ITALIAN REVIEW. 
Diagnosis of Glanders made with Mallein Con¬ 
firmed by Inoculation. —This case is recorded in the Clinica 
Veterinarian and related to a horse ten years old, which had a 
discharge on the right side, with a very small gland of the max¬ 
illary space and some dyspnoea. At first appearance the case 
was considered as one of simple catarrh of the frontal sinuses, 
perhaps of a chronic nature, and the animal was submitted to a 
tonic treatment with nasal injections of astringent and antiseptic 
solutions. Some temporary improvement was at first observed, 
but not sufficiently marked to justify great hopes of recovery, 
and on account of the purulent aspect of the discharge the 
animal was submitted to the test of mallein. The average tem¬ 
perature had been some 37.8 C. (about 98 F.) for two days before 
testing. After the injection it rose to 40.4 to 41.1, and reached 
41.2 (near 106 F.). The animal presented all the manifesta¬ 
tions of local and general reaction. The diagnosis was decided, 
—the animal had glanders. For more certainty it was decided 
to inoculate a donkey. This was done on the septum of an old 
animal, which in a few days developed a well-marked case of 
acute glanders. At the post-mortem of the horse lesions of 
the nasal mucous membrane were discovered, which were not 
visible during life,—also pulmonary lesions of undeniable 
nature. 
Male Internal Pseudo-Hermaphrodism. —We read of 
this in the Clinica Veterinarian which was that of a young 
ruminant which, while being deprived of testicular envelopes 
and inguinal canal, had all the characters of a male. At the 
post-mortem, there was found a uterus and vagina, well in pro¬ 
portion with the size of the animal, situated in the same posi¬ 
tion as in a female and having the same anatomical relations, 
but the vagina ended in a cul-de-saCn on a level with the neck of 
the bladder. An incision made upon this exhibited the orifice 
of the uterus, whose cavity was continued, without well-defined 
marks, with the vagina, and was full of mucous. The horns 
and the Fallopian tubes were well developed. There were no 
ovaries, but in their place two testicles, whose efferens canals 
ran a course inverse to that of the Fallopian tubes and ended 
near the corresponding horn. The vesicuke seminalse were not
