We have the utmost satisfaction in announcing to the numerous
friends of his Royal Highness the Duke of SUSSEX, that the operation of removing the cataract, which had for so long a period obstructed his Royal Highness's vision, was performed yesterday morning, between twelve and one o'clock, by Mr. ALEXANDER, with every prospect of complete success. It occupied front ten to fifteen minutes ; and the skill and dexterity of Mr. Alexander could only be equalled by the patience and fortitude of his Royal Highness. We understand that the Duke was yesterday evening as well us could be expected.—Morn- ing Chronicle.
