ceptionally fine quality, although it was
entirely in the rough state. 1t was ex-
amined by several gentlemen who were
present, and it was universally conceded
to be remarkable gem. Mr.. Malley
placed its value at $75, and this estimate
was accepted as being none too high.

was found came from one of the local

Saturday morning, at the Massachu-
sets General hospital, little instru-
ment, invented by DR.. Mixter, wonder
full in its simplicity, constructed so as
to separate quite large portions of cpl
dermis from the simultaneous tissue,
was used for the first time.
The patient had been etherized, and had
undergone an operation for the removal
of cancerous growth from the left
breast, and the wound thus made was
quite an extensive one. The instrument
was applied to the anterior portion of
the right thigh, and three strips. about
an inch wide by six inches long, were
taken off and transplanted to the ex-
posed surface of the breast. The opera
ton of removing the skin and trans
planting it to its new quarters did not
occupy more than about six minutes
A very few days will suffice to restore
the denuded surface of the thigh to its
normal condition, leaving few traces Of
the reparative process to which it has
contributed, and, other things being
equal, the surface from which the can
cerous tumor has been excised will heal
over by first intention, thus saving the
patient from prolonged and painful
period of convalescence. OF course, every
precaution is taken, by the use of steril-
izing processes and antiseptic solutions, to
render the operation thoroughly aseptic,
so that the chances of infammatory dis
turbances from bacterial sources are re-
duced to the lowest minimum.

plasters probably does not exceed one.

cunning managers to humbug them
stands poor show of success. In my
experience find that New York is be-
