tiis urine always apptars of a deep yellow coloiir; in the f?a sickness it is the fame, and ar.d even after it is over, on every occasion of a fqyall, when the agitation of the ves sel becomes greater than ufiial, die fame yellowness returns. In very hot weather, especially if violent exercifeis used; a fiinl- ISr yellowness will beobferved, which shows ,t'nat mere heat and iricreafed motion of the blood is capable of producing a partial dif fufion of the bile, which would in all pro bability become visible on did it not get off by the urine. If, in such a (late any person happens to be infeSled with a vi olent fever, k is not improbable that he might become yellow; though perhaps to form the disease, a certain disposition of the liver is nrcefTary, owing not to Anhnaiculx, or imaginary ifflivia, but to ;he more e vident eaufes of heat, relaxation, and increas ed motion of the blood. Thus, the diffufion- of the bile being a symptom in itfelf accidental and not to be dreided, but in conjunction with the fever, it follows that whatever remedies have been found to cure the fynochus may like wife be fuccefsfully employed in the cure of they el low fever; always regarding the accidental cifeumftances which arise from the moderate q*aantity of bile secreted, which, when thrown in a large quantity rftto the stomach is known to produce extreme ficknsfs, and therefore mufl inere'fe and in a manner dou ble the fiver with which the person is in fe&ed, aftd make it more dangerous than it otberwife would be; and mull likewise re quire a difference of treatment. If then the highest degree of fever, called the plague, hss been cured by blood letting, why should not the fame remedy cure an in ferior degree of fever, though attended with a diffufion of pile throughout the body ? Here is neither quackery nor conjuration ; for we may easily fee why it can do so. In all pestilential diseases, fomcof the humours of the ix'Hy, nr perhaps the whole mass of blocd, is mfefted. By taking away a.large tjiiantitity, the infeftign of course is dimio ifhed ; the blood is soon recruited, and the quantity newly made being prepared from Uninfected materials, the general mass is of a better quality than before. A second bleeding diminifhe* the N infe&ion Hill more, and to on. Thus may any person be con vinced that when a phyfioian orders him to be blooded in the yellow fever, hr proceeds on rational principles, and hemay fafely trult himfelf in his hands. As to the quantity of blood to betaken away ; it mull be deter wined by circumstances of which the phyfi- ; „ cian only c?n judge, and the patient'or 'his : attendants, ought by no means to interfere. 1 To this may be added, that when once a physician has been allowed to begin with any mode of effre, the fame ought to be persevered in, as running from one thing to another in such cases mull certainly be at tended with extreme dang«r Dr. Syden ham gives a remarkable instance of the bad effects of this, in a young man infe&ed with the ylague. He had proscribed his usual remedy of blood-letting, and the patient had submitted to it several times, with manifift advantage. The doftor had infilled that it fhdWia be repeated once more, and h« would ' be out of danger ; but his friends obstinate- 1 t ly refufed ; the doftor allured them his pa tient would die ; theydifregarded his words, ' and the young man died as had been fore- < told. In a late paper we fee i( remarked, < that though some have recovered who have ! lofhblood in the yellow fever, we ought to 1 have been told how many have died under * this practice. Agreed! but even this is not : r fufficient. We ought also to be told how j ~ many nave disobeyed their physicians ; how f many have deceived them ; how many have 1 teized them with injudicious remondranees, and prevented them from afting according 1 to the best of their judgment. \y«re all h these things laid open to pubh'c view, it in r not improbable that we»fliould find numbers d of patients, or rather of their friends and relations, mose justly chargeable with their , deaths than the physicians they emjdfljxjL * By this day's Mail.

Those 1 f the perfous who handed said letters for publics- 1 1 dif- tion, have been instrumental in doing tnore 1 pro injury to the United States than they are 1 lid it aware of; what their views were, it is im- 1 Hate possible to tell—certain it is, that their 1 a vi- publicity is injurious to the honor and inte- 1 it he reds of our cpuntry. The only way for us ; ps to to get reparation for the incalculable sums 1 >f the of which we have been robbed by French ( leu/x, privateers, is to be unanimous among our- 1 ire e- selves in expressing in a dignified manner, < :reaf- the high, sense we to a man entertain of the 1 " n j"ries and wrongs we have fuffered \ ing a from an UN-authorised decree of the v to be French direaory, independent of, and coir- | ( ever, trary to the concurrence and opinion of the been legislative body. With extreme pain do I fe be f«e attempts induflrioufiy making, by inte :y el- reded and avaricious men, to injure their ental country from felfifh motives, whose efforts, r erate in conjutiftion with those of that class of I tfhen men among us, whoaffea to think that the I nach French government, or even any part of it, c and can do no wrong, tend to weaken the exer- n dou- tiong x)f our real patriots for the wrongs d in- and they daily receive from France. I an it I find, from a pemfal of all the Jacobin I . e re- prints throughout the continent, that a cer- | tain been gladly laid hold of, and ' r< ailed has been republifhed with so much avidity, C ing, as to make it more evident that «ur Gallic- a, n in- Americans eagprly seize on every pretext, Ic with to j-rtd/Fy the depredations and robberies in dy ? exercised towards this country by the aban- h, on ; doned part of the French nation.

Howeverinherent itis in the nature Cit a- of republican governments to generate sac- Jof in tions, dill, it is possible for them to avoid rily re making partisans of foreign powers, or lift- con e- ening to the plausibly fatal tales of their but v- agents among 11s. Whatever diversity of the >t opinion may prevail refpedling the principles fliip of our conflitution, the beneficial or prejudi- Caj ic cial effefts of certain laws, or the talents or Gr; 1- patriotism of the be cjiofcn for our Mr, I- representatives ;we cannot too carefully and Ed\ re studiously avoid fuffering our minds to rt- Cha d ceive any bias from the anti-patriotic con- two s, fideration of its being agreeable or disagree- of t h aole to the wishes or intereds ofany particu- Cap lar foreign power, when the welfare and blac is happiness of our own country is intended to Sch it be promoted by any measure adopted by the h our government. But unfortunately for the and e United States, whenever a^law ispropofed, at N t or a candidate held up for public office, the num e firft question aflced is, whether he is friendly and 0 to France or Great Britain, not whether he froir - is a man who loves his country, who is able the d and willing to/promote hur interests at the ter ( expense of his own, or any *foreign power take 1 whatever. The fatal effe£ts of this partiality char e in favor of one nation to the exclusion of all, V 1- others, has unhappily taken too deep root Chai t in the United States, and will continue to„j»fhip - prove a source of evils pregnant with the this , mod: alarming consequences. The history 'of th - of pad ages abounds with examples of the ther 1 hc'rid eftefts of the blind attachment of one of a 1 part of the fame nation to one foreign pow- capt. 1 er, and another part to another "foreign ufc o f power. The iriterpofition of foreigners is, Mori : by such divisions invited, and they never fail at St 1 to avail themselves, by intrigue and corrup tion of the passions and prejudices of a peo- 1 pie who are a prey to those diffentions. The II vile machinations of the agijnts of European been j powers paralize the energy of our gov err- releaj ment, whose strength depends on the unani- on «/ V I e» is arid support of the p?op!e—thiy fo -1 the ment discord—prevent the operation of mea rrom fures evidently calculated to promote the ban- public good—and finally keep us from rising 'r an t0 that independence, powernnd'profperity ■ t0 w hich we are entitled from onr resources orm and situation.

FENNO, In one of your late papers it has been as serted with confidence, that Dr- Rufli used ,'h) mercury only as a purgative in theyellow fe- tht verof 1793. To shew that this aflertion 6>e is wholly without foundation, it is onlynn- w! , ceflary to refer to that gentlemsn's publi cation on the fever of the above year. In t bfc page 288, " I had observed (fays the doc- wli torJHhat all fjich of tay patients as were sal- P u: ivated,by the mercurial purges recovered 111 a few days. This early fnggefted at\ idea k ; R to me that the calomel might b'e applied to C: oth?r purposes than the discharging of bile Pre from the bowels. I ascribed its salutary ef- ' sro fcfts when it salivated in the firft «f the difordtr, to the excitement of inflamma tion and effnfion in the throat diverting them /roro more vital parts of the body. In the Bri second ftsge of the disorder I was lei to* Sch prescribe it as a stimulant, and with a vfew ?, of obtaining this operation from it, I aimed at exciting a salivation as speedily as p&flible in 'allcafes." The docontinues to ob fcrve that ,he wa; led to the use of this rc- A medy (mercury) in the cure of the yellow " fever, f%m his own observation, and from 4-a! that of ctbe'rs. . c 5?. Ir. the month of Qftober 1789, he etir<;d a gentleman of i bilious fever by falivatin h«n, and he had found another precedent «or a salivation in a fever, in Dr. Haller's short account of the works of Du. Cramer. He nweover adds that the propriety of tl e - praftict received support, from the accomr. s _ which Dr. Clarke h:id Ijtely given of the • i illqeefsful use of mercury in the dysentery. Ir, 1 n a^ertec * ,n your paper that I -Ur. Kulh did not bleed in the yellow feviS -of 1793, till after iK? 10th of September. one > "ho lias read the doftor's pub 'cat,"n on the disease, must be that this aJTertion is equally ungrounded. He lied in the disease as early ag the 6th of Au. gust. See page B._Thus, Mr. Fenno, it clearly appears, that Dr. Rufli, in the yel ■ t low fever of 1793' not only gave mercury as a purge, but to produce a salivation ; and that he bled in that fever on the iixth of Augtift, instead of about the loth of Sept. The credit of introducing in our city these remedies in the cure of the present disease ft due to him alone. Attempts have been tpade -to refer their introduction to other gentlemen of the faculty ; bus these at t. tempts will prove abortive ; for they have iprung from a spirit of falfehood Snd calum ny. And to fay that »his gentleman intro duced blood-letting and calomel in the cure oi the yellow fever at Philadelphia, is only noticing a ftnall portion of his tnedic3l fer-' vices. By his industry and ingenuity he has n> ffrly a total revolution in medicine. His principles appear to be founded on truth ; and not only embrace new views of •_ yellow fever, but of diteafes in general. J In spite df envy and malice, in spite of Eu ropean books, and universities, these princi ples are daily gaining groynd.i They.have been adopted by many eminent physicians in ~ t! ? e United States, by some ih th,-' Weil-In- | dies, and by some in Europe. And when | it is coqfidered that-they have condufted "to 9 more fuccefsful pra&ice, and that they ' have spread with rapidity in different parts or the world, may we not venture to ep tertaia the opinion, an opinion not improb (s a,ble, or extravagant, that their adoption *yill be finally universal ? The following extra#, from Dr. Chif holm's work on the malignant pestilential fe + ver which lately prevailed in the Weft-Indies, will throw light on Dr. Rulh's character as a physician and a man, and confirm the be lief, that he is entitled to the credit of in | troducing mercury in this city in the cure jof the yellow fever. " Since my arrival in I England, I have had peculiar fatisfaftion m , finding that a treatment nearly similar to the , above * had beeii adopted with great success in the malignant pestilential fever, which so • p lately prevailed at Philadelphia during the autumn of 1793. Dr. Rush's medical tal ents and merit are too well known and too ' generally acknowledged to require the fee • ble efforts of my jjen to extol them. If a _ nv thing, however, could add to the excel ' ' enc e of thit gentlemanls chara&er, it must be his benevolent exertion, and unwearied perfererance during the existence of this dreadful calamity, in relieving his kelplefs and affljdled feflow-cjtizens, and in pnrfuing the mercurial mode of treatment, with the weight of prejudice and malignity in oppofu - tion to him.v Such fortitude is rarely met with in the medical profeflion ; and when j it is, it must secure our admiration and res- P ? &.
