T-e Daily News. THURSDAY MORNINO, MAY 17, 1866. THK tlllll.EUA. ti I 3b the Editor of The Daily News : Sin-I notice in your paper of to-day a review of a Tract on Cholera, recently published hy my Bolf, in which the writer has unfortuuately made Borne gravo miatakot?; and although I do not in tend to allow myself to ho drawn into controver sy, I think it my duty to correct a fow of the moat palpable osea. I would premise that no ono is responsible for errors in tho pamphlot but myself, and if there aro morits they bolong not to me, but to those holding high positions nu teachers iu tho medical trodd. " Quien" must oxcuse me if I pass over tho *. twaddle" about military authority, etc., as I do not consider it worthy of comment, and at onco proceed to correct some of his medical blundors. He states that the formula) givou in the pamphlet are " unscientific aud empirical," and that " he is Burpriaod to soo Ohlorodyno recommended by an enlightened physician of the present day*," and yet these formulai aro preBcribod and recommend ed by medioal writers whose authority no well read physician in this or any other city would think of questioning. If " Galen" will tako the trouble to eonsalt a work ontheSoionoo and Prac tico of Medicine, edition of 1866, by WILLIAM AIT V_N, M. D., Edin. Professor o? Pathology in the Army Medical Behool, Corresponding Member of the.Royal Imperial Bocioty of Physicians of Vien na, and of the Society of Medicino and Natural History at Dresden, and of the Imperial Bociety of Medicino of Constantinople, late Pathologist attached to the Military Hospitals of the British troopB at Scutari, and formerly Demonstrator of Anatomy in tho Uuiveraity of Glasgow-ho will find, on page 502, vol. I, that tho author uot only advocates the use of " Chlorodyne" in vomiting, and for the purpose of allaying irritation of the stomach, but gives a formuhu for its preparation of greater strength than that contained in the pamphlet, and prescribes of this preparation live ' to ten minuniH, i. e. 10 to 20 drops as tho dose. "Galon" also seems to be ignorant of the fact that the terms "Theriaca" and "Thcraicaj" are commonly used by physicians in their prescrip tions to Bignify molasses, or, aa the English physi cians, call it, "treacle." Yet such is the fact, as he will find on consulting tho work above men tion&d. He will also find, on consulting United Btates Dispensatory, oditiou of 1858, pago GG2, that "Theriaca" is an officinal synonym of mo lasses. (Seo also "Squire's Companion to the Pharmacopoeia,"-pago 58, and the "Lmdou Lan cet" for June 11th, 18tM.) Consequently, my uso of the term in the formula in question is correct, "Galen's" very scientific account of tho plant "Teucrium Ohamoodrya" notwithstanding. He pays a poor compliment to tho intelligent drug gists of Charleston when he iutimates to the peo ple that they aro incapablo of understanding or preparing correctly the formula) given in the pam phlet referred to. I have conversed with many of them, aud take pleasure in stating that I have found none so ignorant. They are better read than "Galen" in.the Diepenaatory of the United States. He also objeote to the use of Hydrocyanic Acid, from the fact that when taken in an over-dose it is a "deadly poison ;" yet the druggists of Charleston find it necessary to keep a supply of this article on hand, to fill prescriptions sent to them by the physic ians of this city, and in this way it passes into the hands of patients or their friends for administration, and is administered with good effects by thom, when they carefully follow the directions given by their medical ad visor. Poisonous doses of Chloroform, Morphine, Laudanum, Sugar of Load, etc., have been taken, and death has been the result; hut what physician, for this reason,, would consent to banish these valuable medicines from the Pharmacopoia? Chlo rodyne, although it docs contain Hydrocyanic Acid, may he given as safoly as any of the above named articles, when proper directions are literally obeyed ; without this, none of them are safe. A late medical journal, received since the publication of the pamphlet, informs us that Chlo rodyne was administered, iu tho city of Paria, to sixty patients suffering from cholera, all of whom recovered ' But, what will probably shock "Galen," we are also informed that in all these cases the Ohlorodyno was administered by a lady, the wifo of a clergyman ofthat city. For the enlightenment of "Galen," I will state that we prescribed tho Chlorodyue Mixture in cholera for the purpose of preventing cramps, checking the vomiting, and allaying irritation of the stomach, for which I have found nothing so weil adapted. But, after all, I consider Hydro chlorate of Ammonia tho sheot-nnchor in treat ment of cholera. It has proved successful in my hands-far moro so than any other drug-and I trust I shall not be accused of egotism when I state that my experience in cholera dates from May, 1832. j hope the respectable physicians of Charles ton, if cholera should unfortunately visit us, will give the "treatment" I have recommended a fair trial, and then report fairly the results. I would not have it understood, however, that I deprecate criticism; on the contrary, I feel thankful to "Galen** for bringing the pamphlet so prominent ly before the public Finally, with rogard to the uso of the word "BUS. pension," I can only say, I mean suspension, not "suppression," because I think it the most correct term to express the fact that the functions of the kidneys are suspended during the cold stage oi cholera, although I admit that iu very severe oi latal oases the urine may bo totally suppressed. TH03. SIM, M. D. Medical Director's Office, May 15th. . ? ? The London correspondent of the Philadelphii Gazelle says that on Easter Monday, when tin Bois de Boulogne races carno off, NAPOLEON ant his Empress drove in sep?ralo carriages, but tin point de mise ot all observers was the carriagi which contained tho Duke and the Duchess di Mouchy (formerly Princess ANN MURAT), whosi first appearance in public since their marriagi this might be said to bo. The Duohess was look ing exceedingly pretty and smiling, and all eye were fixed on her, the carriage proceeding ii truly royal style at a foot's pace, for the benefit o the gazers on either side of the avenue Wit] very good tasto, she has assumed her husband' title and dropped her own ; and has succeeded, b her pleasing, unaffectod manners and lovely face in conciliating to herself the sympathies of th Faubourg St. Germaine of her husband's family at first supposed to be averse to tho alliance. --- . a) ?

One Hundred Yetar? of Science. One of the most eloquent men in Franco is IU. )UMAB, senator, raembor of tho Institute, ex-min uter of instruction, professor at the Sorbonne and College do France. When he rises to address tho kudience, there is a thrill of expectation and a lushed anxiety to catch the words that aro to fall rom his lips. Ho has an entire and thorough .onimand of the niceties of the French language, tua added to this a marvellous familiarity with the ?rowth and present standpoint of science, lio ;ently, at the distribution of prizes awarded by ;ho Folstcchnio Association of Paris, li. DUMAS iavo a sketch of tho condition of BcieutiSo kjiow ledgo a hundred years ?co, and compared it with the progress of tho prosont day. Wo translate a part of his address : In 1705 tho employment of the forces of nature w" limited to two motors, wiud-mills and water mills. Heat had not been converted into a uni versal mechanical power-the steam engine was unknown. Tho sun marked in ita daily returns the hours in the lifo of man, but Niepco and Da l? mimi had not made use of its light as tho docile instrument of art-photography liad not yot en tered into the imagination of man. Electricity had neither given us tho Voltaic pile, which decomposes the most obstinate compounds, nor the galvanoplastie art, which places the me tals without tho aid of fire, nor the electric light, nor the eloctrio telegraph, ono of the models of modern times, due to the genius of Ampere; nor the formidable Ruhmkorff oil, the rival of gun powder, and the just object of highest reward. Chemistry had no existence. Lavosier had not yet immortalized his name by the discoveries which explain the reciprocal rela tions of matter composing the surfaca of the earth, with the same clearness that Newton's laws afford the key to the movements of the stars which adorn the beavons. Earth, air and water had not been decomposed; the nature of tho ruo'als and that of carbon was unknown; the acids, alkalis, and salts now employed in so many arts, then only offered obscure problems; the cause of combustion wan ignored: the existence of gas distinct from atmospheric air, had not been determined; the pr?xima to prinoiplea of plants and animale had not been di fined; thtir respira tion waa a mystery, their nutrition an enigma; agriculture was a blind (and devastating praoticey ruining in turn the different countriee / of tb*? globe, and not permitting to any people to lix itself in pormanenco to any spot. The movements, the changes arid the transfor mation which affect the material of the surface of the globe and metamorphose it according to times and places, bad no signification for our an cestors. The circuit always in action, which nourishes the plant at the expense of the soil, the animal at the expense of the plant, and which re turns to the soil through the animal that which it has lost ; those harmonies of nature which our commonest farmer now understands, did not enter into the imagination of the profoundest philoso pher a century ago. Oeology was only inspired romance; the crust of the o .i th had not been explored; tbo history of its formation had not yet been writ len; it was then unknown that in tho fossil remains of a rock ia coutaiued the infallible story of its origin; that in tho history of tho development of tho globe ia re vealed the relative ages of the mountains and the clue to the former condition of the Alps and Pyre nees and their rival chains. Thousands of plants had been collected and named, but Jussieu had Dot yet classified them into, natural families; Cnvior had not applied tin same laws to the animal kingdom. One could no1 then embrace in one view tho ensemble of nature, from ephemeral lichen, which at the summit o the Alps or on the confines of tho pole, mark Un lust palpitations of life, np to the giants of th? iropical forests, whoso existence dates buyout historic timos; from the equivocal microscopu productions, the last argument of the partisan! of spontaneous generation, up to man created ii the image of (Joel. Ooo could not, thus guided li* Cuvier or Brogniart, mount from age to ego, re* constructing in their forms, their aspect, and evei their habitations, the animals and plants whicl havo preceded the advent of man upon earth, ant which conduct ua through epoch on epoch, bael to the moment when life first nianiiested itacl upon our globe. To-day man bas acquired the right to say: Mat ter, and the forces which it obevs, contain no ae crete which I do not know, or shall not be able at some future period, to discover. The histor of the earth has no longer any mystery for me: am preaont at its earliest ages; I reconstruct th beings whom it haa nourished; I know the precis dato of tho transformations upon its service. M eye penetrates tbo profundity of space; I assigi to eaoh star its place in the orbit in which it mun move; I weigh the aun; I analyze the aubatance o which it is composed as if it could be placed i my crucible, ana I can aay of what elementa th? ; stars consist whloh decorato the vaults of heavei . even those the light from which requires ages t travel to the focos where the observer perform their diraootion upon our earth; I play with th f forces of nature; I transform the light into heal the heat into light, electricity into magnetierr magnetism into electricity, ?.nil all of these form of activity into mechanical power: I couver one compound into another; I Imitate all th process of nature dead, and the majorit of those of nature living : I render at will tfa earth fruitful or sterile ; I give to it or take froi It the power to nourish the plant. Life is an ope i book, where, from the embryo egg to the death t I the animal, I read without obscurity the rolo < the blood which circulates ; that of the nea which beats, and of the lungs which respire ; tin of the musel?s which obey ; of the nerves whic convey tho ordor ; of the brain which commande of the stomach which digests ; of the chyle wbic regenerates. In une, I apply to my use all ti forces and all the gifts of nature. This sketch by a master hand, reveals to us ti extraordinary progress of eoioneo during a lim dred ye*re, and shows how quietly we appropria I each addition to our knowledge, without takln II into account the long years of toll which mu have preceded its full dovolopment. If tho ne hundred yeara Bhould show equal results, it ia io possible to predict what limit shal 1 be set to ti progress of the world. ??a TOE GALLANT TEXAS BBIOADE.-The old Tex brigade that fought ita way to glory thron/, twenty-eight battles, always did its duty.

Thore has never been in May a greater variety n tho fashions thau now. Many of tho styles irhich wore prominent during the past year aro lot yet discarded, though thoy aro gradually .olding to the nowor and moro fanciful designs of ho fashiou makers, who aro ovor on tho alert for omethiug charming, gay or occentric. Tho pre ont stvles aro nearly all attractive The prevail ng colors aro bluo, green, lavender, gray and :ori8o in different shades. White is also quito a avorito, and ia much used for trimming hounets. ?Vhon contrasting colora aro woru they uro usually io blended as to liarnioni/.o perfectly, and havo ii 'ory pleaoiug effect without being showy-a re ined tanto always discerning elegance in richness nul unobtrusive simplicity, rather than iu dis >lay. ? novol proposai, and ono somewhat startling to ho Parisian ladies, has been mado in Franco. It 8, that a society bo formed for tho purpoao of pitt ing a stop to tho extravagant stylo of dross so ?.encrally adopted there. Ono of tho priucipal -ules of tho society will bo that each member shall pledge herself to dress with elegant eimpli :ity. That it will bo successful eau not bo conti lently anticipated; but the hint ought to bo use ful to tho women of our own country. . BONNETS. The styles of bonnets in tho present month are the Empire, Function and Pamelia or Gipsy. The contest for popular favor is between the Panch?n and the Gipsy. This Fanuhon is not, howover. exactly Uko that of last year, being smaller, and in some respects prottier. An effort waa recently made to revive crowns, and so rule it out, but tho attempt proved futile. The Fanchon has many admirers, and the number is increasing. A fall of narrow lace, an occasional spray of flowers, or a viuo of green leaves resting upou tho hair, has a far more pretty effect than any high, stiff crown, however artistically constructed. A letter from Paris sayB that the bonnets recently worn there wero almost rnade of flowers of oue kind or an other, fastened upon tulle, and entirely covoring the triangular Fanchon which is so much in vogue. One bonnet was entirely of wall-flowers, those above being yellow and orange, while a few uuder the rim had a reddish tint. A ranch pret tier bonnet was composed of the lily of the valley, the crystal dew-drop falling on tho forehead, and on the hair at the back of tho head. Another was formed of white daisies, aud the dress worn was almost exclusively white, rolieved by narrow black stripes. Thoro is a tendency to over-trimming, most of tho bonnets this season being so formed as to re quire but little trimmiug. Tue houuots are very small, and tho straws aro mostly in fancy braids that need no decoration ; but an nuusual number of adornments have beou introduced, such as chains, strings of beads, huttons, cameos, buckles, clasps, and a mixturo of jet aud straw. Wheu to these aro added lace, flowers, ribbon and a veil, wo seek in vain a glimpse of the bonnet ; itis com pletely hidden. Tho gipsy is much worn, especially by quito young ladies, and will, doubtless, remain fash ionable. It is very becoming to a pretty face, but a faco on which time has left a decided impress, or one that is unattractive, is sadly out of place under tho flowers aud dewdrops of a gipsy hat. DRESSES. Tho styles for ovening dresseB aro numerous. Instead of the tinsel ornaments worn through the winter, dresses are sometimes decorated with flowers for public occasions. This is a European style. The bodies aro trimmed with a fringe made of flowers; and in placo of sashes flowers havo been used to loop up tulle skirts, while haw thorne branches with flowers and Bonniton chains adorn the head. A novel design for an evening dress Is in two contrasting colors, as of rose and white. The skirt is made of ali ernato breadths of the two colors, eacn breadth being out to a point, so that there is no fulness at the top. Tho seams are covered with white puffing, black lace running through the centre, and there is a wide ruche around the bottom, edged with rose satin. Morning dresseB are made of uno cambric, or pique, in white or very light delicate colors. They are sometimes gored when made of pique, but a very pretty morning dress is of white cambrio, the skirt tucked, and sometimes embroidered. A short jacket, also embroidered, is worn over it, making a neat and elegant morning robe. Suits are very much worn during the present month. They are made of summer poplin, goat bair cloth or mob air in delicate shades, such as lavender or pearl-gray and light chines. The skirt is usually partly or entirely gored, and over it is worn either a baequine, talma or round cloak with the coachman's cape, as may suit the fancy of tho wearer. But the basquiuo is more used iii suits than any other form of cloak. Riding habits are made either in gray or dark colors, the boddico beiog in the closo-fltting coat at.le, with a collar and lappols that roll back from a tucked chemisette. The short skirt is trimmed with black galloon or velvet ribbon, and jot but tons, wit'? an imitation pocket, and vest in mili tary stylo, and the plain coat sleovo has a mili tary ciiff. The dress has straps, to raise it on dismounting. CLOAK8. BasquineB made of purplo and white cloth which aro extremely elegant, but were formerly only eeon at sea-bathing places-havo been worn in Paris. Thoso made of purple aro decorated with black braid and jet beads, arranged iu graceful enraya upon the basque, shoulders and sleeves. Those of whito are not so highly orna mented-gimp ornaments are interspersed with tbo braiding pattern. The basquine is the prevailing style of cloak, not only in suits, but in black silk. Still there is a hesitancy with many about cutting -any very costly fabric into tho tight fitting baBquine, as this garment has been so long worn that it is > thought, a change of some kind is before long in * evitable. Most of the basqnines are not now Btraight around the edge, hut aro cut either iu round or square scollops. Thoso with three points are considered "siyliah"-one point falling at the back and one at each side, ?eep talmas having a broad fold at the top of the back, and confined some inches below the neck band by ribbons, are 1 among the new garments. ' A novel teaturo of dress, which will probably be t introduced this season in New York, is color band embroidery on shawls. The fabrics oi which the work is done are China crepe, French crepe, fine Cashmere, etc., and upon white oi black grounds. A border is made of flowers a ut loaves in their natural colors. Lace patterns in t Itussian stit*h are sometimes interspersed witt. tbeso flowers, and the edge is finished with a riel silk fringe ; or the border is made of black oi white lace, or a mixture of both. MISCELLANEOUS. f The hair is worn a trifle higher at the back o the head than it has recently been. Curls am crimps are still fashionable, and the coils ar ranged in different ways, are much worn. Ii Elace of velvet bandlet s, moire and groB grain rib ona aro used, and the streamers at the back o e the head are longer than ever. Gold bands ar? .,, also worn around the head and gleam out fron tiers of cprls. In silks a new shade is worn. It ?e a lilao pink t and is becoming to most complexions. A ne* e material called Chambray foulard has become ex .v tremely fashionable. It is a fabric between th Chambray gauze and taffetas in texture, and fall in regular graceful folds. In pearl-gray it has th i appearance of being woven with silken thread? it It is wcrn in stripes, in whito and ceriso, whit it and blue, white and mauve, or gray, with colore rt stripes. It is said white and scarlet will be th it Parisian summer mixtures, and white foular :h boddices are trimmed with those colors. i ; Garibaldis in white muslin are trimmed with ih new material in cotton that looks at first glanc io like black ribbon and Cluny lace. Boino of thes waists are composed of muslin, lace and embroic 10 ory, and are out square at the t hroaj; othora crot like a neckerchief, and are made up of narro ** tucks and lace. te Hitherto the laces in uso have been only blac " and white.
