Sept. 28, Edmund Sager, sea. and jun. and William and Richard thet both suffered from;tbe yellow freer and the plague. %%carver an epidemical disease =lam it is produced by local causes, which cannot always be explained. The yellow fever is nothing but a very intense fever, accompanied by the jaundice—the plague is nothing but an intense fever, attended with buboes, parotides, &c. These pestilential buboes are absolutely the same as the' pustules of the nature of carbuncles, which we noticed in all partkof France, and which are in a manner en demic in some of the provinces. The disorders called yellow fever and plague appear continually in all pats of France ; but as they are called by another wantet s att mention is made of contagion, and no precaution is teken. It is for this reason that they ;re not attended with the fatal consequences which Away s follow the _offieial declaration of these maladies. The measures which are called sanitary, occasion all the accidents 'which they profess-to:- prevent. At Cairn, as at Con stantinople, when the plague has a contagions influence, is savages only ;attain quarters, whilst others more healthy are always exempt from it. The plague. which exists in Lower Egypt never penetrates into the Upper." M. Lassis then made souse observations relative to the at Barcelona. A flarlitnitleVOlN formed, -- '—umtake Vast the soontagion was Which 'but a chimera; this Committee published the reasons upon which they, had formed this opinion, , which were so conclusive that they effected the conversion of a tele brated phisician t *ho had before been at the head of the -contegionims. Lassis p-esented a list of ten ,commones in Barcelona, enclosed wi the , cordon. sanieeire, in which SOO sick took refuge. The inhabitants cotutruoicated constantly with the city, but no ahem-. tion took place in their health. M. Lassis concluded, by declaring that he not only did not believe that either the plague, the yellow fever, or any other typhus, was contagious, but be, denied also the existence of infecliox, and he thought that the adoption of this latter opinion did not cause less calamitous results than the idea of contagion itself. At the conclusion of the memoir, a very interesting . .discussion took place in the Academy relative to cots tagioa. M. Laennec commenced the discussion, and - interrogated the author as to . wbether he absolutely de- nied the existence of contagion in every species of rlis without resttiction. • Lassis replied, that he always excepted As measles and syphilis, but he excepted those only. " Since M. Lulls," continued M. Laennec, inilates file malignant pustule of Burgundy to the pestilential buboes of the.plague, sad is he pretends that these two disorders are the same, would it not be better, according to him, to begin by making experi ments on the disorder which we have now berme us; and thus arrive at the conclusion which, in the opinion of non-cootagionists, might be legitimately extended to the plague ?" M. Lassis replied, dm the malignant pustule of Burgundy isincit more, malignant than the. plague; but that the experiments which might be made on it could not undeceive the public. "We must strike at the root of the evil," said he; " it is the plague of the Levant which is feared, and it is to the plague of the Levant that we must address ourselves." M. Geoffroy Saint Hilaire observed, that he would communicate to the. Academy the result of the observa tions which he had himself made in Egypt. " I have never made them public: added he, " either in my lectures, or by means of the Journals; and though the communications. which I am going to make do not po sitively refer to the fundamental merits of the question; yet I think they are not entirely devoid of all interest's The plague does not reign exclusively in Lower Egypt; it ravages sometimes the Lower and sons:times the Upper, but never both at the same time; and it is always subordinate to-the influence of the overflowing of the Nile: If this river rises very high, Upper Egypt is attacked by the plague, because it is influenced by the exhalations which rase from the damp earth heated by the sun. The lower country, on the contrary, situ ated beneath the place where the emanation of delete rious gases takes place, is exempt from it.. The upper country remains healthy, because it is exempt from humidity; but Lower Egypt being in its turn subject to the ihfluence of damp and heat, is ravaged by this destructive scourge. It is, therefore, to the Nile *lone that we must attribute the plague in Egypt ; and co deliver that country from it, it would be necessai T to take away that river. The-Nile, throughout the course of the year, dominates over the health of the country ; and its variations totally change the medical constitu• tions of the regions which it waters; and it results that these constitutions have an energy of which we have no M. Bow related the same fact, bat stated that persons might descend into the port every day without coo tracting. the contagion, but that they coulitame with impunity mike it their usual residence, or sleep tbem. Mt Leasure observed, that in spite of all that had besii.said, as to the climate being as powerful iusugeot 1* the production of the plague as the yellow fever, he thought there wain .reason to believe that an identity existed betwezn those two disorders. It was requisite to divide the question, and malceinsolated experiments. The author then reverted to his first proposition, relative to the malignant pustule of Burgundy, and observed, that researches on contagion should com mence with an enquiry into this. M. Pariset said, he was astonished; that in this dis cussion thomost nreorious facts relative to the late-epi dewy at.ilisiecelona alone should Irate bees -bionght for ward. It seemed to have been forgotten, that - Tottosa *as infected by a patient, who,. on leaving Barcelona, took refuge there; as was also Palma ;- and that in the port of. Mahon similar communicatiorabad caused the same disorder. A vessel front Lara, finding the poets of Spain shut, put into the Lazaretto at Marseilles. This vessel had-communicated with Mahon, and almost the whole of the new perished at Marseilles. " There is-not, perhaps," continued M. Pariset, 41 a more healthy .village in the world than Carlotta. Situate on the de. ,c 1 city of a bill, and removed from all species of finest or stagnant water, the air there leas a free circulation, the streets being sixty feet broad ;- and yet thil spot, so healthy. and delightful, has suffered from the yellow fever, which bad been brought there by patients af fected with it. It has been said that the villages in the vicinity of Ramelona were exempt from yellow fever, in spite of the number of sick who had perished there; but it is certain, on the contrary, that when an infected person-is assiduously taken care of, either by a parent or a. friend, the person who had constantly come in close cautact with him is sure to contract the disorder. It is r heivever, true, that de -new patient would scarcely ever transmit the. disorder himself, for all contagious disorders lose their force in passing from an individial, other than the one who first propagated it. Numerous facts might be cited of muleteers whir, in transporting merchandise, had brought the disorder into places where it had not before existed. These facts ate noto rious, and I can assure you, upon my honour, that the great majority of Spanish physicians do not in any way doubt tie reality of contagion." The President observed, that as the Academy of Me dicine were to discuss the subj 'cc' of contagion when the Report was presented, it would be desirable to close the debate upon the subject. M. Lassis, who was about to address the Academy before the closing was ordered, eonteated himself with_ observing that it would not be defficuk to refute the as seitioas of M. Pariset.

We.left Barcelona in a and comfortable Diligence, drawn by eight mules. We Lad a guard of ragged s oldiers all the way from Bar celona to Valentia; they were on foot, but had no difficulty to keep up with us, and they wets relieved at *eery relay. From Valentia to Madrid is about 262 English miles, which we travelled in four days. This city, from the distance, is remarkably attractive, well built, and the streets wide and airy. .It was reported a day or two hick, that a troop of a regiment of Bt. Jago had revolted, andisad proclaimed Charles V. ( che King's brother). There is no dnubt of- the fact:for' they have marched from Madrid, and a regiment of the- Cuirassiers have been sent after them, and it ii wrongly suspected that they will join the rebels. Charles is the favourite of the priests, on account of the dispo sition be has shewn to call back the Inquisition, and to favour coercive Bind not cone liatory measures.. This revolt is said to be premature and hasty, sad. will. on that account, be easily quelled. There have be many arrests throughout the whole country within these few Slays.
