AbSinthe.

During the session Of the medical
congress at Lyons one day was set
apart for the study of alchoholic slim
ulants. On that occasion the physi-
clan of Sainte-Anne asylum, DR.. Mag
nan, comparing the chemical action
Of absinthe on man, drew the conclu-
sion that the former acts more slowly,
gradually provoking delirium and
digestive arrangement, while-absinthe
rapidly results in epilepsy. Then,
producing a couple Of dogs, he treated
one with alchohol and the other with
essence of absinthe, this latter being
the active principle Of the absinthe
liquor which is commonly drank. The
alcohoiized brute could not stand up,
became sleepy and stupid, and, when
set on his legs, trembled. in an inert
mass: the other dog experienced at
once frightful attacks Of epilepsy.
Analogous effects are produced in
mankind. Surely the "absinthe
duel" which is said to have taken
place at Cannes, when both the COM
batants persisted after drinking an
extraordinary quantity, may be strict
ly denominatel duel with deadly
weapons. III the south Of France, it
is said, one person sometimes invites
another to partake of absinthe by the
slang phrase, "Take shovel full of
earth;" as if an American bar-room
lounger, recognizing with grim humor
the deadly quality Of his liquor, should
say, "Come and get measured for
your coffin" The French expression
has certainly, in view of DR.. Mag
mans disclosures, Il melancholy, pic
turesqneness. This subject has to
France u national Importance, since,
if the recent report of DR.. Bergeron
does not exaggerate, the absintism
introduced amongst the French army
in general by the Algerian officers did
its part toward producing that inert
ness and lack OF yigor which generals
often complained Of in their subordi
mates during the disastrous invasion
Of 1870.-LippincoH for March.

Proclamation by the Governor.


On the l3tl, instant Governor kel-
logg issued the following proclama-
ton:
Whereas, reliable information has
reached me that certain evil disposed
or misguided persons PROP to com
: bine, or have combined, into associa-
tions, for the purpose of resisting the
payment of taxes due the State, with
the ayowel object Of bringing the
State government into disrepute, and
with the further, ;,vowed evil purpose
Of overthrowing the said State gov
eminent, by preventing it from receiv-
ing, through the collection Of taxes,
the means for its support; and
Whereas, 1t is of the first impor-
lance to restore the credit Of the State
and city, now impaired by the revo-.
lutionary conduct of certain preten-
ders to official station in this State,
by. the defalcations and derelictions
of duty Of tax collectors under the
late State Administration, by the acts
of the Tax Resisting Association Of
New Orleans, ian organization which
has been in existence for more than
eighteen months past), and by other
causes; and
Whereas, experience shows that tax
resisting associations result in the
wcalthicr classes escaping payment of
their taxes, while poorer men are not
only compelled to pay their taxes,
but additional penalties and costs,
and in addition thereto Il much heavier
rate of taxation than would be re-
quisite if. those better able to pay
promptly met their just obligations to
the State; and
Whereas, the delinquent tax lists
of this State, as shown by the Audi
tors books, amount to the enormous
sum Of 1881 ,;}2l 60-the proportion
of the city OF New Orleans alone being
81, 492 ,2255 s5-said taxes having ac-
crued and fallen due under the late
administration, and the greater portion
Of them being due from those best
able to pay; and
Whereas, it is but just and right
that the burden of supporting the State
government should fall as equitably
us possible, under the law, upon all
classes OF the population, and that no
one class should be allowed to evade
the payment of taxes, either by COM
binatiOns and associations under the
gslise OF passive resistance, or by any.
other illegal means OF pretences; and
Whereas, it is made my imperative
duty to see that the taxes are duly and
promptly collected, and that all per-
sons who conspire in any way to in
iure the State credit, whether by pas
sive or~active resistance, shall be pre-
vented from such unlawful acts;
Now, therefore, /, William 2. kel-
logg, Governor of the State of Louis
lama, being DESTROYS Of avoiding, if
possible, the prosecution Of any citi-
gen, and being anxious to restore the
public credit, and to inaugurate an
