The Exeter Times, 1886-7-15, Page 3HEALTH, Is Medioine d Pregreaaive 8oienee ? There is stili no doubt,'.a vent amount of: eufferf 1g and disown !Among us, but it would. be folly to deny that the difleeenoe between the past and the vresent iii inn moose. The stothosoopo has made it as easy to doteot a damaged heart or an inefiiolont Wog as a broken leg. The ophthalmosoopo eneblos us to oe;ploro the innermost recesses ef the eye, while with the, laryng0000pe we can have ocular proof of the condition of the windpipe. The n)lorosoopo enlightens us to the true neturnof growths, and oeoh timely information often makes it peetible to check their development. Anteethetios have ,rob- bed surgery of all its ornelty and, half its danger ; they have moreover extended Ito sphere ef action, for opersitione are now fre- quently performed whioh formerly could not have been attempted. The introduction ef the antiaoptiy method has largely increased the proportibin of reooverfes after severe wounds and mutilatton8, and hag ales done much to insure the safety of the lying-in. chamber, Tho necessity of nutting for (stone is now obviated by measures whioh involve nel er pain nor eeriouc risk, and there can a little doubt that the operation will in the course of the next 50 years be- come obsolete) in civilized countries. Small pox to no tenger the standing menace to beauty that it once was, while it is scarcely taken into account ae°a possible danger of life by erdinary people, Typhoid fever still claims many victim, though It is being. gradually driven off the field by an enlight- ened hygiene ; typhae ie almost unknown except in the lowest and most squalid haunts of poverty, Madness is now treated as a bodily disease, not as a surge of Gad or. spite of the devil, the result being a large proportion of recoveries, and infinitely less suffering among the incurable. A like im- provement is seen in ether branches of the medioal art. The loathsome compounds invented, ono might suppose, by a council of ghouls and aoavongera—whioh need to be ordered, no longer vex the palates er up- heave the atomaohs of unfortunate patients ; the active prinoiple of the most important remedies has been separated, so that the agent oan be administered in a purer and more efficient form, while the physlelogiaal action of the drug is determined by experi- ment and is taken as the index of its there - pantie value, Lees physio in given, but it is prescribed with a clearer purpose. Better NW), mere attention is paid to diet and the hygienio surroundings' ef the patient, and, above all, nature is lens inoumbored with the officious help of a blind ally who initiate on aidingher with a zeal that is net ao- cording to knowledge. The truth has at last been borne in en the medical mind that many diseases run a'certain definite course on which no medicine has any effect for good, though it may have for evil, and that accordingly a policy of masterly inaotivity is the wisest in ouch oases, The phyaioal changer wrought by disease and the morbid processes whioh giverise to them are now to a certain extent accurately known, and this field of inquiry promisee to be increas- ingly fluidal of solid result. Some scatter- ed rays of light, toe, are beginning to pierce the ahrond ef darkness whioh formerly made the origin of disease a more impene- trable mystery than the source ef the Nile; This marks one of the greatest advancer, in the history of mpoloine, and its practical importance-ebvionely inoalonlable. The cause clearly known, the effect ran often be removed, or, better still, prevented. Spe- oifio fevers may possibly be banished from among men, and even those fell scourges, consumption and cancer, :may in course of time be stamped one One disease after another is traced to the action of organisms infinitesimal in size, but having an almost inconceivable power of self•multiplioation. From leprosy to a cold in the head the f/ conqueror worm" in credited wit' the generation of almost every farm of dieor- dor ; where it has not yet been found it is suspected, nit word, the sign Bacillus to in the ascen� LJn the medical firmament. THE PLAGUE OF EGYPT. A Dissertation en Files as They Exert by the Banks of the Nile. If I should be called on to name thq most vital animal element of Egypt it would not. be buffalo, donkey, camel, ostriob or man, Bays the Hon. S, S. Cox. It would be the files. It was winter, but they were as plen- tiful as In time of summer or of the plagues. In the eighth chapter of Exodus it is said that the Lord "did according to the word of Moses, and he removed the swarms of files from Pharaoh, from hie servants, and from his people a there remained not one." What a relief ? Not one." That was near 4,000 years ago. They have accumulated since enormously. Without displaying any in- orednlity, I have my doubts of there being a time when there was not one fly in all that land. It is said that there is good in everything, and, if so, there must be some utility in the fly. Its possible power for gond may net have been measured. That it produces ophthalmia and tends generally to derogate from the land of Oafris and Rumen's no one will dispute, The perpetu- al irritation of the flies, especially upon the eyes of the obildren—like that of a flea —may provoke the lazy" fellah" to exer- tion, and thus' help him to discharge his debt to nature, if not to the bondholder. If one did not know by certified papri that these mumified kings- and queens were an- cient, and had, therefore, shriveled their condition might he a000unted for by the plague of files, Much trouble has been. taken to account for the building of the grand tombs and pyramids in the deep eands and rubble, It is not difficult to solve when we remember that priest and king i suffered from the swarms of flies, The in. kindle death -rate Is due meetly to flies, On the vetted or in the mud -'hut, in temple, or town—flies l From Thinito, first dynasty 2700, to the time of the present court- eous an uneelfish khedive—files 1 Theban, Bubasthe, Saito,: Ethiopian, Macedonia, Greek, Roman, and Mahometan dynasties— flies 1 From the tiniest buzzoer to the big- gest blue -bottle -flies !

A. SOUP) ,AMERICAN PITY. sir 0 H. k'OWLRR, Montevideo ' grcote one like a North Amorioan oity, It is Olean, weihbailt, with Wide eatreeteand 'tell butltUnge;own parcel with the )iuildibge whioh ,chareoteriza nearly all the entice fn tide country, In the beelines part of the olty there are many tbreoeteey buildings, Most of the business hemea, however, are only two etorioa, while a little out of the business eeetlous the houses drop South to the h $ th Acnerioan standard—©Cid story. The city stands on an arm of far{d resorting out between the bay and the eeat and inhales freshness at every breath. The site of the eltyis rolling down toward the water, on three sides. ft thus lies up the eye of the ooming stranger as if it had noth ing to ooneeal. Ito topography furnishes the best poeaible oonditions for drainage, conditions whioh have been well utilized. Tim old city near the Hem was oloeely bo uicged from 1842 to 1851. in those hard yeare anew oity sprung up around the besieging encampments, with shops and stores and ohurcbeoand factories. After the coming of peace the intermediate opine was laid out by the beet French en- gineers, and the two aitlea rapidly grew into ens, on the best ground and after the moot; improved models of modern times, This apace between the oombetaute is now the moat beautiful and desirable part of the oon- solidetod city. It is suggestive that cities; homes, and marts thrive Bo well on fields where human hearts have been broken and emptied. When wheat thrives on the field of Waterloo, it ought not to eurprlse us that Montevideo should grow well over the Cor- don, The 724 Woke of the old pity are now augmented by the 1,293 blocks of theitnew pity. As in many another case, submission secures transformation and translation, Bloomed with, a climate the best in South America, sitting by the side of the sea and on the bank of the La Plata,, looking over her right shoulder aortae the river to the Argentine bank, slxtyfive miles away, and over the left shoulder morose the sea to Eu- rope, 6,000 miles away, intrusted with the key to South Temperate America, thus fa- vored by nature, Montevideo must beoome a great pity or make jammer at the bar of abilo opinion. A HISTORICAL SKETCH. Founded by,Zevala, governor of Buenos Ayres, on the feaet day of the Sainte Philip and Jamas (now the patron saints of the city ), May 1, 1717, as a menace to the Portuguese, it has had the life of a pugilist and a brigand, At first only a military poet, and then a colony where emigrants were brought in from the Canary islands, and subsidized in the interest of Buenos Ayres as against Brazil, it has had too much of this blood and spirit to secure the thrift of peaaefnl industry. Ito early`growth in commerce was nevertheless marvelcua. It sprang up to the first importance almost aa•aoon en it was made a free port in 1774, Independence from Spain brought troubles as wellae blessings. In 1818 Buenos Ayres claimed her independence and competed for thin commerce of• the Le Plata. Situ- ated'120 miles up the river, she bad certain advantages in controlling the trade with her own territory. This oheoked the rapid development of Montevideo. Her oom- meroewhioh was $7144;000 in 1792, was only $10,620,000 in 1836. But the heaviest millstone bound around her neck bag been her periodical, semi -periodical, habitual revolutions. Government out here is a game of wolf and sheep, named from the sheep side but practised from the wolf aide. The wolves show this forecast. They do not suck all the blood. They allow the sheep to pro- duce successive supplies of nourishment, Each ruler in expected to plane to hie credit large mime of money in foreign banks in safety vaults. Then when 'events foreako him he oan forsake his country, fly to his treasures, and leave the flock to the next wolf in order. The beet president, Gen. Santos, whose successor le his own brother -in law, is said to have passed $700,000 to hie personal credit a week before the inauguration of hie relative. As he retains oommand of all the armies, it is not necessary for him t o reek other ;horse till the army shall have chosen other leaders, Such obangee are publioly made and quite generally believed. One finds an excuse for these thing, in the faot that a people who will submit to such gov- ernment are incapable of being governed by,. any better system. PERILS, IMMUNITIE AND NEEDS. It deem not inspire public confidence to hate a prominent candidate for popular sup- port stabbed to death in the hall of the pre- sident's dwelling house and then see the assassin imprisoned for a few weeks in ele- gant apartments of the same house, and im- mediately after that promoted to high authority In the army. As one looks at the door against whioh the poor victim was held while being repeatedly stabbed, and at the window where the assassin basked in the sunlight, it is hard not to shrug the shoulders and wonder why the eheep wait so patiently for their turn. It is not strange that nearly all the business of Montevideo is done by foreigners. There is another power which the rulers have learned to re- apeot, that, is the power book of the foreign ministers. A`certafn English ship chandler of the oity had a steamer and her cargo of coal seized by the government in some freak of fear or greed. But the English minister called' the attention of the government to the " mistake," and it was rectified impart. The steamer was returned, though the coal stands charged up to profit and lose. Next to a steady government and security for property,':: Montevideo needs a harbor. The immense width of the river makes this a neoesaity. Schemes aro now on foot and oentraote are let for the completion by 1890 of an adequate breakwater. If this proves a euccesa it will add greatly to the impor- tance of the city. The enbllo buildings, or buildings in whioh the public is interest- ed, are of a good order, Clambering up the spiked pole from the storm -tossed tug, we made our way through a company of smiing Mende, with Dr. T. B. Wood at their head, who had waited for some hours at the mold to meet us,' It was refreshing to receive the hearty greetings of these people whose names as Christian workers had long been famillet in the mission offioee at home. We were never more grateful for small favors than for our knowledge, lees limited than we feared, of the Spanish lan- guage, which enabled us to catch the kindly heart-throbs of these strangers.

Francis Jeffrey DIckens, who died at Moline, ILL, recently, was a son o f the late Charles Dickens, the novelist, and was born January 15, 1844, The cause of his death was paralysis of the heart, He died at the residence of Dr. Jamieson, who had met him in Canada only about a year ago, and who invited him to visit his place on hie resigning in March hie commission as captain in the . Canadian Northwest Mounted police, a position ho had held for eleven yeare. His funeral servloe was held in the congregational ohuroh at Rock Island on a Sunday, and hie remains were pleated in a vault to await the in- structions of his friends. Capt. Dickens was named after Frannie Jeffrey, the cele- brated Scotch critic. At one time he joined the police in India and served in the Pun- janb. A sunstroke there made it neces- sary for him to try some other olimate, and he went to Canada. At the entbreak of the halfbreed and Indian insurreotion, under Louie Rid, he was in command at Fort Pitt, whence he retreated down the Saekatohcwan with his men to Bettleford, In so doing ho saved the women and children of the fort from Indian atrocities. His last command was at Battleford, N. W. T. Frightful Waste. Consumption earths off its thoneande of victims every year.
