Surgical Science.

A very remarkable medical case has
come to our knowledge, and we have
seen no account of it thus far in the
journals Of the profession. A lady liv-
ing in Allston was troubled with some
affection of the throat. The doctors pro-
nouncedit bronchial, and recommended
a trip to the South. She obtained no re-
lief from the climate, and on her way
b 'ck consulted an eminent physician in
Baltimore, who said that tumor had
formed inside the windpipe. On reach
ing home she communicated this opin-
ion to her physician here and after con-
sultation the doctors decided such to be
the fact. The lady placed herself in
charge of some of the best medical talent
in this city for the treatment of her case,
which was becoming very serious. Ii
was with great difficulty that she could
swallow anything, and her breathing
was becoming more and more obstruct.
ed. 1t was decided that the tumor mus,
be removed, though such an operation
as taking tumor from the inside of q
windpipe was unknown, and an instru.
ment must be invented for the purpose
A tube was putin the windpipe below the
diseased spot, and the throat subjected
to course of Education" for the oper
alton. An instrument was devised hay
ing at the end O combination of claws
which could be worked from the otbe,
end, so as to be closed firmly over tn,
tumor, and an arrangement was mad,

Babes Before the Bar OF Justice.

There was very peculiar case III
Judge Wilson's court this morning, both
in the character of the offenders and the
oddness of their misdemeanor. Along
about the hour of IL o'clock Prosecutor
Murphy called out: "Thomas Piquet,
James Alfont, Ira Goblin, Theodore
Liefert," and four infantile prisoners
stood up before the bar of justice, and
eight little fists went up into eight little
eyes and nearly rubbed them out, while
salty tears, as large as fall peas, rolled
down into four little mouths.
"Officer Bennecaste, take the stand !"
said the prosecutor, and then turning to
the four boys asked: Are you guilty
or not guilty ?"
"Please, sir, we Dunno" sobbed the
juvenile quartet.
Then the vigilant officer went on to
state how he had caught the boys drop
ping powders into Farmer Bragenbush' s
we'll, out OH the Colerain pike, and that
the farmer was complaining about his
well being filled up, and, having caught
the miscreants in the very act, he had
brought them right into court. The
officer was then told to sit down, and the
Judge took the case in hand.
"Now, my little men," queried his
Honor, and there was sunny smile illu-
minating his handsome face, "tell me
why you threw those stones in that
mans we'll ?"
The four little boys turned their tear
believed eyes upon each other, and
then, as if by common consent of the
other three, little Ira Goblin, the eldest
of the young culprits, answered in a
quavering voice
please, sir, we wuz only doing it in
fun. Jimmie and me carried the stones,
and them other boys dropped 'em down
the well. We got tired sliding down a
soaped board, and we only dropped the
stones cause we liked to hear 'em go
kerchuck into the water" And eight
little eyes again shed tears of sorrow.
In his kindness of heart his Honor LET
them go with warning.-Cinci,mati

MIR. PONGO.
Something About London's Pet Gorilla.
[From the London Spectator.l

From the London SPECTATOR
! Mr.. Pongo is in excellent health now,
| but has had two illnesses since he was
sold to DIR. Falkenstein, of the Prussian
Natural History expedition, for two gal
Ions of rum, and exchanged his chain in
an African village for the more tolerable
condition of his European career.
Perhaps he was too young when the
hunters took him to have any dreams
now of the deep, cool, dark forest. the
great luscious fruits, the glorious climbs
and bounds and fights, the long migrat-
ing journeys Of the gray-coated commun-
ity, the booming, inarticulate speech
which was the language of his tribe; and
it may be that he is happy enough in his
artificial life. 1t includes all the neces-
saries and many of the luxuries of civil
ization. He goes to bed at every even
ing, in very comfortable bed, and
sleeps till in the morning." his attend
ant told us, "always lying on his side,
with his hand under his cheek on the
pillow, like a man." and he eats numer-
Gus meals with unfailing appetite.
roast meat and potatoes; and his break
fast, luncheon and supper consist OF milk,
wine and water, bread, rices, eggs, fruit
and vegetables. He is on the best of
terms with his attendant, and it was very
funny to see him lying negligently on
his back in slanting upward position
on the ladder, his eyes turned up to the
ceiling, one hand dangling downward
and the other thrown around the neck of
his friend, as the latter repeated his
brief formula to freshly-arrived batch
of spectators. Mr.. Pongo had quite an
irresistible air of enjoying the proceed
ing; he rolled his tongue about, and
when the sentence, ellis present value
is five thousand pounds !" was spoken he
withdrew his arm, gave the speaker a
friendly cuff, as who should say. "What!
you're at it again, are you? Fetch 'em
with figures, my boy !" and dived rapid
ly over and under the rungs of the lad
der, looking at the audience upside-down
from between his own legs with COM
posed gravity infinitely comical.
He never attempts to stand upright;
he is too heavy, his attendant explained,
and his legs are not yet strong enough
to support his weight. But it is expect
ed that he will grow to height of six
feet, and then stand upright, as the full
grown gorilla has been seen by travellers
to do. At present his mode of progress
sion is like that of tumbler who is
about to be picked up suddenly by
pinch behind from the clown in the ring.
He walks on his feet and his hands-the
latter turned in, fst-shape, and looking
like small club-feet-and his back slopes
gently down from his broad shoulders to
his thin, misshapen TANKS.
Mr. Pongo is an interesting, if not
precisely fascinating animal, and the
strongest proof of his quaint suggestion
of kinship with his visitor is that one is
never free from queer sense of bad
manners in asking questions about him
before his grave, black face; and one
leaves him with wish that he might
have something to do, or at least some
thing to read.

Awful Carnage I'm Iowa.

Seven Massachusetts sewing machine
agents and fourteen book agents invaded
this county one day last week.
The Governor was Immediately urged
to send troops, but he said that he had
no military at his command, but he
wonld send down a couple of lightning
rod men and a chrome man, who would
talk the invaders to death.
Then Burlington just got up and went
over the river and hid in the woods un-
til the sounds of carnage died away.
And, as the pale moon rose up slowly
and calmly, she looked down and saw
the cold corpses of seven sewing-mach,iin,e
agents and two lghtning-rod men, while
the only living creature that roamed the
awful field was deaf chrome man, IN
the wild, fierce, delirium of the lock-
jaw. Eye. f.

Lawlessness i'm Pennsylvania.

There is every reason to believe the
worst features of Communism will soon
crop out. The agricultural districts are
beginning to feel the effects of the law
less demands; bands of so-called COM
mittees are scattered through the coun-
try, and, wherever their requests fol
provisions are denied, force is nsed.
Barns, orchards, stock yards and cellars
are Unfortunately plundered; valuable
COWS are killed and their hides left where
they were slaughtered; itinerant ped
dlers are plundered of their packs; pota.
to-fields are invaded and their produce
carried off. Gov. Hartranft has deter
mined to place regiment of three
months men in the disturbed districts
to cooperate with the regulars. =

The Wheat PrOsnect.

Duncan Stewart writes to the Detroit
Tribune advising the farmers of the
Northwest not to slaughter their wheat.
He surveys the situation Mt length, Civ
ing the following figures, England will
want 1O1, 100000 bushels, France a.
100000, Holland, Belgium aud Switzer-
land 100000 900 wheat this crop year.
How is this to be supplied?
The Danubian provinces, which have
hitherto supplied Western Europe
largely, will not have a bushel to spare,
and perhaps not for many years to come.
Southern Russia has good crop, but it
is doubtful if cars can be spared from
war needs to transport the grain to Bal
tic ports. Algiers used to ship wheat
and corn largely to France, but is buy
er this year. In India the drought is
likely to ruin the crop, and the old wheat
is exhausted. Australia will send but
little; England only received from that
source during the seven months ending
July i enough to feed the United King
dom for twenty hours. Denmark is also
a buyer this year, and Egypt will send
but smBll quantity to Europe. Ger
many may furnish 8,000,0 900 bushels.
Chill may furnish 8,OO0,O0O. British
India very little for the next twelve
months. British North America 4, OOO,-
600. All other countries 5000, 900.
Russia, if cars can be got, 10000, 900.
Ii the war was stopped tomorrow, the
entire supplies would not make the de.
ficiencies good. Where the final short
age aOiU come from no man can tell
One thing is sure and certain, every
bushel of wheat, corn, oats, rye and bar
ley the United States can spare will bt
taken at good paying prices.

tered the room by the door furthest
from the bed. He found the serpent
near the center of the room, coiled up
ready for his antagonist. AS soon as
Mr.. Tompkins got in reach of the snake,
the reptile made a fierce dart for him,
leaping his full length. Twice he thus
sprung for Mr.. Tompkins before he was
slain. The snake measured two inches
