the pulse rises ; sensibility returns to the vertebral column ; 
the expulsion of urine is less frequent and less painful. 
The Cerebral Form of disease constitutes most |com- 
monly the second stage, or that in which confirmed typhoid 
disease sets in in the epizootic form. 
The Abdominal Form is that which goes by the names 
of enteritis , g astro- enteritis, enter o- hepatitis, enter o- peritonitis, &c. 
The Principal Morbid Lesions, which numerous 
autopsies have shown to exist, are — the presence of numerous 
petechiae upon the costal and pulmonary pleurae. The 
parietes of the heart, and the mucous surface of the in- 
testines. These ecchymotic spots occupy a large space in 
the anatomical pathology of Liautard. The laryngeal mem- 
brane is likewise sewn with ulcerations. The liver is gorged 
with blood, and parboiled, as it were. The spleen offers the 
same change of texture. The brain is covered with pete- 
chiae, and throughout the cerebro-spinal system is met with 
vascular arborizations and bloody extravasations. The same 
alterations beset the surface of the bladder, the muscles, the 
cellular tissue, and the lymphatic glands. — Rec. de Med. Vet.,

A horse was purchased by a farmer in this neighbourhood

horses, very poor beasts. A fortnight after the admission of 
this supposed glandered horse, one of these six was taken ill, 
and died in about forty-eight hours. Six days after this 
another was taken ill, and died in about seven or eight days. 
Another was next ill, and died in the same space of time. 
These three horses died within three weeks from the time of 
the newly-purchased animal coming on to the farm. I did 
not see these three horses alive, but received information 
from the farmer and horse-keeper, as follows : — The first 
horse came home from his work exhausted (for two days pre- 
viously he had been dull, and appetite bad, the mouth filled 
with saliva), the legs trembled, and would hardly support the 
body. There was “ choking cough,” and much discharge of
