THE CAISK OF DEATH. AVe know, almost lor certain, how death takes place in all fatal diseases ; that is. we say, an individual dies, eith er by the brain, heart or lungs. In re ality, however, we are still ignorant how death is brought about, how the machi nery comes to a sudden stand-still, what extinguishes, with the flickering of the final expiration, the vital spark forever. The braia may be extirpated, and ani mal life may be observed to be still go ing on ; the heart may apparently ceaso beating, and yet the existence of the be ing is iMfc finally ended ; respiration i3 to all appearances not filling and eraptv iryr.tbe air vessels any more, bat still more than vegetation keeps up the com plicated machinery, the spark of life still lingers. , What, then, is it that usually causes death y Does it not look very much like the sudden action of a powerful poison, which so thoroughly and at once disin tegrates the great circulating, life-giving and life preserving fluid, the blood, that the nerve centres end the existence and force the organism to cease every motion, like an engine deprived of its team? Experiments that have lately been made, and which we have to thank for the discovery of Jthe Ptomaines, may tend to lead us a step further iu solving the question before us. A. Gaatier hasmadw these ptomaines a special study. It lias been demonstra ted that many organic substances, the fibre iu frhe blood, the urine, and certain compounds of tissues, whendecompos ing give rise to alkaloids called pto maines which are powerful poisons. Thia discovery we owe mainly to Selmi. But Gautir has done more. He tho't that if such alkaloids are formed on the decomposition of organic substances, why may not, in the course of the com mon change of tissues, if the latter Is deviating from its true course, also such ptoraines be called into existence. The result of these investigations ful ly confirmed his theory. A disciple of O. I'oucnet sucoeeded iu obtaining from the normal urine a fixed and easiiy crys tallizable alkaloid, the hydrochloric com pounds of which crystaliize, as well as those with gold chlorid, and platinum chlorid. And this alkaloid has been found to be exceedingly poisonous ; in most minute doses it causes stupor, te tanus, and death within the shortest time imaginable, stopping the heart in systole. This very quality relegates this alkaloid of the urine to the ptotnines, forthetoxie effect of which the heart in systoie is most characteristic. Gau tier was able to isolate from the poison of the poisonous snakes (Trigorroeepha Jas and .Naja) two similar alkaloids. Gautier proved also the intense pois onous action of the human saliva on birds. He evaporated twenty grms. of saliva in the water bath, dried the 0.25 grm., weighing residue, and dissolved it in warm water. This solution inject ed into the bird, under the skin, caused Stupor, dilatation of the pupil, increased frequency of respiration, and, In all ca ses, death. He was able to isolate an alkaloid also out of the human saliva. This alkaloid gave the same color reac tion as the other ptoruines. ., The ptomines are easily oxadjzable, a-nd may be formed during the normal change of tissues, even without the presence of oxygen. What may all these investigations, and their astonishing .results, not ex plain ' If a hypodermic Injection of some vegetable alkaloid accidentally is made into a larger vein, and a fatal result the consequence, under all the symptoms which we used to ascribe to the entrance of air, may not the real cause of death be found, perhaps, in the sudden formation of the poisonons ani- mm aiit;iioTis r iay not many other similar occurrences, which tr)-tTay are clouded in mystery as yet, find a similar Interpretation ? May not, at the tima of the dissolution of the body, a similar proceis turn out forever the flame of life ? Mcilzal and Surgical Reporter. Clippings for the CvRiors.

Bodies of the ancient salt miners have been dis covered among the debris tolerably well preserved. Among the implements were wooden shovels, a basket made of un- tanned raw-hide, a piece of cloth of i coarse wool, and the remains of a torch bound together with flax fibres. The disaster which flooded the mine had ev idently been sudden. " Vaccination " for Chickex CnoLERA. Mr. W. II. Griffith, of ZanesTille, O., says that during the past two years he h3 vaccinated 1,000 fowls In yards badly smitten with chicken cholera, and of this number only 11 died. Of fowls in the same yards not vaccinated all died. The proper pro cedure in such cases is as follows : "Vaccinate a hen. and in eight days her system will be thoroughly inocula ted ; then cut ofT her head and catch all the blood in some vessel, then pour the blood on paper to dry ; a half drop of this blood is suiliicent to vaccinate a fowl, and the blood of one hen will vac cinate your whole flock. Catch the fowl you wish to vaccinal, and with a pin or knife make a little scratch on the thijrh (just enough to draw blood), then moisten a little piece of the pater with the dried blood on and stick it on the chicken's le? where yon scratched it, then let the fowl run, and you need have no fear of chicken cholera." In the conro of his experiments Mr. GriiUth has dried enough blood to vac cinate 10.000 fowln. He offers to send, free of charge, to such as wish to try the cure, enough blood to start with. All he asks is that application be made soon (as the blood loses it3 virtnre by long keeping), and that experimenters report results. iimniGrn auaix.

THE nOMH DOCTOR. Bab sprains, bruises, and lameness with tbe paste made from salt and tbe white of an egg. A handfnl of flour bound on a cut will immediately stop the bleeding. For burns, bind on moistened basing soda. It will Rive prompt and perma nent relief. The lbest treatment for sprains and bruises i3 tbe application of water of such temperature as is most agreeable. Thorouehlv wetting the hair once or twice a week with a weak solution of salt water will keep it from falling out. Hemmorhaffes ot the lung or stomaoh is promptly checked by small doses of salt. The patient should be kept as quiet as possible. For a scald.or burn, apply immediate ly pulverized eharcoal and oil. Lamp oil will do, but linseed is better. The effect is miraculous. To make lemon cake, one cup of su gar, four eggs, three tablespoonfuls of sweet milk, three tablespoon fuls of ba king powder and one cup of flour. For chapped lips mix two tablespoon- fuls of clarified honey, with a few drops of lavender water or any other perfume and anoint the lips frequently. Charcoal forms an unrivaled poultice for wounds and old sores. It is also in valuable for what is calied proud flesh, It is a great disinfectant. Don't sleep in a draught : don't go to bed with cold feet, and don't eat what you do not need just to save it, are the notes of warningsouuded by Dr. Foote's Health Monthly. s A teaspoon ful of charcoal in half a glass of warm water often relieves a sick headache. It absorbs the gasses and relieves the distended stomach, and pressing against the nerves that extend from the stomach to the bead. A good remedy for warts and corns : Drop a little vinegar on the wart and cover it immediately with cooking soda or saleratus ; let it remain ten minutes, Repeat several times a day for three or four days and the wart will be gone. . A Cure for Sciatica. A cure for neuralgia and sciatica and, as I am told, an unfailng one is too valuable not to be recorded. An English officer, who served with distinction in the"war with Napoleon, was once laid up in a small village in France with a severe attack of sciatica. It so happened tbat at that time a tin man was being employed in the house where he lodged, and that this tinman, having been himself a soldier, took an interest in the officer's case, and gave hiia the cure which, in this instance, succeeded immediately and forever, and which I am about to set down. It is at any rate so simple as to be worth a trial. Take a moderate sized potato, rather large thau small, and boil it in one quart of water. Foment the part affected with the water in which the potato has been boiled as hot as it can be borne at night before going to bed ; then crush the potato and put it on the affected part as a poultice. Wear this afl night and In the morning beat the water, which should have ben preserved, over again, and again foment the part with it as hot as it can fce borne. This treat ment must be persevered with for several days. It occasional requires to be con tinned for ah much as two or three weeks, but in the shorter or longer time it has never yet failed .to be successful.
