In connection with this pre- dictiOn some remarks of Rudolf F alb, the Austrian physicist are interesting. He points out that the great floods of the rec snt months have occurred at the time of tb new moon or the full moon, and he invites. observers to notice the lunar time of all heshets. He in- sists also that meteorology should rely more extensively on astronomy. The violent cy- clones and rainstorms of our latitude. he thinks, are caused frequently by the meeting of equatorial and polar sir currents, and he predicts such for our Atlantic coast from March to g. On the latter day, he observes, three agencies will conspire to produce Hoods, namely, the new moon, the perigee and the equatorial position of the moon For the second half of next week he promises gales, thunderstorns, hail, heavy rains and inund ations, though he intimates that the battle may take place several miles above the surf ace of the United States
 Ghe Supreme court of Missouri has given 8 decision of special interest to physicians. The suit was on policy of insurance. and the appeal presented the question to the Su- preme court whether information obtained by physician from patient, orally or by observation, can be disclosed on the witness stand. The defendants counsel claimed that the statute of Missouri referred only to oral information. The statute declares that a physician or surgeon shall be incompetent to testify concerning any information acquired by him from any patient while attending him in professional character, which informa- tion was necessary to enable him to prescribe for such patient as a physician or do any thing for him as surgeon. But the court held that to say that while the mouth of physician is nailed up as to information &C., quirSd orally from his patient and opened wide as to information acquired from source upon which he mostly relies, viz, his own diagnosis of the case, would be to restrict the operation of the statute to narrower im- it's than was ever intended by the Legisla- ture, and virtually to overthrow it.
