From a lati London Paper.
REMEDY FOR BRUISES.
A COACHMAN, in a street in
London, was, by a fuddenjolt,
thrown off his box, and in his tall
his foot fell inio a hollow in the
pavement,which occasioned a sprain,
attended with violent pain, and a
considerable inflammation. A bro
ther whip promised hiin a speedy
cure. He ordered a gallon of por
ter to be simmered in an earthen
reflel, till, when cooled, it became
of the confidence of a plaster. He
spread this plaster on a thin old
glove, and applied it round the an
kle. In three days he mounted his
box, being relieved of the swelling
and pain.
Another perfon,being surrounded
by pick-pockeis, in endeavoring to
save his money, fell down, & struck
one fide of his loins upon a stone
more prominent than the reft of the
pavement. Considerable pain and
swelling were the consequences ;
and next day his back, and the thigh
on that fide, became greatly disco
loured. Having seen thefuccefs of
the porter plaster in the former in
stance, I defiled that the porter
plaster might be applied to part of
the back and thigh, while the other
parts were treated according to art,
that so a comparative experiment
might be made of the effects of each.
The swelling subsided nearly equal
ly in both ; but the pain and the
blackness of flrin went off much soon
er in the parts covered with the
plaster than in the pther parts. Ac
cidents have since afforded me seve
ral instances of similar success at
tending the application oF this plas
ter. Might we not expect that fuc
cers might attend the application of
this plaster in other fixed pains in
various parts of the body ?
As these accidents happened in
London, where porter is the malt li
quor most generally used, the plas
ter was made of it; yet I doubt not
but that other fermented malt-li
quors, used in the fame manner,
might have similar effects.
Where such hurts are frequent,
this plaster may be long kept in.
good condition, jf it is covered with
a little oil to prevent the evapora.-
tion of the fluid particles. S. A.
