Wom,icrs or Modern Surgery.

The following IL a briei summary Of an article
IA a late .iftdHhc Monthly, on the recent disco
vctirs and improvement IN surgery
By the local application Of sufficient dcgrc oi
cold, insensibility can be- produced in any de-
sired part, 50 that q mnn with a most exqusi,e!y
painful wound on the arm or feion ON the finger
can now look down, in his prrf,C, sense. upon
ihc Knife ..s it enters his own body and performs
the mos, difficult operations without giving him
the least pain.
\ French surgeon has invented nn instrumt "a
he calla the 'ectascur' OF Ctushcr, TO perform
operations dangerous ia surgery Un acCoun; ~
the loss Of blood from the smaller vessels IL per
formed with - knife. !, is formed OF fine chain
gathered inio loop, which incloses the raii to
be removed, Hnd by turning a screw the chain is
ilgh,cucd till the parts are separated. The blum;
chain so turns up or twists the ends OF the blood
vessels that heinofhage Is prevented.
The eye Is now examined by an instrument
called the Op,halmascoIc, by which the depih. Of
the globe Of the eye eau be readily aud fully rx.
ploTed, and through It's aid great deal OF what
has been written and conjeeiured about disease
Of the eye has been found 10 be wrong The n.
iticaie passages Of the car, the nose, the whole Of
the windpipe and passages Of the lungs are now
carefully explored.
Perhaps one Ofihe best results " modern science
has been through what is called conservative :
surgery the rule Of which is TO save all that
possibly can be saved from the Ampuiation knife
Many OF ouT brave soldiers complained Of the
reckless haste with which, in the late war, some
surgeons would cut cif arms and legs on account
Of iriaing wounds. The complain, Was oiica
Just But one OF the most distinguished surgeons
IN the world has lately written al King :
College il is rare TO see an amputalion in nine
cases out Of ten cxcision Tor the cutting out of
the diseased portion OF the limb should be per.
formed in iis stead.
4 poor boy at the wes, MAS caught under a
falling log, and bis ley broken and twisted upon
itself at right angels with his thigh the bones
protruding the flesh, aud no doctor near lie
lived. and after weeks Of suffering was taken TO
a hospital. Modern conservative surgery, instead
OF ampuia,ng the limb, as the old fashioned
surgery would have done, sawed OF the protrud-
ing bones turned the leg back again to iis place,
and put on an instrument TO keep IL Of equal
