First International Congress on Tuberculosis.— Initiated by a veteri 
narian, it is organized by Prof. Yerneuil-its importance-gathering of scientists, 
comparative pathologists, physicians and veterinarians—almost all Europe repre¬ 
sented—even the United States—veterinarians for the first time are admitted to 
equal rights—admission made by Prof. Yerneuil—Chauveau is the President of 
of the Congress—a compliment to the profession he represents as well as to the 
scientists—veterinarians of France can realize the advantages of this recognition 
—thanks to the veterinary profession by Prof. Yerneuil—the reports of the Con¬

this is of great value assisting in a positive pathological diagnosis—it is harm¬ 
less—the larynx is no more terra incognita. Antirabic Inoculation of Her¬ 
bivorous Animals.— Pasteur’s investigations followed by others—Prof. Galtier, 
of the Lyons school, one of the first—his labors and achievements cannot be 
ignored Pasteur’s treatment objectionable and difficult to the ordinary prac¬ 
titioner—intra-venous injection is simple—and as certain—the experiments of 
altier confirmed at the Pasteur Institute—all veterinarians ought to try it_ 
good results obtained—it will protect all ruminants—perhaps the horse—experi¬ 
ments to be made. Our Prize.— We are prepared to fulfil our engagements—let
