Dumbness cured by Steam.-Between two
and three months ago, young girl, who be-
longs to respectable family in Edinburgh,
lost her voice and became completely dumb,
in consequence Of an Inflammation of the
lungs. The most eminent Of the faculty there
declared that they could do nothing for her.
Her friends resolved that she should take the
advice of Sir Ashley Cooper, and about a
month ago she embarked on board the Edin-
burg Castle steam packet for that purpose
The machinery of the engine became dcrang-
ed on her way, and an alarm was spread
amongst some of the female passengers that
the boiler was about TO burst. The fright Of
the poor girl was so great as 10 have power.

go years ago, Mr.. Van Amburgh, now a
resident Of Bath, was severely afflicted
with rheumatic affection of the righl
shoulder; this was succeeded by an
eroStosis, or bony tumour on the superb
or part of the os humeri, near the shout
der joint, from which however he suf-
fered no serious Inconvenience. About
a years ago, the pain returned with
more aggravated symptoms. Another
bony tumour appeared near the centre
of the same bone almost simultaneous
with the appearance of the secand tn
mour appeared third at the centre of
the bone, assuming very different fea-
lures from the two former; this was
soft, elastic, irregular, and, at times.
extremely painful; in its appearance,
nearly allied TO the fungus hematodes,
of the books. This tumour gradually
increased in size, until ii extended from
the elbow to the shoulder joint, and
measured upwards of 24 inches circum-
ference. A consultation of surgeo ns
was had on the occasion, when it was
decided that an amputation at the shout
der joint was the only means of saving
the life of the patient. The unfortu-
nate individual preferred risking the
consequences of an operation 10 the
longer endurance of that excruciating
agony with which for months he had
been afflicted. The operation was per-
formed on the 18th October by DR.. ].
Lee, of Milo, assisted by Dgs. Warden,
Rogers, and Birdsall. In two weeks the
wound was almost healed, and at this
time Tins. I'll the patient enjoys better health

a Surgical Operation, of a novel
character, was recently performed in
Rayenna, Portage county, by DR.. Jo-
seph Dewolf, on a certain Mclaughlin,
of that town. The patient, according TO
the Western Courier, bad been for a
number of years afflicted with the dis
ease known by the name of inguinal
hernia. On the 18th of September,
in consequence of neglect, it became
sttangulated, and subsequently strictured.
Surgical aid was then called in, but it was
too late TO replace the intestines, and
every attempt TO reduce the infamma-
ton proved unsuccessful. As the only
means of saving the life of the patient,
an operation was determined on. The
chest was opened in the umbilical re-
gion, and the intestine being found NOR
tilted to the extent of eight inches. it
was found necessary to remove the dis
eased part, together with the mesentery
connected with it--an operation ex-
tremely hazardous, and which was rem
dered still more difficult in this case, in
consequence of the strong adhesion OF
the herniel sac to the muscle, and the
necessity of dividing the meseutric arte-
ry. The ends of the intesrines were
then brought together, and secured by
four stitches, and the external incjsiou
sewed up. Four weeks after the opera.
