The Madison Leader says: There
is living within few miles of this
place two colored men who have
gradually changed from the sable
hue of the African race to that Of the
white. The younger negro first cast
off his duskey skin, and when the
transmogrifcation was complete he
became as white as anyone. His
father is now undergoing the same
shedding process. This is an actual
fact; and the quondam colored citi.
zens are seen on our streets nearly
every week.

Chrysanthcmum Culture.

No one can prophesy in what direct
ion the next marked improvement il
the chrysanthemnm may be looked for;
but, Judging from the past, striking
variations from the forms we are now
familiar with may be expected. Those
who studlously note the development Of
new seedlings are quick to marx the
appearance Of slight ~peculiaritles, for
these may he the forerunners Of distinct
types. For some years the appearance
Of hair-like growths from the under
side of an occasional floret has been OBJ
served, but they were never sufficiently
numerous to give any character to the
flower. But last year the remarkable
variety, Mrs. Alpheus Hardy, was
found in a japanese importation, and
in this each floret was thickly set with
these slender growths, giving an entire
ly new character and expression to the
head.
Up to a comparatively recent time
the section with laciniatei forets in.
variably had small heads, which lid
not show distinctly this characteristic :.
Some OF the eve varieties of t!'ii
type have norets three inches long, vi II
four or more b~ifurcations, and spre.a:-
ing at least to th. ee-quarters of an in9ii
in width. In many cases the florti
for two-thirds of their length from t.,e
disc, are tubular, ard then branch A.
ruptly into their particular tootlt4I
forms. And the disposition OF the
florets is quite as interesting as their
shape. In many eases their arrang-
ment is fiat; again they are ~reiexei,
while in others still they are incurvcl
and confused into q gloUular mass nf
slender shreds, which often show the
upper and lower surface in each fore.
But slight notifications of these ,ha,.
acters are needed for the origination of
q new class Of chrysanthemums as dis
tinct as any heretofore produced,
But whatever the forms with which
the chrysanthemum may he endowed
In the future. we may feel sure, from
what we know OF ita inherited tenden-
cies, that the flower will continue TO
show that freedom and fluent grace nt
outline which so strongly commend II
to the taste of the time.

FLIES AND CONSUMPTION.
Gan the Disease be Communicated by
K IA This Insect?

A number Of very Interesting expert.
ments were made by Spillman and
Haushalter recently, with a view to as
certain what, if any, probability there
whs Of consumption being propagated
by the common house fly. In a report
Just made to the Academy of Sciences,
Paris, they embody the results Of their
experiments. Knowing the interest
readers have in every thing that per-
tains to the cause OF this dreaded dis
ease, We briefly state the following III
regard to their observations: They
made repeated examinations of the ex-
element and of the contents of the id
testines of the flies that fed upon the
spit-cups containing the sputa Of con-
suinptiya patients. They invariably
found presented in this excrementitious
matter the bacillus of tuberculosis. the
demonstrated contagious principle OF
consumption. They also found these
bacllli present in the dried excrement
OF the flies as it was scraped from tie
walls and windows of the room occu-
pied by coIsumptives. 1t has been
well demonstrated that these germs
possess wonderful ~tenacity of life, and
they suggest, In their report, how east
ly the air or food and drink may be-
come polluted by the dried remains, or
dried excrement of flies having access
to the sputa Of consumptive patients.
They further suggest in their report
that q suitable. receptive soil, is quite
as necessary as a suitable seed for sue
cessful ~implanta.ion and propagation
Of tuberculosis. The practical deduc-
tion from these experiments Is the great
Importance of promptlEand effectively
disinfecting the sputa and spit-cups Of
these unfortunate patients-either by
the complete destruction of the sputa
by fire, or by a strong solution of corio-
siye sublimate, or of picnic acid. This
report, and the practical deductions
therefrom, only more strongly confirm
US In the opinion that too great care
can not be observed in the exposure of
the well to this disease that consunip-
tives ought not to cast their expector-
ated matter upon the ground and upon
the floor of churches and public halls,
to be dessicated and set alloat in the
air, to be breathed into the lungs, ard
to contaminate our food and drink.
Then. too, greater conveniences should
be provided for such cases by the rail-
roads in the passenger coaches, As IL
Is, almost invariably the sputa is thrown
upon the foor-more or less becomes
dried and ~adherent, and then later set
afloat to produce Its noxious effects.

Morning For New York State.
ment Of Counsel For the Steam.
shin Company,

NEW YORK, Dec. l7.-Charles W,
| Brooke, counsel for the Atlas Steam
| ship Company, made the following au.
thoritative declaration tonight: "The
steamship Hayden Republic will leave
POrt-au-Prince at 8 O'Clock tomorrow
morning, flying the American flag,
manned by an American crew and
bound for the port Of New York,
The crew, which was sent to
Hayti to accomplish this result, was
forwarded with full knowledge,
consent and connivance OF Minister
Preston and General Contreras. 1 say
this, knowing that these gentlemen
have made opposing statements. MOI
has there been any unnecessary CON
cealment in this matter, SO far as my
clients are concerned, and had the
United States naval authorities been
possessed of a full acquaintance with
the maritime laws OF this country,
they would not have found ii
necessary to drag the Galena
out OF the mud. Our maritime laws
required that before any crew shall
be shipped in a foreign vessel from
an American port there shall be made
a contract expressing positively the
conditions Of the shipment. This must
be executed as between the crew and
their employers. in the presence of the
consul OF the Government whose nag is
borne by the vessel in which the men
are to sail. This agreement must be
attested by the cOnsul's approval.
declaring that the terms Of the
contract do not interfere with the
provisions Of any treaty existing be-
tween the Governments concerned-in
this cas- those of Great Britain and
these United States, owing to the flag
which the Alene flies-and is not in
| violation Of the laws Of nations. After
the seizure OF tho Haytien Republic
the Government Of Hayti proceeded
upon its own account to investigate its
rights to maintain lis claim. AS
the result OF these deliberations,
and after carefully considering the
questions referred to, the Hay
tien Government communicated with
the officers of the Atlas Steam
ship Company, although that corpora
tion has no ownership in the seized
vessel. 1t possessed, however, the
confidence OF tile flaytlen Government,
arising from some years of experience
in the conouct Of a great portion Of its
commerce. Such communications
terminated In an arrangement to
voluntarily surrender to the custody of
that friendly steamship company
vessel whose seizure had
created the contention, with
Instructions that the company
should. in thorough accord with the
Tequil ements Of the laws OF nations in
the methods to be adopted for the ac-
complishment OF the purpose. convey
