A Ely al of quinine.
German medical journals discuss a
new medical agent lately discovered by
Professor Fischer, of Munich. In the
course of a long series of investigations
concerning the nature and action of
quinine, he found that by means of a
series of chemical transformations a
substance can be obtained, in the form
of a white crystalline powder, from coal
tar, which greatly resembles quinine in
its action on the ; human organism.
Fischer has given it the name of
"kairin." The chief effect produced by
it, as yet observed, is the rapid diminu
tion of fever heat, and its efficiency in
this respect is described as remarkable.
It is believed that it will reuder the use
of ice in fever cases unnecessary, and
that its skillful employment will enable
the physician to moderate the
temperature of the patient, Kairin is
also reported to have less inconvenience
tor tne stomach than quinine. But ob
servation does not show as yet, at least
-that it possesses that tonio and restora
tive influence for which quinine is so
frequently administered. , Perhaps,
from a chemical and physiological poiut
of view, the most valuable thing about
the new discovery is that it seems to
bring us nearer to finding out the chem-
ical nature of quinine itself and the true
character of its agency. The discovery
has been patented and a manufactory
of kairin established, under the direc
tion of Professor , Laubenheimer, of
Glesseu. But, as it is said .that the cost
of producing a kilogramme (about 351
ounces) of the new agent is 15, it will
be some time before its patrons can hope
to see it take the place of quinine in
practical pharmacy. WiL, Mail.

dee's Lecture Remarks by Messrs.
. Stamps, C. M. Bnsbee and Ashe.
In tho hall of the House of Commons
last evening there was a large aulience
to hear Col. B. S. Pardee, of Connecti
cut, speak about "Expositions and their
Benefits.0' The "Euterpean Club" were
present,1- having kindly - tendered their
services, and discoursed delightful
music. Mr. W. S. Primrose presided
atthe meeting. At 8 o'clock he intro
duced the orator of the occasion. .
Col, Pardee spoke of the Philadelphia
exposition and the influence it had had
developing and giving an impetus to
manufactures and to art. It had taught
what use might be made of the crude
products, kaolin for instance, which is
found In such anundanca and purity in
North Carolina. The exposition, too,
quickened immigration, that of a desir
able kind, of skilled laborers. The other
expositions have in every case not only
advanced the interest of the places where
they were held, but have had the best
effects upon the States and the country
at large. It is a widening influence,
whose ripple of progress rolls afar. He
graphically sketched the Atlanta expo
sition in its industrial and social fea
tures. It was an awakening to the
people of the North. At that exposition
North Carolina was represented m a
most 'superb style. It was found that
the resources of the State were so vast
and so varied that it afforded all the
crude products necessary to the me
chanical and industrial arts. He spoke
of the place which this gave North Caro
lina in the eyes of. tho people 01 tne
Country, He said that the State had
come to be filled with prospectors.
