Prof. Zuill has, therefore, in translating the French edition, 
with the notes which were added to it, done a good thin & 
towards advancing veterinary education in this country. Up to 
date, Williams’ Practice of Veterinary Medicine has been the 
standard work of many of our veterinarians, and of our Ameri¬ 
can schools. The work of Prof. Zuill enters the arena for pro¬ 
fessional usefulness, and we feel that he will have no regret for 
having done it, as we are confident that the work will meet with 
the same reception that it did in Germany and in France. We 
will all welcome the work of Prof. Zuill and derive, we are 
sure, much profit and pleasure in reading it. 
MALLEINE.—Its Uses.— In several of the preceding num¬ 
bers of the Review, we have presented to our readers articles 
concerning the use of malleine in the diagnosis of glanders, in 
which we "have endeavored to call the attention of veterinarians 
to the value of the Russian discovery, and it was with great in¬ 
terest that we read the long article of Prof. Harger in one of 
tne last numbers of the Veterinary Magazine , relating a series o 
experiments which he had carried on, and of observations he 
had gathered at the clinics of the Veterinary Department of the 
University of Pennsylvania. If with these we recall the first ar¬ 
ticle of Prof. Kilborne, presented to the Chicago meeting of the 
United States Veterinary Medical Association, it was justifiable 
to expect that American veterinarians would be eager to bring 
malleine into practice, and ask of it the results that it has given 
to others. And yet, if we are to judge by what is recorded in 
our journals, it seems that our efforts have been made in vain. 
In our next number we intend to publish two more articles 
on the subject, one from the pen of Prof. Nocard, and one from 
a paper presented to the congress held lately m Buda Pest. 
These, we hope, will bring our colleagues to their senses, and 
will convince them that in malleine they have a powerful detec¬ 
tive, which, we believe, does not fail in its application, and 
which they can no longer ignore. 
The facility with which malleine can be obtained at Wash-
