account is derived from ulterior experiments, partly published in my

now completely reconciled.

Footnote 1240:

In distilled water containing a 12,000th of anhydrous _arseniate of
soda_ three lead rods weighing 71·235 grains became in thirty-three
days 71·240; in a solution of a 15,000th the lead, though slightly
whitened, retained its weight exactly, weighing at the end, as at the
beginning, of the experiment 62·622 grains. In distilled water
containing a 35,000th of anhydrous _phosphate of soda_, three lead
rods, which weighed together 73·949 grains, became in thirty-two days
73·946; and in a comparative experiment with a solution containing a
27,000th they gained 0·015.

Footnote 1241:

Sometimes, however, a minute trace of white powder is attached to the
bottom of the glass wherever the lead touches it. This is carbonate of
lead at first, and afterwards a mixture like that described in the
text.

Some effect may perhaps be also owing to a difference between the

spring, which has been introduced into the city since Dr. Thomson
resided here, and the proportion in the water with which the city was
at that time supplied, I am not aware, however, of the difference
between them, or that any material difference does exist.

Footnote 1556:

I have taken the liberty of applying this term to an establishment
unique perhaps in the history of the world. The Voirie et Chantier
d’Ecarrissage of Montfaucon, which has existed close to the walls of
Paris for several centuries, is an enclosure of many acres, where the
contents of the necessaries of the city are collected in enormous
pits, and where horses, dogs, and cats are flayed to the amount of
forty or fifty thousand annually. The fat is melted for blowpipe
lamps; the bones are in a great measure burnt on the premises for
fuel; the intestines are made into coarse gut for machinery; the
flesh, blood, and garbage are heaped to putrefy for manure; and in
summer a bed of compost is spread to breed maggots for feeding
poultry. There is no drain. Description cannot convey an idea of the
stench. The committee of the Board of Health, appointed to make
inquiries into the best mode of abating the nuisance, in vain
attempted to penetrate into the place. Yet the workmen and their
families are stout, healthy, and long lived.

Instances of congestive apoplexy thus arising were then quoted. I may
here add a very apposite instance of hemorrhagic apoplexy, occurring
in similar circumstances. Dr. Jennings, an American physician,
mentions the case of a female fifty years of age, who, after a full
meal, tumbled down in a fit of insensibility and immediately expired,
and in whom after death there was found enormous distension of the
stomach with food, an extensive effusion of blood into the central
parts of the brain, and ossification of the cerebral arteries. (London

Repertorium für die Pharmacie, xxxi. 174.—Professor Orfila, in the
last edition of his Toxicologie Gén. [1843, ii. 253], has attacked in
no very measured terms this opinion of Professor Buchner and myself.
But, although he professes to give a literal translation of the
passage above, he has translated it so incorrectly as wholly to
misrepresent our opinion. The close of the paragraph, “chemical
analysis must often fail to detect opium where there could be no doubt
of its _having been administered_ in large quantity,” is rendered into
French by the Parisian Professor in these words,—“l’analyse chimique,
propre à constater l’existence de l’opium, est souvent inutile, même
dans le cas _ou il existe_ une grande quantité de cette
substance,”—which is a very different proposition. Orfila clearly
overrates the utility of the process for detecting opium, both in this
criticism and in his whole observations on the subject, by losing
sight of the tendency of absorption to remove the poison beyond reach.
