A recent Paris letter 10 the New York

A recent Paris letter 10 the New yorL
Tribune, has the following paragraph:
The police heve just discovered new
phase in the great science Of legerdemain, as
applied to the various arts employed by che
walters industrie Mr.. Matsell ought to be
on bis guard, for Paris sets the fashions. and
New York follows them The process is sim
ply this: Awelldressed man goes into a Jew
eller's shop, and goes into somewhat min
ute examination of the stock, without, how
ever finding anything to his taste. Unwil-
ling to give the Jeweller so much trouble to
no purpose, he makes some slight purchase,
and takes out bis purse to pay the price At
this moment chimney sweep, with piteous
whine, comes into the shop and begs sou
for the love Of God The well dressed man
losses the ten sou piece upon the floor. which
the Savoyard seizes and makes off monument
At this moment the jeweller perceives that
his most valuable breast-pin or ring has dis
appeared from the counter. The stranger
insists on being searched. and upon the jew
eller's refusal so to do, declares that he will
not stir till all doubt, as far as be is concern
ed is removed. The shop keeper red with
shame at feeling in the pockets Of SO well
dressed man, at last complies. 1t is need
less to say that no breast pin is found The
stranger retires triumphant. Spite of this,
however. this same stranger is the thief. The
hand that sought the purse to pay for the OBJ
ject purchased, was closed upon the breast
pin in question. Being dropped into false
pocket in the well dressed mans pnntaloons.
it slid the whole length Of his leg, and fell
noiselessly on the floor. The chimney sweep,
who by the way, wasn't any more chimney
sweep than you are, in possessing himself of
the ten sou piece. grabbed the breast pin and
made off with this double booty. The clear
conscience and the stern integrity of the we'll
dressed man are thus easily understood. The
two accomplices, who generally bear the edi
flying relation, one to the other, of father ard
son. proceed in this way, with more or less
success, till one misstep, one very slight in
discretion, throws the police on their track
and ultimately. causes their detection and ar
rest.

As the dysenlary which, is now prevail

some importance to call the attention OF
medical men to the beneficial influence Of
sulphate OF quinia in this disease. 10 AZ
the writer OF this used il in African dys-
entary, and in the last year in dysentary
bordering on the tropic.
Conceiying there ives some analogy be-
tween intercepted fever and dysen!ary.
be believed thai quinine might be used
with as much efficacy in the one as in the
other; and the result, SO far as bis expe-
renee went, induced him TO consider
quiniae most important medicine In the
treatment Of dysenfary.
II may act by destroying morbid state
Of the blood, or il may produce its benef-
cial effects by its an,i.febrc and anti per-
todic. Does it not act by decomposing
the deleterious agency whatever it may
be) which, finding its way into the circu.
lation, engenders that combination of feb.
rile action with intestinal Inflammation,
which is termed dysen,ary.
OF course. other remedies of known pc.
tency were not discarded. From TO 10
grains Of quinine were given in solution
Of gum arabic thrice daily. Under its use
there was decided improvement.
Acting under the belief that il may not
be entirely useless in the present epidem-
ic, the writer has been induced TO give it
publicity. He claims for himself no origi.
