CoIOrinE the Eye.

Professor Lewis is credited with de-
vising very ingenious means of color
ing opacities in the corner of the eye.
The instrument used is bundle Of from
three to six very fine sewing needles in
serted into a handle. For coloring mat
ter, ordinary water pigments are used,
rubbed to a pasty consistence and mixed
with little glycerine. For the black of
the pupil India ink is employed. The
surface of the opage spot being wiped
clear from moisture, the paint is applied
thickly over it with a small pencil. The
needle points are made to penetrate re-
peatedly and rapidly in varying eirec-
tions, until much of the Opaque surface
is gone over With the pigment. Two OF
more repetitions of the process are nee
essary in order to realize the complete
effect The operation is said to give the
patient no pain, and, as the coloring
matter is regularly tattooed into the It's
sues, it cannot be washed out by tears.

Anrrtrnordinnrr rec.

A communication, which ought 10
have q special interest for Staten Is
land, New Jersey and other chill and
fever localities, has lately been ad
dressed TO the French Academy OF
Sciences by NJ. Gilbert, who has been
long engaged in oollectinl ryidopcs
concerning the eucalyptus globulus, a
tree Of extraordinarily rapid growth,
which attains huge dimensions, and ap.
pears TO possess an extraordinary power
Of destroying miasmatic influence in
fever-stricken districts. 1t has the sim
gular property Of absorbing ten times
its weight of water from the soil, and Of
emitting antiseptc camphorous eiiiuyia.
When sown in marshy ground 1t will
dry up in very short time. The En-
gllsh were the first TO try 1t at the Cape,
and within two or three years they com
pletely changed the climatic condition
Of the unhealthy parts of the colony.
a few years later its plantation was un-
dertaken on a large scale in various
parts OF Algeria. At Pardock, twenty
miles from Algeria, a farm situated on
the banks of the Hamyze, was noted
for its extremely pestilential air. In
the spring Of 1867 about $4,000 Of the
eucalyptus were planted there in July of
the same year-the time when the fever
season used to set in-not single case
occurred; yet the trees were not more
than nine feet high Since then com
plete immunity from fever has been
maintained In the neighborhood Of
Constantine the farm OF Ben Maehydlin
was equally in bad repute. 1t was coy,
cred with marshes, both in winter and
summer. In FIVE years the whole ground
was dried up by fourteen thousand OF
these same trees, and farmers and chill
dren enjoy excellent health AT the fac
tory of the Gay de Constan tine in three
years a plantation of eucalyptus has
twelve acres of marshy soil
into a magnificent park, whence fever
has completely disappeared. In the
island Of Cuba this and all other paludai
diseases are fast disappearing from all
the unhealthy districts where this tree
has been introduced. A station-honse
at one of the ends of railway in the
Of Var was so pestilental
that the officials could not be kept there
longer thar year. Forty of these trees
were planted, and it is now as healthy
as any other place on the line. We have
no information as to whether this bene
icient tree will grow in other than hot
climates. We hope that experiments
will be made to determine this poiat.

nr. Bandman PInehes an Actress,

From the London News
Herr Bandmann, tragedian, was sum
moned before the Plymouth magistrates
on Saturday, December 6, for assaulting
Mrs Margaret Mott. who plays lnder
the nnue Of Miss Montaigne, the FIRST
lady 0 ib- Plymouth Theater Company.
Herr Baudmauu, Who fulfilled starring
engagement a. that theater last week
played Narcisse, and Miss Montaigne
complained that when in the third act, as
Marquise de Pompadour, she did not sit
down quickly enough, the iragedian
pushed her violently on to the seat, and
that aiterward, when she died in his arms,
he pinched her badly in the side The
defence was that Herr Bandmann had not
used more force that was necessary to
the proper playing Of his part. Medical
evidence Of slight bruises was given.
Mr.. Otway, low comedian, gave il as his
opinion that too much violence was used,
while Mr.. Honeysett, another actor, said
that Herr Bandmann's action was neces-
sary to hide Miss Montaigne's bad acting
This case, which lasted nearly three
hours, was ultimately dismissed.

The Government Of one of the Argen-
tine provinces has offered liberal re-
ward for the re-discovery of mass of
meteoric iron which is often cited as
existing in neighboring aninhabted
region. 1t was first described in 1888
by two engineers who had been sent out
by the Government to investigate the
truth Of the Indian reports on the sub
ject. The mass was estimated by them
to weigh 10000 pounds. During the war
of independence a portion Of it was used
for the manufacture Of firearms.

In Canada burner is in use by which
residuum of crude petroleum is used in
stead of wood or coal in brick kilns By
a simple contrivauce, says the Oil
Journal" the nozzle of the burner is
made to throw the fame directly down
ward at the first firing, and after burning
this nozzle is replaced by straight one,
the change being effected in few mo
ments. The flame is thereby thrown into
the arch any required distance, burning
the whole kiln from one end, and doing
it in much less time than by the old
method

How he camo 20 Resign. .

From the Danbufy News.
Once upon time local editor
dreamed that he was dead and in another
world. He approached the gate Of a
city before him and knocked for admit
tance, but no one answered his summons.
The gate remained closed against him.
Then he cried aloud for entrance, but the
only responses were scores of heads APP
pearing above the wall on each side of
the gate. At sight of him the owners of
the heads set up dismal howl, and one
of them cried; why didn't you notice
the big egg gave your" At this horrid
and most unexpected interrogation, the
poor local turned in the direction of the
voice to learn its owner, when another
voice shrieked, where's the piece you
were going to write about my soda foun.
tain y And close upon that was the
awful demand; "Why did you write a
piece about old Peddle's fence. and
never say word about my new gate?'
Whatever answer he was going to frame
to this appeal was cut short off by the
astonishing query, What did you spell
my name wrong in the programme
forY The miserable man turned to
fee, when he was rooted to the spot by
the stern demand, why did you put
my marriage notice among the deaths2'
He was on the point Of saying the fore
man did it, when a shrill voice madly
cried, What made you put in my run
away and spoil the sale of my horse2'
And this was followed by the voice of a
female Historically exclaiming This
is the brute that botched my poetry and
made me ridiculousPp Whereupon hun
dreds of voices screamed, Where's my
Give me back my article
And in the midst Of this horrid din the
poor wretch awoke, perspiring at every
pore and screaming for help. The next
day he resigned. and we had to hunt up
anoiher local editor

Leaves.
The Revue de la Therapeutique emu
meratss come of the uses in which cab
bage leaves have proved of special value
in disease Among the uses thus speci-
Ged prominence is given to the property
this leaf possesses Of exciting and aug
menting suppuration Of the secretion of
Glcers, ulcerationy, yesicles and pustules
II has tho same action on the integu-
ments affected by inflammation from cry
sipelas or boils, and removes tissues in
a morbid condition. This augnenta-
ton of suppuratioR is constantly follow
ed by an amelioration aud often by a
cure-it is he condition necessary to
the result, and the proper oil the leaf
Vbieh determines this result is an inaI.
rectly curative property. But this prop
erty according to the Revue, does not
consist in any principle which the leaf
yields for absorption, but rather in an
affinity which the Leaf has for the yitiat-
ed seeretions. The lea. exercises this
affinity on open ulcers, or on ulcers coy-
cred by a thick or thin scab or crust,
and also on the thickened epidermiE or
where it is converted into thickened
membranes. The cure of an
ulcer by these leaves, however wide
spread and long standing il may be, is
without danger, and relapse is very rare.
