the sickness at long branch.
Dr. Sayre, the resident physician,'and Dr.
Murphy, the Health Commissioner, who w'ero
requested by the Mayor of New York to visit,
LoDg Branch and examine into the character
of the disease there prevailing, have made a
report on the subject. These gentlemen state
that they at Long Branch on the after
noon of the 22a instant, and devoted two nights
and a day to the examination of the disease.
There have been ninety cases and thirty-seven
deaths at Long Branch and its vicinity since
the breaking out of the disease.
The disease commences with a violent chill,
and the first stage lasts about sixteen hours.
During this many die. The second period is
from two to three days, after which convales
cence may take place. The most alarming
symptoms are congestion of the-head and a
nervous paralysis, which, until removed, ren
der the administration 6f remedies ineffective.
The technical name of the disease is cerebro
spinal meningitis, and the membranes of the
brain and spinal marrow are the seat of inflam
mation.
It is neither contagious nor infections, nor
are there any atmospheric conditions which
were obvious to cause its existence. There
are no swamps or stagnant water in the vicinity
from which the presence of malaria might be
infused; on the contrary, the situation is on
aandv soil, and open to the pure air of the
ocean.
The diet of many who have been seized has
been had. Flour made from spoiled grain has
been employed as an article of domestic con
sumption, and a substitute for coffee made to
a considerable extent from smutted rye has
been used. It is the custom of many families
to burn kerosene lamps all night, the wick
being put down. This vitiates the air, and
fills the sleeping apartments with an impure
gas. Every case of the disease (and the
physicians visited all now sick) could be traced
to distinct causes.—the depression of the
system by improper food, by breathing foal
air, or by fear and moral influences of a di
spiriting character. Exposure to cold or fatigue
then would bring on the attack.
GYMNASTICS AND CALISTHENICS.
The arrangements and facilities of the “ In
stitute” of Professors Hillebrand and Lewis,
for teaching and practising these important
arts, are most complete. We paid a recent
visit to their establishment, and upon first
ascending the stairs we were shown into one
of the large saloons which is generally used by
Ladies. It is furnished with every conceivable
form of gymnastic apparatus. A class of
children were going through light exercises with
wooden dumb-bells and rings. They changed
from this exercise to the use of the apparatus,
in whicWbe took great delight and displayed
much-agility. They went through a vajjety of
performances suited to their abilities. ~lt was
easy to see by the grace and skill they displayed
__ which of them had recently commenced and
which were adepts in the art. The Professors
are of opinion that light gymnastics, while
excellent for weakly persons, are insufficient
for the powers of a healthy man. They adopt
a style of gymnastics between the two,neither
very light nor very heavy. But they wish it
distinctly understood that they use the light
gymnastics (or calisthenics) as one branch of
their exercises. In regard to the benefits de
rived from the exercise of the gymnasium,
they are too numerous and too weE understood
to need special comment.
Gymnastics not only impart fullness and
strength to the muscles but they increase the
flexibility of the frame and the dexterity of all
its movements, and thus contribute to the re
moval of various deformities and chronic
diseases that are beyond the reach of medicine.
Exercise tends to eradicate disease. The early
stages of consumption, debility, indigestion,
scrofula, hysterics, abdominal diseases can be
benefited or entirely cured by gymnastics.
Lord Bacon declared that gymnastics were a
universal panacea. The institute of Messrs.
Hillebrand'& Lewis has a number of large
Baloons for the different sexes and classes of
different ages, the ladies department being en
tirely separate. . Also drawing, dressing rooms,
&c.
