1838656841838. Notiz. Geb. Nat. Heilk. 2 99. - Weimar Landes-Industrie-Comptoir Januar Februar 1838 4° Sp.161-176 feine Broschur. Erstdruck! "Henle hatte die Epithelien untersucht und prägte dabei die heute noch geläufigen Begriffe wie Zylinderepithel Pflasterepithel und Flimmerepithel. Dabei gelang ihm eine Entdeckung die für die Homologisierung pflanzlicher und tierischer Zellen wichtig werden sollte. Man hatte nämlich bislang geglaubt dass sich pflanzliche und tierische Gewebe in ihrem Wachstum grundsätzlich voneinander unterscheiden. Dieses sollte bei den Tieren nur unter Vermittlung der Blutgefäße möglich sein während Pflanzen ein davon unabhängiges selbständiges Wachstum zeigten. Henle fand nun dass die Zellen in der tierischen und menschlichen Oberhaut von unten nach oben ohne Vermittlung von Blutgefäßen größer werden. Das ermöglichte SCHACHT zu der Feststellung dass es offensichtlich keinen prinzipiellen Unterschied beim Wachstum zwischen menschlichen tierischen und pflanzlichen Zellen gibt."

1862006525Paris: J. Techener 1862 8vo 23.5 cm 4 XVI 406 2 pp. Untrimmed in near contemporary cloth gilt-lettered spine browning of paper of free endpapers few pencil notes bookplate mounted on the front paste-down. A catalog of the library of the Abbey of Saint-Victor in Marseille edited by François Rabelais. This esteemed library was dispersed at the close of the 16th century. "It is not only in the catalog of the Saint-Victor library that Rabelais reveals himself as a refined and ingenious bibliographer; his quintessential work Gargantua and Pantagruel deserves examination from the perspective of the scattered bibliographic information found within. His library which has left more traces than one might suppose will soon regain a kind of existence in a notice where we hope to demonstrate that Rabelais was not only a good bibliographer but also a sincere bibliophile." from the Preface. The work is supplemented by "Essai sur les bibliothèques imaginaires" by Gustave Brunet which includes the catalog of the fictional library of Fortsas and Brunet's letter to Paul Lacroix. J.

Etowah was located just north of Cartersville Georgia in former Cass County. The Iron Works were destroyed by the Union Army in 1864 and after the War the area remained in ruins. <br /> <br /> From from the Dictionary of North Carolina Biography 6 volumes edited by William S. Powell:<br /> <br /> "Moses Stroup the eldest son of Jacob was born in Lincoln County N.C. With little formal schooling he was brought up in the iron business. Many contemporaries considered him to be one of the "most expert furnacemen" in the South and a "remarkable genius" in the iron business as well as a good money-maker but a "poor keeper." He accompanied his father to South Carolina about 1815 and when Jacob moved to Georgia in the late 1820s Moses stayed behind. But in 1843 he joined his father at Cass County Ga. and bought him out. Moses built a rolling mill and rolled some of the first railroad iron made in Georgia some of which was used on the state-owned Western and Atlantic. In 1847 he sold the Cass County works to Mark Anthony Cooper and Company and shortly moved to Alabama where he bought ore lands from the government and began the Round Mountain Furnace in 1849". <br /> <br /> From wikipedia:<br /> <br /> Bartow County was created from the Cherokee lands of the Cherokee County territory on December 3 1832 and named Cass County after General Lewis Cass 1782–1866 Secretary of War under President Andrew Jackson Minister to France and Secretary of State under President James Buchanan3 who was instrumental in the removal of Native Americans from the area. However the county was renamed on December 6 1861 in honor of Francis S. Bartow because of Cass's support of the Union4 even though Bartow never visited in the county living 200 miles 320 km away near Savannah all of his life. Cass had supported the doctrine of popular sovereignty the right of each state to determine its own laws independently of the Federal government the platform of conservative Southerners who removed his name. The first county seat was at Cassville but after the burning of the county courthouse and the Sherman Occupation the seat moved to Cartersville where it remains. n.p. unknown
