school children of France. it is known
among tlic_conittton people as prrh‘ru’u‘,
and is Contagious. It consists in an
abrasion in the corners of the month,
which be onto little ulcers and sometimes
bleed; it lasts from two to four Weeks. ,
The dcs 'ription given of it corresponds;
to what is cmnntunly called in this eouns

and it is surmised that they have been

tlhnce. to the edge of a cup, and thus:
all who uscd the cup became atl'ectcd.
l‘ancsso: Lemaistre has examined the;
5,500 children who attend the thirty-,
two schools of Limoges, and has found 3

the disease. Although Professor Le-

taut. vBut IN than two hours previous, at
9:27 P. n., another an! a. very severe shock
was felt. ( hm of the sensations of the shock
was a shower of hot stones in the vicinity of
a newspaper chic-c. There were no premoni-
tion; The shock came with a startling rum-
ble like a succession of rapid detonations, not
quite so loud as these of last night. but more
prolonged and accompanied by more vibra-r

the universal testimony that most of
