* Lithotrity.—It appears to me more correct in the case of an operation performed more than once on
the same patient to give the actual number of times that the manipulation was executed, and, to prevent
misconceptions, to give the number of patients operated on afterwards. The number of capital operations
shown is of course greatly increased by this. The actual number of Lithotrity cases was 6.

Brown, the removal of a cancerous tumour from the orbit by Dr. Neil, and one case of
mine of removal of the lower jaw for Euchondroma. Another interesting case was the
formation of an artificial anus in a child 3 days old, who had congenital deficiency of
the reetum. I could not find the gut by incision in the natural situation, and therefore
opened the descending colon in the left loin. The parents would not keep the child in
the hospital, and we have no report later than the afternoon of the same day, when
meconium, was still passing freely through the artificial opening.

APPENDIX TO HOSPITAL REPORT.
Narain, œt 40, admitted on 6th May, 1867. Suffered from fever for six days,
Case of Herpes Zoster of followed by severe pain across the forehead. Small vesicle
now appeared in clusters on the left side of the forehead, and
within two or three, hours extended down to that side of the face. On admission, the
patient complained of great pain in tile forehead, more particularly on the sound side,
and in the eye of the affected side. The left half of the forehead was swollen, and
covered with patches of vesicles containing a milky fluid. This condition extended
to the median line, which limited it accurately ; vesicles also occupied the upper
eyelid, the side of nose even to its tip, the edge of the nostril and even partly its
interior, the tuberosity of the malar bone and the front of the face over the facial nerve
a few isolated spots existed on the lower lip. The parts occupied were thus those supplied
by the ophthalmic and superior maxillary division and a portion of the inferior ma
x-
illary division of the 5th nerve. The patient was somewhat weak, and a good
deal worn
by the continued pain.
On the 9th, the conjunctiva of the left eye became inflamed, and a
small phyct
e-
nula appeared next day at the edge of the cornea, with slight opacity.

PROCEEDINGS OF THE HON'BLE THE LIEUTENANT-GOVERNOR OF THE PUNJAB,
IN THE EDUCATIONAL DEPARTMENT,
Dated. 21st May, 1868.
READ—
Annual Report of the Lahore Medical School for 1867-68, furnished by Dr. Scriven, Principal.
The Hon'ble the Lieutenant-Governor observes that during the year
under report 4 students were passed as Sub-Assistant Surgeons, of whom
one is now House-Surgeon of the Hospital, and the remaining three in charge
of Dispensaries; that 20 students were passed as Native Doctors; that
during the eight years of its existence the institution has furnished 10 Sub-
Assistant Surgeons, and 71 Native Doctors—an important addition to the
Medical service; that, at the present time, there are 21 students of the English
class, training for Sub-Assistant Surgeons, 57 students in the Hindustani
class, training for Native Doctors, while there are 18 students, supported from
local sources, in training for employment in connection with District Dispen-
saries, &c.
2. There can be no doubt of the great value of the Lahore Medical
School. Owing to the extension of Dispensaries (a measure important on
grounds of public policy as well as of humanity) and to the greater atten-
tion now paid to sanitary matters, there is an increasing demand, in this
Province, both for Sub-Assistant Surgeons and Native Doctors, and this
demand could not have been met, but for the existence of the Lahore Medical
School.
3. Its utility was, further, signally exemplified last year, when it was
able to furnish 20 Native Doctors, whose services were of the greatest value
in connection with the outbreak of epidemic cholera.
4. This institution has met with some opposition heretofore, and its
necessity has even been questioned ; but His Honor has no hesitation in
stating that, he considers the Lahore Medical School to be one of the most
useful and most successful institutions in the Province; and he believes that
any impressions that may have been formed to the contrary, have been the
result of misapprehension.
ORDERED, that the Report be printed and circulated.

Esquire, Principal, Lahore Medical School, dated School of Physic, Trinity College,
Dublin, 2nd November, 1867.
I received your letter of the 16th September last, respecting the recognition of
the Lahore Medical School by the University of Dublin. We do not directly recognise
any Medical School, except that of the University of Edinburgh, and we indirectly recog
¬nise the Schools accepted by the College of Surgeons of England, by admitting the mem-
bers of that College to examination, on passing the arts examination, for our license in
medicine.
The University could not therefore directly recognise the Lahore Medical School,
but I am certain that in any individual case, if it came before the Board, they would be
most willing to deal liberally with a student of the Lahore School, and allow him every
reasonable privilege.
Your success, under disadvantageous circumstances, is most creditable to those who
have worked up the School to its present condition.
