A CASE OF EXCISION OF PART OF THE JUGULAR 
VEIN. 
By Mr. H. W. Sparrow, Malton, Yorkshire. 
Nov. 4th, 1828. — Mr. Henderson's attention was requested 
by Mr. Goldney, then residing near Chertsey, to a bay horse, 
with inflammation of the jugular vein on the near-side. Upon 
examination, ulceration was found to have taken place. The 
usual remedies were had recourse to without success ; and on 
Dec. 6th Mr. H. determined on excision of the part. 
A ligature was passed round the jugular at its bifurcation; 
also, below the seat of disease. Mr. H. then carefully dissected 
out the diseased parts. The animal's head was ordered to be tied 
up, and fomentations applied : the place was afterwards treated 
as a common wound. The horse ultimately did well, and returned 
to his work. 
HAEMORRHAGE FROM THE NOSE. 
By the same. 
January 2d, 1830. — A servant to one of the Masters of Eton 
College called upon Mr. Henderson stating that a pony was 
bleeding from the nose. We accordingly went to see our patient, 
and found him in a very precarious state. The blood was flow- 
ing profusely from one nostril — the extremities cold — the pulse 
at the jaw hardly perceptible. Tow was passed up the nostril, and 
cold affusion applied to the head. Physic was given, but without 
effect : the pony was dead by the morning. We never could ascer- 
tain the cause of this — whether it was spontaneous or the effect 
of accident ; and I much regret that no post-mortem examination 
was permitted to be made. 
ENTERITIS IN A MARE. 
By the same. 
On Sunday, 3 p.m., June 1830, our attention was requested 
to a bay saddle-mare, the property of the Earl of Jersey. 1 be- 
lieve it had been ridden some distance. When we saw our pa-
