Surgical Operation.

The gainesville, Ohio Telegraph gives an
account of surgical operation performed by
Surgeon General Wolcott, of Milwaukee, on
a brother of General Paine, of Wisconsin.
The lung was diseased to such an extent that
the man was to all appearance far gone with
consumption, and he said himself that be
could NOT live more than two OF three weeks.
The plan was to make an opening in the
side and insert tube by which the matter
from the lung could be discharged external
ly. An opening was first made between the
sixth and seventh ribs, in front, but with no
satisfactory results; another was immediate
" made at the side, between the eighth and
ninth ribs, and with complete success. a
tube was inserted, through which matter
flowed freely. The patient stopped cough
ing at once, has gained about fifty per cent.
in weight and considers himself well. The
lung has ceased to discharge, and the tube
is taken out The operation was performed
last November This is one of the most re-
markable surgical operations of which we
have heard -Oholona (lU.) Gazette.

Heroic CoNDUcT OF MAMMALIAN The
ssRanchero" of June has letter from San
Luis Potosi, May Is, which states that pri-
vate negotiations, some days previous to the
surrender of Queretero, had been going on
between three Imperial generals and the
Liberals, to sell one Of the principal forts for
$4,000. General Miguel Lopez, who was
high in confidence with Macmillan, was the
principal actor in this treaty, and caused the
surrender.
On sending flag of truce with his sword
to Escobedo, Macmillan told him he sur
rendered Internationally, and had three IA
vors to ask. He wished not to be insulted
but to be treated as a prisoner; that if any
person was to be shot, he should be first !;
that if shot, his body should not be abused.
Macmillan and all his officers above the
rank Of captain would arrive at San Luis in
two or three days.
None were shot, and it was thought none
would be, in consequence Of the request made
by the United States.
Escobedo says that fifteen thousand pris-
oners surrendered, including thirteen gener-
al officers and five hundred officers Of inferior
grades.

New ORLEANS, June 10.-We have dates

Miramon was still dangerously i'll from
his wounds.
Mendez was executed on the 10th. by or
der of Escobedo, and Campos was shot few
hours after his legs had been amputated by
the surgeon.
Macmillan gave up his sword in person
to Escobedo saying Il surrender to you my
sword owing to an infamous treason, without
which to-morrow's sun would have seen
yours in my hands"
Escobedo had ordered court-martial to
assemble on the 10Th, for the trial of the
Emperor Macmillan. Macmillan had sent,
through Diaz, telegram to the Prussian
Minister at Mexico, to get Mariana, Riva,
Publco and licentiate Martizzi de Ia Tore
to defend him.
The official list of officers made prisoners
are Emperor Ferdinand Macmillan, Gener-
ais Miguel Miramon, Thomas Mejia, Servo

ton to his troops:
| CoUNTRYMEN After the valor and patri-
otism of the Republican forces have des-
troyed my sceptre in this place, the tenacious
defence of which was indispensable to save
the honor of my cause and Of my race: after
the bloody siege in which the Imperial and
Republican soldiers have competed in abne-
CATION and boldness, [ will explain myself.
Countrymen, came to Mexico not only an
mated with the best Of faith in insuring the
felicity of all and each of us, but called and
protected by the Emperor Of France, Napo-
leon Sd. He, to the ridicule of France,
abandoned me, cowardly and UNANIMOUSLY, by
demand of the United States, after having
uselessly spent forces and treasure and shed
the blood of her sons and your own. When
the news of my fall and death reaches Eu-
rope, all the monarchs Of Charlemagne's
country will demand Of the Napoleon dynas-
ty an account Of my blood of the German,
Belgian and French blood shed in Mexico.
This will not be the end. Soon before the
whole world Napoleon Sd will be covered
with shame from head to foot. To-Day he
has seen his majesty the Emperor Of Austria,
my august brother, praying for my life tc
the United States, and myself a prisoner Of
war in the hands Of the Republican Govern
ment with my crown and my head low and
in pieces.
Countrymen-Here are my last words
desire that my blood may degenerate Mex
leo and serve as a warning to all the ambi-
tious and incautious, and that you will act
with truthfulness and prudence and ennoble
with your virtues the political cause of the
flag you sustain.
May Providence save you and make you
worthy Of myself.

Coon ADVICE TO MECHANICS. -A north
ern exchange advises every mechanic to buy
house lot-if possible an acre. It says if
the spot is not inviting it may be made SO
by trees, shrubbery and cultivation. The
paper from which we quote says:
Secure the land and your credit will at
once be raised fifty per cent. A mechanic
living on rent throws away all the improve
ments he may make He accumulates little
or no capital around him. On the other hand,
when he has home he can call his own,
everything he does counts something. All
his labors cluster around one common centre.
He has home of his own and it is his pride
and pleasure to adorn it to the best Of his
ability.
It also says that the boundaries and the
wealth of every village could be increased if
farm adjacent thereto could be bought and
cut up into house lots and sold at reasonable
rates to all who may desire to occupy them.

Autumn Days.

When autumn days come, Nature, like a
retired merchant, changes its manner from
thrift and bustling industry to langqid lei
sure and to oStentatlOus luxury SE4,fle sun
rises later and sets earlier than when it
had all the summers crops on hand, and
was playing universal husbandman. There
IS no nest building now, and no bird sing
1ng-which is purely domestic arrange
ment, designed, on the birds part, to keep
peace in the family while the children are
being raised, and laid aside as soon as the
young birds are off their hands. Mornings
come fieeced in mists, which hang over
streams and low, moist places. The sun
plays with them, but they perish in chis
arms. A few belated flowers yet keep
watch, but chiefly the asters. which fringe
the fields, star the edges of forests, and like
a late conner at feast, seem bent upon
making up for the lost time. At
nights, crickets and katy dds scrape
their shrill viols and fill the air with
stridulous music. Over all the shrinking
fields, the trees lift up their gorgeous foli-
age, and, like those who wait for the mar
riage bell and the bridegroom, they shine
out in glorious apparel. The hills, forest
clad. are become the Lords young sons,
and, like Joseph, they are dressed in coat
OF many colors. October days, short be-
tween horizons, reach higher into the vault
than any days of the year, and through
them che seasons seem to look with soften
ed sadness, as one who, in the calm of age,
meditates on all the mistakes of his past
life, and solemnly thinks upon the advanc-
ing future. Along the fence rows, where
seeds and late berries may be found, birds
hop silently, as If ashamed to be SEEM
Soon they will change their solitary ways
and collect in hocks. To-day, the fields
will swarm with them; tomorrow, there
will not be one left. and they will be pick
ing their food many degrees of latitude
