A SKILEuL SURGICAL OPERATION.

The American Ambassador at Vienna
Mr. kasson, has lately forwarded to his
Government an interesting account of u
remarkable surgical operation lately
performed Ivy Professor Billroth, Of
Vienna, which, wonderful to tell, con
sisted in the removal Of portion
Of the human stomach, involving
nearly one.third Of 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 indies.
cribubc distress in the stomach, a feel.
ing that has been described as a faint
"aU gone" sensation; sticky slime col.
lccts about the teeth, especially i'll the
morning, accompanied by an unpleasant
taste. Food fails to satisfy this peculiar
faint sensation; but, on the contrary, 1t
appears 10 aggravate the feeling. The
eyes are sunkrn, tnged with yellow; the
hands and feet become cold and sticky
n cold perspiration. The sufferers feel
tired ali the time, and sleep does not
seem TO give rest. After time the pa.
ticnt becomes nervous and irritable,
gloomy, his mind filed with evil fore.
bodiugs. When rising suddenly from
rccumbcnl position there is dizziness,
a whistling sensation, and he is obliged
To- grasp something firm 60 keep from
falling. The bowels Costivc, the skin
dry and hot at times; the blood beCom.
ing thick and stagnant, and does not
circulate properly. After time the
patient spits up food soon after eating,
sometimes In Il sour and fcrmcntcd con.
dition, sometimes swedish 10 the taste.
Oftcntimes there is n 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 rs the opening in the mites.
tines becomes closed, or nearly so. Al.
though this disease is indeed alarming,
sufferers with Tie above named symp-
toms should not feel nervous, for nine
hundred and ninety.ninc cases out of Il
thousand have no cancer, but simply
dyspepsia, n disease easily removed if
treated in II proper manner. The safest
and hest remedy for the disease is

puration sold by all chemists and mcdi.
cine vendors throughout the world, and
by the proprietors, \. j. White (Limit-
ed), II, Farring don.road, London, L. c.
This Syrup strikes at the very founda.
ton of the disease, and drives it, root
and branch, out of the system.

THE VANITY OF CONVENTIONS.

This Is the year OF National Conven-
tions. Two have been Mt work this
wcek--the Independent Republican
Convention ut New York, and Prohibit
ton party at Pittsburg. These, with
the usual party nsscmbIages, the Labor
purity and the Greenback convention
have given mass of Presidential tim
Der numerous enough to select from,
bnt there will likely be more before the
season closes. Every little clique wants
the high-sounding title Of national
party, and ambitiously elbows its way
to the foremost rank of politics. VIZ.
mans rights, Native Americanism, Bible
in the Schools and in the National Con-
End imngine they are playing an i'm
porlnnt part in a great political drama.
1t is their privilege, but when the actual
results are counted up they seem insig-
niticant and ridiculous. The very num-
Der of these aspiring organizations de-
feats their objects. They ffset each
other and lead to nothing, except the
temporary glory found in newspaper ink
and eulogy. None can reasonably ex-
pcct to succeedl IN clecting any one d
their own candidates
The Independent party muy accom-
plsh some result. So may the Labol
organization in one on two States; bu
the chances ARE that when the fight j:
| finally over in November it will be fount
that both of the old parties OF the coun
try will be as solid and intact as ever
| They really differ but little on any vita
| principle, but half. way houses bav'
| never been very popular.

THE PROHIBITION PARTY.

A new element is coming into promi-
hence in the politics OF the country that
will be worth considering in several |
States. II styles itself the National
Prohibition Homo Protection party. IT
has called National Convention TO
place in the field candidates for Prcsi-
dent aud Vice President.
II is evident that this party, while
comparatively small in numbers is
lively and aggressive one: and in the
Stnte OF California is likely to hold
balance OF power That may make trouble
for both of the old organizations,
The central figure of this organiza.
ton in California is DR.. r II. Mcdonald
Of San Francisco. lie is man of
wealth, estimated at seven millions, and
his lbernlity and philanthropy have
made him universally respected Presi-
dent of the Pncifc Bank, and largely in
terested in business associations of var
ious descriptions, he is something more
than sentimentnIist and dreamer He
Ia man OF action and energy, and his
devotion to the temperance cause in
past years, and his former candidacy for
the Governorship OF Tint State, have
made him prominent now for tho Presi-
dental nomination.
He cannot expect an election, but ev-
1 identity takes n pride in Leading the
| forces OF his cause, and organizing them
for the victory that may come in the
years hereafter. The literary APP
! planes, newspapers, circulars and
pamphlets so literally distributed OF
late show that the party has healthy
bank account, and that II is being Law
ishly drawn upon.
Gov. st. John OF Kansas appears to be
in the lend for the nomination at the
National Convention, but II DR.. Melon
aid does not receive the honorary prize
1t viii not be for activity on the part of
| his California friends At the last cleo
ton That party polled 300 votes in Cal
ifornis. II is predicted confidently
Ivy Mr.. Mcdonald that this year 1t VIII
poll from $4,000 to 10000. II 1t does
this will seriously affect the calculations
Of the Republican and Democratic po-
liticians in that State. In several West
ern States, as In Kansas, Iowa and
Michigan, the Prohibition party will
strongly organize and make respecta-
bic showing; one that may perplex some
OF the machine methods. II will seem
like throwing away votes, hut when
men ARE thoroughly IN earnest they re-
call the memory Of the old Liberty par
ty and the disaster that killed the Pres
idential ambition OF Henry Clay even in
the house Of his friends. 1t is a plant
that may grow,
