The End of Consumption.

BERLIN, November 9.-Professor
Bergman inoculatcd fifteen con
sumptiye patients Thursday by Pro
lessor Koch's process, and on the
following day exhibited one of the
patients before n number of physi-
clans, in order to show the change
that had resulted within twenty-four
hours.
The ,B0ersen- Courier. says it has
authority for the statement that Pro
fcssor Koch's remedy has proved n
success. The famous German sur
gcon, it says, cured within five days
a case of lupas OF nccrotic tubercular
destruction of tho tissues of the
face.
The National Zeitung says that
Professor KOCH, although he has
performed a rumbcr of cures, does
not yet consider the time come for a
publication of his researches. AL
though the remedy has been applied
to patients in the Charity hospital,
and in some private cases, its compo-
sition remains a profound secret.

Porter's Little sehoine.
SA PLAN TO PERFETUATE REpUBLIoAS
, SoNTEoL WHios Ell @ss
THR OUCH.

WAsHINGToN, November 9.--Su.
perintendent of the Census Porter,
seems to have decided, as long ago
as whom Quay was trying to post
pone action on The force bill in the
Senate, ttihaS tile population Of the
United St9tes would not exceed
G3, 0O0,O 900.
IL has Just leaked out that whom
the anti-forcc bill Republican Sena-
tors were diokering with the Demo-
Gratis to shelye the force bill and
limit debate on tho tariff bill, Porter
called upon Quay and a few other
Republican Senators and Represent
tatives and informed them that if
the population of the country should
turn out to be not more than sixty
three millions it would be the easiest
thing in tho world to prepare a reap
p~ortionment scheme which would ID
sure Republican control of thogoyerlfA.
ment FOR an indefinite numb : CO
years. The Census Superintendent
had figured the thing downton fine
point, and was prepared to give the
basis of representation upon which
tho reaprortionmont should be made
to accomplish it's purpose, provided
that the census returns did not 90
above the sixty-threc millions.
Porter urged the Immediate pre-
paration of the bill, and earnestly
advised that it be taken up immcdi-
atcly after the passage of the tariff
bill and put through before the
adjournment of the session. 1t hap
pencd, however, that one of the lead
ing Democratic Senators got a hint
Of what Porter was at, and the
result was tho refusal of. the Demo-
Gratis to make the force and tariff
bill bargain unless the Republicans
pledged themselves to try no further
Legislation after finishing tho tariff
bill, and Portcr's little scheme had to
be postponed.
This was long before the census
returns had been counted in Portor's
bureau. When the figures did come
out, ten days ago, they gave the
United States a population of g.
490,540.
