After the lone- nsa of to- Daoco oy some of these persons, their sight becomes slowly, painlessly, steadily cloudy; a smokiness not explainable by the approach of age. When this poison commences to act. upon tbe visual organ all sm rounding objects are seemingly be mggeu. not oniy is me street lull or thin smoae, hut the room is also veiled in a mibt, both distant and near objects being somewhat obscured. Nothing is sba-rDlv defined to snob an eye. Small letters fade entirely from view and only large print oan be made out. ' 1 . "While tbe power of vision haB been steadily declining, the eye ball has at no tame lost any of its natural brightness. It win compare favorably .with any healthy eye and in tbia connection each portion of tha Visual organ; will v bear the - sharp- congested. The corner is dear, the pupil acts well, no pain nor grittiness has been at any time induced by attempt to use theL organ, so that an outside examination revests absolutely nothing to explain tbe increasing detect In vision. Tbe skillful use of the ophthalmoscope in recent cases to inspect tbe interior of -the eye-ball brings to light no pathological lesson The contents of the eye chamber seem in eve ry respect normal. The media are per fectly healthy, tbe lens as clear as crys tal, no clouding can be observed in the aqueous or vitreous' fluids, the choroid and retina give their regular healthy re flex. While the examination, however carefully made, of an eye in which the Bight is quite misty, reveals absolutely nothing, the very absence ot physical signs indicates a nerve poisoning, a di minution in tbe sensaliveness of xhe cer- vous structures, with as yet no tangible changevia-tne physical condition of either retina or'Vrotic nerve which the observer can detect. a "The amount of tobacco necessary for producing this olouding of tbe eight, and the le Birth of time required by the con stant use of tobacco before! tbe trouble shows itself, are very unstable factors. have, but in one small case, seen oeiec tive sight Induced by excessive chewing of tobacco, the poisoning comes far more commonly from smoking. I have never noticed the peculiar disease recognized 'as tobacco amaurosis under less than ten years use of the weed; and I have had patients who smoked incessantly for lorty years before the symptoms of tbe eye poisoning became conspicuous ; an mdi cation, of the very slow changes maucea in nerve tissues dv tne long conunueu and everv dav use of the' narcotic. An explanation for this very slow action has not yet been given. As tbe remedies spoken of in this vain Ahl article "are onlv available in the hands of the-phyflician, wTjwJtm The Cause being removed by stopping tbe daily dose of poison, a decided and rapid improvement will take place to the complete recovery of the patient, provid' ed deterioration had not taken place in the ontio nerve.

AThkilling Stobt. Yesterday morn itg as two ladies were preparing their toilet an aocident, of perhaps a serious nature oooarred. The elder lady, was sitting with a cat at her feet. Suddenly, without warning, the animal seized upon one of the lower extremities of the lady and tore the flesh with its teeth and nlawa. Before the younger lady, her daughter, could come to ber assistance thtk wounds inflicted by tbe cat were manv and painful. The young lady bi ded not a moment, but took hold of the enraged animal and pulled it quickly away. The oat infuriated to tigerish an ger, sprang at' her, its tail swollen as larire as a human arm, ana soraicnea ner hand and other parts of her person, be dides feadlv tearing her dress. JL neiffborincf centleman was appealed to for help, and by the aid of the young lady's tight grip on the oat's neck.' and a rinmh bell In the hands of the gentle man,' the furious feline was 'killed. A nhvaician was oalled upon to dress the wounds of . the elder lady, who is afflioted with the erysipelas in tbe tacerated.limb, and whose aafetfy is a1 matter of. anxiety.
