A Great Medical Discovery.

The article which follows, published in
the Scientific Bulletin. of Paris. is entitled
"1he Application of Chemical Electricity
to Therapeutics" Though not literal. the
substance Of the article is intact. The Bull
letin says:
Chemistry is about to drag from an an
ticipated death thousands of men. who. in
the exercise Of their cruel professions-glld-
ing looking lass plating, white lead manu-
featuring. &c, and also those systems have
been ruined by mercury in its various forms
for this science has raised her right arm
and arrests their misery and Instruction.
This discovery extracts from their bodies,
atom by atom, every particle of metallic sub
stance from every part Of tie human system
Where do we get this great hope? In a
memoir presented to the French Academy
Of Sciences by NJ. Dumas, which has for its
authors two men whose names will strike
the ear of the public for the first time to-
day. But if they prove what they promise
to they will soon take rank among the great
est benefactors of humanity. These authors
are Andre Poly, of Havana, and Maurice
Vergnes. The invention consists of an ap-
piication of chemical electricity to accom-
pliSh the above purpose, and of all the mar
yeouS things that electricity has achieved
this is the boldest and most triumphant.
The moduS operandi is as follows: A me-
tallic bath is insulated from everything, and
partially flied with acidulated water, to con-
vey more readily the electrical currents
The patient lies upon seat in the tub IN
Sulated entirely from the bath. When gold
silver, or mercury is in the system nitric or
hydrochlOric acids are employed. When
lead is suspected, the acid used is sulphuric.
This done, the negative pole Of a battery is
put in connection with the bath, while the
positive pole is in the hands of the patient.
Now the work Of puriiication commences.
The electricity percipitateS itself, hunts.
digs, searches. and discovers every particle
OF metallic substance concealed in the most
profound tissues, bones, nerves, and joints of
the patient, resolves them into their prImi-
tive forms, and, extracting them entire from
the human organism, deposits them upon
the sides Of the bath, where they can be seen
with the naked eye.
After the end of one Of those operations a
chemist of Havana NJ Mossand, having
analyzed 9l2 drachms Of the liquid in the
bath. saw foaming metallic globule Of the
diameter Of nine-tenths Of a mile metre, and
tins was mercury At another tipe the
same chemist saw very light white, per
cipitated substance, which gave two glob-
ules OF metallic lead, perfectly visible to the
naked eye and NJ. Poly announced that he
mad taken from the tiba and thigh-bone Of a
patient quantity Of mercury that had been
there, creating intense suffering for fifteen
years.

A Sonnet by Daniel webster.

We are indebted, says the ". Y. Courier g. En-
q'eTer, to the kindness of lady for the privilege
OF publishing the following lines by Mr.. Webster
written by him in the Album of an American
friend while on his visit to England. Our read
ers, we believe, will agree with US in thinking il
a happy idea, happily expressed:-
THE MEMORY OF THE HEART
II stores of dry and learned lore we gain
Close keep them in the memory of the brain;
Names, things, and facts-whate'e we knowl
edge call,
There is the common ledger for them all;
And images on this cold surface traced,
Make slight Impressions and are soon effaced.
But we've page more glowing, and more bright
On which our friendship and our love to write,
That these may never from the soul depart,
We trust them to the Memory Of the heart,
There is no dimming-no effacement here;
Each new pulsatiOn keeps the record clear;
Warm golden letters all the tablet fill
Nor lose their luster till the heart stands still.

From on old Magazine-published in 1898.
Prophecy Eu41i.icG.

We notice the Arkansas papers begin to
talk about anneXing the province OF Calfor-
MA to the Western Territory The next
news we shall hear, it may be, that com
pany has formed to go out and establish a
colony on the Gulf Of California. The best
harborS on the Pacific are found on the
Peninsula Of California. while the amenity
OF the climate and the richness of the soil is
not surpassed by the garden spots Of the
earth. in natural advantages even Texas.
with all It's bOasted agricultural facilities,
would not compare with theregions around
about California. 1t is the Paradise OF
North America.
The possession Of the country is nominal
ly III Mexico. The territory, however, is
unoccupied and in a wild state, with the ex-
ceptloh Of few small settlements separated
by remote distances.
There then is the finest country on the
globe open to the first occupants. We
should not be surprised soon to hear of our
adventurous pioneers in the West moving
TO That remote quarter. 1t is not much far
ther on than Texas used to be- when the
first settlement Of the young Republic was
made. A Yankee colony then, would be d
great acquisition to Mexico, if the govern
ment were disposed to receive them kindly
AT any rate, the point is 50 distant from
the settled provinces Of Mexico, that the in
truders might remain safe from molestation
Mexico IS too busy in keeping her own un-
ruly population in subsection, to find time to
be troubling herself about a small American
settlement in a remote corner of her domin-
ions. The fact is becoming obvious that
Mexico cannot long retain a hold of her I'M
wleldy domain. Great Britain or France,
will ere long be stretching their hands to-
wards California, if we do not.
The plan of a Colony on the Gulf we
think IS not bad one Like the Colony
planted in Texas twenty years ago, it would
prove to be prolific germ, that would grow
rapidly, and soon expand into a fourshing
and powerful republic. The time has per-
maps not quite arrived for the accomplish
ment OF the scheme, but the day cannot be
lar OH when the Anglo-SaXon settlements
VIII be seen planted on the shores OF the
Pacific. The Mexicans will never muster
enterprise and industry enough to settle and
subdue the country TO harder and more
ciVlllzed race will belong the glory of found
ing an empire Of Federal Republican States
along the Pacific coast, extending from the
extremity OF California to to the boundary
OF the Oregon Territory.
