At the sitting of the Academy of Science, in Paris, M. M. Bauphietay and Adelde Roseville, surgeons of great distinction, addressed to the Academy of Medieine a detailed note on the Animalcule, or small animals resembling lice, which are found in all the Cancers that they have exam-ined. These gentlemen have sought the means which are best fitted to destroy these Animalcule, and their experiments have led them to recor-mend the following different articles as washes by which these small animals may be destroyed: Brandy, or the Tincture of Iodine, or Concentrated Solutions of the Double Chloride of Mercury, or the Chloride of Gold, or of Arsenic, or of the Salts of Copper, or of the Nitrate of Silver: each, or any one of these articles, will kill these small animals, medically called Animalcula, in the short time of twenty minutes, or half an hour at most 😱

This unfortunately is only a theory, and in practice is ansuccessful. The cause of Cancer is unknown. New York State has established a laboratory for the purpose of studying the disease, and there are many individuals working to determine the cause; but, up to the present, nono has been successful.
Miny lumps oceur, in the breasts of women and in the usual seats for Cancer, which are not really Cancer at all; these are the kind of patients
*quacks " and like cults are pleased to get hold of; for they tell these people that they have a Cancer and the little lump goes away by itself; the "quack" claims the credit for the eure.
