The following, however, from a distinguished clan in New York, Dr. Nelson, we think mei tritt lied on: "The object of the present c ommunication issta tee ommend a single remedy. cheap and of easy access be the poor, and to caution them against an injurious one in this disease, namely, bleeding, either general or by leeches. In all those eases in which the first class of symptoms prevail, let tho patient smell frequently ist a common salts bottle, (Sims' Aromatic Valet!' e Salts are preferred) and by putting the vial to the mouth to draw a few deep inspirations of volatile mar ter into the lungs. Let this process be repeated two or three times in an hour, and it will give more speedy and greater relief, in all slight cases of the first class than any other remedy, and will be sufficient for a cure. It will also be essentially useful in the severs cases; and those of the class of prostration, a feu drops of amonia, or hartshorn, ought to taken inter nally. A neat way of doing so is to take an old. fash ioned mixture called lac a mmoniaci. However, it is as a local remedy, to act on the disordered surfeit's, that its use is advised. The principles will be recog nized by all physicians versed in molecular organiser Lion, and those who aro 3-cadent in that knowledge may do in that instance as they do in all others --get upon the faith they imbibe."
