ENGRAVING Rat Skin on a Mans
Hip.

The Louisville Daily Ledger of the Goth
ult. says a somewhat novel surgical opera
ton was recently performed by Dr. Hawn,
of fLeavenworth, Indianna A young man
named Murchison, living in Meade county,
KY, met with a terrible accident while
working in q saw mill, by means of which a
piece of skin as large as the bottom of I
tin cup WAS torn from his hip. DR.. Hawn
was called to the case Knowing the ox-
treme difficulty experienced by surgeons in
getting injuries of the kind to heal properly,
the doctor was at loss how to proceed.
1t is well known that where large surface
of skin has been removed the cure is tedious
and difficult to accomplish. Nothing but
skin win produces Rew skin, and the exposed
surface will not heal further than inch from
the margin, after which the edges must be
trimmed again and q new growth started
the operation being repeated as often as nee.
essaTy, until the entire surface is covered
and the cure effected Not wishing to sub
ject his patient to this tedious and painful
process, Dr.. II. resolved to try the expert
LuOAlS VI OLlkIdANAGlOL Ills HEob luO6 was 10
take small bits of live skin from various
other parts of the body and graft them on
the exposed surface, but the patient OBJ
jected, on account of the pain attending the
skinning process, and the multitude of sore
places which would be left. The doctor
chen suggested that portion of the skin of
some inferior animal might be used, and the
patient readily consented. A rat, about two
thirds grown, was caught, killed, and quick
ly skinned, after which the doctor cut a
piece of the requisite size, trimmed it to suit
the exposed surface, cIapped it on, and fast
ened it with strips of adhesive plaster, after
which the whole surface was covered with a
coating of cOllOdion. The experiment sue
ceeded beyond the most sHnguine expecta-
tons. The graft took by frat intention, and
in ten days the cure was complete.
The surface of the wound is covered with
fine growth of hair, and the rat skin seems
to answer every purpose.

or of the veterinary department of the West,
ern Rural, recommends as a euro for cohe
in horses an ounce OF sui phuric ether, and
a like quantity Of the tincture of opium, in
q pint Of bepid water as dose. If one dose
does not afford relief, administer another af-
ter the lapse of half an hour In hatulenI
collie great benefit is obtained by the fre-
quent administrations of iniectiens, and
they are also serviceable when she colo
arises from Indigestion, which it frequently
does seven or eight drachms of aloes
should also be given, as this will remove
any irritating substances from the intestines
which may have given rise to the colo. He
condemns the practice Of running horses
about under the spur and whip, as is soms-
times praeticed as a means of relief-and
states that quietude is much better than en-
forced excitement in such cases.
