C., if 1 remember might, made some inquiries of you or any i one, legnrding n form of disease by common . consent termed "Milk Sickness." llonsk-j ed for some information .is to the, cause of, this distressing malrtdy which has so far! proven itself one of the opprobia of profes- ! sion. It is my fortune to lie nblo to state j without hazard, to a certainty, the Cause or 1 causes of this disease. I have waited thus ; long, hoping some one would take the trou- j hie and offer some information, but 1 have seen none. Tho number which contained the request has been misplaced by me some- ! how ; I am, therefore, not quite certain as ; to the locality of the wiiter The agents that cause this disease are J Copper and Arsenic. The foimet* found in ! a state of nature as an oxide nr sulphuret, , or in the form of its native salts, the eurbon- j ate, sulphate, or nrseniate. The latter, too, [ as found in mineral recrions. usually assoein- ! tod villi oilier metals, and its salts impreg- j uating the earth to a greater or less exlenl. j The following circumstances gave origin to the discovery, Some parts of the fertile , Slate of Illinois, nfi'ord often in summer no ! stock water. The suffering stock will greedily suck empty every lilile puddle or track, or nnv place wherein water miy he gathered. It so chanced at this season of the year, that in the little excavations 1< ft by ! some quarrymen who were getting out rock, j small quantities of water would ".seep," und the cattle on llieir way home from the rich but dry praiiies, sought out and eagerly drank the water. The leadini? one of the lier<J nn.d her yenrling arrived first at the | place, consumed pretty mu<:h all by the j lime the others got up. As the cow wfts j owned by one of the workmen, she was no- j ticed by him with some satisfaction nt her tie ink. Hut by the following morning the } cow and yearling were seized already with the "trembles," and in a few days expired, , wliereas none of the balancc of the herd suf- | fered. The rich milk obtained from her | ample bag was given to the children, nnd all of them had attacks of the "Milk-Sick." i The observation of the owner of tin- cow nt the quarry, led to n further investigation.? Those over sanguine for their own interest ' hi their non belief, furni^lied sheep, calves ! and colts to test the water, and every one | perished. A pain and itffan this whs icpeat ed.and each time the animal would he seiz ed with the peculiarly characteristic symp- ' loms of lhat disease, and die with the trem- ; liles. Some of the water was tlien obtain- j ed, and sent to n thorough chemist for anal- j ysis, who pronounced it to contain Copper and Arsenic mainly, livery symptom which rrr.vha this dis- ; ease will bear out the truth of litis discovery, ..ii/iu jjiii iiuiiiiiii v in i lie unman suo|eci.~ - , Tlie poisonous effects of copper and arsenic , rorrefpond entirely lo ihc symptoms of that i disease. The effects of arsenic, it is too well known, are an interminable s(retching I with a distressed, anxious expression on tin- ; countenance, indicative of almost complete collapse. Those of copper are not unlike in their action upon ihe gustro-intestinal mucous membrane, besides a muscular weakness amounting to u p ir.ilvtic condition of rhe entire muscular system, as if all nervous influence was cut oft", with excessive prostrntion and great tremor. Tl y symptoms of the milk-sickness correspond exact ty with the effects of these agents upon the human system. It I recollect rightly, the writer from N. said thnl in his section the poisonous , spots were known with that degree of certainty, that in many places, to prevent cattle from feeding on them, they had been fenced in. I will venture to assure him that if lie will tnke the trouble to excavate a i-hallow pit in which during the /light some water may collect, nnd have it subjected to ] chemical tosts or nnalysirf, &ome form of the salts of copper, nnd perhaps nrsenic will he found. In travelling through fi section #>f Illinois, Romclime since, and while slop | pirtg for dinner, a district wns pointed out to me 11 s being much afflicted v.ith the "milk f.ick." On reauniiiig^my journey, I shortly after rode into a creek and happened to notice some coal jutting out from the bank. I at onco procured a piece, and on breaking it apurt, found traces of copper all through it I give you these fact9, Messrs. Editors, so that they may receive wider circulation, and also that observations at large may be made to either corroborate or relute. I trust that every man so situnted as to test tliea* revelations, wilt do so and publish the ?esnft?, and thereby contribute not only to the stores of science, but be instrumental in allnviaiing the miseries and diseases of his fellow mortals. Because when the causo oi a (iisonso c?n ho come al will) certainty, a course of treatment enn be devis* i thai nusl prove curative. 1?AAC I luTClll N30X, M. D. hvansville, la.

The great hail storm which occurred nl Washington, the Federal Metropolis, on \ Sunday afternoon last, has been referred to in the Jjjrjirfss.

The destruction of glass may lie estimated by the count made in some prominent institutions. viz : The Government Green House tit the foot of the Capitol, is a complete wieck ; the United Stales Hotel has lost | J00 panes of glass, and sustained a damage of some $300; ihe new Government Armory has lost eveiy pane of glass on its north westerly front ; the .sky lights at the Capitol jj of an inch thick, were cracked and broken. Rev. Mr. ('mother's church, corner of Fifth and I stieets, lost some 200 panes of ybiss. the tin roof of the church was also badly bruised. Mr. Cocoran'a green house was also badly shattered. It is estimated that the cost, of the Government and Corporation of repairing breakages upon the street lamps will not be less than $'2,000. The Durnett House lost (KJ punt's ui yuiss ; iwis. j\iiilj s, i' si reel ?'JU ; Triniiy Church some fftOO or $000 worth of stained glass. Capl, Birch lost 120 pines of glass from liis residence near ihe steamboat what f. The entire number of panes of (f|a?s broken is differently estimated ut fiom fifty to sixty thousand. Tin question as to who is to pay the damage done to private houses, landlords or tenants, has been raised and is discussed with the earnestness generally elicited by questions that touch the pockets of tlie contestants. The extent of the storm was not very large, but where it extended the destruction was general.? Several houses were unroofed* nnd fences and tiees levelled throughout the city. Twenty minutes was about the duration of this storm, and in this brief timemnnv of ilie streets had become completely overflown ; but during-its continuance the fall of hail, t he demolition of tho window jjlass, the rattle upon the roofs, against doors and oilier objects, the running to and fro of cattle upon ilie streets, and falling of lt*nvo6 and boughs, together with the violence of the winds, the thunder and lightning, produced a feeling of terror and consternation among portions of the inmates of almost every house.
