief of the English operatives, and that without waiting absolutely to secure any portion of the benefits of which the prospects arc be fore him. This example will, without doubt, be followed by others, and the act, honourable as it is to the Prince's good feelings as well as to his intel ligence, will, I feel assured, not pass without duo appreciation from all conditions of Englishmen. The arrival at Alexandria of Mr. Foublanque, lately appointed legal Vice-Consul for Egypt, and the pending reorganisation of the Consular tribunals have again been postponed for a while. It would appear, also, that we are now seriously threatened with the concession of a right, or rather of an obli gation to "trial by jury." it may illustrate tle almost complete absence of intercourse among the British communities settled in the Levant that up to the present we know nothing of the matter ex cepting by rumour. But it is reported, among other things, that in the memorial transmitted from Constantinople her Majesty's subjects in Egypt are represented as joining in the petition. The report has occasioned a good deal of amusement among some persons, and no small anger among others. A counter-petition is already spoken of, and nothing but some more authoritative informa tion on the subject seems to be required in order that it be carried into effect. Without, in fact, wishing to judge for our countrymen at Constan tinople and Smyrna, it is here universally felt that a system of juries would be anything but adapted to the circumstances in which we are placed at Alex andria. The practice that has been in use up to the present time, according to which the business of the consular courts is conducted by the Consul as judg e , assisted by two assessors , has invariabl y given per. , feet satisfaction, whether to the English, Maltese, or lonians. The two last-mentioned elements of the community are not composed of classes in gene ral capable of appreciating either the duties or the privileges that belong to the system of juries. Of this, were it necessary, many proofs could be cited, sufficient to show that the ends of justice are likely to derive but poor service from any such change in the old practice. Among the English inhabitants there are certainly not above 40 persons whose age and sex or the nature of whose oc cupation could render themselves available, and by them the oft-recurring obligation to serve would be simply looked upon as an intolerable tax, uncom pensated by the slightest substantial advantage to the general community. Let me add that justice is very cheap in the consular tribunals, and shat the European population, English as well as foreign, has a decided penchant for litigation. The forthcoming visit of Prince Napoleon t to o Egypt has it is said, been officiallyannounced the Government, and although contradictory rumours are at this moment afloat, extrmsive pre parations have been arranged for receiving the Prince with special honours. EXII?AORDINARY SURGICAL OPERATION., A surgical operation of an extraordinary charac ter was performed on Sunday week, at Southamp ton, by Dr. Wiblin, a surgeon of that town. The operation in question consisted in the removal of an enormous tumour, which had been growing from the lower part of the body of a poor man for seven teen years. This mass, when suspended before the operation, weighed upwards of 501b5., and, as may be imagined, the patient was rendered a most piti able object, The case had excited great interest, as the man had been sent up to London some time since for the purpose of being examined by some of the most eminent surgeons in the metropolis ; and Dr. Wiblin, finding that the majority of these gen tlemen decided with him that an operation was feasible, determined to remove the tumour. A largo number of surgeons, both London and provincial, met at Southampton on Sunday week to witness and assist in this formidable proceeding, which was accomplished with great dexterity by Dr. Wiblin, in about half-an-hour, the patient being under the influence of chloroform the whole time. It is about thirty years since the late Mr. Aston Key removed a similar growth from a poor Chinaman, in Guy's Hospital. In that case, however, death occurred on dnil by ysa most : ew e x d o. p b oe y r_ the operating table from loss of blood. precautions enabled report v t a o s this case, Dr Wiblin took extraordinary. to avoid bleeding, and bein three surgeons from th© operation with but little rienced in operahtieve complete this formidabl© gn etraty being m etropolis, thh a ee s ssats wast doing well. loss of bloods and t'clabPlae:er T--.,~~y t of for ars only :her her the cost sen very 'the t be
