A sKlLFUL SURGICAL OPERATION.

The American Ambassador at Vienna,
Mr. kasson has lately forwarded 10 his
Government 1u iutcTc ting account Of a
remarkable surgical operation lately
performed bv Professor Billruth, at
Vienna, which, wonderful to tell! con.
sisted In the removal of u portion
of the human stomach, involving
nearly ouc-third at the organ--and,
strange to say, the patient recovered
the ONLY successful operation Of the
kind ever performed The disease for
which this operation was performed
was cancer of the stomach, attended with
The following symptoms The appetite
is quite poor. There is a peculiar hides
cribablc distress in the stomach, n feel.
ing that has been described rs u faint
sal 9oRc' sensation n sticky slime col
lcCts about the teeth, especially in the
morning, accompanied by an unpleasant
taste. Food fails to satisfy this peculiar
faint sensations but, on the contrary, it
appears to aggravate the feeling. The
eyes are sunkcn, tinged with yellow; the
hands and feet become cold and sticky
q cold perspiration. The sufferers feel
tired all the time, and sleep does not
seem 20 give rest. After Il time the pa.
ticnt becomes nervous and irritable,
gloomy. his mind filled with evil fore
bodings. When rising suddenly from
a rccumbcnt position there is dizziness,
whistlng sensation, and he is obliged
to grasp something firm to keep from
falling. The bowels CostiVc, the skin
dry and hot at times; the blood bccom.
ing thick and stagnant and does not
circulate properly. After Il time the
patient splits up food soon after eating,
sometimes in sour and fcrmentcd con
dition, sometimes swedish TO the taste.
Oftcntimcs there is palpitation of the
heart, and the patient fears he may have
heart disease. Towards the last the
patient is unable to retain any food
whatever is the opening in the intes-
tines becomes closed, or nearly so. Al
though this disease is indeed alarming,
sufferers with Tic above named symp-
toms should not feel nervous, for nine
hundred and ninety-ninc eases out of II
thousand have no cancer, but simply
dyspepsia, II disease easily removed If
treated in II proper manner The safest
and best remedy for the disease is
Seigel's Curative Syrup, a vegetable pre-
paration sold by all chemists and medi.
cine vendors throughout the world, and
by the proprietors, \. j. White (Limit.
ed, II, Farringdon.road, London, E. c.
This Syrup strikes at the very founda.
ton of the disease, and drives it, root
and branch, out of the system.

most OF whose members are residents here.
The best carriages yet adopted are the Vaya'

which 10 adopted by Germany and The other
users Of Krnpp's guns. The mechanism OF

twelves" and carronades, while its weight Is
lees than ono.fllth that OF the Krupp and more
than one.half less Than tho hydraulic COM
pressor carriages now In use on our best
armed vessel, the Trenton. The claims to
superiority made for the Powlett carriage
over others are, reduction OF cost, the absence
ofexpoeed or complicated gearing, facilitating

ANOTHER day is passing and leaving the
result in doubt. After nigh t of intense OK
citement both sides learned to feel that they
must be prepared for defeat II ii came-both
sides realized that it might come, Both
parties are still exultant, both make plaus-
iblo statements neither can establish its
claims.
It Is kind fate that allows another day
for yelling before the crushing blow or the
crowning victory comes.
1t Is wholesome season, these hours Of
uncertainty 1t is time when gooi and
true citizens learn to realize that factional
feeling must give place to the popular de-
cision, and that the great verdict at tho
polls must DO loyalty and earnestly con-
frmed and supported.
In this hour of doubt prophesy is worse
than useless, the time for influencing the
result is past. The country awaits the
issue with intense interest, but without
alarm. Republicans and Democrats alike
concede that whatever may be tho decision
"God reigns and the Government at Wash
ipgton still lives"
