STUDY OF THE MICROBE.
A Minute and Technical Narra loa of Ilia Bzpsri-
taenta w.th the Cholera Patients, B'ginning
With the OrlKlnal 0??rm or the Cholera
and Carrying It on Throagb.
Philadelphia; Auguit 27.???An important
ronlcrcnce upon cholera has just been held in
Derlin, at the office of the imperial board of
health; an abstract of the proceedings of
Which ia now appearing in the Medical News
of thii city. Dr. Koch exhibited microscopic
fcpccimcns of the cholera bacillus, and he
demonstrated the method of its preparation
and cultivation. Regarding bis recent investi
gations, he stated that microscopical exami
nation of the intestine and its contents re
vealed a considerable invssion of bacteria, oc
curring partly within the tubular glands,
partly between the epithelium and the base-
meut membrane, and in tome parts deeper
(till. Then he found cases in which,
besides bacteria in one definite
and constant form, there were others
also accumulated within and around
the tubuifr glands of various
prune short and thick, others very lino, and he
ooon concluded that ho had to do bore with the
2>rimary invasion of iho pathogenic bsdiJi,
which, as it were, prepared tissues for the en
trance of non-psthogenie forms, .just as he had
observed iu nccrostie, diphtheritic changes in
the intestinal mucosa, and in typhoid ulcers.
IHE CIIASACTESiaTICS DKSCRIRKU.
He then proceeded to describe the characters
of this bacterium. It ia a mailer than the
tubercle bacillus, being only about half or, at
meat, two-thirds the size of the latter, but
touch more plump, thicker aud slightly
curved. As a rule, tho curvo ia no more than
that oi a comma, (.) but sometimes it assumes
a semi-circular ahapo, and he has seen it
forming a double curve iike an "a.??? These
two variations from the normal being is sug
gestive of a junction of two individual
bacilli. In the cultures there al
ways appears a remarkably froe
d< vclonmeut of the romma-ahapea bacilli,
These bacilli often grow out to form loug
threads, not in the manner of the anthrax ba
cilli, lior with a simple undulating form, but
assuming tbe shape of delicate, long spirals,
corkscrew shape, reminding one very forcibly
of the spirocbieU of relapsiug fever. 1 ndoe<l,
it would be difficult to distinguish tho two if
(dared side by side. On account of this devel
opmental change, he doubted if the nhofora
orgsuisin should be ranked with haceillii it is
rather a transitional form between bacillus
and spirillum. Possibly it is true the spirit-
Dm, )K>rtions of which appear in the comma
shape, much as in other spirilla,!, g.: which
spirilla do not always form complete spirals,
but consist only of more or less curved rods.
THE INrLVMOR or TKMNCRATURK.
Tho comma baceilll thrive best at tempera
ture between 01 Fahrenheit, and 104 Fahren
heit, but they are not very sensitivo to low
temjierAturee, their growth not being preven
ted until fljft or 86 degree* is roachtd.
In this respect they agree with
anthrax bacilli. Dr.Kocli made au experiment
t" ascertain whether a very low temperature
not merely checked tbeir development, but
killed them, and subjected the comma bacilli
to a temperature or 14 degrees Fahrenheit,
They were then completely frozen, but yet re
tained vitality, growing in golatine after
wards. Dr, Koch found that the addition of an
aqueous solution of iodine (1 in 4,000) to a
meat infusion, in tho proportion oil in
20, did not in tho least intorlore with
the growth of bacilli in that medium, lie did
Dot pursue this line of iuqulry, seeing that iu
prartico largo quantities of iodine than that
could not bo given. Alcohol first checks the
??1> vclopmmt of the comma bacilli whon it is
mixed with nutriment fluid, in tbo proportion
of-otic in ten, a degreo of concentration which
Tender* it impraelienblelor treatment. Com
mon salt was added to the extent of two per
edit, without influencing the growth of the
bacilli. Sulpbnto of iron in the pro*
jxirtion of two per cent checks this
giuwtb, probably by preripitatiue albumi
nati s iroiu fluids, and |>os#fbly also by Us
acid reection. Certainly it does not sssrn to
ifsvt any spec/flo disfufecting action. I. e., in
destroying bacilli. Among the other sub
stances which prevent tho growth of tho eo n-
Dim bacilli may be mentioned: Alum in *alu-
lions of strength of 1 in 100) camphor, 1 in
800) carbolic seid, 1 in 400j oil of poppermint,
1 in 2.000) sulphate of copper. 1 In 2,500 fa
remedy much employed,* but now much would
really be needed merely to hinder the growth
of bacilli in the intestine)) quinine, 1 in 6,000.
aud sublimate 1 in 100,000.
TUR VITALITY OV TUR BACILLI.
In contrast with the foregoing moasurea
for itrevcnting the growth of these bacilli lathe
striking fact that they are readily killed hy
drying. This fact is proved by merely drying
a small drop of material containing the ba
cilli on the cover of a glass, and then placing
this over some of tbe fluid on the glass slide.
Thus it was found that, although vitality was
retained, or dejutidiug largely b upon
4 be number ol bacilli for a short
time, yet tbe withdrawal of tbe nutrient fluid
hr an hour or even less, often sufficed, and it
never happened that the baoilli retained vi
tality after a deprivation lasting twenty-four
liours. These results would seem to point to
Ibe tact that tbe comma bacillus duos not,
like the organisms of anthrsK and vaccinia,
pass into a reeling statu by drying, and if so,
It is one of tbs most important facts in the
rt'udogy ??r cholera. Much, however, re
mains to be done. eepeclally
yvilh regard to the soiled Imeu of
lhe rational treatment of most diseases,
end especially of infectious diseases, cannot
be adopted until tbeir cause and nature are
known. Rut even yet tbe discovery of cholera
bfiotUuc is important, as furniahing an aid in
a diagnosis which would Jscilitate the detec
tion of the first case occurring in a district,
and the adoption of measures to prevent its
spread. Knowing also the nature and proper
ties or the bacillus, and especially
the readmes" with which it is killed by
drying, the right direction of propbyloxia i
assured, and the lavish expenditure of disin
feefanls checked, so that there will not be i
repetition of whnt happened in the last cpi-
dimie, When millions of gallons wero poured
into I he gutters and sewers without the slight
ed need. Even therapeutically, tho knowl
edge of the comma bacillus may be of value.
A diagnosis will be possible in mild cases, and
in the early stages of tho disease when treat
mint is of the most avail.
Aches and pains are killed by St. Jacobs
Oil, tbo astonishing conqueror of pain.

A PHYSICIAN'S TESTIMONY.
I was called to see Mr. John Pearson, who
waa confined to his bed with what appeared
to be consumption of the wont form. As
all of bis family had died of that dread dis
ease (except his half brother), his death
was regarded as certain and toon. After
exhausting all the remedies, I finally as a
last resort, sent for a bottle of Brower's
Lung Restoror and it acted like magic. He
continued the use of It for some time and
has been fully restored to health. Bo far
as I could discover, he had consumption,

In 1881, while sewing on a machine, my
wife waa taken with a severe pain In her
aide, which was soon followed by???aemor-
rages from her lungs, severe cough and fe
ver, and could neither cat or sleep, and In
a few weeks was reduced to a mere skele
ton. Her stomach refused to retain any
food, and the physician thought one of her
lungs waa entirely gone. At a final consul
tation of two physicians her case was pro
nounced hopeless. I tried Brewer???s Lung
Restorer by advice of one of the physi
cians, and ihe began to improve after the
third dose. She continued the medicine,
and to now iu excellent health, and is

Local???After a spell of uninterrupted dullness
the cotton year has been brought to a close. Mon
day will give us a fresh starting point, which must
soon be followed by general activity throughout
the land. The monotony and duUness of the past
few months must certainly give place to tbe com
ing business that to now growing, and new Ufe>nd
animation will again enliven our ever moving and
ambitious young city. But the cotton season to
not torenougb advanced to furnish much material
for criticism. Still the seasons, until very recently,
have Ucn most encouraging, and the outlook, In
the fare of all the drawbacks and disadvantages that
have been thus far brought to our notice, are most
flattering to an abundant yield tbe coming year.
As t# Atlanta, she is always equal to the emergen
cy .and with her Increased facilities stands ready to
meet every demand that eon possibly be made of
her. With three gigantic compnaaet aud a score or
so of the best fire-proof warehou-**^her numerous
railroads and improved facilities for handling cot
ton, we are wlUUg to assert most positively thu
Atlanta a* a cotton market to Inferior to no city
either north or sooth.
As to oor receipts, they have steadily increased
for the past few yean, and the new territory inter-
tccted by the new railroads must aweU the ruaalpts
for the coming year far beyond the figures hereto
fore reached. Receipts for the year past amount to
|46,if5 bales, agafnqt 141,750 bales tost year nnd
216,000 bales for the year preceding. Our several
cotton mills now in operation consume their pro
portion of thto. Middling cotton to held to-day at
10%e, as against 9J v c same date last year and 12)40
for the same time in 1882. Tbo present state of the
market to quiet. Several bales of new cotton bare
been received, aud our cotton men are now roady
to take core of all that may bo entrusted to them.
At the close to-day actual stock was taken,which
resulted In finding only 997 bales in warehouses, of
which o69 bales werqhcld for spinners, leaving 413
bales on the market, Wc quote cotton os follows:

NEW YORK, AugurtSO???The total visible* supply
