BOSTON, July 18.

bOSiON3 JULY 10.
1t appears by notice of the Super
iaiendant of Burial Grounds that the
whole number of deaths ia this city, on
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, was
Al. viz: on Monday l2, on Tuesday 90,
: and on Wednesday 7. About twenty
five Of these were caused by excessive
fatigue in the extreme heat of the day,
OF an imprudent use of cold water.
The Providence Journal states thai
> the excessive heat of Monday and Tues
day was fatal to the fish in Brush Pond,
. in CransIon. This pond is about three
acres, and the water between two and
three feet in depth; yet so Intense was
the heat that all the fish therein were
suffocated several hundred perch, pick
erel, &c. some weighing a pound and
half, were found floating on the surface
Of the water, and large quantities were
taken from the bottom, without any
signs Of life.
It is mentioned that the heat also oc-
casioned the death of myriads of fish in
Concord river.

The Stamford News, an English Journal ofre-
speetability, has the following remarks on
the late Presidential election.
A Contrast.-John Quincy Adams,
President of the United States, is the
son of the second President that ever
ruled over America, the we'll known
and peaceful successor of Washington
the Numa of the United States; and, if
we may judge from the principles which
he has taken the first occasion of testify-
ing, he is well worthy of the honor
which such an elevation confers. The
manly plainness and simplicity of the
form of bis Inauguration deserves notice.
Think of the childish ceremonies, the
idle pageantry, the ridiculous hummer
les, the holy oil, the feathers, furs, and
trumpery of a coronation in Europe, as
contrasted with this digniied scene At
Washington, in the capitol, Mr.. Adams,
in plain suit Of black, ascends the
Speakers chair, pronounces his address
to his fellow-citizens, walks 10 the table
of the Judges, and on volume Of the
laws of the United States reads his oath
of office, and thus the magistrate of a
mighty State is installed. Look on this
picture, and then on that.'-If, as En-
glishmen, we blush at the comparison in
one respect, we feel glow of exulta-
ton in another, at the thought of the
superior wisdom and truer greatness of
that country, which owes, al any rate,
its birth TO ours. America is the child
of England, and is, perhaps, destined TO
perpetuate the memory Of its parent,
who should feel nothing like envy and
Jealousy at the endowments of its illus
trious offspring, and still less exhibit
any thing like derision at the imperfec-
lions of her incipIent constitution and
policy, whilst here we are submitting
TO such things as the sir acts, the 1.-THE
system, a standing urmy, and an enormous
taxation; and our neighbors, the Irish,
TO military lac and religious persecution.

The lungs should be gradually inflated by
means of bellows introduced into the mouth.
These remedies should be persevered in till a
physician arrives. Instances of resuscitation
by these means have been known after the
body had lain an hour.

this week, TO say any thing on this subject,
more than to remind our friends, that the
election is at hand, being on the first day Of
next month, at which time, the friends of an
able representation are expected to do their
duty, remembering that Hercules would moi
assist the WAGNER, who called upon him, till
he had first put his own shoulder to the wheel.

prevented. by his having been rolled on a

Many other cases might be cited where life

If so, there can be no question but that, If

might have been saved.

SURGICAL OPERATION.

A surgical lAperation was lately performed
IN RavennoHUhio, which on account of its
practical behehts, is deemed Of sufficient inn
portance to justify passing notice. Theory
may do much in the discovery Of truth but
truth discovered and not revealed, or if re-
vcaled in a manner unintcligible, is Of lit
tie use in the practical business oflife. Those
only who reduce theory to practice, or who
found theory OIL practice, are the real bene-
factors of their profession, and of mankind
AS the operation in this case was difficult
and novel, and has also been successful, jus.
tice to skilful surgery, as well as profession
al utility, demand public notice.

On the 18th of September last, by inatten-
ton, it became strangulated, and it remain
ed down until the aperture became strlctur-
ed.-Surgical aid was then sent for, but too
late to replace the intestine. After several
unsuccessful attempts to reduce the iniiam-
nation by the icris,it was thought best to op-
crate. as the only probable means OF saving
the life of the patient. The operation was
accordingly performed by opening the chest
in the unibi!icai region, by an inclsson OF
about six inches in length, by which 1t was
discovered that the intestine was mortihed
to the extent Of eight inches 10 remove
the mortified part it was found necessary to
remove the intestine to the extent OF eiSht
inches and half, together with the messenfa-
NJ. or fat skirting the part, and whieh at
taches the intestines to each other. Inc
enls were then brought together and fastcn.
ed by four stitches, and the inclslon sewcd
IN. To the astonishment OF all knowing
the fact, in four weeks from the day OF the
opcration, the patient rode two miles to at
tend cattle show and fair in this village,
and is now able to attend to his ordinary bu-
siness
The opcraton was more difficult OH ac-'
count OF strong adhesion ot the Heniol
suc to the muscle, and the structure was
situated high up in its mouth. In cutting the
,icssento,,ic artery was divided, which rem
dered the operation nr-.c tedious and trou-
blcsomc.
The patient is man of about ffty-scven
years of age, and of those habits which tend
greatly to increase the hazard. and preju-
dice the issue of such operations.
The operation was performed BY DR. Jo-
scph Dewolf. ofthis village. From the result
no comments need be made on the skill Of
the operator.
