From a mechanic, of this city, set. fifty-one, who had severe urinary symptoms, and had had them, more or less, as long as he could remember. In 1858 a large calculus was removed. Oct. 25th, 1859, another stone was felt by Dr. B., and on the 25th of Feb. the operation was per- formed. The calculus broke, and the specimen here shown formed the nucleus ; about a teaspoonful of fragments be- ing also scooped out. The patient finally did well. (Hos- pital, 87, 6.) 1860. Dr. H. J. Bigelow.
