MISCELLANY. :.
The Eme,al

Ono wintry afternoon in January, away

EI- The following notice ofa surgical
operation upon a young North Csrolini-
an, performed by distinguished son Of
that State, we find in the last Baltimore
Saturday Night
"a brilliant surgical operation was
performed In our city recently by DR..
Edward Warren, Professor Of Surgery in
the College Of Physicians aud Sur
geons, which from its intricacy and
happy results deserves notice.
"A youth named Aquilla Hyman, from
North Carolina, seine sixteen years Of
age, was brought to Baltimore by his
home physician in search Of surgical aid.
A large tumor had formed in the back
part Of his nose and made its way down.
ward to the throat, nearly filling up that
locality. The poor boy was reduced to q
mere skeletO and suffered intensely.
"He had not slept more than few
minutes at time for ten consecutive
days and nights, and could with great
difficulty swallow only small quantities
of liquids. His breathing WAS 80 diff
cult as to place him in constant danger
Of suffocation.
Several attempts had been made to
relieve this youth, but without success,
and when first seen by professor Warren,
he seemed on the verge Of death. Emi.
nent surgeons deemed an operation real
ly impossible, supposing that the size
and concealed position of the tumor
would render its removal exceedingly
difficult and hazardous Undaunted hsw-
ever, aud full of confidence, the task was
undertaken and successfully performed
by Professor Warren
"The difficulties attending it were
heightened from the necessity Of invent
ing and having manufactured the requir.
ed instruments. The boys windpipe had
to be opened by 'tracheaetomy,' several
hours in advance, 80 that enough air by
artificial means might enter his lungs to
enable him to Ii Q up to and during the
operation. Some parts Of the tumor
were removed through the nose and 9TH
ers through the mouth,
"Tho operation a truly painful and in
tricsto one, lasted three hours. 1t was
performed in room at Barnum's hotel,
and witnessed by quite number Of per
sons who expressed great wonder At be-
holding the cyoung sufferer, thus rescued.
from almost certain death. 40 he could
scarcely have survived forty eight hours
longer. He was subsequently sent to
the infirmary in view Of receiving more
careful attention there, and Is now doing
we'll, and will return home in few days
perfectly relieved.
"Prof Warren, It may be rscollected,
10 tho gentleman who distinguished him.
self as an expert at the trial OF Mrs.
Wharton, originating the +" Cerebro Spi-
nal Meningitis theory. He certainly
exhibited marked skill in the operation
above mentioned"

Why No DANCING rs ALLOWED IN
PoNDicHERRY The governor or the
French colony Of Pondicherry, in India
has forbidden the inhabitants to dance
basing his prohibition merely on patriot
ic grounds. He maintains that no French
man should dance so long AZ the hated
Prussians occupy any portion OF the
"sacrcd soil " Of France, and any cheer
tul person who is discovered INDUCING
in graceful movements to the sound OF
music incurs his excellenoy's serious dis.

but it is thoroughly French. The poor
votaries Of Terpsiehore will have to in

stealth or forego II altogether The
governors dispeasure is Of far too great
moment to provoke The governor hlr-
self sets an example Of wholesome aus
