If is only necessary to observe, with reference to the preceding articles, that the fact is made definite and clear by them that, not only are the proceedings described altogether disbelieved in by an iraportaut section of completely capable men in France, but that a reaction and protest are rapidly gaining strength against those proceedings, among M. Pasteur's own fellow-countrymen. SUBSEQUENT EEFERENCES TO EABIES AND HYDROPHOBIA. So profuse have been the references made by correspondents of daily newspapers, and others, to the subject of Inoculation of animals and human beings for rabies and hydrophobia, that a not inconsiderable literature has accumulated since the text of this brochure was struck off by the printer. Naturally my desire is, having taken that subject in hand, to continue my investigation of it as fully as possible, and down to the latest date that I can ; hence it is that I have selected from such journals as have come within my grasp, the particulars contained in the following paragraphs. How far the supplimental matter thus adduced will tend to inspire confidence or mistrust and doubt in the efficacy of that particular mode of ''treatment as applied to the cases of the diseases in question, must be left to be determined by individual readers each for himself. I myself have no doubt as to my own interpretation.
