Schofield received a telegram from Gen. Miles this morning, dated Pine Ridge, Jan. 14th, as follows : " In orderto restore entire con- fidence among these Indians, I have found it neoesoary to send a delegation to Wash. ington to receive assurance of the highest authority of the good intention of the Government towards them. This will answer a donble purpose, namely, satisfy them, bridge over the tzaneition period between war and peace, dispel distrust and hostility and restore confidence. It will aleote a guarantee of peace while they are absent. I ask that my action may receive the approved of the department by tele- graph. Everything is progressing satisfac- torily, and I oan see no reason why perfect peace may not be established." By direction of Seoretary Proctor, Gen. Schofield sent the following reply : ",The Secretary of War conferred with the Presi- dent and the Seoretary of the Interior in regard to yt$nr proposal :to -send' a delega- tion of the Sioux Chiefs to Washington, and they approve of your recommendation. The Seoretary of the Interior has sent an agent to conduct them. 1t is desired that the delegation be as small as possible -- five or six, or not more than ten.

Miles bad qrdered civiliap(s Jo keep out of the hostile camp, beoange he intended to dis- arm the Indians if he had' to shell their Damp to do it. 'The General •could not be seen to substantiate the statement. Adintant-General' Corbin would neither admit nor deny that such a course bad been deaths due to abdominal typhus. inclined to the belief that the Koch remedy was the oanee thereof. Dr. Guttman followed. He said a dozen mess now ander bis treatment were nearly oared, and be argued that the adverse results in various oases reported by Prof. Virohow and others merely showed that the lymph should only be used in the early stages of the disease. Prof. Kooh's report, issued to -day, as to the ingredients which compose hie lymph, considering the importance of the subject, is of the moat brief nature. It nye the lymph consists of glycerine and an extract from a pure cultivation of the tubercle baooilli. 9 A Berlin cable says: The secret of the in- gredients entering into the composition of Prof. Kooh's lymph is given today to the world. Prof. Kooh eaye : " Since pub- lishing two months ago the result of my experiments with the new remedy for tuberculosis, many physicians who re- ceived the preparation have been able to beoome acquainted with its pro- perties through their own experiments. So fur ae I have been able to review the statements published and the oommnnioa- tions...received _by _letter,. my indications have been -fully and completely confirmed. The general consensus of opinion is that the remedy has a epeoifio' effect on tubercular tisanes and is therefore.applioable as a very delioete and sure reagent for discovering latent and diagnosing tuberculosis process. Regarding the onrative effects of the reined , most reports agree that, despite the comparatively shot duration of it application, many patients have shown more or less pronounced improvement. It has been affirmed that in not a few oases even a cure has been established. Standing quite by itself is the assertion that the remedy may not only be dangerous in oases which have ,advanced too far -a fact which may forthwith be conceded -but also that it actually pro- decided upon. So long, he . said, as the motes the tuberculous process, being, there - arms were being anrrendered by the Indians there was no necessity to use force. This morning twenty Indians came into She agenoy under Little Hawk and eur- rendered 31 gun°. Their clothing was not searched, and no one doubted they had bidden arms which they would not hesitate to use in an emergenoy.

REVOLUTION IN CIHILI. and Coquimbo Blockaded by Chilfas' War Vessels. Iquique A despatch from Valparaiso states that the Chilian men-of-war have given, notice that they will begin a blockade of the port of Iquique January 20th. Thedmportation of provisions into Iquique has already been .stopped. Additional despatohee say the rebels, have declared the ports of Chili blockaded in order to interrupt the nitrate trade. Private despatches from Iquique state that the blockade extends to Coquimbo. The Chilian warships Almirante Cochrane and Megell are operating the blockade. A11 the telegraph wires to the north of Valpa- raiso have been out. The Chilian ironclad Almirante Coch- rane has seized the cargo left by the steamer Santiago at Iquique. The Coch- rane's commander has given notice that he will blookade Iquique on the 20th instant. The Peruvian ,consul at Iquique telegraphs that the various consuls will . protest against the threatened blockade. It is inferred from the show, that the Cochrane is one of the vowels taking part in the. Chilian "revolt. 'fore injurious. During the past -six weeks I myself have had opportunity to bring together further experiences touching the curative effects and diagnostic application of the remedy in the oasesof about 150 sufferers from tuberculosis of the most varied types in this city and in the Moabit -Hospital. I oan only say that everything I have latterly Been accords with my previous observations. There bas been nothing to modify in what I have re- ported. Along as it was only a question of proving the accuracy of myindications, it was needless for any one to know what the remedy contained or whence it was derived. On the contrary, subsequent testing would necessarily be more unbiased the lees people know of the remedy itself. Now after sufficient confirmatory testing the importance of tbe remedy is proved, my next task is to extend my study of the remedy beyond the field whereit has hitherto been applied, and if possible to apply the principle underlying the discovery so other 'diseases. This task naturally. dem'ende a full knowledge of the remedy. I therefore consider the time has arrived when' the re- quisite indications in this direction shall be made. This is done in what follows. Before going into the remedy itself, I deem it necessary, for the better understanding of its mode of operation, to' state briefly the way by which I arrived at the discov- ery. If the healthy Guinea pig be inocu- lated with the pure cultivation of German culture ; of tubercle baoilli, the wound caused by the inoculation mostly closes over with a sticky matter and appears in its early days to heal. Only after ten to fourteen days a hard module presents itself, whioh, soon breaking, forma an ulcerating sore which continues until the animal dies. Quite a different oondition of things occurs when a guinea pig already anffering from tuberonlosie is inoculated: An animal successfully inoculated from four to six weeks is beat adapted for this purpose. In such an animal the small indentation asaumee the same etioky coating at the begin- ning, but no module forms. On tnberenlosie.

Larkin Didn't Eay Why. lymphatio gland° is reduced, the body becomes better nourished, and the morbid process ceases, nnleee it has gone too far, in whioh case the animal perishes from ex- hanation. By this means the basie•,of e curative process against tuberonlosis was established. Against the practical appli• nation of such dilutions of dead tuberole baoilli there presented itself the fact that tubercle baoilli are not absorbed at the in another way, but for a long time remain unchanged, and engender' greeter or smaller suppurative food. Anything, therefore, intended to exercise a healing effeot on,the tuberculous process must be a soluble snb- stanoe which would be laxiviated to a pertain extent by the fluids of the body floating around the tubercle baoilli and be transferred in a fairly rapid manner to the pieces of the body, while the substance prodnoing suppuration apparently remains behind in the tnberonlar baoilli, or dissolves but very slowly. The only important point was therefore to induce outside the body the process going on inside if possible, and to extract from the tnberonlar baoilli alone the curative subetanoe. A VEHICLE FOUND. This demanded time end toil, until I finally auooeeded with the aid of a 40 to 50 per cent. solution of glycerine in obtaining an effeotive substance from the tubercular baoilli. With the fluid so obtained I made further experiments on animals, and finally on human beings. These fluids were given to other physicians to enable them to re• peat the experiments., The remedy which is need in the new treatment consists of a glycerine•," m the pure extract derived from cultivation of tubercle baoilli." Into the simple extract there naturally passes from the tubercular baoilli, besidea'the effeeotive substance, all the other matter soluble in 50 per ,tens. glycerine, Consequently it contains a oertain quantity of mineral Halts, ooloring enbetances, and other un- known extrnotive matter. Some of these ens essoi C"an-foe- removed -from -it --'with tolerable ease. The effective substance itself is'insoluble in absolute alcohol. It oan be precipitated by it, not indeed in a condition of perfeot purity. but when still combined with other extractive matter. The coloring, matter may also be removed so as to render it possible to obtain from the extract a colorless dry sub- etanoe containing the effective principle in a much More concentrated form than the original glycerine solutions. For applica- tion in practice the purification of the` glycerine extract offers no advantage, because the substances "so eliminated are not essential for lithe human organisms. The purification process would also make the coat of the remedy unnecessarily high. Regarding the constitution of more effective subatancee, Prof. Koch says that surmisea only oan be for the present expressed. These substances appear to him to be derivative from albuminone bodies having a close affinity to them. The extract does not belong to the so•called group of tox- albumens, , because it bears a higher temperature, and in dyallysis goes easily and gaiokly through the membrane. The proportion of the effective anbetanoe in the extract' is to all appearances very email, and is estimated at fractions of one per centum, which, if correct, shows that we should beveto do with matter the effect of which upon organisms attacked with tnberonloeie pee far beyond what is known to ne of the stroneest drugs.

Of the con- sumptive patients whom he described as temporarily cured, two have returned to the Moebit Hospital for further observe tion. No baoilli have appeared in their sputum for the past three months, and their physical symptoms have gradually and completely disappeared. PIRATES MAKE A HAUL. Forty Pirates Take Possession of a Ship and Unload its Treasures. A San Francisco despatch says : Advices from China state that the Douglas Com. peny's steamer Namoa left Hong Kong on Deo. 10th for Swarton with tour European and 250 Chinese peseengere. When about 45 miles from Hong Kong she was taken possession of by 40 pirates, armed with re- volvers, which they ,concealed while coming on board. Captain Pocock was treacher- ously shot while parleying with the pirates, and Capt. Peterson, a passenger, was also killed. The Malay quartermaster was killed and thrown overboard. Two officers and two Malay quartermasters, a Chinese sailor and Chinese cook were wounded and three Chinese passengers are said to have been stabbed. The Europeans had no weapons, and were almost power - lege. Thaleirates looked them all in the captain's Stateroom. After ransacking the ship the-pirates-xnohored--Diose-to-4h island. The booty ,was put on board junks from the island, and the ship was released. She was able to reach Hong Kong next morning. The authorities are pursuing the pirates.

Regarding the manner in whioh • the specific action of the remedy ontuberoulons tissue ie to be represented •yari'oue hypo- theses may naturally be put forward. Without wishing to' affirm That my view "affords the best explanation. I represent the process myself chi the following man- ner : The tubercle bacilli produced when growing in living tisanes the same as in artificial oultivatione„contain certain sub• stances which variously and notably an - favorably influence living elements in their vicinity. Among theee is a 'substance which, in a certain degree of concentration, kills or en alters living protoplasm that it passed into a condition that Weigert de- scribes as coagulation necrosis.

Above is the exact official return of the total population of the United States in 1890, according to the latest bulletin issued from the Census Bureau The Reading of Books. An active -minded boy or girl oan find out to great deal about the world we live in,by the habit of attention, by looking around and he or she can get mtiohlinspirri- tion from the example of good men and women. But this knowledge can bo added to indefinitelyy by reading, and - people will read if they have a genuine desire to know things, and are not, as we say, ” too lazy to live." When I hear a boy say that he does ,not know what to read,,I wonder if he has no curiosity. Is there nothing that he wants to know about ? Most, children ask gneotione. It often happens that the persona they ask cannot answer the questions. Now, it is the purpose of books to do just this thing which the particular person asked cannot do. And that is about all there is in reading. Of mune it must be borne in mind that curiosity is of many kinds; curiosity about facts, about emotions, about what happened long ago, about what;is taking place now, about the people who lived ages ago, and the people who live now, about others, and about one's self. So it happens that one wants to read science, and poetry, and history, and biography, and romances, and the daily news. It is quite impossible to lay down rules for reading that will snit all children, and generally difficult to map out a " course " to be inflexibly pursued by any one. But nearly every mind is or can be interested in something, and a wengood plan is to encourage reeding•conoerning the subject the child shows some curiosity about. One thing will certainly lend lo another, for nothing is isolated in this world. Try to find out all you coo about one thing, one tact in history, one person, the ba,bite of one'animal, the truth shout one historical character ; pursue this, and before you know it you will be a scholar in many things. Do not forget that reading is a means to an end. " The indulgence of it is good or bad according to. the end in view. The mind' is benefited by pursuing some definite subject until it is nnderatood, but it is apt to be impaired by idly nibbling now and then, tasting' a thousand things, and swallowing none,in short, by desultory reading. -Charles Dudley Warner in Janu- ary St. Nicholas.
