The Ague Poison.

sT. p. Bolestra has communicated to the
French Academy some observations on ague
poison. He says that in examining marsh
water he always finds, In proportion to its
degree of putre'action, granular m.crophvte
somewhat resembling in form the Cactus Pc
ruriaNus. 1t is always accompanied by a con-
siderable quantity ofsmall spores l-lo00 Of a
mihlmeter in diameter, greenish-yellow, and
transparent, and also sporangia or vcsicles
containing spores from 2-i0O to 1900 Of a
millimeter in diameter, and of very character
istic form. This plant grows on the surface
Of the water; when young, it is rainbow-iikc
in tints, and looks like spots Of oil. At the
low temperature of cellars and in water con-
tanning no vegetation, it develops slowly, but
in contact with air, and exposed TO solarrays
in the presence Of decomposnG vegetation. it
grows fast, disen2aging small gas bubbles.
A few drops Of arseninus acid, sulphite ct
soda, or, still better, neutral sulphte Of qui-
nine, stops its yeSetatou at the surface Of the
water, the spores become thin and transl'ar-
ent, and the sporancia alter so that they
would MOI --scognizcd These changes
may BE seen under th> microscope. NJ. Be-
lestra states that these spores can be found
in marsh air. lie caught agucs twice during

The year grows splendid; on the mountain
steep
Now fingers long the wairi and gorgeous
light,
Diving by slow degrees iato the deep,
Delicious night.
The fatal triumph of the perfect year,
Rises the woods magnificent array;
Reyond. the purple mountain heights appear
And SLOPE away.
The elm, with musical, slow motion, iaves
His long, 1.-THE branches on the tender ar
While from his top the gay Sordeile waves
His scarlet hair.
Where Spring first hid her vio!ets meath the
Where summers fingers opened, fold on
The odorous, wild. red roses heart ho"
The leaves Of gold
The loftiest hill-the lowliest fowerins
The fairesf fruit Of season and OF Cline
An wear alike the mood OF the superb
Autumnai time.
Now Nature pours her last and nobIest VINE
like some Bacchante beside the sihS'h"
streams -.
Reclipes enchanted day, wrapped IN DIVINE,
Impassioned dreams.
But where the painted leaves are failing ia, ,,
Amonc the vale, beyond the furthest hill,
T,,sre SITS a sbadow-dim, and sad, and vast,
And fingers still.
And still we hear voice among the AIMS,
= voice that moans among the haunted
woods,
And with the mystery of its sorrow fills
The solitudes.
For while CAV autumn silds the fruit and leaf
And doth her farest testal garments wear
To! Time, all noiseless, in his mighty sheaf
Binds up the wear.
The mighty sheaf which never is unbound :;
The reaper whom your souls beseeeh III
vain =,
The loved, lost year that never may be found
Or loved again.
