The Cholera Germ Again.

The reported discovery OF the plague
bacil.us by Profs. Kitssito aud Aoyama
of Toxic university. who went to Hong
Kong to study the epidemic. has at
tracted so much popular interest that il
may be well TO note some particulars
which have just reached this country.
The fatal microbe is described as hav.
ing the form of a very slender, straight
iilament Of short length. 1t appears in
the blood on and after the second day
of the outbreak of the disease and may
possibly belt ought. at all events. to
be-identical with the plague bacillus
imperfectly described during the Astra-
chan epidemic a few years ago.
Animals inoculated with it invariably
show choleraic symptoms or die within
two days. As there is no alternative
but that either the patient or the bacilli
must be killed. the Japanese physicians
are investigating the question OF how
best 10 scotch the viruleace of the
plague germ, and are in hopes that be-
fore long their researches will be
crowned with success.
Meantime, the plague being epidemic
in Yunnan, aud having established sev-
eral fresh centers, they do not believe
that the insanitary habits of the Chinese
will ever admit of its being extermin-
ated from an empire which it has
scourged again and again. -LondOn
