different intervals during the whole length of the disease, 
which did not yield to treatment until late in December of 
the same year. The treatment consisted of repeated counter¬ 
irritations over the throat, tracheotomy to relieve the roaring, 
strychnia, iodide of potash, arsenic, with aromatic and anti¬ 
septic fumigations. Electricity was also tried but had to be 
abandoned after a month’s trial. Arsenious acid internally, 
given daily, seemed to give the best results.— Ibid. 
URINARY TUMOR. 
By MM. Hebrant and Gilsoul. 
Among some clinical cases recorded the authors write a 
case of an unusual occurrence. A young cow having had a 
somewhat difficult labor during which the vulva had been 
lacerated in several places, after a certain amount of febrile 
reaction, presented on the inside of the left leg, a little above 
the hock, a round tumor, as large as a man’s head, which was 
first considered as of a septic nature, a sequelas of infectious 
metritis. Being called to see her, the writers found the tumor 
fluctuating, painless, but of doubtful nature. An exploration 
made with a fine trocar gave escape to a clear liquid, trans¬ 
parent, yellow in color, and having a strong marked odor of 
urine. It was urine. 
On the inferior plan of the vulva, a little back and on the 
left side of the urinary meatus, there was an irreglar wound 
through which the finger could be readily introduced, which 
communicated at its bottom with a subcutaneous tract into 
which the urine had run and gathered in the tumor below. 
The tract was cleaned with carbolic water, the edges of the 
wound of the vulva cauterized and closed with a tent of wad¬ 
ding, replaced every time it came out. The recovery took 
place in ten days.
