THE CHICAGO DAILY "TRIBUNE: SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 1872. EUGENIE GRANDET; oz, Scenes of Provineial Life. Translated from the French of DeBalzac for The Chin tago Tribune, VL = We must let :he first shower pass over,” said Grandat, retumidg to the sitting room, where Enugenie and her mother had rapidly resumed their places, ard, having wiped their, eyes, warked with trerbling hands. * But this yonng manis good for mothing; ho thinks more of _the desd than of money."” ; Eugenio shuddered as she heard her fatkier expressing himself thus on the holiest of sor- rows. From that moment, sho began to judge ber father. Thongh smothbred, the sobs of Charlesresounded in this sonorous House, and bis deep moaning, which scemed to comefrom ander groung, cessed but toward evening, after having gredually grown fainter. “Poo: young man! ” smd Medame Grandet. Fatal exclamation! Father Grandet looked at his wife, Eugenie, and the sugar-dish ; heremem- bered the extraordinary breekfast preparcd for the unhappy relative, and took a position in the middle of the sitting-room. . “Seohers! I hope,” said he, with his ordi-_ nary composure, ¢ that you are not goingt6 con- tinue your extravagances, Madame Grandet. I o not give you 7ay money toflll this young ‘eliow with sugar.” | My mother has nothing to do with it,” said Zngenie. “I—" i “Is it because you are of =ge,” replied Grandet, ““that you want tocrossme? Think, Engenie—" My father, your brother’s son, when in your house, shonld not lack—" 5 “Ta! ta! ta! ta!” said tHe cooper, on four chromatic tones. My brother's son this, and my nephew that. Charles is nothing to us; ho ‘hasnot a farthing ; his father has failed; and, when this dandy has wept his fill he will quit here. Tdonot want him to revolutionize my house.” ) “ What does it mean to fail, my father 2" said Eugenie._ 3 “‘To fail,” replied ihe father, ‘is to commit ‘the most dishonorable action of all those which can dTthh;tunor :nbxn." < ‘ust be a very great sin,” said Madame Grandet, * and our broter will Do damned - “‘Now here comes your cant,” said he to his wife, ehrogging his shoulders. “A’ failure, Eugenie, is & kind of robbery which_the law un- fortunately takes under its “protection. People : bave given their wares to William Grandet, on the strength of his repatation for honar and honesty; then he took everything, and left them only eyes to weep with. The highway-robber is preferable to the banlkrupt ; he attacks yon, and Jou can defend yourself; he risks his hoad, but the other —— in a word, Charles is dishonored.” These words rungin the heart of the poor girl, and bore upon it with all their weight. As tted 28 & flower born in the depths of a forest, she Imew meither the maxims of the 'world, nor its fallacious arguments mor its sophisms; sho therofors accepted the brutal explanation of a failure which her father designedly gaye her, without acquainting Rer with the distinction between an involuntary 2nd 2 premeditated one. ““Well, father, were you unable to prevent this misfortune " “My brother did not consult me. Besides, he _owes four millions.” “But what is a million, father?” asked she, with the simplicity of & who believes it can quietly find what it wants. #Two milligns ?” gaid Grandet; “they are two pretty trifles of his toilet, his scisgors, his razors ‘mounted with gold.+ This intimation of a luxury seen ihmuih grief made Charles still moro in- teresting, by contrast perhaps. Never hird so serious an oceurrence, 50 dramatics sight, struck the imagination of these two creatures, constant- Iy buried in quiet and loneliness, “Mamme,” said Eugenio, “wo will wear mourzing for my uncle . “ Your father will decidoas to that,” replied Madam Grandet. They relapsed into silence. Eugenie took her' stitches with a regularity which would dis- closed to an observer the fretful themes of her meditation. The first desire of this dear crea- ture was to participate in her cousin's mourning. About 4 o'clock, a sudden blow of the knocker sounded to Madame Grandet's heart. “‘What is the matter with your father?” said eheto her daughter. The vine-dresser entered, radiant, After baving taken off his gloves, Ko rubbed his hands in a way which would have taken off the skin if the epidermis had not been tanned like Russian leather, saving the smell of larch-wood and of incenso. He walked up and down ; hie looked at the clock. Flnalfiy his secret escaped from him. “My wife,” said he, 1 havo caught them all. Our Wine 18 gold!

A panic-terror would have made wines full 50 per cent. #Youhavea thousand casks this year, father #" £aid Eugonie. + 4 Yes, little danghter.” 3 ; This was the superlative expression of joy with the old cooper. . .%“That makes two hundred thousand twenty- sou pieces.” ¢ Ves, Mademoiselle Grandet.” “ell, father, you can casily hnlg Charles.” Tho astonishment, the anger, the stupefac- tion of Belshazzar when he saw the Aene Tekel Upharsin, cannot bo compared with the cold wrath of Grandet, who, thinking no more of hig neplior, discovered him lodged in the heart and calculations of his daughter. “Look here! Since this dandy put his foot in my house everthing has gone wrong. You talk of buying sweetmeats, and of having weddings and festivals. I want none of theso things. Perhaps I know, at my age, how I ought to act. Besides, T will take no instruc- tion from my deughter or any one else. I will do for my nephew all that is proper, and thero is no need of you stickingyour nose init. As for you, Eugenle,” he addod, turning to her, “do Dot ‘say any more to me about this, orl will send :you tothe Abbey-of Noyers with Nanon, snd that no later than to-morrow, if you fail. Where is thishoy? Has he come down ? : No, my friend,” replied Madame Grandet. “Well, then, what 15 he doing *” ““He 1s weeping for his father,” replied Eugenie. . Grandet looked at his daughter, without find- ing a word to say. He was somewhat of a father, himself. After having taken one or two turns around the sitting-room, he went prompt- 1y to his closet, to think over an investment in overnment securities. His two thousand acres of woodland, which he had cat clean, had brought ‘him six hundred thousand francs; adding that sum to the money for his poplars, and’ his income for the last, and the current_year, besides the two hundred thous- and francs from the trade he bhad just made, he could gather together Dine hundred thousand francs. The 20 per cent to be made in = short time on rentes, which stood at seventy francs, tempted him. He ci- phered out his speculation on the paper in which million twenty-s0u pieces; and it takes five twenty-sou pieces to five franca.” ““Gaod Heavens!” exclaimed Eugenie, “How did my uncle have four millions? Is there an: ‘other person in France who has as many 3" Father Grandet stroked his chin, smiled, and his en seomed to swell. “But what will become of 1y cousin Charles?” “‘He will go to the EastIndies, where, ac- cording to his father's wishes, he will wy to the death of his brother was annonnced,—hear- ing, though not listeningto_them, the groans of his nephew, Nanon knocked on the wall to invite her master to come down; dinner was ready.” When in the hall, and on the last step of the stairs, Grandet said to himself, *Since I shall get 8 per cent interest, I will do this. In “two years 1 ghall have fifteen hundred thousand francs, which I will get back in good gold.” “Well, where is my nephew 27" make his fortune.” But has he money to go there?” I will pay his travelling expenses to—yes, to Nantes.” Eugenie hugged him. ¢~ Ah, my fatier, how good you are!” She idsscd him, so that Grandet, stung a iizle by his conscience, became almost saliomed. ¥ ** Docs it take much time to make a million 2’ neked she. “Lord!" ssid the cooper, *you know what & rapoleonis?

When Grandet had shut the door, Tugeuie and Ler mother breathed freely. Be- fore that morning, the 5111 bad never felt any constraint in her Tather's presence; but, during a few hours, her fcelings and her ideas had been changing. “3amma, how meany louis is & cask of wine worth *Your father sells his for from a hundred to bundred and Afty francs,—sometimes two hun- dred, I have heard it said.” And when ke makes fourteen hundred casks of wine? . “QOn my word, my child, I do not know what thai amouuts to; your father never tells me eoout his busine: “ Bat then papa must be rich 2" “ Perbaps. But Mr. Cruchot told me he ‘bought Froidfond two years ngo. That must have hempered him.” ZXugenie, unable to form anidea of herfather's fortune, stopped in her calculations. “ He did 1ot even see me, the darling!” said Nanon when she came back. He is stretched out like 2 calf on his bed, and weeps like a HMagdalen, so that it is a blessing to seo him. TWhat troubles this fine poor young man #” Let us go quickly, and console him, mamma, and, if 2nyone knocks, we will come down.” Madame Grandet was helpless_against the melodiés of her daughter's voico. Eugenie was ime ; she was & woman. Both, with pal- itating hearts, went up to Charles’ room. The loor was open. The young man eaw and heard nothing. Buried in misery, he uttered inartic- ulate cries 2 “How he loves his father!” said Eugenie, in 2 low voice. Tt was impoeikle to mistake, in the accents of these words th hopes of & heart enamored unkmown th itel \z So Madame Grandet gave her daughter a liok stamped with motherhood, &nd then said sotly iu her ear, “Take care; you will love him I* ! “Tove him!” replied Eugenie, “ah, if you kmew what my father has said.” Charles looked around, and saw his aunt and consin.

Thoy went down, silently resumed their places by the window, and worked for sbont &2 hour without exchanging & word, Eu- gonie had noticed, in the furtive look she had cast on the young man's possessions,—that look of young girls who see all in & second,~the ““He says he does not want to eat,” replied Nanon. “ That is not sholesome.” “So much saved, replied” her moster. “ Oh, Lord! " said she, “ Bahi he will not cry forever. Hunger drives the wolf out of the wood.” The dinner was singularly silent. “My good friend,” said Madume Grandet, when the cloth was removed, * wo must go into mourning.” “ Really, Madsme Grandet, you sro at s loss ‘what to invent to spend moncy. Mourning is in the heart, and not in the clothes.” “ But mourning is indispensable for a brother, and the Church orders us to ——" ¢ Buy your mourning out of yous six louis. You may give mo alittlocrape; fhat will answer for me.’ Eugenio raised her eyes to heaven, without saving s word. For tho first time in her life, her noble- inclinations, dormant, compressed, but euddenly swakened, were irritated overy moment. That evening was apparently likea thousand others of their monotonous existence, but it was certainly the most horrible one, Eugenie worked without lifting her head, and did not use the workbox which Charles had dis- dained on the previous evening. Madame Grandet knitted her slceves. Grandet twiddled his thumbe for four hours, buried in calcula- tions, the results of which were to astonish Saumur on the following day. No one came to visit the family that dsy. Just then, the vhole town resounded with the trick of Grandet, the foilure of his brother, and tho arrival of his nephew. To obey the need of talking sbont their common interests, all the vineyard-owners of the higher and mid- dle classes of Ssumur were at Mr. Des Grassins, where_terrible curses were fulminated against the old Mayor.. Nanon spun, and the noise of ber wheel was the only voico ‘that was heard un~ der the grayish ceiling of the sitting-room. e do not woear out our tongues,” seid she, ehowing teeth as white and large aa blanched onds. “‘We should wear ont nothing,” replied Gran- det,~swaking from his meditations. He saw himself, prospectively, with eight millions in three years, and eailed on_that long sheet of gold. * “ Letus go to bed, I will say good night to my nephevw for everybod, and seoif he wants to take anything.” 3 Madame Grandet remained on the first floor landing, to hear. the conversation between Charles and the good man. Eugenie, bolder than her mother, went up & couple of steps. “ell, my nephew, you are_in sorrow. - Yes, ory, that'is natural. 'A father i s father. But we must take our misfortunes patiently. Iam busying myself about youwhile you weep. Iam & good relative, look you. Come, courage! Will you drink s liftle gluss of wine?

One should see plainly what one is doing.” Grandet Tralked o the mantel-pioce. «Why " exclaimed he, ““here is & wax-candle. Where the devil did they fish thatup? These women would smash :p the flooring of my house to cook eggs for this A Tho mother and the dsughter, as they heard these words, went back inte their rooms, and slipped into their beds with the hisate of {right- ened mice returning to their holes. ¥ “Madame Grandet have you a hoard 2" ssid the husband, entering his wife's room. “ My friend, I am praying; wait,” replied the poor mother, in a wesk voice., 3 % The devil take your God | replied Grandet, growling. Misers do not believe in a fature life; the present is all to them. That reflection casts & terrible light on the present time, when, more than at any_other, money rules 1aws,” govern- ment and customs. Institutions, books, men; and creeds, all conspire to mine that benef in a fature existence ‘on which the social edifice has rested for eighteen hundred years. Now, the coffin is a little feared transi- tion. The future which awaits us beyond the requiem has been transferred to the present. To reach, by fair or foul means, the terrestrial para- dise of luxury and vain enjoyments, to petrify the heart and mortify the body, for transitory possessions, as they formerly endured s life of thonght,—s thonght which i8 written every- where, even in the Iaws, which ask the legielator, . #What do you pay?” instead of saying to him, #What do you. think ?”.

At the moment when, on acconnt of her fear, she was wrapping herself up in the eheets, 50 28 30 hear nothing, Eugenie glided into her room in er night-gown and barefooted, and kissed her on the forehead. _“Ob, dear mother!” said she; “to-morrow I will tell him that it is me.” “Ng, he will send you to Noyers. Let me menage it; he will not devour me.” . * Do you hear, mamma 7" is still erying.” = o to bed my deughter. Your feet will get ¢old; the Hoor i6 damp.” 5 Tins passed the solemn day which was to weiga upon the whole life of the rich and poor heiress, whose sleep was not as sound or as pure a8 it had been until then. Quite often cer- tain actions of humsn lifo seem, speaking literally, unlikely, though they are truo. But i it not because we almost always omit to throw on our spontancous revolutions a sort of psycho- logic light, by failing to_ explain the mysterious- Iy conceived reasons which noceasitated them ? Perhaps the profound passion of Eugenie ought to be analyzed.to its most dolicate fibres; for it became, some mockers would eay, an silment, and influenced her entire existence. MMany prefer denying the final re- sults to measuring the strength of the tics, the bonds,.the links, which secretly connect one fact with another in the moral order of things. Here, then, Eugenie's past will gerve, for ob- bervers of human nature, as a pledge for the simplicity of her thoughtlessnoss, and tho snd- deuness of the outpourings of her soul. The quioter hor life had been, the more warmly did fominino pity—the most ingenious of all feel- ings—develope itself in her mind. Thus, dis- turbed by the ovents of the day, she repeatedly wolie to listen to her cousin, believing that shoe Tenrd the sighs which, sinco the afternoon, had rung in her heart. Sometimes she saw him dying with grief; sometimes she dreamed he was oxpiring with hunger. Toward morning, she way certain she heard a terrible cry. She dreseed herself at once, and went lightly, at the break of day, to her cousin, who had Jeft his door open. The candle had burnt down to the socket. ~ Charles, conquered by naturo, slept, dressed, seated in an arm-chair,—his hea fulling back on the bed; he dreamed as peopla do when their stomachs aro cmpty. Eugenio could weep at her easo; she could admire that young and beautiful face, made pallid by grief, those ‘eyes, swollen from crying, and which, though “closed, still seemed to shed tears. Charies sympathetically felt the presence of Eugenie; bo opened Itis eyes, and saw her, thus affected. T beg your pardon, my cousin,” said be, evi- dently knowing neither the time nor the place where he was. + % There aro hearts which hear you, cousin, and we believed you necded something. = You should liedown; you tire yoursolf by staying s you o ¢ That is true.” “ell, good-byo " She retired, ashamed and happy that she had conte. Innocence alono dares such ventures. When taught, virtue calcalates_as well as vice. Eugenie, who had not trembled when with her couain, ' could hardly stand _when she was in her room. Her igmorsnt life hed suddenly cessed; she . reasoned, and reproached herself a thousand tfimes. #What will he think of me? He will believe I lovehim.” That was what sho chiefly desired to see him believe, Frank love has foresight, and knows that love excites love. Whatanevent for this solitary young girl to have thus secretly en- tored s young man's room! Arethere not thoughts and actions which, for certain_minds, are equivalent to a holy betrothal ? An Lour later, she went to her mother's room, and dressed her as usual. Then they sat down in their places before the window, and awaited Grandet with that anxiety which freezes or warms the heart, oppresses or dilates it, ac- cording to one's character, when a Eceno or a punishment s feared ; a feeling 80 natural that famo animals are so far controlled by it as to cry out at the elight pain of a punishment, while they keep quiet when they accidentally wound themselves. The good man came down, but he_spoke to hiswife in an absent-minded wey, kissed Eugenie, and took his place at the table, withont seeming to think of his threats of the preceding evening. «\Vlint has become of my nephew? The child makes no trouble.” : *He i asleep, sir,” replied Nanon. “So much the better; he does not need a wax- light,” said Grandet, in a bantering tone. “fhat_unusual clemency, that Dbitter gaiety, struck Madame Grandet, who looked at hor hus- band very attentively. The goodman — this is, perhaps, tho proper place to call attention to the. fact that in Touraine, Anjou, Poitou, and Baittany, the word “goodman,” already fre- quently used to designate Grandet, is given to the most cruel as well as the most gentle men, 80 soon as thoyhave reached a certain age. This title means nothing as to _individual kind- negs. So the goodman took his hat and gloves, and eaid: i I am going to loiter about on the square, to ‘meet our Cruchota.” E ‘"Elyxgenie, your father certainly is after some- ing. o Fact, little given to sleeping, Grandet spent Balf his ‘nights in the prelminary calculations which gavo his idess_bis observations, and his plans their astonisking sccuracy, snd assurod them that constant success st which tho people of Saumur marvelled. Buman power s a compound of patience and time. ~Powerful people will, and watch. The life of the miser 15 2 constant exercise of individualism. It rests on tro feelings alone: self-love and interest; but, interest being, to somo extent, solid and ecnsible, — 8elf-love, tho lasting proof of & real superiority, — selt- love and interest are but two parts of a common wholo: egotism, Henco arises, perhaps, the im- mense curiosity which misers_excite when skil-- fully brought- on the stage. Everybody is con- nected by a thread with these characters which defy all human feclings and yet include them all.” Where is the man without desire, and what social desire can be satisfied Withont money ? Grandot was really after something, as his wife expressed it. Therawas in him, as 1n all miscrs, the tonstant need of playing a gamo with other men, and of legally winning their money. Does not the deceiving of another show evidence of porwer and give one's self the perpetual right to despise those who, too weak, allow themselves to bo devoured here below? Oh! who bas folly understood the lamb lying gracefully at the feot of God,—the most touching emblem of all earthly victims, and of their future,—in a word, gloritied suffering and weakness. The miser allows the lamb o get fat; ho pens it up, killa it, cooks it, eats 1t, and despises it. i o0d of misors consists of money and con- tompt. During the night the goodman's ideas hsd taken another direction; hence his mercy. He had contrived & plot_to put the Parisians to Beorn; to twist thom, roll them, knead them; to make them go and come, sweat, hope, and grow pale ; to amuse himself with them,—ke, an old cooper, in tho retirement of his gray sitting- room, and while climbing the worm-eaten staws of his house at Ssumur. His nophew had occupied him, He wanted to save the honor ‘of his dead brother, without its costing him or his nephew a farthing. Hig money was about to be invested for three years, he had to do was to look after his re: estate; he required some food for his malicious activity; and he had found it in his brother’s ailure, Feeling nothing within his pawa to be ‘squeezed, be wanted to grind up thé Parisians for Charles’ benefit, and to show himself an ex- cellent brother cheaply. The honor of his family entered for go little into his plan that his good will must be compared o the desire which ‘players experience to see ahand in which they “martyrdom for eternal blessings, is the general- |- ave nothing at stake well played. The Cru- chots were necessary tohim, and he did not want to goin search of them; and ha had decided to make them come to his house, and to begin there, that very evening, the comedy, the plot, ‘of which *he had been conceived, in order that the next day, without its continfi 2 penny, ho might boe the object of the ation of his city. . In the absence of her father, Eugenie had the happiness.of being_sblo to openly busy herself about her well-loved consin; to pour out upon him, without; fear, the treasures of her pity,— one of the sublime qualities where woman is su- preme,—the only one she wishes to have no- ticed, and the only one wherein aheTpu.rdonE man for allowing her to excel him. Three or four times, Eugenie went to hear her cousin’s breathing ; to know if he slept, if he was awake ; the, whon ho gob up, the coffos tho cream, the eggs, the fruit, the dishes, tho glass,—all which formed part of the breakfast,—were the object of some attention on her part. She went softly up the old stairs to listen tothe noige thaf her cousin made.. Was ho dressing himself? Was he. still weeping ? Sho went even to the door. ]‘!Ivy cousin. “Will you breakfast in the sitting-room or your own room ?"” % “*Wherever you please.” £ How do you feel 2" - @Afy-dear cousin,’T am ashamed of being hungry.” ” This conversation through the door was, for Eugenie, & perfect episode in a romance. “Very well, we will bring your breakfast to you, 80 a8 not to cross my father.” She went down to the kitchen with tho light- ness of a bird. ‘Nanon, go and fix up his room.” That staircase, 80 ofton ascended and de- scended, and whers the least noiss reached, seomed to Eugenie to have lost its antiquated character; she saw it luminous; it spoke; it *| Charles Grandet saw was young like her,—young like herlove, which it served. Hor mother, too, her good #nd in- dulgent mother, lont 'herself willingly to the whims of her love; and, when Charles’ room had been put in order, they both went to_keep company with the udfortunate man. Did not Christian charity order them to console ? These two women drew from religion quite a number of little sophisms to justify their actions. So mself the object of the tenderest snd most affectionato attentions. His bruised heart feli keenly tho sweetness of that velvet-like friendship, of that exquisite sympathy, which these two souls, al- ways left in constraint, knew how to display when they found themselves free for & moment in the realm of suffering,—their natural sphere. Authorized by r_elafionah:fl, Engenio set to work to arzange the linen and tho toilet_ articles that her cousin had brought, and could wonder un- disturbed at every costly trinket, at the toys of silver and_chased gold, which came under her hands, and which sho héld for 2 long time, under pretence of examining them. Charles did nob Beq without doep emotion the generous interest which his sunt and his cousin displayed toward him; he was well enough scquainted with Paris- ian society to know that, in his position, he would have found but indifferent or “cold hearts. Eugenie appeared to him, them, in all the s‘;flendor of her peculiar beauty, and he ad- mired, from that moment, the innocence of those Ways at which ho had laughed the day be- fore. So, when Eugenie took from Nanon's hands the porcelain bowl full of coffee and croam, to serve her consin, with all_the ingenu- ousness of affection casting on him a kindly look, the eyes of the Parisian were moistened with tears; he took her hand and Lissed it. “Well, what gricves you now ? " asked she. {Oh! they are tears of gratitude,” he replied. Eugenie tarned abruptly to the mantel-piece to take the candlesticks, ah“Nnnnn, take them ; carry them away,” said e.

Gungl is giving concerts in Berlin, where his danghter recently made a successful debul in the *‘ Magic Flute.” At a recent performrance of Herod's ¢ Preaux Clercs,” at the Opera Comique, with Madame Miolan Carvalho in the principal character, Mada2e Christine Nilsson was present—come, a8 she was heard to say—* prendre une lecon da chant” It is rumored at Vionna that a manuscript opera, entitled ‘“Tancreds,” has been found among the papers of the late pianist, Theodore Dobler, who wrote it (on di), aided by the coun- sel and instruction of Rossini. The oung cancairice, Stells Bonhear, is en- gaged by Signor Merelli for Moscow. Her en- gagement will last two months, after which she returns to_ Turin. Verdi is said to be very nnxtioua to hear her. Thereis no accounting for tastes. Herr Josof Bchnlz-Weids, the composer of humorons pisnoforte compositions, died at Brunswick, a short time since. Mozart's too much neglected opers, * Cosi fan Tatto," s besa produced with great success st ogna. A ONenbach appesred both as suthor and composer in his new three-act opera, “ Le Cor- saire Noir,” in Vienna, on the 21st ultimo, at the An der Wien Theatre. The singers were Mes- dames Geistinger, Mila Roeder, Mlle. Meersberg, Herr 8woboda ((Le chief buffo). The libretto was regarded as weak, .the "Black Corsair being & kind of Croquemitsine, the befe noire_of s DBourgeois Lambrequin, whose two niecee and their lovers, the brothers Mis- tral, frighten the uncle into assent to their union. The overture snd couplets for the so- prano and bass in the first act, the air of Suzan- ne in the second, & waltz-song, & drinking-song, and the finale, won universal favor in the second act, and in the third a_barcarole a deuz voiz for w0 soprani, in the ballet-music, and a chorns, quite delighted the Viennese.

Dr. Fayrer's table of deaths from snake-bite in the Presidency of Bengal, including Orjesa and Assam, in the P\mi;b and Oude, in the Cen- tral Provinces and in Burmah, during the year 1869, farnishes a statistical basis for estimating the destruction of life due to this extensive plague of Indis. The grand total of desths among & population of 120,972,263 swas no less then 11,416, or about four in every 10,000, Even these figures can hardly b accepted s repre- genting the total mortality to bo set down to the score of ‘this terrible pl;fin Wero the returns sccurately and exhaustively made from ell Hindostan, it is prob- ble that upward of 20,000 persons would be fo und to die 2nnually in India from snake-bit alone. The local distribution of these victimse with their gex, age, &c., together with tho pro- Enrfiun of deaths due to each kind of snake, will e found clearly set forth in Dr. Fayrer's figures. No less that 2,690 fell to the fang of the cobra, 859 to the krait, and 839 to other known snakes in 6,922 cases the origia of the bite not having been traced. Upon the treatmont of snake-bite tho suthor goes carefullyinto the pathology and modes of cure derived from native usage, &8 well a8 from the experience and observation of Europeans. In his opinion, confirmed as it is by carsful experiment, in the case of & true bite, wken a healthy and vigorous cobra, homadryad, bungarus or dabois, has imbedded, its fangs and innoculated the poison, littls chance, if any, of saving life exists, unléss the most prompt and vigorous aid be given, Even then the resources of medical skill are but lim- ited, and of uncertain eficacy. The bite may in many s case be inflicted without the venom be- ing injected. Thus seoms to be explained tha supposed immunity of the mangoose, - In Dr. Fayrer's experiment, the mangoose, afteran affray with a fresh and viscious cobrs, though bleeding from many & wound, showed no signs of poiso) ing. 8 cobra was then made to close its jaws firmly upon tho! mangoose's thigh. In s few minutes the mangoose lay dead. The previous wounds had been mere scratches, withont injection of venom. Sometliing may still be done by quick excigion or ligature, or even by the use of stimulants and counteracting agencies, What our author holds to be the most practical remedy of 2llis the extirpation of these pests by s judicious and Kberal system of rewards, on & scale adjusted to the comparative deadliness of each snale, as- sisted by the k:nowled%)a of their characters, which may be diffused by books like his, He would go as far as eight annas for a Cobra Ophiopliagus, or Dabota Russelii, six for a Bungarus cerulcus, four for & Bungarus fascia~ tus or Echis, and two for a Trimeresurus. A summary of suggestions for the treatment of ‘persons bitten, intended in the first instance for the gflidnnca ‘of police officers, is appended, +which should be hung up in every police station or public place, There our author would also have in store a supply of whipcord for ligatures, irons for cautery, & knife for excision, with ‘bottles of ammonia and nitric or carbolic acid. In the efficacy of these medicines when once the venom has passed into the blood Dr. Fayrer has evidently not much more belief than he has_in the enake-stone and other ridiculous kinds of amulet. Still, there is no harm in try- ing them, or in applying the magnetic or electric current to the heart or diaphragm, o in the use of alcoholic or other stimulants. The injection of ammonia or liquor potass® into the veins has not in his experiments been attended with the success which bas been announced by other practitioners. We have, indeed, only to reflect, 28 he does, upon the depth to which the fang of either cobra or viper penetrates, the force with which the yenom is injected, and the extreme rapidity with which it is hurried along the vascu- lar system to the nerve-centres, in order to feel how futile i Likely to bo any altempt to over- take and counteract the morbific virus. Experi- ‘ments with strychnine and carbolic acid tend to encourage the idea of there being some specifio quality in_these agents antagomiatic to cobra poison, and they have been fonnd go fatal to the snalke itself as to recommend their free use a8 a means of keeping these venomous visitants out of harm’s way, if not exirtpating them alto- gether. But reliance on so-called antidotes of Whatever kind is judiciously depreciated, es tending to the loss of the fow precious moments within~ which excision, the ligature, or the cautery may arrest the deadly agent at the thres- hold of the portals of life.—Saturday Review. i A e AN INCIDENT. “ A man dropped dead in the street, they say; His body is there, Just over the way, ‘Where the crowd is pressing about, ‘Ho was passing along when he staggoreg and foll~ The last you'd suppose, he Jooked g0 well And scemed g0 halo and stont. “ "Tvas heart-disease that killed him, they say.
