Dr. Robert "Wood at Lowell, Mass., as
sisted by Drs. Stickney, Very and Thayer,
of Boston, performed a surgical operation
on a colt eight months old that of remov
ing a fifth leg. The extra leg was firmly
.attached to the metacarpal bone of the
natural leg just below the knee, on the in
Mde, and was perfect in structure, having a
perfectly foi-ied metacarpal bone, sessa-
moids, a perlect ietlock joint, long and
short pasterns, coronet, and a good shaped
foot. Also the two sets of tendons, the flex
ors and extensors, suspensory ligament,
blood vessels and nerves, all covered by
.skin and hair, all of which was success
fully removed by the above named gentle
men. The colt is at present doing well,
and with every prospect of the leg re
suming it3 normal size and shape, feuch a
malformation and surgical operation is
without a paralled in this country.
A new invention has just been tried in
Paris which is said to render drowning a
thing of the past. It consists in the em
ployment of a pneumatic India rubber tube
rolled round the body with a sufficient
number of folds to contain the necessary
amount of air. The tube is placed con
cealed in a double envelope, forming a shirt.
It terminates by a mouth-piece, which shuts
by the aid of a simple copper botton. The
operation is simple in the extreme, and the
fcwimmer or immersed person has enough
air for a whole day. When the apparatus
eomes to diminish in volume it is easy to
expand it again by the printiplal tube in
deep water without any effort or difficulty.
The trial was witnessed at the Henry the
Fourth baths, when the inventor, M.
Gosselin, showed its properties. He stood
upright, the hands raised above the head,
when the water did not come above his
fchoulders, he then floated on his back with
arras crossed. The apparatus can be worn
under the clothes like a flannel waistcoat.
It extends from the neck to the knees, fas
tened in front by a row of buttons. It is
composed of a double flannel, in the midst
of which an India rubber tube circulates,
starting from the top of the chest, ascend
ing the left side of the neck, and following
the central line of the back ; it there di
vides in two branches, encirculing the
thighs as far as the knees. From the cen
tral part of the principal tube twelve or
fifteen lesser tubes diverge to make the
round of the body, and meet in front where
the row of buttons is. This improvement
on the life-belt is said to be certain to
supercede all existing appliances in teach
ing swimming or saving lives from ship
wreck, j
