SURGICAL OPERATION AND ITS FATAL
REsULT.-On last Monday, a son OF Mr..
Banks, of Cedar county, six years OF
age, while cracking and eating some
hickory nuts, swallowed piece Of one
OF the shells. All the usual remedies
were resorted to, but without success.
On Tuesday morning, DIR. Chambers, OF
Upton, was called. His efforts to re-
move the foreign substance from the
trachea were also unsuccessful. When
it was resolved that the poor little
fellow should be brought to this city.
He was accordingly brought by
his father and uncle, to DR.. Reeder,
who tried all the usual remedies,
emetics, the probing, &C., but without
effect. The DR.. seeing that an opera
ton would be required, frankly told
those having the boy in charge, the
dangers attending such an operat on,
and by their consent, Drs. b. w.
Thompson and Risley were called, and
on consultation, surgical operation
was decided upon. After repeated tests
with the stethoscope place of incisson
was decided on, but unfortunately during
the operation the boy died. He was
| very leak and his breath came with
much difficulty before the physicians
commenced the operation, so much so in
fact, that stimulants were necessary,
and the case was considered one that
life depended on the success of the in
cison. Just about the time one of the
pieces was reached, the boy expired.
On farther examination, it was found
that there was another piece Of the shell
lodged in another part of the wind-pipe,
which would probably caused his death
eventually, even had they been success
ful in removing the first one. The feel
ings Of the poor mother on having her
child brought home to her corpse, we
will leave our readers to imagine, as our
pen would be inadequate to do the
task Of describing them, and we hope
that it will be warning to all mothers
who are careless about the conduct and
actions OF their children. A very slight
thing in this instance has caused the
death of dearly beloved child.-Nus-

The Dubuque Herald calls upon the
Republicans to hurrah for Lincoln, and
produces the following cogent reasons
why they should do so
Fifty millions of dollars have been lost
by the panic in New York, to say moth
ing of what has been lost throughout
the country. Now hurrah for Lincoln
Twenty-Five thousand persons have
lost their employments in New York in
consequence of Lincoln's election. Now
huIrah for Lincoln.
Banks have suspended in several OF
the Eastern, Southern and Western
States. Now hurrah for Lincoln.
The currency of NEST Banks is at a
discount throughout the country. Now
hurrah for Lincoln.
Exchange on New York cannot be
bought at any point for less than five
per cent. Now hurrah for Lincoln.
Business is suspended throughout the
country, and the price of farm produce
is gone down more than twenty per
cent, in currency that is not worth
more than eighty cents on the dollar
Farmers who hurrahed for Lincoln,
hurrah for him now.
The Union, which was constructed
by the wisdom and cemented together
by the blood and friendship of the Rev.
olutionary Patriots, and preserved hith
erto uubroken by the policy ofthe Dem
ocratic party, is about to be disrupted
in consequence of the aggressive course
OF sectional party, whose organization
is perfected by the election Of their can
didatc to the Presidency. Hurrah then
for Lincoln, We who care less for the
Union than for the success of section
al party.

A YOUNG widow woman who gave
her maiden name as Catharine Hall.
aud said she was from New ALBANY,
lud., was killed in attempting to get
upon the New Albany train at Green
castle, the other day, after the train was
in motion. She said that she had been
to Kansas under promise Of marriage,
and being grossly deceived and desert
ed, she had started home penniIess and
alone, stealing rides until the conductors
put her off, and begging food at sta
tons until the next train came along.
She had got nearly home, and having
been put off this train, had run back and
caught hold OF the rear car to steal a
ride little further. She welcomed her
death.

on credentials.
All the States except South Carolina and
Oregon were represented.
