The writer Of this paragraph Witnessed on
Saturday morning one OF the most appalling
and painful operations ever performed upon
any living human being, and while IL reflects
credit upon the surgeon, and does honor TO
tho country, II serves Az a convincing proof
TO suffering humanity, that while there -
life, there Is hope, and that none need despair
even in the most aggravated forms OF disease.
The operation above referred to, was per-
formed by DIR. Mott with his usual skill and
ntrepidity. The subject Of il was \ young
man abou. &c years Of age, who had been
for a long time afflicted with stone, and which
had increased with unprecedented rapidly,
until Il attained size so great as 10 occupy
the whole OF the bladder in its distended state
yet, wonderful TO relate, this huge MASS was
entirely and successfully removed. Several
attempts were made by the surgeon, both 10
crush il and to drill il into pieces, in order
that il might be taken away with greater IA
cllity. rs we'll rs with more safety TO the in
diyiduaI; but these efforts were all abortiye
leaving no alternative but that OF charging
the wound, and removing il entire.
Since the operation, the patient has been
doing we'll. and bids fair 10 recover The
stone was ascertaincd, immediately after, 70
weigh IL or. 3dwts. avoirdupois, which Is
nearly double that Of any other ever taken
from the human subject, while living. Sir
Ashley Cooper has remarked, in his lecture
that eight or nine ounces is the largest size
that can pass the bony structure in the grips
Of the forceps, which Is mentioned for the
purpose OF conveying, IL possible, to the mind
Of the reader, an idea Of the great difficulty
and danger necessarily attending so importan,
an operation. a FrisRS to Merit.
