Is an ingenious arrangement Of ,redectors By
which concentrated light may be thrown
into 1he throat. Thc invention comea to us
from Germany, and bears the name Of Dr..
Czefmak. ALI physicians who pay special at
tcntion to diseases Of the throst and lungs
employ this apparatus, md 4 course Of free

instrument, nre now going on In one of the
Dependencies Of the school medicine. Various
models Of this instrument are in uee, and
mnch discussion is going on and Will 60 on

on the best model. Dr. Ward of. Nav Yorlz,
lately brought through this city, on his way
home from Berlin, very complete aud very
costly laryngoscope> Of Berlin manufacture,
which he will no doubt be glad to show his
eonftercs-but ought to state here that these
first Instruments are too complicated and
costly-tDr. Ward's, believe, cost $22Q0}-nnd
that already q simpler, cheaper, and quite as
effective IN instrument Inns been constructed.
The invention Of the lar5ngoscopch has brought
with 1t an increased energy in the study of the
pathology and treatment Of aiseases of the

great merit Of Dr.. Horace Green of New York

applying remedies directly to this organ. To.
