CONSUMPTION—ITS Tit EATM T.—:Co. 4.— To rite
Editor of The Press : Dr. J. D. Durkin's remarks on
Consumption and its abusive treatment.
n the early stages of Consumption all species are
rumble except the initammatc4 that destroys lira in
less than three menthe, and fairly bids defiance to all
medical treatment, and which le termed Quick Con
sumption, which marks its fatal termination from the
commencement. if the symptoms of Consumption could
be clearly detected while in the first and second stages,
its ravages could be easily checked and completely
c trod by the application of suitable soothing remedies,
before it advances to the third stage, when not one in a
thousand can be restored From the grasp of death, when
it has et limed a complication of alarming symptoms, as
described under that head ; and the fatal results are to
be observed by the simplest observer. This is the stage
that removes the veil from the eyes of the physician,
and exposer lain cilininal neglect.
ft is at this unfortunate time that the patient and
frieuas are aware of his doubtful condition, and would
give tile world to be once mere restored to health. But,
alas it is too late; the golden opportunity is lost in
the two former stages. This is the moment when the
bungling physician's doubt is removed, and he says the
disease must be hereditary, and coneequently ineura.
Ide—that the patient must die. What satiettetion this
is for the family and friends, after being treated per
haps fur six or eight months by this pretender of an M.
D. ! This is the period that the patient, friends and
physician are convinced of tile fatality of Consumption,
and the impossibility of curing it in consequence of not
taking early steps to cheek it while there was some re
maining strength. It is singular, but true, that in the
simplest and most curable species of consumption, if the
constitution falls, all is l=at ; the chief object to be kept
in view is to toothe the irritation and brace the system;
short of that, the physician and patient are defeated,
The great error with medical men is, they cannot see
the disease while it is budding, that is to say, while it
is progressing throne the lint and second stages. This
was the moment that should excite the mind of both the
patient and physician to action, in order to check that
dreadful scourge in its infancy. This is the reason that
the word Consumption is so frightful iu our ears,
through a neglect in arresting It at au early period,
through the imbecility and pretension of those M. D's.
.all your readers had parents, brothers sisters, and
neighbors who died of Consumption—nay, even dearer
mill, sons and daughters—and why can't you see the
cause, and tale warning from what you have seen? You
continue t hack, hawk, and cough. Your expectora
tion is of a foamy, frothy, or whitish phlgem, and as
the disease advancee, it becomes yellow pus or matter.
You have suffered from a confined condition of the bow
els for years ; by-and-by there is a derangement of the
liver, organs, and functions of the stomach ; there is a
susceptibility of catching cold by the slightest expo
sure, attended with this hawing from the throat, which
gradually penetrates to the upper clavicles of the lungs,
and soon terminates your existence. Physicians and
patients see the fatal results, but why can't they see the
cause that gives rise to this blighting disease, and reme
dy the evil in the bud. This is the point worthy of at
tention. Seldom the sufferer Is apprhensive of his Un
tie, until there le a sough, met scarcely thou, till he
finds himself failing rapidly in flesh and strength. But
what produces thin cough that is se aggravating in the
throat'' The patient has contracted cold frequently in
early life, and it missed away without further noticed
but this time there is as alarming appearance, caused
by the neglect of regulating or circulating the blood,
until the poisonous matter that should be passed by the
bowels in years back Lae been brought in contact with
that vital Mild upon which Cepended our existence.
From this corroded condition of the blood arises the
frequency of catching cold by inhaling the fresh air by
our nostrils and mouth, by the breathing operation,
which intermixes with this corrupted and adulterated
blood, congealing end causing phlegm, which oppresses
the respiratory or breathing organs, which give rise to
cough. This cough is the effort of nature to throw off
the yoke of disease. It cannot be disputed that while
the matter is permitted to clog or accumulate in the
lungs, the sufferer must sink. This effort of nature
should be assisted by the application of soothing and
bracing remedies, to dissolve this congealed corruption,
which excites coughing, mall have 11, tendency to nourish
the lungs and bronchial Dame. From the present the
patient is aroused to a sense of feeling through this
short, hacking cough, with an inflamed condition of the
threat; the patient applies for aid, but in the wrong
direction, and after exhausting the science and skill of
a certain class of medical men, and after pocketing
large fees from their duped patients, the last and only
they recommend is cod-liver oil, which is the most
spurious and adulterated article bearing the name of
medicine—a worthless, nauseating nostrum, whirl, I
could not conscientiously recommend to be given to my
dog, should I value his life. This filthy mixture does '
not contain five drops to the quart of the genuine cod
liver oil.
What wonder that Consumption makes such havoc in
the hands of such imbeciles ! It is through these pra
tenders sprung the delusive and erroneous idea that
Consumption was incurable. Certainly, while treated
by cod-liver oil, calome!, antimony, morphine, and opi•
um, the sufferer was doomed to a Consumptive'e grave,
but while the suffering public depends on this certain
class of men, so long must this sacrifice of life continue
to exist. If medical men are possessed of ecientilc at•
tainmente, as the old school pretend to, why do they
not prepare their own remedies to act according to those
great pretensions, in order to restore the consumptive
from the conch of suffering and pain ; but, no, this
would be deviating from the old routine. They would
sooner sacrifice the lives of thousands of their nearest
and dearest relatives rather than relinquish one iota of
their early duplicity. Hence they will scrape down, in
bad Latin—to dupe their patient and prove their own
lguorance—a prescription, a hocus-pocus, or some
thing, and depend on the exertions and competency of
an apothecary, who never studied the nature nor es
sence of disease, and who knows no more about the de
bilitating and deadly effects of what he is dispensing,
but lase than the patient himself. What an absurdity!
So ninth for the old confederacy. This is how life is
daily sacrificed by the enlightened regulars, as they
are termed. Will the public longer confide in such
conceited life-destroyers ? Where is the situation that
man is placed in that requires so much attention and
discerning qualities, and involves such responsibility
What is more noble in a physician than to have clear
views in a. disease he represents ! In order to speak
eandidly—whatever will be the results—should he ex
pect public confidence
I have treated consumption in every modification of
Its ravages for several years, and have marked its pro
gress through its different species and its various treat
ment, and 1 speak from a practical observation, that in
all curable species, I can check its progress in three
weeks, and if not, it must prove fatal in any case.
When I should expect the salutary results of my treat
ment, in that limited time, it will be marked by partial
relief in lees than twenty-four hours after commencing,
and all along in the same proportion until completely
cured,
I remain, respectfully, &a.,
J. D. DURKIN,
Chronic and Consumptive Physician
Can ba consulted at his Office, No. 12.3 8. THIRD
street, opposite the Girard Bank, Philadelphia.
No patient treated longer than three weeks, unless
there ifs ample benefit derived.
TEMPERANCE ANNIVERSARY MEETING. The
Youth's Temperance Society of the first Independent
Church (Rev. John Chambers's) will hold their Eight
eenth Anniversary this (Monday) evening, at Concert
Hall. Chestnut street, above Twelfth. The exercises
of these yearly festivals are usually of a most interest
ing character. After the recitations have been heard,
and the premiums presented, the Pastor, Her. Mr.
Chambers, will deliver an Address aypropriate to the
occa,ion. For " Ticket" arrangements see adverfse
ment in another column.
NOVELTY, tor the most part, is simply what we
recover from oblivion. We can fish little out of the
river Lethe that has not first been thrown into it. The
world of discovery goes round without advancing, like
a squirrel in its cage, and the revolution of one coun
try differs little from that of its predecessors. New
performers in new dresses meant the stage, but the
piece and its accompaniments, remain pretty mush the
same, people going as usual to the fashionable empori
um of Clifton, Albright, & Co., Jayne's Hall . , No. 627
Chestnut street, to buy their clothes.

the Twentieth ward, was called to the Chair, and JOHN
McMAKeN. of the Sixth ward, was appointed Secretary.
The following named gentlemen were duly author
ized to receive contributions in aid of such Ward or

to relieve the wants of many suffering persons at this
tone out of employ :

The following statement exhibits the number of
families, and members thereof, in the Sixteenth, Seven
teenth. Ilighteenth, and Nineteenth wards. The same
amount of destitution is also existing In the four South
ern, and that of the Twenty-first wards, not embraced
in this statement, viz : 3,1P8 families, averaging four
to each family, making au aggregate of 12,784 souls, all
of whom are in a very destitute and suffering condition,
and unless aid can be procured outside of their respect
lye wards, their suffering must be beyond all e adurance,
as all means contributed within their own borders have
been expended in relieving their wants thus far. We
trust that a benevolent public will contribute with that
ewe liberality manifested upon previous ocesSions,
viz: The sufferers of Ireland, the great fires of New
York and Pittsburgh, &c. We. therefore, feel assured
that this appeal will not be in vain in behalf of the suf
