MRS. E. E. Dickinson, in the Churchman.l
I related something of q conversation
between Mr.. Longfellow and myself
on spiritualism few months be-
fore his death, or rather a con-
versation on the influence and near
ness which many persons experience in
regard to those who were dear to them
and have gone into the mysteries of eter-
nifty. Mr.. Whittier listened with great
great interest, adding that he was aware
that Mr.. Longfellow had some remark
able ideas and sympathies of the kind,
but had never talked with him on the
subject, "and for myself" he added,
II have felt but very slightly that close
ness and nearness of the unseen of which
you speak. After few moments in the
progress of our talk, he remarked:
''Life is mystery, death is mystery.
I am like the Chinese philosopher, Con-
fucius, who, when he was asked, what
is death ? answered, Life is such q
mystery that I do not seek to penetrate
beyond it." May I ask if yon believe
in the progress of the soul after death ?"
"Whv not? Surely we are to be placed
in inches to remain there forever. We
shall doubtless there have what we lack
here, and that is my idea of heaven" "
"No troubles, no vexations ?" Well,
I do not think so. It seems to me we
must there, as well as here, have some
annoyances, to be quite content, in con.
trast." This was novel idea, and /
laughed in appreciation of it and said:
'Then you do not fancy supreme sat-
isfaction and content p "NO. no. not
L." laughing merrily. But we meet
people who are thoroughly delighted
with themselves and their surroundings
very frequently" True, and thee
hast seen CLAIMS at high tide; they re.
mind me of such people. All ! we shall
have some trials in the life beyond (and
here the poets fine dark eyes lighted up
with rare inteligence). but our happi-
ness will be all the sweeter, and every
thing will be harmonized. y =, '%ss.

ease was observed. In second expert
ment, six out Of eight Guinea-pigs were
inoculated with cultivated bacilli, de-
rived originally from the tuberoulous
lung of q monkey, bred and rebred for
ninety-fv days, until eight gen.
erations had been produced. Every
one of these animals was attacked,
while the two uninfected Guinea-pigs re.
mained perfectly healthy. Similar ex-
periments were made with cats, rabbits,
rats, mice and other animals, and, with
out exception, it was found that the in
lection of the parasite into the animal
system was followed by decided and, in
most cases, virulent tubercular disease.
In the cases thus far mentioned, inocu-
lation has been effected in the abdomen.
The place of incubation was afterwards
changed to the aqueous humor of the
eye. Three rabbits each received a
speck of bacillus culture, derived orig
inally from human lung affected with
pneumonia. Eighty-nine days had been
devoted to the culture of the organism.
The infected rabbits rapidly lost flesh,
and after twenty-five days were killed
and examined. The lungs of every one
of them were found charged with tuber-
cles. OF three other rabbits, one re-
ceived an injection of pure blood-serum
in the aqueous humor of the eye, while
the other two were infected in similar
way with the same serum containing
bacilli, derived originally from diseased
lung and subjected to ninety-one days.
cultivation. After twenty lone days the
rabbits were killed. The one which had
received an injection of pure serum was
found perfectly healthy, while the lungs
of the two others were found overspread
with tubercles."
In the same letter, Prof. Tyndall calls
attention to the fact that in no other
way than by experiments upon animals
could this valuable discovery have been
made, and regrets that the "noisy fan
atheism" of conservatives, by making
vivisection punishable in England, has
debarred English scientists from making
further Investigations into this great,
vital subject. DIR. Koch has already
made himself we'll know by his investi-
cations into the nature of splenic fever,
which were marked by so much thor
oughness and skill.

KOCH's DISCOVERY IN TUBERCULAR
DISEASE

DR.. Koch, government adviser of the
imperial health department of Berlin,
has lately published series of results
of Investigations into the etiology of in.
fective disorders; the last in the form of
an address read before the Berlin Ply
siological Society, on the 'Etiology of
Tubercular Disease" In this he claims
to have discovered bocilli, parasites
which infest tuberculous patients. Prior
to his experiments, it has been estab-
lished beyond doubt that tubercular dis
ease was communicable, but the nature
of the contagion was still mystery.
This discovery is one of great impor-
tance; for, though no practical result can
yet be derived from it that can materially
alter the treatment of this disease, fur
ther investigation will no doubt throw
more light on the subject. We give 8
condensed account of some Of his exper>
iments, taken from letter by Prot.
John Tyndall to the London Daily
Times: Permit me to give q further,
though still brief and sketchy account
Of Koch's experiments. OF six Guinea
pigs, all in good health, four were inocu-
lated with baciii derived originally from
human lung, which IN fifty-four days
had produced FIVE successive genera
tions. Two Of the six animals were not
infected. In every one Of the infected
cases tho Guinea-pig sickened and lost
flesh. After thirty-two days, one Of
them died and after .thirty-five days, the
remaining ive were killed and examined.
In the Guinea-pig that died, and in the
three remaining infested ones strongly
pronounced tubercular disease had set
