May.?I removed the stone by the left lateral perineal The stone was circular, 2 inches in diameter, with flattened opposite surfaces. It weighed 2| oz. and was oxalate of lime in composition.

In the subsequent healing of the wound no untoward symptom occurred. A pint of cold water, with 20 drops of carbolic acid, was daily thrown into the bladder, by the tube of the stomach pump, through the wound for 4 days successively, and the external wound was dressed with carbolic oil.
