Prof. Pasteur's condition became seriously worse on the evening of Friday last. Albuminuria was observed, the heart became very weak, and painful and violent spasms became frequent. About 9 o'clock yesterday morning, Prof. Pasteur's wife asked him whether he suffered much pain. The dying man faintly whispered, "Yes." This was the last word that he uttered. Afterward he was most of the time unconscious.
