Ennritobocrogy.] • !Aar *gore' °file .irdti • • l Gazette -urtiteMe; As this Is the season of dan gle' to those suffering from affections of throat and lungs, I propose, with your Permission, -to contribute to your columns a series of plain . . practical letters on. the nature,' causes and treatment of catarrh, bronchitis, asthma, and consumption. In laboring as I have done for past ten years to effect a reform in the treatment of these affections, I have received great assistance from the press In all parts of the United States, and I have reason to believe my. efforts have been not only approved by the public, but by all the philanthropic end lib mil- members of my own prOfeselon. • When, in . 1851, I frit introduced the direct treatment of lung dimeases - by the inhalation ofivarm medicated.vapors, it was the univer sal Make. to pour medicines into the stom ach end to torture the external salts of the chest by tetras, isatesi and tarter emetic and eroton oil postulations. If this Cruel practice had even In &limited degree proved beneficial, . there would have been some reason fortis cot tinuanoe, but what was the fact? Why bron chitis and asthma were among the approbrii strificortisi, and the universal verdict of man- kind had pronounced consumption incurable. Is it not 'strange, then, that any can .be so weak as still to hope for care from a treatment the' universal failure of which produced this very scepticism as to the possibility of curing these diseases by any so means ? Yet, so it ie and we daily Witnee llen intelligent pith:nth, ; treading the same downward road to an tear treble grave, apparently hoping for benefit to to the tut. Now, in , all ehrindo ,diseases of the lungs medicines given by the stomach most fail, for the Simple reason that they do not touch the scat of the malady. In the earlier stages anon suMPtion, and In all caset.of brtinchitis . and asthma, the disease is purely local, being con to the air -tubes andetri-celle. No solid Or liquidmedicines ran reach the affected parte, and I eine:imam proves that: unless they are re had, cure is impossible. And- in this 'vva° diseases -of lungs are not different from those of other parts - We could not cure even a simple chronic ",opthalmia - ' without directmaking application. The advantage, then, which I claim for in halation is that it enables me in the most sim ple and direct manner to apply any medieine rwish to use direotly_te the diseased parts,, It East a double merit, beeausiareedinines inhaled set not only on- the lining membrane of the. air tubes and cells within the lungs, but alio more powerfully upon the blood, than the sattie medicines would if given , by the stomach. It combines all the advantages of a Ices! and ia' constitutionaltreatment, and stains up all that science has yet discovered for the relief of the pulmonary invalid: Indeed, it is not poseible for me , to conceive that the art of medicine can ever add to the efficiency of this treatment beyond the discovery of new medicines to be administered in. the same manner. The wide publicity which the liberality of the press enabled roe to give to these views, at ;last opened the .eyes of the public to the fatal error of practice which . had so long pre vailed, and they began to see that it was not the disease Which was incurable, but the treat ment ehjelf Waif false: The effect was to cut off pretty generally the wholesale use of nos trums by the stomach, and turn the attention of both physicians and patients to inhalation as the only rational method of treatment. What was the consequence T Why, air, with in three years from . my introduction of this system and my , exposure of the old fallacies, the mortality from consumption in the city of New York had diminished thirty per mut, ' being a salvation of more than one thousand 1 liost 4 3 year! . These facts are on record in the City Inspector's °Mee, where they are made up weekly from the returns ofphysicians. 1 I now" desire to see:this Inactice not only 1 universally acknuiviedged and adopted by ids professienal brethren, hut its benefits extend -4 1 ed to the' poor by the establishment of hunt -1 tale for the exclusive treatment of I pulmonary 1 maladies In all the large cities of this country.

The term Easter is of Saxon origin; Mid signifies "rising,' in allusion to the retinra.e tion of our Savior. Early on East4iMoining the primatire Christians sainted Midi. other with : "Christ is risen," which was reep,4ed ed to by : "Christie risen indeed and bath ap peared-to Simon." This .eustom re tained by the GniekChnich. in Ausarly all Christian countries the , recurrence of. Easter is celebrated by valour popular iports turf ceremonies, not unfrequently accompanied by odd superstitions. The most common is the English custom (of doubted origin) of Making presents of colored pasche or peats eggs, which is very ancient. Our Lord's crucifixion occurred on' Friday ; the resurrection therefore took place on the first day of the next week, which from thence is denominated the Lord's Day. The primi tive Christians, in theirdelire to celebrate the anniversary, fell into two different eyatems. Under the Mesabi law, the Jaws celebrated the Passover on the 14th day of the month Abib, or Eisen, that is a day or tie. before the vernal equinox. • The early Christians differed as to the proper time for celebrating the festival and the dispute grew very serious, each party maintaining their respeptive cus toms, until the question was finally settled by adopting-the rule by which easter falls on the first Sunday after the fullLtroion. which happens opener next after March ;lo t, or if the full moan happen on a Sunday; Easter day is the nett Sunday. This Fester May occur as early as March 22d or as late as April 25th. This year we have it on the attest Sun day it could have fallen. Easter is always a season of ,Olyfulness, which is the more worke d from theholemnity and gloom which precede it. The young peo ple in Europe, and on Ole eithrOLitui Atlan tic, often employ Easter and the egsass which follow, in the must careless psalm Flowers are obtained and dispensed amoag sweet hearts, and there is a general disposition of the merriest:interchange.
