Scientific Notes.
SIOCKSSKI'L TItA.NSI- I SHIN OF
Blood.- A successful paw of iinnie
(ll ate transfusion of blood hy Dr. AIM
nl, of Naples, is related by Dr. Mac-
Kwen in the lust number ot tlio
Glasgow Mi (Ural Journal. The
transfusion was from the carotid arte
ry of a limit into the veins of a lady
exhausted by hemorrhage. A gum
elastic tube about half a metre in
length was inserted into the artery of
the lamb, and placed in communica
tion wtth the vein opened In the arm
of the patient. At tlie extremity of
a similar tube two tubes of glass were
joined in such a manner as to remain
lixed oil one side of tlie exposed and
incised artery of the lamb, and on the
olher to the denuded vein of the lady,
into which tlie transfused blood flowed.
Dr. Albini renounces henceforth tlie
usual syringe, preferring to use the
natural pump, the animal itself, which
with vigorous contractions, is able to
impel a liberal supply of blood into
the arm of a patient,
Alcoholic Epilepsy. a new res*
son for refraining from alcoholic stim
ulants is furnished by the London
Medical fieeord in tlie statement that
alcoholic epilepsy i« a form of disease
ihat frequently follows hard drinking.
• This is," says Dr. Rlandford, the au
thor of the article, "to be distinguish
ed from the eplleptionn attacks
which occur in acute alcoholism. It
is a defined disease, not incurable,
but frequently ceasing when the
cause is removed, if it is not of very
long duration. Frequently the attacks
are followed Ity stammering, as in
general paralysis. It is distinguished
from ordinary epilepsy by tremors of
the facial and other muscles, pains and
contractions of tlie limbs, and dis
turbance of vision." M. Dagonet,
from whom Dr. Rlandford takes most
of his data, distinguishes one form nf
mental disorder as congestive mania,
simulating but not to Be confounded
witli general paralysis. Tlie symp
toms are maniacal excitement with
exultation of ideas, ami incoherence,
but with little Impairment of muscu
lar power. It need not, like general
paralysis, terminate in death. The
patient may recover, but he frequent
ly sinks into dementia. Another
variety which may be confounded
with general paralysis is that to which
M. Dagonet gives tlie name of xtnpi
ditc, and which is seen iv the course
of an acute attack of alcoholism or af
ter epileptiform seizures.
INTELLECTUAL GROWTH OF CHIL
DREN. —In a paper on the sanitary as
pects of primary education, read re
cently by Dr. H.J. Sullivan before the j
New" York Academy of Medicine, an j
important suggestion occurs in refer- ,
encc to the earliest age at which a pu
pil should be admitted into our school*,
lie contends that seven years is a
mimimum age, not because mental ex
ertion would be injurious to healthy
intellectual growth, but because school
life under its present hygienic sur
ruMalings is very unfavorable to phys-
development, iv other words it
rs to be understood that although a
pupil is capable of reasonable under*
standing and a limited amount of in
tellectual development prior to the
seventh year, such education should
be given* out of school and without
ihe usual restraint. A fact that ren
ders Dr. Sullivan's views valuable is
iliat he was lor several years medical
inspector of our public schools.
A Beautiful Bird.—signor d'Ai
bertis has found a new bird of Para
dise at Atam New Guinea, a place sit
uated at an elevation of about 8500 feet
above the sea level, in the Arfak
mountains. The peculiarity of this
bird consists in tlie formation of the
bill and the soilness ofthe plumage.
The feathers that arise from the base
of the bill arc of a metallic green and
of a reddish copper color; the feathers
of the breast, when laid quite smooth,
are of a violet gray, but when raised,
form a semi-circle round the body, re
flecting a deep golden color. Other
violet gray feathers arise from the
flunks, edged with a metallic violet
lint, but when the plumage is cutirely
expanded, the bin! appears as if it had
formed two seinl circles around itself,
ami is certainly a very handsome bird.
Above the tail and wings the feathers
are yellowish, underneath they arc ot
a. darker shade.
insanity and Memory.—ln the
Mutmtierlingen Irrenfreund, Dr. Wal
ter, a well-known expert in insanity,
' has un article ou loss of memory in
diseases of the bruin, ami gives in il
lustration the case of a man who re
tained his memory for recent events,
though he had completely lost it for
former ones, thus differing in a curious
manner from the loss of memory from
old age, injuries to the head or epilep
tic seizures, in which recent events
are forgotten, while events that hap
pened years before are retained in a
surprising manner. The present case
i* that of a man forty-six years old,
who having lost his money iv busi
ness, and his wife having in conse
quence left him, took to drink. He
had no delusions, but completely fail
ed in his power of remembering; he
did not even know his native place or
members of his own family, though he
gave correct answers to questions re
lating to the*present.
A Remedy for Wounds.—Take a
pan or shovel, with burning coals, ami
sprinkle upon them brown sugar, anil
hold the wounded part over the smoke.
In a few minutes the pain will be al
layed, and recovery proceeds rapidly.
liimv own case a rusty nail had made
a bad* wound in the bottom of my foot.
The pain and nervous irritation were
severe. This was all removed by
holding it over the smoke for fifteen
minutes, and I was able to resume my
reading In comfort. We often recom
mended it to others, with like results.
Last week one of my men had a fin
ger nail torn off by a pair of ice-tongs.
It became very painful, as was to have
been expected. Held in sugar-smoke
for twenty minutes, the pain ceased,
and promises speedy recovery. —[Cor-

Mastodon EXTRAORDINARY, — A
fossil mastodon has, reports the Cin
cinnati Commercial, been discovered
near New Paris, Ohio, on the farm of
Ross Reid. An Irishman, while dig
ging in a meadow some years ago, ex
humed a lower jaw, the well preserv
ed teeth in which showed it to be of
some herbivorous animal) while the
size indicated a mastodon. A farmer
living in the same county, who was
collecting a lot of bones, came in pos
session of these facts a few days ago,
when he called OR Mr. Reid, and gain
ing his permission, proceeded t<» dig
for what remained of the mammoth.
So far he has exhumed considerable
over a quarter of a ton ofthe bones,
and promises to continue his digging
in the hope of getting the entire skel
eton and preserving it for public exhi
bition. From the! acknowledged pro
portions of the animal, the bones se
cured Indicate this one fo have been
probably sixteen feet in height, and
thirty-eight feet in length.
The Use of thk Don Fish.—The
dog fish—a species of shark common
toPuget Sound -the only use of which
litis heretofore been iv manufacturing
nil for the lubrication of saw-mills, is,
according lo the Pug ft Sound Erpre**,
available lor the manufacture of glue.
Millions of dog-fish have been annual
ly taken from tlio waters of the Sound,
bringing thousands of dollars to their
captors. But not until recently, tit tlie
Ca<tlenook fishery establishment on
the bay, has it been demonstrated that
the heads and tins of the dog-fish are
as remunerative ns other parts of Its
body. Excellent glue can be made
from those parts of the fish, and the
Castienook esttibllsniiienl now exports
to France, kegs and barrels filled and
nicely packet] with the heads, fins, and
tails of the Puget Sound dog-fish,
which abroad is considered a great
luuxry,
Beam Diskask.- Dr. Brown Se
quard, contributes to the hist Mi (Ural
Ji'iroid, (London, August 18), a valua
ble paper en some of the curiosities of
brain disease. The doctor has seen
fifteen cases where drawing on the
great toe caused Ihe cessation of what
is called spinal epilepsy. General epi
lepsy may be stopped before the con
sciousness Is complete, by drawing on
parts which are convulsed. In a like
manner in lesions of the brain, emo
tion may have a similar effect, and a
paralysis due to organic lesion may
disappear at once under emotion, or an
act ot will—the paralysis being then
cured, though the cause remains. It is
desired to find something like this in
applying treatment. The only thing
is au irritation acting on tlie skin.
Doing this, Dr. Brown Sequard has
had opportunity of recalling a patient
to life. After erysipelas of the face,
there were palsy and insensibility, and
probably an abscess of the brain. The
patient was cured and remained well
long. There was insensibility, [coma)
two or three times, from which he was
roused by the actual cautery applied to
the head and between the shoulders,
the iron having been heated to a
white heat and passed lightly over the
skin.
PHOSPKCTUS
OF
THE LOS ANGELES HERALD.
The first of October, TBSLOS Anuh.ks HKS"
ald, a daily and weekly newspaper, will
make lis appearance. The Dally will be a
neat and tastily printed seven-colnmu news
paper, newsy lather than literary in charac

matter suited tolhe Home Circle.
The Hkuai.o will he an independent Demo
cratic journal and Its eltbrt* directed to sweep
ing from power and place those now misman
aging the a tin Irs ol Ihe Nut ion. For the accom
plishment of this end, it will hail wit h satisfac
tion the co-operation of I hi' mem hers of all Par.
ties, believing that the prosperity, perhaps
safety, ofthe Nation depend* upon the success
of a movement oft his character, it ii-reform

The IIKRAI.n Will advocate Slate Bights and

Herewith I certify that Miss Josephine Lind
ley has been a student in my department of
the I7nlver*lty for five consecutive terms, viz:
from September, IK7O, to April ;id, IS7'.'. During
l his time she studied the French, the Spanish
ami the German languages, obtaining always
the highest marks for proficiency and attend
ance, her average credit mark lor live terms
being !'7 per cent.
On entering the University, Miss Lindley
possessed already such knowledge of the
French nnd Spnnlsh idioms as to lie able to
speak tbem with ease, fluency, correctness,
and il pure pronunciation.
She may now be considered thoroughly fa
miliar witli the theory and philosophy, as well
as with the application of these two tongues;
and she may safely be recommended us a can
didate of great promise, for teaching the
French nnd Spanish languages.
