THEGERM THEORY OF DISEASE.
Prof. Tyndall on the nature ofTyphoId
POssOn-Et is a Seed Reproduced
and Developed In the Hu-
man System

Prof. John Tyndall writes a letter 10
the London Times, called forth bv a
treatise on typhoid fever by DR.. William
Budd. The following is the Concluding
paragraph Of the letter:
"What is the nature Of the typhoid
poison? The yellow typhoid matter
already referred to, Budd describes as
made up Of indicated cells. The term
germ theory does not, to my knowl-
edge, occur In the volume, possibly be-
cause OF the opposition and ridicuIe
which that theory encountered in the
English medical press. Over and over
again Budd speaks of germs but il
might be imagined that he used the
word figuratively. Those who knew
him, however, were well aware that this
was not the case; and in the early part
of the present volume, after describing
the calamities incident to typhoid fever,
he remarks: st is humiliRting that is
sues such as these should be contingent
on the powers of an agent SO low in the
scale Of being that the mildew
which springs on dscsying wood
must be considered hig2 in comparison
-Four or five years ago I, an outsider,
ventured upon this ground Of medical
theory, for il involved no knowledge Of
medical practice, but simply a capacity
to weigh evidence; and the evidence
that epidemic diseases were parasitic APP
pesred to me very strong. On the ninth
Of June, 1871, Ventured to express nv.
self thus: with their respective viruses
you may plant typhoid fever, scarlatina,
or smallpox. What are the crops that
arise from this husbandry? As surely as
q AhfcfIa rfrou from n ~, frfla -eaad
" as the fig comes from the fig. the
grape from the grape, and the thorn
from the thorn, so surely does the ty-
phoid virus increase and multiply into
typhoid fever, the scarlatina virus into
the smallpox virus into
smallpox. What is the conclusion that
itself here? 1t is this: that the
thing which we vaguely call virus is to
llintents and purposes a seed; that, ex-
Guiding the notion of vitality, in the
whole range Of chemical science
you cannot point to an action
which illustrates this perfect par
allelism with the phenomena of
ife-this demonstrated power of
STANDARDIZATION and reproduction
It was the clear and powerful writings of
William Budd, Joined to those of the
celebrated Pasteuf, that won me TO
these views. 1t is partly with view
Of stamping at a receptive moment
salutsry truths upon the public mind,
but partly also through the desire of
justice to q noble intellect, |
which has been literally sacrificed to the |
public good, that 1 draw attention, not |
1nly to the mastery combination Of OBJ /
,ervation and inference exhibited from |

,ut also to the browning fact already
published in the medical journals, and |
o which my attention was first drawn

The prot1er of $4,000 volunteer soldiers

for the purpose Of suppressing the new re.
bellion in Louisiana and other Southern

the jeopardy in which the rash fre-brands
of the South have placed the Democratic

before the people as a war against the

overthrow the government Of one Of those

The members Of the advisory board were
in session several hours. yesterday, discus
sing their duties and the work before them.
The only business made public is contained
in the following resolutions adopted by the
board:
Rcsolred, That the following be suggested
TO Colonel William Wright, State registrar.
as u proper instruction to supervisors and
assistant supervisors Of election:
l: All citizens of the State who will have
attained the age of twenty zone years at any
time between the closing of the registration
and the day OF election, and who are other.
wise qualified. should be allowed to register
on She last day of registration, and that the
affidavit to be taken by said citizens must
accordingly state the said fact.
.. That the ten DAYS residence required
by law. should not be ten days residence
since the attainment of the age Of majority.
but simply previous to the application tor
registration.
Rcsolrea. That the resolution. adopted By
this board, relative to the facilities to be
extended to the United States supervisors
by the State supervisors and assistant
supervisors OF election, to make such lists
in the judgment Of the United States super.
visors may be necessary to verify the regis.
tratioh. he referred to Mr.. Woofey. United
States chief supervisor: and that he be re.
qnested. if it meets his view, to indorse the
instructions to be issued thereon by the
State registrar.
ResolccG. That we recommend that super.
visors and assistant supervisors throughout
the State be instructed to permit the United
States supervisors to make lists of all per.
sons who may have been registered. The
tSN hrA
tration. and public notice be requested to
this effect.

We hare missed for some time, a: the
delivery window Of the Postottice, Mr.. st.
Felix Casanaye. WHO was SO thoroughly
posted in his duties and 20 Obliging. Ac.
cidentally meeting him. he gave the in.
formation that he Lad been discharged.
The natural inference was that some po.
litical action Of his. perh APPS in relation to
the ward troubles OF this parish. Or perhaps
in insisting Oh what he thought was right
in other matters, or what not. was the
reason. But in inspe citing his discharge
the reason was obvious. The department
has ordered q reduct ion Of the fo,ce to
keep within the appr opriation allowed"
This is a sutiicisn. cxpla nation and shows
that nothing political caused his discharge;
but it is matter Of regret that Mr.. Casa
nave should be selected in compliance with
the order. instead Of many other less
deserving officials. He has been there q
long time. was thorou ghly conrersant with
