Henry S IIandaix, LL. D.:
Dear Sir : Your editorial in the Ru
ral uf March 7th, ou "The Effect of
Wood in Reproduction," relates to a
subject of so much importance in its
bearings on the improvement or deteri
oration tf farm stock generally, nod es
pecially oo judical, physiologi jul, men
tal and tuiual .chaoses in tho constitu
tion . cf uiau., tiiut I trust you will
now cjtU'iid the diswusniori. Oue ttnall
voiumo onlj la ever, been published
on Agricultural Physiology iu the Etig
lish language, to luy kuowledc, and
that ha Lever been re primed in this
country. Hence, American farmers
have bad very limited advantages for
studying the influence paternal cell o'on
the ova of the mother aud ou inaseu
line constitutions, whether these uiaacu
line cells are healthy or unhealthy, pure
bred or mongrel.
You truly remark, in substance, that
to inject the blood of one breed of sheep
into the veins of another, can not ponni
bly change the breed or upturn of the
latter. Rut this fact hardly touches
tbe question, of procreativo " blood,"
or the properties of reproductive cell.",
which have a separate and distinct ori
gin, and peculiar functions in the ani
mal economy. I live in a State where
uiauyfurnies raise mules, others horses,
and some both, pretty extensively.
Roth are growing on my farm. Sup
pose I breed a tilly to a jack for her
tirat foal, while young and growing.
Can she carry 'iu her system the vital
force of u male not of her own breed,
lace or even species, eleven mouths,
and nourish its hybrid offspring as part
and parcel of her own body, aud not
Lave the protracted miuglicg of cquiuu
and asinine cells affect her own ornauic
.,-;...V 'U.. r r .. .
jjutitjrt jluo viiai iorce 01 ttio ass is
quite as strong as that of the filly's pro-,
geuitors; and these forces meet and
mingle, not only in the embry o and fee
tus, but in every part of tbe growing
mother. Why then should it surprise
any one that the innooulatiou is Dcruin-
ncnt, aud that tbe mare becomes tbere-
nr a ujfuau iq .. conuiutiou ! 'i'-r
the sake of Teaching th'o truth, with u.11
due care aud cautiou, let us assume that,
Her deterioration is an opou question.
au nuer mo wnun ims lull grown mare
is Drea to gooI horses, wo Cud that she
gives birth, not to good colts, but those
tuat have tiirougli iifo the lare, ujIv
ueauB, nuu ears, auu the small, narrow
leet-ot the iuu!o. Now what is the lw
Citiuaate inferenna f Is it not that the
procreating cells of a vigorous, bruylug
mule have found a nidus in her system,
ana grown there like healthy buds wraft
ed into another tree ! This Mure may
give beiug to fine mules but, ns for
raistug superior cults, her "blood
ruined forever. . t
Gousumptive fathers very naturally
nave consumptive childrcu. If the uu
happy propagation of this great scourge
were limited to offspring, the injury iu
flictod on the human family would be
considerably loss than it really is.
consumptive busbaud may have a wife
who was free from the least taint
pilthisis when married. Cau she remain
so after she i the mother of chilJreu
who inherit tho malady of their father t
Unquestionably not, except by aoeideut
All equally exposed to the virtue of
small-pox, or other contagious disease
jiro not equally attacked but tho en
tire escape of some does not prove the
absence of poisou aud uaoL-er., .
What I have taid of consumption
may bo ainriued ot hereditary insanity
syhilis, scrofula, aud u score of other
deep-seated maladies. . There are many
reasons (to which no allusion cau uow
be made,) why civilization, uhru uu
directed by tho light of physiologiea
science, tends powerfully to brcod
dowuuwds to the constant deteriora
tion of our species Everywhere the
people need more physiological light ;
uud one familiar with this subject from
long study alid extended observation,
might tako pleasure iu writing for their
beuuCt. .
