THE COLUMBIAN AKD DEMOCRAT. BLOOMSBURG, COLUMBIA COUNTY, PA. Wonderful Operation. NfcWFOUNDLANI) l)0o' 11AIII WANS' I'LANTF.t) TO A HITMAN HKAll. A young nml woaltliy Now Yorker, who lias boon ns Imlil as a billiard ball, will soon jo baok Into sooioty with a head of curly hair, whioh was proourcd for him by tranaplantatlon from a dog, writes a New York correspondent to tho Cinuinuall Jinquirer. Ills caso is ono of. tho most remarkable surgical operations over known In this city and perhaps in tho world. Tho young man is tho private patient of tho con sulting surgeon of St. Elizabeth Hos pital. Ho is the son of a well known dry goods merchant, and lives in an elegant mansion on Fifth avenue. Tho man was graduated from Columbia College about two years ago, and was sent to tho University nt Hoidelberg to compicto nis education, it was thcro ho mot with a painful acoidcnt. Ho had taken a special courso in ohom- istry, and spoilt, much of bis time in the laboratory In tho capacity of tcaolr- crs' assistant. Ono cvoninR, whilo alone, ho was ovorcomo by tho vapor of sulphuric acid, and beforo ho could get to tho open air tell unconscious. As no rolled over ills head entered an open fire place, whero there was large log burning, and his hair caught on firo. Ho was found shortly after ward. Ilis head was in a frightful condition. Tho flesh running horn tho forehead to tho shoulders in tuo back of tho neck was roasted. When ho was lifted from tho floor ltortioos of tho scalp fell off, oxpoaing tho bone, Ills faco was not much injured, save for about an inch on the forehead. Ho was taken to his room, and thero be gan tho battlo for his ltfc. It was feared that tho brain had been affected, as ho remained in a comatoso condition Thoro was a watery deposit in tho lungs, but it could not bo determined whether this was duo to tho inhaling of tho vapor of tho acid or tho flames from tho liro. Tho lime symptoms be came worso rapidly, auu all hope was given up of saving his life. Tho best physicians in Germany were called to attend him, and ovorytbinc' was dono that was known in medical science. Nearly all tho tlesh sloughed oil from tho Bkull leaving a patch hero and there, Hko an oaBis in a desert It was a long timo beforo his lungs healed, and much longer beforo thdl horrible would becomo well enough to removo tho skull cap bandago whioh ho woro. When ho recovered Ms strength and came home, the terribjo disfigurement of tho cicatrical tissuo in tho scalp was hidden under a wig, Tho wig would havo beqn all right but lor the lact,that it Bet up an annoying irritation. Wigs of ovory sort were tried to overcome the difficulty, but when tho irritation developed into distressing inllamation from whioh discharging ulcer was formed, tho wigs had to bo abandoned. AYiion tho hospital surgeon s attention was called to the caso thcro was an ulcerat ed surface about as largo as a silver dollar in tho top of tho back head. Ho suggested the performance of a plastic operation, or tho transplantation ot skin. Tho patient expressed his will ingness to undergo anything, however, p.uuiui or inuuiivumuub, aim ue was 111 a lair physical condition, work was be gun at onoo. This was several months ago. As a preliminary test, a small section of skin and flesh was cut from tho patient's breast and placed in tho conter of the ulceration in tho scalp, which had been previously scraped un til it bled prottisdy. The skin took root in an astonishing short time much to tho gratification of tho patient and phyeiciaus, and from tho outer border of tho transplanted skin little shoots of healthy tissue protruded into tho acigh- bonng llesh and grew rapidly. This was continued until the entire ulcerated surfaco had healed and pre sented a healthy appearance. In tho now flesh which had beon, thus formed thero was an activo growilvof capillary substance, showing thal,tho hair cells had not been destroyod. This led tho doctor to suggest, a novol experiment, which, if. successful, would not only cover the head ofvtlio patient with flesh but also with a . boautiful growth of curly hair. It was nothing loss than to try and transplanftho skin of a dog to tho patient's hoad. It took some timo for the pationt to overcome tho natural aversion to such an operation out nnauy no gave nis consent, espco lauy as his wealth and social position could not omperwato, for tho horrrblo deformity in his head. A large Newfoundland" dog, was pro cured with a fino coat of liait and the patient was put under tho influence of other in his own room. Tho doctop had several assistants, one, of whom scraped a portion of thaflesh frpra. -tho top of tho patient's head. While trds was being dono tho dog waianajtbetiz oil. Tho hair on ono of its Ihighs was cut closo aud an incision was made several inches long. A parallel incis ion was mado near tho first one, and at tho lower end theso incisions were joined by a third ono. The flesh and skin were then dissected up for soveial , , .1 t i,1 iucucs, leaving too large mp united to tne nog at tuo upper end. Tho dog had bocn placed in an ad justable frame work on wheels, and he was rolled to tho patient's sido and raised oven with tho head. Whilo tho blood was pouring from the dog's flesh it was placed upon tho patient's head and pressed firmly into position oiripes ot aiinesiYO Master wero run in various directions over tho dog's and tho patient's head, and after tho entire wound had been dusted with chloro form, bandages were applied. The dogs legs and body had been previous. )y strapped so that nothing could bo moved but tho head, and this was .per mittco to bo moved only sidoways, 1 he patients hoad was also held by supports in such a position as to take tho strain Irom tho neck aud restrict all motion. 1 ho operation took about an hour and a h ilf, and when tho patient be camo conscious fortunately there was iio voimiing irom too ctiier. mo re lauvo positions oi uog and man wore maintained for a week. The dog was led reguiany, but did not seem to en joy his food. The patient's condition was splendid, and when the flap was severod Irom the dog it was found to bo firmly united to tho head. As the lioaling went on soino of tho hair dron, ped out, but enough was left to niako a nico fringe on tho forohead. Tho experiment was remarkably successful, and as soon as tho llesh was hoaled it was tried again with good result. The work was kept up until thero had been thirteen distinct operations. All wero successful savo two, aud in theso the dog's flesh sloughed off. It took two dogs to furnish tho IIpsIi, tho first one having died from the seventh operation from "blood poisoning, Tho seoond dig is alive, and goes around with a laid spot at his thigh.

In fact it tastes, when it has been a few days fermented, like a mixture of but termilk and sour cider. But many strangers becomo very fond of it. The older it grows the moro intoxicating it is. As the reader knows, probably, it is drawn from the maguey plant, called by us tho "century," which grows ou theso elevations to a great siee, and is tho cleanest-limbed and most vigorous and wholesomo-looking product of tho region. When it matuies it shoots up a' stout spiko ten or twenty feet high from tho center, bearing brilliant orange flowers. When tho plant is readyto tap tho center stalk is cut out, andHhe sap collects in the cup thus formed. It is dipped out or sucked outjby a tube, and when first drawn is mild, cool, and refreshing.

Tho highest bluff, a great rocky promontory that hangs over a deep and narrow stroam, looms up far above tho boatman, boyond tho roach ol tho long est jiolc, as ho glides through its shadow. This rocky bank rises to a perpendicu lar height of about thirty feet, nnd is known as Morgan's bluff. In 1830 Qoneial Henry Morgan, our fellow-townsman, then the village schoolmaster of classic Palmyra, was discussing tho death of Sam Patch, occasioned by his last fearful leap. Tho young podagoguo continued, in the faco of all opposition, that tho leap attempted was of caso and safe accom plishment by ono of cool head and ex periencc. Ho stated that he, himself, had loaped over fifty feet into tho riv ers of his Northorn homo. Tho crowd was incredulous, and tho pluck and de termination of young Morgan was thoroughly aroincd by thoir jests at his expense, and ho showed his spirit by proposing to lump into tho luncha fooneo from tho highest point that could bo lound on its steep banks. Tho party selected tho point at which tho test leap was to bo made. Tho ap pointed day arriving, quito a crowd collected to witness the feat. At the creek men would look down from tho dizzy height to tho seething waters be low, and many joined in tho attempt to dissuado tho "foolhardy toachcr from tho rash attempt, but to no pur pose ; his determination was as fixed as the rocky bed of tho stream. Tho lean was made, both feet foremost, with porfect safety and npparent pleasure. Evor afterwards tho bluff has been called Morgan's bluff, and many times afterward tho young schoolmaster, in the spring season, after the duties of the school-room had been diechargod for tho afternoon, would repair to tho bluff aud indulge tho pleasure of a bath in tho cool, clear wator ot tho picturesquo Kinchafoonoo.

Carlisle School Star. The Sea Salt Graze. Tho majority of our readers will re member tho blue-glass crazo which raged so furiously in 1871-2. The manufactories of bluo glass reaped an enormous harvest, and peoplo who nover allowed the sun to shino upon them beforo permitted its beams to roach them through bluo glass hnng in convenient southern windows. Thcro are some indications that another crazo is coming to tako the placo of bluo glass and tho moro recent furor for hot water. Tho latest is tho consumption of sea salt or rock salt from Turk's Island as a euro for nearly all tho ills of tho body. Tho crazo has readied Utioa and is traveling this way. So far, tho sea salt eaten in season and out of season has been found to cure consumption, dyspepsia and kidney difficulty, huadaclio and general good-for-nothingness. Jtochesler Demo crat.

Not long ago, in tho same place, Cap tain Abnoy, in a lecturo on "Sunlight Colors," rejected this experiment, adopting Professor Langloy's figures with mathematical accuracy, but dis pensing with the paper disks, which this lecturer held vititated tho result and he showed that tho color of tho sun was not bluo, but very noarly that of tho white light to be seen at high olovatiou in a clear, dust-freo atmos phero.
