The American Ambassador at Vienna, Mr | Kfisson, liiiß forwarded to his Government on | interesting account of a rfmnrkublc surgical , operation lately performed by Professor 13il)rofcb, of Vienna, which, wonderful to tell consisted in the removal of a portion of the human stomach, involving nearly one-third of the organ—and strange to say, the patient, recovered —the only successful operation of I the kind ever perforn cd. The disease for j which the operation was performod was | cancer of the stomach, attended wilhthefollowI ing symptoms :—The appetite i« quite poor. I There is a peculior indescribable distress in the stomach, a feeling that has been described ns a faint, " all gone " sensation ; « sticky slime collects about the teeth, especially in the .morning, accompanied by an unpleasant taste. Food fails to satisfy this peculiar faint (sensation; bufc on the contrary, it appears to aggravate tbe feeling. The eyes are sunken, tinged with yellow; the hands and feet become cold and sticky—a cold perspiration. The sufferers feel tired ull the time, and sleep does not seem to give rest. ! After a time tbe patient becomes nervous nnd ! irritable, gloomy, his mind filled with evil 1 foreboding?. When rising suddenly from a recumbent position there is a dizziness, a whistling sensation, and he is obliged to grasp something firm to keep from fulling The bowels costi«e, the skin dry and hot at limeß ; the blood beenming thick and stagnant, and does not circulate properly. After a time tbe patient spits up food soon after eating, some* times in a eour and fermented condition, sometimes sweetish to the tas^e. Oftentimes there is a palpitation of tho heart, and the patient fears be may have heart disease. Towards the last tbe patient is urablo to retain any food whatever, as the opening in tho intestines becomes closed, or rearly so.

Dear Sir,—l write to inform you that I have.derived great benefit from "Seigel's Syrup." For some years I have suffered from liver complaint, with its many and varied cenoomitant evils, so that my life was a per* petual misery. Twelve months ago I waa induced to try SeigelV Syrup, and although rather sceptical, having tried many reputed infallible remedies, I determined to give it at least a fair trial. In two or three days I felt considerably better, ,and now at the. end of twelve months -(having continued taking it) I am glad to say that I am a different being altogether. It is' said of certain pens that they "come as a boon and a blessing to men," and I have no reason to doubt the truthfulness of the statement. I can truly say, how* ever, that Seigel's Syrup has come as a " boon and a blessing" ta> me. I have recommended it to several fellow sufferers from this distressing complaint, and their testimony is quite in accordance with my own. Gratitude for the benefit I have derived from the excellent; preparation prompts me to furnish you with this unsolicited testimonial. I am, dear eir, Yours ever gratefully, (Signed) Carey B. Berry, A. J. White, Esq. Baptist Missionary. Hensingham, Whitehaven, Oct. 16,1882. Mr A. J.
