The operation will be communicated to some Of
the professional journals Of the country; but in
the mean time, it deserves to be particularly
brought to the notice of our lsilow-cizens of the
District as most conclusive evidence that they
need not go abroad in search of su peror surgical
or medical skill and science. The tumor, pre-
served in spirits, may be seen at the drug store Of
