bic Surgical Operation.

The Philadelphia Ledger relates that this
operation, which consists in the actual trans
fer of the blood of one living body into the
veins Of another, has been recently per-
formed 10 the Pennsylvania Hospital, under
the following circumstances:
A young man in the upper part OF the
city was wounded on the inner surface of
the upper lip, by tripping and falling on the
fragments of pitcher which he had been
carrying in his hand. The wound contIn-
ued to bleed for ten days, after which the
patient was seht TO the surgical wards OF
the hospital, which were, at the time. under
the charge of DIR. 7. G. Norton. Several
remed dies were then applied, and the arteries
supplying the face were tied, but without
success in controlling the flow of blood. =
Recourse was next had to cutting do Sn to
the common carotid or great artery Of tho
neck, and applying ligature, so as to OBJ
struct entirely the course of the blood In ii.
This was done on the 18Th Of October last.
The oozing of blood still continued, but In
lessened quantity. @
Ga the the following day, or the 10Th,
the patient was In such a state Of extreme
exhaustion from the long continued hem
Orrhage that his death seemed 10 Do immi-

resolved to try the effect of transfusi)n.--
We shall not pretend to describe the appa-
ratus used ON the occasion, or the details OF
the operation. Let il suffice for us to say
that two medical students barred their arms
and gave the blood required for the occas-
ion. Five ounces and a half of their blood
were infused into the vein of each arm
of the patient, the marked good ct.
