A NEW VOIIK OPIXtOX.
New Toiik March 20. Tlio following
appeared In the Jfoffcvil ilccrml: "During

Grant has shown no mnl.cd tendency to-
wanl piogreslve ulceration. At the n-o nt

nation nt the General's thio.it with a view
tn discovering tlio cxix-illeney of a radical
surgical operation for the removal of the
growth. Such a measure wouldlnvolven di-
vision of the lower Jaw In the median Hue
tlio extirpation of tho entire tongue and the
greater put of the soft palalo tnzttticr
with the removal of the ulcerated and Infil-
trated fauces and the Indurated glandular

and probable Involvement of tho tissm-i ol
thu adjoining large arteries and veins la

the best Interests of the dlstliigulslied jtt-
Kent tlie surgeons did not feel inclined to

that tho limits of the diseaso could be

such a strong clement in the dccl.-Ion that
for the presuit at least no kind of oj.era-

on tho sldo of the tongue has not progressed
far cnougli to produce the usual lutulerabli
