A sKIlFul SURGICAL OPERATIONS.

The American Ambassador Mt Vienna

Government an interesting account of
remarkable surgical operation lately
performed by Professor Billroth, Of
Vienna, which, wonderful TO tell, con.
sisted in the removal Of portion
Of the human stomach, involving
nearly onC.third cl the organ--and,
strange to say, the patient recovered

kind ever performed, The disease for
which this operation was performed
was cancer OF the stomach, attended with
the following symptoms The appetite

faint sensation; but, on the contrary, it
appears TO aggravate the feeling. The

hands and feet become cold and sticky

Demag0guery.
From the Louisiana Press.

1t is amusing to hear newspaper
talk of placing itself on the side of
the people in any matter of public
or political interest. Such boast
always smacks of demagoguery. A
man that always drifts with public
opinion and never expresses himself
on any question until he cages that
sentiment is out OF place as a jour
nalist. He is like the politician who
seeks to ride into office by advocating
anything that would further that end,
and whose ideas may be changed at
moments warning. The sober
second thougli, of the masses, after
question has been fully presented,
is gen"ra'iy correct bnt popular

absolutely against the best interests
of the people, and then it is that
man shows his wisdom and his cour-
age, as well, by breasting the popular
tide and advocating that which he
sees TO be right This sort Of man
eau be trusted. When we hear q
man constantly harping on the fact
that he is on the side of the people
without any reference as to whether
bis ideas are right or wrong, we al
ways suspect that he is seeking to

Hog Cholera Cure.

Hog cholera is prevailing to an
alarming extent in the vicinity of
Chetopa, Kansas, and the Statesman
of that place publishes the following
recipe as a cure for the disease:
"This remedy was discovered by
Mr.. Bachelor, of Cloud county. He
claims that he has cured seven out
of nine cases by its use. He de-
scribes the disease as o fever, &C.
companied by coughing, generally
the hog being costive and no ap,
petite. His remedy is oil of tar
two-third. of a teaspoonfull to a large
hog twice a day, with two drops o.
carbelic tacid; and if costive ont
heaping tablespoonful of sulphur
once a day in feed. If they do MOI
eat, put it all in water. Keep then
in dry place. Give them a gooe
smoking once day, and sprinkle air
Stacked lime in their beds. MI
Bachelor says he tried almost ever,
other remedy but without success.

ious comedy, with an occasional
touch of nature and pathetic love

with tremendous manifestations of
approval. The leading role, Daddy
Nolan, is portrayed by Mr.. Sam E.

and, with the assistance of pleasing
company, an audience is regaled with
a constant round of amusement. A

Beautiful water, clear and bright,
We pledge one cup to thee,
In thine own limpid beverage,
That is flowing pure and free,
For man and beast it is flowing on,
Refreshing the sense and the sight;
For who does not love the musical flow
Of the sparkling water bright
Let all athirst and weary come,
Who day by day we meet,
About our busy marts of trade,
Or on the crowded street.
A health to those whose mind conceived
The idea true and clear,
That water pure blessing brings,
With its ripping song of cheer.
Let US drink health to the busy hands
Who have done the work so well,
That Time win chronicle for US
Results none can foretell.
And when again the fire fiend comes,
W ltn lidiutS dil liOt duu s5iOW ing.

With jets of water flowing.

We will herald near and far;

Such as greets the ear in war; : + 3
Unlike great Seipio's triumph, proud,
In the olden days of Rome;
But nobler, grander triumph
That blesses hearth and home.

Bright water pure and clear.

A well-to-do farmer, in one Of the

among them was an old darkey about
his own age, whom he had known all
his life In fact, he was one of the
old s'family negroes brought out
from Virginia. Old Sam was q
faithful, docile creature, great ia
vorite with his master. and sort of
privileged character on the planta-
ton. The old fellow was industrious
and exemplary in his behavior all The
year round, except during that peri
cd dating from the time when roast

est appearance Of frost. Sam was
invariably seized at that period with
an invincible desire to "rua away"
1t occurred as regularly as fit of
hay-fever, was as incurable, and like
that unpleasant disorder could only
be treated by a change of air and
locality. Sam, understanding this,
preferred to take his case in his own
hands and administer the treatment
at his own discretion. OF course
the usual punishment inflicted en-
