A WOMAN COVERED WITH MITES.—A
about forty years of age, after having been ill for twenty. ye
and whose re-establishment was given up, placed herself tylui:
the care of a physician, who promised to cure her by a violent
remedy. In fact, after a short time she felt considerably
but was much troubled with a severe itching over her whe
body. Judge of her surprise on observing, whenever O.
scratched herself, that thousands of little brown animals, slow!'
imperceptible, issued from beneath the skin. These aninis's;
on being.examined by M. Ilory St. Vincent, a living ailth„c:
of reputation, and whose veracity is above suspicion, by Pieni;
of a microscope which magnified 500 times, were found t°3‘,„
of the genus acaras, and closely allied with the species ia:l
but there were differences sufficient to entitle him to can tnegui
new species. The unfortunate woman, who gavebirth to 0.
in thousands, particularly in warm weather, did not comMtL,
cote any of this troublesome progeny to those who attentled,;'
nor even to her husband, who continued to live with her. .-170
