DR. Lyon, the analyst To the government OF
Bombay, in bis last annusd report has mach
10 say on tine use Of poison in India. This
seems TO be on the increase. for while he had
to DIAL with 500 Of these casea asst year, be
had only 2s2 the year before, and the general
work Of analysis had increased Ave fold since
the first report was ISSUED in 1872. Part Of
this enormous increase is duo to the increase
ia tho criminal use Of poisons, and it is mo-
ticeahe that vegetable poisons, which we're
most generally in use few years ago, are
now giving way TO metallic poisons This is
attributed to ths ease With which such
drugs arsenic, may now be obtained IN
India there being practically no restriction
on their sals. In eghty-four undoubted
CASES Of human poisoning IN the year, arsenic
was used in forty ono, pounded glass IN three,
copper in ok, moreury In hve, and rod Lead
in threa OF the remaining twenty -seven
cases opium was used in fftcen, dntura in
five, alcohol in two, prussic acid In one, and
oleander and other plants for the remainder.
In large number OF cases the poisouer Ia
never discovered; family sits down TO rice
which they have themselves carefully washed; .
ali are taken III and one dies; arssnious oxide
in large quantities is discovered in ths dish
bat the murderer Is never discovered
Many GASES Of a similar character are quot
ed BY DIR. Lyon. Flour Is found IN many
cases 10 be adulterated with an enormous
amount OF arsenious oxide. Poisoning ~
powdered glass is comparatively new in India
There wore only three CASES during She year
In ons, man threw a packet Of pounded
| glass into rice mill; In another, woman
| pounded her colorsd glass bangles and mixed
tho powder with the grain she was grinding
for her husbands food In many cassS tho
poisons arc traced to village sorcerers, who
always appear to have large quantities, their
chief stocks being composed Of the bases Of
! powe fil alkaloids, OF opium, datura, plum
bago root and various mercuriai compounds.
Through these mon poisons are easny pro
cured, lind tie Instances quoted by DR.. Lyon
show that poisoning Is very common crime
In India on account Of these facilities, and
that it ia also one most difficult TO discover, =

There are never brigands actually estab
lished in the plain Of Salonica; their haunts
are the district under Olympus and the noun
tnins near Monnstir and Series but give
them timo to hear Of prize worth taxing in
the lowland and they will come far and
brave much to take it.
Col. synge's farm lay only three hours
from the Nardar, and was surrounded by a
village, but the brigands attacked him and
SGT his house on fire unmolested. Mr.. Soutar
was taken in the peninsula OF Cassandra, the
western prong Of Chalcidice, by the brigands
from Olympus Manuel, Aristides and Nico-
las, who crossed the gulf with their band OF
ruiiians in a caique and carried off their prize
from the middle Of brigade Of soldiers
This viii show that no one, and least Of all
an Englishman after these enormous ran.
SONS paid by the British government, can
ever be safe for long, and he must either
make, as we did, short expeditions Of two OF
three days only from "a town or take his
chance. The old bands are now broken up
but some Of their members are still at large
and the stray cases that occur from time q
time near the mountains show that the dan
ger still exists, and would become pressing
did a suitable prize expose himself
Police and guards generally are not Of
much avail; they would, and indeed could
do little against an organized attack, while
with the solitary highwayman the traveller
himself could probably Cope but they GER
tainly give an official air to the party which
commands respect in the villages and might
mako a weak band Of brigands chary Of at
taclsng. In any case, II the conssl's advic,
is not implicitly followed, the captive trav
eler has no claim on his government for ran
som.
The brigand has, as a rule, no other call
ing, he Is not an impecunious shepherd, wh'
takes to the road, as is often the case in Al
bania but his yillainons trade is almos
hereditary. He plays, as rule, FOR his owl

A century later this country was attacked
by another serious epidemic, the sweating
sickness, which was so called because, in the
words Of an old writer, lit did most stand in
sweating from beginning to ending Il first
made lis appearance in England, and was
generally known on the continent rs the
English sweat II was observed generally
TO spare foreigners ia this country and also
20 be specially fatal to Englishmen when it
appeared abroad; and il was surmised that
tho immoderate Use Of beer, then 50 common
in England, rendered its inhabitants particu.
lariy susceptible to tho disease
Beginning in 1855, in the army Of Rich
mopd, afterward Henry VII, it spread quick
iy ov6r the country with most fatal results.
It seems TO have been . species Of violently
infammatory fever, which suffused tho whole
body with fstid Precipitation, the crisis gen.
orally occurring within twenty-four hours o
the frst seizure. Like most other epidemics,
Is was specially fatal 70 healthy, vigorous
men ia the prime OF life. and hardly pei
cent OF such recovered In London, where Il
ragged with peculiar violence, two lord mayor,
and six aldermen died ia one week
This first oHtburst continued it's ravage
until the end OF the year, its cessation being
nearly coincdent with a violent tempest o.
New Years day, 1856, which was therefor,
supposed to have caused its disappearance
] Further outbreaks Of this epidemic occgEre,
In England in 1900 aud 1877, when again Lon
don suffered severely; and in 1898 and Isl
not only this country, but also France an'
Germany, and, in a les degree, Holland
! Sweden and Poland, were visited by the sam
psstilence. The last appearance Of the sweat
ing sickness in England was IN 1851, whei
the disease was particularly virulent i
Shrewsbury and the valley OF tho Severn. :

The succuLsNr OYSTER.


The Queenstown Md News relieves
itself as follows on the great question Of
the extinction OF the oyster Indications
are not wanting that the supply Of oys-
ters in the Chesapeake and its tributaries
il not as great as formerly. Like the
American bison and the brook trout, the
bivalve seems to be suffering extinction
through the rapacious greed of man. The
tongs formerly employed ia taking ovs-
ters from the beds have been superseded
by the dredging machine, and it is only
a question OF time when the last bivslve
will be taken and the great oyster indus
try of Maryland forever ruined.
That is to say this will be the result
unless more stringent measures are
speedily adopted to protect the oyster
from its foes. The oyster is, without
doubt, the greatest and most profit
able of any in this state. Millions
Of bushels Of this valuable shell-fsh are
annually taken from Maryland waters.
They are eaten everywhere, canned and
shipped to the worlds end, and even the
young and half-grown mollusks are
taken to distant lands TO start new beds
and create new source Of profit else
where.
The laws of the state In measure Pre-.
tect this industry But between the
dredger and the pirate the bars are swept
clean and the deeper waters are fast being
stripped of the bivalve and the evil day
is surely coming when oysters will have
to be planted in the place where they
have aourished apparently since the crea-
tion.
There is immediate and pressing need
Of new legislation upon this subject.
Dredging must be either abolished OF
limited to one or two months Of the year
Penalties for encroaching upon the shall.
low waters need to be doubled, and most
rigidly enforced The police force on this
bay should be increased and
be authorized to arrest OF
sight any man or number Of mer
engaged in unlawful oyster fishing The
police force should also organize secret
service bureau TO enable 1t to ferret out
the pirates more effectually than the,
can now do. This, with the sale o
young and half grown oysters absolutely
prohibited would doubtless suffice L
restock the waters with a larger
better and more abundant sup
ply Of this favorite mollusk.
