Dr. Valentine Molt, the diitinguiihed e.\ ponent of surgical science, ia entitled tc tbe firm rank amon^ tbe surgeona of tbe world, lays the New York Ledger. In his Jitrd year be placed a ligature round arteries within two incbea of the heart an operation sufficient of iUeif to plact him at tbe summit cf bil profession. In l-in he performed what ia univeraally allowed to be the meat di&kult feat ever altem[ited in lorgtry. A clergyman waa atiiicted wnb an enor moui tumor in tbe Deck, in which were imbedded and twiiud many of the great arteries. In removitg thii tumor it was necessary to tak oat entire one of the collar bones, to lay bare tue membrane in doling the lungn, to diwect around arleriea displaced by tbe tumor and imbedded in it, to apply 40 ligaturci and remove an immense, niaea of diieaaed matter. All tbil wan done without tbe aid cf chloro- form. The patient survived the operation. and aabaeijoently uncharged the datiei of bil profeaiion. i>t. Molt was the uret to operate too- cejifully for immovability of tho lower jaw and tbe firitlo entirely remove the lower jaw. He waa tbe tint to succeed in tewing up a ilit in a large vein, and be did this in aome caaes where a pcrticn cf tha vein bad been ilioed away an operation of incon- ceivable delicacy. Hi once cut away two inobea of tuc deep jugular ven.. .hich wai imbedded in a tumor, and tied both enda of it. In tbe coarie of bis long profeieional life be tied the cototid artery 4>i timeaacd amputated nearly l.COO hiiibi. Sir Aalley Cooper traly remarked : "Dr. Molt h&j performed more ot the great operationi than any man living or that ever did live."
