A Remarkable Operation. A Surgeon Extracts the Skeleton of a Child from a Young Man Eighteen Tears Old. [From the Grenada (Miss.,) .Sentinel.] Dr. \V. E. Rogers, who, ns a sur-; goon, stands at the head of the pro fession in the South, performed an operation in Memphis last week thnt lias developed uuo of the most re markable results known in the medi cal fraternity. lie was called in, at a house on De Soto street, to extract a stone from the bladder of n young man 18 years old, named Jeptha Walker. The doctor having success fully taken out the stone, which is about the size of a guinea-egg com posed of carbonate of lime, left the patient in good spirit, doing well. Some days '\t%r the nurse while dressing the wound of the young man saw something protecting from it, which she gave to Dr. lingers on his next visit. On examination this proved to be the bone of an infant. Since then the physician has extracted several hones among them are a part of both bones of the thigh, one of the leg, of each arm, and one hip bone, and last Tuesday another was taken] out belonging to another part of the j body. The nurse stated that she had j ext;acted many more bones, but not knowing their value, she threw them away. The patient is doing very well, and is expected to be soon re stored to good health. This is the first case of the kind, we believe, that has occurred in this part of the couu-j try. Rut medical works recountj where reveral such phenomenon have ! taken place; and the same authorities! explain upon a very plausible theory ! how things can happen. Some iu2y ! incredulous doctors whose vocation j should have been that of third-class scullions, have doubted the word of Dr. Rogers in this matter. Rut the j doctor has shown us the bones and ] the stone, and told that his operation j was atteuded with tho above results, j As far as Dr. Rogers’ character is con corned, suffice it to say that ho is well ] known throughout tho Southern] States as a surgeon whose ability is 1 unsurpassed by any ouo in this part of the country, and is regarded as a gentleman who would, under no con sideration, degrade his profession by imposture. Stakch Granules in Human Blood. —We learn that an important discov ery has been, lately made by the head of the microscopic bureau of the Uni ted States Agricultural Department at Washington, Mr. Thomas Taylor. Ry a thorough series of experiments with the microscope, he has been able to de tect animal starch in considerable quantities in tliehumau blood. Every drop of blood which he has tested ex hibits, when treated with iodine and sulphuric acid, more or less granules of bine-colored starch (glycogen), and he thinks its presence in the blood must have an intimate relation to fer mentation of the blood in malarious districts, since starch is convertible into grape sugar, which is a fermenta- j blc body. Medical authorities have never been able to account for the di- ' rect cause of fermentation of the I blood. The action of quinine in chills and fever and other malarious diseases can now bo explained, as quinine has long been known as an anti-feriucnt. Among medical and scientiiic men in Washington this announcement has caused quite a furore, and a great number have called on Mr. Taylor, and he has demonstrated the fact to their satisfaction by taking blood from ] thoir several persons.and showing j them, under hia powerful instruments, j the starch granules. She Paddled Her Own Boat.—The train was approaching Atlanta, anil the obliging conductor went up to tlie homely old lady who was evident ly traveling alone, and said : “Madam, have you a conpanion?” “Oh, yes, sir; Martha Ann made me fetch along her little black ridikule that she called akumpanyun !” “>',! >! I mean an o. cor* 1” “A what, sir ?” and she 100 ed at him hard enough to break her spec tacles. “A fellow-traveler with you ?” ex plained the conductor desperately. !Sho rose. Her uplifted hand look ed deadly iu its black mitten garni ture. “You good-for-nothing scamp no, sir! The idee of me, a lone woman, with uo natural protector but a sheep skitt kivered New Testament, having a feller . traveliu’ with me 1 Your mother ought to weep over your im perdonce, young man, and I’ll have ' ye to know that I kin gii along in 1 this world about as well as any sixty- 1 yoai old w idow that you over struck agin !” Ry this time the conductor was out on the platform wiping the perspira j lion from bis face, and swearing that. | the old lady might “go it alone” to! her heart’s content.

The rooster on top of the liberty pole says lie’ll be scorched if ho stands this heat any longer.

A man advertises himself as “Knock er up, and window tickler, from three to seven.” Ho wakes heavy sleepers who wish to get up early.

A famous auctioneer, after exhaust ing the language of praise in extoll- | ing a gentleman's park which had to I j fall under his hammer, said he was bound, as an honest man, not to con ceal the drawbacks to the property, which were the litter made by the rose leaves, and the perpetual din kept up by tho nightingales. A Milwaukee belle, attending a i theatre in this city recently, com : plained in one of the scenes that the j light was too dim to show the acting properly. “Won’t you try the glass?” I asked her escort,, handing lnr his I lorgnette. Hastily covering the sus picious looking object with her liand kerchief, she placed it to her lips, took a long pull, and then handed it, ] back in great disgust, saying : “Why ! there ain't a drop in it.” A case of mistaken identity took ' place as the cars left the Newark de ; pot. A pretty girl, with her haud j kerchief up to her eyes, had seen her ! lover seat himself in tho last, seat of a ear, but while she was bathed in tears she did not see that the train had backed, and a different car stood in front of her ; but presently she look ed up and said, “good-bye darling,” to an astonished and bashful young man sitting there.

Walker’s California Vin egar Bitters nro a purely Vegetables preparation, made ehiellj' from tho na tive herbs found on tho lower ranges of tho Sierra Nevada mountains of Califor nia, tho medicinal properties of which are extracted therefrom without tho uso of Alcohol. Tho question is almost daily asked, “What is tho cause of tho unparalleled success of Vinegar Rit ters?” Our answer is, that they removo the cause of disease, and the patient re covers his health. They are tlic groat blood purifier and a life-giving principle, a perfect Renovator and Invigorator of tho system. Never before in tho history of the world fins a medicine been compounded possessing tho remarkable qualities of Vinegar Bitters in healing tho sick of every diseaso man is heir to. They are n gontlo Purgativo as well as a Tonic, relieving Congestion or Inflammation of the Liver and Visceral Organs iu Bilious Diseases Tlic properties of Dr... Walker’s Vinegar Bitters are Aperient, Diaphoretic, Carminative, Nutritions, Laxative, Diuretic, Sedative, Counter-Irritant Sudorific, Altera tive. and Anti-Bilious. Grateful Thousands proclaim Vin egar Bitters the most wonderful In vigorant that ever sustained th sinking system. No Person ean take these Bitters according to directions, and remain long unwell, provided their hones are not de stroyed by mineral poison or other means, and vital organs wasted beyond repair. Bilious. Remittent and Inter mittent Fevers, which arc so preva lent in the valleys of our great rivers throughout the Unite,d States, especially those of tho Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri, Illinois, Tennessee, Cumberland, Arkan sas, Red, Colorado, Brazos, Rio Grande, Pearl, Alabama, Mobile, Savannah, Ro anoke, James, and many others, with their vast tributaries, throughout our entire country during the Summer and Autumn, and remarkably so during sea sons of unusual beat and dryness, are •nvariably accompanied by extensive de rangements of the stomach and liver, and other abdominal viscera. In their treatment, a purgative, exerting a pow erful influence upon these various or gans, is essentially necessary. There is no cathartic for the pirpose equal to Dit. J. Walker’s Vinegar Bitters, as they will speedily removo the dark colored viscid in. at ter with which tho bowels are loaded, at the same time stimulating the secretions of tho liver, and generally restoring tho healthy functions of the digestive organs. Fortify the body against disease by purifying all its fluids with Vinegar Bitters. No epidemic can take hold of a system thus fore-armed. Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Head ache, Pain in the Shoulders, Coughs, Tightness of tho Chest, Dizziness, Sonr Eructations of the Stomach, Bad Taste in tlie Mouth, Bilious Attacks, Palpita tation of tho Heart, Inflammation of tho Lungs, Pain in tho region of tho Kid neys, and a hundred other painful symp toms, are tho offsprings of Dyspepsia. Ono bottle will prove a hotter guarantee of its merits than a lengthy advertise ment. Scrofula, or King’s Evil, White Swclliugs. Ulcers, Erysipelas, Swelled Neck, Goitre, Scrofulous Inflammations, Indolent Inflammations, Mercurial Affections, Old Sores, Eruptions of tho Skin, Sore Eyes, etc. In these, ns in all oilier constitutional Dis eases, Walker’s Vixkoaii Bitters liavo shown their great curative powers iu tho most obstiuuto and intractable eases. For Inflammatory and Chronic Rheumatism,, Gout, Bilious, Remit tent and Intermittent Fcvors, Diseases of tlic Blood, Liver, Kidneys and Bladder, these Bitters have no equal. Such Diseases are.caused by Vitiated Blood. Mechanical Diseases.—Persons en gaged in Paints and Minerals, such ns Plumbers, Type-setters, Gold-boaters, and Miners, as they advance in life, aro subject to paralysis of tho Bowels. To guard against this, take a dose of Walker’s Vin egar Bitters occasionally. For Skin Diseases, Eruptions, Tot tor, Salt-Rheum, Blotches, Spots, Pimples, Pustules, Boils, Carbuncles, King-worms, Scalil-head, Sore Eyes, Erysipelas, Itch, Scurfs, Discolorations of tho Skin, Humors and Diseases of tho Skin of whatever name or nature, are literally dug up and carried out of the system iu a short time b)* the uso of those Bitters. Din, Tape, and oilier Worms, lurking in tho system of so many thousands, are cllectually destroyed and removed. No system of medicine, no vermifuges, no au thelmiiiitics will free the system from worms like these Bitters. For Female Complaints, in young or old, married or single, at the dawn of wo manhood, or tho turn of life, these Tonic Bitters display so decided an influence tliet, improvement is soon perceptible. CleSMse the Vitiated Blood when over you find its impurities bursting through the skin in Pimples, Eruptions, or Sores; cleanse it when you find it obstructed and sluggish in the veins; cleanse it when it is foul; your feelings will tell you when. Keep the blood pure, and tho health of the system will follow. it. it. McDonald & co.. Druggists mid Gen. Agts., Sun Francisco, California, ami cor. of Washington and Charlton Sts.. N. Y.
