And yet it is a subject on which it is of the greatest importance that the ideas should be elear and the judgment sound The incidence and spread of cholera have heretofore been governed almost invar found ready made to its taste —that is to say, the number of ill-fed people living in'filthy. erowded houses, and breathin a polinted atmosphere.

The disease en- tered the city, but it was not communi- cated from the steerage to the cabin pas- songers on the infected ships: and on this it is that we are asked to rest owr faith in the tremendous efficacy of quar- antines. 1t would have been reasonable suppose, o priori. that a disease arising from spe causes inhering in the indi- vidual and his personal effects would ob- serve peculiar laws, and spread from person to person us readily on hoard ship as in the city: but it was not found to do 80 in the case of the Normannia at the port of New York recently, anda knowl- edge of this fact is essential to an under- standing of this subject. It has been established by a multitude of evidence perfectly overwhelming that cholera will not spread by contagion from person to person, but only through infected food or drink, or an infective principle in the atmosphere defendent upon local conditions. Prof. von Petten- kofer of Munich, the great modern authority upon such subjects, in an_ ad dr published in the Munchener Medi- cinische Wochenschrift wember, 1892, said that “‘the etiology of cholera is an equation with three unknown quanti ties, namely, x, a specific germ dissem nated by human inter: stor dependent on place and time, which he calls ‘local disposition,” and z, the individual predisposition.” While not denying that x, the specific gorm, has some etiological im- portance, Prof. von Pettenkofer says he cunnot think that the comma Dbacillus, without the assistance of loeal disposition, can cause epidemics of chol- Practically he believes that local physical, and sanitary conditions mu: be attended to in order to make a cholera-p ‘0of. To show his utter disbelief in tl cholera being transmitted by germs the disease, except where the “local dis- position” exists, Prof. obtained some cholera bacilli from Ham- burg, which he carefully cultivated in bouillon, and after neutralizing the small amonnt of acid in his stor h to produce a good medium for the develop- other n sati \ors, cove Now science energy the at national, state the r and a dozen or ims to the di At med that t fons 1 infected bay, under more as a dranght of the fresh ing numberless comma L which he experienced no inconvenien except colicky pains and amoderate diagrhoa two ys after, The nined bucteriologically by Dr Pleiffor and 1 ohre du tion of the diarrhcea, and were be swarming with comma beeilli, there were no symptoms of Asiatic cholera.

One of the most impor ant as well as most difi branches of medical science is to ascertain the effect of the reigning constitution of the air on pre- vailing ai and to apply that knowledge to the arrest and cure of those diseases, In opposition to the theory cholera s never propagated in America, but al- ways imported from abroad, it is very probable that the disease may, and gen- y does, originate in the count it exists as an epider The common opinion of the propagation of pestilential diseases solely thro 1 the deadly m diffusing itself in the air has most calamitous ef m human happiness, piec researches of ent have boer dili i of the subje ence to its real causes, to suggest the true means of avoiding the terrible scourge of Asiatic choler vithout denying to trade and travel any of facilities which consistently with every prudential r d for con- ions of protection and safety it may be permitted to enjoy The quarantine the ing the exclusion of the germ of thedis- cuse at the expense of neglecting all other nitary precautions.

On_ December 1848, a steamer in- a landed in New York. Of the immigrants by this steamer, fifty died at the quarantine, which at that time was merely nominal, and yet not case of the disease occurred outside the until the 1lth day of May, ly six months after the deaths 1tine, when two deaths were re- y ot w York. In November, 1853, no less than twenty vessels, on which 1,141 persons had died of cholera, arrvived at the port of New York, but the disease did not obtain a foothold in the country until January, 1854, at which time it broke out in th city of St. Louis. From this center it passed to Chicago in April, to Detroit in May, and in June it became epidemic in w York. In 1865 three steamers ari York from Havr been deaths from the voy but no cases in the city.

The reason why twenty days has been fixed on as the period necessary and suflicient to exterminate infection in all its known and unknown states no one has ever pri tended to assign. Let us look at the system in relation to merchandise. The argument nst a national quarantine, as applicable to ‘merchandise, is short and unanswerable. ,As the germ cholera is, according to Prof. Koch, killed by drying, and as it cannot be conveyed by curreats of air except when dry, but little importdnce is attached b scientists to the ipfluence of the atmo: )here in contagilnating merchandisc The only . thevefore, in which goods :an be contagionéd is'by being handled, or by coming in eimtact, by some means or other, with those affected with the disease.

But granting that merchandise may be infected, what immunity is afforded a community by quarantine from contami- nation by pestilential contagion con- veyed in such goods?
