A Horrible Disease.

The San Francisco Call says that
an uLquestionable case of genuine
leprosy was presented at the health
Office there July 18Th. The subject
was SWede who had the appearance
of being 40 or IS years of age, al
though he might have been much
younger. go utterly does this dread
disease destroy the ordinary indica-
tons thst denote ones stage of life.
Formerly he was sailor, trading at
OhiLa and the East Indies. where by
long and constant intercourse and
contact with these leprous nations,
he absorbed the tsint of the disease.
For some years past he has been re-
siding in San Francisco, going out
through the country during the sum.
mer to work se q harvest hand. The
disease began to develop itself while
he was in Mercer county, and be
went to the county hospital there,
where the physicians being unfamil-
lar with leprosy, treated him for
another complaint, but as the disease
Withstood all their remedies and
steadily advanced, they became GUS
picious OF it's true character, and
wrote TO DR.. Mesres, the health off,
Ger of San Francisco, ss best authori-
ty on this coast ia such cases, and
sent the man there to be examined.
When DR.. Meares examined him he
had no hesitancy in pronouncing it
an unmisiakable case of genuine
leprosy, and as it is not to the inter-
est of the State that persons thus in
ficted should be scattered about
among the patients in the different
county hospitals, be was sent to the
pest house here. This is the second
case of leprosy in which the patient
was a white man that has occurred
here. The other was a native OF Ohio
who followed the ser for many years,
spending a great portion OF the time
in China and the China seas. When
the disease frat appeared on him be
went home to Ohio, bat finding that
it baff1ed all treatment and continued
to progress, he went back to the
East Indies. He arrived in San
Francisco and being too sick to pro-
coed further he went to tie smallpox
hospital here, where he remained
until be died, which wRs short time
ago. In the mem time his fingers
bad deCRyed sway and fallen of at
the joints, and his ;eet had half
dropped off. The 8wede whom Dr..
Mesres examined the ether day will
doubtless 60 the same way. His
fingers are drawn out of their natural
position, bis skin has leathery sp-
pesrspce with nsdules forming all
over his body. particularly on his
face and forehead, which bears an
unnatural color. His fate ia sealed,
and a horrible late it is. dying by de-
gress and rotting away by inches.

The Position in Sleep.

Persons OF eminent intellectual
force are among thoae who adhere to
a theory of Baron Reichenbach, of
Germany, that the head should al
ways lie towards the north while
sleeping. Their belief is that the
body, like the needle Of the compass,
can not he perfectly at rest until it
points toward the North Pole. By
what process Of reasoning do they
arrive at the conclusion that the elf
feet of polar attraction is any greater
upon the brain than upon any other
part of the hodyP Experience is the
only test for the theory and it ap-
pears that physicians do not possess
any facts to give the notion support.
Moreover, it might be supposed that
instinct would have taught animals
to lie down with their heads towards
the north were the theory worthy of
oIedence, for the magnetic influence
must cot On them much the same as
upon human beings.
Nsturslists have reported no pret-
erence of brutes for polar direction
OF the head, and persons who have
never heard of the theory are physi-
cally as prosperous as those who have
observed it most scrCpulously. There
is solid sense in the opinion that i ia
better 10 sleep on the side than on
the back, and it appears that the
functions OF the vital organs can be
better performed when the body rests
upon the right side than upon the
left, but as tor the theory that sleep
ing with the head toward the North
Pole is essential to health, a veneer
able physician OF this city has proper
" said: ''My opinion is tnat it is q
piece of nonsense worthy Of s3me
super;!it;ous old lsdy "
