Three photographs of the oriOinal were takenâ€"one throu h a liquid orange screen. third througha iquid green screen. and another through a liquid violet screen. For the image obtained through the first screen a red color bath was employed; for that produced through the second screen a blue bath. and for that effected through the third screen a yellow bath.

In Cornwall. where it has been used. sheep have not suffered from the fluke and other diseases as they have done elsewhere. The best crop of potatoes is grown in sand soils. For wheat land sea- sand is a very valuable manure, the grain ripening twelve days earlier than with any other manure. Many other crops have also been benefited by its appli- cation. There is no ivory waste. Even the pow der is sold for making ielly. It' 18 said that one leading cutlery firm in Sheflield made a calculation that to supply themselves with the ivory needed for their business they needed 1 280 elephants every year, and that even with this number, the tusks were each estimated to weigh 282 pounds.

The funerslof the lets Earl of Airlie, who died out west a. few weeks ego, took place at Cortschy Castle on Friday, November 4th. when a vest concourse attended to do honor to his memory. He was not buried in the fsmily vault in the parish church. where his seven predecessors in the title rest. but in a. new burial ground close to the bank of the Eek. Lsdy Alrlie followed the coffin. leaning on the arm of her eldest son. Lord Airlie having been chief of the clan Ogilvie, the procession was headed by the pipers. who lsyed the “Portuguese Hymn " and "T 9 Land 0’ the Lesl." while before it started the pipers of Lord Bresdslbsne and other men leyed in front of the castle. The pibroc s were "Lochsber No More " end " Glengerry’s Lament." few days before his death. and was taken I“ immediately upon his arrival. During the past few days anumber of employees of the canal company have been brought to the foreign hospital, sufieriug from fever. At Gatan station there is an average of two deaths daily, caused by exposureto sun and rain, which the-laborers undergo. There are at least 300 men employed at that point. buildingghouses and makinga road to Colon. These men have no accom- modation or protection from rain, and are compelled to sleep in the open air and under cars. on moist or damp ground, which starts the fever and terminates fatally in a few days. A despatoh from Panama says Monsieur Goslon Blanchet, Chief of the canal ser- vice, died in this city, three days ago, of yellow fever. His duties required his frequent :resence along the line of the eaual. an he returned from atrip only a When Professor Wood put plants such as are found upon a healthy tongue in steril- ized matter they refused to grow. 0n the contrary, plants from the throat or blood of a person affected with diphtheria multi. plied rapidly. The practical result of the investigation pointed out was the possibility that diphtheria, if existing theories hold good, may be prevented by artificial vaccination. In the case of splenic fever caught from animals, which has proved to originate in a somewhat similar plant. Pasteur has found that the plant. when exposed a snfiieient time to the air, by the action of oxygen loses its poisonous charac- ter, and when then introduced into the system makes the animal sick, but is no longer fatal. The deduction is that this diphtheria plant, scientifically known as “ micrococi," may in time be cultivated, so that when innoculated with it the system will be no longer subject to the disease in its fatal form. Concluding the lecture. Prof. Wood was applauded when he said that these discoveries could never have been made but for the aid of viviseotion, against which there is a foolish prejudice in the minds of many. Dreadllll Mortality Among the Workman. Professor Wood's investigations show that the false membrane, supposed to invariably indicate the presence of diph- theria. may be caused by ammonia. Spanish fly or any other ' irritating influence in the throat, so that its presence is not infallible as indicating the existence of adisease. But in any case the false membrane is built up by this parasitical plant. which grows and multiplies upon its inflamed surroundings. whatever may be the cause. It is when the plants grow strong enough to extent to the blood. either poisoning themselves or carrying .the poison with them. that diphtheria sets in. The little plant is exactly the same as found upon a coated tongue. Dr Formand visited an infected town on Lake Michigan. where one-third of all the children in a marshy district died of the epidemic, and brought back with him speci- mens of the diphtheria virus, several of the false membranes which invariably formed in the throats of the afllioted persons, and portions of the Viscera. In all blood, said the Professor, there are two kinds of cor- puscles, the red or color givnng and the white. By careful study and experiments, both in human beings and the lower ani- mals. it was found that this infinitisimal plant fastens upon the white corpuscles and multiplies its cells, altering their char- acter until, with the interior destroyed. they burst and the plants set loose in an irregular mass separate and go of? indi- vidually to continue the destructive work on other corpuscles. Thus increased, they poison the blood, choke the vessels and are lound in myriad numbers in the spleen and bone marrow, where the blood is manufac- tured. Some light was thrown on the origin of diphtheria in a lecture before the Academy of Natural Sciences, Philadelphia. the other night. by Professor Horatio C. Wood, who gave the result of his researches in connec. tion with Dr. Henry F. Formed, involving the important discovery that this fatal and insidious disease is propagated by a microscopic plant, or fungi, exnsting in all human beings, especially in the mouth and threat, but lacking the power of reproduc- tion until given increased vitality by those disordered conditions of the mucous mem- brane which attend sore throat when caused by cold. The investigations were made at the instance of the National Board of Health. and extended. not only to the phenomena attending the ordinary endemic diphtheria existing in Philadelphia, but to the more violent form occurring from time to time in different places. A correspondent writing trorn Adams, Jefferson county, New York. says: Diph- theria is raging in this village and causes a panic here.

Call the next case ” Sent to the Beformaloryâ€"An Unlucky Blrllulay. A Kingston telegram reports that John Holgate, an English lad, was charged at the Police Court with having stolen from Henry. Brown a pair of and buttons. two chest keys and a small tin bank containing about 82. He acknowledged taking the money, but the other articles he said he found. He arrived from England about a fortnight before last Christmas, and for seven months worked for a wholesale grocer of Toronto. His people were in England. He stole the money on the 19th inet., the anniversary of his 16th birthday. He was sent to the Reformatory at Pene- tanguishene for two years. The sentence is considered too severe. The little fellow is deformed. He says he first came from England to search for his father, who started for Canada ahead of him. His mother died when he was young. and he was turned over to the tender mercies of an aunt. who to get rid of him sent him to this country. Before taking his departure from the police station he wrote a letter of much tenderness to a lady in this city who had befriended him. " on " to him ; seven boys deliberately set firetothe school rather then stand any longer the cruel treatment to which they were subjected. The food also was in- famous; beetles, crickets and dirt were frequently found in the soup. One boy was set to make sacks. He fell ill, yet the task was continued and he died. But the poor little fellow was flogged for idleness the day before he expired “ She worked in vain for many months. Her charges against the management of the school were treated as ' exaggerations.’ Were there not managers? Was it not known that boys in such schools were more than usually insubordinate and troublesome 7 Was not Mr. Scrutton. a ‘ respected ’ member of the Board, officially ‘ responsible ’? How could any one believe that anything was wrong when the accuser was a lady, who was ° actuated, no doubt, by the best motives,‘ but whose charges positively implied neglect of duty on the part of ' one of our colleagues?’ It was too ridiculous to believe that Mrs. Burr, who had nothing oflioially to do with the school, should be right and that Mr. Scruttcn, the manager appointed by the Board. should be guilty of dereliction of duty. Besides had not Gov- ernment inspectors visited the school, and how could they fail to find out faults! Nevertheless Mrs. Burr persevered; she would not be beaten even by these formid~ able platitudes of masculine oflicialism. She appealed again and again to the Board, but they refused to institute an inquiry and put her aside as an intermeddling person who disturbed the proceedings of the august body by talking about ugly subjects. She then addressed herself tothe Home Office, and the Secretary of State found out what his own inspectors had not dis- covered, that the courageous and loyal lady-«loyal to the noblest instinct of womanhood, the love and care of children â€"was right, and_that certain of the oflicials had been guilty either of cruelty or con- nivance, while the Board itself had, it was clear, grossly neglected its duties. Still the London School Board was not convinced. Mr. Scrutton demanded inquiry and evidence; he would meet his accuser. Mrs. Surr, face ‘0 face. He did so with every advantage, as a com- mittee cf the Boardâ€"the very body that had screened and defended him all alongâ€"conducted the inquiry. The statements adduced abundantly justified all the accusations. If a master could not find out which boy had disturbed him by talking, the whole school was put on bread and water for a day. The same punish- ment was given if a window were cracked. Because a bottle was broken all the boys had to go without dinner and to stand for hours in the open air on a winter day. The children were so {amished that many of them stole the food given to the dog. The boys also frequently took bread from the pantry, driven to theft by systematic starv- ation. Pinafores instead of shirts and shirts without sleeves were constantly worn. The lads used sometimesto wear their socks for six weeks without a change. At one time twenty of them were in bed with bad feet, produced by cold and by standing in the wet yards without shoes or stockings. For this reason one boy was confined tobed for twelve weeks. A lad named Rust had handcnfls placed on him while he was in bed, and was kept for twelve days and nights in a cell on bread and water. The first day he was birched, and when he came out he was caned. The birch was soaked in lime before it was ready for use, in order that its effects might be the more painful. Another boy died in the storeroom; another little fellow took poison because the officials were always it An " on Ldm . ..... .. 1.--... :1-I:L__-L_I__ - A; ‘I‘OMUBES “All“ AS BAD AS 'l'lll!

A POOR ENGLISH LAD. A western actor claims that. while per- forming as Julius Cremr, he is under the spirit control of the dead Emperor, and does nothing of his own volition. to reduce a great captain, fortune m erately favoring him. And Moltlre has at least taken care that fortune should as rarely as possible be against him. " From Saarbruclr to Sedan." it was said of him. “ he left nothing to chance.” According to a story which explains much. a friend of Moltke’s once encountered him in the streets of Berlin, on a memorable morning in the second half of J uly. 1870. The French ultimatum had just been received.and the friend,after a hasty greeting. was moving on. " Whither away so fast?" asked Moltke. “Oh, I know on must be busy.” " Not at all. Everyt ing is ready.” And, German-wise. the famous strategist carried off his com- panion to a cafe, to talk philosophy over a glass of Bavarian beer. At Versailles the French wondered to see him so often "doing nothing,” as it appeared to them. Evening after evening he strolled into the restaurant he had chosen as leisurely as any rich young officer in acrack cavalry re iment. and stayed as long at table as otiers. Not that he Is anything of an epicure. his tastes being of the simplest. It was noticed that a favorite dish of his was roast goose. He had so thoroughly mas- tered his work that he had no need to be fussy over it. (Grenville Murray in the Geneva Continental Times.) The reasons of Moltke’s amazing success are not far to seek. It has been suggested that the military art may be no very pro- found mystery, that “ its principles are the principles of plain good sense, and that a quick eye, a cool head and astout heart will do more to make a general than all the diagrams of Jomini.” These considera~ tions do not quite exhaust the subject ; but there is no doubt that the above natural qualifications, combined with the serious study of tactics, are pretty certain when she was subsequently fired and se adrift. \Vhen the trial of McLeod for tn: murder of Durfee came on at Uticu, I was subpoenaed as one of the witnesses for th ‘ prosecution, and I remember we all steppe at Bagg’s Hotel,and there was great excite ment there, and all around.

He was tried before the Oyer and Terminer Court, Judge Gridley presiding, and it was generally believed at that time that the conviction and execution of McLeod for murdering Durfee and turning the Care- line would have certainly precipitated a second terrible war between Great Britain and the United States. When the jury re- turned in twenty minutes and pronounced th prisoner not guilty, ‘all was hushed an quiet,’ says the printed report, ‘and there was no excitement visible anywhere. The prisoner’s keen grey eyes brightened up somewhat, and taking his hat and cloak, he slowly retired with his counsel from the courtroom, where perhaps the destinies of a nation had been determined in his own verdict of acquittal. ’ " tress Geode whipped two or three times in New Yorkllciioob on Cost.
