OPERATION UPON ROO LAO, CRINESE FOR A

TUMOUR IN GUY'S HOSPITAL.

(NT AN EVE.WITNISF.)

ing the extraordinary abdominal tmnout froth the Chinese, Hon Loo,
and the particulars connected with hip snivel in this country for that
purpose, having been pulliely nmicell by the daily press, (bur's Hos-
pital, at an early hm ur in the mourning. was absolutely besieged by the
most celebrated medical and scientific men in the neighbourhood of the
metropolis.
Amongst the crowd of medical, scientific, and nonmedical indivi-
duals who were present to witness the operation, we may enumerate the
following:—Sir A. Cooper, Mr. Copeland Hutchinson, Mr. Titus
Barry, Mr. Parke (brother of Mungo Parke), Dr. Stroud. Dr. Bright,
21r. Scott, Mr. Pidcock, Mr. Morgan, Mr. B. Cooper, Dr. Hodgkin,
Mr. Calloway, Mr. Green, Mr. Travers, &c. At one o'clock Sir A.
Cooper antered the operating theatre, and stated, that in consequence of
the smallness of its size, and the number who would thus be peccluded
witnessing the operation, it would take place in the L.rgc anatomical
theatre, whither a lush was immediately made by those assembled ;
and although this Theatre will hold nearly one thousand persons,
it was crammed in every part within two minutes of time
doors being opened. At half-past one o'clock, Hoo Loo was
ushered into the Theatre by the sister and nurses of the
Ward " Luke," with that appearance of good humour in bia coun-
ty:at:cc (laughing, buoyant, and spirited) which he has been remarks-
able for manifesting ever since his introduction at Guy's. Indeed, he
appeared to interest every one present in his " future fate," and no
one betrayed a greater feeling, of :;nxiety (without a particle of ner-
vousness or trepidation) to bring the operation to a successful issue.
than Mr. Kcy. This was an enxious moment to all parties. Every
one appeared confident of a fortunate termination In consequence of die
well known skill and experience of Mr. Key, and the excellent spi-
rits of the Chinese, which never fuorsook him until Nature became
exhausted, as the sequel will prove. It is perhaps necessary to ob-
serve that Mr. Key was assisted throughout the of oration by Sir
A. Cooper, Mr. Calloway, Mr. B. Cooper. Dr. Addison, and other
eminent individuals connected with the hospital.

Toe patient being laid on the table, reclining on pillows, the ope-
ration was commenced by making two eliptical incisions from the
outer margin of .he peduncle of the tumour to the apirous process
of the rubes on each side. The knife was then careful fotwArt! along
the upper part of the tumour, so as to raise a flop or integument.
which was turned back. A semilunar incision was then wade cm each
side, and two flaps of integument detached. These incisions exposed.
some very large subcutaneous veins, which afforded considerable bce-
inoirhage, anti were obliged to be secured by ligatures before the ope-
ration could proceed. The neck of the tan lout was next detached
from above,and the spermatic cords laid bare. The mass of the tumour
was finally dissected by a few strokes of the knife hoot toe perintettm,
and the lower flaps of the integument being turned back, it became en-
ti-ely detached from the patient's body.
During the whole of the operation the patient appeared to be un-
usually affected by the loss of blood, which, in the whole of the opera..
tion did not exceed 1G ounces, and entirely venous. The only artotes,
besides ;hose of the cords, retviring t..) be secured, %erre two small ones
at the upper ty.tt of rho swelling, from which not torte then halt an
ounce of blood escaped. The patient contimiog to le taint :tiler the
operation 1V.1% et;;;lplactls small getnitities of brandy wrie
as it had i.ten t oring its ju ogress. and time was allowtd bhp 'adore
dressing the wound to mover. In the ute.ri time, im.i.y .tentletnt n
who were present (among whuto was Sir A. Cooper) l& toe theetre, iu
ti;e expectation that he would formally rally from his faintness.
Itesh air was tilowell to blow over hint, and tram. t., • lien ions were
applied to his fe.t and chest ; bet his fainting condi,im helinnin;, at
length, to excite nip,chensioas in the mind of the sur,:etto, broody was
freely injtxtctl into the stomach, without producio.,, any tesacsion of the
heart; and it appearing evident, that witlontt sonic tin measures,
the heart's action would altogether cease, transfusion of blood was hat/
recourse to, sod eight ounces (winch wire kindly furnished by 11 medical
pupil, whose namt we are unacquainted with) vete thrown luta the vein
of the aro'. All efforts, however, proval vain, and he suck.

The question naturally arises, what other step.; could have been taken
to have ensoted success to the operation, nod a her any other toode
et* proceeding would have been attended with less risk? The great
danger apprehended by all the :Angevin aim expressed their opinions
on the subject, was the beranrrluese :hut might it:kr: place: and in the
prevention of hemorrhage the operator milord every possible precau-
tion, by securing each vessel as it was divided, and waiting a cositier.
able period at the successive stages of toe ululation, to allow him to re.
cover, and to hove support administered to him. The up eratiott thus
became delayed beyond the usual period by the above precaution. Had
the operator manifested impatience, or a wish to perform the operation
speedily at any risque to the pstient's life, he would have justly laid
himself open to censure ; but his alto was evidently to perform the
operation with as much safety and caution as the case would admit.
'We may, therefore, attribute die death of the Chinese, after the opera
tion was completed, to the shuck inflicted upon his nervous system by
the operation, and to the loss of a quantity ut venous blood, which an
ordinarily healthy European would have borne without any dangerous
effects. Thus, we regret to state, terminated an operation, upon the
issue of which the eyes of all medical men have been turned since the
arrival of Lou Mu in titi, country. elf utte thing the public may rest
assured, that no opportunity was omitted which skill and humanity
could suggest, to ',soave the life of the patient.
The tumour weighed 56 lb. avuirdupoise, besides three ur four pounds
of fluid lost during the operation. Its circumference, when detached
from the body, was exactly four feet !

When Captain Kotzebue, in his last voyage, visited the
Sandwich Islands, he found Noomabanna (the widow of his
Majesty Tameamea, who died in this country) so much in-
creased in size that he did not know her again. She was
six feet two inches high, and more than two ells in circum-
ference. On one occasion the Captain called on her at
dinner time; she was lying stretched on her prodigious
stomach lame the limiting glass tiyun some line mats; a
number of China dishes were ranged in a semicircle before
her, and the attendants a ere employed in handing first one
and then another to her Majesty. She ate voraciously,
whilst two buys flapped away the dies with large bunches
of feathers. The quatitity of foed she ate was prodigious.
After the entrance of the Captain she ate enough to satisfy
six men, and those Russians—at least the estimate is Kot-
zebue's. After she was satisfied she drew her breath two
or three times with apparent difficulty, and then exclaimed,
" I have eaten fitmouslv " By the assistarce of her at-
tendants she then turio:d on her back and made a sign to a
strong fellow, who ..e.e.ined prepared for duty. He ione-
diately sprung upon her body and kneaded her as unmerci-
fully with his knees and lists as if she had been a trough of
bread ; this was done to favour digestion. After groaning
a little at this uugentle treatment, and taking a short time
to recover herself, she ordered her royal person to be again
turned on the stomach, and recommenced her meal. Noo-
rnahanna and her fat hog are the greatest curiosities in the
islands. tfy a natural sympathy with fatness, she loves
every thing en /ion point. This -hog is black, of extraordi-
nary size, and the queen feeds him to suffocation, as other
ladies do Dutch pugs. He has two kanackas to attend upon
him, and can scarcely move from obesity.
It has been said iu nearly all the newspapers, that the
visit of Mr. C. Kemble to Paris is connected with an awk-
ward and dangerous scrape in which his eldest son bad in-
volved himself by the warmth of his zeal in the cause of
liberty. It was mentioned some time since that this young
gentleman, now about two or three-and-twenty, had joined
a party who made a sortie from Gibraltar, infringed the
neutrality of Spain, and, after an unsuccessful attempt to
excite the inhabitants to take uparms against Ferdinand, bad
again retreated to Gibraltar, where he and his companions
were put nutlet arrest. Although the personal liberty of Mr.
John Kemble has tints been restrained, we do not believe
that there is any reason to apprehend worse consequences,
and least of all such as have been recently hinted at. We
are quite confident that the journey of Mr. C. Kemble to
France has had no relation to the situation of his son, which,
however, cannot hut have given much uneasiness to his
family. We understand, on good authority, that Mr.
Charles Kemble is at present in Paris (from whence he will
return so as to act on Wednesday next), upon affairs solely
connected with the business of Covent-Garden Theatre.
was at the University of
Mr. John Kemble, his son,
Heidelberg, after he left Cambridge, and there imbibed
much of the generous but mistaken enthusiasm that often
prevails among the German students. He is a young man
of undoubted talents, and not long since, if we are correctly
informed, was a candidate for holy orders. These " per-
turbed ~spirits:' generally settle down at last into something
above the common level.--Observer.

FORDEAR.INCE OF WINDSOR.

FROM Siteettnnay.—The attempt
to which we alluded last week, and we regret to say the successful at.
tempt, to suppress, for the present, at least, all expression of
public opinion in this Town, on the subject of the Reform
Bill, has excited much speculation both in this town and else-
where, as to the " Certain Quarter," from whence the inter-
diction In question could have proceeded. We have already ex-
pressed our own sentiments regarding the measure itself too expli.
citly to render necessary any further observations on the general
question ; but, independent of the friendly feeliug which we, in
common with the vast majority of our readers, entertain ,towards
this great public measure we do feel that it would be a compere.
wise of our duty, as public journalists, if we failed to indicate the
quarter from which such dictation emanated, and to expose the
unworthy manoeuvring of a party, whose object it has doubt-
less been, by suppressing the sentiments of our townsmen in
favour of Reform, to encourage the inference that the people of
Windsor are adeer,e to the measure, and by implication, that the senti-
ments of the Sovereign—for it would of course be inferred that the
wishes of the loyal inhabitants of this borough, correspond with those
of the sovereign—that the sentiments, we say, of our Patriot King are
also unfavourable to it. To discountenance at once such an enormous
supposition—such a monstrous absurdity—but which, if left uncontra-
dieted, would not only compromise the character of our own townsmen
in the opinion of the country, but might probably rove in some de-
gree damnatory, even to the bill itself—to expose the shallow, but un-
constitutional artifice that has been resorted to on the present occa-
sion, it will be necessary only briefly to narrate a few interesting
facts that have come to our knowledge, and which we shall proceed
to do without further preface or comment. Towards the latter cud of
Febreary, a requisition, most respectably signed, wan pre-etited to our
worthy mayor, calling upon him to convene a public meeting of the in-
habitants of the Borough of New Windsor, for the purpose of taking
the sense of the town on a petition in favour of the ministerial reform
bill. Om chief magistrate. as might naturally be expected, wished for
the advice and counsel of his constituted legal adviser. This genie.
man, where informed, thought it necessary to consult Sir 11. Taylor on
the subject, wishing, it is said, to knew whether it would be fitting and
proper in the town to advocate the Reform measure. Sir Writer,
replied, that it certainly would not be pleasant to the King for the
town to put itself forward in etivoca.ing the measure. This
sage was delieered to the requisitionists, who, in consequence,
rillitln:w their names. This, we understand, to be eubstanlilly
the history of the first requisition. The re pectable iohebitants, how.
ever, far from satisfied with the vague and equivocal manner in which
the public voice had been stifled in the instance just alluded to, were
determined to make a second attempt to give expressiou to their feeliogs
and sentiments on a subject so nearly connected wi,h the Tighe' :aid li-
berties of Eitglishmen and at:cordite:ly a sewed requisition was deter-
mined on, and actually hi course of signature, when a letter was re-
ceived by William Legit, Esq. the banker (of the firm of Rianisbottont
and Legh), anti himself tine of the requisionists.- requesting that gentle-
man :o suppress the requisition then in progress, which was accordingly
done. To the latter requisition was affixed the folios in..: lettuce, be-
sides that of Mr. Legit, namely, Dr. Feee• Bridges, msmoo, M.D. Colooel hi
William Randall, E-q. Surgeon, W.
J.
Voulcs, Eq. Solicitor,
Sharp, Esq. all influential men, and of the highest respectability.

The letter-carriers could not be dispatched from the Ge-
neral Post-office, yesterday morning, until a very late hour,
in consequence of the unusual quantity of lettere arriving
by ships from various places abroad.

Sonie jarring had taken place betwixt the Viceroy of
Canton and the British Chief, in which, contrary to last year,
the Viceroy seems to have lost his temper. The Viceroy
demanded three British subjects—Parsees, born at Bombay
—who had killed a Captain M'Kenzie. The British Chief
replied that he could never surrender a British subject;
and the men were actually (and are so) sent home by the
last ship to Bombay (the Edmonstone.) The Viceroy sent
by Howqiitt a verbal message, most offensively delivered,
that if Mr. Baynes did not leave Canton in five days, he
would take military possession of the British Factory. The
British Chief sent for (by the next tide) 200 seamen and
two 18 pound carronades, which occupied the British Fac-
tory. About twelve at noon, on the 21st of October, the
Viceroy sent by Howqua, verbally again, to withdraw his
threat ! to say he was in a passion when he sent, and to
" forget and forgive." " No, (says the British Chief,) give
me a repetition of an old edict, first obtained (we believe) by
Mr. Elphinstone, saying, Your factory is your castle, and
is sacred.' "—The Bong merchants have offered their bond,
which is refused.

PANORAMA OF THE BRITISH

EMPIRE.

BIRMINGHAM JOURNAL, APRIL 9.

.....
On Monday last, one of the most numerous meetings that ever took
place In this county was held in the town of Warwick, for the purse
of supporting the Ministerial measure of Parliamentary Reform. Tile
requisitionists met precisely at eleven o'clock, at the Warwick Arms,
and from thence at twelve proceeded to the County Hall, where :hey
were met by the High Sheriff. Anticipating, however, the innu.nse
concourse which would attend, waggons were stationed in the market-
place for die accommodation of the speakersOf an adjournment should he
deemed necessary. The influx of freeholders and householders from all
parts of the rounty.was beyond all precedent,—not even excepting the
period es' s' contested election. On the arrival of the Sheriff and the
Requisitionists at the appointed place of Meeting, the numbers likely
to he present were so great, that it was resolved to adjourn to the race-
course. As soon as this determination was communicated to the dense
crowd assembled in the market-place, Ore re hide assemblage moved off
in that direction. The rush to obtain situations on the grand stand was
absolutely terrific; and it was v. hit the utmost difficulty that the gen-
tlemen appointed to take a part in the business of the day, could obtain
an entrance. A gentleman on the spot ( surveyor) calculated that about
fifteen thousand persons were present.
The resolutions were moved and seconded with ability and ingenuity
by Sir G. Chetwynd, Sir 0. Phillips, Mr. Edmonds, Mr. Attwood, and
Mr. Seholciield ; with force and eloquence by Dr. Wade, Mr. Parke.
and others; but as they were in the usual strain, and were excluded
from THE STAR by the inept...linen! mover and seconder of the last
resolution, their space is better filled by our other mutter.
ASSIZE SE I:lloNt—Wc have been favoured with the following ex-
tract Pon) the notable sermon, preached before the judges at ll'utwick,
on Sunday week. After praying foe all the constituted authorities in
church, state, and corporations, the Reverend Gentleman took his text
from the Gasp, of the day—" But the Chief Priests anti Elders per.
suaded the multitude chat they should ask Barubbas um! destroy
Jesus." In the course of this sermon, he said, " that the text was
applier hie to the resent times, when we see an infatuated
multitude led away by designing persons to their own destrtc-
tion, as we do at the present moment. From the selection of
Scripture re-pectinj the choice of Binibbaue, we cannot fail to
observe the Tons errors which a populous assembly may
1.. led iatu by titkctl. tie:A _ping, and unprincipled Individuals, who im-
rose upon the credulity of their victims and inflame their !ninth., when

d. true don tinder the specious pretext of Reform after having seen
heard, and rt./incased the harangues of designing Reform,
remarks may not seem unnecessary or uncalled for at the present mo-
ment." H.:afterwards said, " We aced nut go far from home, hr iu this

overthrown ! that tire multi:tale was deceived by its arts and insinua-
tion., anal linable to judge who were its meal and who the counterfeit

Gentleman said, " We are the Metals o' liberty,—they arc the advo-
