The Xew Discovery of the Cause of Consumption.
The cable dispatch of a few clays ago
which announced the communication by
Prof. Tyndall of the wonderful discovery
of the cause of consumption by Dr. Koch
of Berlin, as reported by him to the Imperial
Council of Health of Berlin March
24th, though but a few lines in length, announced
the most remarkable event which
has occurred in our decade. Medical men
have long suspected that consumption was
a communicable, that is in a sense, a contagious
disease, but the absolute proof of
this view has only been furnished by the
discovery of the acti a' cause of tie dise; s
by Dr. Koch, of Berlin.
This cause of tuberclosis turns out to be
a parasite, a minute colorless living particle,
which its discoverer names the bacillus
tuberculosis. It will be a source of
wonder to many of our readers why, with
all the research which has been expended
upon this disease for years a disease that
kills from one to two-sevenths of mankind
the cause of it was not discovered long
ago. The reasons of it is simply this : The
parasites, germs, or, techically speaking,
the bacilli, of the disease are colorless, and
hence could not be distinguished from the
the media in which they lived. Dr. Koch
has found out the means of tinting the
. bacilli so as to make them visible, and has
thus put within the reach ot every
the means of detecting them in any
organ or secretion of the body. The coloring
substances he used were methelene
blue and vesuvin. The mythlene preparation
colors the whole preparation blue,
and the vesuvin discharges the blue from
every element of the preparation, impart-to
tliom a brown tint, except the bacilli,
which still retain the blue color. Of all
the germs of disease there are but two
which undergo tin's peculiar reaction,
namely, those of leprosy and those of
tuberculosis.
All other germs lose their blue color
under the action of vesuvin. The bacilli
of tuberculosis thus lendered visible are
found to be small rod-like bodies with a
length about one-third the diameter of
the blood corpuscles, which are
of inch, and in breadth about one-sixth of
their length. They are found in greatest
abundance in fesh tuberculous masses, in
the spectrum of the disease, in the walls
of the cavities formed by it in the lungs,
and in all the depots ol tuberculosis in the
bod The same bodies are found in the
bodies of caTtle in the so called ''pearl disease,"
which has long been suspected to
be the same disease as the tuberculosis of
man.
Dr. Koch was not content with simply
discovering these bodies. He also devised
or worked out a preparation from gelatinized
ox-blood in which he sowed the bacilli
and watched them grow. He found in
this observation that they thrived best at
a temperature between So and 10S degrees
Fahrenheit. The distinguished observer
next subjected his new discovery to the
crucial test, to wit: inoculation of the lower
animals. He found that he could thus
induce tuberculosis in any animal even
in those not naturally predisposed to it, or
in those which naturally enjoy immunity
against it, like dogs and rats. Tims he
completed the chain of experimentation,
and having verified his results by three
months of patient work, he published it to
the world.
The London Lancet of April 22d reports
that even in the short time that has already
elapsed since the annunciation of
this cliscovery, the results have been confirmed
by Baumgartner, another almost
oqually distinguished investigator in the
field of phthologv, and at the present time
microscopists all over the world are busy
in the study of the bacilli ot tuberculosis.
The report of this discovery is received
with a sensation in medical circles, which
is as much greater than that manifested
over the trichina spiralis as tuberculosis is
graver than trinchinosis, as it not only
discloses the cause of this dread disease
but reveals a way in which the causes of
other most acurately infectious disease
may be found out. And though it does
not show us as yet, at least, how the disease
may be cured, it will show us how it
may be prevented, as was the case in
trichinosis. At any rate, the first step has
been taken and a giant stride it is on
the road to the mastery of a disease which
kills more people than'all the plagues and
all the wars and all the famines put together.
It is no wonder, therefore, that medical
men look upon this discovery by Koch
as the greatest revelation that has been
made in the history of the discovery of the
circulation of the blood by Harvey, over
two hundred years aiO.
RELEASED
After Years of Convict LifeA
Prisoner Made Famous by Charles Dickens
Breathes the Fresh Air Once Marc.
Philadelphia, May 10. Charles
walked out of the eastern penitentiary
this morning at the close of his
eighth term in Cherry Hill. He was first
entered Dn May 13,1840, just forty-two
years ago, to five years' confinement for
larce.icy, and it was while s out this
sentence- that ho was immortalized by
Charles Dickens. When the c'htinguished
writer arrived in Philadelphia and visited
the eastern penitentiary and gave him a
place in American Xotes, Dickens saw the
convict as he has been throughout life, an
unmitigated hypocrite and rascal of forlorn
appearance, and always ready to pour
into the ears of an unsophisticated listener
a frightful tale of woe and distress.
was naturally a thief. He had an
excellent trade, that of paper staining, in
which he could have earned a fine salary,
for good men in that line were scarce, and
Langheimer was an excellent stainer, but
it was impossible for him to resist the
temptation to steal.
At the time of his release Langheimer
was in his seventy-ninth year. When he
first entered the eastern penitentiary, forty-two
years ago, he was number 1,274.
Upon being consigned to the same institution
to 1S79 he was labelled 10,014.
During the long period between the time
Langheimer first entered the prison in
1S40 until he left to-day, an army of S,740
convicts have passed out of the institution.
So far as a resident at Cherry Hill is concerned,
he has outlived them all. His
eight terms in the eastern penitentiary aggregate
in time thus spent upwards of
twenty-eight years.
In addition to his local career as a convict
he has served terms in Sing Sing, the
Maryland penitentiary and other prisons.
It is no exaggeration to say that
has spent fifty years of his life
within prison walls. When he left to-day
he had $15 of his own money, besides the
$5 allowed each liberated convict by the
state. As he departed one of the prison
officials remarked: "I'll bet he will be
back here before two monthsare gone. He
can't help stealing. .Mark what I say, he
will soon be back."
A Letter From Frank James.
Chicago, May 4. A sister of the James
brothers lives in Georgia. The following
letter, purporting to come from Frank
James, in that state, was received at the
Times to-day :
Near Calhoun, Ga., April 22, 1SS2.
I see you have a communication denying
that it was mv brother killed by Bob
Ford. It was certainly Jesse that was
killed, or rather murdered. I also see in
the Atlanta Constitution a pretcnled letter
from me, dated Memphis, Tenn., -which
is a forgery. I have been here for the
last month and will leave here before you
receive this, and have no threats to make,
as this is not characteristic of our family.
But we never forget our friends or forgive
our enemies. Please publish this, and return
my heartfelt thanks to all those who
were so kind to my mother and brother's
family in their late" distress. Yours truly,
Frank James.
Ralph Waldo Emerson, in his last hours
of delirium, had an idea that he was far
