caudation

In the meantime, while the daily newspapers of New York are talking over their "Aztec race" the Academy of Sciences at Paris has its grave announcement in a communication from M. de Castelnan, a duplicate of which we find in the Bulletic of the 'Socièté de Geographie respecting the NIAM-NIAMS, a people of Central Africa, to the southwest of the Lake Tchad, a people of whom there have been some scattered rumors before, suggesting to a modern Monboddo a " theory of caudation," in fact a people wearing indisputable natural tails.

The fox, as in the old fable, has lost his tail, and must needs go about now most disinterestedly preaching that everybody else, who find their tails very useful, must submit to de-caudation, and because he has got the gout, must not use the bounties of God in moderation.

In acute cases they are rapidly produced, make scarcely an attempt at development, and die off with rapidity; in schirrus they are formed more slowly, and in much smaller numbers, live longer, and make some attempt at caudation, but they are still farther removed in form from the typical cell of healthy tissues.

To make it a bit easier to follow, each added letter is underlined, and insertions/hydrations/ caudations are parenthesized.

There is no adequate reporting system in use that can afford to treat words otherwise than as Hamlet's mother treated her heart, "cleave them in twain and fling away the basser half;" but in script the "baser half" in variably the final portion, and we get in the sentences of the curt style a jumble of inchoate nouns, paraplegic verbs and amputated adjectives, truncated of their tails and dependent each for its re-caudation on the accurate re-cordation (ahem !) of an equally deficient context.
