If to this be added some isolated eruptions at the end of 
1870 and commencement of 1871, and which really belong 
to the principal invasion, there is a total of 8122 head in 
230 localities. Of these animals 921 died, 2610 were 
killed as diseased, and 4484 as suspected. The amount of 
the losses sustained in the army during the war in France 
is unknown, but the commissariat contractors lost in Ger¬ 
many alone 2104 head. There is no mention of the sheep 
sacrificed, though the number has been somewhat con¬ 
siderable. 
The losses occasioned by the same disease in Alsace-Lor¬ 
raine have been still more severe, for in the department of 
the Bas-Rhin alone the official statement gives 6104 cattle 
and 160 sheep for the period 1870-71, corresponding with 
the invasion of the German troops; and 582 cattle and 944 
sheep for the second period, when the same troops returned. 
The list of indemnities for the Bas-Rhin amounts to 1,622,249 
francs. Zundel believes that for the other two departments 
of the annexed territory—Lorraine and the Haut-Rhin— 
the loss is also very great; in the first, he estimates that 
5000 cattle and more than 3000 sheep, and in the second 
1400 cattle, perished. The indemnity to cover this loss he 
reckons to be one million and a half of francs .—Recueil de

CONTAGIOUS PLEURO-PNEUMONIA IN BAYARIA. 
Since 1867, owing to the very severe measures adopted, 
this disease had almost entirely disappeared from the southern 
part of Bavaria, when, at the commencement of 1872, irrup¬ 
tions of the malady were observed at very brief intervals, 
and it was difficult, often even impossible, to find a clue to
