Abstract
THERE has lately been much correspondence upon the subject of a disease affecting the scales of the salmon, and I chanced to come upon the passage which I inclose to you in an old book, the fly-leaf of which bears the autograph of a Duke of Richmond, the one, I imagine, who was at Brussels in 1815. I am not a scientific naturalist, and it is quite possible that this passage is familiar to those who are conversant with such subjects; but thinking it better to err on the side of superfluity than that of carelessness, I trouble you with it.
