TRICHINOSIS REPCLT OP THE FRENCH INVESTIGA
TION AH TO Tilt; EXISTENCE AND PROPAGATION
OP TUB FORK WORM.
from Gulignani's Metienger, April 5.
Professor Delpech, of the Paris Faculty of
Medicine, ai d Protessor Reynal, ot the lmpe
xial Veterinary School at Allort, who were
charged with a mission to study tho above
named disease in tier many, both in human
beings and mammals, have presented to the
MiniBtei ol Agriculture, Commerce, and Public
Works a report of the results ot their investiga
tions at Hull (Belgium), Hanover, Magdeburg,
Berlin, Halle, Dresdeu, Leipsic, and Mayence.
To render their tnvesticatious more complete,
they solicited and obtained the co-operation of
the most eminent German physicians who had
made the disease in question their especial
study. The chief practical tacts ascertained are
as lollows: The epidemic trichinosis lately
prevalent in Germany has now almost entirely
disappeared. The mortality was everywhere
Blight, except at Hedersleben. At Zwickau,
fcelteudorf, and Hoinmerteld there were eighty
eight patients, Dot one of whom died. In every
case the disease was caused by eating imper
ieclly cooked poik containing trichiues, a case
of rather frequent occurrence in Germany.
In Hanover, in twenty-one mouths, out of
twenty-live thousand pigs eleven were found full
tt trichiues, sixteen out of fourteen thousand in
Brunswick, and lour out of seven hundred in
Blakenbuig. The animals while living show no
signs of their presence, nor can they be de
tected in the meat with an ordinary magnifying
glass, but a powerful microscope renders tlietn
distinctly visible. The utility of a microscopic
inspection of pigs' flesh by competent observers
is so evident that many of the German Govern
ments have rendered it obligatory, aud MM.
Delpech and Reynal would not hesitate to re
commend it in any country contaminated with
trichinosis, but they think it unnecessary in
France, where no case of the disease has yet
been noticed. In Germany the hospitals receive
many patients eullering from, this affection.
During last year there were thirteen at Magde
burg, of whom only one died. Post mortem ex
aminations have also shown, among persous
who died lrom other diseases, numerous cases
ot old trichinosis cured by the eucystment of
the parasites. The proportion of these at Leipsic
has been about six per hundred. In places
where the complaint prevails the rats which
intcst slaughter houses fre found to have it, as
proved by i.eiseiing at Dresden, Adam at Augs
burg, and Holl at Vienna.
Bince their return MM. Delpech and Reynal
have examined many ot these animals, as well
its pigs, without finding a trace of trichines.
Consequently there is no reason in France tor
any person to retrain from eating hog's flesh,
especially when so thoroughly cooked as is
usual among the French. In Germany, on the
contrary, many of the peasantry eat it almost
raw or only smoked. The most timid may
t-ately eat the heart, kidneys, brain, and fat of
pigs, as those rarts never contain trichines.
AIM. Delpech and Rnynal assert, as an undoubted
fact, that a temperature of 75 degrees C. (1G7
Fan.) is suflicient to kill trichines. Meat
thoroughly salted is also perfectly sale. Smoke
dried sausaces, which have been kept a long
time, are considered free from danger, but the
wisebt plan is to give them a good boiling. The
authors of the report attribute the spread of the
disease among pigs to the fact that they are
foul Iceders, and will eat any offal, such as the
dead bodies ot rats and other animals, which
are now known to be liable to trichinosis.
Great care ought, therefore, to be taken to keep
etich things out of their reach. MM. Delpech
and Reynal likewise advise all experimenters
never to throw away tnchinlzed flesh, but to
burn it as soon as their examination is com
pleted, for a fragment of it carelessly exposed
might be eaten by a rat, the rat devouted by
a pig, and this last become the cause of fatal
accidents. They recommend farmers to be
very cautious in feeding their pigs; to avoid
giving them otral flesh without tire t boiling it;
to destroy rats end other small carnivorous ani
mals; and never to leave human or other excre
ments in places where pigs can go.
ADULTERATION OF FOOD EXPOSED BY TBI MICRO
SCOP .
A French writer publishes an article entitled
Lea MerveiUea du Monde JnvitiUe, in which he
shows how people may discover frauds practised
upon them by dishonest dealers, simply by a
general acquaintance with the microscope
Thus, while eenuine coffee ground to powder
displays under that instrument a quantity of
fiohgonal cells, any adulteration of the Arabian
icr'ry by means of torrefied sawdust wid bcome
evident because of the fibrous texture of the
latter. Pure milk, seen through a microscope
between two glasses lamina?, appears formed of
spherical globules more or less adherent to each
other by considerable intervals. But if we ex
amiue the liquid dishonestly sold for milk we
at once perceive the fibres of some ingredient
which have resisted all manipulation. Let us
take chocolate, which Is manufactured with
cocoa. Through the microscope we see that it
contains fragments ol cellular tistues with bits of
IM !J)A1LT -EVENING TELEGIiArLT. PHlLADELPmA, TUESDAY,
the miter Bkin of reticulated shape, then remnants
ot the perm and grains ot lecula. Adulterated
chocolate contains a quantity of potato-ferula,
the shape ot which Is radiealjy different lrom
that ot the genuine article. The leaf of the
tea plant is extremely characteristic when seen
through the microscope; snd adulterated tea
rray be easily detected, for It will be four. d to
contain not only grains of sand, but tecuU de
rived nom beans or other pulse; fragments of
rice, cellules of turmeric, bit of lud go, etc.
The.upc of the microscope requires, however,
seme preliniuiery study to make it applicable
to the i urpote the author has hi view; thus it
would be necessary to take several kinds of
flour, exnnjine them throiich the instrument.
and jot down the principal shapes we see. The
flour tf rye, tor instance, contains grains of
fecula, v h ch, being loo large to pass entire be
tween the millstones, are crushed and burst, so
that under the microscope we see what has the
appearance of a number of small bugs, each
having a riarkWb star at the top. from being
torn asunder. Wheat flour does not present
tli is appearance.
UTILIZATION OF TUE MARSHES OF FRANCE.
A Firnch savnnt has proposed to the Snclety
of Acchimati.auon, of Paris, a plan oi utiliz
ing the marhes ot France, which at present
produce noth ng but fever and ague. He pro
poses sowing tin m with Canada rice, and turn
ing down a lot of beavers; both the plant and
the auimal can live In any climate; both would
be equylly useful, and One would support the
other. At prefent larpe sums arc annually scut
from Fiance to America tn pureliaso beaver
skinp, which might thus become articles ol home
production.
WFIAT IS OXYUEN ?
Frofcssor Schoenbeln writes, by invitation,
Lis views on the subject to the Scientitic Asso
ciation of France on a lengthy communication,
from which we extract the lollowiugsiati'incuts:
You know, Kt.s the Prol ssor, that lor the
last thlity years I hnvc bien almost exclusively
and uninterruptedly engaged In Investigating
oxygen, anu tbut in this long series ot researches
I have collected, with respect to that elementary
body, a considerable number of new facts, from
which I think I can deduce the following con
clusions: 1. Oxygen can exist in three dillcrent
ailotroplc states. 2. Two ot these slates are
active and opposed to each other; I distin
guish thr m by the namps of ozone and autazone.
3. Equal quantities ot ozone aud au t ozone neu
tralize each other in order to form inactive or
neutral oxygen. 4. Neutral oxygen may be de
composed or transformed into equal parts of
ozone and antozene. But I must add that the
experimental demonstration of the correctness
ol these propositions is not so simple as, for ex
ample, that of the composition or decomposi
tion ot water, and in order well to understand
their lop.ii 8l concatenation it is absolutely ne
cessary to know a good muny facts relating to
them. Ozone and ant ozone are always mingled
with a certain quantity of neutral oxyeen, a
consequence intimately connected with the
eencrHtion of the two active modifications of
OAjgen.
what's tub use of the moon ?
M. Geoffroy, of Paris, asks, in an article in the
Monitrur, what nuiy be the utility of the moon
with regard to our planet, and whether it 1s only
there lor the purpose of raising the waters of
the ocean twice a day. To this he replies that,
besides the great planets that are carried along
a regular path round the sun, there exists
an unlimited number of bodies of different
sizes, moving through spnee in every direction,
as the almost daily discovery ot a vast number
of asteroids proves. In his opinion, the moon
was once one of those erratic bodies, and hap
pening one day to get within the sphere of
attraction ol our planet was forced to become
our satellite, instr-ad of continuing its own
course Hence the moon is but an accident.
The earth had done without It beiore. and might
do w ithotit it again. Venus is about the size of
the earth, and goes regularly round the sun,
although it has no satellite. Why should the
earth need one? He continues to say that our
moon is no of use to us, because we mieht per
fectly well do without oceanic and atmospheric
tides, and the best eulogium he can pass on our
satellite being that it is utterly useless, he goes
further, and declares that we owe it to the
merest chance, it haviug been picked up, as it
were, on the way; and as 6tich a thins mieht
happen again, the author sees no impossibility
whatever in our petting some day another, and
perhaps more moons still added to our stock.
M. Gcoflroy is one of those who deny that the
moon is inhabited. First, because the exces
sive cold there most prevent the possibility of
any animal lite, and second, because the moon
has no atmosphere.
the hardening of iron.
A French experimentalist found, a few years
since, that by heating iron tolerably free from
carbon with a small quantity of boron, to a very
high temperature, he obtained a product which
could not be forged, but which pos-essel extra
ordinary hardness. He has now found that an
equally hard metal may be obtained by adding
to ordinary cast-iron in fusion, phosphate of
iron and peroxide of manganese; be does not
mention m w hat proportions. Tho product can
not be forged, but it costs easily, and is, there
lore, applicable to the construction of such
machines, or parts of machines as require in
their material exeme hardness rather than
tenacity. The metal is, moreover, singularly
sonorous, and the discoverer proposes it as a
material for bells. He finds that a ttill harder
metal is producible by the addition ot tungstcin
aeain he omits to say in what amount to
ordinary cost-iron. He states that tungstein
iron surpasses everything previously known as
a u aterial for tools for cutting rocks, and that
crystals of it will cut glass as readily as the
diamond.
A CDrNESE PROTECTION AOAINt V "SniPWORMS."
Lieutenant Marot, of the French navy, states
from expeiience that the Chinese preserve their
ships adn irably lrom the ravages ot the ship
worm Terredo A'avalis) by means of two
kinds ot rosin which are obtained from native
trees.. One of them Is called by the Annamites
Caydau, which means oil tree. It often grows
to a height of from two hundred to two hundred
and forty feet. A single tree will yield from two
to three litres of oil by incision. The natives
cut large boats for as many as thirty men out of
this trunk, and these boats are so durable as to
descend by inheritance from father to son for
many generations. The other tree is ot the same
kind, out not so nood. Vessels having their
keels coated with a mixture of the reaiuous sub
stance obtained lrom these two trees will resist
the attacks of the sbipworin for many years,
and all CLinive and Anuamite barques and Junks
are so preserved.
THE RAILROAD BETWEEN CONSTANTINOPLE AND
8MVRNA.
A telegram from Smyrna reports that the
crossing of the Ephesus pass on the Aldin Rail
way, by the tcmpoiary line over the mountain
(pending the completion of the tunnel), was
successlully effected by a locomotive, which
passed into the Aidin plain, and proceeded be
yond Azizieh. As the main way nad been for
some weeks couip ete to the town ot Aidin,
through communication with Smyrna is thus
practically accomplished. The tunnel is pro
gressing rapidly, aud will be open in a couple of
months.
A NEW ANESTHETIC. '
Dr. Simpson, ot Kdinburgh, who first employed
chloroform in cases of surgery, calls attention
to a new substance, the bichloride of carbon.
This compound was discovered by Rcgnault, In
183'J. Dr. Simpson regards it ai a chloroform in
w hich the hydrogen is replaced by chlorine C2
IIC1 5 .is chloroiormj and C2 CI CI 3 is the new
compound. ,
The bichloride of carbon is prepared by pass
ing the vapor ot bisulphide of carbon and
chlorine eas tbrotieh a heuted porcelain tube.
The blchlorine of carbon is a transparent color
less liquid, possessing the ethereal odor of chlo
form. Its specific gravity is l-ft6 (chloroform
149.) Dr. Sim oson proposes the name chloro
carbon. It remains to be seen whether in tfcis
new compound we have a substitute for chloro
form, aud whether its solvent properties and
other relutlons are thes imo as those of the
older aud better known substance.
Purchase ot KemFchntka by Americans.
A St. Petersburg correspondent of March 13
has Ihe following relative to aerand commercial
scheme on the part ot capitalists of the United
States: - j
