sense of constant care, accompanied by
such mental distress as to unfit one tc
properly attend to his daily duties.

an article on the subject by Prof, Aus

OF that portion OF organic matter not

to persons drinking the liquid. 1t will
be seen that, in many localities OF this
country the public health is seriously
and greatly endangered by the use OF
waters which are known to contain 4
very large percentage OF organic mat
ter, nay, more, it is well known that in
these communities those diseases which
arc much dependent OIL this kind OF
poison are very prevalent, and that the
death-rate is excessive"
The following analysis OF Ohio river
water made in July OF this year by Mr..
G. Q. Rawling, n chemist OF this city, is
alarming; it exhibits the number OF
grains oil sewage in thousand gallons
OF water: In the form OF frec-ammonia,
six grains and ninc-tenths OF grain in
1000 gallons OF water; OF albuminoid-
ammonia. thirteen grains and nine
tenths OF grain in 1000 gallons OF
water, containing, it will be observed,
more than thirteen times the amount
OF organic pollution that Prof. Austin
fixes as the limit that forebodes danger.
II would seem highly proper, if these
statements are correct, and they are fur
nished by prominent chemists, and are
vouched for byreliable authorities upon
the subject, that some protest should be
made against the further expenditure OF
