Unparalleled Surgical Operation.

On Monday, December 2, ult., a sur
gical operation was performed by Drs.
Cable and Walters, Of Pittsburg, Pa,
which is without a parallel. A young
man, residing In Steubenville, Ohio,
was so unfortunate as to get a mouth
plate with five teeth thereon fastened
in his throat. Medical assistance was
summoned, and air efforts to withdraw
the plate were unsuccessful, and the
physicians In attendance pushed the
plate further down into the outlet.
The patient suffered greatly, aud eff
forts were made to employ n surgeon
that would undertake to cut the man
open and recover the plate, but a sur
geon could not be found in the city
who would risk the delicate operation.
Finally, Drs. Cable and Walters, OF
Pittsburg, consented to perform the
operation. Chlorotorm was admins
tered to the patient, aud an incision
was made in the neck, and the surgeon
cut steady to the top Of the stomach.
In the language Of DR.. Cable, "the
mans heart was beating against my
right hand, while the lungs and AFTER
les were throbbing against my left
hand. An Instrument was Inserted
aud the plate successfully removed"
Our informant. a printer IN our Office,
lett Pittsburg, OIL the seventh day after
the operation, and the patient was re-
covering rapidly, and a later report
by letter informs him that he is entire
~ out Of danger.

A Silent Game.

Scene In a restaurant at Brussels
Two persons sitting at n table, face to
face, each with a mug OF beer before
him, each with face resting on his
hand, intently watching the table, in
profound silence. Fifteen minutes
passed, when suddenly one Of the par
ties remarked, ~ have won," and the
other handed over to him q piece oil
money. The silence and attention
were resumed, when, after ten or tif-
teen minutes, tho same party made
the same exclamation, and there was
another transfer Of money-and so on
for more than an hour. An impulsive
Frenchman was looking on and Won
dering. At last, unable to restrain
himself, he rushed to the proprietor to
know what those two silent people
we're doing. ut would seem that they
are playing some game but what
There is absolutely nothing OH the
table but two mugs-no cards. no dice.

which first attracts a fly, wins. The
one who gets slyly n little powdered
sugar OH his drop is winning all the
Others money"

Coal In Utah.

The Territory Of Wyoming is known
to be very rich in coal, most Of which
Is OF a bituminous character. But for
various reasons this coal makes little
Impression OH the market of San Fran
cisco. A single coal company in Wy
oming have The inside track-that Is,
they make such terms with the rail-
road company as to practically ex-
clude other companies from compe-
tition.
Low grades of soft coal are gener-
ally abundant In this market. But the
best quality Of bituminous coal and all
hard Goals command at all times high
prices. Up to this time no anthracite
coal has been discovered In California,
although there have been frequent re-
ports that such coal had been found.
The Salt Lake Tribune claims that
Utah Is richer In coal Of all grades
than any of the adjoining territories.
1t hopes to find a market In the State
of Nevada alone for 800 to 600 tons
daily. The same authority states that
anthracite coal Is abundant In Utah.
That Is the very coal wanted In all tho
larger towns Of California. Every
country blacksmith wants 1t, and must
have It at any price. The most for
midable item, except Iron, Is the
Smiths bill for coal. II Utah can fur
nish a good quality of anthracite coal,
there would be no limit to the market.
Probably the search has been sharper
for hard coal on this coast within the
last two years than for any other min
eral. IT Utah has found 1t, there ought
to be- enterprise enough there to lay 1t
| down IN this market,

New Discovery Near the Comstock
Ledge.

The Superintendent Of the Mint
mine arrived yesterday from Virginia
City, bringing a quantity Of ore taken
from the SHAFT of tho above named
mine, ut q depth of about ninety feet,
and assaylrg from $40 to $1,000 to
the ton. Much Of this orc consists Of
black sulphurets Of silver, similar to
the richest that have been found In any
of the Comstock mines. The extent OF
the ledge, where 1t has been struck,
covers the whole Of the bottom of the
shaft, which Is four feet square ; but Its
entire size has not. yet been ascer-
tanned, as the holsting machinery thus
far provided has only suliced to keep
the shaft clear Of water, a heavy flow
of which commenced upon striking the
ledge. Additional facilities for hoist
ing out ore and water, and for properly
developing the mine, will promptly be
erected. Many OF the specimens above
alluded to, which may be seen at the
office of J. Il. 5. Latham & Co., No.
All California street, are pronounced
by those competent to decide to be rs
rich ore as has been found In the Com
stock lode. The shaft Is situated about
400 yards southeasterly from the Saw
age mine, aud 700 yards from the
Gould s. Curry. This remarkable dis.
covery cast OF the Comstock opens q
new Held Of development and cxplo-
ration In that direction. The existing
contract provides for sinking the shaft
to q depth Of $50 feet, which will de-
termine the question of another vslua-
BILE ledge. +. Alta, FEB. 9Th.

Fluming Enterprise.

We understand, says the Truckee
Republican Of February 9Th, that a
number of capitalists contemplate
building a flume next Spring from
Lake Tahoe to Truckee, following the
course of the river. The ilume will be
built for the purpose Of floating lum-
Der, railroad ties, mining tiInbers,
wood and single blocks. mud perhaps
saw logs. The distance from the lake
to Truckee. by the way of the river, is
fifteen miles. 1t is matter Of sur
prise that such an enterprise has not
been carried into effect ere this. The
grade from the lake down Is very even
and only SO feet to the mile. There
are no engineering difficulties In the
way OF running a flume from Lake
Tahoe to Steamboat Springs, only
about ten miles from Virginia City.
The distance from the lake by way OF
the Truckee river to Reno, and from
thence to Steamboat Springs, Ia about
65 miles. In order to get sufficient
fall, the flume would leave the river a
short distance above Reno. Floating
lumber, timber, wood, etc., from Lake
Tahoe to a point so near Virginia City
as Steamboat Springs, Is nm enterprise
that Is perfectly feasible. and Is quite
likely to be soon carried into effect.

OssIAN L. DODGE, the famous comic
vocalist Of fifteen or twenty years ago,
and more recently a citizen Of st.
Paul, Minnesota, has thought 1t advis-
able to get divorced from Mrs. Dodge,
and happily succeeded In doing so.
In a law suit regarding the custody Of
the children. he makes this solemn state
ment oil oath: "Ever since she was
married she has kept a six-barreled
loaded revolver in her possession, with
which she has a great many times
threatened to blow my brains out and
to shoot me-" He further deposed
that Mrs. Fanny was In the habit OF
beating the son whose custody she
now desires, over the head with a
bathing-brush 20 inches long, and so
severely as to break the handle Of the
brush" When this weapon was not
at hand. the affectionate mother used
the tongs. Mrs. ID. evidently made
things pretty hot in that family occa-
sionally and no doubt was up to lodges
that kept Ossian dodglng rather lively
occasionally. Dodge Is hardly to be
be blamed for wanting to be divorced
out of that infelicitous union.
