A NEW THEORY OF CIRCULATION
BY THE LATE MRS. WILLARD.

York Trs6u5se's reports of the proceed
ings of the American Association for the
Advancement Of Science, at Troy.
In the evening a special session, largely
attended by ladies, was held at the
Willard Seminary building, when DR..
Morris of Maryland, read an account Of
the discovery of circulation by respira-
ton, by the late Mrs. Willard, written out
by her sister, Mrs Lincoln Phelps. Mrs.
willard, in writing of her discovery, thus
condenses the story The presence of
carbonic gas in the lungs causing disease,
and sometimes death, is new theory,
as well as that of circulation by. respira-
ton, and these two together have develop
ed new and important system, which |
have named Eripathy, and which, sim
pie as it seems includes fatal diseases, of
which the great scourge, cholera, is one. :"
The author then lays down certain
propositions proved by well-known facts
in chemistry. The blood receives caloric
from the lungs; the blood must, therefore,
expand and if it expands and moves
toward the left ventricle of the heart,
hence through the aorta and arteries, it
must Of two directions take that in which
it can and not one in which it can not
move. This is not intended To limit the
action of the heart to the adding of a
little more force To file vital current. It's
work is to furnish the gland machinery
whereby the very tide of hfe is kept in
motion. Indubitable evidence was given
of persons believedo5t to have died from
cholera and like epidemics, by the APP

his dinner table at Metz the members off

army. They were waited upon By
servant of remarkably good appearance
and manner; SO good, indeed, that the
Marshals wife was struck with it, and
expressed her establishment on leaving
the table. The Marshal at first laughedli
at his wife's remarks, assuring her that
the servant was not a grand signeur ind
