new DIsCOYERY-..TIIE AGuE PLANT.

NEW DESCOVERY---THHE AGUE PLANT.
The "ague plant has recently been diseov-
ered,- the plant that cures ague, but the
one that causes it. Here is one plant, at least,
that we can notice without being overwhelm-
cd with applications for seed. To be sure it
is little thing, and takes good eye, aided
by good microscope, to find it, but when
found, it can not be said it 'sis no great
shakes, for il is the "genuine Shaker seed
ling itself. Doct. l. II. Salisbury, of Cleve-
land, Ohio, announces in the American Jour
nal of the Medical Sciences, that fever and
ague is caused by minute plant, which is
found where stagnant water has Just dried
away. The spores, or reproductive dust OF
this microscopic plant, are diffnsed through
the damps, and being taken into the system
BY breathing, are the cause of that wide
spread scourge, the ague. The habits Of
these minute plants completely accord with
what was before known Of the occurrence of
miasm, and that they are the real cause of it
has been shown by taking boxes of earth
containing them, to places where an ague
was never known to occur. In about two
weeks after the ague plant was taken there,
well marked cases of the disease appeared.
This discovery does not as yet increase our
knowledge of the means of ridding ourselves
OF the plant, but it will probably lead to that
just as one if he can only find out show he
got such cold?'l is already half cured. The
spores only rise in the night, and then to a
hight varying withthe locality, of from thirty
to one hundred feet This explains why night
air brings on ague, and why elevated Iocali-
ties are free from it. After the ague seed is
taken into the system, the plant is propaga-
ted there, and the patient becomes sort of
animated hotbed.-Amer. Agri.
