SOURCE OF INFECTIOUS DISEASES

All of the infectious diseases I'M
doubleday possess an original habitat,
where it is probable they are now as
always capable of spontaneous origin
in their primitive form, whatever that
may be. The difficulty of tracing
disease types through various local.
ties, and among different people of the
globe, have, up to this time, prevented
a precise knowledge upon this point,
which time may yet bring to us. 1t
seems tolerable certain, however, that
the several acute infectious diseases
named below have the nativities here
attributed to them.
The Cholera - Has it's home in
India.
The Small Pox- In the East.
Known III China nearly twelve hun
dred years before Christ.
The Plague - An Oriental disease.
Has distinct geographical range.
The Typhus Fever = Ireland is its
birthplace.
The Typhoid and Relapsing Fevers
Have fixed centres. in Ireland Gal
icia. Upper Silesia and some provinces
Of Northern Italy.
The Military Fever = Is endemic
in a few provinces of France, Germany
and Italy.
Scarlatina - Probably native of
Arabia.
Epidemic Dysentery - Home in
the tropics.
The Dengue In Southern lati-
tudes, with sharp geographical limits.
The Yellow Fever = Distinctly
traced to the Antilles.
The Chabalongo - Chill.
The Verruga - Peru.
Certain it seems that no general in
huence of exposure or even bad by
gienic surroundings will establish the
typical disease away from its local
habitat, except through the penalties
of beredity.-Logon's Physics of H.
.fectjoats Diseases.

Judge holds that the verdict is in &C.
cordsnce with the evidence. As to
the lrst point, that James Prince, one
Of the colored Jurors, was not o com.
pelent Juror, he being under age, and
Anderson, therefore, having been tried
by eleven Jurors, 10 violation of the
