"Surgical."

To the Editors Of the Wheeling IntelRgencer:
GENTs:-I accidentally called in yesterday,
with friend to see that noble hearted, talented
and skilful surgeon. doctor Hullihen. Just as we
entered his Office he was preparing for '.plastic
operation"-to put new nose on the face of one
of the of the Emerald Isle, who in one of his
fits ofchyalry had the mis- fortune to lose his nasn
protuberance.
Wehaye been witness to many surgical opera
tons, but to none where the surgeon handles The
knife with that mechanical skill anu judgment that
DR.. Hullihen does. He at once sees his case
marks his lines with the eye-cuts the flaps, and
fits them together, so that not wrinkle is left,
much less place to tell where the flaps, that
male the nose, came from.
We were amused to hear an Irishman, who look
ed at his friends nose, after the operation was per-
formed, ask the DR.. "will you place Misther Doc
tor to tell me where you got that nose-'pon my
soul IFS as good as ever it was" thought when
looking at this case, after it was over that it was
small matter whether man was born in the good
city of Wheeling, with or without nose, provi-
ded Doctor Hullihen was about. Truly we are
fortunate with such man as DR.. Hullihen.
